DIOCESAN CONFERENCES.

DIOCESAN CONFERENCES. THEIR VALUE. IN the Oxford Diocesan Magazine for October, the Bishop, Dr. Burge, has somettung to say upon the value of dio- cesan conferences. He writes — I have never been able to regard the diocesan conference merely as the meet- ing of ',a debating society,' though it is too often spoken and thought of as such by those outside it, and. nojt less by members themselves. It is one, if not at preteent the only, direct way in which the diocese can express itself, and the Bishop is able to discover the mind of the diocese. Certainly during the past eight years I have learnt to value more and more, if possible, the opportunity which the conference offers, and I am certain that Southwark was by no means exceptional in finding that even general discussions were both significant in themselves and also led to practical and fruitful res;ults. It is quite possible that we may be able to devise or to recover means of learning and ex- pressing the mind of a diocese with more binding authority, but I doubt whether we shall value even these or take them seriously, if we have formed the habit of depreciating or slighting the means we have already devised. Far. more vital, it appears to me, than the new machinery and organisation we create for reforming Church life and strength- ening Church work is the temper and frame of mind in which we set ourselves to work the new machinery; that will be determined largely by the habit of mind and the temper we have already been forming. I do not say this in a spirit of discouragement: on the con- trary, I am greatly encouraged by the evidently increasing desire for reality, which is moving us in all directions."

UNIVERSITY OF. LONDON. EXTENSION LECTURES. THE programme of University Extension Lectures for the coming session lias now been issued by the University of London. Central course's are to be held in the Uni- versity buildings, amd in the city, while local course?, at some sixty local centres in and around London, will prove of in- estimable value to the student in the suburbs. The subjeets treated cover a wide range, tlnd literature, history, science, painting, architecture, music and economics are ail well represented. A very attractive literary series will be held at Greeham College, Baainghali- street, on Tuesday evenings at 7.30 on Andent and Medieval Literature. n The course is designed to afford a oomprehen- taive view of the chief literatures which lie at the foundations of European civilisa- tion, in their origins, chief types, develop- m-ent, ■_ interrelations and characteristic power. The first four leotures deal with the Hebraic ocntribution;, the next twelve with the Greek; and the next four with the Latin; and the final four ehow how the Hebrew, Greek and Roman streams, cf thought and literary expression meet in Dante, at once the leading representative of mediaeval culture and the morning star of modern enlightenment. Emphasis is laid on the significance of the Hehraie, element, in the belief that the value of this factor is often under-estimated. The ) influence of the Ancient upon English literature is illustrated throughout, and the course provides material -as well for I the student of English as of general litera- ture. t This course may be taken as the first year's, work of a course of study for the University Diploma of Literature.
THE COMMON GOOD.

THE COMMON GOOD. CAPITAL AND LABOUR. AT a reception to the members of the Carlisle Y.M.C.A., to inaugurate the autumn session, Canon Rawnsley, presi- dent, speaking for Brotherhood, said the hope of our industrial future was that men and masters alike should not only feel they were workers together for the common good, but that each was ab- solutely needful to the other. Brains and ftands must be much more closely allied than in the past if we5 were to bridge the awful gulf of bankruptcy and disaster that was ahead of us There would have been no railway strike if there had, been trust between man, and man and between people and Ministers. He could sympathise with this lack of trust.. It had good reason for its exist- ence in the past, but the temper of the time was marvellously altered, and there w a i on every hand a desire that labour should henceforth have its just reward.

THE GOLÐEN ERA, THE REV. V. L.

A GREAT RECORD. ,-

A GREAT RECORD. CIRCULATING THE WORD. ONCE more we have before us the an- nual report of the British and Foreign Bible Society. This time it is the hundred and fifteenth report. There is no need to sing the praises of the Society's work—its work is known practically all over the world. Sufficient is contained in the words of the Bishop of Gippsland to show how the society and its works are known. The Bishop, speaking in Aus- tralia last August, said as a missionary in India I formed the opinion that there are two words better known in that great country than any other two words. Those two words are 'Jesus Christ.' But the next two words which, in my opinion, are best known are ( Bible Society.' They have become vernacular words in every vernacular in India, and in all the great cities the,nativesare keen to go and see the Bible Society, because they realise what a wonderful friendship it brings to them from the peoples on the other side of the earth." So much for India. Much the same could be asserted for other parts of the earth. The report says that its humble agents, the Chris- tian colporteurs, are found in almost all countries, carrying their cheap, little books from village to village and from door to door. What a wide vista of activ- ity opens out before the mind when it re- flects upon a sentence like that! A few figures may be useful to give here. The Society's issues now to be reported for the year 1918-19 have amounted to 8,746,963 copies of the Scriptures. This figure falls 340,000 below the total of the previous year, and is less than any total since 1913. Complete Bibles numbered only 692,594 —a smaller number than usual-this being largely due to the difficulty of pro- duction. New Testaments numbered 1,311,163-a quarter of a million fewer than in the previous year, but 36,000 more than in the year before the war. Smaller portions of Scripture numbered 6,743,206—360,000 fewer than in the pre- vious year, yet 66,000 more than in the year before the war. In face of the dis- location and distress of the world, we need feel no surprise at such figures, says the report. There, have been no returns from Russia and Siberia, where the Society disposed of newly 600,000 volumes before the war.' WiUa the opening of the present year, which marks a now era for mankind, the Bible Society's circulation, since it was founded in 1804, had reached the astonishing total of three hundred million volumes—each volume being a Bible, or a Testament, or at least one book of Holy Scripture. For the purpose of illustrating addresses to children and young people the Bible Society's annual report contains numerous stories whose use should prove of incalculable value.

A STERLING WORKER. NEW BRISLINGTON VICAR. AT the induction of the Rev. H. S. iUrch, as vicar of St. Anne's, Brisling- ton, Bristol, there was a numerous con- gregation. In an a^dreft the Arch- deacon of Bath spoke of the magnificent- work done in the pariah by the Rev. C. G. Poynder, who has left the parish for Great Baxton, Huntingdonshire. There was not one, said the Archdeacon, who did not regret his departure. Re- ferring to the new vicar, he stated that he oame from Taunton. Ho was linked with Taunton not only by his work, but by the fact that his wife hailed from that town. An old friend of the Arch- deacon's with whom Mr. Urch had worked there had told him of his sterling work | and how entirely the congregation of i St. Mary's, Taunton, appreciated his labours. He appealed to the congrega- tion to give their new vicar every possi- ble assistance so that they might work together in true Christian fellowship. With the Archdeacon la t the service were Prebendary Holts and other clergy.
