AGAINST BIG ODDS.
CHURCHES IN ENGLAND. (Special to the "Guardian.") AUCKLAND, October 27. "The churches are alive and active but they are up against big odds," said the Rev. John Miller, a Presbyterian minister, now retired, but formerly of St. Giles, Papanui, who, with his wife, returned by the Itangitiki this morning from an eight months' health holiday in England. Mr Miller was the Dominion representative of his Church at the annual General Assembly. In Edinburgh and London he gave an address on the life and work of the Church in the'Dominion. Mr Miller explained what he meant by big odds "Hiking, wireless, the motor-car and particularly week-ending were a formidable array," he said. "The Church will have to advance to meet them in some way, but how I do not know."
