MONEY COMING IN.
PRESBYTERIAN CAMPAIGN. START OF SECOND STAGE. The second stage of the campaign of the Presbyterian Church of New Zealand to raise £300.000 as a centenary thanksgiving fund was begun with a meeting last night at St. David's Church, the Rev. G. A.

Harbutt, who said that the majority of congregations through-, out the country had thrown themselves heart and soul into the scheme and some had already raised more than their quota. Mr. Harbutt said he believed that £200,000 would be raised by the end of June. Donations or promises now neared that total, while of the £29.000 expected from Auckland, £24,223 had been obtained.
"The Romance of .the Presbyterian Church in England" was the subject of an address during the evening by the Rev. Dr. ft. C. Gillie.
