WIRELESS IN CHURCH
The outcry raised in England and in Scotland against the practice of broadcasting divine services is being reechoed in Sydney,, on the ground that it duninishes greatly attendance at the bunday evening services, and that it provides men and also women with another argument why they don't go to church. 8f Mark's, Darling Point, one of Sydney's most fashionable churches in one of its most aristocratic quarters, has been broadcasting its services for some time now, along with a few other churches of less circumstance, in a worldy sense. Now there is •an outcry against the practice, but the protest has revealed that wireless in church has its protagonists as well as opponents The Rev. R. N. Baker, M.A., a prominent Anglican minister, says the church can no more escape the influence of wireless than can tho rest of the community. A little thought, he says, would show that tho falling-off at church would not be a sufficient reason to make it oppose the new venture.
