YOUTH RALLY
FACING WORLD CONDITIONS
St. Paul's Pro-Cathedral was filled yesterday afternoon for a Youth Campaign Commission Rally. Many Wellington parishes were represented by Bible classes and there were teams from Masterton and Wanganui. Teams selected to do special work in parishes were commissioned at the serviwj. The Rt. Rev. H. St. Barbe Holland, Bishop of Wellington, who was to have conducted the service, was unable to appear, as he had not fully recovered after a motor accident on Anzac Day. Archdeacon Bullock expressed his regret at Bishop Holland's absence. Addressing the assembled youth, Archdeacon Bullock emphasised the importance of facing up to the challenge offered by the world's. present conditions. "However the challenge comes, and every young man and woman knows that it will come, he or she will have to face up to it one way or another," he said. "And when it has been faced the individual will either go on towards God or down away from Him." He stressed the urgency for true and steadfast belief among young people, and concluded his address with a quotation, "Do not think of how you look to other peopl# but only of how you look to God.'
During the service Miss L. Wright, Lower Hutt, sang a solo.
