CHURCH IN SCOTLAND

YOUNG NEW ZEALANDER

BACK

Although he feels that the time is past when everyone is a member of the Church in Scotland, the Rev. Alan Brash, who returned to Wellington by the Remuera today, does not consider this to represent a serious loss. On the contrary, he said in a short interview, his opinion is that the Church has gained as a result, because those who were members of the Church were exceedingly keen.

Mr. Brash, whose parents are Mr. and Mrs. T. C. Brash, well-known residents of Wellington, has spent three years in Edinburgh, where he completed his theological course and took his B.D. degree with distinction. He was first in theology in Edinburgh and third for the whole of Scotland, and was assistant minister at Lockhart Memorial Church, Edinburgh.

Mr. Brash referred to the great slum clearance movement in Britain and their replaceriient by modern flats, and he spoke also of the warm hospitality he had experienced during his sojourn in Scotland. "I have never experienced anything like it anywhere else," he said.

Mr. Brash has been called to St Andrew's Church, Wanganui.
