SCOPE FOR NATIVE MISSIONARIES.
AUCKLAND, Sept. 5. The Rev. H. A. Hawkins leaves tomorrow by the Southern Cross for a long Islands' cruise, the purpose being to see whether an educated Maori is likely to -prove successful in church mission . work among certain archipelagoes of the Western Pacific. The Melanesian Society have within their sphere numerous islands entirely peopled by Polynesians, and it is recognised that the Maori is blood-kind to these people, and that those young men who have been trained for evangelistic work in the church colleges of New Zealand might find a wide scope for their energies among them. Mr Hawkins expects to' be away some months.
