The representation of contributing bodies on the Technical Education Board was the subject of discussion at the meeting of the Wellington Board (reports the Dominion). Members objected to the new regulations, limiting the number •of members of the board to fifteen, and depriving certain bodies of representation. The effect of the change, it was stated, would be to reduce public interest in technical education, and possibly deprive the board of some financial support. The board decided to interview the new Minister -of Education, and urge upon him tlte •desirability of increasing the number of members. It was stated that a conference of representatives of technical -education boards and directors of technical schools would be held in Wellington on September 10. Reference to the men of H.M.S. New Zealand was made by Mr T. M. Wilford, M.P., in the course of his address at the annual meeting of the' ■Sailors' Friend Society in Wellington. "The behaviour of these men as far as I have noticed it in passing through the streets is a credit," said Mr Wilford. "It is absolutely something that all public men should" admire, and I have to commepd every one of the men for the way in which they have conducted themselves since they have been in Wellington." (Applause.) r Bishop Julius thoroughly agrees with Kipling's pronouncement * that "The Colonel's lady and Bridget O'Grady are sisters under their skins." Speaking at Everybody's Theatre (says a Christchurch paper), he remarked that the difference between capitalist and labor leader was, like beauty, only skin deep. "Let the capitalist only lose his capital and he becomes a labor leader," he said, "and when the labor | leader manages to accumulate a good round sum he will become a capitalist, and from what I have seen, he will be ■as hard on labor as the worst." No doubt the Repatriation Department and the Government would bu very glad if the excellent example of a generous runholder of the Rangitata district were emulated (says the Dominion). This gentleman took up his run in 1912. He is a bachelor, and as he says he has done well with the land he has offered to transfer it to three discharged soldiers, charging nothing for goodwill, which is estimated to be worth £8000. The area of the run is 3230 acres. The Land Board has approved of the transfer.
