Young, at the headquarters chapel of the Church Army yesterday, Mr. H. G. Ryan, of Blenheim, was enrolled as a cadet and candidate for training. The cadet was presented by Captain F. C. Pearce and the field secretary. Captain S. R. Banyard, presented the badges to Mr. Ryan. The ceremony was followed by the celebration of Holy Communion.
After undertaking special work in Hawke's Bay, Captain A. M. H. Dewar commenced new duties yesterday in the parish of Otahuhu, where he will work with the vicar, the Rev. J. Stanton.
