A street collection will be made this morning by the Women's Committee of tho Overseas Club in order to augment the lund it is raising for the purpose of endowing a cot at tho Red Cross Military Hospital, and, it is hoped a liberal response from tho pubhc may be looked for. According to a. Munich newspaper, the National Courts in Frankfort have instituted proceedings against Houston Stewart Chamberlain, who gained unenviable notoriety b v renouncing his allegiance to England In an article published in tho Deutsche Tageszeitung, of which he is a director, he alleged that tho Frankfort Gazette was in Entrlish pay. An ingenious descriptive title has been discovered in England for the Church army. It is "Ohariny.' This constitutes an admirable appellation, attractive to the eye and suggestive to tho mind of something particularly inviting. This name was first applied to the new Church Army Club Restaurant, facing Marblo Arch, London It has been pointed out that it could, be advantageously used in connection with tho Church Army's War Work Campaign in New Zealand. Indeed, it is thought that the term is lfkely to come into general use horo. Certainly "Charmy"' could be adopted with decided convenience. Similar nicknames in other relations have proved most serviceable.
