FLASHES FROM WELLINGTON.

(Special to the “Star.” AUCKLAND, January 4. Wireless' For Churches. Wireless and its possibilities for religion appeal strongly to a number of Anglican clergy in Auckland. Experiments are being carried on with a view to installing receiving sets and loud speakers in churches, especially the small country ones, and the objective of ultimately having an Anglican broadcasting station in Auckland is being kept steadily in view. Passengers Hire Pillows. One of the busiest members of the Auckland Railway Station staff iast evening was the porter employed in hiring out pillows for a shilling. Pillows have become very popular with longdistance travellers since the system was introduced, and this was borne out when every available one was sold some time before the departure of the last express. Four hundred and fifty pillows were disposed of to passengers on the three expresses. Man Missing. Anxiety is being felt as to the u hereabouts of a returned soldier, Joseph Albert Twist, who has been missing from his home in Wright Street since two days before Christmas Twist was shot in the head during the war. He had been known to wander before, but never to be away for such a long period. He is forty-one years of age. has a black moustache and hair just turning grey, and is sft Sin in height.
