Newman Society, Auckland
The first meeting of the Newman Society for the present year was held on Sunday, March 2, in St. Patrick's Schoolroom. The members expressed great regret at the resignation of their president, Mr. N. R. Jacobsen, who has removed to Dannevirke, whither he carries with him the heartiest good wishes of the society for his future success. Miss F. V. J. Jacobsen, M.A., was unanimously elected to fill the vacant position temporarily. Mr. P. J. Kalaugher and Mr. G. Browne were chosen as the society's representatives on the Catholic Federation. On the motion of Mr. D. O'Donohue, a resolution was passed condemning the attitude of the Bible-in-Schools League for trying to impose upon public school teachers the duty of teaching religion in State schools.
