INSTITUTE OF NOTRE DAME DES MISSIONS.

A member of the Tablet staff has just received an interesting letter, under date Deal, Kent,' England (where the Mother House is situated), January 29, from the \ ery Reverend Mother M. St. Paeome, wherein the writer incidentally remarks: ‘"Considering the demands for missionary Sisters, we would need ,a great many more in order to satisfy them all. We received lately a most distressing appeal for Sisters for the Philippine Islands, but our Indian mission-field is so wide that it takes all our laborers to cope, even feebly, with the work, and it will be some time before we shall be able to help in the former missions.” Referring to the result of the General Chapter recently held, Reverend Mother-General says: “No doubt you have heard Mother M. St. Genevieve, whom you know so well, was named Mother Burser. However, she returned to West Australia for about 12 months before taking up her work in England. The Very Rev. Mother-General sends kind remembrances to her many friends in New Zealand. • •
