Trinity Sunday is a Double Feast of tlie Second Class. The observance of |he. King's birthday must be postpoheditiXi. June 4. This is so absurdly self that one would not think • oi^j&pding to the matter were it not thfflpffew years ago a large number BjidKmrches observed May 24, Trinity r^B^day— .'as Empire Day .!.!-. SSfell. The Feast of St. Barnabas is observed m New Zealand as the 4ajj^^;intercessioji for Melafl.psia, the

Missionary Diocese of this Province. : June 29 is the jFeast of the Double Martyrdom of St. Peter and St. Paul (67a.d.) ,; June 7 commemorates the Martyrdom of Winf rid (or Boniface) at Utrecht, a.d. 755. He was an Englishman—" The Apostle of Germany." This would seem an appropriate day of intercession for Germany's re-con-version to the Oatholio faith and for the casting out of the rationalistic and pagan spirits which have taken possession of her.
