THE GAZETTE

The present Editor lays down his task with happy memories of his three years m the editorial chair. He is happy to know that the paper has paid its' way, and has maintained a good standard of Church journalism. We give an extract from the Gazette Committee's report, m which the important sugestion is made that a layman be appointed to attend to the advertisements. Our successor, Canon A. Neild, M.A., will bring to the journal his great qualities of heart and brain, and we heartily wish him every happiness and success. Unfortunately, Canon Nield is at present laid aside by sickness, but he is very hopeful of being m harness for the production of the Christmas issue. The sessional committee's report read: The committee views with much satisfaction the steady improvement and progress made during the past year m every direction, both journalistic and financial, and offers its congratulations and appreciation to the editor, Rev. P. L. Frost. We feel that m every parish there should be a correspondent appointed by the Vicar who should be responsible from time to time for sending m parish notes of Diocesan interest. Owing to the impending departure of the editor, it is necessary for Synod to appoint a successor, and the committee suggests that Canon Nield be appointed. The committee also suggests that Standing Committee appoint a layman to take charge of the advertisements so as to free the editor from the literary work.
