Fund to Assist in Study for Holy Orders.

"It may not be generally known that the New Zealand Anglican Bible Class Union has a fund from which to assist Bible Class Union members who wish to study for Holy Orders," writes Mr. H. S. Hamilton, president of the union. "Grants are made, usually for the purchase of books, to applicants recomended by their vicars and approved by the trustees of the fund. All communications are treated as strictly confidential and the names of those who receive assistance, and the amounts granted to them, are riot divulged. Only the total amount granted during the year is entered m the statement of accounts presented to the annual conference of the union."

Mr. Hamilton adds that donations, grants, bequests and annual subscriptions to the ordination candidates trust fund are all needed to make it as widely useful as possible. Applications for grants, or contributions to the fund, may be" sent to Mr. Hamilton at St, John's Vicarage, Woolston, Cbristchurch, S.E.I.
