MRS. F. N. CHRISTIAN

Readers of the "White Ribbon' will learn with much regret that Mrs. F. N. Christian, who has been the Editor for the past five years, since the retirement of the late Mrs. Peryman, has elected to retire from ibis responsible position, for which she was so aptly fitted and through v'liich she has rendered such outstanding service. Mrs. Christian attended tfie World Convention of the Women’s Christian Temperance Union in England last year. We know that she will continue to ii"C her knowledge and ability in other avenues of our work, and particularly in the Maori Department, of which she has been appointed Dominion Superintendent. The following minute of appreciation was passed at the Convention, and which Unions will be pleased to read: “This Convention wishes to place on record its deep appreciation of the fine work done by Mrs Christian during the six years of her Editorship of the ‘White Riblion.’ The article - and information contained therein were of great value and many Unions profited by them. Her editing of the Beacon was outstanding, while the matter contained in the Y.P. Supplement was of special interest to the children. We wish for her many year*of happy service in the Union."
