GIRL GUIDES, BOY SCOUTS AND BROWNIES.
SPECIAL SERVICES AT THE CATHEDRAL.
On Sunday, All Saints' Day, the Cathedral authorities welcomed the Girl Guides, Boy Scouts and Brownies to the 11 o'clock service. There was an excellent attendance, and the service was most inspiring and helpful.
The choir and clergy met the visitors at the West Door, where a procession was arranged. After the cross-bearer came the Cathedral choir, followed by the clergy, the Bishop, the Guide and Scout colour-bearers, and members of the various troops and packs. The Processional hymn was "Lo Round the throne, a Glorious Band." The colour-bearers advanced to the Sanctuary steps, where His Lordship the Bishop received the colours which were placed in Sanctuary. The Scout Commissioner, the Rev. G. T. Waldegrave, preached a very interesting sermon on Saints and Service, and recounted the story of St. Christopher as an example of Christian fortitude and patience. The service was conducted by the Chaplain; special prayers were said for the Scouts and Guides. The senior officers present were the following: Colonel Robertson, Assistant Commissioner; District Scout Master White; Guide captains Miss Holyoak, Miss Hollingsworth, Miss Shaw, Miss S. Shaw, and Miss Denton.
The choir sang very effectively an All Saints Anthem. At the conclusion of the service the Episcopal Blessing was given after which, the banners having been returned, the choir and colour-bearers with the clergy left the Cathedral by the West Door.
EVENING SERVICE.
At the evening service the members of the Church of England Men's Society were part of a large congregation which witnessed the admittance of several new members to the ranks of the C.E.M.S. This strong and influential Society, with its world-wide activities, possesses an enthusiastic and representative branch in this Colony. The Chaplain preached on the "Communion of Saints," and reminded his hearers that the Church had always borne witness to our fellowship with the faithful departed, and in its Liturgy had always retained references to those who had passed away. It was very noticeable that the singing at the evening service was Congregational and praiseworthy, and it was generally felt that the members of the C.E.M.S. were to be congratulated.
