The General
The following report of the General Synod of the Church of England in Canada, i949, which was held receniy in Halifax, will be read with appreciation:
The Sessions began with service at St. Paul's Church. Wednesday 14 Sept. and closed on Thursday. Sept. 15th. at 10 p. m. Preceding it there was a quiet hour for the delegates from Nova Scotia. on Tuesday. Sept. 13th and a study of the Agenda in the afternoon. The Preacher at the opening service was the Most Reverend and Right Honourable Cyril Fos- ter Garbett. Archbishop of York and Primate of England.
’l‘he Procession from St. Paul's Hall to the Church of 300 or more persons was impressive and digni- fied: the lay delegate‘! leading. then the clergy, followed by Bish- ops and their Chaplains, the Archbishops and their Chaplains, the Archbishop of York and his Chaplains and finally the Primate and his Chaplains, preceded by the Primatial Cross.
After the service there was a civic luncheon at the Nova Sco- tian Hotel addressed by the Arch- bishop of York, who told the dele- gates of the ancient struggles for the Primacy of England, going back for many centuries and of the harmony that existed between Canterbury and York today.
O U I
in the afternoon at Dalhousie Gymnasium the sessions were or- ganized and Archdeacon Calvert was elected Prolocutor of the Lower House, with Mr. Justice Harrison as his deputy. Tribute was paid by Dr. Harris, retiring Prolocutor who has served Gen- eral Synod faithfully for many years. An impressive moment was the welcome and admission of the Diocese of Newfoundland into the Canadian Church and the presen- tation of a bottle of water from the Pacific which the Bishop of Newfoundland was asked to pour into the Atlantic.
I I O
A special convocation of King's College was held. at which hon- orary degrees were conferred on the Archbishop of York. Mrs. Wodehouse and Mr. Justice Har- rison.

_ The Primate, the Most Reverend G. F,'Kingston, Lord Archbishop of Nova Scotia delivered his charge. He welcomed the dele- gates, the Archbishop of York, an ancient city going back to days even before those of the Emperor Constantine, and declared that throughout its history no holder of the See of York had had a more profound spiritual influence on his times than the present oc- cupant: and slated of the entry of Newfoundland into the Canadian Church that we would receive the benefit of staunch churchmanship, loyalty to the Anglican tradition and a magnificent missionary spirit.
He paid a glowing tribute to the life and work of the late Primate. Derwyn T. Owen. Referring to anniversaries he spoke of the 400th anniversary of the Book of Com- mon Prayer: of the Bicentenary of St. Paul's Halifax, of the 100th. anniversary of Rupertsland and the 75th. of Athabasca and Saskat- chewan this year. He noted that this Synod had been sent greet- ings by the Archbishops of Can- terbury, York, Armagh, Dublin. the Primus of Scotland, the Pre- siding Bishop of the United States, the Archbishop of Calcutta Bris- bane, Melbourne. Perth, New Zea- land. the West Indies, the Presid- ing Bishop of Japan. the chairman of the House of Bishop, in Chins, the Archbishop of South Africa,

though no drab uniformity —Let us see that this continues to grow.
He prayed for a deeper love of Christ and his Church, for the dedication of our wills, and for a closer walk wlth.Gocl day by day.

On the following day there was a reception for member; of the Synod and their wives at Govern- merit House and s magnificent service oflwltnessgst the Halifax Forum, addressed by the Arch- bishop of York. This was the closing event of the Halifax Bl- centenary. In spite of the torren- tial rain, there was a fine atten- dance.
The three Great Boards of the
Canadian Church presented full Reports each taking most of a day's session, (l) The Missionary Society of the Canadian Church stressed the need of increased growing in view of growing responsibilities. in In- dia a new diocese is contemplat- ed in East Punjab which will be an extension of one Kangra Mis- sion. The work in Japan progres- ses. The situation in China is cha- otic and our missionaries are withdrawn for the present. The Indian Residential Schools in Canada are not in a flourishing condition and definite efforts have to be made to solve this problem. A plan to place returned miasion= aries after service in Parishes is under review.'
(2) The General Board of Re- ligious Education has put out new courses of study and some very useful study material for Sunday Schools, Teacher Training, A. Y. P. A. and general instruction. The Secretary Dr. Hiltz has resigned and a new Secretary is to be ap- pointed.
(3) The Canadian Council of Social Service has an extensive programme on hand and has giv- en lntensive study to our own domestic social and moral prob- lems and to our international and racial relationships, it stands out as the champion of freedom and justice based on the fundamentals of the Christian Gospel. It is im- possible here to give in detail any summary of its manifold activities.
O I O
The Report on the State of the Church marked an increa in membership, in the numbe of lay readers and of self supporting parishes. There was a decline in the number of Confirmation can- didates and of Sunday School pupils. There was an increase in all contributions and in capital funds. The Revision of the Prayer Book has resulted in a revised Psalter, which is reverent and lucid. There will be in time se- lective use of Psalms. A new Bap- tism service is being put out and a marriage service for permissive use, when that is granted. It may be noticed that a woman may not have to promise to obey her hus- band in the future.
The question of divorce and of marriage after divorce was keenly debated. Even though the lower House by a small majority recom- mended the marriage of the "in- noccnt" party with the rites of the Church, the House of Bishops did not concur and our marriage law in this regard remains the same. There are. however, cer- tain conditions under which mar- riages may be declared to be null and void. as never having taken place. This is entirely different from divorce. These conditions were accepted by Synod and will be embodied in a canon. In the meantime the matter is being further studied by the Commission on Marriage and Divorce.

REASONS FOB TOTAL ABSTINENCE
1. Modern sclene proves that alcohol is not helpful to any vital process. It ls the enemy of vitality. It overworks the organs with which it comes 1n contact, inducing need- less friction.
2. ‘Ihe appetite alcoholic drinks is cumulative. It has no power of self-destruction. It grows by what it feeds on. Ono glass calla for tJwo, two for three, and so on in dangerous ratio.
3. The llfe of s. drinking man is apt to be divided into two chap- ters of a very tragic serial, in the first of which he could have left off if he would. and in the second ha would have left off if he could.
4, The power of habit is practic- ally omnlpotent. The power of will to cope with it has been proven insufficient. The grooves-of action are quickly worn. No harm results from doing without alcohol but absolute good has been proven to result from such abstinence. Therefore a; a friend to myself, and the special guardian of my own well-being, I am bound to let in- toxtcatlng liquors alone; and by the terms of Christ's Golden Rule I am equally bound to let them alone because of my interest in the well- being of those about. me and be- cause of my purpose, by God's grace. to invest my life in hasten- lng the day when all merfs weal shall be each man's care-Frances Willard (address in 1890).

Nina Wilcox Putnam, in an ar- ticle called "Women Are Fools to Drink", urges women who think they can get. away with it, to take a photographer to their next party. It was seeing herself at a private dinner party in Holywood that caused Mrs. Putnam to realize her danger. “That picture was the best thin-g that ever happened to me. I saw that while I might not be drunk after a. few drinks, I looked drunk. and I began to think about women and drink as I never did before. not those who are victims of alcoholism, but women and girls who drink a little every day, and who are always being led into do-
lng things they don't want to through the influence of alcohol.

Thousands of drinking women have lost good Job; they liked, spoiled their lives, and crippled themselves socially. See yourself as others see you. and once you do, you will never drink again."
AA PUBLIC BTEETING
The first public meeting o! Alcoholics Anonymous In the Maritime Provinces was on March 4, in the Merchant Scamens Club.
The meeting - open to all those suffering from and interested in the curo of alcoholism - was addressed by u prominent. member of Alcoholics Anonymous, of New York City.
AA, as it is called by its man- bers, was formed fourteen years ago and has more than 60,000 members in some 150 groups in Canada and the United States.
To date there are seven active groups in the Maritime-s - In
Halifax, Amherst, Saint John, Summerslde and Charlottetown.

Tn his "points of Emphasis" he dealt with:
(l) Spiritual advance - that the glory of God. the salvation of souls. the renewal of society must be notes that sound out clearly and persistently. (2) The World Council of Churches which is no super Church attempting to dom- inate the policy of autonomous Churches, but only a help to co- operation in winning the world for Christ.
(3) The need of a good sound Theology Missionary Work, Social. Service, the relation of man to man are based on our belief in God, not upon the desire to im- prove the lot nf man. Theology therefore is of first importance.
(4) Building the nation -- Loy- alty to God. loyalty to the law. loyalty to the moral law must be proclaimed in the face of domin- ant worldly interests, lawlessness, and violation of moral codes.
(5) Our Missionary work is an appeal to greatness and must be faced with the realism and ideal- ism which our faith inspires.
(6) The Family survives still
as the fundamental Social Unit. 1t takes s prominent place in the teaching of our Lord. Marriage and all that pertains to it must be held sacred. The home is the training ground for life; in it hu- man values are upheld and devel- oped. (7) Youth must be persuaded to join up in the campaign to make Christ king in international, ns- tional, economic and Industrial and in the social realm. They must feel that the Church is ready for action In the Name of the only Saviour of the world. There is need for youth to seek vocation ftor Holy Orders. as Deaconess, Sisters, Teachers, Nurses and Missionaries, In ser- lousness of mind and earnestness ln prayer.
(l) Evangelism ls needed to combat lulrewarmnen and the ap- peal is made for regular worship. for wltnen. for truly helpful and creative amusement, and for a Christian atmosphere in the home.

cred that the question should be further considered.
The Reunion conversations are to be continued. it seems clear that new avenues of- approach will have to be considered.
The Pension Board was asked to consider an increase in Pensions for clergy of $100. per annum and of $80. for widows.
The field of jurisdiction as be- tween General and Provincial Synods is to be further considered. Few people have clear ideas on this question and this course ap- pears to be wise.
The Anglican Advance Appeal has now come to an end. Those who are in arrears of their con- tributions are requested to settle them as goon as possible.
The Synod asked that an Am- bassador to the Vatican from Can- ada should not be appointed. We will see how the Government views this matter in due course.
At the close of Synod magnifi- cent tributes were paid to Dr. Hilts retiring Secretary of G. B. R. E., to Dr. Coady for long scr- vic: in General Synod and to the Primate for his masterly. conduct of affairs. The next General Synod in 1952 is to meet at London, On- tario,
