Not long ago Maniâ€" toba ministers voiced their approval; the Middlesex Presbytery of the United Church of Canada, meeting in London, voted against the ordinâ€" ation of women. The decision was very close though, the standing vote being 40 to 38. The narrow margin points to a growing sympathy for women preachers. Many â€" churchmen contend that the fair sex is better fitted for the role of missionary or deaconess. Others say certain women â€"would make excellent pulpit orators.

In his statement last week in the State Council Sir Baron Jayatilaka declarâ€" ed that if there was no break in the weather during the next few days a state of famine would be bound to supervene. That prophecy of woe seems to be in process of fulfilment. The weather reports continue to reâ€" cord the absence of rain in precisely those parts where rain is most needâ€" ed to abate the malaria epdiemic and to prevent crop failure. The rainâ€" fall to date since the beginning of the year, comparing most unfavourâ€" ably with the average for the corâ€" responding period during two decadâ€" es, is disastrously deficient. The farâ€" reaching effect of this second drought, of last year, it is imposâ€" sible to forecast. The crops on which the bulk of the population depend for their livelihood, badly affected as they have been already, will be in danger of complete ruin. The parchâ€" ing up of paddy fields and the deâ€" vastation of chenas will lend a peculiar poignancy to the more proâ€" longed illâ€"effects on coconut plantâ€" ations which have had their full share of misfortune in other reâ€" spects.
