Successful Appeal Swells A.B.M. Funds.
AT the last meeting of the Australian Board of Missions, it was stated that the debt to the New Guinea Mission was reduced from £7301 to £4358, mainly as a result of an appeal for old gold and jewellery. A special gift of £60 was received to provide a small launch for the Rev. E. R. Gribble, chaplain of the Palm Island aboriginal settlement.
The Board’s income for 1932 from dioceses throughout the Commonwealth was £25,494 compared with for the previous year.
