The retirement of the Rev. C. O. Lelean as principal of the Davuilevu training college, Fiji, and the appointment of the Rev. A. G. Adamson, of Victoria, to suc ceed him, and of the Rev. A. C. Cato, of Victoria, as director of educational train ing at the institution, were announced on February 7 at the annual board meeting of the Australian Methodist Missionary So ciety.

Mr. Adamson is at present in Fiji. The board placed oh record its sense of the great loss to the Fiji district by Mr. Le lean’s retirement. For 33 years Mr. Lelean had served the Church in Fiji faithfully and with conspicuous ability. As principal of the college for 20 years he had rendered his greatest service, and he had influenced profoundly the present generation in Fiji.

He had done much translation and revi sion work which would serve the Fijian church for generations.
