Synod Report—Errata. We regret that a number of errata occurred in the Synod Magazine. Some of these are of such a nature that they can be easily corrected by the reader but others are different. We, therefore, call our readers’ attention to the following: Page 93,—line 6 from top of page for “in the case of students who shall make application, or shall be received after 28th May, 1934, with the exception of the sections dealing with applicants and University students. The Regulations shall not be applicable to students at present in training” read “in the case of all students who shall make application, or shall be received after 28th May, 1934. With the exception of the sections dealing with Applicants and University Students, the Regulations shall now be applicable to students at present in training.” Page 98—Church Collections: The Foreign Mission Collection is omitted, it is to be taken up in February (1935), notice to be sent by Rev. N. Macintyre. Page 99—the words “with interest accruing on the whole sum” should come after General Building Fund.
Held Over.—Owing to pressure on our space the usual sermon and Gaelic, etc., are held over.
Day of Humiliation and Prayer.—According to the Synod’s instructions two of the Presbyteries have decided that Thursday, 9th August, be observed as a Day of Humiliation and Prayer throughout the Church on account of the low religious condition of the nation, and the other Presbyteries will probably acquiesce in this date when they meet.
Collection for this Month.—The Collection appointed for this month by the Synod is for the College Fund.
