Wait for me. Liberal laggards in disestablishment debate
A critique uses a classroom image of a girl delaying to illustrate Liberals who rush forward yet lag behind in supporting church disestablishment. The piece urges forward movement, questions delaying tactics, and mocks those who shout wait for me while others advance on reform. It argues against obstructive timidity by the Lords and cautions the Liberal party against inertness and self-defeating delays.

Ecclesiastical Notes on New Colonial Bishops and Obedience
An article reports a major church action in England affecting the Established Church. Three new colonial bishops were to be consecrated, with the oath of obedience to the Archbishop of Canterbury at stake. The Capetown bishop refused to permit the Orange Free State bishop to take the oath, prompting a long debate over the Archbishop’s power and the status of the Free Episcopalian Church of South Africa as a voluntary association. The discussion centers on canonical obedience and potential consequences for established church structure.
