This article focuses on several activities. The editor of this article highlights some news from London, which he went through. The first was in regard to the prohibition placed upon the appearance of Florence Austral, Australian prima donna, as a choir singer in the festival at Worcester Cathedral. She was barred by the dean because of having married a divorced man, John Amadio, noted flutist, and the latter arraigns the Church of England. The editor of this article thinks how in an age of changing ideas in regard to sex relations--any church hopes to hold its membership while maintaining all the old conventions against divorce.
