SYDNEY UNIVERSITY MEN'S CHRISTIAN UNION. The Sydney University Christian Union was founded on May 19th, 1896. This Union is a branch of the Australasian Student Christian Union, which in its turn is a branch of the World's Student Christian Federation. This federation is composed of 1825 associations, with an aggregate membership of over 103,000. The federation has made all the student movements of the world better acquainted with each other by establishing among them practical means of communication, such as world's conferences, intervisitation, correspondence, and interchange of publications. Its objects may be gathered from Article II. of the Constitution : : "To strengthen the bonds of union among Christian students; to influence fellow-students to become followers of Christ; to deepen the spiritual life of students; to promote Christian work, especially by and for students; to lead students as they go forth from the University to place their lives where they will be most useful in extending the Kingdom of Christ." Public meetings are held on Thursdays, at 1.30 p.m., 2.15 p.m. Bible Classes are arranged weekly for the different years in the different faculties. There are several College Classes. Classes are also arranged fortnightly for studying the progress which Christianity is making throughout the world. The Sydney University City Lads' Club is conducted by the Union (for particulars see elsewhere). The Union is in possession of a library, which contains many standard works on the religious problems of the day. It is situated in the lobby to Professor MacCallum's lecture room. Membership-which is of two kinds, active and associate-is open to all members of the University. Subscription, 3s. per annum. Until 1903 the Union included both the men's and women's branches; but at the annual meeting of October, 1904, these two branches were separated to form two distinct self-governing unions, each with its own constitution. The annual meeting of the Union is held in the second week of Third Term, at which the executive officers are elected to serve for one year. OFFICE BEARERS FOR 1908. PRESIDENT-A. L. Campbell.

The Club is a branch of the Men's Christian Union, and now carries on the work of the late Sydney University and City League formed in 1901. The object is to regularly influence boys who are not touched by any other organisation, to help them to fight against their evil surroundings, and to turn them out as useful citizens. The work was carried on for some years in Miller's Point. To allow for expansion, the Club was last year moved to Ultimo, and was open four evenings a week. It then amalgamated with Mrs. Vickery's Boys' Club in Bay Street. Full particulars may be had from the Secretary. OFFICE BEARERS FOR 1908. HON. SECRETARY-R. J. Moses, 223 Parramatta Road, Leichhardt.
