A service unique in the annals of
Tillsonburg was held last Sunday
evening in Avondale church. The choir
of this-church exchanged for the ser
vice with the choir ot Central United
church, Woodstock. The Central
choir, consisting of thirty members,
under the leadership of Miss Marie
Thompson, presented six numbers
during the service. Three anthems were
splendidly rendered, especially the
Gounod number, "Gentle Holy Sav
iour.” The Central quartette, consist
ing of Misses Florence Robinson, and
M. Dickie and Messrs. C. Looslcy and
J Farlow, gave Fcaris’ beautiful ar
rangement of "Eventide. The soprano
soloist, Mrs. Arthur Bottoms, sang
“Beyond,” by S. Quentin. The most
enjoyable selection of all was the duet.
Brown's setting of "How Sweet the
name of Jesus,” sung by Mrs. Bottoms
and Miss Dickie, both of whom possess
very beautiful voices.
The minister of Avondale preached
an appropriate sermonettc on the
complementary force of •beauty and
righteousness in religious life from
the text “Worship t|ic Lord in the
beauty of Holiness.” The church was
filled almost to capacity, and the
people of Tillsonburg will regard this
as the outstanding musical event of
the year.
After the service the Ayodale ladies'
aid entertained the visiting choir in
the church school hall. The president
of the Central choir, Mr. J. Farlow,
snoke briefly, expressing the appre
ciation of the Woodstock visitors for
the warmth of their reception and the
happiness of the occasion. Mr. Long
replied, expressing the hope that this
would become an annual occasion for
the two choirs and churches, a sug
gestion which met with unanimous
approval.
In Woodstock, the Avondale- choir
led the service of music in Central
church. Their contributions were
varied, consisting of anthems, several
numbers by the Avondale male quar
tette, and solos by Messrs. Hiilborg
and Brooks. The Avondale choir was
entertained after the service by the
ladies of Central church, when similar
felicitations were exchanged by Mr. Clifford Bean, the Rev. P. Thornton
JCleek, and the Rev. Dr. Knowles, of
Woodstock, and Mr. A. S. Rennie and
Mr. Hiilborg of Tillsonburg.
Especial mention should be made
concealing lioth services of the work
of the organists. Miss M. Thomson of
Woodstock and Miss C. Reekie -of
Tillsonburg. both of whom proved
themselves masters of the strange
organs
Tillsonburg defeated Port Burwell
here oi/Saturday afternoon by a score
of 4 to 2 in an Oxford-Elgin League
game, before a large crowd of specta
tors.
The game went four innings before
the first run went across the plate,
when Horlick scored for Port Burwell
on I-a Fortune's hit and Sutherland
scored number two on a long fly from
Howey’s bat and these were the only-
run* scored by the visitors. The home
team broke into the scoring column in
the fifth inning, when Catcher Smith,
the first man up, started a batting rally
for four runs that won the game.
Fisher struck out and Bartram fol
lowed with a smashing grounder.
Alexander, a young recruit to the team,
smashed out a long one to right field,
scoring Smith; Clots singled, advanc
ing Bartram, then Crossett smashed out a single, scoring Bartram and
Alexander. D Sutherland went the
whole route for Port Burwell, while
Max Smith relieved Wood in the box
for Tillsonburg in the sixth inning, and
all three pitchers received good sup
port.

Tuesday evening last and was a most
gratifying success, the church being
well filled, and the program most en

displayed rare ability, and demonstrat

peared in recital for the first time and
performed their parts remarkably well.

dampen the spirits \of enthusiasm in

though the number present at the

all of those who are interested in the
organization of a League of

An Editor Puts a Question
Mission Work in Africa
The following i* a paper prepared by
Mr*. G. W. Playfair, missionary to
Africa, who lias* been h6me on fur
lough for the past few months. It
was read at a recent meeting of the
Women's Missionary Society at St.
Paul* United church:
In hi* preface to the book “Africa
and Her People." well ha, the author,
F. Deaville Walker, said. "Africa i»
vast and her people singularly varied.
Nothing that can be said or written
can be true of the whole."
Wc see this illustrated many time*
in our own Mission, where tribe* liv
ing side by side have such-varied cus
tom* that if one were to hear two
missionaries speaking without explan
ation, he would be likely to hear such
contradictory statements a* to lead
him to say that one or the other had
lied. Yet each had told the truth con
cerning hi* own people.
For instance, my work has been
argely among the Yorubas, one of the
largest of the African tribes. I could
not speak at any length to you of our
people without telling you they were
idol worshippers for the Yoruba
dieties are said to number 401. If my
sister were speaking to you of their
people, the Iregwc, she would say.
our people have no idols. They wor
ship objects, the sun for instance and
evil spirits of all kinds.
To make even a closer comparison,
most authorities agree that the
Yagba arc a branch of the Yomba
tribe, the Ogbomna another branch of
that tribe. Mr. Titcombc, working
among the former would tell some
very harrowing tales of twin murder,
before the British occu|>ancy. practic
ed openly, but of late years very
ccretly. nevertheless carried on. Our
work was among the latter, our sta-
lons but twenty-five miles apart and 1
would have to say I have found no
such custom there. One of twins is
Very common and I have known both
whose birth must have taken place be
fore the coming of the Missionary.
That we do not sec more living twins
I believe is entirely due to the ina
bility of the mother to care for them
and to provide them with nourishing
food, so in their case it is a survival
of the fittest, regardless of religious
prejudice.
A comparison may be useful in giv
ing an idea of the size'of Africa. Into
this vast continent could be placed.
Europe, India China and the United
States.
Africa is a land which long baffled
the effort* of the civilized world to
explore her interior. Her unhealthy
climate cost the live* of many a
would-be explorer. The author above
quoted say* further the exploration
of the African continent took more
than a century before the main geo
graphical feature, were revealed. The
exploration of the African mind has
scarcely begun.
The names of Livingstone and Stan
ley will ever live
the exploration of unceasing effort, modern mission*
owe much.
Like the customs
South Africa varies
malaria infested district of
Africa, so long known a* “the white
man’s grave,” to the beautiful temper
ate climate of South Africa, where
many a white man and hi, family re-
ide, and where, wc arc told, he has
driven the original inhabitant of the
ountry into the background, has tak
en possession of hi* lands, until
erally speaking he is little more
a slave driven by hi* white
naster.
To the credit of the Brinish
.rnment in Nigeria let it be said thdt his condition cannot exist there. No
white man is allowed to buy and sell
iroperty. He may lease it from the
Government for a certain number of ■cars. If a white man in anger, strikes
a native and a complaint is laid and
woven against him he is required to
>ay a fine.
The mining industry of the Plateau
s largely under the control of the
vhitc man who employ* Urge numbers
if natives. Other industries
growing of cotton, cocoa,
tc., arc in the hands of the native,
de sells his product usually through a
tative middleman to a white trader.
Another safeguard against such a
:ondition is the unhealthy climate.
Eighteen months to two years is the
average term of the white man in this
part of Africa, apart from mission
aries, many of whom remain three or
four years, and in exceptional cases
a trifle longer.
The African generally speaking is a
very superstitious person with little
nitiative content with the bare ne-
cssities of life, which in our eye* arc
most meagre. He is illiterate, lives
in a mud house thatched with grass,
is a polygamist having a* many wives
as his financial circumstances will per
mit.
Except for those parts where Chris
tian Missions have gone and gathered
out a few converts, he is either pagan,
worshipping idols, evil spirits, etc., and
practising all kind* of cruelty in the
name of religion, or he is a Moham
medan, in which case he appears, as
the Pharisees of old, as being more
pious and higher civilized, but it is
only a veneer .on the outside. At heart
he is unscrupulous, looking with more
or less disdain on the unbeliever, of
whom the Christian is chief. Accord
ing to the teaching of his sacred book

speaker. He expressed his perwnal
appreciation af the assistance rendered
him by Mr. McIntosh in his own first
year’* at the court house. He was’ im
pressed the first time he met him
with the treasurer’* sound counsel.
Andrew Baochler
Ex-Warden Andrew Baechlcr of
Tavistock, speaking next, expressed
his appreciation of Mr. McIntosh and
of the kindly advice that he had help
ed him with during his service during
eight years in the county council.
It was a blow to him, when Mr.
McIntosh announces his desire to re
tire on account of ill health.
The hardest task he had was to
move the resolution to accept Mr. Mc
Intosh's resignation. He referred to a
deficit at one time which it was rum
ored that the treasurer was responsible
for. He emphatically corrected this
impression, pointing out that the fault
was due to an error of the county
council, who if they had taken the
advice of Mr. McIntosh, would not
tave committed the error.
William Holmes
Speaking very briefly. Ex-Warden
William Holmes of Otterville, also
x|>rcsscd his appreciation of Mr. Mc
Intosh. He referred especially to his
kindly assistance to the green hands
in the council. He was proud of the
choice of Mr. McIntosh in view of his
splendid record.
George McIntosh
Geo. McIntosh, ex-councillor,
seconded the nomination appointing
Mr. McIntosh as treasurer, now road
superintendent of West Zorra, briefly
expressed his appreciation of Mr. '*■
Intosh.
D: M. Ross, M.P.P.
D. M. Ross, of Embro. M.P.P.
North Oxford thought that the
quet was the right thing to be done to
to Mr. McIntosh. He referred par
ticularly to Mr. McIntosh's strength
as anchor man of the stalwart Zorra
world champion tug-of-war team.
Their sturdy victory reflected the spirt
of the pioneers of Zorra, who evicted
from their native land, were among
the finest settlers to have come to
these shores.
Mayor John Sales
A tribute from the city of Wood-
stock to two highly respected citizens,
was expressed in a few words
Mayor Sales of Woodstock, who ex
pressed appreciation of the honor ex
tended to Mr. and Mrs. McIntosh.
Mayor Brady
The town of Ingersoll also paid its
tribute to the retired treasurer, in the
last brief address of the evening, giv
en by Mayor Brady. Mr. McIntosh’s
splendid record, he said, was a fine
example for younger nten to follow.
J. V. Buchanan
A brief expression of appreciation in
addition to the address on the pro*
grant was added by
Buchanan of Ingersoll.
Sentinel-Review
A true son of Zorra who served hi*
native county faithfully for twenty-
two years. Robert McIntosh, ex-treas
urer of the County of Oxford, was last
night given the honor that wa* his
due. While speeches were spoken and
presentations were made, no greater
indication of the esteem of Mr. Mc
Intosh was shown than in the size and
spirit of the spontaneous gathering of
councillors, present and past, which
met at the Masonic Temple to enter
tain Mr. McIntosh, his wife and their
•faughter. Mrs. Percy Clarkson, as the
guests of honor at a sumptuous ban
quet. That such a gathering wanted
to show its appreciation of the faith
ful services of a splendid official and
! friend was an honor to any man.
’ The speeches of appreciation re
flected the fine spirit of the gather- ling. Like the son of the pioneers to
'whom they referred, there was not much pretty, but meaningless tinsel
and lace adornment about them.
They were all brief but every word
rang sound with the truth of sincer
ity. Every simple eulogy was heart
felt and addressed to the man who
as Capt. Quinn remarked had the

Destructive Fire

(low and Ord in his night attire to the
roof of the store room at the rear of
the store. In his haste Mr. Meyer
omitted his shoes and was unable to
take $150.00 in cash which was also
lost. The telephone operator at once
•ounded the fire alarm, to which a
<reat crowd responded, the alarm be
ing turned in about 1:45 a.m. Sunday,
there were no engines to give the
alarm as is usual However, the volun
teer fire fighters, fire engine and a lib
eral supply of water prevented the
spread of the fire to adjoining build
ings, despite the fact that only about
two feet separated the burning build
ing from the frame barber shop of
Ralph Jackson, and which though suf
fering from heat, flames, etc., still was
saved. The origin of the fire is an en
tire mystery, as the room where the
fire began was used as a storeroom and
contained a large quantitv of goods be
longing to his sister, Miss E. Meyer of
Toronto as well as considerable be
longing to the owner of the building,
and which was all destroyed. The
building is two storey and covered with
metal and this it is felt was a great
factor in saving the property, as the
entire inside was consumed before the outer walls were finally pushed in. thus
confining the fire tq one place. A
hydro pole carrying the high power
town line ignited several times from
the extreme heat in front of the build
ing, but by playing the hose on it occa
sionally the pole was saved from being
entirely destroyed. A wind was blow
ing from the northwest at the time,
which carried sparks and live cinders
to adjoining roofs, that of J. Suther

owing to the recent rains the shingle
roof was wet and no damage was done.
The residences just here are close to
gether and much fear was felt for their
safety.

It was a high-class pharmacist who
saw prescription after prescription fail
to help hundreds of his customer* to

And it was this same man who as
serted that a remedy could and would
be compounded that would make
creaky, swollen, tormented joint* work
with just as much smoothness a* they
ever did.
Now this prescription, rightly named
Joint-Ease,.after being tested success
fully on many obstinate cases, is offer
ed through progressive pharmacists to
the millions of people who suffer from
ailing joints that need limbering up.
Swollen, twingy. inflamed, stiff, pain-
tormented joints are usually caused by
rheumatism, but whatever the couse Joint-Ease soaks right in. through skin
and flesh and gets right to and corrects
the trouble at it* source. .
Remember Joint-Ease is for ailments
of the joints, whether in ankle, knee,
hip. elbow, shoulder, spine or finger,
and when you rub it on. you may ex
pect speedy and gratifying results.

The services in St. John's church on
Sunday last were xvell attended. At
the morning service the rector preach
ed a fine sermon from Romans 13: 11.
He made a strong appeal to all to
awaken from the sleep which is at
present degrading the work of the
church, and to grasp the great oppor
tunities of service. At the evening ser
vice the rector showed very dearly the
falsity of the modernistic teaching so
common today, and made a strong ap
peal for a full and true belief in the
Bible.

HYMN
“Stiff, still with Thee, when purple
morning breaketh.
When the bird waketh, and the
shadows flee:
Fairer than morning. lovelier than the
daylight.Dawn* the sweet consciousness. I am
with Thee."
PRAYER
"Our; Father in Heaven, help us to
start each new daV with Thee. The
path that lies before us is unkown.
We are ignorant of the dangers and
trials that may beset u* before the
evening come*, therefore we implore
Thy presence, for Thou aldne makest us
to dwell in safety. We would submit
all our activities to Thine approval,
knowing that what without Thine aid
is wrought. Thou wilt count but vain
and naught. Grant us strength to give
prompt and loving obedience to Thy
will, that when sunset comes we may
rest in the assurance of Thy favour.
Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
SCRIPTURE
Psalm 84.
MEDITATION
Psalm 84: 6: "Who passing through
the valley of Baca make it a well."
The revised version renders this
rather obicurc phrase: “Pasiing
through the valley of weeping they
3ke it a place of springs." Probably
reference is to some dreary and
parched valley through which the pil
grims massed on their way to the tem
ple in Jerusalem. For ordinary travel
lers thi* valley wa* a place bereft oi
any redeeming feature, but for those
whose hearts were- filled with joy at
the prospect of. worship, their faith
turned it into source* of blessing and
joy. Jesu* said to hi* dcsciples: “I say unto you. that ye shall weep and
lament, and ye shall be sorrowful, but
your sorrow shall be turned into joy.
And ye now therefore have sorrow: but
1 will sec you again, and your heart
shall rejoice, and your joy no man
taketh from you." Paul had this to say
of the vallcv of weeping: "For the
light of affliction, which is but for a
moment, worketh for us a far more
exceeding and eternal weight of glory.”
It will be the lot of us all to pass through the valley of Baca, but with
God's help we may make it a place of
springs.
HYMN
“Living Water, freely flowing,
Fount of Gladness, life-bestowing.
Holy Spirit. O draw nigh.
While Thy name we magnify!"

The Win-One Mission Circle met at
the Itbme of Mrs. Rush on Thursday
last. While several members, were
missed, it was a pleasure to welcome
several visitors. An interesting pro
gram was given and an item of especial
interest was the very fine piano solo
contributed by Helen Wildfang. The
Study book was continued from the
third chapter, parts being taken by the
following members: Mrs. Weatherwax gave reports oi Upper Canada Bible
Society, proving that the Bible is |hc
best seller, aqd why* and how pleas
tome to us tiom the' Soudan, Pacific
Islands. Turkey and Japan for the
right kind oi literature to put into the
hands oi the younger generation of
these countries, and the limitless op
portunities for helping these communi
ties where the Bible has penetrated in
languages understood by the people,
explaining the need of co-operative
movement* tor ChriCian literature and
why literature is not as yet self-sup
porting in these countries. Mrs. Rush
then gave a talk on the importance of
training national authors; and mission
boards and literary work. These talks
by our honorary president arc always
looked forward to with a very great
deal of pleasure, and profit. Miss
Esther Reynolds then spoke on the
’’Influence of Pictures” on those who
cannot read, but who can understand
a picture, because they must depend
for their knowledge of the Bible pn the
spoken word or their memory, and the
right kind'of picture* tell Bible stories
without words. Mrs. J. Hazcll then
spoke, about the influence of the mo
tion picture. On the one hand the
wrong that is done, where American
, life is held tip as degrading by the film*
depicting drunken orgies, immodestly
dressed women, unaware that such
films are barred in a Christian country.
And on the other hand how* that,
guided by a Christian hand, picture*
may be entertaining and instructive.
And how far-reaching i* the influence
for good of pictures of the “Life of
Christ.*’ and may be used as God’s call
to a better life. In a short business
session it was decided to keep the
Korean appeal open for any members
who wish to contribute. We arc given
till the end of the year. The annual
picnic of the Circle was discussed and
will be held the third Wednesday in
July.

CHAPTER XXXII
"What has detained you so long?"
said Lord Bayneham to the coachman,
as he dismounted at the Bayneham
Arms.
“I am waiting for my lady,” replied
the man; “she desired me to do

words.
"It is all right.” he replied, hastily;
"you can go home. I ain sorry you
have been kept waiting so long. Lady
Bayneham will not return with you
this evening.”
The landlord, who had shared the
coachman's wonder, re-entered the
house, perfectly satisfied, and Lord
Bayneham followed the man. who had
been for more than thirty years a
valuable servant his family.
“Dickson," he said, laying one
upon the coachman's shoulder,

Bayneham left the house.”
“Nothing, my lord.” replied
the man; "her ladyship told me on
starting to«drive to Oulston, and wait
for her at the Bayneham Arms, and
I have done so."
"Where did you set her down?"
asked Lord Bayneham.
"My lady stopped at the corner of
Hill Street," replied Dickson; “she
went down toward the Old Cross, and
I drove on to the hotel."
Did Lady Bayneham say anything
about returning?" aiked the earl.

"And you

"None." said the man. “I have been
waiting in much surprise, for her lady

“Dickson," said Lord Bayneham, "I
shall want one man to help me in
what I have to do. We have some
reason to fear that Lady Bayneham
is ill—is not quite herself. She has left
her home and gone, no one knows
where. Can you keep this secret and
help me to trace her?"
“I can, my lord,” said Dickson,
quietly. He made no protestations,
but the young earl understood the
good faith and strong reliance of those
words.
“She went down toward the Old
Cross, you say.” continued Lord
Bayneham; 'that is the road to the
station, can she have gone there?'
He went into the hotel to look at
the “Railway Guide” which

Lord Bayneham'* heart beat
ley; without doubt that was
but where had she gone? IL
had seen her leave the carriage or
quit the station. In spite of the col
lector's testimony he was as much
lost as before.
He spent some long hours at Euston
Square, but discovered no more. He
had traced his wife to Lonon, but
there she vanished completely, and
he knew not what to do.Then he went to Scotland Yard,
for he had heard wonders of the
sagacity of an officer who was said
to be the cleverest private detective
in England, and lie told him the
whole facts of the case, and offered
him a large reward for any informa
tion he could procure. There was no
more to be done. The dectivc told
him to leave the matter in his hands,
and promised to do his best.Tired and depressed. Lord Bayne-
ham went to his house in Grosvenor
Square. Although taken by surprise
at his sudden appearance, the house
keeper soon sent up a reclierchc little
supper, which she was much disap
pointed at finding the next morning
untouched upon the table.
During the day following he had
one long interview with the detective,
and the rest of the time was spent in
writing. On the Thursday morning
the chief papers contained an adver
tisement wherein "Bluebell"—the pet
name he had given her in Brynmar
woods—was entreated to send her ad
dress, as there had been some terrible
mistake; but no reply came to them
—no news came to Lord Bayneham
of his fair young wife.
All at once an idea struck him. Of
course she was gone to Brynmar,
where else should she'seek refuge. It
was past ten o’clock on Thursday
night when the thought came to him.
and he never rested again until he
saw once more the bonny woods of
Brynmar. He had hoped strongly, he
had believed his search ended, but
the Hall looked lonely and deserted;
he knew by old Elpsie's face when
she admitted him that his lost wife
was not there.
The earl did not wait cither for
sleep or refreshment, but hurried
back again, sick at heart, and more
disappointed than he cared to own.
At London he found *trange letters awaiting him from Dr. Greyson. the
trustee and guardian of his wife. He
had received at letter from Lady
I Hilda, saying that she renounced all
I further claim upon the Brynmar
■ estates, or any of the money be
queathed her by Lady Hutton, and
• should never receive more, nor apply
' to him again. Lord Bayneham, she
' said, would understand why, and he
was to decide what should be done
with the fortune she thus renounced.
More bewildered than ever. Lord
Bayneham could only agree with hi'
mother that Hilda must be insane. He
understood nothing whatever of the
motives which actuated her. He tele
graphed for Dr. Greyson to join him.
but neither one nor the other could
suggest any solution of the mystery.
He then todk Bertie Carlyon into
his confidence. The young member
had found himself famous, and his
speeches were eagerly listened to and
eagerly read. He was considered, and
justly, too, as one of the most gifted
and eloquent speakers of the day, and

No one Ont.. June 1.—(Special)
lhe announcement of a far-
re-organizuion of both admin- and manufacturing policies, the
Corporation of Canada,
assumed the front rank
g the Dominion's largest
manufacturers. The an-
louncement. which indicates a friendly
divorcement of the Canadian Stude- uker organization from the Stude-
taker Corporation of America, was is
sued by A. kt Erskine, president of
»oth industrials.
The announcement met unusual
crest in Canadian financial centres to-
lay. The new policies outlined indi
cate that Studebaker's demands upon
Canadian‘raw materials and labor will
»e greatly increased. Greater values
n Studebaker built automobiles and
{reatly increased exportation of Stude-
>aker and Erskine cars is also fore
cast.
The new Studebaker organization
will be directed by D. R. Grossman.
formerly sales manager for Studebaker
in the Dominion. Mr. Grossman's title
will be vice-president and general
manager. Having been associated
with Studebaker in Canada for the
past six years. Mr. Grossman is well
known to the Dominion's automotive
leaders.
The details of the new Studebaker
organization's plans
known in today's state
those acquainted with
lactucing will be great
the general statements.
“The motive behind the re-organiz
ation is to be found in our desire to
build Canadian Automobiles for Can
adians.” says the statement. "The
Studebaker Corporation of Canada.
Ltd., is Canadian. Wc will use more and more of Canada's great supplies of
raw materials. Not only will our consumption of these commodities be in
creased hut new commodities will be
added to our purchasing agent's order
lists."The expansion of the Walkerville
plant is a further step towards the
Canadianization of Studebaker in the
Dominion. We will hire more skilled
and more unskilled labor. Wc hope to
build and sell more automobiles than
wc have in the past. Directly, this plan
contributes to greater Canadian pros
perity by reason of increased employ
ment given Canadians in the Walker
ville factories. Indirectly, many others
in-
in Canada will benefit by reason of
more extensive purchases of materials
and equipment produced in Canada, to
be used in the Walkerville factories.
"For a number of years Studebaker's Canadian policy has been directed to-

inadianizing our automobiles,

and wc want Canadians to
them. It is felt that theapprove time has come to go ahead and no time
will be lost in increasing the number of
cars actually built in Canada.-We hope
to secure greater efficiency than, has •
been possible in the past, which will re
sult in greater automobile values for
Canadian purchasers.
"The expansion of our manufactur
ing program in Canada will also include
a considerable increase in export ship
ments from the Walkerville plants.
With the accumulation of more Cana
dian clement in our Walkerville built
cars, we will be enabled to ship auto
mobiles to Grcaat Britain under the
preferential tariff, as well as to New
Zealand and certain other British pos
sessions overseas. On export ship
ments from Canada into British pos
sessions giving preferential duty on
Canadian-built cars, owners in these
countries profit directly by the in
crease of Canadian element in the cars.
"Continuing the precedent already
established, the personnel of the Can
adian or will be almost ex

gradual increase in the number of em
ployees at the Walkerville plant.
Branches arc now maintained at Mont
real and Calgary. These will also be greatly increased. The administration
offices will continue to be located here;
“This move is a result of Stude
baker's faith in Canada,” said Mr.
Grossman today. “We believe there
will be wonderful developments in this
country and through this expansion
program we will naturally become a
part of these developments."

In day* gone by he wa* the slave trader, feared by the pagan and not
without cause foe he was merciless
in hi* tyranny. He was making too
much to endeavour to convert the
pagan, except by force, but with the
putting down of the slave trade in the
20th century, hi* methods have chang
ed. He now seeks to propagate hi* re
ligion by more peaceable means and
as he travels from place to place sell
ing his wares, for he is a trader, he
preaches his faith, intcr-marries with
the pagan and soon there springs up
a little group of follower* of the false
prophet.
He is averse to anything Christian,
though our Nigerian Moslems are not
the bigoted kind we find in Egypt and
other place* would welcome the com
ing of the white missionaary but sad
to relate, the local Government, with
out we believe the knowledge or sanc
tion of the British Government at
home, and certainly not the British
public, have openly opposed Missions
:o these people to the extent that we
lave been obliged to refrain from en
tering, or even preaching in the three
northern states of that province and
as late as February of last year a gov
ernment official made the statement to a
missionary that it was their intention
o keep these three states intact as
Xfoslcm states to the exclusion of
other religions.
Wc are glad to know, however, that
iraycr change* thing* and at a mcct-
ng held in London on June 20th of
ast year, between the Governor of
Nigeria and -a Missionary committee
the former promised a change of
xsliey. He could make no promise as
o a definite date a* to when these
changes would go into effect but when
hey do, in the territory of the Sudan
Interior Mission, a total population of
about 6.000,0000 people will be opened
to us. about half a million of whom
are pagan.
At a conservative estimate to reach
these people 100 new mission stations
will need to be opened with an aver
age of four missionaries at each. Will
you not join us in prayer that this
iromisc may be carried out and that
laborers may thrust forth and that
those to whom no tidings have come
may be given an opportunity to hear
the Gospel of Salvation.
Just a word as to the working of
the Gospel in Africa. I can only speak
authoritatively of our own field, but
there we have been privileged to wit
ness marvelous changes. We have seen
men and women turn from their idols
to serve the living and the true G<xL
We have seen them renounce their
old religion and superstitions and seek
by example and precept to win their
friends and tribesment to the Lord
We have seen them make sacrifices
which put their white brethren to
shame.
They build their own churches, sup
erintended. where possible, by white
men, bearing the expense and carry-
ing the material in head load* some
time* more than 100 mile*.
In our Yorub work wc have a yearly
Conference where the Christian* from
the various churche* meet together for
prayer and spiritual conference. Here
they bring their free-will offering. In
January- of thi* year the combined
offering wa* Ml. or nearly $2300
with some yet to hear from. From
this fund the native church pay* her
pastors and teachers and supports
those of her number who go a* mis
sionaries to other tribes. In addition
to the above they make a yearly off
ering to the British and Foreign
Bible Society and keep up their own
current expense. Xfuch of this money
is earned by carrying loads of 60 to
65 pound* a distance of 50, 75 or 100
miles. All represent hard labor, but
it is a labor of love.
Much might be said of the changes
that are taking place in that land to
day. all revealing to us at Christians
