THE KING’S BUSINESS

Visitors from Africa
Mr. and Mrs. Jesse E. Raynor and their two children, Paul and Ruth, after seven years’ work in British East Africa in con nection with the Africa Inland Mission, are enjoying a furlough in the home land. They are at present in Los Angeles, but hope soon to sail by way o f the Pacific for their field. Mr. Raynor recently gave a most interesting stereopticon lecture in the Bible Institute Auditorium, on his work. Pictures o f thè natives, their vil lages, markets and customs were shown. The work o f the Africa Inland- Mission was also illustrated with pictures o f the
mission, stations, schools and missionaries. At the close o f the lecture a large number o f those present signified their desire to be enrolled as members o f the Africa Inland Mission Prayer Band, and seven young men and women pledged their lives for service in A frica—the Lord permitting. The Mission has now 116 missionaries on the field. One o f our Bible Institute stu dents has just arrived at Mombasa and three others are on their way, having to go via the Pacific on ’account o f war condi tions in the Mediterranean.
