can tell the story of the Christ, or of His sacrifice for their sins. They have never heard the story. The feast and the procession is but a time of indulging in the lusts of the flesh, and in this the priests freely partake. “I could tell you tales of the punishments of images for refusing to grant requests. I could tell you of degraded womanhood, T could tell you of little children with no child hood, sold as slaves and treated in fearfully cruel ways, of little children five years old, and younger, herded like out cast dogs in the cities, knowing nothing of parents. I could tell you of tales of oppression and extortion practiced upon the Indians by the higher classes and the priesthood that would seem unbelievable in this world of today, but if you go to Peru you can see them for yourselves. They need one thing, the whole country needs it, they need the ‘Good News of Salvation.’ But how shall they hear without a preacher, and how shall they preach unless they be sent? “The condition of the Indian is pitiful, but that of the higher class, which has drifted, so far as the'youth is con cerned, into atheism, is just as pitiful. Both are without a saving knowledge of Christ. I appeal to you young peo ple to earnestly consider the needs of this down-trodden, sin-cursed land, when you come to choose your life’s work. “I could tell you of Bibles being burned, of messengers of the Gospel being persecuted, and even slain, so bitter is the hatred the priests bear to the true Gospel. But, and here is a fact not very well known, out of more than three hundred tribes of Indians of South America, while some have come under the power of t'he Roman Catholic Church, there are many that have been reached by no outside influence, and are still firmly rooted in heathenism. In some parts the civilization has reached a high stage of development and in other parts there exist the most sordid forms of slavery and such atrocities as you people have never known. In almost every part of Peru a Christian worker could have a city, a dozen towns, or a province, for his parish.” There was more that was enlightening about this land of the Children of the Sun, as the Incas called themselves. Senor Ramon, the Peruvian who accompanied the mis sionary, was even more touching in his appeal to the youth of this land to come over and help them “inundate the Republic with the Gospel story,” that his people might be liberated from the yoke of Romanism, that the time of religious liberty might be hastened when a man would dare to openly espouse the cause of Christ, There was much more, and William and others were stirred as never before. As they left the chapel when dis missed, William spoke to his chum, Randall Emmet, saying, “The call to my knighthood has come. I go to Peru.” “D E F E N D THE F A I T H ! ” *‘I * * * exh0 rt you th at y e should earnestly contend for th e faith which was on ce delivered unto th e sain ts.” Ju d e 3 .
