greater love for the Master than we have. I often think of Jesus’ parables in Luke 7. They love most to whom is forgiven most, and these poor peo­ ple had sunk to the lowest depths of sin. We need your prayers for our­ selves and for the work here. Satan is never asleep and he’s pretty sure to attack from the most unexpected side and fairly knock a person over, but praise God, He is all powerful and in the precious name of Jesus we can be more than conquerors.” Married Peter Eitzen, ’20,'' and Elizabeth Siemens, December 24, 1923.

TORBEY EVANGELISTIC CAM­ PAIGN IN WINNIPEG We know that all The King’s Busi­ ness readers will he glad to unite in prayer for a rich outpouring of God’s blessing on the evangelistic meetings to be held by Dr. Torrey in Winnipeg April 27 to May 25, inclusive. Pray that the saints may be strengthened in faith and multitudes of sinners may find salvation. 11 vM/i, IiI m a » HINDU’S NOBLE GIFT Through reading the New Testa­ ment in Sanskrit, a native of the Pun­ jab, India, was led to Christ, and at his own request was baptized into the Christian faith, though he knew it meant being cast out by his wife and his own people. He lived a consistent Christian life, and in old age he brought to the wife of Dr. Stanton, tho head of the mission, a gift of .30 rupees, saying he wished half of it to be distributed amongst poor people, and the other half to be given to the British and Foreign Bible Society, for, said he, “ it was through reading the Scriptures that I was led to Christ.” The Blind Need Bibles!

KTRT/K INSTITUTE HAPPENINGS (Continued from Page 311) Harry A. Jones, ’22, Mission House, E. Bengal, India, writes as follows: “ My last note to you was from New Zealand, but the long journey is now swallowed up and I’m happily and com­ fortably settled here. I’ve a satisfied feeling to know that I’m at last, in what I hope will be my portion of the field for many years to come. The first hurdle that I have to overcome is the learning of the language—-al­ ready my tongue has begun a new set of gymnastics and I’m beginning to emit peculiar sounds heretofore un­ known to my person. However, as there are a number of English-speak­ ing Indians here, my limited knowl­ edge of Bengali does not force me to be idle. I seldom go for a walk of an evening without finding some­ one with whom I can speak of the Lord Jesus. On my way from N. Z. I was glad to spend a few hours with two former B. I. students, Mr. James Bird in Australia and Mr. James Ker in South India. It was grand to see them again and to hear them speak of the work which their hearts are in.” Miss Mary J. Hall, '17, writes from Kamakura, Japan: “ I am rejoicing to say that I was wonderfully spared during the time of earthquake and God has kept my home and work for me. I cannot leave Japan now in her time of need, for she needs real Chris­ tian workers now if ever. My plan is to keep on giving English lessons, especially to the high school students and to teach in the evening school we are starting. I cannot charge any­ thing for lessons now of course. 1 am under no board, so will have no income. My time will be more than full for we want to reach these stu­ dents for Christ in their time of need. I will do all my own work and live on native food as far as possible. Then I hope my friends in America will see the need as I see it and send the necessary funds for me to continue my work of teaching English and having Bible classes until my students can again pay. Please pray for me also. I sorely need wisdom and I know He will supply it.” Those wishing to sub­ scribe money for Miss Hall’s needs can send checks payable to her sister, Mrs. Charles W. Kinnear, 338 Citrus Ave., Whittier, Calif. A letter from Mrs. D. P. Siemens (Irene Witmer), ’ 20, says: “ The Lord has been blessing the work more than we had almost dared to hope (how little faith we have). One by one souls have accepted the Lord, and Oh, what a change has been wrought in their lives! We had another bap­ tismal servicd on New Year’s day, when three were baptized. Since August there have been ten and more waiting to be. How we do praise God for the faithful, wide-awake be­ lievers here. They were so anxious to have a “ local” of their own that they donated their work and besides are tithing to pay for it. If you could see their poverty you could realize a bit what that means for them. They simply put us to shame. They are so ignorant, yet it seems they have a
