There is a need of :more missionaries and especially for some to work out languages so the new mis­ sionary can get the language quickly.” Henry Mitchell, ’17, writes from Cambridge, Ohio: “This year is the best I have ever had. God has graciously opened a wide door for service. I was conducting three meetings every week during the Seminary year, two factory and one in the neighborhood. Several have taken a stand for Christ. The more I witness for Him, the more I rejoice.” Celestia Churchill, ’17, writes from Los Angeles, Cal.: “Am assistant Ma­ tron and general instructor at the Bar­ ton Home, a home for girls who are

duties that naturally constitute pioneer T^ork in Africa. We realize that we are indeed “Par off among the heathen” and thank God for the privilege of liv­ ing here “Under His shadow." Florence Cake Colwell, ’15, writes: “Until March of this year Mr. Colwell and I were permitted to labor for the Lord among the Chippewa Indians in Wisconsin.

Some years ago work was started here but it was dropped and in some respects it will he harder than if nothing had been done. Our work is seed sowing. God has enabled me to sell over 100 New Testa­ ments, besides giving away hundreds of gospels and tracts, the Testaments going mostly into the hands of people who never had a copy before.
