enced fingers told her that the yquth had a broken leg and several lacerations about his body result ing from the fall down the jagged side of the rocky mountain. From the kit she had strapped to her back, she took antiseptics, oint ments and bandages and bound the wounds; using a couple of sticks from the pine scrub growing out of a crevice to form a splint for the injured leg. Na-ha-la stirred restlessly. The |girl knew she could not move him. “ I will just have to go back to the village and get help,” she mur mured. On the main trail she met a search party. They told her that Na-ha-la’s horse had returned to camp riderless. Helen guided the braves back to the ledge where the boy lay half-conscious. She told them how God had guided her to the place but they listened without comment. That afternoon Helen went into town for supplies and stayed with a friend for a few days in order to attend a missionary conference. It was almost a week later when she entered the chief’s hut. Na-ha-la sat up and held out both
hands to her in greeting. “How do you feel, Na-ha-la?” “ Much better now. God answer prayer while me on ledge. Snake frighten horse. Me roll down hill. On ledge long time. Much scared. Think many things. Think what you say about God. Me tell God me believe if white missionary find me.” Before Helen came Na-ha-la had told his father how God had sent her to his side. The chief had al ready heard of the words Helen had spoken to his braves. When the chief came in he asked Helen to tell them more about her great God. She told them once again how Jesus’ love had taken Him to Calvary to save them all. Late that afternoon, Helen took the long path homeward, rejoicing in her heart for the salvation of the chief and his son. There would be many meetings with the people — the barrier was gone. When she passed the barren pear tree it seemed to whisper, “ No fruit.” Again Helen laughed, “ Oh, but there is fruit.” Then she said softly, “What would have hap pened to that fruit, dear God, if I had not come?” END.
