.Miss  l''!oreiice  Walker  writes  from 
I  hi,  via  -los.  .\orlherii  Nigeria:  "'I 
had  a  very  aiKcnturous  time  Li'cttinj^' 
to  this  st  at  ion.  it  is  seveiit\-live  miles 
away  in  the  hush  from  Ihi.  hidden 
amoii.iz'  the  mountains,  reall\'  three 
days'  j()urne\'.  One  of  the  mission- 
aries at  ihi  happened  to  liaxc  a  motor- 
cycle and  side  car.  so  he  su<2'«:ested 
hriii<riii<i'  me  out  that  way.  We  had 
only  a  narrow  path  to  follow,  and  the 
way  was  so  roii'jh  that  when  we  had 
^Toiie  only   lifteen    Mules  the   tire   on    the 

sidecar  hurst.  We  iminau'ed  to  |)atch 
it  up  to  last  until  we  reached  another 
station  ten  miles  awa\'.  'riieii  we  had 
to  discard  the  side  car  altoiict  her,  and 
for  till'  next  fifty  miles  I  had  to  ride 
on  the  hack  o\'  the  motorcycle.  Once 
I  was  thrown  oft'  and  tinnhled  over 
the  top  of  the  driver,  hut  only  liot  a 
si-rateli  or  two.  for  which  I  wa-.  ex- 
InMiiely  thankful.  When  we  were 
liffeen  miles  from  our  .ionrney's  end. 
the  motorcycle  refused  to  ^'o.  so  We 
iiatl  to  ^ieiid  a  hoy  in   for  help,  while 


we  started  to  walk.  We  walked  for 
si.\  miles  and  it  he.ean  to  "ct  dai'k.  AVe 
rested  on  the  I'oadside  near  a  native 
villa<i'e.  The  |)eople  were  very  kind 
to  us.  huilt  a  lii'c  and  hi'ouuht  a  mat 
for  me  to  rest  on.  We  were  Iuiii,u'r\' 
and  thirsty.  l)ut  eouldn't  eat  the  native 
food.  We  mana<i('d  to  .ti'ct  ,soiiie  water 
hoiled  and  we  had  a  lew  sandwiches. 
Ahout  nine  o'clock  alons;'  came  two 
men  with  a  cyide  f(tr  each  of  us.  and 
we  started  on  oui'  way  a.ti'ain.  I  had 
not  ridden  a  cycle  for  so  lon^"  and  the 
way  was  so  iiari-o\v  I  could  scarcely 
travid.  We  had  to  ^'o  through  a  moun- 
tain |»ass,  as  the  station  here  lies  rii-ht 
amouL;'  the  hills,  and  of  course  we  had 
t(»  walk  tlirou^h  and  push  our  cycles. 
It  was  (jiiite  an  experience,  heiilg'  near 
midni<>-h1.  and  there  was  every  possi- 
hility  of  meet  inu'  a  wild  animal  or  two. 
as  tliei-e  ai'c  (piite  a  iiumher  aiiionii' 
the  hills.  I  hit  we  were  hrougiit 
throu<^li  safely,  and  now  1  am  here  on 
my  station  with  an  American  lady. 
We  lia\c  charL:c  of  the  work  together.

Ood  eNplained.  The  followinji'  pass- 
aj?!'  in  a  letter  sent  to  the  Prinei])al  in 
An<rnst  jjives  an  interestino:  aeeoiiiit 
of  his  work  in  one  place. 

When  1  an-ived  at  Deer  Lake,  I 
made  in(|nii'\-  as  to  the  spiritual  needs 
of  the  place.  I  was  told  services  were 
held  there  every  two  -week.s,  and  out 
of  a  |)opulalion  of  about  400,  includinu' 
mill  hands,  only  an  averaije  of  about 
eijjht  attended  the  services.  My  in- 
formant said  the  main  reason  was  the 
|»rcaclier  "did  not  explain  the  Bi])le". 
I  reali/.ed  that  it  was  a  l>ible  College 
.student  they  needed,  so  I  announced 
services  for  every  ni|Hfht  in  the  school 
honse  (where  the  services  are  held"). 
The  j)lace  .seemed  so  dead  spiritually 
I  could  t^et  only  a  few  out  to  start 
with.  Sunday  iiij^ht.  Mr.  Dunn,  the 
aj^ciit  at  liolgei',  came  down  t(»  hel|) 
me.  I  asked  f(U'  a  demonstration  of 
hands,  but  no  hands  went  up.  T  a.sked 
for  no  more  demonstrations,  but  on 
my    last    iii<:lit.   which    was   the   si.xlh, 

the    peo|»Ie    eoilld    not    all    ^o\    illtO   the 

school.  The  news  had  <i-one  around 
that  I  was  e\|)laiiiiim-  the  liible.  1 
closed  the  last  meelinfi:  and  did  not 
ask  for  anv  demonstration,  but  after 


sittin*-'  down,  one  man  <:'o1  np  and  on 
liehal  f  of  t  he  audience  1  hanked  me.  and 
the  wholi'  ciinu'reu'at  ion  stood.  Then  a 
lady  who  was  soloist  in  a  prominent 
(  'hiircji  rose  lip  and  asked  if  she  might 
not  say  something.  She  said  she  had 
never  heard  the  (iospel  Ixd'ore  1  came, 
had  accepted  ('hrist,  had  a  chaiiLic 
inside  her,  etc.  I  thankt'd  her,  and 
then  four  young  men  testified;  they, 
too,  had  accepted  ('hrist  ;  then  another 
lady.  They  were  real,  1  could  see  it 
in  their  faces.  1  was  in  the  station  at 
ll.;50  ]i.in.  waiting  for  my  train  when 
two  of  tlie  young  men  who  had  testi- 
lied  came  in.  They  told  me  they  had 
not  liecii  attending  church,  and  were 
going  to  the  bad  fast,  but  they  now 
had  a  joy  and  peace,  etc.  They  asked 
me  if  it  was  wrong  to  smoke  and  dance. 
I  said  ""why  do  you  ask?  I  have  not 
said  it  was";  they  replied  "we  have 
thrown  away  our  tobacco,  and  are  go- 
ing to  quit  dancing,  something  inside 
us  tells  us  it  isn't  right."  I  asked  the 
boys  where  tlie\-  had  been  to  be  up  at 
ll.;}0  p.m.  They  said  they  had  been 
down  to  the  track  to  see  a  sick  old 
man.  They  read  the  Bible  to  him  and 
{/rayed  with  him,  and  though  not 
knowing  any  hymns,  they  sang  as 
iiiuch  as  they  could  to  him.  Some  of 
;he  mill  men  told  me  the  four  boys 
were  causing  (juite  a  commotion  in  the 
two  mills.  Thev  w'ere  singing  nearly 
all  day.
