ORMISTCN MISSIONARY AND AUTHOR TELLS OF "WORK IN AFRICA Many Difficulties Encoun- tered-- Otfers Heard at Summer School "Opening Doors in Africa" was the topic of an interesting and in- spiring addvess by Dr. J. T. Tucker, secretary Central African Missions, Thursday night at the Whitby School of Missions at the College. Dr. Tucker was introduced by Rev. A. L. Richards, of Whitby, who graduated from the same college in Montreal. Dr. Tucker, besides being a prominent missionary, is an auth- or of note, prominent among his books being "Drums in Darkness." Dr. Tucker first told of the many difficulties that confront the mis- sionary in the evangelizing of that great country. Since Africa is a country of many languages, 600 in number, the missionary must first become somewhat of a linguist. Dr, Tucker first went to Africa 20 years ago, and in that time he has seen many changes. Frist of all, per- haps, in transportation. Now, it is the automobile where formerly it was a sort of push-cart. Twenty years ago it took months for the outside world to send a message, now one will reach its destination fronT8anada in about 2 day paper money i 3 Portuguese government, but when i Dr. Tucker first went out trading | was the only means of "buying" a | livelihood. The Church in Africa is carrying on its work in three great branches, namely: Evangelism, Education and Medicine. The people are very responive and the native y the African people, and when you con sider that the African laborer only earns about 5 cents a day, this is a great deal. Tg the question, "Do the people stand firm?" Dr. said that on the whole yes, but that they could eogunt on 10 per cent. being backsliders and that they loge about per cent. of their sche s each year. Dr. Tucker ¢'4s that because of the has' is of the Portuguese gove.ifent the natives are turning p£hristianity, and that in anotk-Zu years the west coast, the «th, and central Africa will students out of a class of one- hundred and seventy-eight Kenner, principal of thr eter- |* fo*la few years the "Dark Continent" ing to make their year, H. 1. | will have indeed become the one of A Entirely Christian. Perhaps in 'Light," and that the work of Dr. Church is doing a very great deal. | Last year $1000 was raised by the | Tucker | very much appreciated by the na- tives. The missionary must mend the body as well as the soul. Miss Barner said it was through the younger generation that they hoped to gain the best results, because the older generation was too hard to change. Miss Barner cited many instances where the hospital had been the means of saving a life that would have otherwise died because of neglect. Miss Barner loves her work and is going back in Septem- ber. The Missionary's Wife "Some Impressions of a Mission- ary's Wife" might be the topic of an inspiring address by Mrs. Taylor of Indore, India. Mrs. Taylor said that owing to the fact that she had no set task, but just the missionary's wife, she had many opportunities of service, The great problem was "how best to use the time and strength one has to the service of God." She pictured for us: the life of India as she saw it. How former ly the men only occupied the church at a service and the women sat outside, but now the men and wo- men occupy the same room, the men on the one side and the women on the other; the women with their veils discarded but still sitting out of sight of the men, while the na- tive pastors conducted the service. Formerly one or two perhaps of a family were baptized, now the whole family together. Mrs. Taylor said that gowth had taken place and that Christianity could do much for India.

Under competent supervision and with ¢he help of a team of horses lent by a Mont- real contractor the unemployed have cleared and levelled a space somewhat smaller than a regula- tion football field. The first soccer game was played recently. General Sir Eric McCuaig, chairman of the Mont- real 'Relief Committee, kicked off in a match between two teams made up from the rank™of Mont- real's single out-of-works. Horse- shoe pitching is a favorite pas- time in the mew park. Post Office employees have donated a set of bats and balls and a restaurant company has offered a gelection of sporting 'goods.

NEW PLAYERS JOIN MAPLE LEAFS Toronto, July 8--While Valter Miller and Bots Nekola, the new left-hand pitchers, obtained by the Leafs from Columbus and Newark, respectively, reported yesterday neither Outfielder Joe Hunt nor Infielder Clarke, also. from Colum- bus, arrived. It seems Hunt and Clarke were on a fishing trip at St Paul during a day's layoff by the Columbus team, and at the time the deal for them was put through. Na- turallv there was a delay in notify- ing the players to join the Leafs. Then thev had to return to Colum- bus before coming on to Toronto. They are expected in this morning, Fred Henry, the Montreal first- baseman, also failed to put in an appearance yesterday, and there is now some doubt if he will ever join the Leafs, Frank Shaughnessy, the general manager of the Royals, in- formed Lena Blackburne yesterday that the Montreal Club had a chance to sell Henry to an Eastern League club for cash. Consequent- ly 'Manager Blackburne has about given up hope of obtaining him for the Leafs. Lena will get in touch with the Boston Red Sox to-day to see if they have a first baseman available, If Clarke arrives this morning, as expected, he will go to short and Ollie Sax will move over to third, Ralph Michaels still being laid up with a sore shoulder and back. Jack Rothrock will shift back to the out- field, playing centre, with Hunt in Jeft and Selkirk in right. Until a first baseman arrives Pete Stack probably will play that position.

Hospital Work Indin Miss Maud Barner, Superinten- dent of the Bellabella Hospital, gave an interesting address on Wed nesday night. Bellabella, which is an Indian village of 400 inhabitants, and is reached only by canoe, lies on the Pacific coast over 300 miles north of Vancouver, Here in this village, far from the access of man, five white people are working patiently and unceasingly, for the Kingdom of God. Although the vil- lage has only 400 souls it would seem that the hospital was unnec- cessary, but the hospital serves an area of 300 square miles and is mn diers' plot.

My career is the plantation." Thus did Julia Peter- kin, on a recent visit to New York, explain her aversion to lit- erary teas and the atmosphere which surrounds authorship. Tall, red-haired, the author of "Scarlet Sister Mary"' and "Bright Skin" shakes hands with a working-woman's grip. "When I married," she said, "I was thrill ed at the life ahead of me. I saw servants and parties; but I goon realized my responsibility. "Here was a community ex- pecting me to be considerate and truthful and fair. If the price of cotton went down, IT must plant in asparagus, The people must be fed and clothed and provided with work." One of the big moments of her life was whem she escaped the fear that on her husband's sou- thern plantation she was so far away from the world that her life would not count. "I gudden- ly knew that wherever yon are, life is going om, and you cannot be out of it." Feminism as such does not in- terest her.
