economist pub lishes a very interesting letter from rev james dickson former pastor of stouffvllle presbyterian church who with his bride are now serving on the mission field in formosa stationed at tiahoku as rev mr dickson was quite well known locally we publish extracts of his very interesting letter as follows dear friends we planned to get this newsletter off some time ago but many things have filled our days to overflowing the chief one of these is the study of the language as usual and 1 dare say it will occupy our schedules for some time to come since writing lo you last we have acquired a ford car to help us in our work it is a touring car of the 1926 model but it serves our purpose very well and we find it a great con venience and timesaver we can now reach most of our churches in the north section of our field by car and new roads are opening to many more cities and villages every year for some time we have been going out to a different country church each week end in order to get ac quainted with the preacher and the christian people as well as giving us practise in speaking the language i am sure you would be interested to accompany us on such trips when we arrive at the front of the church we find that it appears very much like our country and small town churches at home except that the home of the preacher is invariably at the rear of the church building and usually adjoining to have the house face the street does not seem to be of the same importance here as it is at home also the location of the house behind the church has certain advantages of conveniences besides being a much cheaper site the entire institution is always very plain and is usually made of brick with cement floors and very few decorations the women sit on one side of the church and the men on the other some of the churches have small organs made in japan which can be bought here very cheap ly but many of the poorer churches cannot afford this luxury so the preacher must attempt to locate the proper key from his memory for the chosen hymns if he is musically inclined or has had the careful in struction of mrs gauld in our mid dle school and college he usually gets along very nicely leading music without accompaniment otherwise sometimes the result is not so pleas ing in many places a church building has not yet been erected although services are held regularly usually these services are held in rented halls very often the hall is situated on the main business street of the town with business houses buying and selling goods on both sides when work is opened up in a nsw place a sign board is tacked up over the door notifying the people that it is a christian church and ser vices will be held every sunday the preacher lives in the rear of the building and is there to talk and visit with those who are interested in the new doctrine at whatever time they come when a service is held in a hall many passing people are attracted in from the street by the sound and the seed planted in their inquisitive hearts which with proper nourishment and cultiv ation over a period of time grows into a firm conviction and we hare eventually a little group of baptized christians who are the nucelous of a church in their community one very interesting event has oc curred since we last wrote to you we have seen a period of great cele work is expected early this spring on the extension of the hydro line from here north on the sth concession to ballantrae alex jones of dicksons hill spent raster in kitchener the tenant in the mill house at

mrs price who is a sister of deceas ed lives in toronto a trustee will be appointed to look after the child rens interest administration be ing disallowed on request of a relative when opportunity comes people to their country and em peror one of the handicaps under which most of our preachers have labored here in the past has been tlrat of a great dearth of reading material in the way of books commentaries and other books which tire helpful in preparation for their work most of the preachers are too poor to buy more than a very few books and there has been no sufficient library of the proper kind available in the island however we have now con ceived of an idea which i believe will prove adequate to their needs we are going to have a circulating library here in taihoku which will be used by any of the preachers on the field they will be able to order any book they wish by maii and re ceive it in a day or two at any point on the mission we have raised over one hundred dollars to date with which to purchase books how ever we need several times this amount to make the library what we wish it to be we also wish to share the opportunity of helping to pur chase these books with those of you in the homeland who care to give us a hand the average cost of books in japanese is about 150 each if you send a check or a money order to me i will see that it is converted into the needed books when thou comest bring the books 2 tim 4 13 even an apostle must read during the christmas holidays we took advantage of the fine weather by taking a little trip into the moun tains of formosa we went to a mountain called arisan which has an altitude of about 9000 feet with peaks somewhat higher nearby the highest of which is 13000 feet at arisan some of the finest moun tain scenery in formosa as well as in the orient can be seen these mountain districts are the home of the socalled aborigines of for mosa who are known more widely as headhunters one of the tribes had succeeded in procuring two heads the day we arrived at arizan we saw many members of a more peaceful tribe who live in the hills near there a most interesting story is told of an incident which occurred in their midst many years ago and which so impressed them thai they have never since attempted to take the head of a human being a chinese man lived among them and won their friendship he was the means of their contact with the out side world and would bring them matches salt and other needed arti cles which they did not have in the mountain he had almost presuad- ed them to discontinue headhunting however on one of their propitious days on which for years it had been the custom to offer a human head your savings account will soon give you a lund for business investments or for an emergency or
