each $50 600; Africa, one to each 300 600; Japan,
one to each 2l5,OOO; Burmah, one to each 200 900;
Nearly all the missionaries in Africa are
around the coast. In Central Africa and the
Soudan there is as yet only one missionary to
each 100000 people.
THE donations to the American Board for
the month of May are s9l4.SO smaller than the
