is being made. Coffee-plantations flourish, land
experiments are being carried on with sugar,
tea, and tobacco. "The natives come 200
and 800 miles to work in the plantations, and
are the very men who a few years ago Ievas-
tated the whole region The white population
live in great comfort, possess good and substan-
tial houses, and have built a church which, Mr..
Thomson says "would do credit to many q
London suburb,"-a somewhat backhanded
compliment. "It is like a miniature cathe-
dral, with beautiful apse, dome, double tow
cred westfront, and many graceful adornments.
It was built entirely by the natives, under
the supervision of the whites. The natives
baked the bricks, made the lime, hewed the
timber, and did everything that a skilled la
bourer at home would do. All the materials
were found on the spot except the internal fit
tings, the glass, and some portions of the roof
ing" Mr.. Thomson believes that "the pro-
blem of residence in Central Africa has prac-
tically been solved in Nyassaland, and On the
same lines may be solved elsewhere" and
also the problem of training the natives to do
useful work. We trust and believe this is
true of Blantyre; but then, only q compare
lively small portion of Tropical Africa is SO
happily situated as the Shire Highlands.
