The entertainment on Wednesday
evening was most enjoyable. every
number on the program was good. The
paper by Mrs Barker on The Kinder
galtcn in relation to the home" was an
excellent one and was heartily appre-
cirted by those who heard it. We only
wish that every mother could have
heard it. No one could listen TO it with
out having an exalted idea regarding
kindergarten work and most earnest
desire that our little ones, who are to
be the men and women OF the future,
should be early in lie instructed in
right principles and led into right ways
OF living and acting. The music was
furnished by the Acolian QHartelte who

Religion and Rum.

What policy can be more short sighted
than TO set mIs5ionerles to work trans
lating the Bible and teaching theology
while the traders are circulating rum
among the natives SO freely that it al
most impossible TO assemble sober
congregation.
''Ihe spilituous liquors poured So
treciy into these districts are neither
more nor less than liquid fire-mere
polson-and are rapidly destroying both
soul and body."-Archbishop of Canter-
bury
The natives who flock to the mining
districts return to their kraals drunken
and irredeemably depraved. 1t is said
that boys and girls of fourteen and fif-
teen receive their wages in rum, and
| there are parts of the country where
! there Is practically no other currency
/ One of the most pathetic features of
! this situation is the pitiful appeals
/ which comes from the natives them
selves. Sensible of their weakness they
have appealed again and again to Christ
ian people of this country and the GOV
eminent of Europe 10 protect them
from a temptation they are powerless
to resist.
In several populous districts there is
shown an intense desire to shake off
the drunkenness which arises from con
tact with our civilization. Cannon
Farrar makes the statement that SO
long ago as 1888 the natives of the dia-
mond fields besought the Cape Parlia-
ment to have public houses removed
from them for a distance of six miles,
and their petition was refused.
One native king begged that the
traffic might be stopped, saving that if
1t were not his people would have to
abandon their towns and villages and
90 out into the deserts and escape the
white mans curse.
Another king on the gold coast APP
pealed 10 the Governor. Sir Brandforth
Griffith, asking only that her magestv's
representative would instruct the mer-
chants Of Addah to pay for palm oil in
cash instead of jim, but even this was
denied him.
In view of these facts is it not time
that Christian people protest against
this VIII olcsalc decentralization If the
natives of Africa.
