need of reinforcement. In the morning he spoke at
the First Church. at p. NJ. at the University Col
lege of Medicine to the students at P. NJ. in the
Second Church, and at P. NJ. in the Grace Street
Church. Mr.. Crowley made excellent impression
by his direct narrative of the story of mission
work and its growth. He is receiving contributors
for the sending out of additional missionaries some
of whom ready to go when the funds secured.
CAPE CHARLEs-We occupied our new church the
first time March 24th. An overlooking congregation,
morning and evening, greeted Rev. George w. Law
son, Of Park Place Norfolk who gave two very
strong sermons The Lord hath done great things
for us, whereof, we are glad"

MIR. Crowley full of zeal and untiring energy
for the cause which he has undertaken. Although
in this city only few days, he made addresses in
Leesburg and Alexandria before the Presbyterian
Ministers Association, the Washington City Bible
Society, at Howard University, and in the Central
Church. The simple yet thrilling recital of the work
done in the Congo mission by the little band of
and women who have labored there faithfully since
the early nneties, touched all who heard him, and
to the people of our church direct call from
God to assist in sending missionaries far off
Africa. Over two hundred dollars have been raised
through the Central Church for this cause.
How can the Church of Christ fail to respond 10
such appeal? Four hundred converts in ten years
timel Men, and children eager to receive the
bread of life, and so few tell them of the blessed
Saviour who died that they might live! Truly the
harvest is plenteous, but the laborers few
The Southern Church has urgent duty at
present than to send reinforcements to the Congo
mission We members of the Central Church will
follow Mr. Crowley with great interest on his travels
through the South and may God move the hearts If
many to respond generously to the call for mis-
sionares for Africa.
