Questions for Mission Boards

The JEFFERsoNIAN invites answers to the
questions asked below The Mission Boards
and their champions must open up their
books, and let us know what they are doing,
and how they do it:
Who is responsible for the existence of this
Board of Missions?
CD Were you appointed by the preachers
or by the church members?
(2) How could the people who appointed
you get hearing before you if they wanted
any part of your work altered? Have you
authority over the churches or have they au-
thority over you!
For how long were you appointed?
What do y0u get for yOur services?
As to appointing missionaries:
In selecting missionaries, do you ever APP
point men who out of work at home, or do
you select men who are in constant demand at
home?
Could the men now on the field get as much
for services here as they get on the field?
What are the men who have been on the
field, but have come home doing? Are they
getting as much here as you paid them
abroad? Will you give us the names of some
such?
Have you any hospitals? If so, why2
DO you give any free treatment in hos
pitfalls? If so, why?
Why did you ever establish any schools?
w i"U 10 oc"Sli0 III Cneoe oCnOolS: IL nyCn1ng
but the Bible, why?
Do you give free tuition in these schools to
those studying other things than the Bible?
Why?
Have the converts in heather lands been
true to the truth? What evidence can you
give us that they are loyal to Christ after
they profess conversion?
Do your native converts try to save others,
or do they quit unless they receive a salary
from us! What can you tell us along this line
that will help us to understand what we are
doing In mission work. It is reported that
you pay native workers only one-ffth as
much as you pay Americans who 90 out for
us. Is this true? If so, why?
Is your mission work done to suit the men
on the boards, the preachers, the missionaries
or to suit the people who furnish the money?
Or, is it done just as the Bible directs that it
shall be done?

The fat old debauche, King Edward, is said
to have declared social boycott upon Win

who even looks further
than that-to be premier Of England under
Socialist regime. He is, accordingly, being
given the cold British stare and the cut d.

forms of that rudeness which only "our set"

never downed any one worth while, and no

that he could be corrected and coerced by see

can be.

Acting, perhaps, upon this notice that the
pedestrian of Atlanta had no right to it's
streets, the following night witnessed the most
slckenlng accident, considering all it's details,
that the annals of automobile horrors has
ever chronlcled, in the death of Mr.. Harvey
L. Anderson, one of Atlanta s worthiest citi-
zens His hardware store is kept open until
o'clock on Saturday evenings, for which
reason he felt it necessary to remain at his
business, while his wife went with friends to
see the automobile show. Returning before
he did, she accepted an invitation to remain
with friends and phoned her husband to
come and take her home, which he started to
Go about 10 o'clock. On the way he was
struck down by huge automobile, which
rushed on III panic, leaving his man
gled body In the road, where a second au-
tomobile, going at high speed, further ira
versed it. This automobile sped after the
first one, to bring the culprits back, if pos
sible. Meantime, Mrs. Anderson decided to
60 toward home in the automobile of some
other friends, and on her way, that machine
actually ran over her husbands arm while
he still lay bleeding in the dust of the road.
Thinking him some drunken man, she sent
doctor to his assistance, who barely got him
to the hospital in time to die there Three
machines had passed over his body in quick
succession before any one came to his aid

USEFUL THINGS TO KNOW.
Homely little Rules Of Great Value In
the Kitchen.

There are some homely little rules,
not distinctly new and original, but oh,
so useful! When the boiling vegeta'
BILE has caught. don't try to pry II out
of the saucepan and take all the burnt
taste with 1t, but, rather, plunge the
outside of the saucepan into cold water
a few moments; and when you loosen
the vegetables carefully with spoon
the hardened burnt portion will re-
main In the pan.
When the small cakes in gem pans
have done just moment too long and
seem inclined to stick to the pans, try
the same plan, only less strenuousiy.
Hold the under sides of these hot lit.
tie pans against a wet tea towel, and
the cakes will loosen at once.
After greasing your cake tins with
lard and before pouring in the cake
batter dredge the bottom of the tins
with flour, shaking out all that does
not stick evenly TO the lard. Cake
batter poured in on this dry -four will
rarely stick to the pan after it is
baked. Wet the inside of china or tin
molds with white of the egg before
pouring in gelatin, cranberry or blanc
mango, and the hardened dessert will
not stick when you are ready to dis
lodge it.
So many things have a disappoint
ing way of sticking, and the house
keeper without long memory de
spairs without these occasional re
minders.
