Not long ago there died on one OF
the small islands OF Micronesia a
young woman named siakwe. The
story OF her life Is a curious tale.
The last time the Morning Star was
in the little harbor at Nukuor. Siakwe
came on board. and asked the cap
tain's wife II she might take the wash
ing OF the missionaries ashore and do
f. The offer was gladly accepted. and
in a few hours siakwe's husband
brought the clean clothes back on
board
The captains wife paid him. against
his protest. and he took the money
and returned 10 his home. But soon
Siakwe came out in her canoe. and
gave back the money. Take il. she
said. Il must not let you think I did
4 for money: there is so little ] can
do to help" So. in the spirit OF Him
Who washed His disciples feet. she
counted Il privilege 10 wash the gar
ments of those who were conveying
the gospel from island to island in
that great ocean world.
AT the time she became a Christian
she had never seen a missionary. She
lived with her husband for six months
on the back side of an island where
there was a mission. and the contrast
OF the people she met with those OF
her own distant island wrought the
change in her heart. She had no
large equipment; but In these six
months she learned to read a little In
the Gilbert Island Bible. and as many
as ten pages IN the English primer.
She learned the commandments and
the Lords Prayer and twenty Chris
tian hymns. went back to her own isl
and, unknown TO the missionaries. and
taught the little population OF Nukuor
all she knew. She scraped the bottom
OF her meager barrel in giving to its
last grain her handful OF meal. And
when the first missionary landed on
her island a few years ago, the PEG
pie were already Christians They
could read ten pages IN the English
primer. recite the ten commandments
and do something toward keeping
them. pray to God In the words of Je-
sus, and they knew both words and
music of twenty Christian hymns.
Although her equipment was
meager, she gave her utmost. and |
her little island
We read in the New Testament that |
IF any man be in Christ, he is new
creature" II Is also allowable to |
read. "1f any man be in Christ. there
Is new creation" Il was not enough |
'or Sialxwe that she became the new
creature which she did. There are
aew heavens and new earth at Nuku-
,r, because one humble life gave its
almost, simple though It was. toward |
he lettering OF the world
There stands on Nukuor little |
'hurch, built in the last few years by
he native people. who have laid up
is walls OF coral rock with their own
lands. and carved its beams OF bread /
Dalm tree with loving II crude art.
And In that church they give OF the
title money they earn by the sale OF
Iried cocoanut for two purposes. The
lrst is that they may put an iron
oof on the church itself and cisiern
'eslde Il. that 30 in time OF drought
he whole island may quench It's thirst
rom the droppings OF the sanctuary.
md the other purpose is that they
nay send the gospel to the heather.
md Il is hardly half a decade since
