United States and Canada. Last

ROCHESTER,, n Y, Dec. 30
mittee of the Student Volunteer
Movement of Foreign Missions, at
present in session in this city, set
forth that the primary and perma-
nent function of the movement is
that of recruiting agency seeking
to enroll a sufficient number Of
well-qualified volunteers to meet
the requirements of the mission
boards of North America. The best
evidence of the efficiency and power
of the Student Volunteer Move
ment is the number of sailed volun-
teers. At the Toronto convention
| in 1902 it was reported that 7SO
volunteers had sailed during the
preceding four years. In the quad
renniunl following the Toronto con-
ventiol and ending with the Nash
vile convention in 1906, 1000 vol
lunteers sailed. During the four
years which have since elapsed, end
| ing with the Rochester convention
1888 volunteers have sailed, OF
nearly 800 more than for the
quadrennium ending with the Nash
vile convention
The total number of volunteers
who have sailed since the begin
ming of the movement in 1886, i!
4,346.
Another test of the rising tide o
practical missionary interest amoni
lstudents is the increase in thei
missionary giving. At Nashville i
was reported that the students o
North America were contributing
$4,000 a year to missionary OBJ
iects. They are now giving 1927,

of bringing Mexico into controversy
and anyway, that if he further dis
cussed matters, his statements might
be misconstrued. Zelaya's visit to
the national palace lasted half an
hour. The introduction was made
by Lieutenant Colonel Cuellara, an
aide of Diaz, and not by the Off
cial introducer of the Ambassadors,
hence the meeting was devoid of
an official character and Zelaya was
received as a private citizen.
To a friend today, the Nicara-
guam visitor said that after he had
been in Mexico for two or three
months he would go to Brussels to
personally superintend the education
of his children.
