RECOGNIZES A GOOD WORK
Ex-Presldent Roosevelt Pays Enthusi
astle Tribute to Mission
Hospitals.

In Uganda, Mr.. Roosevelt responded
to an invitation to open new add.
ton to the Mengo c. M. s. hospital.
Mr.. Roosevelt said:
Long before came here I had
known Of the work that was being
done in Uganda. and felt particularly
anxious to see It. Here you have a
particularly intelligent native race,
which has already developed a very
interesting culture of Its own, cul-
ture both political and social. And the
great work must of necessity be to try
to help that race onward, and to try
to do 1t In practical fashion, and to
do 1t SO that the doing of it shall be
primarily benefit to the race, and.
secondly. benefit to your own people
from whom you come.
II have the strongest feeling as to
the good that is being done by the
medical missionary. There must be
some visible fruit in the life and work
Of the man who breaches If his preach.
ing is going to have very great eff
feet upon those to whom he breaches.
That visible fruit can be shown in
many different ways. and one of the
most efficient ways of showing 1t is
by Just such work as is being done in
connection with this building, which
1t will naturally be source of pecu-
liar pride to myself to have my name
associated with. and which now
take pleasure In declaring to be
