Uitenhage, which is twenty-one
miles north of Port Elizabeth. The
mobs threatened my life in several
ways while | was there. The elders
out in the world today have about
the same mission as did Paul and
Peter of old, with their prosecutors.
Part of the reverend gentlemen in
that city were in their highest glory
when they were working against us.
But they were too cowardly to come
forth with bible in hand and prove
us false.
Port Elizabeth has a population
of about $4,000 whites and fully
that many colored people. This
town that | am laboring in at pres
ent is nearest of being like the
towns in America of any that have
yet visited. This place is one of
the noted fruit-growing towns of
South Africa. There are some large
railroad shops here and great deal
of locomotive and car building is
carried on. Wages are not as good
as they might be. The government
owns the railroads and has no COM
petition, which makes the wages of
the employees a low figure.
Since the Boer war South Africa
has been divided into different colo
nies: Cape colony, Orange River
colony Tor the Free State), the
Transvaal. Natal and Rhodesia.
On May 30, 1910, there was
Union Day, held and celebrated
throughout the whole country, and
now 1t Is the United South Africa,
so we South Africans have got
U. S. A. But there is no u. S. A.
like the one under dear Old Glory,
the Stars and Stripes.
1t seems strange to think that we
are in the dead of winter here now
in June, July and August, while
you people at home are in the warm
est part of the year. But the WIN
ters here are so mild that fruits and
vegetables can be raised twelve
months in the year.
| have seen but very little farm
ing carried on in this country, but
they tell me that there is great
deal of farming in Natal, Rhodesia
and Orange River colonies.
South Africa is a rich country if
they would cultivate the ground
more than they do.
Ostrich raising is a great industry
Graham guardian., 1910-08-26

in this country, and the feathers are
sold great deal cheaper than at
home. They say there is a great
deal of money made in ostrich rails,
ing if it is managed right.
johannesburg is where the gold
mines are located. 1t is very busy
city, with a population of over
100, 900 inhabitants. 1t is said to be
the richest gold mining town in the
world, while Kimberley is the dia-
mond country. | haven't had the
opportunity of visiting that part of
this country yet, but would like to
before returning home. A new field
has just been opened up in Pretoria.
We have twelve elders here, but
although there are but few of us,
we do all we can to show the people
the authenticity of the immutable
truth we are proclaiming. The
words of the Savior are true; the
harvest truly is plentiful, but the
laborers are few. There is great
work to be done in this land and |
only wish we had the missionaries
to do it with.
would like to say a few words
to the young men of the Church of
Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints:
If ever you get a call to come to
South Africa on a mission do not
hesitate or ponder over the distance
you will haye to travel before you
reach your destination, but take my
word for it and say, well, | have
got one of the grandest trips in the
whole world before me. wouldn't
take small fortune for my trip al
ready, besides what | have planned
for the future, and that is my trip
around the east coast and through
the Holy Land and Paris, and back
through London, England.
Dear Editor accept my thanks for
your paper. 1t is a welcome visitor
to me, conveying as it does news
from my home in the Gila valley.

ARIZONA ORANGE CROP
Leads Rest of Country . ir
Production

California and Florida for years
past have been making an awful
noise about their oranges, but each
year the Salt River valley product
brings the highest price on the
Eastern market and is more sought
after by the buyers than any other
oranges in the world.
According to the crop report of
the department of agriculture,
Arizona led the rest of the country
on August lst with the orange crop,
100 per cent of normal; Texas was
next with 95 per cent. The crop in
Florida was 65; Mississippi, IS;
Louisiana, II; California orange
crop, 81, lemon crop, SO per cent.
The only other state where the
lemon crop is reported is Florida,
where it was II per cent.
The above report will undoubted-
ly spike the guns of California and
Florida for some time to come.

ATTRACTIVE SPEEDEVENTS
Will Take Place at Territorial
Fair at Phoenix

Although the greater part of the
work of preparation for the 1910
Territorial fair to be held at Phoe-
nix, November 7th to 18th, has
been directed by the fair commits
sion looking to the Improvement of
the livestock and the industrial de-

sued at Phoenix.
More horses will race this year at

each afternoon of fair week a well
balanced program will be given.
For the Eastern horses the purses
amount to $2l, 900. which includes
the famous Arizona Copper Stake.
For Arizona horses there will be
So, 500 and for runners about So, 900.

A RICH COUNTRY
Interesting Letter from Louis

South Africa
UNITED SOUTH AFRICA.
July 13, 1910.


EDITOR GUARDIAN will soor
be a year since | arrived here in my
primitive field of labor, East Lon,
don, Time flies like wings of light
ming and we cannot recall it; and
the fact is | don't want to recall
any of my time that | have spent in
the mission field since | left my
home May a. 1909. | am having
the most enjoyable time of my life,
When | used to go to school and
later on through life to other amuse-
ments, such as are enjoyed at home,
thought they were the happiest
times of my life. But now have
had the chance of investigating the
other side and | find this to be by
far in the superlative degree.
You will note by the heading of
my letter that | have been changed
to another field of labor. During
this period of time labored three
months in Port Elizabeth, which is
a seaport town off the coast of the
Indian Ocean, in Algoa Bay. Port
Elizabeth is called the Liverpool of
South Africa on account of the
great amount of shipping. 1t is the
largest ostrich feather exporting
town in the world. | had the privi-
lege of going through the feather
market hall. There is one of the
largest pipe organs in South Africa
in this hall, which is used for the
public on different occasions.
While | was laboring in Port Eliz-
abeth, our friends grew so violent
that we were compelled to fulfil one
of the Sayior's commands: when
they persecute you in this city flee
into another" Matt. 1O:14.23. So
we decided that more good could be
done by coming into this city of

TEMPE NORMAL SCHOOL
Items of Information Relat-
ing to Opening Of the
Institution

The next term Of the Tempe Nor
NAL School of Arizona will begir
Monday, September 18th, and from
present indications a large attend
ance is assured. During the pas
year the manual training and do
mestic science departments have
been greatly improved, and the
completion of the new auditorium
and gymnasium contributes mater
tally to the success of the work
During vacation the dormitories
have. been thoroughly renervated
and partially refurnished, and every.
thing possible has been done to make
them model homes for students.
For the ensuing school year the
dormitory charges will be $16.5C
per school month of four weeks,
payable monthly in advance. This
charge includes board and furnished
room, steam heat, electric light,
running water in rooms, use of
baths, parlors, pianos, etc. The
dormitory furnishes all necessary
bed and table linen. An annual
registration fee of five dollars is
charged to students who enter the
regular normal courses or the ac-
ademic course. Pupils in the train
ing school do not pay the registra-
ton fee. The cost of books is from
eight to fifteen dollars per year, ac-
cording to classification. Incidental
expenses, including laundry, gym
nasium, ETC., depend largely upon
the economy of the student.
Students who have completed the
eighth grade of the public school
are admitted to the first of the Nor
NAL course without examination.
Students who have completed a
four years high school course above
the eighth grade are admitted to
the junior class to pursue a two
years professional course. Credits
from partial high school course
are given on the Normal course in
proportion to the amount of such
work completed. Graduates from
a four years high school course hav-
ing professional work to their credit,
may receive proportion credit on
the two years professional course,
but such students will be required
to take at least one years work in
the Normal before graduating.
The training school admits pupils
of all grades of the public school,
but such pupils are not admitted
to the dormitories except in special
cases where the maturity of the
pupil might be considered.
Application for entrance should
be accompanied by statement of
former school work; and if possible,
grade cards, testimonials and diplo-
mas should be furnished. Prospec-
tive students will find it greatly to
their advantage to enter the first of
the term, if possible. Catalogues
and other information will be fur
nished upon application to:
