After this demonstration the Ger

into effect many of the American
training methods. With the aid OF a
generous government subsidy they
count on putting a strong team in the

LIQUOR TRAFFIC IN NIGERIA
Women Have Become SO Degraded
Thar They Pawn Their Children
to Get Gin.

One OF the saddest facts in connec-
tion with the liquor traffic is that said
traffic is destroying the work OF oil
the foreign missionary organizations
of the world. 1t was the writer's
privilege to be in London July IL,
l91l, when delegation OF one hun
bred missionary representatives laid
the matter before the British cabinet,
requesting the British government to
call conference of the world powers
in regard to Africa. Bishop Tugweli,
bishop OF the Church OF England,
whose diocese Is northern and south
ern Nigeria. said; THE women have
become so degraded that they pawn
their children to get gin"
The conference OF world powers
was called January, 1912. England,
Germany and one or two other pow
ers were willing to stop this destruc-
ton OF missionary work, but France
and Belgium and Holland refused to
stop the sale to the natives.--Hervey
Wood in the National Advocate.
