is 1apsing back into his old evil ways. These evils the church must fight. The missionaries and the gospel of Jesus Christ arex the only things which can come between these two evils and the Indian. The Indians are a dying race. Not as individuals. for with the educa tion and instruction of the mission aries the death rate is decreasing, but as race they are dying. It is merely case of the survival of the f1ttest. But 1t is because it is a dying race that the church must kneel by the bedside. This is the time when the church of God must stand by the side of the Indian in his time of trouble. Just because he is weak, one of Gods little ones, be- cause he is ignorant and at times stu- pid, therefore the church will take him by the hand and strengthen him and give him hope in the days of his pass ing.
 Work for the Whites.
 The Indians are not the only people for whom work IS carried on in South Dakota There are 80o.0o0 white people there, and the number is ever increasing This is the last frontier of the work for the white men lies in the fact that hundreds of the best young men of the east are fiocking to these frontier towns and cities. to grow up with the country. It is strong and upright young man who can pass through the evils and temptations of the frontier town without falling. The great hope for these young men is to have the church established there be- fore they get there. In many of these new towns the only place that is clean is the little mission house. There are e1o homes there, for the froL.tiersman knows the country and leaves his wife and daughter back east. The dives are the only places of entertainment and recreation for the young men, unless the church gets them first.
 Rev. MT. Biller closed with an appeal for support of the work in his mission field. and at the close an offering for this work was taken.
