BATANGA, KAMERUm, W. AFRICA
Flat Station A. P. NJ,
Nav %. 1918.


1t has been very busy time since
our return. Mrs. Dagger has been
much better. She was sick FOR a
few days on a recent itinerating trip
but is herself again and at work. One
can not keep from work where there
IS so much TO do. We are all of us
almost overwhelmed.
We had a wonderful reception
when we arrived six months ago. The
more common expression was Our
eyes are satisfied" In fact the recep-
ton continues till this day for we are
still meeting some who have not seen
us since our return. This is due to
the extent of the Flat district, over
$50 miles to the East
After barely time to get settled
went to Bantanga for a meeting of
Presbytery. Then with only week
at Flat, Mrs. Dagger and | went to
Fulasi, ~ miles east of Flat where
we are establishing an outpost. On
our return to Flat the evangelists
class held me to very close class work
for two months. Then followed a
communion service at Flat and as
soon as ! could get away a trip to
Endenge, another outpost $50 miles
east. Mrs. Dagger also accompanied
me on this trip from which we have
Just returned.
The trip TO Fuiasi was to get work
started in that place. A site had
been purchased and a native carpen-
ter put to work but very little was
done when we got there. 1t was
hard work trying to get a place fit
TO live in and at the same time to
have building ready for our COM
munlon service announced for the
first Sabbath in Jan. We succeeded
in getting the roof finished and that
was sufficient TO have the service
Here we baptized II and received
ever 100 into the advanced inquirers
class. Before this the people from
this district had been coming to Flat
for such services. We spent Christ
mas and New Years day here. Many
of the people have come under the
influences Of Flat but this was the
beginning of work in their midst by
the missionaries and we had again
many of the delightful experiences
of dealing with those who were
receiving the Gospel with the zest
Of those who know enough to well
come us as the bearer of good tidings
but whose knowledge is SO limited
that the story is new and fresh to
them.
Mrs. Dagger was a great help to the
women who needed a woman's sym
pathy and counsel At the commun-
ion service there were l,lOO present
and more than that at the more re-
cent communion conducted by Mr..
Neal who will probably have TO be
left there for most of his time from
now on. He and his wife are very
much taken up with the possibilities
Of the work there.
The class for Evangelists was
planned TO begin on my return from

POLAR EXPEDITION

Slefanssons Polar expedition has
set out for its destination from Port
Clarnece Bay. Alaska. The expedi-
ton is planned for three years. Polar
exploration and scientific research.
CONTINUED CARNAGE IN BAL
KANS
The useless suicide strife continues
in the Balkans. "The Powers" who
assumed so much Importance in the
settlement Of the war against Turkey
seem to exist in name and paper only.
They are evidently helpless in coping
with situation that means prolong-
ed disaster to each combatant.
ARGENTINE FOLLOWS u. S.
The fact that the Legislators Of
Argentina introduced bill into their
Congress, Tuesday. declaring all
trusts and combinations in restraint
of trade or production TO be unlawful
shows that the United States is not
the only nation in the world that is
suffering from internal ills. Their
bill was formed along the line of our
Sherman Antitrust law and is calcu-
lated to bring much needed relief.
MEXICO RESPONDS
Charles Algara, of the Mexican
Embassay at Washington, informed
Secretary Bryan, Tuesday, that the
Huerta Government has ordered Chas.
Bissel and Bernard Mcdonald to be
released. These men were being held
by Mexican Federals under death
sentence at Chihuahua, Mexico.
AEROLANES AND WARSHIPS
A French aviator, Didier Mason,
working with the Mexican rebels in an
aeroplane dropped four bombs around
Federal vessels in Guaymas harbor
during the last outbreak. No damage
was done but il calls attention to the
possibilities of aviation in time Of
war.
CANADA AND THE ASIATICS
The Asiatic question has crossed
from the United States to British
Columbia, The Fruit Growers Asso-
citation of that country decides to ex-
clude all Asiatics from their member
ship. This resulted in the Chinese
forming an association and sending
out statesmen of their own. Ii is not
charged that the Asiatics wished to
undersell others merely that they are
not good spenders.
JAPAN'S REPLY COMING
A reply TO the last communication
sent by the United States TO Japan,
in connection with the California land
law dispute, is on its way from Toxic.
The Government authorities at Wash.
ington hoped that they had convinced
the japanese, in the long drawn ex-
planation Of international law, that
California had not infringed upon the
rights of the japanese. However, the
nature of the communication now
coming is unknown but Secretary
Bryan is hopeful.

Election Excitement

All thoughtful people feel that there is too much
element elections But just think what would
be with the joining in! The fact that they are
out of the fight helps keep the country cool Just imagine
Mrs Pankhurst conducting political campaign And
imagine her invading all our homes to persuade wives
and sisters to vote against their husbands and brothers
We intend to take of the ladies' but we wish keep
them ladies.

J. F. JarrelI.-All kinds of folks are
necessary for the making Of q world. The
average man, and by man mean woman
too, is adopted to some kind of work,
having bent in a certain direction. This
bent should be followed a. nearly as pos.
sible. The man who is adopted to preach.
ing would likely fail as g blacksmith.
The man with the talent to paint q portrait
or compose an opera would hardly be
success as captain of finance. 1t requires
a. much sense to run farm and make
it pay food returns as it does to run store
or q railroad successfully, but there are
town people who have an idea that any.
body can 60 back to the soil and shine in
the world Of agriculture.
Richard vickers.-Farmers do not
make prices. The consumer is paying
eight cents live weight for cattle inferior
to the kind for which he paid four cents
few years ago. Whyp Four.cent cattle
broke q lot of cattle raisers and they quit.
The 100 per cent raise is the come back.
Try it on again. A biz crop under pre-.
sent conditions make business and money
for every business man but the farmer.
One way to improve this condition 10 to
organize q farmers union and, OF course,
q Grain pool. Another is the same SELF
working proposition that has been spilled
to the cattle industry. We will GROW
more Grain for more profit any time it 10
possible. The third and best way 10 for
everyone to work for, vote for and pay
money for the abolition of every business
that dispensed with which lives upon these
big crops.
William Butterworth.-The custom of
selling implements on long credit came
about originally when farmers could not
pay until they had sold their crops but
it has now grown into q careless abuse.
You think any farmer would have accum.
ulated enough BY time this to be able to
pay down for his tools. As q matter of
fact he has, but he continues to demand
the credit. He may have the money
twice over to pay off his note at the bank,
but he will have pitched his cupidity upon
piece of lend on the other side Of the
fence. He uses the money for that, and
pays only the interest on his note. In
many q country bank there are notes that
have been standing for years. They are
perfectly good and the interest comes
promptly. OF course they do pay for
their implements at last and the blessed
think is that they can but it is careless
habit to allow any little credit to run alonf
this way and It is not fair to the business
interests ofth country, the most business
men have to pay their bills nromptly.
