Baptist Women
JubiIate Service

On three days, october "a, % and 26,
will be celebrated the twenty-fifth anni-
versary of the organization of the Wom-
ans Union Missionary Union as an Or
ganized body. An elaborate program
has been arranged. There is to be in
addition to the choir> of upward of 100
voices; there will be representatives of
all the churches and mission posts OF
the union. The choir has obtained the
services of Percy Foster as solo leader
and Miss Darlington as soloist. On
Friday night it is proposed TO stage
two pageants taken from Darkness
and Light" by McGunn. In these
pageants about 300 people of all nations
will participate Liberia, for instance,
will be represented by negroes from one
OF the missions.
1t is interesting to note that the
Woman's Union has more complete
and efficient organization than any
body of its kind in existence. In addi-
ton to the many stations and posts in
all parts of the world, the union main
tains thirty-five mountain schools,
where 5000 Southern boys are given
free instruction.
The president of the local organiza-
ton is Mrs. c. N Chapman, who is also
the vice president of the nationa! body.
Mrs. Chapman is largely responsible for
the remarkable success which the move
ment has had in this part OF the coun-
try. She is to personally preside over
the meetings to be held throughout the
jubilate. Among those who will assist
are Miss Fannie E. 5. Heck, the presi-
dent of the union and perhaps one of
the most prominent missionary workers
in the world today. There will also be
held the centennial of the Mrs. Ann
Judson, the wife Of Adoniran
Judson. Both of these are far-famed
as missionaries who have been for many
years propagating the faith among the
throughout the world
Mrs Judson was the 11rst woman MS
sionary in the world. 1t is an interest
ing coincidence that the centennial
OF the Judsons entering on
this work falls at the same time as
the anniversary of the Woman's Mis-
Union. These two most i'm
portant movements in the Baptist
are together attracting the at
tention Of Baptists throughout the land.

Dan Crawford Here.

Washington is to have visit from
the great missionary and explorer, Dai
Crawford, who will be here from Octo-
Der Is to 81, as the guest of the Rev
DR.. Jas. T. Marshall. Of West st. Pres
byterian Church. 1t is well known tha;
David Livingstone's desire was to reacl
the sources of the Nile before he. died
and that this desire was never realized
What was denied to Livingstone wa,
granted to Dan Crawford. He has beer
described as a man who has shot NOR,
lions than Theodore Roosevelt ever saw
who has met the African negro In G
Jungle as dense as LIVINGSTONE eve,
knew, and who for an unbroixen stretci
of twenty-three years has carried tn,
word Of God and the white mani
knowledge hundreds Of miles into tn,
Dark Continent. Much interest has beer
awakened by his book. "Thinkfn<
Black" a brilliant bit Of missionar,
literature.
