OF THE CARNEGIE HERO MEDALS
FOR SAVING THE MISSIONARIES
LITTLE MISS HALLowELL-The Sunshine Poet of America
WRITES

, When We get our sunshine missionary
automobile" C'the subscription fund for
which, was opened by DR.. Haysmer), we
will call and see some OF the warning
spirits, and give them "a cup OF cold
water'-in His name; and "bind up their
bleeding wounds"-of discord.
In the meantime, If any OF our friends,
who are so favored. are pleased to lend
an auto, for an hour sometimes, II will
speed the good cause, and hasten the mis-
sion, by enabling us to see many neces-
| sary persons in the work.
So, may 1 help you, and all help me,
to complete at least this mission-ere,
through my frailty, may be called
away"
What blessing is the helping heart
and hand!
Describing our heroes, It is interesting
! to know that DR.. Haysmer is following
! in "the footsteps of the Great Physi-
clan" in ministering to the sick, through
his charge with DR.. Miller, of the WASH
ington Sanatorium at Takoma Park, D. c.
He is from Nashville, Tenn, and has the
gentle manners and traits OF character
that belong to the Southern gentleman"
AS before described in this paper, he
fought through that awful storm Of wave
and wind, and bleeding from hsilstones,
painfully reached the college in time to
get the saving help for the others.
Mr.. Bergeron is bright New England
boy" from Hinsdale. N. H., a clerk at
the Army War College, while industrI-
ously studying to be dental PLY sician.
He is one OF several who bravely re-
sponded to the life call for volunteers
from the college. Mai. William d. Con-
nor and Capt. William Mitchell, of the
General Stan. u. S. A. and Samuel B.
HOuchen. an engineer in the college, are
Lighter in weight, ran ahead like a dart
and dashed in TO the rescue.
Brother" William Cluff, one of the res
cued missionaries, had already sailed
with his wife for their religious mission
field in Bolivia, South America. Brother
Raleigh p. Robinson. the other rescued
missionary who escaped death, Is a stall
wart agriculturist from California, who
left his home with "kith and kim to take
his preparatory course here in the Ad-
ventists' Seminary. He expects to sail
next month with his wife for their chosen
life mission to teach the gospel OF Christ
TO the heather Zulus of South Africa.
But We hope that ere they leave foT
their far mission home they may help
in the mission here at hand. OF convert
ing many so-called Christians who are
doing many heathen things.

War College OF this city, of which Brig.
