corning the education of young men
who are to be the future leaders OF
our work In France and North At
RIGA. The necessity for Immediate
action was recognized and the matter
earnestly debated. A splendid prop
erty most conveniently located at the
very gates Of Grenoble, Is already UNI
der consideration, But, alas. the mon
ey with which to buy II ia yet TO be
secured. A conference committee is
working on this whole question. and
definite steps are soon to be taken.
Bishop Nuelson has endeared him
self to the church in France by his
brotherl!ness. his absolute sincerity,
and his genius for administration, In
spite of the tremendous European
f1eld he has to cover, he has grasped
the essential features of the French
situation, and this knowledge Is con-
stantly evident In his administration
of the work.
"The workers OF our mission were
enthusiastic in the praise of the Sun
day school methods as explained by
DR.. Hartman. Of the board of Sum
day schools, on his recent visit to the
Savoy and Bourgneuf
"A new era Is surely dawning for
our work among the children Of
France
"Dr. Taylor made us short visit
going pretty thoroughly over the
Savoy. and looking into the work of
the chief appointments His ad-
dresses were greatly appreciated by
our people. A profound impression
was made everywhere he went be-
cause of his tact, enthusiasm ana
spirituality. His visit contributed not
little to the winning of our peoples
confidence and to the strengthening
Of Christian fellowship between the
MethodIsms OF the two great repub-
lies"

"Of special interest is the fact that

For the sake of charging its

Refuses FurIough.

A noble young missionary Of the
Southern Baptist board who, with
his wife. had been granted furlough
to come home and rest stands at his
post in China. Two OF the strong men
who stood near him have fallen in
death. He writes that the needs are
SO great that they will not accept the
furlough now. He says. You see.
we need reinforcements more than
we need rest. Oh. that GODS people
at home would give out of their album
dance to pay off that burden of debt
that Is crushing down so heavily, and
to send achievements to the field;
China Is now wide open to the gos-
