Live in Native House.
Look Not For Comfort.

Some people in America might not
want to live in our house. But we did
not come to Africa expecting to find
ease and comfort. 1t was the needs of
the people that brought us. The God
whom the native worships is the spirit
of some ancestor. He will make offer
ing of meal to the different spirits, be-
cause he fears that if he should offend
one of them sickness or death might
come to his home. He usually accounts
for sickness, accident, and death as be-
ing caused by an offended spirit. We
are here to tell them of Spirit Who
Is greater than all of these spirits; Who
does not hate them but Who loved
them so much as to suffer death for
them.

Birds are Songless.

It takes an American some time toI
adapt himself to his new environment
One who has been accustomed to find
ing chestnut, oak, willow and maple
would be lost in an African forest for
here he would find none of these trees.
The branches are mostly in the top of
the trees. He would miss our Ameri-
can birds also. All the birds that I
have seen here are new to me- In
travelling through the forest one does
not often hear bird sing. The Eng
hsh soldiers said during the Boer War
that, "Africa is a country of waterless
rivers, songless birds, and scentless
flowers -

Ants Eat Houses.

What impressed me most on my jour
ney up on the railroad was the way
Africa had of doing things. One man
said to me before landed in Africa,
Now you must remember that you
are going to another world, and you
will have to leave behind American
methods and ways" This is certainly
true when it comes to building houses
and tilling the soil. To build a house
Of wood is entirely out of the question

Farming Is Expensive.

In many parts of the Belgian Congo
there is good land. This land is gen.
orally found along the rivers and the
streams, and it will produce good crops
without any fertilizer. In many of the
low places three crops can be raised in
one year. But farming on large scale
seems to be out of the question in the
Congo for horses, mules and donkeys do
not live more than FIVE or six months
on account Of the Tsetse fly. Here
some energetic American farmer would
say use gasoline tractor, but even
this is out of the question for gasoline
is $3.50 a gallon. Our only method
then is the native hoe. One native
could work up two acres in a month.
His wages per month would be 6out
ak dollars.

Vegetables Grow Well.

Most kinds Of vegetables will grow
here, and they will grow the year
around. Hardly any kind of fruit trees
will do well in this part of the Congo.
The only fruit trees that know are
pappas, dates and bananas. AS for
grains, corn and millet do the best.
Wheat will not grow on account Of the
rust. American seeds Of any kind do
not do well in African soil. Like peo-
pie they have to be acclimated to their
new environment.
Live in Native House.
We have tried to adapt ourselves to
our environment. The house in which
we live has clay floor. The walls are
plastered with clay and then white
wash is gotten from q white material
found some places in the copper mines.
This white material does not resemble
lime. It is found in powdered form
and is then mixed with water. The
roof of our house is made of grass and
It turns the water very well. A roof
of any other material would be entirely
too extensive.
