Doing Excellent Work

The September number of the
Missionary Survey, published by
the Presbyterian Committee of
Publication, Richmond Va. con-
tains a splendid picture of Miss
Mary Jones and, under the head
ing, "Oh Lady, Come Help" pays
splendid tribute to this estimable
Highland lady. her faithfulness and
efficiency as a mission worker.
With headquarters at Elkins, W.
Va, in close touch with one of her
chairmen, Miss Jones comes and
goes through her territory wherever
she is needed until she practically
Hives in her suitcase. What this
means to a woman, only a woman
rightly knows, but even "a mere
man" can realize the physical dis
comfort, the mussiness of suitcase
clothes, the longing to feel settled
which everybody con the road"
has, except a tramp, and he at
least isn't bothered with a suit case
Nor is he prompted by the same
motive in his wanderings as this
wee bit of a lady, for it is no Or
binary sense of duty which takes
her up hill and down dale in all
sorts of weather. 1t is not duty,
(not even Duty with capitaD but
that finest of all things, Love-
that rare, fine quality of Love that
is so much higher than just duty.
To few is given the ability to sense
Love that will put others first.
that will submerge ones own COM
fort to the welfare of the Soul OF
another. AS Whittier sings:
1--WE may not climb the heavenly
sleeps to bring the Lord Christ
down."
But to Miss Jones has been given
the gift of translating into daily
living that Divine Love which led
the Man of Galilee to and fro among
the neighbors. 1t takes a fine dis
elimination to be a neighbor and
still finer one to be a friend. When
trouble comes, or sickness, or even
Joy, not many outsiders can come
into home to lend a hand without
intruding. Well-poised, wellbred,
courteous and tactful, with and an
easy grace of manner that makes
her very approachable, Miss Mary
Wier Jones is gaining the conf
dence and the respect of the people
of Tygart's Valley Presbytery, and
they are realizing that she is not
only neighbor, but friend, a
most dependable friend, who comes,
to bring them Life Eternal, and
whose whole time and attention are
at their disposal, who is never too
busy to be interested in what con-
Germs them, never too tired to
listen, never too lnconslderate TO
remember-and to forget-little
peculiarities, never too thoughtless
to overlook things that can't help
happening to mar the days pleas
ure, but always such a presence
that she is welcome guest in every
home and who knows how to please
and to be pleased.
The Sunday Schools that Miss
Jones has organized have been we'll
planned and located. All are pros
pering, and are influencing the COM
munity life to a higher plane.
Wherever possible, they have been
linked to established schools or
churches, which assures their con-
tinuance.

The famous German Fokker has

graceful, almost frail looking biplane.
It Is called spad.

100 miles an hour. On account OF Its

Fighting continues more or less vio'
lently on all the battle fronts in Eu'
rope, but no notable successes are
chronicled. France and the region
north of Salonika have seen the most
intense activity, and in both fields the
initiative generally has been with the
central powers.
Paris and London announce the re-
pulse of repeated German attacks on
the Somme and Verdun fronts.
Sofia records the repulse of eighteen
consecutive attacks by Servian SOL
diers northwest of Saloniki. The Ser.
Wan losses are said to have been
large. Northeast Of Saloniki the Bull
garians apparently without opposition
from the Greeks, have seized a good
part of northeastern Macedonia for
fifty miles along the Aegean.
Italian troops are making progress

gion around Trent. Rome also reports

tacks in the Fassa Alps have lessened
but Rome claims continued progress
there.
