worked in store for several years.
He was offered better place with
the Wheeling Traction company and

s%fonaries, who have been sent there
By tho different churches. and of the
condition of the women and girls be-
fore the workers were allowed into
the countries.
Miss Eleanor Healy read the intro
duction and as the PROFESSIONS from
the various countries were about to
enter, she announced their coming.
The pageant opened with the pro-
cession Of the choir and by o young
women representing angels. and they
were followed by groups of girls
dressed in the native costumes or
Burma, Egypt, Japan, China and 9TH
or foreign countries. After the songs
by the choir, a girl from ach group
told Of what the missionaries had
done in her country for the benefit of
