In speaking of his travels from
place to place in the region of the
Congo, he told of the use the natives
put our money to. There is no such
thing as currency out there and they
use Our silver and paper dollars for
ornamental purposes. Bright colored
beads, brass tacks and the like will
buy anything in Africa.
Last night a twenty dollar bill was
offered by Dr.. Mcguire to the boy or
girl in the audience who could pro-
nornce the unpronounceable name of
his interpreter, but none of them
made a stagger at the African handle.
Code is Convenient.
The natives have convenient
sense of honor and code of morals.
It's all right with them to steal any
thing, if person can get by with it,
but the sin of the transaction is get
ting caught. And here in the United
States, DR.. Mcguire said, if a person
steals a loaf of bread, the next day
he's brought up into court and given
sentence. IT man is caught steal
ing big railroad company, he is call
ed fnancier and the following fall
elected as senator to congress.
Free born Americans were hit again
by DR.. Mcguire when he spoke of the
religious ceremonies Of the African
native and he said they do all of the
dances, fox trot, and shimmey n
everything. There's where they orig
mated and there is where they should
&C and stay. They belong to the Can
nibals and not to civilized Americans,

Africa" DR.. Mcguire said in closing
but want to give you glimpse OF
its bright side, too" And he pictured
in brief the work accomplished by
christian forces in that land and what
they were beginning to mean to the
dark country. DR.. Mcguire commend
ed the men and women in the audi
ence last night who We're parents Of
the children present, and said that he
had never spoken before a group of
boys and girls who proved to be such
attentive and interested listeners.
Following the lecture, DR.. Mcguire

to the people in the audience who
went to the platform to see them.
