DAVENPORT AND DAVENETTE SPECIALS


 DAVENETTE SPECIALS One golden oak davenport, upholstered in black chase leather, in good condition and a real bargain for only $10.45; one mahogany davenport, upholstered in black chase leather, only $10.45, also one fumed oak davenette, used only a very short time, but not abused in the least; in fact, it could not be told from a new one, a $75 value, only $44.95; also one fumed oak davenette suite, absolutely good as new; a $125 value, only $87.45; now if you are thinking of buying a davenette suite, don't think this one would not suit you just because we told you it had been slightly used; we could put it right along with new suites. of the same quality that sell for S135 to $150 and you could not tell the difference; look at this bargain before you buy.

with headquarters at 211 Lumber Ex-

''The object of obtaining these facts
IS to assist us in learning the definite

lines,'' said Mr. Mann .'In obtaining
this information we have adopted a
program of thorough preparation 4and
accuracy rather than speed"
County chairmeE for carrying on

CENTRAL SOUTH AMERICA
is MOST NEGLECTEDsSPOT

The greatest stretch OF unevangel-.
lied territory in the world lies in the
center of South America, including the
interior of Brazil, Venezuela, Colum-
bia, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, and Para
quay. An irregular territory some two
thousand miles long and from five
hundred to- fifteen hundred miles in
width, would only include two or three
missionaries. In northern Brazil there
are seven states, with populations
ranging from that of Maine to that of
New Jersey, with no foreign mission
ary.
In spite of the awful needs, as great
in the interior of South America as in
China or Africa, American mission
boards do not support one hospital in
all that continent.
There are about 200 missionaries,
including wives, and 1860 native
workers, conscientiously but made
quately covering the field. The gen
eral average has. been one evangelistic
missionary for every $4,000 people.
The island world of Malaysia equals
in total expanse the area of the United
States. It is the largest and the most
fertile undeveloped Asiatic territory,
containing $4,000 square miles, with
population of 5O,497 ,O42. There are
about 45,O0g,00O Moslems To win
these multitudes to Christ is the stu,
pendous task which confronts the
Christian Church in Malaysia.
IS The problem for Christianity in the
Japanese Empire is to enlist. the vision
and energy Of 78,723,5OO progressive
Asiatics in the cause Of Christian de-
mocracJ.
