the world has been brought to
twelve hundred Indians in Santa

When William E. Vanderbilt,
missionary of the Presbyterian

which he had held services, the
paper in which his Bible and
hymn book had been wrapped. 1t

as an advertisement by CONNER

missionary found the Indians
awaiting him with more than
usual eagerness. They pointed to
the map, from which they had
carefully smoothed the creases,
and told of long study of the
brightly colored p-,ches in an at
