little Indian village, 80 miles from

Mary Reed, which, when generally
known, will place her name alongside

who have made inspiring tradition of

It's a sort of serial of service, the
story of Mary Reed, which has been
continued for 80 years and which
promises to go on for a good many
more.
Miss Mary Reed, solitary white
woman missionary, presides over the
leper asylum here with it's three
score inmates. She is herself afflict-
ed through close contact with her
charges. That is but part of the
price she has gladly paid to relieve
suffering and to inspire Christian
ideals.
Thirty years ago Miss Reed closed
the door on a life of ease and ma
terial promise in America, journeyed
to this desolate spot 5000 feet up
in the Iimalaya mountains, and Of
then the management of the institu-
ton, maintained by the Methodist
church, has been in her hands. The
financial burdens, as we'll as spirit-
