Other chemicals from the Penn

WASH TON - President

OF HIS WORK in EAST INDIA

several real live dolls to play with in
the form OF baby brothers and sisters.
Besides this it is astonishing how
much amusement both the boys and
girls manage to get out of games and
toys made of sticks. and stones and
bits of string.
These simple village folk are very
likeable. AT first they avoid the mis-
Sionary because they think that he
is out to exploit them as sad to say
the white man has so often done.
But their attitude changes when they
help them. Then they become very
much attached to us. Their affection
and gratitude more than make up for
the comfortable and convenient things
we have left behind.
Nature of Work
Our help consists mostly in reliev-
ing the great spiritual and material
misery of these poor people by opening
schools, supplying medical aid to the
sick and injured, improving living con-
ditions through the introduction Of
sanitation and improved agricultural
methods. In many places we found CO.
operative buying and selling societies.
Oftentimes we render a great help by
providing for legal assistance against
the money Lenders who often take ad-
vantage of the ignorance of the people
to defraud them. Last but not least,
the mission provides food for as large
number of people as it can possibly
afford. 1t is no eXaggeration to say
that out of the 27,OOOOO0 in this prov
ince, 100000 do not have one square
meal regularly every day. Most of the
people suffer great deal from under
nutrition. If our resources were greater
we could prevent much sickness and
many premature deaths
Most of my time is still occupied
at studying 'Hindustani,' one of the
