was almost bankrupt after
paying the duty. At this end
we pay approximately one
third of the value placed on
our packages as they are mail
ed by you folks, so be sure and
make the value very low on
anything you send and label
all the things fused" then it
will be cheaper for us.
You asked about the Am
erican money. 1t is okay to
send it in an envelope as you
did before provided it's not a
large amount. We get five
shillings for one dollar.
Last week one day Eleanor
and I took two ladies into
Kaimosi Mission to the hospi-
tai and while there we had tea
with a missionary-a German
woman about forty years old.
She speaks quite broken but
is very interesting to talk with.
Being German, she and her
husband and children were all
imprisoned by the English
here. They were separated for
about three years and he was
sent away to South Africa, she
not knowing the reason or
whereabouts. Anyway they
are happy now to be together
and doing missionary work
again. She teaches home train
ing in the schools there at Kai-
mosi. Her experiences have
been quite humorous at times
and we had a good laugh from
several stories she related to
us. After the third and fourth
grade of school the girls and
boys are taught in English.
The aim of the Government of
course is that all Africans will
eventually speak English. Mrs.
May teaches in English and
then if the students do not
seem to understand sufficient
ly she is permitted to explain
it in Kiswahili or their YER
nacular language. She has
been training mothers in child
care using her own five
months-old baby as a living
model. They take turns bath
ing her, etc.
An African will very seldom
tell you he cannot understand
you but rather just do things
his way and then when you
find his mistakes and get af-
ter him he will say he didn't
understand or that he forgot.
This morning I gave a little
talk in Kiswahili for the Nam
dy children. Or I should say
Christmas subject and today's
lesson was about the angel
message for Mary. started to
teach them a song about
Christmas, too. They learn
slowly but love it. I had just
six children. We never know
about the number. One Sum
day it is large and the next
very small. Eleanor and I are
going to use the same lessons
for her Tiriki group and my
Mandy group, so the children
will be learning the same. The
Mandy, as I've said before, are
much more difficult to get in

Harold put in the car but per-
haps we will want some later.
We see lots of native soap in
the market. 1t is similar to
"Fels-naptha" - yellow and
in long square bars and it is
good for general washing.
The work of building and
repairing is progressing. Our
living room is now completed
with plaster-board walls and
ceiling painted blue and ply
wood floors that are oiled and
coated with brown shoe pol
ish missionaries varnish).
Our trunks come in handy for
tables. We are learning all
the missionary tricks as we go
along. The kitchen and pantry
are also near completion-the
wall board is on and the &C.
ment floors have just been
poured, and the chimney start
ed for installing our wood
stove. The doors and windows
are in the process of being
made. So it won't be long I'M
til we are completely settled.
Eleanor and I are hoping
that the insulators and line
wires will soon arrive so Gene
can complete the electric wir-
ing for our house. We certain
ly enjoy it at the Lichty's
place.

every phase of the Christian
work in Zion, I am
In His Service,
Isabel Campbell.
This is the talk Isabel gave
the children in the Kiswahili
language:
I want to teach you the
words of I Cor. 1873 and 4.
This is a picture Of Jesus on
the cross. Jesus died for us all
for you and for me. Jesus
was very good. He did not do
wrong. He did no sin. He died
because of our sins-because
our hearts are terribly black.
This is a heart. Your heart and
my heart. We know these
things are true because the
book of God says so. This is
the book of God, the Bible.
Now the book says that Jesus
was placed in the grave. This
is a picture of the tomb. See
many men were needed to cut
the hole in the large stone in
order to place the body of
Christ inside after he died. But
Christ arose again. He is not
dead now. He was able to
walk again and to heal the sick
people and to preach and for
give sins. This is truly wonder
full. The book says He arose
three days after He died. We
know that these words are
true because the Bible says
they are true.
Look-a long time ago my
heart was like this - very
black. Then one day a Chris
tan said to me, "Do you know
about Jesus? He died for you.
He died for all the people of
the world" 7 said, "No-I do
not want your words. I'm good
