WInch stalks us ike a ghost IN
the night.
WE know that we are all
too prone to indulge in one
type Of food; that because Of
conditions, perhaps over which
we have no control, we take
the path Of least resistance
and use exactly what we have.
It is our opinion that these Is
lands can produce enough
food, and of a wide variety to
supply the essential nutrients
for the body. Many Of our pro-
blems can SO right 10 that
source and if eliminated could
put us well on the road to a
different type of recovery. 1t
is not the first time that in
vestgators have limited at it,
and have attributed our lethar
gy and indifference to poor
health brought about by i'm
proper diet.
FOR our own benefit it
might be well # the LegisIa-
tive Assembly took time out
to follow up this type. Of report
and make definite suggestions
tor relieving this condition. 1t
IS sufficiently important, for
poor health no people can
to improve their econo-
mic condition.

She said she had terrible head
aches that were very painful.
We told her that God could
cleanse her sin and heal her
the minute she believed, so we
knelt with her in the grass be-
side her hut and prayed, and
she prayed a prayer of repent
ance. What a thrill to have a
part in such a wonderful ex-
perience of winning a soul to
Christ! She was a Tirihi and
could not understand Kiswa-
chilli, but Malingati translated
for us.
How we praise God for the
privilege of planting the seed!
He is able to make it take root
and grow in the heart. In the
words of Paul to the CORN

ZION INDUSTRIES
EMPLOYEES CREDIT
UNION TAKES ANOTHER
FORWARD STEP

To anyone who might be in
terested-the Zion Industries
Employees Credit Union Board
of Directors announces that
every shareholders invest
ment is now matched dollar
for dollar with life insurance.
For example, if you invest
$1OO in the Credit Union that
amount is matched with 500
of life insurance to be paid to
your beneficiary should death
occur.
We might say this another
way - the Employees Credit
Union now offers one of the
best ways known to obtain a
fully paid UP life insurance po-
licy and we illustrate this by
another example-if you invest
ZOO in the Credit Union, that
will be matched with $1,000
worth of life insurance, which
is equivalent to a $4,000 paid
up policy to your beneficiary.
The nice thing about all this
is that you continue receiving
your regular dividend on the
amount that is invested even
though this additional feature
is yours when you invest.
It is suggested that if you
should care for more informa-
ton about this that you contact
any of the following directors.

By Fred Richards

Dy TIou hlClldIuS
Zion Gardens comes to press
this week with news of a very
successful ''Senior Glass Play"
and all the local gardens want
ing tomato plants.
The tomato plants are almost
ready now but to be safe from
frost we suggest you wait until
after Mothers Day.
Mothers Day is now only
ten days away and orders are
starting to come in. The most
popular flowers for this holi-
day are the red and white Car
nation, red being worn if the
mother is still living, and white
if the mother has passed away.

We have had several heavy
downpours in the past week a.
long with light showers, with
one storm carrying a streak of
hail stones. I wouldn't have
believed that there could be
hail storms on the equator if
I hadn't seen it for myself.
Most of the natives are busy
planting their ''shambas,"

corn, beans and sweet pota-

dens they are the dominating
products. To the heather these
things are considered more i'm
portant than food itself. What
a pity!
Eleanor and I have planted
a samll plot of ground, in fact,
two plots. One is near the val

Gas we call them) the other
is to the front of our house,
where we can keep an eye on
it. We plan to grow corn, beans
and sweet potatoes.
We have acquired two new
residents at our house - one
is Buster and the other is
Jeepers. Yes, they are men,

are happy to have them. Bus

the "mwivi" (thief) trouble.

are any providers about the

This week we received the
three additional boxes of cleo
