had spent six weeks with the
Mennonite Central committee as
voluntary service worker with
a children'S home in Lavercan-
tiere, Lot, France. He was also
n Spain for two months in 1856
in a voluntary service work
camp.
In 1857 he left his law office
to serve for two years with the
Mennonite Central committee. He
first spent six months as a cul-
tural exchange visitor in the
United States. After that he was
assigned to various service prof.
ects in Spain, France and Ger
many. When an organization
called Eirene and more formally
known as International Chris
tan Service for Peace was or
ganized by the Mennonites, the
Church of the Brethren and 9TH
er denominations, he was ap-
pointed as the first project di-
rector in Morocco. He extended
his service six months beyond
the two years and has been there
until recently.
That Mr.. de Jonge is well Quail
flied to teach French is indicat-
ed by the fact that he has spent
some time every year since 1916
in the French speaking area of
Belgium, and some time in
France in every year since 1851.
He knows Paris well and is ia
miliar with most of France. Mr..
de Jonge also speaks Spanish
and German and has training in
Latin and Greek.
1t is hoped that visa and pas
sage may be arranged so that
Mr.. de Jonge can be here by
the first of September. He will
be replacing Mrs. Kenneth Lug
inbuhl.
