lisslonary Column. 1 BY THE SOCIETY. "No city, except the Heavenly, is safe without a temple." "World-wide Methodism was never more aggressive than in the year of our Lord, 1906. It brings to com-1 pletion every week more than forty homes of worship. l "Our missionaries at home and abroad are multiplying. Their con verts are many. The congregations i -alled into being by their message I must be housed. Nothing short of this will conserve their success." Bishop Hoss reports our work in Brazil in good condition, better than he found it a year ago. More mis sionaries are needed, as four are t boming home for a year's furlough. ['he financial condition of Brazil is c very embarrassing to our work, but a it this time no debt rest upon any of t she stations. Bishop Chandler writes in the New C )rleanis Advocate: "The annual meeting of our for- s sign Mission has just closed at Seoul. i'he year has been one of success, the membership of the churches advanc ing from 759 to 1227,besides 1694 pro jationers, who will not be received into full connection until instruction p s~d examination. The people are t burning to Christ as I have never b Been in any field. Ipdeed it may be a laid that the Korean churches have g peen in a state of revival for the t past three years, the revival move- g aent growing in power each year, Wd still advancing with increased ~omentum. The harvest is simply G ot of all proportions to the strength c our force. No church in Korea S ~ a mission force adequate to the o d of the hour, and least of all has n pm' church. It is reported that at n of the stations of the Presby- ti eians as many as 1100 adult per- a have been baptised and received tý the church during the current SIf we take into account the e of our mission and the number inissionaries we have engaged, the owth of our membershiip s not less u henminal. The mission must be benforced speedily with more mis- r $ionaries, and provision made at once a, for training a native ministry. "The whole population of the Sa- o: "The whole population of the Sa moan Islands is now Christian. There s probably no community-in America 'where family prayers are as generally )bserved as in Samoa. The people are eager for the education of their chil ýren; the givey liberally to the sup port of their churches, and send out Their own missionaries to New Guinea and Micronesia. What do some home . ristians think, who profess they bo not believe in foreign missions? She Samoans share their privileges with others who have not the gospel. aould that all who profess Christ really possessed Christ and lived as e did! i'"The most generous church in America consists of one hundred and wenty Kiowa Indians in Oklahoma, Shose gift to missions last year was 1000. God is not short of money r missions, neither is the bulk of ahristians short of money. Hard .earts, rather than hard times, cause trouble." The week of prayer for our For ~ign Missionary Society includes our ational Thanksgiving Day. Let all those who have mite boxes remember jto bring them on that day, and we .ill have our "openihg." We trust !they have been very thankful this year, Land that the boxes will be quite heavy. "What shall I render unto the Lord for all his benefits towards me? I will pay my vows unto the 'Lord now in the presence of all his rpeople. Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our Salvation." The money collected in these pink boxes goes to p pay the salaries of our mission r girls, Ada Parker and Helen IJohnson. So let us be generous, as God is to us. ICome to the meeting Saturday ternoon, at 3 o'clock, in the Meth i8; Church. The Advantages of Louisiana. When we read such bracing truism ontained in an article in a recent of the Baton Rouge State, the paper of the State of Louis a feeing comes ones us that, all ur pople have no cause to h6 r bf boll weevil; that on, e~fellw;' fed on old spike-headed, hump-backed, onary cuss, we defy you." With such a country as ours there is no possibility of starving. "The world is ours," and no failure of one crop can not t hinder us from "roosting high," as the i: old darkey would say. "It is an old, old story, the advan tages of Louisiana," says the State. P "Every candidate for office makes it ii part of his platform, every cursory i visiting newspaper correspondent kills v quantities of space on the theme, and the "orators of the occasion" always t utilize it either in exordium or per- p oration. f However, it is like a good son, a clever story-worth while rememder ing, even worth while telling over c again every once in a while. Every- v body knows that cane, rice, cotton, d tobacco, garden truck, fruit, several t sorts of hay, and many varieties of cane are subject to speedy production at Louisiana hands. Everybody knows r that Louisiana has more cypress standing than remains in all the rest g of the world put together; that there o is enough pine remaining to last for several decades; that sulphur, oil, natural gas, and good artesian water are obtainable in many certain and possibly in many yet unascertained sections of the commonwealth. Everybody knows, also, that the possibilities of the State are not ex- t ploited to their one-third capacity, b that a quadrupled population could n be sustained without filling the vacant spaces; that the waterway system fi given by nature is more perfect than u bhat enjoyed by any other equally ii great area of territory; that it is f, 'uilding more railroads right. now than. almost any other commonwealth; that it has the finest harbor on the gulf coast; that it has more miles of gulf coast than has any other Gulf p state; that its fish are the best; its a )ysters the choicest; its game the nost plentiful; the climate (don't h nention the equinoxes-scientists say o they have no effect) the most equable t' mnd mildest; its position with regard g ;o the coming markets of the world tl ,he most advantageous. g Everybody knows these things- a mt sometimes they are known so ri vell that persons accept them as t natters of everyday fact, without a ising them as stock-in-trade to dis- k lay to the woulded visitor, or as b *easons for certain lines of business R Lction. People and resources-if both are >f the proper sort-will bring about ilmost any desired result. It takes he people, however, and people with nitiative, courage, imagination. More w )eople are coming-many are here, ir lative to the soil-the resources are la vaiting. Bayou Chlcot Notes. Griffith House, Oct. 30. At the Griffith House this week were the handsome Mayor of New Iberia, Mr. R. P. Delahoussaye; and also Mr. Chas. Gute-Kunst, of St. Martinville; St. Landry's popular drummer, R. L. Sanford, of Alexan dria, La.; Master Charlie Sanford, Alexandria; J. C. Woodside and J. O'Quin, of Milburn; S. J. Meadows, Fort Worth, Texas; R. S. Robinson and Walter Seals. Rev. Robert Harry, of Washington, supped with our minister one day this week. J. Sesperecz, Hlink P. 0., Austria Hungary, Frencisin Countayte, Europe, registered at the Griffith this week. Miss Cammie Erlich was a pleasant caller at the Griffith House this week. Mr. Henry Kelley, of Gold Dust, is with us this week. Capt. Samuel Haas, with his es teemed wife, returned from Ashville, N. C., where they remained all sum mer in search of health. We all ex tend them a hearty welcome home. Mr. P. T. Griffith and son made a flying trip to Elmbay on Sunday. Our school director will build a High School in Bayou Chicot. Henry has the brains and the aim, and what he says he will accomplish will soon come to pass. The, need for educa tion in this section of our parish is very great, and higher grade of teachers employed would facilitate this matter. OBSERVER. May Quit Leesville.. The Beaumont Jourrnal is authority for the statment that there is a pos sibility of the Central Railway of Lou isiana constructing its line from a connection with the Kansas City Southern into New Orleans by building from Pickering. It was the original intention to build from Leesville, but heavy grades had to be overcome and land in that vicinity was held at high prices, so the operation were called off until a new line of lower grade counid l surveyed Mr. Holder In Lafayette. The Lafayette Gazetee of last Sat urday contains a quarter-column write up of a very successful revival meet- I ing which just closed in that city. The meeting was under the direction of the local pastor, Rev. J. D. Har per. Says the Gazette. "The preach ing was conducted by the noted rev ivalist, Rev. A. C. Holder of Opelousas, who delivered forcible and eloquent - sermons twice a day during the meet ings to large, appreciative congrega tions. Rev. Holder's clear and logical presentation of gospel truth made a favorable impression on all who at tended and brought conviction to the hearts of many. About fifteen con versions and seven accessions to the church were among the immediate visible.results of the revival, but no loubt much good seed has been sown, that will bear fruit in the years to Some." The Sunday before the close of the revival special service was held for the children, and many little ones ;ave their hearts to God. and made open profession of their faitn. Ties For Panama. There are probably few people of his utate who know that Louisiana will furnish a large number of cross ies which will be used in the construc ;ion of the Panama railroad, that will >e built by the United States Govern nent, says the Baton Rouge Times. For the past several weeks, a large 'orce of workmen have been engaged nder the supervision of W. A. Bowers ( n getting out these ties in the pine I orest near Clinton, in East Feliciana o garish. These ties are being stacked j Lt convenient places along the line )f the Y. & M.

There can be nothing in Leuhm's association with Doc. that could be responsible for his undertaking such a hazardous venture; or is it, maybe, that the Abbeville girls, the loveliest and prettiest and sweetest in the land, have inspired the erstwhile base ball enthusiast with dealing in matri monial quotations instead of baseball "strikes?"
