The following from a personal let ter from Fred Smelser at Karulzawa, Japan, is a very Interesting account of their recent experience in a flood. Mrs. Smelser was formerly Miss Mary Long and lived north of Abilene for twenty years. "I. wrote you Just before coming to this mountain retreat. Mrs. Smel ser and the children came up some days before. I hare been here a lit tle more than a week, but during that short time we have had quite an ex perience, but we praise God all our lives have been spared. Because of the floods of the past week railroad communications to Tokyo and Yoko hama have been cut off. We have received some telegrams from the outside which tell of great devasta tions from floods throughout Japan. We heard this morning that 240 vil lages had been entirely swept away and great loss of life. Of course we cannot know now how much destruc tion has been wrought. Here In Kai- ulzawa many houses bave been flood ed and a few wrecked (that is for eign bouses.) The Japanese houses have fared no better. Wednesday night about 10:30 we were warned to leave the house as the water was bursting through the dam above ami would come down Main street on which we lived. So we packed togetb er a few necessary things we could carry In our bands and went to hlgu- er ground andj stopped Jwlth Mr. Ersklde, a missionary, till morning. The next morning we found our house flooded, but by wading through the water and by the belp of some Japa nese we were enabled to get our things out, but many things w.re muddy and wet The bona, was so wrecked Inside that wa could not think of going back Into It It seemed the band of the Lord was upon us for good as ws were enabled to rent an other bouse the same day and got our things Into It Bo onr greateat loss was the rent for the season of the first bouse. Ws bat. bad much bard rain since which caused muck anxiety throughout Karultawn bat It cleared off last night and we bar. sunshine today. Foreigners snd Japanese alike hare bad to work day and nlgbt to sr. II f. and property by damming and trying to keep the great rush of water In certain channels. There has been moch snxlety concerning faod scpplle. but ws ars Informed by the authorities that supplies will be sent in. All food stuffs are very dear' at present and will likely be much higher. Eggs are now 75 yen per dozen. It fine weather icontln ues in a few weeks trains will surely be able to run again." Took Fourth Prize.
