Chicago, Oct. 16.—Police and the
Chicago Medical Society, aiding in
the investigation, still wore baffled
today by the mystery surrounding
the city’s gland robberies.
At least two men were known to
have been subjected to operations in
which vital glands were removed
from their bodies. Both said they
were? kidnaped, drugged, mutilated,
and left in the street.
In some respects the two cases dif
fer widel y. Joseph Wozniak, 34, one
of the victims, lost one gland thru
an operation which medical men said
was the work of an expert surgeon.
Amateur
Harry Johnson, an ebployee of the
city electrical department, who lost
two glands, w’as mutilated by an am
ateur, according tosurgeons.
Several theories were advanced by
the police, who said that Johnson,
at least, may have been the victim
of revenge.

r—
Upon arriving: in Korea, the latter
part of October, 1921, I was force
fully struck with the beauties of
this land. My travels through Ja
pan during harvest seasons, had pre
pared me for beautiful sights, but
had not prepared me for the wonder
ful beauty of Korea, for it is suffi-
ient to arrest the attention of any
eyes. These golden rice fields, won
derful hills and broad valleys, and
Korean villages with mud houses
aq straw roofs calls for one’s most
careful attention, even while pass
ing through the county on board one
of these express trains, that runs
from Fusen all the way through Ko
rea into Manchuria.
I arrived a tChunju the morning
of October 21st, in t*nie for break
fast in the Eversole home. Break
fast in a real missionary home, in
which there are four lovely children,
was refreshing to my soul, after
weeks of travel. It was a real break
fast, and I felt much strengthened
for the day’s duties.
Soon after breakfast other mem
bers of the Station came over to see
and meet the new missionary. I was
also anxious to see and meet those
with whom I am to work. After
scrutinizing these old timers with the
utmost care for a few minutes, the
feelings of old and new sbon vanish
ed because of that peculiar human
ties that binds people’s hearts, and
I felt that we were real fellow-work
ers in a great cause, among a people
I had not seen except carrying heavy
loads an working the fields as 1 pass
ed through the country.
After this short visit from the oth
er members of he station, Mr. Ever
sole asked about my baggie. I
gave him the checks, and he told m 1 ’
that his man would bring up the*
baggage in a few minutes. Of course
I thought he would bring the load
in a wagon, but inn few minutes this
man came up the hill with my trunk,
which weighed over two hundred
pounds, on his back. I was told that
this was a light load for only one
man to carry only a mile. I said to
myself, no wonder these Korean
| Christians have such strong faith, if
they can carry such heavy loads on
their barks they must be able to en
dure much for the Master.
1 was then introduced to this man,
(Mr. Kim), as the new minister, the
(Moksa), who was to ivle in Chi-
ju. He told me that he was glad I
had come such a long way to preach
to his people. Just then the native
pastor of the local church came uP
on business. Mr. Eversole intro
duced us, and he said “He thanked
God and took courage because I had
come to Korea to preach to his peo
ple.”
Then a Deacon came up, who had
just gotten out of prison (a number
of Christians have been imprisoned
out here because of national affairs)
He made n similar statement about
my coming to Korea, attended to his
business, and passed on. Thcs
pressions made me thankful that it
was so I could come to bring the mes
sage of God’s love to these people.
That afternoon I went with Mr.
Eversole down town. Passing by the
West Gate Church, we stopped to
look at some work that was being
done on the new Sunday School build
ing. The church, a nice brick build
ing with a Korean tile roof, I was
j told would seat a thousand people,
j and that they had from seven to eigh
! hundred present every Sunday. In
| the yard we met one of the Elders
j and a Deacon, who were superintend
ing the construction of the Sunday
School rooms. They gave me en
couraging words about having come
! to Korea; we exchanged greetings
! and passed again into the muddy
streets, looking at the native stores
1 that looked more like booths at one
| of our state fairs than stores.
1 1 was interested in the various ar-
; tides found on sale in these stores,
j especially the wearing apparel, traw
) shoes, men’s hats, gentlemen’s pur-
j ses, efc. I asked the price of as
; many as Mr. Eversole had time for,
! as 1 would have purchased the whole
i town and sent it home fur the ehild-
; ren to play with, but my financial
condition constrained me.
We returned home and I had some
I time for meditation. First, 1 a s ked
‘ myself why I came to Korea where
! they had the Gospel, real churches,
| native pastors, elders and deacons,
! and a capable force of niissionaires.
! I began to feel that 1 might have
i been misguided, because all I had
j seen looked like it might be an im-
: provement on our Christian work in
j America. The truth was that I had
so much yet to see that I did not in
♦he slightest measure realize the
task that was before me.
So lets see how we feel some
| months later. Now that 1 have seen
• * something of the country and have
: ! an inside view of the mission work,
11 seeing something of the life of the
all the energy of every member of
our station, and not in the slightest
do justie to all phases of the work
required among them ....
Then, the surrounting territory for
which we are responsible reaches
from 25 to 50 miles with village af
ter village, many of which Christi
anity has never enteret. It has been
my pleasure to visit one of the vil
lages with Mr. W. D. Winn, and to
preach to the heathen for several
tays, also to visit and preach in all
the surrounding villages. The effort
was met with sucress, and they hope
to organize a chruch in this village
next year. It is a wonderful thing
to see those who have decided to be
lieve try to observe the Sabbath for
the first time. Of iourse they fall
away many times, but the majority
of them become strong Christians.
The sad fact about this work is
that the missionary can only devote
about one month each year to work
among heathen villages, where there
are thousands anxiously awaiting to
hear the gospel, and be led into
Christian activity. Of course, one
asks why more work is not done in
that direction, but you can easily see
when you think of thirty-five, and
oft times more, small groups of Chris
tians organized into churches that
are so young, ignorant and weak, the
missionary has to spend most of his
time in instruction and correction.
This, with the station duties, the af
fairs of home life and most of the
time, the work of a fellow-mission
ary, who is either on the sick-list or
on furlough, may in some measure
explain why there are so many break
downs on our field, and why more
villages are not reached.*
Surely this moans that God wanted
me here to help carry on this great
work. I look out my window every
morning into a small village of the
city of Chunju with over three thou
sand people who are out of Christ.
They do not attend the church, nor
is there being done anything at pres
ent to give them the gospel. Thi
