The following clipping- from the ‘'Christian Voice” will boos inter erst to those who wiil observe “Week of Prayer” at the First Methodist church, Monday, Nov. 10, as it tells of the work that is being done, in the West Virginia Coal fields, where part of the gifts re ceived during the Week of Prayer will bo sent. The region that is known as the West Virginia Coal Fields is in Re ality very .small. The most of tho work is being done in only one county—McDowell. This county .lies in the extreme southwestern par of the state and borders on Virginia and Kentucky. The moun tains are high and rugged with deep cut, narrow valleys. Through one of these valleys runs the Norfolk tpid Western Railroad, the “main line” of that part of the State. Five of our eight missionaries are located on these branch lihes, the others are near towns on the maih line. Most of the roads arc macad amized and are in good condition. Many camps are shunted along these roads as well as along the railroad. The people of these camps may be divided into three classes generally; the natives or mountaineers, the transients, and the foreigners. Many lof the mountaineers who are now | working in the mines have homes | somewhere up in the mountains and spend only the day in the camps. Jog cabins. are«some- I times several miles from the camp. ! There are very few' Schools or churches near these homes, and in fhdny instances the children are getting no education ai d seldom go to a religious service. Some of these people, however,, have left their homes, moved d.own into the camps, and make up an important part of the population. In one re spect the work among these moun tain people is the most important, because it is more permanent. The transients, as they are call ed, are Americans too, but they are not natives. Generally they are natives of border States who have come to the camps to make quick money. As a rule, they spend their entire life right in the coal fields, but their intention is always to go back home. On account, of their instability, it is hard to work with this class. By the time the worker Mas become well acquainted with them and has found her point of contact or started some construc tive work, they move on, and much that had been accomplished is seem- ” The KIMBALL HOUSE Atlanta The Home of Georgia people. 400 Rooms of Solid comfort.

The children are often rude and hard to cont J and arel i always far ’behind*, in -•ctool. The boys go to the mines, urd the girlsj get married at the ag« of fouitcen or fifteen and start hem -s of their own. They tire of -ho i! because they are too old for their grades, rjni they soon tire ci married life became they are 100 voung for the responsibilities that face them. The' majority of the broken homes and! penniless widows and orphans that! come under the missionaries’ care can be traced back to these pre mature marriages. Hoy. to do per manent, successful . v.‘‘.rl. among these Xvandering people is one of the problems. The last and probabiv the small est class consists of the foreign, is —ltalians, Hungarians, hlavs, and the Negroes. Miss Mary Godwin will arrive Friday from Wesleyan College- to spend the Armistice holidays with her mother, Mrs. R B. Godwin, at her home on Church street. Mrs. John M.
