I have linen wondering .just how

The lar^i i part of the amount, I

carlici than usual
It is found that repairing can be
doin' and the building be used
again, Inti it can serve temporarily
only. The building is not worth
the inline,\ it xxonlil lake to put. it
in lirst class shape. Indeed, it has
never been adequate to the needs
that is new, well planned, well
built and adapted to the needs of
our work. If Nexvuan xxill give
us one-fourth of that amount, I be
lieve we can get the oilier three-
lourtlis easily raised in North and
South Georgia. Five hundred
dollars is less than a single mis
sionary ’s support for one y ear. and
Nashville.
In the meantime I will write to
lb . Lamlmth of my request and
expectation of a gift for the pur
pose from Nexxnan, and ask. that
if it is forthcoming, xve may make
it the nucleus of a specific ottering
asked from Georgia—North and
South Georgia ('(inferences—for
this special building.
Personally, I can think of no
greater .joy and inspiration in my
work than to have our kindergar
ten building made possible by a
specific, generous gift from Xcxx •
nun. I xx ill write to Mr. Post and
ask his co-operation with y ou, and
also mention the request to I fro.
Theo. and sister. Other than that
I xxill not write of it, because I
would leave il entirely to your
judgment, and desire. Von will
know whether it is rigli 1 and best
to present this request that comes
from the depths of my heart to the
people I lox'c the best. I wait
eagerly and prayerfully to hear
from you.
The assurances that come to me
from time to time that you friends
at home pray for me, together with
the other xx in kers and tin* work
here in Japan, comforts and
strengthens me. Please keep me
conlimiully in your love and pray
ers. The church at home* is ever
in my heart and often in my
thoughts. Please give my love to
friends, especially the dear ones of
your nxx n home circle.
Yours sincerely.
