We held our meeting last week
on a hike to the woods long before
the appointed hour. Every mem
ber of our Auxiliary and some of
our mothers and friends had met
on the bill-'side of “Brown Beauty
Branch” and were anxiously wait
ing to begin services.
Alter seating all the members
in a circle on a carpet of brown
straw, our president, M iss Eliza
beth Daniel, called the meeting to
order, by announcing the hymn,
More About Jesus,” which was
led by Mrs. Bobert Brown. Miss
Elizabeth Brown lead intei-estiug
ly, a Scripture lesson from Ads
16th; Paul’s jouruey to Macedon-
ia. Our president offered au earn
est prayer for our workers and
work, and. for the childern who
have not bad theprivilege of learn
ing about Jesus. Our Sec.etary,
Miss Lillian Brown, read the
minutes of last meeting and called
the roll, to which every member
responded with an offering, while
our Treasurer, Miss Katherine Mar
shall credited each on her ledger.
Then we all stood and sang “In
the Garden,” led by Miss Eliza
beth Brown. Our leader then told
about our work iu Africa, and
gave us a geographical lesson on
that country, emphasizing on the
African method of teaching.*
Miss Donnice White offerd a
touching prayer. Misses Eloise
Daniel and Martha Brown led in
song, “He Whispered His Love
To Me.” Then several boys render
ed appropiate reciation, and the
meeting was closed with the bene
diction.
After playing several African
games, all of our members joined
Miss Kathorinb Wilson, (our mis
sionary) on a trip to Africa. When
we arrived at the mouth ot the
“Mighty Congo River,” we know
that we were stilla long way from
our misson station, and each day
we went further and further into
the dark continent. Every day we
saw great elephants running wi’.d
on the banks of the river, liugs,
ugly Hippopotamus would rise up
unexpectedly out of the water, and
Crocodiles without number were
basking in the sun.
Atonestatioh a crocodile was
killed and in him was found a
womans arm and enough brass and
iron anklets and bracelets to have
eaten twenty-seven people.
Every day many dangers lurked
about us, mosquitoes swarmed a-
bout our boat. The Tsetse fly too
was there taking with him the
dreaded “.Sleeping Sickness.’’ We
passed many villages empty and
deserted, because the fly had
brought death to every 'one. Our
hearts were made sad when we
thought of the helplessness of the
poor people, with no one to show
them a better way to live.
Now wo came to the last stretch
journey of two-hundred and fifty
miles, and we had to be carried in
hammocks, swung from long poles
borne on the shoulders of two men,
Miss Wilson did not seem to mind
it, but wo were almost sick at the
thought of such,
We could not travel only in the
cool part of the day and when we
would enter a village for rest, the
people would gather aroune us to
see .white people. The Chief of the
village would send us a present of
some chickens and a goat; but be
fore we ltft, he would always be on
hand to receive one from us, and
it had to hotter than his, or he
would be insulted.
We learned much about the
queer way in which the Africans
get news from one star ion to an
other. They beat the messages on
drums. Sj-the Missionaries had re
ceived woi d about us and came to
meet us-
T*n a short wnile we were ready
for our return home, and no joy
could be greater to us. When we
at last airived m our own native
1 md. we were met on the hillside
by our mothers and friends, who
bad spread for us a bounteous sup
per, consisting of fried chicken,
sandwiches, salads, pickle, and’
cakes of all kinds that appealed
to our hungry a, petites. After a
short prayer of thanks by Mr. J.-
J .Houser, we all began to realize
that l lessings and beauties tnd
comforts of a civilized country.
After supper we gathered great
bunches of Easter Hies,' honey
suckles, verbenas, violets and
heart leaves so dear to the heart
of a Southern child, Then just as
the sun had disappeared from
sight, we ended our hike with a
song service, led by Mr. Mike
Daniel Jr. and all went tli their
respective homes, tired bat de
lighted. x.
IN MEMORY OF MR. OH. STEMBRDGE.
There was an Angel band in
Heaven,
That father, husband thought not
quite complete;
So he took his own dear life
To fill a vacant seat..
The beautiful lights were shining
Along that beautiful shore
As his soul crossed that beauti
ful river
Never to return any more.
A precious one from us is gone,
A voice we loved is stilled,
A place is vacant iu our home
Which never can be filled.
A joyous, happy home now deso
late,
A circle broken sade and lone,
A vacant chair at the table
A father, husband, a loved one
gone.
Peaceful be your rest, father
husband dear,
It is sweet to call your name
In life we loved you dearly
And in death it will be the same.
A Friend, Z. R.
