JUST as we go to press comes the word from missionary G. F. Jones, en route to the Solomon Islands, South Pacific, saying that the Australian branch of our society, which sends him out, has given him a seven-ton missionary boat, with auxiliary power. It may be the first home he and his wife will have among wild islanders. “Where we are going,” he says, “there is neither town, house, nor even room for a stranger. The natives are hostile, and the climate equally so, to the European.”
