Nyassaland Mission

By S. M. Konigmacher

CHOLO.—To-day we sent out eight new teachers, and made arrangements with the head teacher for a transfer of others, so as to open up six more schools. One of my teachers found twenty new sites for out-schools. These people are waiting. We will occupy these places as soon as we can find teachers, and the means to support them.

I have another teacher out in another direction, who is expected in any day now. He will probably bring other calls for schools.

The school at the station is doing good work. We are fairly well filled as regards numbers, and hope that some of these boys will be willing to carry the gospel to their people.

Truly this is the time to work Africa. It is very hard to find men who are willing to go to teach the gospel. In other words, it is most difficult to instil into the hearts of these natives a true missionary spirit. But we have faith to believe that God has some jewels here.

The industrial side of the work is practically a failure this year, on account of heavy rains. The creamery is doing well. Last week we sent in thirty-six pounds of butter.

The health of all the workers is very good. S. M. KONIGMACHER.
