Student Volunteers in Foreign Fields

The Student Volunteer Movement seems to have a deepening hold upon the student body of the country. The Intercollegian gives the names of 379 volunteers for work in the foreign field, 326 of whom had sailed during 1908. These volunteers are connected with forty-seven missionary agencies, and are to be found working in Africa, China, India, Burma, Japan, Korea, South America, Turkey, Alaska, Philippines, West Indies, Mexico, and Arabia. The total number who have sailed since the movement began is 3,861. These missionaries are connected with the Volunteer Movement, but it must not be supposed for a moment that they are the only volunteers. Many others are just as truly volunteers, although not connected with this body.—Missionary Review.
