Mission Notes

By W. H. Wakeham

A PHYSICIAN from any good medical school has no difficulty in getting practise in Egypt. American, English, or German physicians can go there and qualify immediately, by simply presenting their diplomas or papers before the Medical Association Board, and obtain a license. Cairo would be a good place in which to open treatment rooms. There are many Europeans in that city who would gladly welcome a physician from America or Europe.

ONE of the first places which the apostle Paul visited on his first missionary tour was Cyprus. We now have two brethren on this island, who within the past two years have begun the observance of the Sabbath. One of these came to Alexandria, and I met him and had a very interesting conversation with him, holding several Bible readings, through an interpreter. Though he is an Armenian, yet he does not know that language, but speaks the Turkish. He was much interested in the different points of our faith, and expressed himself as in harmony with them. After passing through a great deal of persecution, he had finally begun to think of the truths he had heard, and kept the Sabbath twelve years after first hearing the message from Brother Baharian. He runs a little merchandise wagon throughout the country, and preaches the truth as he goes.—W. H. Wakeham.
