A Calendar for Missionary Work
By Editor
The Missionary Calendar.—We have received from Mr. A. W. Roffe, 274 Bathurst St., Toronto, Ontario, Canada, the "Missionary Calendar and Wall Roll" for 1913. It certainly is a beautiful and inspiring calendar to those who are longing to help the needy of earth. On the front page are two half-tone pictures, of women workers in India, many of whom were famine waifs in 1900, and three Kongo teachers holding forth the Word of Life, with the mottos, "The Christians now living must take Christ to the non-Christians now living, if they are ever to hear of Him;" and "Missions are the outgo of the church; the church is the outcome of missions." Each month is given on one large sheet, with a center illustration around which are grouped stirring missionary items, as, for instance, January 29, "India has 500,000 blind persons, 391,000 child widows, 6,000,000 child wives, and 27,000,000 orphans." For February 11 we have: "No individual can remain the same after the Gift of God has come into his life. No community but what is changed once the Lamb of God is received." For March 15: "Every ten-cent piece represents ten units of opportunity and responsibility. It will buy a cigar, or preach the gospel for a whole day through native lips." The price of the calendar is low—sent by mail for 35 cents; in dozen lots, post-paid, for $2.64. Address as above.
