Egypt.

By J. J. Nethery

We are having plenty to do in this field, one of the oldest and the most degraded and most needy in the world. But God's Gospel must go here and gather from this decadent people the souls longing for the Bread of Life. So we are doing all we can, sowing the seed and awaiting the resulting harvest which the Master assures us will come.

We have a vast population of many languages. Ten different tongues are spoken in Cairo and Alexandria. Egypt, which once supplied the world's famine need, now needs help in her direr famine—the need of the Bread of Life. We need help, especially more workers.

I am studying Arabic as I have time. We need not say that it is difficult; however some progress is being made. Remember Egypt in your prayers. J. J. NETHERY.
