Missionary Changes and New Language Fields

By Editor

THE Mission Board has a communication from Elder T. M. French, formerly of West Africa, reporting that he and Mrs. French are leaving for England, having accepted a call to evangelistic work in one of the conferences there. These workers have been taking a furlough in the Canary Islands, the health base for West Africa, and had expected to be compelled to return to America on account of Mrs. French's health. Brother French reports that he is glad to continue his service in the fields abroad.
"WITH the help that has been sent us from the homeland," Elder L. V. Finster writes from the Philippines, "we have been able to open missions in three new languages this year. Elder Roy Hay has gone to the Ilocano people, in northern Luzon; Elder E. M. Adams to the Iloilo-Visayan people, on the islands of Panay and Negros; and Dr. Carlos Fattebert and Brother Robert Stewart to the Cebu-Visayan people, on the island of Cebu." We assure our workers in the Philippines that we rejoice with them as the message enters these new language areas.
