Signed: CLYDE L. WAKER, C. C. PRATT, E. O. CLAY, Committee. The closing services were held last Tiitfht, when Dr. Powell gave an in spiring talk on "Life Service." In teresting stereopticon views were frc ly used by the speaker to illustrp.ie und illuminate his theme, the views j placing before the eyes of those pres- cut evidence of the great work being j carried on today in the foreign mission fields by Christian missionaries. j There was a -great deal to think over in. what he had to say about the needs of the Christian church for this work, and this was true in respect to Mex ico, our sister nation to the south. In Mexico, Dr. Powell said, the ac tivities of our army have necessitated the expenditure of over $200,000;000, vhile the Christian church has been able to secure only $2,000,000 fnr :ts work there. Four out of ftve of th? population of Mexico cannot rea1, and one-fifth of them "have never heard the gospel of Jesus Christ. In South America, where there are fi.1, 000,000 people, there are only or fourth the number of preachers at present -working in the sfate of Ohig. In the Uuniversity of Uueno3 Aires, whore five thousand students re n rolled," only four could be found who would express a belief in God. Dr. Powell's experierlce in the for ritrn field has been in India, and- he emphasized strongly; the very great work that remain to he done tkore, where one missionary mut care often for the spiritual nerds of a quartfT of a million people. "The amount, of money wanted to further the foreign mission work for the next five years is $40,000,000, and there .is an even more "pressing need for workers who will go out and make the expenditure of that money pos sible. .
