Missionary movment. Kov. .lames
W. Morris, speaking on Ihe work In
South America, dwelt upon tfio ne
glect of that vast field from the
Rtandnolnt of missionary endeavor.
He uild In part :
"s compared with Kurope, Asia,
Africa and even North AnierHi,
South America Is-R vast unoccunlcd
land. If we except Australia. It Is
the one continent of Ibis enrtb so
spnrsely settled that It may be called
unoccupied llrnzll, for Instance, the
vnst republic embrncing nearly one
half of the continent, with an area
"qunl to Hint of our own United
States, has only some seventeen mil
lion In'hnbltants n population which
constitutes only a mengre fringe
nlont the conRt line of the country.
. "Knormous districts unexplored
tracts of rich mineral lands, of tin
touched forests, of wide nrnlrles
still nwnll the dwelling and the de
vloulng hand of mini. So full Is II
of all sources of wealth, so abund
ant In all Hint sunnorts human life,
Ihal II Is calculated Hint llrnzll alone
can with ease aivd comfort nccommo
dnle one thousand nil'lllops of people.
Thus the distance between seventeen
millions nnd one thousand million
niav well give some Idea of the vnst
unoccupied spaces, the Immense r"
irlons rich In the products proper for
the support of man, lying unappro
nrtMied In this mighty Southern con
llnent. ''Mut further, from th' standpoint
