A Man’s Job || For MEN Ima Partnership That Pays A Man’s Job For MEN in a Partnership That Pays THE BOARD OF FOREIGN MISSIONS OF THE PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH IN THE U. S. A. Together we can do the job: Separately it is impossible. We go. You send. God will give the increase. It is up to you. What do you say ? Send your answer to Presbyterian Board of Foreign Missions 156 FIFTH AVENUE, NEW YORK This sums up a fair proposition to put before our busi- ness men and Churches. Any man or Church may thus have a representative on the foreign field. Salaries vary ac- cording to the expense of living in the country to which the Missionary goes. Outfit, travel, house rent, fuel, etc., make necessary $1,000 for each man. Their wives are supported by the Women’s Boards. Write to Mrs. HALSEY WOOD, 156 Fifth Ave., N. Y. and learn particulars. One man, a group of men, a Men’s Bible Class, a Men’s Club, or a Church may enter into this partnership. A Man’s Job For Men Rev. Edward C. Austin S going to Colombia.

Ray Berger RADUATED at McCormick Theological Seminary in 1914 expecting to go to Africa: The great war made this im- possible as our Africa Mission was closed to new recruits. Mr. Berger was asked to go to the Philippines and, with the true Missionary spirit, although his heart was set on Africa, he gladly acquiesced in the desire of the Board. Rev. H. Ray BERGER Rev. Harold C. Anderson AS already been at work for some little time in Brazil and with good success. He is a graduate of lowa State Univer- sity and Princeton Seminary. He took the Old Testament fellow- ship at Princeton and had a year of graduate work in Berlin. “A man of winning personality and deep spirituality: a strong per- sistent young man and a grow- ing one.” Here is an opportun- ity to form a partnership which REV. HAROLD C. ANDERSON will yield large returns. The great Neglected Continent is rich in possibilities. Rey. Robert C. Byerly H?*s also had experience on the foreign field, having been for three years a teacher in the Syrian Protestant College Rev. ROBERT C. BYERLY at Beirut. He did splendid work while there and was asked to re- return by friends in Syria. He wished to go, but the needs of Persia at the time of his appoint- ment were very great and he was willing to put his life there. Strangely enough, the war has detained him en route for Persia and he is now in Syria. His desire is to work among Moham- medans. Hestudied at Franklin and Marshall College and Princ- ton Seminary. Dr. NATHANIEL BERCOVITZ Dr. Nathaniel Bercovitz Ne a graduate of Occidental College and of the University of California Medical College. He has had experience in Y.M. C. A. evangelistic work and in Rescue Mission Service. For eight years he has been looking forward to the great possibilities of Medical Missions, having for his prime motive “the desire to win souls for Christ’”—“ the ap- paling need coupled with the great opportunity has always been the strongest factor in my purpose.” Dr. Bercovitz goes to the Hainan Mission where a devoted missionary physician is very greatly needed at this time. He has just finished his interneship at the Los Angeles County Hospital. Mr. James Vinton Shannon [Ss a graduate of Indiana Univer- sity and has taught in the In- diana Schools — three years as Principal of High School. year he held a responsible posi- tion in the Horace Mann High School for boys in New York City. “One of the best men that we have ever had in the school.” He will be just the right man to help in the educational work of Hainan where we have schools of all grades. Last Mr. JAMES VINTON SHANNON Rey. Dwight M. Donaldson ie had practical experience as Secretary of the Student Y.M.C. A., assistant pastor, and City Mission worker. He has already served on the Foreign Field, having spent three years as instructor at Forman Christian College, Lahore, India. His heart turns to far away Afghan- istan and he asked for appoint- ment to our East Persia Mission. With others he has already sailed for that sadly stricken country, Rev. DwicHt M. DONALDSON realizing that just now Persia is in need of every Christian man or woman who has the heart and the courage to help her. Rev. Elmer E. Freed UATEMALA is the needy field toward which Mr. Freed’s eyes have turned for a number of years, and now, Rev. ELMER E.

FERGER Rey. Henri R. Ferger H 45 already “tried himself out as a “ short-term” man at the Gordon Mission College, Rawal Pindi, India. We are thus sending a man who has had ex- perience.

M.C. A. Camps, and knows how to handle boys. Mr. Ferger has ability and enthusiasm and loves India, for which he has given up business opportunity here at home. He will enter heartily into the life of the young men and boys and in one of our educational institutions— (per- haps a High School in the Punjab)—will bring a well equip- ped, devoted Christian personal- ity into very close touch with those needy lives of India. Rey. Edgar C. Short N Oberlin College man with Seminary courses at Auburn and Oberlin. He has had some business experience and is an adept in stenography and type- writing. He has done summer preaching on the home mission field. “He combines intellect- ual strength with religious con- viction and spiritual earnestness Rev. EDGAR C. SHORT and Christian piety and common good sense.” We are sending him to our Central Brazil Mission. This is his preference since his “mis- sionary purpose had its begin- nings in interests in South Amer- ” 1Ca. Rev. Graham Fuller We a two year agricultural course, four years civil en- gineering, together with experi- ence in architects’ and civil en- gineers’ offices, and finally the complete theological course at McCormick, here is certainly an “all around man.” Missionary service calls for every bit of equipment and experience that a man can acquire, many missionaries being obliged to act as architects and builders in wood and stone as well as in character and life. REV. GRAHAM FULLER Mr. Fuller is eminently fitted for both. In the architects’ offices where he worked, it often happened that he “ could not see the houses he was trying to draw, but a map of the Foreign Field.” He was ready to go to “China, or Africa, or any place the Board may indicate.” This is the spirit of the true missionary. We are sending him to far away North Siam —-one of the choice men of this year’s recruits. Rey. Clifford A. Douglass NOTHER man who has worked his way through and knows what life means. He is a graduate of Occidental College and San Francisco Seminary. He has been a winner of souls. Has preached in Rescue Mission in San Francisco with telling effect. He has done splendid work with boys. REV. CLIFFORD A. DOUGLASS “You can depend upon him to do heroic work in practical Evan- gelism. He will preach a Gos- pel that is not a philosophy but a force. He will never be afraid of anything, and if there are hard- ships he will take them asa mat- ter of course.” Mr. Douglass goes to Colombia where missionaries are few and possibilities great. Who will enter into partnership with him in his heroic work for The Neglected Continent ? Mr. Olin W. MeMillen OES to South China to assist in educational work. He has already had two years of experience as teacher in the Arlington Training School for Boys, Arlington, Texas. He is a graduate of the University of Missouri and of the Missouri State Military School and _ will be a good drill master. In Sun- day School and Boys’ Club work he has shown himself efficient. While preferring a Spanish- speaking country because of knowledge of the language, Mr. McMillen was willing to go where the Board should direct. He is a fine personality, attrac- tive, cheerful, and energetic. He has been a successful teacher and possesses that most desir- able quality in a missionary of ability to work well with others. Mr. OLIN W. McMILLEN Dr. Wm. Henry Adolph and Mr. Harold W. Harkness ARE BOTH assigned to the Shantung Mission and expect to give their lives in educational work at Shantung Chris- tian University, one of the finest institutions of its kind in China. Four or five hundred students are awaiting them. In five years there will be a thousand. These young men are to train the future leaders of China. Dr Adolph has just completed his graduate work at the University of Pennsylvania, taking a Ph. D. with Chemistry as his major subject. He is a man of fine spirit and most at- tractive character. Having already had three years intimate contact with Chinese students in this country, he is especially prepared to enter into the student life at Shantung University, and to exert a strong Christian influence among its students. Mr. Harkness is a minister's son and comes to us from Canada, having been released to us through the courtesy of the Canadian Presbyterian Board. He is a graduate of Queens University, Ontario, and has seen some home Mission service. He has specialized in Engineering. Shantung University will have use for every talent he possesses as it sends its hundreds of Christian students forth into the life of the New China. Dr. WM. HENRY ADOLPH = Mr, HArRoLD W. HARKNESS ITH which of these will you join in part- nership? Your contribution is to be an extra, a clean plus over and above what you or your church or organization are now giving to the Foreign Board. What you are now giving is needed to carry on work already begun. These salaries start a new series of obligations on the part of the Board and call for absolutely new money. Here are fifteen men. There are ten more. We ask for twenty-five salaries in annual pledges of $1,000 each. 37 tee iN, +h 7 So VWRARBI x ; i. City Orr ery ey NP fh
