Three Africans become Moslems for every one 
 who becomes a Christian. 
 
 Carrying Rel lgion with 
 Business 
 
 The Moslem traders who are now 
 going by the thousand into equatorial 
 Africa have two objects-—the increase of 
 business and the spread of Moham¬ 
 medanism; their slogan is “Africa for 
 Islam.” 
 
 Christian missionaries also are tryin 
 to win Africa for their religion by wor 
 both in equatorial Africa and in North 
 Africa among the Moslems themselves. 
 It seems that the Christians should have 
 the advantage, for during the last gener¬ 
 ation Christian nations have taken 
 possession of fifty-nine-sixtieths of the 
 continent, but unfortunately every Chris¬ 
 tian is not a missionary, while every 
 Moslem is. Therefore for every convert 
 to Christianity Mohammedanism is gain¬ 
 ing three.

 A ten-wife-power plow. 
 
 Learning the White Man s 
 Ways 
 
 The chief who wanted a plow like the 
 missionary’s because it could do the 
 work of ten wives was learning the best 
 of the white man’s industrial system. 
 
 Industrial schools are teaching the 
 natives to use plows and sewing mach¬ 
 ines and printing presses, but other 
 forces are showing them the worst of 
 the white man’s ways. Yearly half a 
 million men go into the Rand mining 
 district, the “University of Crime.” 
 Thousands return to the kraal to add 
 the diseases and vice of the white man 
 to the evils of paganism. 
 
 We shall have to strengthen our 
 Methodist schools if we are to counteract 
 this influence, because now for every 
 African who comes to our schools, 
 thirty go into the mines.

The medical missionary must take the place

 The Easiest Way to Reach 
 Africa 
 
 The easiest way to reach Africa, is by 
 quinine and antiseptics, for the country 
 has fifty-seven varieties of fever and a 
 million poisonous insects of which half 
 either bite or sting while the other half 
 do both. 
 
 The native witch doctor, who works 
 upon the principle of “kill or cure,” is 
 totally incapable of treating these ills 
 and is much more likely to kill than he 
 is to cure. 
 
 The native is quick to realize the 
 superiority of the white doctor in treat¬ 
 ing fevers and dressing wounds, and a 
 missionary with medical training has a 
 double chance of reaching the natives.
