The Methodist women are also interested in six of the seven Union colleges for which funds are now being raised. Among some of the South Dakota missionaries in whom" the City Temple is particularly interested is Mrs. S. E. of Klmpesl, Belgian Congo Mission, Africa.

As Miss Sara Jensen of Vlborg she was the first woman from this state to put herself at the disposal of our National Woman's Board of Foreign Missions. South Dakota women rejoiced that their prayers for a worker from this state had been answered but before she could be stationed by the Woman's Board she was married to Rev. S. E. Moon and became a worker under the General Board.

Their work is followed with interest and the infrequent visits to her home state are occasions of renewed fellowship. Rev. Moon writes interestingly in January "Missions" of the need of institutional churches in that part of the Congo field. Miss Mary Cressey went from Sioux Falls to Ningpo, China, in the fall of ISO. She had been a teacher of Latin and German in Sioux Falls high school.

Her work, for a time, after sufficient command of the language was acquired, was evangelistic and the establishing of day schools around Ningpo. Since the aeath of a fellow she" -has had charge of the Bible Training School and the day schools; seven in number. Thero are about fifty women in the training school, A partial grant for a new building wad made this year. Miss Cressey was tiome on furlough In 1914-1915 spending several months In Dr. W.

W. White's Bible Training school in New York. A delayed homecoming is due in 1922. Since her last sailing, both parents have died but many friends and relatives here will try to make up In welcome the grief and loneliness that the years have brought. Madison furnishes two workers who claim our interest, first.

Miss Hattie Petheram from the First Baptist church, who went to Burma in 1910 and has returned fur. one furlough, visiting Sioux Falls several times. She has largo successful school at Ny-aunglebin and for a time was In sole charge of the great central work at Shwegyin of which field her school is a part. From the German Baptist church at Madison comes Miss- Amelia Bartel, who is a worker among the Hungarians in Cleveland, Ohio. In Chicago, at 2969 Vernon avenue, the Woman's Baptist Home Missionary society maintains a fine train ing school for missionaries and church workers ox all kinds.

Graduating from the training school In 1911, after a brief service In Detroit.

Miss Helen Tenhaven was sent to Sioux Falls as missionary on the Fast Side. Her membership, until recently, and a generous amount of I service have been given to the City Temple.

A large share of her time Is nov; given to work at Riverside. Last November, Jr.

Irene Smedley was enabled to realize a lifelong am bition. She Railed for India to work with Dr. Anna S. Kugler in the hos pital at Guntur. Madras Presidency.

She will spend at least a year there perhaps more. Shortly before leaving, she resigned the presidency of the Business and Professional Women's league. India, above all lands, needs women of her profession. There are thos In Sioux Falls who still remember Samuel Samuelson, a promising student of Sioux Falls college, who was on the field In Burma for many years but Is now doing Americanization work In New York City.

For many years he has been the-' directing center of the station -at Shwegyin, Lincoln Baptist church, Chicago, claiming him as their missionary pastor. The newest connecting with the Orient Is the adoption by the City Temple, through the of Rev. O.

F.Iton Harris and in consideration of the heroic and successful attempt of the church to pledge the full quota toward the New World Movement fund, of Rev. J. H. Scott and wife of Osaka, Japan, to be its missionaries. fir rf saiji Probably few people In Sioux Falls and eastern South Dakota realize the number of Falls young women In the eastern part of the state are doing Christian missionary work in the fields afar, that is, in China, India and Africa and other lands.

Little thought is given to the sacrifices made by these young people nave given the comforts of their home, endure being separated for long periods from their people to carry on the work of Christ over there. Missionaries returning from China state there is great need for missionary work in China and the numbers of Christian workers going-to -that' country each year Is increasing In number.
