BORING INTO AFRICA
Mr. Dan Crawford has recently returned
from a twenty-three year's
stay in Central Afrca as a missionary
and gave at Northfield Christian
Workers' Conference a magnificent
address on his "heart's darling" as
he terms Central Africa. I want to
give you a few nyggets from his
mine of facts as he sweeps the cobwebs
from our minds.
1st. About the size of Africa.
"Africa is far, far bigger than yov
think, Give me the whole of Indit
and in it goes. Now the whole ol
China and in it j^oes too. Then ii
goes Australia with them ' and stil
my Africa asks for more. So w

even then I have what I believe th
Vanderbilts call marginal million!
Yet you hear people speaking as i
when you were in Central Africi
you could live the life of a sort c
week-ender and just run out to s?
your friend Jones or the Robinson
Cobweb number one.
The second thing is that Afri<
never had a road to its name. Whi
a tremendous surprise. We cant' ha'
a horse there. The tsetse fly wip
off everything of that kind. Fro
the Atlantic to the Indian Ocean i
that Africa has in the way of roa
are trails twelve inches wide ai
about twelve inches deep. You cs
not get both feet in at once; y
can't see the track, it has been bl<
ted out by the grass and you ha
to feel your way. You shoot f<
ward your left foot and drag 1
right one after it, and in this vs
zig-zag right across Africa to 1
tune of fifteen miles a day. Cobv
number three.

you were talking about Africa to

you mean. He names everything

I was reading to a native: "T

righ for nine months of the year, and .
s ultimately 13 ft. high. One of the u
larrows to African life, to my mind,
>s that you see nothing but a little t<
blue ribbon of sky overhead, and you
must find your way along in the tall _
yellow grass. It is just the color of 1
our friend I*eo, Felis, and we are apt
to actually sit down on a lion any j
time.
"I have told you about our boring .
in, and about the fifteen miles per *
day that we travel. By then we are 1
Suite tired out and we dump down,
lut our camp must be made. After j
that you notice the hungry, glassy 4
'? of vour men, and
suirc in uiv v/vw ? ?
with that you have got to deal, forget
your blisters and aching limbs, 1
take your everlasting gun and go J
get some meat. You don't dare miss
any shots, for, in Africa, if your
game gets away ten yards, it's gone.
And the lion may get the first look
in and the lion relishes beefsteak
just as much as the missionary does.
If you go back without meat, you
get together your little prayer circle
and pray, "O, Lord, if it be thy
will, put something into the traps."
and set your traps for red-legged
partridges. Boring in, we have to
make our house and kill our own
beef.
Now I come to spirtual results.
A most astonishing thing, is that j
these converted Africans have a kind
of technical phrase for the death of
, Christ. It is a word from the Bantee
t language. When they speak of the
f death of Christ, they say "the victory
of Golgotha."
1 "I had just finished my fifteen
e miles. Must have been very jaded,
for I dumped down on a log of wood,
e lying in the grass. I did not see a
native at my elbow, for, as I've told
f you?you never see anything in Af!
rica, everything is so much the sam<
tf color. The native growled at me
"You ai angry, sir." "Oh," I sai<
g dissolving in smiles, "Tell me al
about it, you seem to know, sir." (Ii
" f\T\
.a Africa we are an very pUHVC W v..
at another.) "You are silent, sir," h
ye said, "and that means you are ar

m know God in angry, because God i

ds tragedy of those dying millions i
nd Central Africa. They think God

ou Stars rise and set, rise and set, i
