I have written the National Church for information concerning the need for recruits, and have the following from Rev. A. B. Parsons, the Associate Secretary: “The opportunities which are before us on the Mission Field never were greater. Evangelistic workers are needed. These should be young women of unquestioned devotion, winning personality, and those with the very best of educational preparation. They should be sturdy in physique, free from family responsibility or financial obligations here or at home; and these women should be prepared to devote a substantial number of years to this work. It is also desirable that the candidate should have had at least one year’s experience in her chosen vocation.” May we hope that some young women in this Diocese may be inspired with the love and faith sufficient to be willing to go unto the uttermost parts of the earth, in answer to these calls, and that the Woman’s Auxiliary well see fit to finance the venture?
