Dr. Robert Miner, the ambassador, proved to be a gracious middle-aged man with graying temples and a genial smile. He had been an ambassador in several South American countries and was familiar with the work of Advent- ists. He told Dr. DeShay that in one of those countries he discovered that the Adventists had the finest hospital in the country. Would he help get this little girl to the United States? Certainly. He would contact the State Department and get help. But he wanted to know what as- surance could be given that the opera- tion would be successful and that the girl would not die. Of course, no doctor could give a complete guarantee that surgery as deli- cate as this would be successful. But Dr. DeShay prayed silently, asking God for a sign that all. would be well.

Shortly afterward, Siaka Stevens, Prime Minister of Sierra Leone, visited the leprosarium, saw the lepers at work, and was favorably impressed with the trades and the farm programs being developed. It seemed revolutionary to him that lepers, who had always been looked upon as practically invalids, could perform tasks requiring manual or technical skills. Help From Many Sources The leprosarium was also mentioned favorably to a German businessman, Mr. Villmer Breckwoldt, who visited Sierra Leone in connection with his overseas interests.

BRAZIL: Adventist Youth Army to Help Combat Drugs The Globo, one of Rio de Janeiro's largest newspapers, recently published an article describing the efforts of Sev- enth-day Adventist youth to help the Brazilian Government fight narcotics. The article, entitled "80,000 Advent- ist Youth Will Combat Vice," described how a commission of Adventist leaders visited Jarbas Passarinho, the Minister of Education, and placed at his disposal 80,000 SDA youth to help in the Government's campaign against nar- cotics. The youth who, the article said, "do not smoke, nor drink, nor take drugs," 4:11E.: 1•DEilp,L4R) would contact addicts in an effort to persuade them to cooperate in over- coming the habit. The Adventist young people would also help to educate youth who have not used habit-forming toxicants, the article said. "The methods usually em- ployed by the Adventists [in this work] are . . . lectures, conferences, fairs, and exhibitions of films in schools, universi- ties, and military bases." "Adventists are of the opinion that the only power to keep the individual away, especially the youth, from vice is religion," the article stated. "This is why the church maintains 13 schools of rehabilitation for alcoholics in sao Paulo." M. S.

He became so interested in the lessons that he was awarded a Tagalog Bible at the closing program. His regular attend- ance at Sabbath school led to baptism a few months later. Democri to's father Dionisio, a bar- ber, took the Bible to his shop. When he had no customers he would read a chapter. One day Gilbert Abcede, leader of the Lucban church, came to get his hair cut. He noticed Dionisio's Bible on the shelf and asked him whether he would like to study the Bible with the aid of lesson helps. Dionisio said he would, so Gilbert en- rolled him in the correspondence course.

I cannot afford to miss a single meeting because the preacher answers questions on the Bible that I have had for years, and his answers are so clear.
