During the dry and hotter season the average seemed to be about two sick calls a day. Marriages between lepers seem to average one a week, baptisms five a week. Wo also have a non-leper section of about a thousand souls to take care of, families of doc- tors, nurses, officials, employees, etc. There's a Protestant minister here, has done quite a bit of proselytizing, I understand, though old age has ap- parently slowed him up now. Backed by funds galore he can afford to pay ADVENT SERMONS BEGUN BY RECTOR AT ST. PATRICK'S
