for a week. We are reading a different translation
 every day, and one day I supply the translation from
 my Greek Testament. [Paul taught beginning Greek
 in Nazarene Theological Seminary while taking his
 work there.]
 One thing E- surely needs, and I'm sure the
 other preachers also, is a careful study of the
 Scriptures. Not that he hasn't studied the Scriptures
 -but he sometimes gives the most outlandish inter-
 pretations of Scriptures. He has inherited some
 customs and forms from the church in which he was
 converted, like women always wearing hats in church,
 and always repeating the Lord's Prayer in unison
 after a season of united prayer in every service. And
 he always uses the same form in every service. The
 first time that we are going to depart from that is in
 this conference in which I will be in charge-what a
 revolution! Man! how we wish we knew Creole-
 it's almost impossible to explain some things in Eng-

Nov. 13-The jeep will have 10 per cent duty. Duty is

 Well, we are now the proud possessors of a servant
 girl Ugh! Give us the good old U.S.A. where we
 can do our own work! But the little girl we have
 hired to do our laundry and other miscellaneous
 work seems like she will be very helpful when Mary
 gets her trained. Her name is Oxane Nazaire, and
 she says that she is 14 years old, though she looks
 about 10 or 12. We pay her $4 a month and give
 her room and board. So far, about all she has done
 for us is wash dishes and go to the store. She speaks
 no English so we (Mary in particular) are learning
 Creole fast-at least the words we need to tell her
 what to do.
