results of the balloting for general superintendents,
 and also missions secretary. We'll probably know
 part of the story tomorrow or Saturday.
July 2-The music I arranged for the General Assembly
 was a quartet (male) arrangement of "Send the
 Light" for the "Showers of Blessing" quartet to sing
 for the Sunday afternoon missionary rally.
 Last Sunday morning we had one of the best
 services we've ever had in many aspects-it was just
 a good worship service with a good spirit, and the
 Sunday school went well too. Sunday night we had
 a bunch of visiting missionaries, five Wesleyans, two
 Baptists, and the mother of the single Wesleyan girl
 who is visiting her this week. Calhoon, who is head
 of the Wesleyan mission, spoke for us and the people
 enjoyed it very much. They always enjoy hearing
 another missionary preach in Creole. After the eve-
 ning service (one old man was saved), we had the
 whole gang up to our house for some ice cream
 and cake.
 How the Haitian people love children! It is con-
 sidered a tragic thing if there are no children in the
 family. The sad thing is that many of the children
 never get a chance to grow up-many of them die
 in infancy or early childhood. Probably more than
 3 out of 4 children do not get enough of the right
 kind of food, and most of them have intestinal worms
 that make them have "pot-bellies."
 Haitian children are very well behaved as a rule.
 I've never seen one getting a spanking, but the parents
 say that they do spank them once in a while when
 they are bad.
 They don't have any toys as a rule, but they play
 games with sticks and rocks with more interest than
 American children have for their expensive play-
 things. They sit in church and scarcely make a sound.
