"Tho Liberal Accident and Disability Policlea aa
issued by tha N. F. &. C. Co. contain the largest
measure of every day protection."
Among the many interesting women In
attendance at the meeting; of the Congrega
tional Women's Board of Missions of the
Interior, In session in Omaha last week,
who have given up lives of comfort and
refinement, home, friends and all the
associations most dear, to carry Christ's
R-osnel to heat lien lands, none had a more
interesting story to tell than Mrs. W. M.
Stover and Miss Emma C. Redlck, mem
bers of one of the mission colonies In cen
tral western Africa.
Reducing the Jargon of an African tribe
to a written lnng-nnge Is the glgantlo task
In which tiflty have had a part while en
gaged wltii other missionaries in estab
lishing schools, and the general dissemina
tion of Christianity and better Ideas of
living-.
Twenty-six years ago a little band of
missionaries made their way ' up the coast
and then Into the Interior to the home of
the Ovimbundu people, or Angola, aa It
Is known, a Portuguese territory In west .
central Africa, where they established a
mission village from which haa grown one
of the most. Important mission station on
the continent. The year after the founding, 1
Mr. Stover Joined the party and the follow
Ing year Mr. Stover "came out." While
not contending, with a hostile people, the
task was a stupendous one, and chief
among the difficulties was the Inability of
the missionaries to communicate with the
natives, being unable to speak or under
stand a word of their language. Antici
pating this difficulty, the party had picked
up a Portuguese half caste on the coast,
taking him with them as Interpreter, but
much to their disappointment and mysti
fication, their overtures to th natives
through this medium proved unavailing 1
and no progress was made. Frequently '
their most friendly advance failed to
elicit any response and instead of Inspiring
confidence aa they had hoped among the '
people they had come to help. It was evl- J
dent they were often regarded with sus
picion. Interpretor Was m Pake.
Finally the mystery was explained. After
weeks of watching the natives and listen
ing to their talk, the missionaries began I
to acquire some understanding of the lan- '
guage, and then they" discovered that I
their Interpreter was a fraud. Whether I
maliciously or from Ignorance of the Ian-
guage himself It waa never fully decided.
but It was certain that this Interpreter
had not conveyed the message Intended '
for the natives, and he was hurried back
to hi home at the earliest opportunity.
From that time the progress was more
rapid, and while the worker have not
mastered the entire language as yet, a'
vocabulary of several thousand words ha
been acquired and I being taught In the
mission school to fully 2,000 pupils. I
With the progress of the work hag come )
the Important discovery that the Ovlm- I
bundu language Is developed from root
that form a substantial part of the basis !
of many of the other African languages. I
Even among the Zulus many worda and
prefixes are Identical with the Ovimbundu. j
It la one of what are known as the Bantu i
languages, and la supposed to have origi
nated In the Interior, a many tribe driven
out of there base their language upon the
same roots. The weary work of the mis
sionaries In reducing the pure native laJi- I
guage to writing before. It had been cor
rupted by foreigners ha been more than '
repaid and haa proven valuable beyond
their anticipation, as material assistance In i
learning the language of other tribes. The
Ovimbundu is the commercial language of
that section at present, and hlle the work- I
ers realize that It must In time give place I
to the German or English languages, lta
preservation In Its purity Is most valuable
and Its development Is being steadily pur
sued, i
Lanahaae Always la Order
Miss Redick relate that even as she
crossed the country, doming out to the
ooast enroute home, she fell In with 'a
party of missionaries from the south and
comparison of language showed marked
similarity, and In some case words and
prefixes Identical. So tar translations
have been confined chiefly to the books of
the Bible, but the translation of "Pilgrim's
Progress" has recently been completed
and other work Is In progress. A peculiar
system of reading has been developed In
l the mission school. Instead of using letters
''Syllables are used, and these are recognised
by sight Just as-letters are In other lan-
guages In a system of sight reading much
Ilk' that now employed In the primary
grades of our own schools. The language
so far embraces about twenty sets of syl
lables. Mr. Storer tells many amusing expe
riences Incidental to her early acquaintance
with the people and their language and the
slow and tedious method by which the mis
sionaries became familiar with them.
"We simply had to listen to and watch
the people and then determine the meaning
of the sounds they made by fitting them
to their actions," she said. "It was slow
work and many times we made ridiculous
and even serious mistakes, but after we
became sure of a number of worda we
found root from which we were' able to
work and little by little our knowledge Is
growing."
Mlstr.kes Eh-lly Made.
In Illustration she related an incident that
happened s'-on after her arrival. at the vil
lage. Whlie opening 'an of condensed
milk one day st.-- was attracted by a lot
of children who, ro.itvily much interested,
stood about Hatching her. When the con
tents of the can became visible the children
began chattering excitedly and she no
ticed that most frequently they uxed the
, word "okulla Over aaid over they said
1 It. pointing at the can and the milk, until
she decided they meant milk. In the note
book which the missionaries all carried for
that purpose she registered the word
"okulla and after It wrote "milk" with
a question mark. A few days later while
biy getting a meal she was again at
tracted by the children speaking the word
"bkulla." repeating It as they pointed to
the food she was preparing. But this time
It was a vegetable that she was working
' with and she knew her first conclusion hsd
been wrong. Finally, after holding up va-
rloua things for the children to nam and
with a questioning expression on ber face
I (for by expression and gestures alone she
could communicate with them), she dis
covered that for everything eatable they
promptly said "okulla," and so learned
that that was the native word for food.
This was among the earlier Important dis
coveries. On another occasion she relates
when some Inquisitive natives trespassed
upon the privacy of hci house she applied
to them a native word that she supposed
signified undue inqulsltlveneas. Evidently
much astonished, the natives gaxed at her,
but without grasping the very broad hint
she had Intended. Then she noticed that
two small boys who were employed abuut
the house. after exchanging alarmed
glances, dropped their work and hurried to
