with a poem or thought inspired
by the beauty and loveliness of
the month of June. Mrs. Ring read
the story of Marion Van. Home,
who is "Director of Christian
,Literature" for children and
adults in all countries, around the
world. 700 million adults didn't
know how to read or write.. BY
using Dr. Lauhach's simple pip-
torial alphabet they are learning
to read. Then the question arose:
why teach pepple to read unless
they have books in their own
tongue to read, Marion Van Herne
has been given the task of direct-
ing writers in all countries to
write hooks in their own language
for their own people. To meet,
this emergency Marian Van
Horne organized a Chrisitian
Writers' Conference at Green
Lake, Wisconsin and 07 young
men and women, 'Natives and
missionaries of 36 countries came
and completed a nine week's
course of training in writing
books for children and adults in
44 languages. Since then Marion
Van Horne has organized work
shops all over the world to train
native writers to write for their
own people. Her aim is half a
minima books in the next five
years. The Christian church has
taught people on three 'continents
to read and the communists have
been quick to seize this opportnn,
ity to pour in their literature.
The meeting Closed with a
hymn and Mizpah Benediction,
Jo the social hour that followed
contests, were enjoyed and, lunch
