Lapland in 1925 and spent six years exploring the Malay jungle. “Centrah equatorial Africa is a delightful place in vjhich to spend the summer," Wells said. When the Massee expedition reached Tanganyka they found three Boy Scouts accompanying the Martin Johnson expedition, out shooting lions. “That blew holes into the stories that immense safaris are needed to hunt lions," Wells said. The expedition struck out across east Aftica in automobiles and traveled across an enormous plateau until they came to the base of the Mountain of the Moon, which is 17.000 feet hight and the tallest on the continent. At the base of the mountain they found a tribe of native called the Bachonjo. Although these natives live at the foot of the mountain, they have never climbed it and believe that the snow is salt and that the cold mists coming down from the snow-covered peaks are devils and evil spirits. Sixty of the naked natives \yerc dressed in warm clothing and taken along as bearers. It was necessary to take along a witch doctor who, according to the natives, would make the sun shine. “Whenever the sun went behind a cloud the natives would put down their wait for the witch doctor to call back the sun by blowing on a flute.

TWIN TO GOO, - URGESPASTOR Operate on Sorrows in Mind, Says Divine. Througn divine aid, major mental operations may be performed in times of greatest human sorrow and adversity, declared Dr. A. W Bcaven of Rochester. N. Y., in an address on “Transformed Limitations” at Lenten services held this noon at Keith's theater under the. auspices of the Church Federation of Indianapolis. “Thoughts that are dark and te: rifving may be severed and the attachments made to mental picture that are beautiful and inspiring through this operation,” he declared. “Through Jesus, we arc led to sec Him who 'like as a father Mentis over his children strengthening them with a strength that can onl; come out of the heart of eternity “This changed attitude and its transforming power is in line with the laws of the mental world. When Paul accepted the decision that the thorn in the flesh was not to be removed, the limitation shrank in importance. He focused on the task to be done and ignored the trouble.
