THE BEST MISSIONARY STORY EVER TOLD.
One of the best stories over told appears in the current issue of Truth. It is given in a humourous commentary on previous arguments over the question of the ad- mission of coloured students to our uni- versities.
The story was received (says the writer) from a young graduate of Oxford, who has lately abandoned the clerical for the legal calling.
This young gentleman returned from the Great War with his two closest friends! in very serious state of mind. To- gether the three entered Balliol College; and there their seriousness rapidly de veloped into religious lever I mean fer- vour and they all agreed that as soon as they had graduated they would devote themselves to missionary work among the heathen.
"
BORNEO-OR WAS IT PAPUA? They kept their vows; and so great was their fervour "that they begged the mi sionary authorities to send them to the most heathenish place just then open!! So they were then sent either to Bornea or Papua, I forget now which.
They found the neighbourhood in which they began their labours as heathenish as they could desire; for they were plant-" ed among cannibals. A few of these along the coast had been weaned from their wicked ways and professed and called themselves Christians.
But in the interior heathenism and ean- nibalism still prevailed, and it was to the interior that the three young mision- arics were direeted, to carry the fight"of! the Gospel.
Now, it so happened that in one of their excursions for this purpose they wer captured by the natives, who promptly trussed them up and began pre. parations to make a feast of them.
The young men watched with horror the building up of three large fires, the production of three large pots, the shar pening of khives made of fish bones, and the floating looks which their emptore from time to time cast on them.

The missionaries had practically ahan- doned hop when their attention aroused by the arrival of huge, negro, adorned with more feathers and shel and dyed in more striking colours than the other cannibals. From the deference with which he was received they rightly guessed that he was the chief of the tribi.
He seemed at first, much pleased at the situation, but after examining the, cap- tives closely be called a palaver.
The missionaries' knowledge of the cal lingo was, only slight: but slight al it was, what they could make out of the sperches irgan to raiso hope, in breasts.

It was clear the chief was objecting to their being "cooked. There was consider- able opposition to his view. This opposi tion became so hot that, the chief found. it necessary to club his chief opponent.
He hit the tribesman on the head, with his bludgeon, and the subsequent" pro- ceedings interested him no more." Even that was not sufficient to silence protest, and before the chief succeeded in carry- ing his motion upanimously he had to j club six others.
The motion carried, the chief selected a dozen of his most trusty clansmen, who at once released the three missionaries from their bonds, y
Then the chief said in good English with a slight Oxford drawl: "I am very sorry you have been inconvenienced, gentlemen but all is well now. These warriors will see you safely back to the missionary station, and so good-bye." Then he whispered an aside:
Pra dressed so differently that probably you do not recognise me, but I recognise you well enough. You were along with me at Balliol three years ago: and, of course, no. Balliol man could think of eating a fellow Ralliol man..
