not under white conditions, but under the 
conditions which he will actually have to 
face when he goes back to his people, to live 
among them, and, 
if things go well, to 
be in his turn a con¬ 
scious or uncon¬

At lunch, in ad¬ 
dition to the mis¬ 
sionaries and their 
wives and children, 
there were half a

out of the country 
for eight years, and 
showed no ill effects 
whatever; on the 
contrary, I quite be¬ 
lieved Mrs. Hurl-

that she regarded 
the fertile wooded 
hills of Kijabe, 
with their forests 
and clear brooks, 
as forming a true 
health resort.
