The Spirit of missions . ast year,which has raised $170 toward building fa church. In addition, lots have beenpromised on which to build. Plains is another town twenty-sixmiles farther east, where we have a few dcommunicants.

That is the waythe Church must be planted in new t!fields. The larger number of the clergy iiof Montana are doing such work all the* \time and I am thankful to have helpers ?who are willing to do it.
