January 1, 1932, Miss Myrna A. &.mnben, who also went out from Eng- land, was married to him. The cere- mony, which was performed by the father of the bride, who accompanied her to Africa, was the first wedding ever performed in that section of fll" dark continent in which a white couple | participated. Three sons have been born to them there. | The Kisii people occupy that section | known as the Victoria-Nyanza, which is directly on the Equator, and for a ! long time after Rev. Beavon located | among the Kislis, they would call to | him from their kraals in order “to get a good look” at the first white man they ever had seen. Finding that they had no written language, Mr. Beavon bent himself to the task, and in order to be sure of ar- ranging words and sentences in har- mony with their rules of the spoken language, he first wrote & primer. Then | he transiated 104 gospel hymns, and | Iater the Book of Matthew, since ac- cepted by the British Bible Society, and which is still the only part of the Blblt reduced to writing in the Kisii. | “I reduced the Kisii to writing in order that the women and girls might have a language they could write, as they were not acquainted with the Ki-swahili, the lshguage that the men use, and which we use in our mission sthools,” he said. Mr. Beavon also has mastered the Ki- mhm “When I arrived among’ the Kisiis there wasn't a convert to the gospel,” said Mr. Beavon. “They were warlike, frequently engaging in bloody encour- | ters with the Lumbwas and Masais in | the adjoining reserve. Today the ! Seventh-day Adventists, under whose direction I have been working, have seven organized churches, with an aver- age membe of more than 60 to each church; e are 800 candidates in the baptismal classes in preparation for membership in the denomination, and we are operating 90 out or bush schools, with 124 native evangelistic ‘workers and teachers on.our pay roll. “The Kisiis are generally vegetarians. ‘They called me for a long time ‘a pig eater,’ until I told them differently, as they had been told that all white men are pig eaters. I am known among them as the only white man who ever went among them without & gun. “The natives never knew what ice Deyips DR NS = -[et us /\)e/wnu/z your : c4 i , Hiving Room - (omplete for 159 Complete Group of Twelve Pieces as Sketched Total Value, $200—You Save $60!
