It ha been the happiest four months of my life. When, I first arrived in the Mission Field I was sent to the Southwest Misrou ;i District to labor. I had the opportunity of working with the Djstrici President, Elder 'Grant C. Porter from Lewiston, Utah. We traveled throughout the district and visited the Missicriairies. I also had the, opportunity of doing a little country work. Then I was transferred to 'Spring-fiel- d where I have been' laboring since Since ,the first of April we have had abqut thirty three people' brought intp the fold of Christ through the .wafers of baptism in this district. So it soe ms that missiioncry work is progressing very well. I have had many experiences' and they all seem to- strengthen my testimony. About a month ago we were e2jUe.cl to P.lad, Missouri, some' 70 miles away to- hold a funeral for one of our good sisters who passed away.
