Text Appearing Before Image:
who was working in the city some milesaway. A BAD HABIT One very sad thing I see wherever I go inthe islands. The children use tobacco — yes,even little girls! This evening as I sat for amoment in the tiny park by the mission house,a girl about eight years old passed by. Verygracefully she walked along, her shoulders up,and her head erect — so that the jar she wascarrying might not take a tumble. It was a picture I should have liked to see— except that in her mouth was a long roll ofblack tobacco! Sometimes I see little girlstaking turns smoking a long cigar, or it maybe passed around among a group of womenand little girls. The other day my husbandwas walking past a row of nipa houses, andan old woman who wished to be* friendlyoffered to let him take a whiff from her dirtyblack pipe! In the schools the children are taught howharmful tobacco is for them, so we hope thatby and by they will leave off this bad habit. Pietro is a dear little Cebuan boy whocomes to our Sabbath school.
Text Appearing After Image:
(270) HOUSES AND PEOPLE 271 What language will we speak in heaven?he asked his teacher one day. I do not know what language, Pietro, shesaid, but there will be only one language.Every one will speak it and understand it. Pietro thought this over. By and by hesaid, I know what language it will be — itwill be English. Why do 3^ou think so, Pietro? asked histeacher. Because the Visayans learn English, hereplied, but not many Americans learn Vi-sayan. His teacher speaks Visayan; but manyAmericans, even missionaries, do not take thetrouble to learn to speak these island lan-guages well. Those who do learn them areable to help the people much more than thosewho do not. Surely it is worth while taking the troubleto learn these languages, so that some of thepeople who speak them may be among thosewho speak the language of heaven by and by. PANAY AND NEGEOS Iloilo is a busy place; it is the largest cityon Panay, and here a great many boats comebringing their cargoes, and sail away againwith
