Speaking of our sanitarium for tuber- culars at Wheat Ridge, Colo., the Rev. Arnold Meyer, one of our Lutheran mis- sionaries to China, says: “Incidentally, but not secondarily, our sanitarium does lS . not only attend to the sick bodies of the Eiict | patients, but also provides proper food for ey 24} ©6their souls. Our sanitarium is not only [SAE «6oan institution of mercy, but also a mis- sionary institution.” What a blessing that the afflicted here are made well not only physically, but are also cared for spiritually! The work at Wheat Ridge calls for $65,000 for the coming year. The funds are to be made available again through the sale of the well-known Wheat Ridge Christ- mas Is. All friends of our Christian missions will sisdlyide their bit for this truly important cause.
