GRENFELL SPEAKS ON LABRADOR AT P. B. H. TONIGHT

Dr. W. T. Grenfell, famous Labrador mission-worker, will speak on "Labrador" at 7.30 o'clock this evening in Peabody Hall, Phillips Brooks House. His talk will be illustrated by moving pictures taken on the coasts of Labrador and Northern Newfoundland. These pictures will show the different fields of activity of the Grenfell Mission, besides helping to give the audience an idea of the living conditions in Labrador. The speaker will be introduced by Professor R. A. Daly '93.

Dr. Grenfell first started his mission work 30 years ago, after having worked for several years among the fishermen of the North Sea and Irish Coast. He began his work entirely alone, by going from village to village and giving whatever medical aid he could. Being financed by the British Deys Lea Mission, he was able to gradually increase the scope of his work. Year after year he added more and more workers to his organization until now he is able to clothe, educate, and give medical aid to ten thousand people, scattered along about 600 miles of coast line.

A great amount of labor is required to keep up the various organizations connected with his work, and for many years college men from Harvard, Yale, and Princeton have volunteered to do this work. The duties of a volunteer are extremely interesting, including, among other things, cruises along the coast, and instructive work among the natives.
