Hilliard, who had two tenures as the presiding prelate; Bishop C. K. Coleman and wife; Bishop' Arthur Marshal and wife and the Rev. Harold Clement, secretary, Foreign Missions. Also in the delegation were Mrs. Willa M. Rice, president, Women's Home and Foreign Missionary Society and other members of the executive committees. There were also members of "Friends of Africa" a group of persons who made it possible for more than $50,000 to be raised to aid the work here. In keeping with the rapport that Bishop Speaks has established and the image created by 100 years of missionary work, the U. S. State Department made the trip official, by alerting its embassies, in the three countries, that the' delegation would serve to aid in creating closer international ties between America and Africa. Toward this end, Bishop Speaks plans to finalize the acceptance of 4,000 acres of land, given by President William R. Tolbert. This gift is expected to motivate the entire program to the extent that new interest will be shown here and in America. The delegation will visit the schools and churches operated by the denomination and a hospital maintained by the denomination. They will also go to Accra and Nigeria. The delegation is expected to return to America on or about Feb. 3- . A man likes to come home to Black Velvet Smooth Canadian.
