' By Social and Industrial Work '

Mr. Shillito mentions in his talk that a friend of his travelling through the bush suddenly came at N'Kana on a modem plant in the midst of which was being erected a chimney which was to be the second highest in (he world. How more strikingly could the sudden change and the urgent need be exemplified ?
