In two of my letters, I mentioned the small colony of Americans in Mornungan, in the province of Mindanao. It is more than gratifying to learn that all the colonists are shaping well and are still enthu-asiatic as to the prospects for the future. In a letter to the Governor-
General from the Director of the Bureau of Agriculture, the latter speaks more than warmly of the fine work the men are doing. They have already practically cleared considerable portion of their lands, have erected houses, and in certain places have both ploughed and planted. The Director concludes his letter to His Excellency by saying that hi is "confident that] shi soon there will be no place in the island of Luzon that will compare with the American colony of Mornungan." s|GERMAN BOMBS IN
