Editor's note: From time to time we update our readers on
one of the most heroic human endeavors of this
century-the preservation of the Efé Pygmies of the Ituri
Forest in the heart of Africa.
T
IIE SURVIVAL
of the Pyg–
mies is my lifetime con–
cero. Yet
T
could never
have achieved it without many
other caring people, who, for the
last five years, faithfully have
stood by my work. 1 am pleased
to rcvcal that the overwhelming
majority of those became aware
of the plight of the Pygmies as a
result of two feature articles in
The Plain Truth:
"To Save A
People" (January, 1975) and
"Little People, Giant Man. Huge
Task" (September, 1978). With–
out this generous help from
The
Plain Truth
editorial staff and
the Worldwide Church of God
and its members our Pygmy
brothcrs and sisters could have
been completely extinct by now!
Now, it seems only fair that 1
should give readers of
The Plain
Truth
some details about what has
been done with your precious help.
