News of the Community in Dakar

There arrived in Dakar the deputy and president of the Amili Charitable Society in Beirut, Mr. Rashid Baydoun, and the Lebanese community celebrated his coming with a great celebration; as did the Lebanese consulate and the men of the French authorities. And joy flooded the hearts of the community's sons at the success of the project of the Amili College—that college which sits enthroned with its lofty edifice in the heart of Beirut and performs its ample share in spreading the light of learning and knowledge.

The delegation will continue its journey to all parts of French and English Africa to complete its mission of collecting from the community the money needed to secure the expenses of the Amili College and to expand its works.
