Description	"MISSIONS AFRICAINES" "Debuts de la Pouponniere de Ouidah. On pose pour les amis de France!" A Catholic missionary father and three women pose outdoors with fifteen small children. Behind them, a building wall is visible.; The back of the postcard has some handwritten notes, and is stamped and postmarked. Written on it is "PROCURE DES MISSIONS AFRICAINES 11, Rue Crillien, PARIS". "Nous suivons avec attention tout de qui se passe en AFRIQUE, parce que L'AFRIQUE EST LE PAYS DE L'AVENIR. IL FAUT que les Missionnaires TRAVAILLENT de toutes leurs forces a conquerir les Peuples Africaines... et que LE MONDE CATHOLIQUE NE SE DESINTERESSE PAS DE CETTE CONQUETE". (S. S. Pie XI). Que le Seigneur benisse ceux qui favorisent cette noble conquete!
