              <text>Annotation translation: [Printed text on the rear of the card:] "In German Togo in West Africa, and in the neighbouring English territories, the North German Mission works at the conversion of the Ewe people. In the two towns of Lome and Keta German deaconnesses have taken over the running of the Mission's Girls' Schools and started kindergartens as well. A number of former black pupils assist them. They also run societies for unmarried young women to deepen their Bible knowledge. Naturally, in these institutions womens' handwork is given its proper place, and what the girls and young women achieve does the deaconesses and their pupils credit. The Deaconesses express their satisfaction with their pupils every now and again in the way which is familiar in Germany - they make an excursion with them. Recently the members of the Young Womens' Society could were able to make their first railway journey from Lome to Anecho on the new Togo Railway. They were taken free of charge - the management of the railway had sponsored the journey."; Annotation: [Gedruckter Text auf der Rückseite der Karte]: "Im deutschen Togolande in Westafrika, wie auch in dem benachbarten englischen Teil desselben, arbeiten Norddeutsche Missionare an der Bekehrung des Ewevolkes. In den beiden Städten Lome und Keta haben deutsche Diaconissen die Leitung der Missionsmädchenschulen übernommen und mit denselben auch Kleinkinderschulen verbunden. Ihnen stehen eine Anzahl ehemaliger schwarzer Schülerinnen als Gehilfinnen zur Seite. Daneben haben sie auch Jungfrauenvereine, in denen die älteren Mädchen in der Bibelkenntnis gefördert werden. Natürlich dürfen dabei auch die weiblichen Handarbeiten nicht zu kurz kommen, und die Leistungen machen den Diaconissen und ihren Zöglingen alle Ehre. Die Ersteren suchen ihren Zöglingen dann und wann ihre Zufriedenheit wie die Lehrer in den deutschen Schulen auch dadurch zu bezeugen, dass sie einen Ausflug mit ihnen machen. Erst vor kurzem durften die Glieder des Jungfrauenvereins ihre erste Eisenbahnfahrt von Lome nach Anecho auf der neuen Togobahn machen, und das alles umsonst, weil die Bahnverwaltung Freikarten gewährte."; Note: Datierung unsicher.; Note translation: Dating uncertain, but judging by the present tense in the "annotation" before 1914 and just after the opening of the railway line Lome-Anecho.
