HOME  MISSIONS. 


One  Hundred  and  Seventh  Annual  Report. 


The  Board  of  Home  Missions  presents  its  one  hundred  and 
seventh  Annual  Report  to  the  General  Assembly. 

During  the  year  the  following  missionaries  have  ceased  from 
their  earthly  labors  and  entered  into  rest  and  reward : 

Rev.  John  J.  Hall Providence,    Rhode    Island. 

Rev.  Alonzo  Harlan Clarksville,  Arkansas. 

Rev.  William  D.  Kidd Stirling     City,     California. 

Rev.  John  Chase  Lord Farmington,  New  Mexico. 

Let  the  Church  record  their  names  with  gratitude  and  appre- 
ciation. 

The  Rev.  Donald  McDonald,  D.  D.,  for  many  years  our 
honored  and  beloved  synodical  missionary  for  Kentucky, 
resigned  his  office  in  September  for  the  purpose  of  accepting 
the  superintendency  of  mission  work  in  the  Presbytery  of 
Pittsburgh.  Very  soon  after  entering  on  that  work  he  was 
called  home.  The  Board  desires  thus  to  put  on  record  its  tes- 
timony to  his  devotion,  fidelity  and  efficiency  in  all  the  years 
of   his   service. 

FINANCES. 

While  the  effects  of  the  panic  have  been  felt  by  us, as  by  benev- 
olent organizations  generally,  there  is  much  cause  for  thanks- 
giving in  the  large  total  received  by  the  Board,  the  gross 
amount  being  $1,073,971.76.  This  is  the  largest  sum  ever 
reported  to  the  Assembly  by  this  Board.  There  has  been  some 
advance  along  nearly  every  line,  the  receipts  from  legacies 
showing  the  largest  increase,  aggregating  $230,373.55.  The 
churches  have  advanced  only  $2,843.45. 

The  real  advance  is  somewhat  greater  than  these  figures 
show,  because  the  Synod  of  Kansas  has  kept  its  home  mission 
offerings  for  its  own  support,  and  the  Presbyteries  of  Port- 
land and  Los  Angeles — the  largest  on  the  Pacific  Coast — taking 
care  of  their  own  work,  send  as  a  consequence  small  amounts 
to  this  Board.  Even  so  it  bears  no  proper  proportion  to  the 
increase  of  our  obligations. 

The  growth  of  the  work  has  however  entailed  larger  expense 
than  in  any  previous  year.     The  new  departments,  which  by 


4  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [iQOQ- 

direction  of  the  General  Assembly  have  been  added  to  our 
work,  have  increased  our  budget  by  much  over  one  hundred 
thousand  dollars.  Indeed  in  the  last  ten  years  the  cost  of  our 
work,  including  that  in  the  islands,  has  reached  an  increase 
of  two  hundred  thousand  dollars.  The  advance  in  gifts  has 
not  kept  pace  with  these  new  responsibilities.  The  result  was 
that  last  year  we  were  obliged  for  the  first  time  in  a  decade  to 
report  a  deficiency  in  the  treasury.  It  amounted  approxi- 
mately to  forty-eight  thousand  dollars.  Our  total  debt  as  of 
April  first  was  $66,611.18.  The  Board,  however,  presents  a 
clean  balance  sheet  because  it  has  used  a  reserve  fund  which 
had  been  created  for  such  emergencies  to  meet  its  obligations. 
It  begins  the  new  year  therefore  unembarrassed  by  debt. 

But  it  suffers  another  embarrassment.  The  estimates  of  need 
from  the  various  departments  exceed  the  probable  income  of 
the  coming  year  by  nearly  two  hundred  thousand  dollars.  How 
to  bridge  the  chasm  has  given  the  Board  much  serious  con- 
cern. Two  courses  were  open.  One  was  to  make  appropria- 
tions approximately  according  to  request  and  face  the  certainty 
that  the  end  of  the  fiscal  year  would  bring  its  reprisals.  The 
other  was  to  scale  down  our  appropriations  to  approximately 
our  expected  income.  In  view  of  our  promise  to  the  Church 
to  incur  ncf  large  debt,  the  Board  resolved  upon  the  latter 
course.  It  will  bring  much  disappointment  to  the  entire  work. 
It  will  bring  especial  hardship  to  presbyterial  work  and  to  the 
new  plan  of  pastor-evangelist.  But  we  are  sure  that  the  pres- 
byteries which  shall  suffer  by  this  serious  reduction  will 
approve  the  business  judgment  that  thus  g:uards  us  from  large 
obligations  we  would  be  unable  to  meet.  If  the  progress  of 
the  year  shall  give  us  unexpected  returns  we  will  rejoice  to 
advance  in  the  work  as  rapidly  as  those  returns  shall  justify. 

In  the  meantime  the  stern  necessity  will  not  be  wholly  a  dis- 
aster if  it  shall  arouse  the  Church  to  her  duty, — if  it  shall  give 
her  a  vision  of  the  meaning  of  home  missions  to-day,  and  shall 
say  to  her  in  commanding  tones,  there  is  much  land  yet  to  be 
possessed,  new  and  nation-trying  problems  yet  to  be  solved ; 
and  only  a  vastly  deeper  consecration  and  vastly  larger  ser- 
vice can  save  the  country  or  the  Church  from  perils  not  to  be 
measured  in  terms  of  dollars  and  from  the  loss  of  worldwide 
opportunities,  to  fail  in  which  will  be  to  be  false  to  the  Mas- 
ter's commission. 

HOME    MISSIONS    COUNCIL. 

One  of  the  most  important  events  of  the  year  was  the  organ- 
ization last  .spring  of  a  Home  Missions  Council.  Its  con- 
stituents are  representatives  of  seventeen  national  home  mis- 
sion Boards  and  Societies.  Its  aim  is  the  evangelization  of 
America  by  counsel,   cooperation  and,   so   far  as  practicable, 


1909.]  BOARD    OF    HOME    MISSIONS.  5 

the  federation  of  home  mission  efforts.  Under  its  auspices  an 
interdenominational  campaign  was  conducted  during  January, 
February  and  March.  Our  Presbyterian  Home  Board  entered 
lieartily  into  the  plans  and  loyally  supported  the  effort.  The  meet- 
ings in  the  various  cities  visited  gathered  members  of  all  the 
Protestant  churches  and  in  many  places  exerted  a  profound 
influence  for  a  completer  union  of  home  mission  effort.  The 
cities  reached  were  Brooklyn,  Hartford,  Buffalo,  Cleveland, 
Pittsburgh,  Baltimore,  Atlanta,  Philadelphia,  Nashville,  St. 
Louis  and  Omaha.  The  meetings  held  in  each  city  extended 
over  parts  of  two  days.  Among  the  subjects  treated  were  the 
following:  "Today's  Outstanding  Problems  of  Home  Mis- 
sions" ;  "The  Unity  of  the  Church  in  its  Mission  to  Amer- 
ica" ;  "A  Christianized  America — For  Nation  Building" ;  "A 
Christianized  America — For  World  Redemption" ;  "The 
Backward  Peoples" ;  "Our  Expanding  Frontiers" ;  "The  Im- 
migrating and  Emigrating  Peoples" ;  "The  Church  and  Its 
Resources — the  Men  and  the  Means" ;  "City  Evangelization"  ; 
^'The  Church  and  the  Labor  Movement". 

It  is  hoped  that  this  Council  will'  be  able  to  devise  means 
whereby  the  overlapping  of  missionary  effort  will  be  greatly 
reduced,  if  not  wholly  eliminated^.  Plans  are  in  contemplation 
for  extending  to  all  the  constituent  bodies  of  the  Council  some 
such  arrangement  as  now  obtains  between  Presbyterian  and 
Congregational  Home  Mission  Boards  by  which  conferences 
on  the  field,  and  where  necessary  at  headquarters,  shall  secure 
not  only  comity  but  cooperation.  The  result  of  the  plan 
alluded  to  may  be  stated  thus :  During  the  year  four  cases  of 
alleged  violations  of  comity  have  come  to  the  attention  of  the 
two  Boards.  All  of  them  were  adjusted  harmoniously  on  the 
field.  In  one  of  these  cases  a  division  of  the  state  was  agreed 
upon  by  which  similar  occasions  will  be  avoided  in  the  future. 

ADVISORY    COUNCIL. 

Another  important  event  of  the  year  occurred  in  November 
when  representatives  of  the  self-supporting  synods  met  in  our 
assembly  room  for  conference  with  the  officers  of  our  Board, 
in  accordance  with  the  direction  of  the  Assembly,  and  organ- 
ized an  Advisory  Council,  to  the  end  that  there  might  be  more 
definite  cooperation  with  the  Home  Board  and  a  coordina- 
tion of  effort  for  the  great  national  work.  The  Council  is  to 
consist  of  one  delegate  from  each  of  the  self-supporting  syn- 
ods and  three  delegates  from  the  Board  of  Home  Missions. 

Two  days  were  spent  in  the  most  earnest  and  brotherly 
discussion.  Plans  were  considered  for  advance  movements  in 
the  synods  and  in  the  Board,  a  report  of  which  will  be  made 
to  the  Assembly  by  the  Advisory  Council. 


6  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [19O9. 

This  Council  will  work  for  the  unity  of  the  great  home  mis- 
sion cause ;  will  keep  the  Board  in  close  and  sympathetic 
touch  with  the  work  in  every  self-supporting  synod;  will  help 
to  extend  self-support  to  other  synods;  and  will  unite  all  the 
home  mission  forces  for  the  solution  of  various  home  mis- 
sion problems  in  the  respective  states  and  for  the  more  effec- 
tive conduct  of  the  national  work.  Not  in  many  years  has  a 
forward  step  been  taken  which  seems  to  the  Board  to  promise 
better  things  for  the  cause  of  American  evangelism. 

DIFFUSION  OF  INFORMATION. 

Much  effort  on  the  part  of  the  Board  this  year  has  been 
expended  to  utilize  the  knowledge  which  the  people  already 
have.  More  effective  systems  of  church  finance  are  desired 
in  all  our  territory.  The  Board  has  maintained  a  special  repre- 
sentative throughout  the  year  working  in  the  interests  of  more 
effective  church  finance.  The  Rev.  A.  F.  McGarrah,  last  year 
and  the  year  before  fulfilling  a  special  commission  under  the 
Board,  has  this  year  been  devoting  his  whole  time  and  strength 
to  this  effort.  The  best  methods  discovered — not  alone  in  our 
Church  but  throughout  the  country — have  been  utilized,  and 
by  sympathetic  conferences  with  church  officers  adaptations 
have  been  made  to  local  needs.  Testimonials  as  to  the  value  of 
this  effort  have  been  emphatic  in  their  endorsement.  The  field 
for  such  effort  is  so  wide  that  it  seems  even  yet  almost 
untouched.  Few  churches  have  in  operation  a  w^ell-ordered 
system  of  handling  their  moneys  ;  and  until  such  conditions  are 
taken  vigorously  in  hand  home  missions  in  all  its  phases, — 
indeed  the  very  life  of  the  church  itself, — must  lag  or  languish. 

Yet  the  people  do  not  know  enough  of  the  widespread  need 
and  opportunity.  Extensions  have  been  made  during  the  year 
in  the  presentation  of  facts  and  appeals  through  literature  and 
otherwise. 

The  modification  of  plans  made  by  several  of  the  self-sup- 
porting synods,  noted  in  their  various  annual  reports,  has 
opened  a  broader  field  for  education  and  inspiration.  Cooper- 
ation under  various  methods  in  the  interests  of  home  missions 
is  now  possible  in  all  parts  of  the  country. 

In  November  and  December  important  series  of  conferences 
were  held  in  Ohio.  Illinois  and  Indiana,  imder  the  direction  of 
the  presbyteries.  A  member  of  the  Board's  official  staff  accom- 
panied the  leaders  of  the  presbyteries  and  synods.  Special 
emphasis  was  laid  upon  the  message  and  the  methods  pre- 
sented by  Mr.  McGarrah.  Interest  was  aroused,  and  the  way 
was  opened  for  further  personal  effort  there  on  his  part. 
Earlier  in  the  fiscal  year  his  efforts  were  claimed  by  the  Synod 


1909. J  BOARD    OF    HOME    MISSIONS.  7 

of  Kansas,  with  whom  the  Board  eagerly  cooperated  in  putting 
plans  of  self-support  into  operation. 

As  last  year,  important  conferences  were  held  in  the  South 
and  Southwest  with  home  mission  committeemen  and  pastor- 
evangelists.  The  development  of  more  effective  methods  has 
been  very  marked  in  that  territory.  A  great  amount  of  liter- 
ature has  been  distributed,  resulting  in  a  commensurate  broad- 
ening of  acquaintance  with  the  work  of  the  whole  Church 
throughout  the  country.  These  educational  efforts  have  been 
specially  valuable  in  this  territory,  since  a  large  proportion  of 
the  membership  there  was  included  in  the  former  Cumberland 
denomination. 

Grateful  recognition  is  made  of  the  fuller  service  rendered 
by  the  home  mission  committees  in  the  contributing  presby- 
teries. More  constant  communication  has  been  established 
between  them  and  the  Board.  They  have  been  increasingly 
zealous  in  reaching  churches  for  home  mission  contributions. 
The  number  of  non-contributing  churches  has  been  markedly 
decreased  owing  largely  to  their  effort.  Several  of  these  com- 
mittees have  showed  special  interest  in  putting  their  churches 
in  immediate  touch  with  the  literature  supplies  of  the  Board. 
Yet  fuller  cooperation  of  home  mission  committees  is  eagerly 
solicited. 

Some  three  hundred  churches  and  publishing  agencies  are 
reached  each  week  with  a  letter,  conveying  "Home  Mission 
Paragraphs",  available  for  reproduction  in  church  folders  and 
otherwise.  The  Board  will  gladly  extend  this  service  to  a 
broader  field. 

A  member  of  our  official  staff  is  a  member  of  the  Board  of 
Managers  of  the  Young  People's  Missionary  Movement,  which 
is  increasingly  effective  in  the  interests  of  home  missionary 
education.  This  movement  is  controlled  by  the  various  mis- 
sionary boards  of  the  country. 

The  Board  calls  special  attention  to  the  need  in  many  pres- 
byteries for  a  more  complete  coordination  of  home  mission 
interests.  The  rapid  development  of  new  phases  of  the  work 
has  naturally  called  into  being  new  agencies  to  meet  exigencies. 
These  calls  have  become  so  numerous  that  many  presbyteries 
maintain  three  and  four  distinct  home  mission  committees. 
The  interests  designed  to  be  fostered  by  these  committees 
are  all  important ;  none  should  be  neglected.  But  efficient 
administration  cannot  be  maintained  under  a  system  which 
segregates  intimately  allied  interests.  None  of  them  receives 
its  proper  emphasis  and  each  is  embarrassed  by  an  unnecessary 
tendency  to  conflict  and  friction,  as  unnecessary  as  it  is  embar- 
rassing. The  Board  is  eager  to  cooperate  to  the  fullest  in 
correctins:  these  conditions. 


8  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [  I909' 

Conferences  have  been  held  already  in  a  few  presbyteries 
in  the  interests  of  a  more  complete  coordination  of  forces,  and 
new  opportunities  will  be  improved  whenever  offered.  Each 
phase  of  home  missionary  work  needs  the  fullest  sympathy  and 
help  of  all  the  rest.  The  Board  seeks  to  keep  in  touch  with  the 
methods  being  adopted  by  progressive  presbyteries  and  is  glad 
to  pass  on  suggestion  of  improvement  wherever  the  conditions 
prompt. 

The  general  resume  of  the  past  year  in  the  four  large  terri- 
torial divisions  of  the  Board's  field  in  the  states  is  outlined  by 
the  respective  field  secretaries  as  follows : 

DISTRICT  OF  THE  SOUTH  AND  SOUTHWEST. 

For  this  section  the  Rev.  B.  P.  Fullerton,  D.  D.,  LL.  D., 
presents  the  following  statement : 

In  the  District  of  the  South  and  Southwest  there  are  nine 
synods,  to  wit :  Alabama,  in  which  is  included  the  Presbytery 
of  Florida;  Arkansas;  Kansas;  Kentucky;  Mississippi;  Mis- 
souri ;  Oklahoma ;  Tennessee,  which  embraces  our  work  in 
Georgia  and  North  Carolina;  and  Texas,  which  includes  our 
work  in  Louisiana. 

During  the  year  the  Synod  of  Kansas  has  assumed  entire 
self-support,  taking  care  not  only  of  its  missionary  pastors 
but  its  pastor-evangelists  as  well.  The  agreement  is  that  the 
treasurer  of  the  Board  of  Home  Missions  shall  be  its  treasurer 
and  that  the  relationship  between  the  synod  and  the  field  sec- 
retary for  the  district  shall  be  continued. 

The  home  mission  committee  of  the  Synod  of  Missouri  early 
in  the  year  determined  to  make  an  effort  to  put  into  the  treas- 
ury of  the  Board  for  evangelization  this  year  the  same  amount 
of  money  that  it  was  asking  from  the  Board  for  that  purpose. 
At  the  meeting  of  the  synod  in  October  this  action  of  the 
committee  was  most  heartily  approved  and  an  average  of  one 
dollar  per  member  for  home  mission  evangelization  was  fixed 
as  the  standard  for  the  synod.  It  is  the  sincere  hope  of  the 
leaders  of  the  Church  in  this  synod  that  it  will  not  draw  any- 
thing more  from  the  Home  Board  than  it  contributes  to  it  and 
that  it  will  henceforth  become  a  source  of  income  to  the  Board 
rather  than  a  beneficiary.  The  desire  of  the  synod,  so  far  as 
that  desire  has  been  expressed,  is  to  maintain  its  present 
relationship  to  the  Board,  using  the  treasurer  of  the  Board  as 
its  treasurer  and  passing  its  applications  for  aid  through  the 
Board  just  as  at  present,  so  that  the  utmost  cordiality  and 
sympathy  may  continue  between  the  synod  and  the  Board. 

Because  of  the  wide  extent  of  territory  covered  by  the  dis- 
trict and  the  importance  of  making  synodical  meetings  count 


1909- J  BOARD    OF    HOME    MISSIONS.  9 

for  most,  the  synods  in  the  district  have  by  agreement  adjusted 
the  time  for  their  meetings  so  that  it  is  possible  for  Board 
representatives  to  spend  the  entire  session  of  each  meeting  of 
the  synod  with  it,  giving  opportunity  to  meet  home  mission 
committees,  pastor-evangeHsts  and  missionaries,  and  time  for 
perfecting  plans  for  carrying  on  the  work  within  the  limits  of 
the  synod.  The  importance  of  the  synod  in  this  district, 
therefore,  to  the  Board  is  becoming  more  and  more  apparent. 
In  addition  the  Synods  of  Oklahoma,  Tennessee  and  Texas 
at  their  meetings  last  fall  directed  their  home  mission  commit- 
tees to  meet  before  applications  for  aid  were  made  to  the 
Home  Board  to  consider  the  entire  need  in  the  synod  and 
adjust  the  requests  made  by  the  presbyteries  so  that  the  whole 
territory  would  be  better  supplied.  The  committee  of  the 
Synod  of  Oklahoma  met  the  middle  of  January  with  the  pas- 
tor-evangelists and  field  secretary,  canvassed  the  whole  situa- 
tion, and  studied  with  care  the  entire  field.  Similar  meetings, 
attended  by  Mr.  McAfee  as  well,  were  held  in  Fort  Worth, 
Texas,  and  Nashville,  Tennessee,  the  last  days  of  February 
and  the  first  of  March.  It  was  the  judgment  of  all  who 
attended  that  such  meetings  were  most  important  and  should 
be  held  regularly. 

In  these  nine  synods  there  are  sixty-seven  presbyteries  and 
one  hundred  fifty-five  thousand  communicants.  Thirty-seven 
pastor-evangelists  have  been  at  work  during  the  past  year,  or 
part  of  the  past  year,  in  the  district.  By  an  agreement  between 
these  pastor-evangelists  and  the  field  secretary,  a  blank  form 
has  been  prepared  upon  which  they  submit  monthly  reports 
to  the  field  secretary,  from  which  it  is  clear  that  they  have 
done  a  work  which  could  not  have  been  done  without  them. 
Where  an  efificient  pastor-evangelist  has  been  employed  the 
results  are  manifest  in  better  organization,  in  fewer  vacant 
churches,  in  increased  offerings  and  in  the  general  efficiency  of 
the  work  of  the  presbytery. 

Dr.  Duncan  was  re-elected  synodical  missionary  by  the 
Synod  of  Tennessee  at  its  meeting  last  fall,  and  through  his 
persistent  and  painstaking  efforts  the  debt  on  our  Atlanta 
church  has  been  lifted.  Dr.  Hill  was  elected  by  the  Synod  of 
Missouri  at  its  last  meeting  as  synodical  missionary  for  another 
year  for  that  synod.  During  the  year  Dr.  McDonald,  the  syn- 
odical missionary  of  the  Synod  of  Kentucky,  resigned  his  work 
to  take  up  similar  work  in  the  Presbytery  of  Pittsburgh,  but 
shortly  afterward  he  passed  from  his  labor  to  his  reward. 
Arrangements  have  been  made  to  care  for  the  work  done  by 
him  in  Kentucky.  Dr.  Calhoun  has  divided  his  time  between 
the  office  of  evangelistic  superintendent  and  the  pastorate  of 
the  church  at  Marvville,  Tennessee.    He  has  rendered  valuable 


lO  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [  I909- 

assistance  to  presbyterial  home  mission  committees  and  has 
stimulated  the  work  of  evangeUsm  throughout  the  district. 

The  churches  in  the  district  are  very  largely  in  communities 
of  two  thousand  and  less  but,  as  the  young  people  are  gradually 
gravitating  from  these  rural  communities  into  the  cities,  the 
importance  of  maintaining  our  work  here  is  apparent.  Rural 
deliveries  and  the  location  of  high  schools  in  every  county  town 
and  the  improvement  of  district  schools  makes  it  imperative 
that  the  ministry  for  these  localities  shall  be  of  a  high  grade, 
if  we  maintain  our  hold  upon  these  young  people  who  are  the 
promise  of  the  future  Church.  While  the  immediate  returns 
may  not  be  encouraging,  nevertheless  when  it  is  considered 
that  the  bulk  of  our  ministry  as  well  as  officers  of  our  city 
churches  comes  from  these  localities,  the  importance  of  these 
fields  is  manifest.  However  it  is  difficult  to  organize  and  carry 
forward  any  comprehensive  and  effective  plan  for  work  where 
preaching  services  are  held  only  once  or  twice  a  month,  and 
any  estimate  which  may  be  put  upon  the  returns  from  this  dis- 
trict must  be  made  with  this  condition  of  things  in  view. 
Nevertheless,  the  books  of  the  treasurer  of  the  Board  indicate 
that  the  offerings  for  this  year  for  home  mission  evangelization 
from  these  scattered  communities  will  be  the  largest  in  the 
history  of  the  district. 

Litigation  growing  out  of  the  union  of  the  two  Churches  has 
been  in  process  for  almost  two,  years  and  has  continued  to  dis- 
turb and  demoralize  our  forces  in  all  the  district,  except  the 
Synods  of  Kansas  and  Oklahoma.  Church  houses  and  manses 
have  been  neglected  and  repairs  are  greatly  needed.  Communi- 
ties have  been  divided  and  it  has  been  exceedingly  difficult  to 
do  aggressive  and  systematic  work.  The  Supreme  Courts  of 
the  states  of  Georgia,  Illinois.  Kentucky  and  Texas  have  ren- 
dered decisions  declaring  the  union  between  the  two  Churches 
constitutional  and  giving  the  property  to  that  part  of  the 
Church  which  accepted  the  decision  of  the  Church  courts  and 
entered  into  the  union.  It  is  hoped  that  these  decisions  will 
quiet  the  disturbance  and  make  possible  a  more  aggressive  and 
systematic  efifort  in  the  years  to  come. 

The  general  condition  of  the  work  even  in  the  face  of  the 
diflficulties  to  which  reference  has  been  made  is  encourag- 
ing. There  is  better  organization  in  the  presbyteries  and  syn- 
ods, a  closer  fellowship  between  the  two  Churches  united  now 
into  one,  and  a  better  understanding  of  the  relationship  between 
home  mission  committees  and  the  Board,  with  a  well  defined 
idea  of  the  responsibility  of  the  one  and  the  rules  of  the  other. 
Evangelistic  meetings  have  been  held  throughout  the  synods 
in  the  district  that  have  resulted  most  encouragingly  and  many 
additions  have  been  made  to  the  Church. 

The  continued  growth  of  the  population  in  Texas  and  Okla- 


1909- I  BOARD    OF    HOME    MISSIONS.  II 

homa  makes  these  two  states  exceedingly  important  for  us  as 
a  Church.  In  the  last  year  the  population  of  Texas  has  grown 
not  less  than  half  a  million,  while  the  growth  of  the  new  State 
of  Oklahoma  has  been  phenomenal.  The  union  of  the  two 
Churches  in  these  two  synods  has  given  us  a  strong  and  active 
constituency,  and  support  given  to  these  synods  now  will  mean 
very  large  interests  for  the  Kingdom  of  God  and  the  Presby- 
terian Church  in  all  the  years  to  come.  The  rapid  development 
of  the  South,  such  as  we  see  in  Mississippi,  Arkansas  and  Ala- 
bama, prophesies  a  large  influx  of  population  in  the  immediate 
future,  and  it  is  ecclesiastical  statesmanship  for  us  to  plant  our 
cause  most  firmly  in  these  rapidly  developing  centers. 

The  foreign  population  and  our  obligation  to  it  has  become 
a  problem  in  this  district  during  the  past  year.  Bohemian  set- 
tlements have  been  formed  in  parts  of  western  Texas  and  the 
way  is  now  open  for  a  fruitful  ministry  upon  the  part  of  our 
own  Church.  Foreigners,  such  as  Hungarians,  Spaniards  and 
Greeks,  have  been  found  in  large  numbers  in  such  centers  as 
St.  Louis,  St.  Joseph  and  Kansas  City,  Missouri.  Some  effort 
has  been  made  by  the  Presbytery  of  St.  Louis  in  the  Synod  of 
Missouri,  in  connection  with  the  Presbytery  of  Alton  in  the 
Synod  of  Illinois,  to  minister  to  the  needs  of  the  Hungarians 
in  the  two  cities  of  St.  Louis,  Missouri,  and  East  St.  Louis, 
Illinois. 

The  presbyteries  in  this  district,  especially  in  Texas,  are 
necessarily  very  large  in  their  territory.  The  churches  compos- 
ing the  presbytery  are  greatly  scattered  and  are  in  rural  and 
rapidly  developing  communities.  This  condition  of  things  will 
make  the  pastor-evangelist  a  pressing  necessity  in  the  district 
for  years  to  come,  and  it  is  the  hope  of  the  brethren  of  the  field 
that  a  larger  force  of  these  evangelists  may  be  put  under  com- 
mission. It  seems  utterly  impossible  to  compass  such  a  terri- 
tory as  the  Presbytery  of  Amarillo,  in  the  Synod  of  Texas, 
which  embraces  fifty-two  counties — in  all  of  which  the  popu- 
lation is  rapidly  increasing, — with  one  pastor-evangelist  for 
the  presbytery.  In  these  new  communities  that  are  springing 
up  it  will  be  easy  to  plant  a  church  at  this  time.  To  let  the 
opportunity  pass  will  be  to  make  it  necessary  to  spend  a  larger 
amount  of  energy  and  a  larger  amount  of  money  to  do  the  same 
work  later  which  can  be  done  easily  now. 

The  relationship  between  the  pastor-evangelist,  synodical 
missionaries,  evangelistic  superintendent  and  the  field  secre- 
tary has  been  of  the  most  cordial  kind  during  the  year,  and  the 
field  secretary  expresses  in  this  report  his  appreciation  of  the 
continued  cooperation  upon  the  part  of  the  home  mission 
committees  of  the  synods  and  presbyteries  with  these  public 
servants  of  the  Church,  without  which  cooperation  the  devel- 
opment of  this  important  district  would  have  been  seriously 
retarded. 


12  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [  IQOQ- 

DISTRICT  OF  THE  NORTHWEST. 

For  this  section  the  Rev.  Robert  N.  Adams,  D.  D.,  presents 
the  following  statement : 

In  reviewing  the  work  accomplished  in  the  great  home  mis- 
sion field  of  the  northwestern  district  during  the  past  year,  I 
cannot  attempt  more  than  to  touch  upon  the  high  places  of 
success  and  the  low  places  (if  any)  of  defeat. 

It  is  gratifying,  however,  to  report  that  we  have  not  suf- 
fered any  signal  defeat,  and  that  there  has  been  a  gradual 
advance  all  along  the  line,  though  our  financial  showing  may 
not  come  up  to  our  expectation.  There  are  sufficient  reasons 
for  this,  the  most  important  among  them  being  a  short  crop, 
the  usual  check  to  business  matters  in  a  presidential  election 
vear,  together  with  the  effect  of  business  depression  in  the 
East.  We  hope,  however,  not  to  fall  below  the  advance  in 
offerings  we  made  last  year. 

EVANGELISTIC   DEPARTMENT. 

The  work  of  this  department  presents  many  features  that 
are  encouraging,  and  assures  us  that  when  the  department  has 
been  thoroughly  organized,  manned  and  equipped,  the  work  of 
home  evangelization  will  mark  a  more  rapid  advance  than  has 
ever  yet  been  made. 

The  evangelistic  work  is  preeminent  since  it  enters  into, 
vitalizes  and  develops  all  other  departments  of  the  Church,  and 
when  complete  in  its  organization  it  will  secure  a  simultaneous 
campaign  throughout  the  entire  country. 

THE   LUMBER   CAMP   DEPARTMENT. 

This  department  has  just  been  received  under  care  of  the 
Board  of  Home  Missions. 

The  field  is  located  in  the  northern  part  of  Minnesota  and 
is  divided  between  the  Presbyteries  of  Adams,  Duluth  and  Red 
River ;  and  is  composed  of  forty-seven  logging  and  lumber 
camps  averaging  about  eighty  men  to  the  camp,  which  with  the 
settlers  and  transients  makes  approximately  five  thousand  men. 

This  important  field  is  served  by  the  Rev.  F.  E.  Higgins, 
(known  as  the  Sky  Pilot  of  the  lumberjacks),  John  Sorn- 
berger,  a  Presbyterian,  and  Fred.  W.  Davis  of  the  Baptist 
Church,  who  are  experienced  in  the  work.  Mr.  Higgins  has 
charge  and  directs  the  movements  of  his  colaborers.  These 
three  men  preach  on  an  average  twenty-five  times  a  month. 
Since  January  first  there  have  been  twenty-one  definite  con- 
versions and  hundreds  of  others  have  promised  to  live  Chris- 
tian lives. 


1909-j  BOARD    OF    HOME    MISSIONS.  I3 

]\Ir.  Higgins  forwarded  to  the  Board  of  Home  Missions  dur- 
ing February  and  March  three  hundred  and  eight  dollars  which 
he  collected  in  the  camps  where  he  has  personally  conducted 
services. 

This  is  a  period  of  railroad  construction  in  that  region  and 
the  Great  Northern  has  a  new  line  running  north  to  War- 
road  ;  the  Northern  Pacific  has  one  from  Brainerd  to  the  inter- 
national boundary  ;  the  Duluth  and  Rainy  River  runs  north 
also  to  the  international  boundary,  and  the  Minneapolis,  Deer 
River  and  Rainy  Lake  road  has  now  thirty  miles  in  operation 
and  is  stretching  north  to  the  Canadian  line  which  it  will  soon 
reach. 

This  very  important  and  purely  missionary  work  should  be 
furnished  with  more  men  to  reach  the  needy  and  lost  ones — a 
description  of  whose  deplorable  condition  may  not  here  be 
attempted.  It  ought  to  be  sufficient  to  arouse  the  friends  of 
this  lumber  camp  work,  to  say  that  there  are  yet  three  hundred 
camps  in  Minnesota  employing"  about  fifteen  thousand  men  who 
have  not  been  reached  by  the  gospel. 

PASTOR-EVANGELISTS. 

There  are  now  under  commission  twenty-three  pastor-evan- 
gelists in  the  northwestern  district,  eight  of  whom  (one  for  each 
presbytery)  are  sending  in  Minnesota,  at  an  average  cost  to  the 
Board  per  man  of  nine  hundred  dollars  per  annum  and 
expenses. 

MINNESOTA. 

During  the  past  year  the  eight  pastor-evangelists  above  men- 
tioned have  been  in  continuous  service  in  their  respective  pres- 
byteries and  have  conducted  forty  series  of  evangelistic  meet- 
ings ;  preached  1457  sermons  ;  baptized  twenty-two  infants  and 
forty-one  adults.  They  report  296  conversions  and  188  additions 
on  profession  of  faith  and  twenty-nine  by  letter.  They  have 
organized  five  churches,  erected  twelve  houses  of  worship, 
served  182  churches  and  opened  seventeen  new  preaching  sta- 
tions. They  have  collected  and  sent  to  the  Board  $1750.09, 
this  being  $631.00  in  excess  of  their  traveling  expenses. 

They  received  from  the  Board  as  salaries  $6866.45  and  their 
traveling  expenses  have  amounted  to  $1118.56, — an  average 
for  each  of  less  than  eleven  dollars  per  month. 

In  consequence  of  severe  weather  and  unusually  deep  snows 
the  evangelistic  features  of  their  work  have  been  very  much 
interfered  with,  hence  the  results  have  not  been  so  great  as  last 
year. 

The   Synod   of  Minnesota  made   self-support  the  goal   for 


14  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [iQOQ- 

her  semi-centennial  year,  proposing  to  raise  for  evangelization 
and  mission  school  work  an  amount  equal  to  that  drawn  from 
the  Board ;  and  when  the  complete  statement  of  offerings  is 
announced,  notwithstanding  the  fact  that  the  fields  yielded  only 
about  one-half  the  usual  harvest  last  year,  we  believe  the  goal 
will  be  reached. 

NEBRASKA. 

The  Synod  of  Nebraska  under  the  leadership  of  the  Rev. 
W.  H.  Kearns,  D.  D.,  has  made  gratifying  progress  during 
the  past  year. 

The  synod  employs  five  pastor-evangelists  at  an  average 
cost  to  the  Board  per  man  of  $1040  and  expenses.  They  have 
organized  five  churches  during  the  year. 

Dr.  Kearns  says:  "Three  of  our  six  presbyteries  have  had 
the  services  of  a  pastor-evangelist,  viz. :  Hastings,  Kearney 
and  Omaha;  and  one.  Box  Butte,  has  a  Sabbath-school  mis- 
sionary and  pastor-evangelist  combined." 

One  cheering  feature  of  Dr.  Kearns'  report  is  that  fourteen 
churches  in  that  synod  during  the  year  reached  self-support, 
and  more  encouraging  still  that  twenty-four  churches,  by 
regrouping  and  by  securing  larger  subscriptions  from  the  fields, 
largely  reduced  their  applications  for  aid.  These  reductions 
have  been  brought  about  through  the  faithfulness  of  the  home 
mission  committees  and  the  work  of  the  pastor-evangelists. 
Thus,  by  attaining  self-support  and  asking  less  than  the  pre- 
vious year,  these  churches  have  released  more  than  three  thou- 
sand dollars  for  advance  work,  of  which  only  sixteen  hundred 
dollars  is  asked  by  this  synod  for  the  coming  year.  This  shows 
that  the  Synod  of  Nebraska  is  awake  to  its  responsibility  in 
the  matter  of  extending  the  Kingdom  within  its  bounds. 

Dr.  Kearns  also  states  that  the  home  mission  committee  of 
synod  by  a  unanimous  resolution  asked  the  Board  to  deal  with 
presbyteries  only  through  this  committee,  and  that  in  case  of 
emergency  (if  it  became  necessary  for  any  presbytery  to  apply 
for  funds)  such  application  should  be  endorsed  by  synod's 
committee;  also,  that  if  the  Board  finds  it  necessary  to  reduce 
amounts  asked,  such  reduction  should  be  pro  rata  or  propor- 
tionate to  the  amount  asked. 

The  committee  also  recommended  that  action  be  taken  by  pres- 
byteries requiring  all  home  mission  churches  to  raise  and  for- 
ward to  the  Board  the  full  amount  of  their  apportionment 
before  their  applications  will  be  considered  by  presbytery. 

Nebraska,  like  the  other  three  states  comprising  the  north- 
western district,  is  filling  rapidly  with  immigrants,  and  this 
creates  a  constantly  increasing  demand  upon  the  attention  and 
care  of  the  Church. 


1909- J  BOARD    OF    HOME    MISSIONS.  I5 

NORTH  DAKOTA. 

North  Dakota  is  still  attracting  the  attention  of  investors  and 
settlers. 

The  irrigation  projects  planned  and  in  process  of  develop- 
ment by  the  Government  will  add  immensely  to  the  value  of 
agricultural  lands,  while  railroad  companies,  always  on  the  alert 
for  profitable  extensions  and  construction  of  new  lines,  are 
developing  interests  which  make  the  state  a  study  for  future 
business  operators  of  all  classes. 

The  large  ranching  interests,  whether  of  sheep,  cattle  or 
horses,  are  giving  way  to  the  incoming  tide  of  tillers  of  the 
soil,  and  diversified  farming  will  presently  be  the  largest  source 
of  income  within  the  state.  Dr.  Brown  says  that  during  the 
past  year  some  portions  of  the  state  have  suffered  from  a  lack 
of  moisture  and  some  other  parts  from  unusual  hail  storms 
which  have  devastated  the  crops  of  regions  they  visited,  so 
that  church  finances  as  well  as  other  business  interests  have 
suffered  greatly;  and  the  meeting  of  synod's  home  mission 
committee  on  the  ninth  of  March  revealed  the  fact  that  the 
reductions  made  last  year  in  the  schedules  could  not  be  repeated 
this  year  as  touching  old  work. 

The  advance  in  giving  last  year  amounted  to  about  one  hun- 
dred and  fifty  per  cent  over  the  previous  year,  but  in  view  of 
hail  and  drought  referred  to,  together  with  the  political  condi- 
tions of  the  country,  their  efiforts  will  not  be  crowned  with  a 
very  great  advance;  yet  it  is  sincerely  believed  that  the  synod 
will  be  found  to  have  held  its  own  financially.  The  increased 
amount  added  to  the  schedules  by  the  home  mission  committees 
this  year  is  very  largely  for  new  work ;  and  yet  the  committees 
will  fall  far  short  of  meeting  the  calls  for  help  in  these  rapidly 
developing  regions  of  the  state.     Dr.  Brown  adds : 

"Although  the  conditions  have  not  been  favorable  for  great 
progress,  there  have  been  churches  organized,  houses  of  wor- 
ship built  and  dedicated,  and  these  wide  fields  are  calling  more 
loudly  than  ever  for  the  ministrations  of  the  gospel." 

We  are  hopeful  that  the  coming  year  will  develop  better 
things  and  that  we  shall  soon  see  the  synod  measure  up  in  all 
branches  of  the  work  as  it  should. 

SOUTH  DAKOTA. 

The  situation  in  South  Dakota  differs  very  little  from  that  of 
North  Dakota,  except  that  in  South  Dakota  the  immigration 
is  larger. 

Dr.  Carson  reporting  for  that  synod  says,  "The  opening  of  a 
large  Indian  Reservation  to  homesteaders,  and  that  to  be  fol- 
lowed by  a  larger  one  some  time  during  this  calendar  year,  will 


l6  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [  ly09- 

induce  many  settlers  to  locate  upon  these  reservations,  the 
larger  part  of  which  is  in  the  Presbyteries  of  Central  Dakota 
and  Black  Hills." 

Continuing  his  report,  Dr.  Carson  also  says,  "There  are 
some  new  communities  in  Aberdeen  Presbytery  of  a  more  than 
usual  stable  character,  that  need  the  attention  and  care  of  our 
Church." 

Further  he  says,  "Among  our  churches,  while  probably  as 
many  have  engaged  in  special  evangelistic  work,  more  has  been 
accomplished  in  a  larger  way  by  tmion  meetings  conducted  by 
independent  evangelists." 

Most  of  our  home  mission  churches  have  advanced  toward 
self-support  and  many  have  also  advanced  in  benevolent  con- 
tributions. "The  synod  needs  to-day  a  score  at  least  of  suit- 
able ministers." 

It  is  evident  that,  concerning  the  problem  of  the  lack  of 
means  and  men  to  supply  the  vacant  fields,  to  advance  into  new 
territory  and  to  occupy  and  develop  strategic  points,  the  pastor- 
evangelist  affords  the  only  solution. 

Dr.  Carson  further  reports  that  during  the  year  eight  churches 
were  organized,  four  churches  attained  self-support,  twenty 
churches  asked  less  than  the  previous  year,  five  new  church 
buildings  were  erected,  and  five  new  manses  were  built.  The 
net  increase  in  churches  is  very  little  but  there  has  been  a 
decided  increase  in  the  number  of  communicants. 

The  Presbyterian  Church  has  been  somewhat  weakened  in 
South  Dakota  by  the  loss  of  seven  churches  with  about  three 
hundred  communicants  who  have  gone  out  to  form  a  German 
synod.  They  were  faithful  and  conscientious  contributors  to 
our  beneficent  work  and  will  be  very  greatly  missed.  Four 
Bohemian  churches  also  are  joining  in  a  move  for  a  presbytery 
of  their  own. 

This  synod  has  three  pastor-evangelists  whose  work  during 
the  past  winter  has  been  unusually  trying  on  account  of  stormy 
weather  and  deep  snows.  A  unique  field  is  that  of  the  Dakota 
(Indian)  Presbytery  in  charge  of  the  Rev.  John  P.  William- 
son, D.  D.,  who  has  long  led  these  people  and  to  whom  more 
detailed  reference  has  been  made  in  this  report  under  the 
Indian   Department. 

ROCKY  MOUNTAIN  DISTRICT. 

For  this  section  the  Rev.  Robert  INI.  Donaldson.  D.  D.,  pre- 
sents  the   following   statement : 

Fifty  years  ago  the  advance  guard  of  our  Church  pitched  its 
tents  in  the  Rockies.  The  years  are  packed  with  enterprise, 
fidelity  and  fruitfulness.  From  this  center  the  work  soon 
spread  over  the  territory  now  comprising  this  district,  covering 
almost  the  entire  area  of  seven  mountain  states. 


1909- J  BOARD    OF    HOME    MISSIONS.  IJ 

The  year  just  closing  bears  the  marks  of  progress.  Four 
new  presbyteries  were  formed,  and  the  preHminary  steps 
taken  toward  a  new  synod.  These  divisions  are  in  no  case  the 
result  of  strife,  but  are  in  the  interest  of  economy  and 
efficiency.  For  many  years  distance  and  expense  have  been 
prohibitive  for  the  majority  of  the  workers. 

Aside  from  pastors  and  missionaries,  our  twenty-one  pres- 
byteries are  served  by  three  synodical  missionaries  and  seven 
pastor-evangelists.  Inadequate  as  this  force  is,  it  must  now  be 
reduced.  Many  new  churches  and  manses  were  built  this  year. 
New  organizations  were  efifected  at  strategic  points,  where  no 
other  Protestant  body  is  at  work.  Comity,  from  our  point  of 
view,  has  become  a  law  which  we  dare  not  transgress.  Not  all 
denominations  take  so  high  ground,  but  the  sentiment  grows, 
and  eventually  must  prevail.  We  have  secured  larger  local 
support,  and  increased  offerings  to  the  Board.  Many  churches 
and  presbyteries  have  made  heroic  progress  towards  self-sup- 
port. New  fields  are  open.  New  machinery  is  installed.  A 
new  spirit  of  service  prevails.  Never  before  has  there  been 
such  a  prospect  for  success  in  the  mountain  region.  Faith, 
hope  and  experience  command  us  to  go  forward  with  God. 
Retrenchment  actually  impoverishes  the  present  and  imperils 
the  future. 

SYNOD   OF    COLORADO. 

Half  a  century  of  work  in  Colorado  has  witnessed  many 
triumphs  of  the  gospel.  Noble  men  and  women  have  labored, 
and  the  Church  of  to-day  is  entering  into  their  labors.  With 
perplexing  problems  ever  present  the  work  has  gone  steadily 
forward.  The  shifting  population  of  mining  regions  opened 
great  fields  for  service,  but  left  little  in  the  way  of  permanent 
results.  The  camp  problem  abides  while  the  people  move  on. 
The  Mexican  problem  has  been  present  from  the  first.  From 
year  to  year  there  is  little  evidence  of  achievement ;  but  there 
are  individuals  and  communities  where  the  triumph  of  the 
gospel  is  strikingly  illustrated. 

Immigration  presses  itself  upon  the  attention  of  the  Church. 
Its  claims  must  be  considered  seriously.  It  is  estimated  that 
Colorado  alone  has  two  hundred  thousand  foreign  population, 
— more  than  three  times  as  many  as  all  her  Protestant  church 
members.  The  Woman's  Synodical  Society  determined  to 
enter  this  open  door,  and  maintains  a  helpful  mission  among 
the  Italians  of  Denver.  But  the  Church  itself  cannot  neglect 
this  responsibility  without  peril. 

Several  missionary  institutes  have  been  held  in  churches  and 
presbyteries,  where  the  financial  and  spiritual  interests  of  the 
Kingdom  were  considered,  and  where  the  personal  obligations 


l8  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [l909- 

of  the  Christian  were  frankly  discussed.  Financial  losses  due 
to  a  killing  frost  and  a  dry  season  hindered  several  fields  from 
attaining  self-support.  Heretofore  there  has  been  but  one 
presbytery  in  Wyoming.  Workers  residing  in  the  eastern  and 
northern  part  of  the  state,  in  order  to  attend  the  meeting  of 
their  own  presbytery,  were  dependent  upon  railroad  lines  that 
took  them  through  portions  of  Montana,  South  Dakota, 
Nebraska  and  Colorado  en  route.  It  was  neither  economical 
nor  reasonable.  The  new  Presbytery  of  Sheridan  was  formed 
by  the  last  synod,  and  is  entrusted  with  the  responsibility  of 
developing  that  new  field. 

SYNOD  OF   MONTANA. 

More  miles  of  railroad  were  built  in  Montana  in  1908  than 
in  any  other  state.  The  fact  furnishes  material  evidence  of  the 
far-reaching  plans  of  commerce,  as  well  as  of  the  imperative 
obligation  of  the  Church.  In  the  main  these  lines  open  regions 
formerly  inaccessible.  As  a  consequence  the  state  is  filling 
rapidly  with  a  desirable  and  prosperous  constituency.  It  is  the 
Church's  opportunity.  Two  pastor-evangelists  have  rendered 
faithful  and  fruitful  service,  for  which  the  people  have  given 
generous  support.  New  towns  have  sprung  up  as  if  by  magic. 
In  some  of  the  best  of  these,  ours  is  the  only  organized  Church. 
Reservations  opening  to  settlement,  and  the  completion  of  irri- 
gation systems,  together  with  the  development  of  dry  farming 
and  orchard  tracts  insure  a  continued  growth,  and  an  increas- 
ing obligation. 

Montana  has  always  moved  along  conservative  lines.  The 
members  of  the  churches  give  generous  local  support,  and  the 
presbyteries  conform  to  the  conditions  of  missionary  aid  more 
closely  than  is  usual  in  dependent  regions.  Every  church  in 
the  synod  becomes  self-supporting  before  its  membership 
reaches  one  hundred. 

SYNOD  OF  NEW  MEXICO. 

A  large  part  of  the  Mexican  and  Indian  work  of  our  Church 
is  within  the  bounds  of  this  synod.  Dealing  with  both  these 
people  we  are  going  up  against  the  dwarfing  and  pauperizing 
influences  of  centuries  of  Catholicism.  Their  missions  are 
hoary  with  age.  but  the  lives  and  conditions  of  the  people  are 
unimproved.  It  has  recently  been  said  of  the  Indians  that  they 
are  loyal  to  two  creeds.  Holding  fast  to  their  heathen  rites  and 
ceremonies,  they  at  the  same  time  give  allegiance  to  the  spec- 
tacular element  in  Catholicism  which  makes  its  appeal  to  the 
barbarian.  That  the  difference  is  apparent  to  the  Indians 
themselves  is  shown  bv  the  remark  of  a  chief  who  visited  one 


1909- J  BOARD    OF    HOME    MISSIONS.  I9 

of  our  missions.  He  said,  "I  must  go  back  and  tell  my  people 
what  I  have  seen  among  the  Pimas.  They  have  a  peaceful  and 
quiet  look  that  my  people  do  not  have.  It  must  be  their 
religion."  The  great  need  of  this  work  is  trained  evangelists 
who  can  meet  the  awakening  tribes,  and  lead  them  to  accept 
Jesus  Christ. 

The  American  leaders  in  this  synod  are  aggressive  and 
painstaking.  They  are  careful  students  of  conditions,  and  are 
trying  to  make  theory  and  practice  square  with  the  demands  of 
the  times.  The  Church  in  this  region  is  the  modern  Samaritan. 
The  world's  invalids  are  laid  at  their  door,  that  they  may 
receive  the  inspiration  and  recreation  of  the  dry  climate.  It 
imposes  an  additional  burden  on  our  workers,  drawing  on  their 
finances  as  well  as  their  sympathies,  while  it  adds  nothing  to 
their  support  and  growth.  They  have  sought  relief  by  estab- 
lishing a  Sanatorium  at  Albuquerque,  which  should  be  gener- 
ously endowed  by  the  wealthy  constituency  of  our  Church. 

SYNOD  OF  UTAH. 

Prior  to  1894  the  Synod  of  Utah  included  Montana  in  addi- 
tion to  its  present  area  consisting  of  Utah  and  southern  Idaho. 
Rapid  development  of  new  fields  in  Idaho  demands  closer 
oversight.  At  the  last  meeting  of  the  synod,  a  new  presbytery 
was  formed  in  Idaho,  with  Twin  Falls  as  its  center.  The  old 
Presbytery  of  Utah  was  divided  into  three  presbyteries, 
namely :  Ogden,  Salt  Lake  and  Southern  Utah.  An  overture 
to  the  Assembly  was  unanimously  supported,  asking  for  the 
erection  of  two  synods,  Utah  and  Idaho. 

The  great  problem  of  Utah  is  still  unsolved,  but  the  morning 
light  seems  breaking  upon  it.  Mormonism  is  sin — no  more,  no 
less.  The  Mormon  needs  Christ  more  than  he  needs  criticism. 
Those  who  have  been  saved  were  saved  by  the  power  of  Christ, 
not  by  the  power  of  argument,  nor  by  a  revelation  of  the 
hideous  doctrines  of  the  Mormon  Church.  There  is  no  other 
name  by  which  they  may  be  saved.  More  than  ever,  the  Pres- 
byterian Chvirch  must  give  itself  to  the  preaching  of  the  gospel 
of  Christ.  If  the  gospel  is  "the  power  of  God  unto  salvation," 
it  must  be  the  burden  of  our  story  in  Utah.  Among  our  work- 
ers the  conviction  is  growing  that  the  Lord's  money  could  be 
put  to  no  better  use  than  to  send  one  of  our  sanest  and  strong- 
est gospel  preachers  through  Utah,  to  bring  to  its  people  the 
plain  and  simple  story  of  the  love  of  God,  and  His  saving 
power  revealed  in  His  divine  Son.  The  most  encouraging 
work  done  in  many  years  was  the  summer  work,  with  tent  and 
gospel  singer.  It  reached  many  who  will  not  enter  a  church. 
Similar  work  is  projected  for  the  coming  summer.  There 
should  be  not  less  than  two  companies  at  work  in  southern 
Utah. 


20  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [  I909- 

Great  changes  have  been  wrought  in  pubhc  and  private  Ufa 
in  Utah.  Potent  forces  have  been  working  quietly,  as  a  leaven, 
to  transform  the  domestic  and  social  life  of  the  state.  Temper- 
ance has  developed  an  unexpected  strength,  as  opposed  to  the 
invested  interests  of  the  Mormon  organization.  Presbyterian- 
ism,  with  its  allied  forces  of  Church  and  school,  has  demon- 
strated both  fidelity  and  power.  But  this  very  demonstration 
requires  that  we  modernize  and  equip  our  schools,  and  that 
we  wage  an  aggressive  spiritual  campaign,  from  the  vantage 
points  already  gained. 

PACIFIC  COAST  DISTRICT. 

For  this  section  the  Rev.  William  S.  Holt,  D.  D.,  presents  the 
following   statement : 

In  Los  Angeles  Presbytery  the  movement  toward  self-sup- 
port has  been  consummated  and  that  presbytery  is  shouldering 
its  own  work.  It  is  also  planning  larger  things  for  the  work 
of  home  missions  within  its  bounds. 

Riverside  Presbytery  has  been  practically  self-supporting  for 
two  years,  for  without  any  vote  on  the  matter  last  year  it  sent 
the  Board  more  money  than  it  drew  for  all  its  mission  work 
and  this  year  at  the  fall  meeting,  by  unanimous  vote,  determined 
to  go  on  with  the  same  effort. 

San  Jose  Presbytery,  by  unanimous  vote  at  its  fall  meeting, 
decided  that  it  too  would  become  practically  self-supporting 
by  sending  to  the  Board  of  Home  Missions  at  least  as  much 
money  as  is  drawn  from  the  treasury  for  home  mission  work. 

In  Oakland  Presbytery  the  home  mission  cornmittee  recom- 
mended the  treasurer  to  send  the  Board  twenty-five  hundred 
dollars  which  was  three  hundred  dollars  more  than  the  amount 
appropriated  to  it  for  the  current  year. 

These  movements  show  the  progress  of  the  churches  toward 
accepting  their  own  responsibility  and  the  movement  will  spread 
until  the  synod  shall  be  actually  a  self-supporting  synod. 

The  Presbytery  of  San  Francisco  is  having  a  new  and  much 
needed  forward  movement;  it  began  a  little  more  than  a  year 
ago  when  the  home  mission  committee  was  quick  to  see  the 
need  of  opening  a  new  work  because  of  the  new  conditions 
following  the  earthquake.  Many  people  who  had  been  living 
within  the  district  destroyed  by  the  earthquake  and  fire  were 
forced  to  seek  new  homes.  The  movement  naturally  had  been 
toward  the  suburbs  and  there  sprang  up  within  the  limits  of  the 
city  extensive  suburbs  with  thousands  of  people,  in  which 
there  were  no  Protestant  churches.  Two  of  these  suburbs  were 
occupied,  church  buildings  erected  and  one  church  organized  in 
1907. 

Then  the  pastor-evangelist,  who  had  led  in  this  work,  the 


1909.]  BOARD    OF    HOME    MISSIONS.  21 

Rev.  Lynn  T.  White,  was  invited  to  the  pastorate  of  the  self- 
supporting  church  at  San  Rafael  in  Benicia  Presbytery,  and 
accepted  it  leaving  his  charge  to  the  Rev.'  G.  A.  Blair,  of  Port- 
land, Oregon,  who  had  been  elected  to  fill  the  vacancy.  Under 
his  work  four  new  churches  have  been  organized,  one  new 
church  building  erected  and  another  one  planned  which  is  in 
process  of  completion.  One  was  in  what  is  called  the  San 
Bruno  district.  The  work  was  begun  as  an  efifort  to  reach 
the  Jews  but,  not  succeeding,  it  was  taken  hold  of  by  the  home 
mission  committee  and  a  church  organization  formed  under  the 
name  "University  Mound".  It  has  a  pastor  and  is  prospering 
The  other  new  movements  are  Richmond,  where  a  new  build- 
ing was  dedicated  this  fall  and  a  pastor  has  been  secured ; 
Glenside,  where  there  is  being  erected  a  building,  still  under 
the  care  of  the  pastor-evangelist;  and  the  St.  James  church, 
the  foundation  for  which  was  begun  by  Mr.  White  and  the 
organization  completed  under  Mr.  Blair,  and  for  which  a  pas- 
tor has  been  secured. 

In  this  forward  movement  the  home  mission  committee  has 
had  the  backing  of  the  Board  of  Home  Missions.  It  is  indi- 
cative of  the  new  opportunities  that  are  opening  in  that  great 
city  and  of  the  desire  to  make  use  of  them  as  rapidly  as  pos- 
sible for  the  progress  of  the  Kingdom  of  God.  The  work  of 
the  last  year  and  a  half  augurs  well  for  the  future  of  our 
Church  in  San  Francisco. 

Nevada  Presbytery,  which  includes  the  whole  State  of 
Nevada  and  a  generous  slice  of  eastern  California,  is  the 
youngest  presbytery  of  the  synod.  It  is  but  a  year  old  and  a 
very  attractive  field  for  those  not  afraid  of  hard  work.  We 
have  fifteen  organized  churches  in  the  presbytery,  one  of  which, 
Bishop,  is  in  the  State  of  California.  Of  the  others,  Carson 
City,  Goldfield  and  Tonapah  are  self-supporting  while  all  the 
rest  are  dependent  upon  the  Board  of  Home  Missions;  but 
Elko,  after  thirty-eight  years,  has  reached  the  point  where  it 
is  not  willing  to  receive  help  longer. 

Reno  is  an  interesting  center.  It  is  the  capital  of  the  state, 
has  twenty  thousand  people,  is  surrounded  by  a  splendid  agri- 
cultural district  within  the  limits  of  irrigated  lands  and  has 
a  large  stock-raising  region  also  tributary  to  it.  It  is  the  seat 
of  the  State  University  and  naturally  gathers  much  of  the  cul- 
ture of  that  great  state.  The  mining  camps  have  attracted 
thousands  of  men,  among  whom  are  some  of  the  brightest  in 
the  United  States,  college  bred,  who  have  been  anxious  to  "try 
their  luck"  in  the  West. 

Our  Church  is  called  upon  to  advance  if  we  are  going  to  do 
our  part  in  the  work  of  the  state.  We  have  gone  back  into 
Virginia  City,  that  old  mining  camp  out  of  which  many  millions 
of  dollars  have  been  taken.     For  vears  we  left  it,  but  another 


22  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [l909' 

Church  was  there  and  the  people  did  not  suffer ;  then  that 
Church  withdrew  and  our  people  were  anxious  to  have  us  come 
back,  so  we  have  again  taken  up  work  there  with  considerable 
promise.  So  many  things  have  to  be  brought  from  a  distance, 
and  the  demand  of  the  mines  is  so  great  that  living  in  Nevada 
is  high.  Hence  there  is  a  need  for  larger  salaries  than  in  some 
states  in  order  to  meet  these  expenses  and  make  it  possible  for 
a  missionary  to  maintain  himself.  Through  the  help  of  the 
Sunday-school  missionary  and  the  pastor-evangelist  who  has 
gone  into  the  new  camps  to  do  what  he  could  for  them,  and  our 
synodical  missionary,  we  have  the  field  well  in  hand. 

Nevada  has  a  great  future  and  that  Church  is  acting  wisely 
which  uses  the  present  for  laying  strong  foundations  on  which 
the  future  shall  be  built. 

SYNOD  OF  OREGON. 

The  Presbytery  of  Portland  has  consummated  its  purpose  to 
reach  self-support  and,  as  the  originator  of  the  plan  on  the 
Pacific  Coast,  is  maintaining  its  position.  Under  a  strong  home 
mission  committee,  all  parts  of  the  presbytery  are  carefully 
organized  and  with  the  aid  of  the  Sunday-school  missionary, 
who  is  also  pastor-evangelist,  close  watch  is  kept  over  the  out- 
lying districts.  This  presbytery  has  given  more  for  home  mis- 
sions this  past  year  than  ever  before  in  its  history. 

In  southern  and  eastern  Oregon  there  are  forward  move- 
ments of  great  interest. 

The  Government  has  completed  its  irrigation  plan  in  Uma- 
tilla County  whereby  eighteen  thousand  acres  of  government 
land  have  been  opened  to  settlers.  The  unit  here  is  forty  acres 
and  the  requirements  are  that  a  family  must  settle  upon  and 
use  the  land,  paying  to  the  Government  in  ten  annual  instal- 
ments the  entire  amount  expended  in  the  irrigation  scheme, 
thus  giving  a  perpetual  water  right  to  the  owner  of  the  soil.  It 
can  be  readily  seen  that  there  will  be  hundreds  of  families  on 
this  eighteen-thousand  acre  tract  in  a  very  short  time.  At  pres- 
ent there  is  but  one  church  on  the  tract,  while  we  have  a  small 
plant  adjacent  to  it  which  we  hope  to  extend. 

The  Pendleton  Presbytery  has  also  reached  further  down 
toward  the  south  and  occupied  newer  territory,  organizing  two 
new  churches.  It  has  also  made  its  first  attempt  in  the  Hood 
River  district  at  the  extreme  western  end  of  the  presbytery 
and  has  planted  a  flourishing  church  in  the  wondrous  fruit 
region  of  the  Hood  River  valley.  In  this  presbytery  there 
remains  yet  very  much  land  to  be  possessed.  The  Indian 
work  here  is  worthy  of  special  note. 

The  Grande  Ronde  Presbytery,  for  the  first  time  in  several 
years,  has   every  field  within  its  bounds  well  manned.     The 


1909.  J  BOARD    OF    HOME    MISSIONS.  23 

missionaries  are  an  earnest,  devoted  set  of  men  and  are  taking 
hold  of  their  work  with  fine  spirit  and  it  is  moving  forward  sat- 
isfactorily. 

In  the  western  section  of  Southern  Oregon  Presbytery  there 
is  developing  rapidly  in  Klamath  County  a  scheme  for  irriga- 
tion that  will  open  thousands  of  acres  of  land  for  cultivation. 
A  healthy  climate,  good  soil  and  bounteous  water  supply  should 
fill  this  district  with  good  American  settlers  who  will  make 
homes  in  this  splendid  land  of  promise.  We  have  three 
churches,  one  at  Klamath  Falls  which  has  become  self-sup- 
porting; the  other  two,  fifteen  and  twenty-five  miles  respec- 
tively distant  to  the  southeast.  Lake  County,  in  the  same  pres- 
bytery, is  beginning  to  attract  attention.  A  great  portion  of 
this  county  belongs  to  a  company  which  has  just  been  putting 
it  on  the  market  in  tracts  of  from  ten  to  one  hundred  and 
sixty  acres,  and  with  each  tract  is  given  a  city  lot.  This  has 
been  advertised  in  the  East  and  men  are  turning  their  attention 
that  way  to  make  homes  in  a  region  which  has  been  left  alone 
too  long. 

SYNOD    OF    WASHINGTON 

There  is  a  new  movement  throughout  this  entire  state.  The 
Milwaukee  and  St.  Paul  Railroad  is  building  through  the  state 
to  Puget  Sound,  the  North  Bank  Railroad  into  Portland.  Along 
the  North  Bank  River  from  Pasco  and  along  these  two  lines, 
settlements  are  now  rapidly  springing  up,  with  great  need  for 
church  work.  A  visit  to  one  of  them  not  long  ago  showed  a 
center  surrounded  by  vast  resources,  to  which  a  thousand  peo- 
ple are  tributary  and  in  which  last  year,  as  vouched  for  by  a 
resident,  two  hundred  and  fifty  thousand  dollars  paid  the  drink 
bill.  There  were  seventeen  saloons  in  the  town  and  no  church 
of  any  sort  at  work.  An  occasional  visit  by  a  minister  has 
been  given,  but  nothing  permanent  has  yet  been  done. 

In  Spokane  Presbytery,  the  new  settlements  along  the  Colum- 
bia River  and  the  rapid  growth  of  the  city  of  Spokane  are  mak- 
ing large  demands  upon  the  Board.  With  its  help  new  churches 
are  being  organized  in  Spokane  which  will  speedily  come  to 
self-support.  For  our  work  throughout  the  eastern  part  of 
the  state,  Spokane  is  strategically  located.  What  can  sometimes 
be  done  is  illustrated  by  one  of  its  churches  organized  through 
the  help  of  the  Board,  the  entire  salary  of  whose  missionary 
was  paid  by  the  Board  the  first  year.  After  four  years  of  hard 
work  by  the  pastor,  by  unanimous  vote,  the  church  passed  to 
self-support,  and  the  same  year  more  than  doubled  the  ofifer- 
ing  to  the  Board  of  Home  Missions,  relieving  the  Board  of  a 
grant  of  three  hundred  dollars,  advanced  the  pastor's  salary 
two  hundred  dollars,  provided  three  hundred  dollars  for  music. 


24  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [^9"^- 

and  then  took  action  this  year  looking  toward  raising  four 
hundred  dollars  for  home  missions.  That  is  a  five-year  his- 
tory of  a  home  mission  plant  in  that  great  city. 

Wenatchee  Presbytery,  also  in  the  eastern  Washington 
country,  is  making  rapid  development.  Irrigation  schemes,  fer- 
tile soil,  land  well  adapted  to  fruit  growing  and  easy  access  to 
railroads  are  inducing  rapid  settlement.  Our  Church  is  seiz- 
ing its  opportunity  and  pushing  its  work  as  rapidly  as  possi- 
ble. Central  Washington  Presbytery,  which  includes  Yakima 
Valley  and  is  now  crossed  by  two  railroads,  affords  new  field 
for  work.  The  newly  organized  work  along  the  Columbia  River 
is  large  and  increasing  and  the  presbytery  in  this  territory  has 
its  hands  full  with  the  work  that  lies  before  it.  The  other  por- 
tions of  the  state  are  making  progress  and  are  eager  to  meet 
the  full  measure  of  their  responsibility. 

Washington  has  received  a  large  influx  of  population.  It  is 
estimated  now  to  number  more  than  a  million  people  and  we 
need  to  be  alert  for  the  coming  multitudes. 

In  general,  the  whole  outlook  in  the  Pacific  Coast  district  is 
encouraging.  There  is  a  spirit  of  independence  and  of  progress 
and  we  who  are  in  the  service  face  the  future  with  eager  antic- 
ipation. 

The  resume  of  the  past  year  in  the  Departments  of  Church 
and  Labor,  and  of  Immigration,  is  outlined  as  follows  by  the 
Rev.  Charles  Stelzle,  their  superintendent: 

DEPARTMENT  OF  CHURCH  AND  LABOR. 

The  department  having  long  since  passed  its  experimental 
stage,  it  has  settled  down  to  a  systematized  and  organized 
movement.  For  three  or  four  years  certain  lines  of  effort  have 
been  pushed  with  considerable  vigor.  Among  these  are  noon- 
day shop  meeting  campaigns  in  the  larger  cities ;  workingmen's 
mass  meetings  in  theaters  and  halls  on  every  Sunday  afternoon 
during  the  winter ;  a  labor  press  bureau  through  which  the 
department  speaks  every  week  to  ten  million  working-people 
through  a  syndicate  of  three  hundred  and  fifty  labor  papers ; 
the  exchange  of  fraternal  delegates  between  central  labor 
unions  and  ministers'  associations ;  labor  conferences  in  which 
employer  and  employee  are  gotten  together  for  the  purpose  of 
discussing  upon  a  Christian  basis  the  industrial  problem ;  the 
giving  of  series  of  lectures  in  theological  seminaries,  colleges 
and  universities  on  the  peculiar  problems  in  which  the  depart- 
ment is  interested,  and  the  establishment  of  a  clearing-house 
and  a  statistical  bureau  through  which  city  mission  work  is 
being  reduced  to  a  science. 

The  correspondence  course  in  applied  Christianity  has  added 
a  special  course  of  study  for  town  and  country  ministers  with

a  view  to  meeting  the  newer  conditions  which  tlic  clianges  in 
industrial  hfe  and  the  coming  of  the  immigrant  liave  hrouglit. 
The  observance  of  Labor  Sunday  is  becoming  of  increasing 
importance  both  to  the  Church  and  to  Labor. 

Tlie  superintendent  of  the  department  recently  spent  five 
weeks  in  leading  European  countries  studying  social  and 
religious  conditions  among  working-people  and  learning  how 
the  more  aggressive  Churches  abroad  are  meeting  these  prob- 
lems. At  their  own  request  he  met  with  special  committees, 
appointed  by  the  General  Assemblies  of  the  Presbyterian 
Church  in  Scotland,  England  and  Ireland  to  establish  depart- 
ments similar  to  the  one  inaugurated  in  our  own  Church,  and 
told  them  of  what  is  being  done  in  America  through  our 
Department  of  Church  and  Labor. 

The  Rev.  \A'arren  H.  Wilson,  Ph.  D.,  has  been  appointed 
assistant  superintendent  of  the  department.  Already  he  has 
demonstrated  his  capacity  for  the  work  to  which  he  has  been 
called.  In  the  many  new  features  which  are  to  be  developed 
during  the  coming  year,  he  will  have  an  important  part. 

IMMIGRATION  DEPARTMENT. 

The  immigration  problem  as  it  confronts  the  Church  is  of 
such  vast  importance  that  the  department  felt  justified,  during 
the  first  year  of  its  existence,  in  spending  much  time  in  a  very 
thorough  study  of  the  situation.  C)ur  survey  of  the  field  was 
comprehensive  enough  to  permit  us  to  set  up  a  program  which, 
we  believe,  will  permit  us  to  render  an  important  service  both 
to  the  Church  and  to  the  immigrant. 

As  New  York  City  presents  so  great  an  opportunity,  and  as 
New  York  Presbytery  has  entered  into  the  closest  relationship 
with  the  Board  with  regard  to  the  work  on  Manhattan  Island 
(the  superintendent  of  the  department  being  also  the  superin- 
tendent of  the  presbytery's  work  among  foreigners)  the  depart- 
ment made  a  careful  study  of  the  religious  and  sociological 
conditions  among  the  foreigners  on  Manhattan  Island.  This 
study  was  so  elaborate  and  comprehensive  that  it  is  conceded 
we  have  the  most  up-to-date  facts  obtainable.  Our  charts  and 
statistics  have  been  utilized  by  the  New  York  State  Comrnis- 
sion  for  the  Study  of  the  Immigrant  Problem,  by  the  Russell 
Sage  Foundation  Fund,  by  the  Young  Women's  Christian 
Association  workers,  by  the  workers  connected  with  the  Char- 
ity Organization  Society  of  New  York,  and  by  a  number  of 
university  men  who  have  come  to  us  for  material  in  connec- 
tion with  the  work  of  obtaining  their  degree  of  Doctor  of 
Philosophy. 

Our  office  is  prepared  to  make  a  similar  studv  for  any  city 
in  the  country  and  will  then  outline  a  plan  and  a  policy  with 


26  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [l909- 

reference  to  future  work  among  immigrants  as  it  has  done  for 
the  Presbytery  of  New  York.  A  number  of  ministers  and 
churches  have  requested  the  Department  of  Immigration  to 
investigate  their  fields,  the  result  of  which  investigation  has 
determined  the  character  of  the  work  in  their  communities. 

Four  important  conferences  were  held  during  the  year,  an 
entire  day  being  given  to  work  among  each  of  the  following 
nationalities :  Hungarian,  Italian,  Ruthenian  and  Jewish. 
Experts  in  work  among  these  peoples  were  invited  to  give  the 
department  the  benefit  of  their  experience,  and  they  in  turn 
received  suggestions  for  their  respective  fields. 

Our  work  among  the  Ruthenians  has  been  steadily  pushed 
forward.  A  number  of  days  were  spent  with  the  workers 
among  this  interesting  nationality  and,  after  carefully  consider- 
ing the  various  aspects  of  the  situation,  it  was  determined  to 
establish  a  Ruthenian  Presbyterian  Church.  "The  Brief  State- 
ment of  the  Westminster  Confession  of  Faith"  was  unani- 
mously accepted  and  committees  are  now  translating  into 
Ruthenian  the  Brief  Statement,  the  Shorter  Catechism  and  the 
Constitution  of  the  Presbyterian  Church.  A  weekly  paper  is 
also  being  published  by  the  Ruthenians.  The  Rev.  John 
Bodrug,  who  has  been  appointed  General  Missionary  among 
the  Ruthenians  in  the  United  States  of  America,  has  visited 
points  throughout  the  country,  assisting  in  the  organization  of 
a  number  of  important  enterprises.  These  people  are  ready 
for  a  movement  which  will  be  in  greater  harmony  with  their 
newly  acquired  American  spirit  and  patriotism  than  is  the 
Church  of  the  fatherland.  The  opportunity  is  presented  to  us 
to  give  them  such  a  Church. 

The  last  General  Assembly  commissioned  the  Board  of 
Home  Missions  to  inaugurate  a  national  work  for  the  evangel- 
ization of  the  Jews.  Because  of  peculiar  difficulties  it  was  felt 
that,  before  the  Board  should  attempt  to  outline  a  program  for 
the  Church,  it  was  best  to  become  familiar  with  the  entire 
problem.  This  was  done  through  a  personal  visit  to  and  a  study 
of  the  most  successful  Jewish  enterprises  in  Europe  and  in 
America,  and  the  Board  is  now  ready  to  inaugurate  the  work, 
which  will  be  conducted  by  the  Rev.  Louis  Meyer,  associate 
editor  of  the  Missionary  Review.  Mr.  Meyer's  experience  in 
such  work  for  a  number  of  years  gives  good  promise  of  suc- 
cess. During  the  coming  summer  he  will  give  his  time  to  pre- 
senting the  cause  of  Jewish  evangelization  to  churches  and 
summer  conventions  and  in  the  fall  will  inaugurate  local  work 
in  some  favorable  center.  The  support  for  this  must  come 
from  people  interested  in  it  as  a  special  fund.  As  soon  as  the 
Church  is  ready  to  support  the  Board  in  this  aspect  of  its  work, 
the  Department  of  Immigration  will  push  with  vigor  the 
national  movements  among  the  Jews,  the  Ruthenians.  the  Hun-

garians  and  the  Italians,  which  have  already  been  set  up  and 
which  simply  await  the  funds  for  their  enlargement.  Other 
nationalities  will  also  be  provided  for  as  opportunity  offers. 

A  series  of  immigration  studies  with  reference  to  these 
nationalities  are  being  prepared  and  a  number  of  leaflets  have 
been  translated  into  foreign  languages  for  general  distribution. 

The  Board  spent,  during  the  past  year,  $25,098.50  for  its 
work  in  this  department,  and  missionaries  have  been  commis- 
sioned to  carry  on  work  in  many  languages  and  dialects,  but  in 
most  cases  the  support  given  these  men  has  been  totally  inade- 
quate to  meet  the  situation. 

INDIAN  DEPARTMENT. 

In  accordance  with  the  action  of  the  last  General  Assembly, 
the  Board  on  November  12th,  1908,  constituted  the  Depart- 
ment of  Indian  Missions,  and  elected  as  superintendent  the 
Rev.  Thomas  Clinton  Moffett  who  had  proved  his  fitness  for 
this  position  by  his  labors  during  the  two  preceding  years  as 
the  Board's  special  representative  in  behalf  of  the  Indians. 
We  submit  herewith  his  report  of  the  Indian  Department : 

The  increasing  interest  manifested  in  the  Indians  by  the 
Government,  and  the  new  policy  which  is  being  carried  into 
effect  in  dealing  with  them,  is  matched  by  a  quickening  within 
the  Church  and  larger  efforts  for  their  evangelization  and 
Christian  nurture.  The  Board  has  adopted  a  plan  for  develop- 
ing Indian  work  which  is  more  systematic,  farsighted,  and 
promising  of  larger  results.  The  authority  given  by  the 
Assembly  to  the  Board  to  make  appropriations  directly  for  the 
Indian  missions  in  the  different  districts,  insures  a  better  pro- 
portioned development  and  greater  efficiency.  The  decision  as 
to  the  appropriations  for  the  various  tribes,  and  the  general 
conduct  of  the  work,  have  been  undertaken  by  the  Board  after 
consultation  with  home  mission  committees,  and  the  location 
of  missionaries  has  still  remained  in  the  hands  of  the  presby- 
teries. 

The  Indians  number  almost  an  even  three  hundred  thousand 
according  to  the  statistics  of  the  Government,  with  an  addi- 
tional thirty-three  thousand  of  the  natives  of  Alaska,  including 
Esquimos.  Our  missions  and  schools,  not  including  those 
among  the  Alaskans,  are  located  in  sixteen  states,  and  minister 
to  forty-three  tribal  divisions.  The  significance  and  wide  influ- 
ence of  this  work  is  not  indicated  by  figures,  as  the  Indians  are 
slow  to  leave  their  old  rites  and  break  with  native  customs 
and  religious  ceremonies,  even  when  the  Christian  faith  is  the 
controlling  force  in  their  communities.  Yet  one  hundred  and 
one  organized  churches  and  thirty-seven  mission  stations  are 
manned  by  sixty-three  ordained  ministers  and  fifty-five  helpers 


28  ANNUAL    REPOUT    OF    THE  [  1909- 

and  interpreters  under  commission  of  the  Board.  In  these 
organized  congregations  there  are  reported  6,232  communi- 
cants, and  5,600  Sabbath-school  members.  This  represents  a 
constituency  estimated  at  sixteen  thousand  adherents. 

The  mission  schools  for  the  Indians  maintained  by  the 
Woman's  Board  are  a  most  important  factor,  especially  for  the 
training  of  native  workers.  Only  twelve  of  these  schools  are 
now  carried  on,  with  sixty-four  teachers  and  helpers,  and  hav- 
ing a  total  enrolment  of  six  hundred  and  seventy-one  pupils. 
A.  more  advanced  course  of  instruction,  with  emphasis  upon 
Bible  training  and  Christian  doctrine  in  systematic  form,  is 
greatly  needed  for  the  equipping  of  Indian  ministers  and  evan- 
gelists to  supply  the  native  churches  and  instruct  the  untutored 
tribes  to  whom  the  gospel  has  never  been  proclaimed. 

Five  territorial  divisions  have  been  designated  with  a  view 
to  greater  efficiency  of  administration  and  for  an  advance  in 
the  work  to  broader  scope,  larger  efiforts  for  neglected  tribes, 
and  increasing  self-dependence  in  financial  support.  The  con- 
ditions and  progress  in  the  fields  may  be  considered  under  five 
districts. 

THE    FAR    NORTH-WEST. 
(Including  Northern  California,  Oregon,  Washington,  Idaho, Utah  and  Wyoming.) 

For  the  ten  thousand  scattered  Indians  of  California  dwell- 
ing north  of  Tehatchapi  Pass,  most  of  them  landless  and  home- 
less, a  strong  plea  has  gone  up  during  the  past  year.  Mr. 
Otto  Kelsey  has  carried  on  investigations  for  the  Government 
which  have  revealed  a  deplorable  state  of  poverty  and  neglect 
among  these  bands  and  tribes  among  the  forests  and  back 
from  the  coast.  The  Rev.  George  L.  Spining,  D.  D.,  has 
earnestly  espoused  their  cause,  and  both  in  California  and  in 
the  eastern  states  has  aroused  public  sentiment  for  the  reliev- 
ing of  their  distress.  Missions  are  very  inadequately  supplied, 
and  our  own  Church  supports  only  three  women  field  workers 
among  the  Hoopa,  Digger  and  Shasta  tribes.  Ordained  minis- 
ters and  evangelists  are  needed  in  connection  with  the  labors 
of  these  devoted  Bible  readers  and  field  matrons.  The  newest 
church  is  that  of  Chico,  where  thirty-one  Indians  were  enrolled 
as  charter  members.  If  religious  need  and  destitution  have 
any  appeal  to  Christians  of  our  country,  these  neglected  thou- 
sands of  California  Indians  certainly  afTord  opportunity  for 
missionary  effort  and  evangelization  which  will  not  long  be 
unimproved. 

The  work  among  the  Spokane  and  Puyallun  Indians  has 
been  quickened  by  the  coming  of  the  Rev.  Edward  A.  Renich 
with  energy  and  devotion.  A  recent  graduate  of  Auburn 
Theological    Seminary,    he   purposes    earnest    and    permanent

labors  for  these  tribes.  The  Umatilla  Reservation  under  the 
care  of  the  Rev.  James  M.  Cornelison  and  of  the  native  pastor, 
the  Rev.  Edward  J.  Connor,  exemplities  the  progressive  and 
influential  type  of  mission,  where  the  Church  is  a  vital  power. 
The  annual  convention  or  encampment  is  a  series  of  evan- 
gelistic services  of  deepest  interest  and  fruitage.  The  mission- 
aries from  this  field  attended  the  Zayante  Conference  at  Mt. 
Hermon,  California,  last  summer  and  were  leaders  in  counsel 
in  that  important  gathering. 

The  Nez  Perces  missions  have  again  set  the  example  of 
enlisting  the  recruits  of  the  Church  as  recruiters  for  the  ranks, 
by  sending  out  evangelists  and  native  helpers  to  carry  the  gos- 
pel to  the  tribes.  Every  summer  it  has  been  the  custom  for  a 
little  band  of  Nez  Perce  pastors  and  students  to  go  over  the 
mountains  and  through  the  forests  for  the  winning  of  heathen 
Indians  to  Christ.  A  campaign  was  planned  this  year,  extend- 
ing into  several  states,  and  the  Rev.  James  Hayes  visited  a 
number  of  new  stations,  and  also  attended  the  Zayante  Confer- 
ence. 

The  return  of  Mr.  and  Mrs.  H.  M.  Foster  to  the  Shevwits 
at  Shem,  Utah,  and  the  plans  of  the  Woman's  Board  to  place 
a  field  matron  among  the  Shoshones  at  Duck  Valley  on  the 
borders  of  Utah  and  Nevada,  are  gratifying  provisions  for 
these  needy  people  whom  the  Nez  Perce  pastors  first  evange- 
lized. 

The  Rev.  James  Dickson  labors  faithfully  at  Fort  Hall, 
Idaho,  among  the  Bannocks,  and  the  field  so  long  cared  for  by 
Miss  A.  J.  Frost,  still  unable  to  return  on  account  of  sickness, 
is  in  good  hands.  As  Mr.  Dickson  is  a  Nez  Perce,  the  inter- 
esting instance  is  here  shown  of  an  Indian  preaching  to  people 
of  his  own  race  through  an  interpreter,^the  two  tribes  speak- 
ing entirely  dififerent  languages. 

The  work  among  the  Arapahoes  of  Wyoming  has  been  car- 
ried on  in  connection  with  the  preaching  for  the  white  popula- 
tion under  the  care  of  the  Rev.  Charles  T.  McCampbell,  and  a 
missionary  for  this  Indian  field  is  now  urgently  needed. 

THE    MIDDLE    NORTH-WEST. 
(Including  the  Dakotas,  Montana,  Wisconsin,  Minnesota  and  Nebraska.") 

The  annual  convention  of  the  representatives  of  the  Con- 
gregational and  Presbyterian  missions  is  the  great  event  of  the 
year  among  the  Sioux,  and  the  gathering  at  Standing  Rock, 
South  Dakota,  in  August  of  this  year  was  the  high-water  mark 
of  interest.  About  four  thousand  Indians  were  present,  and 
for  six  days  the  convention  continued  its  sessions  in  the  Dakota 
tongue.  The  Rev.  Isaac  Renville  narrated  the  early  efiforts 
made  to  introduce  Christianity  among  these  Indians  west  of 


30  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [19091. 

the  Missouri  River,  when  he  was  forbidden  to  cross  the  stream- 
to  preach  to  these  heathen  who  now — as  elders  and  members 
of  the  church — gathered  in  such  numbers  to  testify  their  faith. 
Progress  is  being  made  each  year  in  the  work  among  the  Sioux, 
and  it  is  anticipated  that  some  larger  missionary  work  for  other 
tribes  can  soon  be  undertaken  by  the  Dakota  converts  and- 
evangelists. 

On  the  Pine  Ridge  Reservation  the  work  is  difficult,  and' 
splendid  service  has  been  rendered  by  the  missionary  and  his- 
native  helpers.  The  Young  Men's  Christian  Association  has- 
been  established  and  is  proving  a  valuable  aid.  Small  log  build- 
ings for  the  use  of  the  Associations  are  erected  adjoining  the 
house  of  worship,  and  the  long  winter  evenings  find  the  young 
men  enjoying  Christian  companionship  and  literary  and  social' 
entertainment  under  the  Association's  auspices. 

The  Sioux  missions  in  Montana  have  been  blessed  during  the 
year  under  the  ministry  of  the  Rev.  E.  J.  Lindsey  and  his- 
native  helpers.  The  allotment  of  land,  the  opening  of  the  res- 
ervation and  the  setting  apart  of  the  town  site  of  Poplar  is  of 
special  import  as  our  mission  work  has  to  be  readjusted  to 
these  changed  conditions. 

The  Dakota  missions  under  the  general  direction  of  the  Rev. 
John  Williamson,  D.  D.,  comprise  thirty-one  organized 
churches  under  the  care  of  twenty-one  pastors  and  evangelists, 
with  a  communicant  membership  of  1,565.  It  is  a  gratifying, 
fruitage  of  the  labors  of  many  years  among  these  Indians  that 
some  five  thousand  Sioux  are  now  Presbyterian  adherents.  The 
Board  expends  annually  between  seven  and  eight  thousand  dol- 
lars upon  salaries  and  the  maintenance  of  buildings  in  this 
Dakota  work. 

The  field  matrons  among  the  Kickapoo  and  the  Sac  Indians 
have  found  the  work  difficult  and  trying,  unaided  by  minis- 
terial oversight  or  counsel,  and  from  this  direction,  as  well 
as  from  other  fields,  has  been  received  the  request  for  pas- 
toral care  and  preaching  services. 

The  Omaha  mission,  eighty  miles  north  of  Omaha,  is  well 
equipped  since  the  coming  of  the  Rev.  George  A.  Beith  and 
Mrs.  Beith,  who,  with  the  assistance  of  Dr.  Susan  La  Flesche 
Picotte,  and  Miss  Sarah  H.  Chapin,  the  field  matron,  are  plac- 
ing this  work  upon  a  better  basis  and  greater  efficiency. 
Recently  the  attendance  upon  services  has  improved,  and  some 
of  the  Indians  who  had  been  led  into  the  strange  rites  of  the 
"mescal  cult"  appear  to  be  returning  to  the  true  faith,  and  to 
their  Christian  duties. 

OKLAHOMA  AND  KANSAS. 

Our  missions  to  the  Cherokees  and  Choctaws  were  influential 
and  numerous  decades  ago.    The  shifting  relations  of  the  civi- 


I9O9.J  BOARD    OF    HOME    MISSIONS.  3I 

lized  tribes,  the  allotting  of  lands,  the  alienation  of  many 
of  the  full-bloods  and  their  dissatisfaction  with  the  white  man's 
rule,  have  created  an  anomalous  condition  resulting  in  injury 
and  loss  to  missionary  effort.  The  past  year  has  given  oppor- 
tunity to  evolve  a  better  plan  of  administering  this  work,  and 
there  is  hope  for  the  recovery  of  the  fields,  and  a  substantial 
undertaking  for  the  hundred  thousand  Indians  of  the  state. 
The  Rev.  A.  B.  Johnson  has  been  reinstated  among  his  beloved 
Choctaws,  and  with  his  colaborers  is  bringing  better  conditions. 
A  number  of  congregations  which  were  under  the  Cumberland 
General  Assembly  are  suffering  for  lack  of  oversight  and 
financial  aid.  It  is  hoped  that  with  interest  and  care  all  may 
be  included  in  the  reunited  Church. 

The  Cherokee  work  is  dependent  upon  the  labors  of  the 
teachers  under  the  Woman's  Board,  at  Dwight,  Elm  Springs, 
and  Park  Hill  schools.  Over  five  thousand  full-blood  Chero- 
kees — Indians  for  whom  we  have  special  responsibility — live 
apart  in  communities  separate  from  the  Whites,  and  no  Pres- 
byterian preaching  is  provided  for  them.  A  move  has  been 
made  to  supply  this  need  in  the  securing  of  Mr.  A.  S.  Thorn- 
ton as  printer  and  assistant  to  the  Rev.  Frederick  L.  Schaub, 
superintendent  of  "Old  Dwight".  Litetature  is  being  prepared 
for  distribution  among  these  Indians,  who  are  familiar  with 
the  Cherokee  syllabary,  and  the  placing  of  a  missionary  among 
these  communities  as  soon  as  his  salary  can  be  provided  has 
been  approved. 

The  recent  uprising  and  outlawry  of  the  Creek  Indians  and 
mixed-bloods,  under  the  leadership  of  Crazy  Snake,  has 
revealed  the  urgent  need  of  missionary  work.  Our  Creek  and 
Seminole  missions  include  six  congregations  with  a  member- 
ship of  one  hundred  and  forty-three,  and  Sabbath-school  enrol- 
ment of  one  hundred  and  fifteen.  The  Snake  band  has  been 
uncared  for  by  any  religious  body;  and  the  cost  to  the  Gov- 
ernment and  the  State  in  the  loss  of  lives  and  property,  with 
the  insecurity  of  community  and  domestic  peace,  might  have 
been  saved  by  Christian  missions  and  counsels  to  these  dis- 
appointed and  suffering  Indians. 

The  Mary  Gregory  Memorial  School  at  Anadarko  continues 
its  excellent  service  for  pupils  of  five  tribes.  The  organization 
of  a  church  in  the  school  has  proven  advantageous,  and  the 
superintendent,  the  Rev.  S.  V.  Fait,  is  a  true  pastor  to  his  con- 
gregation. 

THE   SOUTHWEST. 
(Including  Colorado,  New  Mexico,  Arizona  and  Southern  California.) 

The  record  of  the  labors  of  our  ten  ordained  missionaries 
in  this  district  has  been  mainly  of  patient,  plodding  work,  lay- 
ing foundations  and  building  near  the  sub-structure,  as  heath- 


T^2  AXXl'AL     RKI'OKT     OK     IJIi;  [  I909- 

enism  and  superstition  of  ages  still  hold  sway.  The  Nava- 
jos,  Mohaves,  the  Lagimas,  Camp  McDowell  Apaches,  Papa- 
gos,  and  Southern  Utes  represent  primitive  conditions  not  as 
yet  to  any  large  degree  elevated  to  the  standards  of  Christi- 
anity. The  slow  moving  of  this  apparently  inert  mass  has  been 
more  evident  in  recent  years.  The  power  of  the  Indian  Sha- 
man, the  respect  for  the  medicine-rites,  and  the  religious  super- 
stitions and  fears  are  dissolving,  as  the  purer  faith  and  the 
freedom  of  Christian  privilege  have  been  proclaimed. 

Among  the  Pimas  and  JNIaricopas,  Christianity  is  dominant. 
The  Rev.  Charles  H.  Cook,  D.  D.,  and  his  associates  in  this 
service  have  enjoyed  another  year  of  privilege, — not  with  large 
ingatherings,  but  with  growth  in  Christian  character  and  intel- 
ligence among  the  seven  congregations  to  which  they  minister. 
The  annual  camp-meeting  is  a  source  of  quickening  as  well  as 
of  profit  and  pleasure. 

The  Rev.  Clarence  H.  Ellis,  W.  D.,  has  served  congrega- 
tions speaking  three  different  languages,  Pima,  Maricopa  and 
Mohave ;  in  his  ministry  to  both  the  bodies  and  souls  of  his 
parishioners,  and  in  his  travels  of  many  miles  over  the  reser- 
vations, his  labors  could  scarcely  be  paralleled  for  variety. 

The  Papago  mission  has  been  well  equipped  with  the  beauti- 
ful chapel  and  manse,  to  which  has  now  been  added  the  Will- 
iam H.  Elliott  Home,  a  memorial  gift  for  the  use  of  the  native 
helper.  Decided  improvement  in  the  village  life  of  these 
Indians  has  been  noted  since  the  Rev.  and  Mrs.  Frazier  S. 
Herndon  came  among  them.  The  membership  has  been  recently 
increased  following  special  services  at  which  Dr.  Cook  and 
Evangelist  Dixon  preached. 

The  medical  missionary  to  the  Navajos  at  Ganado,  James  D. 
Kennedy,  M.  D.,  has  been  greatly  encouraged  as  the  opportu- 
nities have  opened  far  beyond  expectations  among  the  Indians 
of  a  tribe  held  back  b}'  superstitions  and  the  power  of  the  med- 
icine men.  ]\Iany  are  seeking  his  medical  and  surgical  aid,  and 
a  hospital  appears  indispensable.  Among  these  Indians  four 
stations  are  now  established,  each  with  its  resident  mission- 
ary, and  the  difificult  task  of  acquiring  the  language  is  engag- 
ing the  best  efforts  of  all  on  the  field.  The  latest  addition  to 
this  faithful  company  is  the  Rev.  George  T.  Xeedels,  who 
came  to  Jewett,  New  Mexico,  in  February  and  enters  upon 
his  difficult  work  with  earnest  purpose. 

The  attractive  stone  chapel  at  the  Ganado  mission  was  com- 
pleted in  mid-winter,  so  that  Christmas  service  could  be  held 
in  this  the  first  Protestant  house  of  worship  erected  for  this 
large  tribe  of  twenty-eight  thousand  Indians.  Many  friends 
of  the  work  have  contributed  generously  to  this  chapel. 

At  the  Mohave  mission,  a  new  manse  was  completed  and

occupied  ciuring  tlic  winter,  anti  the  Rev.  Alfred  C.  and  Mrs. 
Edgar  have  been  gladdened  by  encouragements  in  a  work  as 
difficult  and  trying  as  any  in  America.  The  Mohaves  will  yet 
be  won  from  their  old  ways  and  degradation,  and  patience  will 
have  its  reward  in  trophies  of  redemption  from  this  long 
neglected  and  most  needy  tribe  of  Indians. 

The  pastor-evangelist,  the  Rev.  F.  C.  Reid,  has  rendered 
important  service  in  relation  to  Arizona  Indian  missions,  and 
throughout  the  two  territories  of  the  Southwest  the  Rev.  John 
R.  Class,  D.  D.,  the  synodical  missionary,  has  been  alert  to  the 
interests  of  the  Indian  work,  and  has  labored  devotedly. 

TliE    E.-VST. 

New  York  State  includes  all  of  the  Indians  east  of  the  Mis- 
sissippi River  for  whom  our  Church  is  at  work,  and  among 
four  of  the  divisions  of  the  Iroquois  we  have  members  who  are 
a  credit, — earnest,  true  Christians.  One  thousand  of  these 
Seneca,  Cayuga,  Onondaga  and  Tuscarora  Indians  are  Pres- 
byterian adherents.  The  Rev.  Morton  F.  Trippe,  D.  D.,  has 
completed  twenty-eight  years  of  service  on  these  mission  fields, 
and  continues  his  long  trips  over  four  reservations.  His  care 
of  eight  .congregations  and  preaching  stations  evidences  his 
consecration  and  unflagging  interest.  During  the  year  the  Rev. 
J.  Emory  Fisher  received  the  testimony  of  the  affection  and 
esteem  in  which  lie  is  held  by  the  Indians  on  the  Cattaraugus 
Reservation,  in  the  honors  which  were  accorded  him  in  the 
celebrating  of  his  seventieth  birthday. 

Increasing  correspondence  and  multiplying  requests  for 
information  from  friends  of  the  Indian  work  and  from  the 
fields  have  made  heavy  demands  upon  the  time  spent  by  the 
superintendent  at  the  office.  Addresses  have  been  given  before 
many  congregations,  missionary  societies  and  clubs,  with  a 
manifest  interest  in  the  Indian  missions  of  the  Board,  and  with 
substantial  responses  in  gifts  for  special  objects.  About  ten 
thousand  dollars  is  now  provided  in  special  gifts  for  the  sal- 
aries of  missionaries  and  native  helpers. 

Institutes  and  district  conventions  of  missionaries  and 
friends  of  the  Indian  are  proving  a  valuable  feature  in  develop- 
ing interest  in  this  work,  and  the  department  is  fostering  these 
helpful  gatherings  for  counsel  and  inspiration.  During  the 
year  the  Zayante  Conference  at  Mt.  Hermon,  California;  the 
Southwest  Indian  Conference  at  Flagstaff,  Arizona ;  the 
Dakota  Annual  Convention  at  Standing  Rock ;  the  Umatilla 
Conference  in  Oregon,  and  the  mission  encampments  among 
the  Pimas  in  Arizona ;  the  Nez  Perces  in  Idaho,  and  the  Pine 
Ridge  Sioux  in  South  Dakota  have  been  helpful  and  gratifying 
in  results. 


34  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [l909- 

ALASKA, 

The  work  at  Saxman  is  essentially  among  the  natives.  It  is 
suitable  that  the  leader  should  be  the  Rev.  Edward  Marsden, 
himself  a  native  and  therefore  the  better  able  to  understand  his 
people.  In  the  early  spring,  when  the  fishing  interests  take  the 
people  from  their  homes,  Mr.  Marsden  follows  them  with  his 
launch,  especially  equipped  and  given  to  him  for  this  purpose. 

Among  the  fields  visited  are  Port  Stewart,  Cape  Camaano, 
Loring,  Ketchikan  and  Kasaan.  At  the  first  of  these  there  was 
in  May  and  June  a  gathering  of  five  hundred,  of  chiefly  Tsimp- 
shean,  Thlinget  and  Hydah  tribes,  together  with  some  white 
traders  and  fishermen,  some  Japanese  and  a  few  .of  other  races. 
Port  Stewart  is  thirty-eight  miles  to  the  north  of  Saxman. 
Cape  Camaano  is  twenty  miles  to  the  northwest  of  Saxman — 
also  a  fishing  camp  with  a  population  in  June  of  two  hundred. 
Loring  is  twenty-four  miles  north  of  Saxman  and  has  the 
largest  salmon  cannery  and  hatchery  in  that  part  of  Alaska. 
From  the  first  of  June  until  the  middle  of  October  the  popula- 
tion does  not  fall  below  three  hundred  and  fifty,  including  men 
of  six  nationalities. 

Last  spring  the  Presbytery  of  Alaska  urged  upon  the  Board 
the  placing  of  a  separate  missionary  at  Ketchikan,  but  it  has 
seemed  wise  to  leave  that  as  an  outpost  of  Mr.  Marsden's  field. 

The  work  at  Kasaan  was  continued  under  Mr.  Marsden's 
supervision  with  the  assistance  of  Mr.  Henry  Haldane,  who 
was  appointed  for  that  service  in  January,  1908.  The  special 
event  of  the  year  has  been  the  completing  of  a  house  of  wor- 
ship here  for  the  Hydah  people.  Mr.  Marsden  spent  several 
days  with  them  and  by  example  and  instruction  led  them  in  the 
building  of  the  chapel.  They  all  worked  loyally,  and  the  dedi- 
cation of  the  completed  building  the  first  Sabbath  of  December, 
free  from  indebtedness,  was  a  time  of  rejoicing.  Some  equip- 
ment which  we  would  count  essential  in  churches  in  the  states 
was  lacking.  Nevertheless  the  house  of  God  had  been  built 
and  the  people  had  done  it  themselves.  Their  leader  says :  "I 
like  to  see  these  people  learn  to  enjoy  themselves  in  a  good 
way.  Before  that  they  used  to  like  dancing  and  they  used  to 
go  fishing  on  Sunday,  and  they  open  their  stores  on  Sunday. 
Now  they  all  quit  that." 

As  an  illustration  of  how  the  natives  appreciate  the  oppor- 
tunities that  present  themselves  on  any  missionary  field,  note 
the  following  division  of  Mr.  Haldane's  time :  "On  Monday 
my  own  study  time :  on  Tuesday  singing  practice ;  on  Wednes- 
day Qnristian  Endeavor  prayer-meeting;  on  Thursday  choir 
practice :  on  Friday  magic  lantern  service ;  on  Saturday  my 
own  study  time :  on  Sunday  we  have  our  services." 

And  so,  under  the  direction  of  the  more  experienced  and 


1909.]  BOARD    OF    HOME    MISSIONS.  35 

better  trained  missionaries,  one  after  another  the  Alaskan 
Christians  are  learning  to  lead  their  own  people  into  paths  of 
truth  and  light. 

At  Klawock  the  Rev.  David  Waggoner  remains  in  charge, 
vi^ith  the  oversight  of  the  three  out-stations  of  Howkan,  Klin- 
quan  and  Shakan.  As  before,  he  is  assisted  at  these  stations 
by  native  helpers, — the  Messrs.  Samuel  G.  Davis,  John  Brown 
and  William  Benson.  We  regret  that  up  to  the  hour  of  going 
to  press  the  report  of  the  year's  work  has  not  been  received. 

At  Wrangell  the  Rev.  and  Mrs.  J.  S.  Clark  have  continued 
their  enthusiastic  and  self-sacrificing  work  in  behalf  of  both 
Americans  and  natives.  Although  needing  a  vacation  and 
given  leave  of  absence  from  the  field,  their  appreciation  of  the 
need  held  them  at  their  post  that  the  winter  might  not  lack  in 
the  special  exercises  that  mean  there  even  more  than  to 
churches  in  the  states.  In  connection  with  the  Christmas  ser- 
vices as  well  as  in  preparation  for  them  the  work  was  very 
heavy,  the  missionary  having  eighty  meetings  in  thirty  days. 
Nevertheless  it  paid,  and  this  is  the  result :  "The  Indians  have 
cast  aside  all  their  old  customs  and  declare  now  that  they  are 
fully  for  the  Lord."  Yet  "they  are  weak  and  easily  upset. 
The  elders  and  the  deacons  need  the  prayers  of  God's  people." 

The  result  of  the  special  services  following  the  first  of  Janu- 
ary was  the  organization  of  the  First  (native)  Church  with 
seven  elders  and  four  deacons,  "who  are  taking  hold  beauti- 
fully." 

Pastoral  work  here  as  elsewhere  in  Alaska  is  peculiarly  try- 
ing because  the  people  scatter  to  their  fishing  camps  at  regular 
intervals. 

In  addition  to  the  newly  organized  Indian  church  there  is 
the  white  church,  organized  years  ago.  Only  a  few  of  the 
members  now  live  at  Wrangell,  some  of  them  having  gone  to 
different  parts  of  Alaska  seeking  employment ;  but  there  is  a 
Sabbath  school  with  good  attendance,  and  so  far  as  the  white 
population  is  concerned  the  hope  of  the  church  is  in  it. 

With  Wrangell  has  been  associated  the  work  at  Petersburg, 
and  Mr,  Clark  has  been  assisted  by  the  native  helper,  William 
Wells,  as  last  year. 

The  work  at  Juneau  in  both  our  churches  has  been  prospered 
although  the  year  has  not  been  without  its  problems.  Mr.  Hol- 
ford  began  the  year  in  charge  of  the  Northern  Light  (white) 
Church  but  was  obliged  to  be  away  for  some  time  because  of 
the  serious  condition  of  his  eyes.  During  his  absence  the  work 
was  carried  by  the  Rev.  L.  F.  Jones,  for  many  years  the  pastor 
of  our  Indian  church  in  Juneau  and  whose  field  includes  also 
the  Indian  work  at  Douglas,  three  miles  distant. 

Among  the  natives  there  was  the  oft-repeated  winter  strug- 


36  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [^9^9' 

gle  to  secure  permission  to  indulge  in  doubtful  forms  of  amuse- 
ment, rendered  all  the  more  dangerous  by  the  presence  of 
vicious  white  men.  Through  the  firmness  and  tactfulness  of 
our  missionary,  right  finally  prevailed,  the  attendance  at  the 
services  has  been  good  and  there  is  evidence  of  advance  in  the 
Christian  life.  Although  it  is  said  that  there  are  no  more  diffi- 
cult fields  in  all  Alaska  than  Douglas  and  Juneau,  yet  results 
are  manifest  and  the  improvement  has  been  noted  not  merely 
in  church  life,  but  in  home  life  as  v^ell.  In  Juneau  peace  and 
concord  prevail  and  at  Douglas  contention  and  drunkenness 
have  been  much  lessened. 

At  Hoonah  the  year  opened  with  the  Rev.  M.  J.  Caldwell 
on  the  field.  He  was  followed  by  the  Rev.  and  Mrs.  A.  J. 
Whipkey,  who  came  from  Teller  and  Council  on  the  western 
coast  of  Alaska,  where  Mr.  Whipkey  had  been  laboring  under 
the  Board  for  three  years.  Because  of  the  custom  of  the 
natives  to  scatter  for  the  fishing  in  the  summer,  it  was  not 
possible  for  the  work  to  start  in  its  full  strength  until  autumn. 

The  past  winter  witnessed  a  sad  lapse  on  the  part  of  the 
native  Christians  here,  as  the  temptations  of  old  customs  was 
too  strong  to  be  resisted  and  a  whole  month  was  spent  in  an 
old-time  potlatch  with  its  degrading  orgies.  Yet  light  has  fol- 
lowed darkness  and  there  has  been  evidence  of  renewed  interest 
in  church  services  and  in  Christian  living. 

The  following  from  one  of  the  missionary's  reports  shows 
the  practical  program  by  which  he  and  his  wife  are  winning 
the  whole  population  of  the  village  to  the  church: 

"To-night  we  expect  to  entertain  in  our  home  about  thirty 
of  the  old  people  of  the  town.  Then  to-morrow  Mrs.  Whipkey 
is  expecting  some  twenty  girls.  Wednesday  we  have  our 
prayer-meeting.  Thursday  evening  we  will  entertain  the 
young  men  of  the  town,  and  Friday  evening  some  of  the  young 
married  people.  All  this  means  work,  not  only  to  get  ready 
for  them  but  cleaning  up  after  they  are  gone.  These  natives 
have  nothing  to  do  in  the  winter  time  and  no  entertainment  of 
any  kind  that  is  helpful.  We  hope  to  get  them  interested  in  the 
church  by  taking  an  interest  in  their  social  life." 

To  the  -  two  white  churches — white  and  native — at  Sitka 
there  went  last  summer  the  Rev.  and  Mrs.  Eugene  E.  Brom- 
ley, their  marriage  having  occurred  after  Mr.  Bromley's  grad- 
uation from  McCormick  Theological  Seminary  in  May.  Well 
recommended  for  the  work,  they  have  taken  hold  with  enthu- 
siasm and  are  proving  helpful  missionaries.  A  practical  proof 
of  their  ministry  is  in  the  fact  that  the  amount  locally  sub- 
scribed for  the  minister's  salary  has  considerably  exceeded  the 
amount  suggested.  The  average  attendance  has  increased  in 
the  native  church    from   a   little   more  than  one  hundred   to 


lyOQ.]  BOARD    OF    HOME    MISSIONS.  37 

almost  two  hundred,  showing  that  tlie  acquaintance  resulting 
from  the  added  months'  service  is  proving  a  factor  of  added 
power.  Here  as  in  some  other  places  in  Alaska  illicit  sale  of 
intoxicating  liquors  has  proved  a  temptation  too  strong  for 
some  of  our  native  members.  Here,  however,  the  arm  of  the 
law  was  successfully  invoked  and  the  accused  saloon  keeper 
was  heavily  fined.     It  is  hoped  the  offense  will  not  be  repeated. 

The  Industrial  and  Training  School  here  under  the  Wom- 
an's Board  is  doing  excellent  service  and  fuller  mention  is 
made  of  it  in  the  Woman's  Board  report  on  a  later  page. 

At  Haines  the  Rev.  and  Mrs.  A.  F.  ]McLean  are  upon  the 
field  as  heretofore,  in  constant  labors  for  the  natives  in  both 
church  and  hospital.  Having  no  launch  to  follow  the  natives 
who  go  from  Haines,  as  from  elsewhere  in  Alaska,  on  their 
summer  fishing  expeditions,  Mr.  McLean  last  summer  kept  the 
church  open  for  Sabbath  morning  and  evening  services,  invit- 
ing the  people  to  return  to  Haines  Saturday  evening.  This 
suggestion  was  largely  followed,  the  attendance  at  Haines 
being  better  than  Mr.  McLean  had  ever  been  able  to  gather 
at  any  of  the  fishing  camps  in  other  years.  The  development 
of  government  and  private  industries  in  the  region  of  Haines 
brought  last  summer  to  that  section  a  large  number  of  white 
men.  This  new  element  was  an  incentive  to  the  preaching  of 
the  gospel  in  English  at  the  Sunday  evening  services,  which 
were  well  attended. 

One  of  the  events  of  the  summer  on  this  field  was  the  instal- 
lation of  a  gasoline  lighting  plant  in  the  church,  the  congrega- 
tion meeting  the  expense  out  of  their  evening  offerings. 

The  difficulty  of  passing  on  spiritual  truths  by  means  of  an 
interpreter,  handicapped  both  by  the  poverty  of  the  native 
tongue  and  his  own  lack  of  spiritual  experience,  is  one  of  the 
problems  which  Mr.  McLean  has  to  face.  In  order  to  be  sure 
that  his  talks  to  the  people  are  understood  he  has  allowed 
them  to  speak  when  he  has  finished  preaching,  the  interpreter 
telling  him  what  the  people  say. 

Mr.  McLean  writes : 

"The  year  has  been  full  of  encouragement  mingled  with  dis- 
couragements, and  yet  when  we  knpw  that  the  forces  of  evil 
are  strong  and  the  people  with  whom  we  labor  are  weak,  we 
must  not  lose  hope,  but  labor  all  the  harder.  The  attendance 
at  all  the  services  this  year  has  been  very  encouraging  and  those 
who  have  been  constant  in  their  Christian  life  are  stronger 
in  their  faith  than  a  year  ago.  Drunkenness  and  the  vicious 
white  men  are  the  worst  enemies  of  our  people,  and  the  sooner 
they  learn  to  realize  this  fact  the  sooner  they  will  advance. 

"The  hospital  has  been  a  great  blessing  the  past  year  and 
has  relieved  much  sufifering  and  opened  many  opportunities 
to  the  hearts  of  the  people." 


38  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [  1909- 

The  report  of  a  year  ago  mentioned  the  water  plant  secured 
to  Khikwan  through  the  kindness  of  friends  in  the  states.  The 
year  just  ended  has  seen  the  work  finished  and  there  is  now 
no  other  field  in  Alaska  whose  water  supply  is  as  good  as  that 
at  Klukwan.  The  recent  action  of  the  Government  in  appoint- 
ing a  physician  to  travel  from  place  to  place  to  examine  and 
prescribe  for  the  sick  is  much  appreciated  by  our  workers 
among  the  natives.  Mr.  Fred  R.  Falconer  who  with  Mrs. 
Falconer  has  been  at  Klukwan  for  seven  years,  writes  that  the 
government  doctor  reached  Klukwan  unannounced,  so  that 
his  inspection  found  the  field  in  its  usual  condition,  while  others 
"having  been  warned  in  advance,  had  had  opportunity  to  clean 
up."  Notwithstanding  this,  his  verdict  placed  Klukwan  sec- 
ond,— if  not  first, — of  all  the  fields  under  his  care  in  cleanliness. 
Much  of  the  credit  for  this  is  due  to  our  missionaries  and  their 
home. 

As  is  usual  each  year,  Mr.  McLean,  the  Haines  pastor,  vis- 
ited Klukwan  soon  after  the  holiday  season  for  the  purpose  of 
administering  the  sacraments  and  of  giving  counsel  and 
encouragement.  On  this  last  visit  eight  couples  were  united 
in  Christian  marriage, — a  fact  whose  significance  appears 
when  it  is  known  that  they  were  surrounded  by  their  grown 
families, — the  ceremony  meaning  more  therefore  as  a  stand  for 
Christian  principles  than  as  merely  a  necessary  compliance  with 
civil  law. 

A  new  feature  here  has  been  in  connection  with  the  school, 
a  night  school  having  been  held  three  times  a  week.  The  third 
session  is  on  Friday  evening,  when  the  Bible  is  the  text  book. 
Apparently  much  good  is  resulting. 

A  proof  of  the  earnestness  of  these  people  is  shown  in  their 
missionary  offering  at  Christmas  time.  This  consisted  of  vari- 
ous treasures, — one  the  costume  of  a  warrior  who  parted  from 
it  as  from  something  which  reminded  him  of  the  old  life,  and 
as  wishing  literally  to  obey  the  injunction,"Forgetting  the  things 
which  are  behind."  This  and  the  other  curios  were  given  by 
the  Klukwan  people  to  be  sold  in  the  interest  of  work  among 
the  Jews,  thus  making  connection  between  the  recent  converts 
in  the  far  Northwest  and  the  people  of  the  ancient  chosen 
race. 

Skagway  is  still  a  comparatively  new  town  in  the  country 
between  southern  and  northern  Alaska,  where  the  population 
is  constantly  changing,  the  purpose  of  the  people  being  the 
search  not  for  spiritual  but  for  material  gain.  The  Rev.  and 
Mrs.  George  E.  Good  are  here  as  last  year. 

A  handicap  unappreciated  in  the  states  is  the  extreme  cold. 
At  Skagway  the  recent  winter  has  been  even  more  intense  than 
usual.  The  water  mains  were  frozen  for  weeks.  Because  of 
this  possibility  fire  insurance  cannot  be  secured.     Each  man

must  watch  his  own  property.  For  a  month  our  missionary 
rose  hourly  every  night  to  be  sure  that  our  church  and  manse 
were  safe.  The  severe  cold  has  of  course  had  some  influence 
upon  the  services.  Nevertheless  they  were  continued,  and  with 
encouragement.  The  most  promising  phase  of  the  work  seems 
to  be  the  Sabbath  school  which,  until  the  winter  set  in,  num- 
bered as  many  attendants  as  the  preaching  services.  A  good 
superintendent  and  a  competent  force  of  teachers  render  it  the 
more  effective. 

Our  missionaries  minister  not  only  through  the  church  ser- 
vices but  in  practical,  helpful  ways  through  the  week.  A  read- 
ing room  has  been  opened  especially  for  the  men  who  pass 
through  Skagway  to  and  from  the  interior. 

Since  the  opening  of  the  year  the  Rev.  James  H.  Condit, 
known  to  the  Board  through  his  labors  at  Juneau  from  1901 
to  1904,  accepted  the  earnest  call  of  the  Board  to  take  charge 
of  our  field  centering  at  Fairbanks.  At  no  small  sacrifice  he 
and  his  family  went  from  the  Third  Church  of  Sioux  City, 
Iowa,  to  a  work  of  no  small  difficulty.  A  peculiarly  heavy 
financial  deficit  embarrassed  the  enterprise.  Under  Mr.  Con- 
dit's  leadership,  seconded  ably  by  the  officers  of  the  church, 
plans  were  laid  for  a  systematic  campaign  which  should  result 
finally  in  the  cancelling  of  all  indebtedness.  The  variety  of 
people  to  be  reached  by  our  missionary's  ministrations  is  sug- 
gested in  this  statement  of  his  own:  "The  great  majority  of 
those  who  come  here  are  above  the  average  in  intelligence,  and 
the  rough  clothes  of  a  miner  often  cover  a  man  who  is  college 
bred.  As  before  in  Alaska,  I  find  that  it  requires  careful  prep- 
aration to  meet  the  intellectual  requirements  of  my  congrega- 
tion." To  those  who  have  not  followed  the  development  of 
interior  Alaska,  the  intelligence  and  culture  found  there,  and 
the  excellent  school  facilities — including  high  school  work — 
would  be  a  surprise.  There  is  a  neat  church  building  and  com- 
fortable manse,  without  which  the  work  could  not  be  carried 
on. 

The  outlying  regions  are  populous,  with  nine  little  towns, 
each  of  which  has  tributary  country  with  adjacent  creeks, 
each  with  its  outfit  and  crew  of  men,  some  with  their  families. 
The  population  of  the  region  is  estimated  at  four  thousand. 
There  are  saloons  in  all  the  principal  camps,  but  not  a  single 
missionary  of  any  denomination.  Although  our  Presbyterian 
Church  has  heretofore  furnished  a  man  for  these  camps,  and 
although  our  Board  has  been  using  every  effort  to  secure  a 
worker  for  this  most  needy  field,  it  has  been  unsuccessful  in 
its  search.  In  connection  with  his  busy  life  as  a  city  pastor, 
Mr.  Condit  is  conducting  occasional  services  at  the  most  acces- 
sible camps,  but  what  is  such  work  in  the  face  of  such  need? 


40  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [  I909- 

Cordova  is  one  of  the  newest  of  Alaska's  towns.  Begun 
only  last  summer  and  having  at  one  time  five  thousand  men, 
there  was  reported  a  winter  population  of  twelve  hundred.  It 
was  anticipated  that  by  the  close  of  the  present  fiscal  year  the 
camp  would  again  have  not  less  than  five  thousand.  The  devel- 
opment of  this  section  is  due  largely  to  the  special  copper  indus- 
try and  to  the  railroad  built  by  the  Guggenheim-Morgan-Have- 
meyer  syndicate,  who  have  a  large  plant  at  Cordova.  Last 
summer  they  constructed  fifty-two  miles  of  standard  gauge 
road  with  full  equipment  of  rolliilg  stock,  and  plans  are  made 
to  push  it  this  summer  several  hundred  miles  further.  With  a 
fine  harbor  and  fine  town  site  some  are  prophesying  that  this 
new  coast  city,  with  railroad  connections  with  the  interior,  will 
be  hereafter  the  key  to  interior  Alaska.  There  was  no  Protes- 
tant work  there  save  that  conducted  by  the  Episcopal  Church 
when  the  Rev.  S.  Hall  Young,  D.  D.,  long  known  for  his 
efllorts  in  Alaskan  pioneering,  entered  the  field  last  fall.  At 
the  writing  of  this  report  it  has  not  been  possible  to  receive 
word  from  him  of  the  winter's  work.  Meantime  the  outlook 
is  full  of  promise. 

The  year  at  Barrow  has  been  marked  by  a  change  of  mis- 
sionaries, the  Rev.  Samuel  R.  Spriggs  returning  to  the  states 
by  a  perilous  journey  of  many  miles  in  an  open  boat  through  a 
sea  filled  with  threatening  ice.  He  and  Mrs.  Spriggs  and  their 
little  son  were  kept  safely  through  all  dangers  and  have  been 
continuing  their  ministry  in  behalf  of  Alaska  since  their  return 
by  speaking  as  engagements  offered.  On  their  way  out  they 
met  the  Rev.  H.  R.  INIarsh.  M.  D.,  whose  devotion  to  this  soli- 
tary field  led  him  and  his  family  to  go  back.  But.  although 
there  were  so  many  things  that  might  have  been  said,  the  exi- 
gencies of  the  voyage  forbade  more  than  simply  a  passing 
greeting  as  Dr.  Marsh  went  in  to  the  isolated  station  with  its 
long  cold  winter.  The  only  word  received  since  their  arrival 
bears  earnest  witness  to  the  excellence  of  the  service  of  the 
Spriggs  during  the  four  years  of  Dr.  Marsh's  absence.  Mr. 
Spriggs  did  all  that  was  possible  in  his  ministry  for  the  bodies 
of  the  natives.  The  return  of  an  equipped  physician,  however, 
carries  its  special  blessing. 

Dr.  Marsh  writes  that  the  medical  work  is  requiring  much 
thought.  Five  cases  of  typhoid  fever  were  demanding  his  best 
and  he  was  longing  for  a  hospital.  Within  a  month  he  had  at 
least  ten  cases  that  would  have  been  greatly  benefitted  by  hos- 
pital care. 

The  children  who  can  talk  English  are  in  a  Sabbath  school 
conducted  by  Mrs.  iNlarsh  on  Sunday  afternoons,  when  she 
reads  and  explains  Bible  stories  to  them,  as  they  lack  sufficient 
command  of  English  to  prepare  lessons.     An  average  of  two

hundred  at  church  services,  and  gifts  for  home  missions  of 
furs  to  the  value  of  two  hundred  eighty-eight  dollars  testify 
to  the  earnestness  and  depth  of  the  character  of  these, — our

PORTO  RICO. 

The  year  has  been  one  of  steady,  wholesome  progress.  A 
review  of  the  nine  years  of  our  work  presents  cause  for  grati- 
tude and  rejoicing.  Indeed  the  years  of  American  occupation 
have  borne  fruit  in  many  directions.  Better  roads,  better  sani- 
tation and  better  chances  for  popular  education  have  given  a 
new  appearance  to  the  Island.  But  the  most  marked  of  all 
signs  of  progress  is  represented  by  the  cause  of  evangelical 
missions.  There  are,  under  the  care  of  the  various  Protestant 
denominations,  perhaps  six  hundred  places  where  the  gospel 
is  preached  to  eager  congregations.  There  are  scores  of  young 
Porto  Ricans  studying  for  the  ministry.  There  are  probably 
more  than  ten  thousand  Protestant  Christians  who  are  rejoic- 
ing in  deliverance  from  the  bondage  of  an  effete  Romanism. 
There  is  church  and  school  property  aggregating  in  value  sev- 
eral hundreds  of  thousands  of  dollars,  showing  the  stability  of 
the  evangelical  work.  There  are  three  religious  papers  giving 
to  the  people  intelligence  of  Christian  truth,  and  there  are  sev- 
eral hospitals  and  dispensaries  relieving  the  physical  suffering 
for  which,  under  the  old  regime,  little  provision  had  been  made. 

No  wonder  the  superintendent  of  one  of  the  educational  dis- 
tricts recently  in  a  railway  train  said  loud  enough  for  all  to 
hear,  "The  Bible  is  the  real  hope  of  Porto  Rico. — more  than 
liberty,  more  than  prosperity,  more  even  than  education ;  for 
there  can  be  no  real  liberty  nor  prosperity  that  are  not  founded 
on  the  teachings  of  that  Book.  Hence  education  to  be  truly 
profitable  must  include  the  teachings  of  the  Bible.  I  am  super- 
intendent of  a  large  school  work ;  I  am  establishing  a  public 
library  in  my  town,  and  doing  various  other  things ; — but  my 
best  work  is  as  superintendent  of  a  Sabbath  school." 

The  year's  history  on  our  fields  is  herewith  presented : 

The  work  at  San  Juan  divides  naturally  into  two  parts, — the 
English  and  the  Spanish. 

San  Juan,  as  the  capital  of  the  Island,  has  a  large  American 
colony,  and  it  was  to  interest  these  resident  Americans  that  the 
English  work  was  begun.  In  a  foreign  land  it  is  easy  to  slip 
away  from  the  responsibilities  of  church  support,  or  even  of 
church  attendance.  Many  who  at  home  attend  church  regu- 
larly, realizing — though  vaguely  perhaps — what  church  life 
means  for  a  community,  cannot  be  counted  upon  for  any  sup- 
port in  the  enervating  life  of  the  tropics.  For  this  reason, 
though  the  American  colony  is  large,  the  attendance  on  the 


42  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [  I909- 

church  service  is  comparatively  small;  the  further  fact  that, 
of  the  many  Americans  who  come  to  the  Island,  very  few 
expect  to  remain  long,  makes  the  church  unable  to  approach 
anything  like  self-support. 

To  the  Hugh  O'Neill  Memorial  building,  already  completed 
for  the  use  of  our  churches  and  the  mission  school  under  the 
Woman's  Board,  there  has  been  added  a  mirador,  giving  the 
teachers  equipment  far  more  suitable,  and  because  of  which 
they  will  be  able  the  better  to  carry  on  their  work.  We  now 
have  therefore  a  fine  building  on  a  central  street  containing  in 
addition  to  the  church  itself  two  school  rooms  and  a  teachers' 
home. 

The  church  is  used  by  both  the  English  church  and  the  Span- 
ish church, — the  second  Presbyterian  Church  of  San  Juan, 
which  hold  regular  Sunday  services  besides  Sunday  school  and 
prayer-meeting  and  all  show  an  increase  in  attendance. 

After  six  years  of  loyal  service  on  this  field  in  charge  of  both 
churches  the  Rev.  Robert  McLean  was  compelled  for  family 
reasons  to  accept  a  call  to  his  former  church  in  Oregon.  He 
left  the  work  in  May.  He.  was  succeeded  in  June  by  the  Rev. 
Edward  A.  Odell,  who  was  called  from  Lares  and  who  is  push- 
ing the  work  with  earnestness. 

An  interesting  out-station  under  Mr.  Odell's  care  is  Toa 
Alta,  a  town  about  eighteen  miles  from  San  Juan.  This  is  reg- 
ularly ministered  to  by  Tomas  V.  Martinez,  formerly  a  Roman 
Catholic  priest,  but  now  an  earnest  preacher  of  the  gospel. 
Services  are  conducted  in  a  rented  room,  which  has  been  made 
into  the  semblance  of  a  chapel  by  the  generosity  of  a  member 
of  the  congregation.  In  a  land  where  time  does  not  count  for 
much,  a  bell  to  notify  the  people  of  the  hour  of  service  is 
almost  a  necessity.  This  need  has  recently  been  met  by  Mr. 
John  H.  Converse,  to  whom  other  Porto  Rican  missions  are 
indebted  for  similar  equipment. 

Our  oldest  station  on  the  Island  is  at  Santurce,  a  suburb  of 
San  Juan.  Our  church  here  has  prospered  under  the  ministry 
of  the  Rev.  Frank  S.  Gloeckner,  who  took  charge  of  the  work 
in  May,  1908,  upon  Mr.  McLean's  return  to  the  states.  The 
membership  of  the  church  is  about  three  hundred,  and  the 
value  of  the  nine  years  of  gospel  teaching  is  apparent  in  the 
Christian  life  of  these  people,  and  especially  in  the  fact  that 
six  natives  constitute  the  session.  They  are  a  strong  body  of 
men  and  prove  their  faith  by  their  diligence  in  personal  ser- 
vice. One  of  them  superintends  the  Sunday  school,  others  the 
cottage  prayer-meetings  held  in  different  localities  nearly  every 
night  in  the  week.  Monthly  services  are  also  held  in  six  differ- 
ent wards  of  the  town. 

Mr.  Gloeckner  holds  services  also  at  Cangrejo  Arriba  about 
five  miles  away.     The  congregation  there  has  outgrown  the 


1909-]  B0A5D    OF    HOME    MISSIONS.  43 

room  and  the  people  themselves  are  endeavoring  to  raise  money 
enough  to  build  a  chapel.  The  carpenter  members  of  the 
Santurce  congregation  have  promised  to  give  their  services, 
and  the  hope  is  that  the  chapel  will  not  cost  more  than  two 
hundred  dollars.  The  people  wish  to  use  their  chapel  also  as 
a  day-school,  and  offer  to  help  pay  a  teacher.  They  have  very 
limited  resources  but  they  hope  to  get  one  of  the  Porto  Rican 
teachers  who  will  be  willing  to  live  with  them  for  the  small 
support  they  can  offer.  The  incidental  expenses  of  this  mis- 
sion as  well  as  the  others  are  met  by  the  Santurce  church. 

The  Presbyterian  Hospital  under  the  Woman's  Board  still 
carries  on  its  beneficent  work.  Its  staff  includes  Miss  Jennie 
Ordway,  superintendent;  E.  Raymond  Hildreth,  M.  D.,  resi- 
dent physician ;  Miss  Jane  E.  Dunaway,  M.  D.,  assistant  phy- 
sician ;  four  American  nurses  and  a  matron.  There  are  also 
fifteen  Porto  Rican  student  nurses.  Our  hospital  was  the  first 
in  Porto  Rico  to  establish  a  training  school  for  native  nurses. 
The  value  of  this  part  of  the  service  commends  itself  increas- 
ingly to  the  people  of  the  Island,  while  the  medical  and  surgical 
work  of  the  hospital  is  spoken  of  in  the  highest  terms  not  only 
by  Spanish  physicians  but  by  the  army  and  navy  surgeons  sta- 
tioned in  San  Juan. 

The  total  number  treated  during  the  past  year  was  about 
nine  thousand.  Fuller  mention  of  this  hospital  and  the  schools 
will  be  found  in  the  report  of  the  Woman's  Board. 

Corozal  is  a  town  of  about  twelve  hundred,  in  the  mountains 
west  of  San  Juan,  and  our  work  there  is  well  established.  We 
have  a  good  church  building  which  seats  over  two  hundred. 
The  church  is  centrally  located  and  an  audience  can  always  be 
summoned  by  the  ringing  of  the  bell.  The  membership  is  about 
one  hundred  and  fifty. 

The  Rev.  H.  T.  Jason  has  been  pastor  here  since  1902  and 
has  gathered  together  a  body  of  earnest  Christian  people.  The 
service  of  song  is  made  an  important  part  of  the  church  life, 
and  the  missionary  feels  that  many  of  his  members  have  been 
drawn  into  the  church  by  its  power.  A  notable  instance  is  that 
of  a  family  who  lived  next  door  to  the  church.  Before  they 
knew  it  they  found  themselves  humming  the  tunes  they  so  fre- 
quently heard,  and  eventually  the  man  and  his  wife  and  three 
children  were  baptized. 

Mr.  Jason  ministers  also  to  Naranjito.  a  village  of  about  a 
thousand  inhabitants,  reached  by  a  bridle  trail  of  nine  miles 
across  the  mountains.  The  church  there  was  organized  in  1905 
and  two  of  its  young  men  have  already  enlisted  for  its  gospel 
ministry.     A  chapel  is  much  needed. 

The  Isabela  field  is  situated  near  the  northwest  corner  of  the 
Island  and  is  one  of  the  most  over-crowded  districts.   A  church 


44  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [  I909, 

bell  ringing  anywhere  could  be  heard  by  two  thousand  people^ 
all  living  within  two  miles  of  the  church. 

From  a  point  near  our  out-station  Jobos,  sixty  country  homes 
can  be  counted,  and  many  more  are  hidden  among  the  hills  and 
palm  trees.  About  eight  by  eighteen  miles  in  extent,  the  dis- 
trict contains  about  twenty-five  thousand  people,  of  whom 
twenty-three  thousand  live  in  the  country. 

The  present  missionary,  the  Rev.  Edwin  A.  McDonald,  came 
to  this  field  in  1906,  having  had  previous  Spanish  work  in  Mex- 
ico. There  has  been  steady  growth  in  the  past  three  years, 
and  in  the  three  churches  of  Isabela,  Quebradillas  and  Jobos 
there  is  now  a  roll  of  one  hundred  and  eight  accredited  mem- 
bers, who  have  proved  their  profession  by  their  works.  At 
Isabela  we  have  a  fine  church  building  and  a  good  manse.  Mr. 
McDonald  and  his  two  native  helpers,  Luis  Sanchez  and  Jose 
Martinez,  hold  weekly  meetings  at  eleven  preaching  places. 
About  five  hundred  people  attend  these  services  regularly  and 
half  as  many  more  occasionally.  The  work  reaches  indirectly 
many  more  than  those  who  attend  the  meetings,  for  many  are 
visited  in  their  homes,  as  on  other  fields,  and  the  missionary 
always  has  his  saddle  bags  full  of  portions  of  the  Scriptures  in 
Spanish  and  good  gospel  tracts,  which  are  distributed  by  the 
thousand,  are  eagerly  received,  and  for  the  most  part  carefully 
read. 

Aguadilla  is  a  coast  town,  twenty-three  miles  north  of 
Mayagiiez,  of  eight  thousand,  situated  in  a  district  whose  pop- 
ulation numbers  at  least  thirty  thousand.  In  the  city  we  have 
a  good  church  building  seating  about  four  hundred,  with  a 
manse  adjoining.  The  Rev.  John  Wythe  Lewis  took  up  the 
work  last  fall  after  the  retirement  of  the  Rev.  Leland  H. 
Tracy.  He  holds  an  English  service  for  the  few  American  res- 
idents. The  Spanish  services  are  well  attended  both  on  Sun- 
days and  week-days.  With  four  helpers,  Juan  B.  Soto,  Jacinto 
Roque,  Carlos  Barrios  and  Alfredo  Archilla,  and  a  Bible  reader 
— Isabel  Sales,  Mr.  Lewis  ministers  to  eleven  out-stations. 
One  of  the  most  interesting  of  these  is  Malesa  Alta,  six  miles 
from  Aguadilla,  where  we  have  an  organized  church  and  the 
people  contributed  liberally  toward  the  erection  of  their  chapel. 
Two  services  a  week  are  held  here  and  one  of  the  sons  of  this 
church  is  studying  in  our  Training  School  in  Mayagiiez. 

Medical  dispensary  work  is  being  carried  on  at  Aguadilla 
and  Isabela  by  Miss  Jane  Harris,  M.  D.  Though  not  commis- 
sioned by  the  Board,  she  is  giving  her  services  freely  as  a  med- 
ical missionary.  The  Woman's  Board  has  also  here  a  flour- 
ishing school  with  eight  grades  and  four  teachers. 

San  Sebastian  is  a  little  town  of  fifteen  hundred,  beautifully 
situated  in  the  hill  country  eighteen  miles  from  Aguadilla,  but

with  little  opportunity  for  employinent,  and  the  people  are  very 
poor.  The  Rev.  E.  S.  Lheureux  went  there  in  1903,  and  in 
1906  a  church  was  organized  which  has  been  steadily  growing 
in  numbers  and  influence.  Since  the  purchase  three  years  ago 
of  the  building  now  used  as  chapel  and  manse,  there  has  been 
a  change  in  the  attitude  of  the  people.  They  realize  that  the 
missionary  has  come  to  stay  and  the  work  appears  to  them 
to  have  more  stability. 

Mr.  Lheureux  preaches  also  at  four  out-stations, — Goacio, 
Collaso,  Guajataca  and  Sonador.  In  the  first  town  a  devout 
woman,  Mrs.  Trinidad  Dominguez,  helped  by  bringing  in  her 
neighbors  and  by  offering  land  on  which  to  build  the  chapel. 
Later,  she  became  the  teacher  in  a  school  conducted  in  the 
chapel,  and  she  has  now  forty  pupils  receiving  instruction  in 
the  ordinary  studies  and  in  the  Word  of  God. 

Lares  is  seven  and  a  half  miles  farther  up  in  the  hills  and 
has  a  population  of  about  two  thousand.  Served  by  Mr.  Odell 
for  about  two  years  it  was  left  vacant  by  his  call  to  San  Juan, 
since  which  time  the  Board  has  been  unable  to  find  a  minister 
for  the  field.  Under  the  direction  of  Mr.  Lheureux  services 
have  been  held  regularly  by  Jose  A.  Lopez,  a  native  Porto 
Rican.  It  is  the  center  of  a  thickly  settled  district  and,  although 
without  a  resident  missionary  pastor,  one  out-station  is  reached 
with  weekly  services.  The  Woman's  Board  has  at  Lares  a 
school  with  two  American  missionary  teachers.  It  is  hoped 
that  the  promise  made  to  the  people  may  soon  be  fulfilled  and 
a  missionary  sent  them. 

Afiasco  is  a  town  of  three  thousand  in  a  fertile  sugar  coun- 
try about  six  miles  from  Mayagiiez.  The  district  has  a  popula- 
tion of  twenty-five  thousand  and  embraces  the  towns  of  Afiasco 
and  Rincon,  and  the  surrounding  country  with  its  ten  barrios. 
Work  is  carried  on  in  the  town  and  in  six  of  these  barrios,  a 
native  helper,  Antonio  Rodriguez,  and  Mrs,  Juana  R.  de  Fou- 
caud,  a  Bible  reader,  assisting  the  pastor.  The  Rev.  Arnold 
Smith  has  been  faithfully  serving  this  field  under  the  great 
disadvantage  of  having  no  church  building  and  no  home.  A 
church  and  a  manse  for  Afiasco  are  of  the  greatest  importance 
to  the  work  there. 

The  event  of  the  year  in  this  field  was  the  erection  at  Rin- 
con of  a  chapel  seating  about  two  hundred,  built  partly  by  the 
gifts  of  the  Presbyterian  Church  of  Oneida,  New  York,  and 
equipped  with  an  organ  through  the  kindness  of  the  church  at 
Seneca  Falls,  New  York.  About  a  thousand  people  are  reached 
monthly  through  the  preaching  stations  of  this  field. 

The  great  market  day  in  Aiiasco,  as  elsewhere,  is  Sunday. 
Hundreds  of  people  gather  there  to  buy  and  sell.  The  mission- 
ary says,  "This  market  has  afforded  us  a  wonderful  opportunity 


46  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [  I909- 

to  preach  the  gospel  to  people  who  might  not  otherwise  hear 
it.  Tracts  are  distributed,  a  short  service  is  held  and  all  are 
invited  to  the  church." 

Mayagiiez  is  the  seaport  of  the  western  end  of  the  Island, 
a  city  of  eighteen  thousand  surrounded  by  a  municipal  district 
of  thirty-eight  thousand  inhabitants.  This  center  of  Protestant- 
ism continues  to  be  as  interesting  as  it  is  promising.  Our  work 
in  the  city  divides  into  four  departments. 

The  church  work  is  of  course  the  first,  and  that  around  which 
the  others  are  grouped.  In  1900  was  organized  the  first  church 
in  Mayagiiez,  known  as  the  Central  Church,  and  which  now 
reports  a  membership  of  more  than  five  hundred.  After  three 
years  of  struggle  a  fine  edifice  was  erected  at  a  cost  of  about  ten 
thousand  dollars.  The  Rev.Judson  L.  Underwood,  for  a  number 
of  years  in  charge  of  this  church,  and  also  of  the  Training 
School,  came  north  last  September  for  a  year  of  rest  and  study. 
His  work  in  his  absence  is  carried  by  the  Rev.  James  A.  McAl- 
lister who  conducts  an  English  service  each  Wednesday  even- 
ing in  addition  to  the  regular  services  of  the  Spanish  Church. 
He  is  assisted  here  by  two  native  helpers,  \^ictoriano  M. 
Fernandez  and  Diego  Rodriguez  Nater,  and  also  by  a  Bible

The  second  church  organized — La  Marina — is  now  more 
than  a  year  old,  located  by  the  seashore  in  an  entirely  differ- 
ent part  of  the  city.  There  one  of  our  faithful  helpers,  the 
Rev.  Pedro  Gil  conducts  regular  services  with  encouraging 
attendance.  A  Bible  reader,  Gregoria  Molina,  is  also  employed 
here.  The  work  still  extending,  a  chapel  in  the  eastern  part 
of  the  city — called  Balboa — became  a  necessity. 

The  next  important  phase  of  the  Mayagiiez  work  is  the  edu- 
cational. The  two  schools  of  the  Woman's  Board — the  one  at 
La  Marina  and  the  Colegio  Americano — are  both  full.  The 
latter  has  long  been  an  established  institution.  Only  recently 
have  we  acquired  the  large  building  which  now  houses  both 
the  Colegio  Americano  and  the  Training  School.  Our  mission 
property  covers  an  entire  block  on  the  best  street  of  the  city, 
and  is  conservatively  worth  fifty  thousand  dollars.  Adjoin- 
ing the  church  is  the  large  building  on  whose  second  floor  the 
Colegio  Americano  finds  abundant  and  attractive  accommoda- 
tions ;  on  the  first  floor  the  Training  School  finds  convenient 
quarters  for  recitation  rooms  and  dormitory.  During  the 
year  about  twenty-five  students  have  been  in  attendance,  and 
for  the  most  part  have  done  faithful  work.  Last  summer 
nine  were  employed  on  as  many  dift'erent  fields  where  they 
labored  under  the  supervision  of  our  missionaries.  Such 
vacation  opportunity  and  the  many  mission  stations  around  the 
city  give  the  students  a  chance  for  that  practical  training  whose 
lack  is  often  deplored  in  more  ambitious  institutions. 


1 909. J  BOARD    OF    HOME    MISSIONS.  47 

The  workers  in  the  Training  School  during  the  past  year 
have  been  Arturo  Salguero,  Evaristo  Lugo  and  Miss  Ina  F. 
Scott,  in  connection  with  Mr.  McAlHster,  Mr.  Harris  and  Mr. 
Gil,  who  teach  there  in  addition  to  their  pastoral  and  other 
missionary   work. 

The  third  feature  of  the  Mayagiiez  mission — scarce  second 
in  importance  and  in  manifest  results — is  the  medical.  Willis 
W.  Creswell,  M.  D.,  maintains  this  ministry  to  the  afflicted 
bodies  and  souls  that  crowd  his  daily  clinics.  As  many  as  a 
hundred  a  day  frequently  claim  his  services,  some  of  them 
walking  many. miles  to  reach  this  door  of  hope.  Religious 
exercises  mark  the  beginning  of  each  day's  work. 

Dr,  Creswell  is  ably  seconded  by  a  Porto  Rico  Christian, 
Mr.  Sandalio  Delgado,  an  expert  pharmacist.  The  dispensary 
is  a  part  of  our  large  property  here  and  during  the  year  altera- 
tions have  been  made,  affording  comfortable  house  accommo- 
dations for  the  physician. 

Clinics  are  also  held  in  Cabo  Rojo,  eight  miles  away  with  a 
population  of  thirty-five  hundred;  in  Lajas,  fifteen  miles 
away  with  a  population  of  eighteen  hundred;  and  in  Palma- 
rejo,  three  miles  farther.  Thus  widely  extended  is  this  blessed 
ministry  of  healing. 

The  fourth  department  of  this  mission  is  the  publishing 
plant.  A  small  building  at  the  rear  of  the  church  holds  the 
equipment.  Here  La  Voz  Evangelica,  the  Spanish  paper  of 
the  mission,  sends  out  its  weekly  messages,  a  light  of  intelli- 
gence and  of  gospel  truth  and  service,  into  many  a  dark  home. 

That  so  large  a  work  should  be  carried  on  by  so  few  Ameri- 
can missionaries  and  their  native  helpers  is  evidence  at  once  of 
economy  of  administration,  and  the  over-burdening  of  those 
engaged  in  the  extended  and  exacting  service. 

The  evangelistic  work  in  the  district  of  Mayagiiez  includes 
four  churches, — one  at  Homogueros ;  another  at  Rosario ; 
another  at  Maricao,  a  most  interesting  field  up  in  the  moun- 
tains, eighteen  miles  from  the  city,  and  another  at  Cabo  Rojo. 

The  Rev.  Federico  Garcia  Davila  took  charge  of  Maricao  last 
September.  A  church  of  fourteen  members  has  been  organ- 
ized. The  town  is  in  the  midst  of  a  rich  coffee  region  and 
bids  fair  to  become  the  center  of  a  widespread  work.  Already 
services  have  been  opened  in  several  of  the  large  coffee  plan- 
tations where  people  gather,  eager  to  hear  the  new  message. 
With  Maricao  is  grouped  Las  Marias,  another  mountain  town. 
Mr.  Lheureux  of  San  Sebastian  had  this  station  as  part  of 
his  field,  but  rivers  to  be  crossed  made  it  difficult  of  access. 
Our  permanence  here  is  evidenced  by  the  purchase  during- the 
year  of  a  small  building  for  a  chapel.  Here  also  is  a  large 
region,  comprising  a  population  of  twenty  thousand,  most  of 
whom  are  readily  reached  by  the  messenger  of  Christ.     The 


48  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [l909- 

density  of  population  in  Porto  Rico  makes  it  easy  to  gather 
an  audience  anywhere. 

The  most  important  church  in  this  district,  outside  of  the  city 
of  Mayagiiez,  is  at  Cabo  Rojo  eight  miles  away.  Mr.  McAl- 
lister, in  addition  to  his  work  in  the  Training  School  and  in  the 
church  at  Mayagiiez,  conducts  services  regularly  here  in  our 
new  church  building  situated  on  one  of  the  best  streets  in 
the  town.  Some  of  the  leading  citizens  are  identifying  them- 
selves with  the  church  which  has  over  eighty  members  and  has 
given  eight  candidates  for  the  ministry.  Gonzales  Nuin  is  the 
native  resident  helper.  The  missionary  and  the  helpers  in 
this  district  reach  regularly  a  large  number  of  out-stations. 

Palmajero,  reached  by  Dr.  Creswell  in  his  clinics,  is  a  rural 
region,  thickly  settled.  It  is  notable  for  the  fact  that  there  is 
established  an  Institute  of  Agriculture  and  Arts,  presided  over 
by  a  member  of  our  Lajas  church,  Juan  Cancio.  Himself  a 
well-to-do  farmer,  he  felt  that  the  youth  of  Porto  Rico  should 
be  trained  in  the  most  effective  methods  of  agriculture.  Pur- 
posing to  do  all  in  his  power  to  secure  this  advantage  for  them, 
he  has  succeeded  in  establishing  this  Institute  which  is  now 
aided  bv  the  Government.  With  equal  interest  in  spiritual 
affairs  he  has  done  all  in  his  power  to  open  the  way  for  our 
work.  Last  year  he  himself  gave  a  lot  and  built  for  our  ser- 
vices a  chapel  seating  about  one  hundred  and  fifty. 

Twelve  miles  southeast  of  Mayagiiez  is  San  German,  a  town 
of  about  seven  thousand.  As  a  result  of  the  establishing  of 
our  equipment  there — including  the  church  building  seating 
four  hundred  and  costing  four  thousand  dollars,  and  manse 
costing  about  twenty-five  hundred  dollars — the  church  is  grow- 
ing steadily  and  developing  in  every  way.  In  the  eyes  of  the 
people  the  idea  of  permanence  adds  attractiveness  and  influ- 
ence. They  have  a  good  Sunday  school,  an  enthusiastic  Chris- 
tian Endeavor  Society,  a  boys'  club,  a  catechism  service,  and 
three  Sunday  schools  held  in  different  parts  of  the  town. 

The  Rev.  J.  Will  Harris  is  pastor  of  this  field  and — with 
his  native  assistants,  Emilio  Castillo,  Jose  A.  Martinez,  Jose 
Velez  Segarra,  Celso  Calderon,  and  a  Bible  reader,  Mrs.  Josefa 
Martinez, — conducts  services  in  twenty  out-stations  throughout 
an  extensive  district.  The  organized  churches  are  at  San  Ger- 
man, La  Pica,  Sabana  Grande  and  Lajas. 

This  review  of  the  Porto  Rican  field  makes  manifest  the 
need  of  more  church  buildings  and  chapels  and  the  necessity 
for  steady  advance. 

CUBA. 

Last  summer  the  Congregational  Home  Missionary  Society 
offered  the  conduct  of  its  missionary  work  in  the  Island  of 
Cuba  to  this  Board.  This  was  done  in  the  conviction  that 
efficiency    and    economy    of    administration    could    thus    be 


1909.  j  BOARD    OF    HOME    MISSIONS.  49 

secured.  The  Board  after  careful  deliberation  accepted  this 
additional  burden  in  the  same  conviction. 

A  few  stations  formerly  supported  by  both  Boards  are  now 
to  be  grouped  together,  thus  economizing  men  and  money. 
The  additional  burden  will  not  be  large,  and  the  demonstration 
of  the  spirit  of  federation  thus  revealed  will  in  these  days  of 
federation,  we  are  sure,  be  very  pleasant  tidings  to  the  Church. 

The  Rev.  J.  Milton  Greene,  D.  D.,  has  continued  as  our 
superintendent  in  Cuba.  We  present  from  him  the  following 
resume  of  the  past  year  there : 

With  one  quarter  of  the  population  of  Cuba  contiguous  to 
our  twenty-seven  centers  of  preaching,  twenty- four  Sabbath 
schools  and  four  day-schools,  and  having  these  various  fields 
entirely  to  ourselves  save  at  the  three  most  populous  points,  a 
grand  opportunity  is  presented  to  our  mission.  Another  fea- 
ture of  advantage  is  the  fact  that,  with  the  two  exceptions  of 
Sancti  Spiritus  and  Cabaiguan,  all  our  work  lies  in  the  three 
western  provinces  of  the  Island,  thus  promoting  facility  of 
communication  and  reducing  traveling  expenses  to  a  minimum. 

In  and  immediately  adjacent  to  Havana  we  have  nine  preach- 
ing stations  and  Sabbath  schools,  two  organized  churches  and 
one  day  and  boarding  school.  By  the  recent  transfer  to  us  of 
the  work  heretofore  conducted  by  the  Congregational  Home 
Missionary  Society,  four  organized  churches  are  added  to  our 
list,  situated  respectively  in  Guanabacoa,  Matanzas,  San 
Antonio  de  los  Banos,  and  Guanajay,  also  the  San  Francisco 
mission  in  Havana.  The  total  membership  of  these  churches 
is  approximately  two  hundred  and  fifty. 

This  report  is  being  prepared  just  after  the  closing  of  two 
grand  horticultural  exhibitions  held  in  Havana  and  the  award- 
ing of  prizes  for  the  best  specimens  of  citrous  fruits,  vege- 
tables, fibrous  plants,  textures,  and  so  forth,  and  a  most  notable 
feature  in  these  displays  has  been  that  nearly  all  of  them  are 
the  product  of  American  intelligence  and  enterprise.  The 
Cubans  have  expressed  themselves  as  amazed  at  the  variety  and 
quality  of  these  products  and  have  gained  a  new  idea  of  the 
wondrous  possibilities  presented  in  their  native  soil  and  climate. 

All  this  may  well  suggest  to  us  what  is  passing  also  in  the 
moral  and  spiritual  sphere  owing  to  the  presence  among  this 
people  of  devoted  men  and  women  whose  only  ideal  and  aim 
are  to  open  for  them  God's  long-closed  Book  and  to  put  them 
in  possession  of  its  priceless  benefits  for  the  building  of  indi- 
vidual character,  the  purification  of  domestic  life  and  the  estab- 
lishment of  civic  righteousness. 

It  would  be  gratifying  could  we  report  any  signs  of  a  grow- 
ing evangelical  spirit  on  the  part  of  the  ancestral  Church  in 
Cuba,  but  thus  far  we  have  looked  in  vain  to  find  it.  Their 
immense  wealth,  their  social  prestige,  and  their  ecclesiastical 


50  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [  IQOQ- 

ingenuity  are  tirelessly  employed  to  offset  our  influence  while 
they  industriously  continue  to  propagate  the  deadly  errors 
which  are  the  soul  of  their  system.  i\ot  a  few  of  the  priests 
preach  good  ethical  discourses,  but  the  effect  of  these  is  neu- 
tralized by  their  lives  and  in  their  teaching  no  trace  is  found  of 
salvation  from  sin  through  the  blood  of  Christ  and  the  work 
of  the  Holy  Spirit. 

Strange  as  it  may  seem,  Romanism  in  Cuba  is  a  blend  of 
Unitarianism  with  Mariolatry,  and  both  are  fostered  by  a  well 
nigh  frenzied  institutional  pride  and  conceit  which  consider 
ecclesiastical  affiliation  as  synonymous  with  and  inseparable 
from  a  genuine  patriotism,  so  that  very  many  look  askance 
upon  one  who  espouses  the  evangelical  faith  as  being  "off 
color"  politically. 

In  many  places  the  priests  have  brightened  up  their  churches, 
introduced  pews,  improved  the  grounds  and  established  Sun- 
day schools  with  prizes  for  attendance, — all  this  as  the  result 
of  our  presence ;  but  in  connection  with  these  things  they  have 
redoubled  their  efforts  in  the  establishment  of  neighborhood 
day-schools,  in  admonishing,  persuading  and  threatening  the 
people,  using  for  this  purpose  deceitful  teaching,  denial  of 
burial  in  consecrated  ground,  social  ostracism  and  excom- 
munication. 

Such  is  our  environment  so  far  as  a  considerable  part  of  the 
Cuban  people  are  concerned,  but  we  have  our  Galilee  as  well 
as  our  Judea,  and  we  have  our  "common  people"  as  well  as 
our  Pharisaical  chief  priests  and  scribes.  So  it  is  that  many 
a  Nicodemus,  a  centurion,  a  Lydia,  and  not  a  few  Samaritans 
are  found  waiting  for  the  light  and  eagerly  welcoming  it. 

The  past  year  has  been  one  of  social  unrest,  political  excite- 
ment, industrial  prostration  and  widespread  lawlessness.  Inten- 
sified desecration  of  the  Sabbath,  open  gambling,  demoralizing 
public  spectacles,  cock-fights,  and  wild,  godless  pleasure-seek- 
ing were  never  so  much  in  evidence  as  during  this  transitional 
period.  But  while  all  this  has  saddened  us  and  at  times  tempted 
us  to  discouragement,  it  has  furnished  a  test  of  the  hold  which 
the  gospel  has  upon  our  people  and  demonstrated  to  what 
extent  a  God-fearing  spirit  exists  among  them.  Considering 
our  field  as  a  whole  the  result  has  been  most  gratifying,  for 
while  the  number  of  hopeful  conversions  has  been  less  than  in 
some  former  years,  attendance  upon  our  services  has  suffered 
very  little  if  at  all,  interest  in  the  study  of  God's  Word  has 
steadily  grown,  and  enthusiasm  for  the  extension  of  the  gospel 
was  never  more  marked. 

In  Havana  the  Central  Church,  with  its  five  out-stations 
under  the  care  of  Dr.  Greene,  aided  by  the  Rev.  Francisco 
Castro  and  the  Rev.  Gregorio  F.  Martinez,  has  encountered 
the  bitter  opposition  of  the  Romish  clergy  along  the  lines  indi- 


igog.]  BOARD    OF    HOME    MISSIONS.  $1 

cated  above.  They  have  belted  our  places  of  v^orship  with 
schools ;  they  have  gone  in  person  or  sent  sisters  of  charity 
from  house  to  house ;  they  have  introduced  spies  into  our 
chapels  and  branded  our  workers  as  the  incarnation  of  all 
heresy  and  mischief ;  but  in  spite  of  it  all,  scores  and  hundreds 
of  new  faces  have  been  seen  at  our  services  and  especially  at 
our  beautiful  new  church  whose  architectural  impressiveness 
and  homelike  atmosphere  prove  an  irresistible  charm  to  many 
a  passer-by.  What  has  been  aimed  at  has  been  a  simple,  illus- 
trative, expository  and  spiritual  setting  forth  of  gospel  truth  to 
young  and  old  as  a  guide  and  help  in  daily  life  and  in  all  human 
relations.  And  in  very  many  cases  our  hearts  have  been  glad- 
dened by  the  fruit  of  all  this  as  seen  in  transformed,  purified, 
robust  and  aggressive  Christian  character,  which  abandons 
false  ideas,  loose  maxims  and  hurtful,  traditional  customs  in 
accord  with  divine  teaching. 

At  Regla  the  Rev.  Antonio  Mazzorana  has  continued  his 
effective  work,  infusing  among  the  brethren  a  spirit  of  genuine 
mutual  helpfulness,  developing  a  practical  philanthropy  toward 
the  outlying  neighborhood,  training  the  young  in  divine  truth 
and  service,  and  encouraging  a  spirit  of  fraternal  afifection 
which  has  given  to  this  church  a  very  marked  unity  and  soli- 
darity and  won  it  the  respect  and  admiration  of  those  without. 

Mr.  Mazzorana  is  also  in  charge  of  the  San  Francisco  chapel 
where  the  preaching  services  and  Sabbath  school  are  being 
attended  by  increasing  numbers. 

At  Guanabacoa,  five  miles  east  of  Havana,  we  have  a  very 
important  suburb  and  a  long-established  work  under  the  pas- 
toral care  of  the  Rev.  H.  B.  Someillan.  This  good  brother, 
though  Cuban  by  birth,  was  educated  in  the  states,  is  thor- 
oughly imbued  with  the  gospel  spirit  and  is  easily  the  most 
effective  preacher  among  all  our  native  brethren.  He  will  be 
of  great  service  to  us  for  evangelistic  work  among  the  outlying 
congregations. 

At  Bejucal,  fifteen  miles  south  of  Havana,  we  have  an  organ- 
ized church  and  a  fine  field.  Services  are  maintained  during 
the  week  as  we  are  able  by  sending  to  them  alternately  the  Rev, 
Evaristo  P.  Collazo  of  Giiira  and  some  brother  from  Havana, 
but  their  great  need  is  a  resident  pastor. 

Going  west  from  Havana  a  distance  of  thirty  miles  we  reach 
Giiira  de  Melena,  one  of  the  most  prosperous  cities  of  the 
Island.  The  work  here  under  Mr.  Collazo's  care  is  in  a  flour- 
ishing condition,  with  a  constantly  increasing  attendance  at 
both  the  preaching  services  and  Sabbath  school.  Weekly  neigh- 
borhood services  are  also  held  and  an  auxiliary  Sabbath  school 
in  a  remote  part  of  the  city. 

San  Cristobal,  sixty  miles  west  of  Havana,  is  grouped  with 
Artemisa.  Cayajobos  and  Carlota  under  the  faithful  ministry 


52  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [  IQOQ- 

of  the  Rev.  Jose  Lopez,  who  is  second  to  none  of  our  workers 
in  his  faithfulness  and  efficiency  both  as  an  instructive,  earnest 
preacher  and  an  untiring  pastor.  Marked  and  continued  growth 
are  noticeable  on  all  these  fields  except  Artemisa  which  seems 
to  be  a  very  center  both  of  blind  fanaticism  and  godless  aban- 
don. Here  too  the  great  need  is  of  a  resident  pastor  and  Sab- 
bath services. 

Ten  miles  north  of  Giiira  is  the  important  city  of  San 
Antonio  de  los  Banos  where  the  pastor  is  the  Rev.  Bernardino 
Domas.  This  field  has  come  to  us  from  the  Congregational 
Church  and  presents  great  possibilities  under  wise  direction. 

The  same  may  be  said  of  Guanajay,  twelve  miles  north  of 
Artemisa  and  forty  miles  west  of  Havana.  This  city  has 
always  been  regarded  as  one  of  the  most  fanatical,  but  the 
pastor,  the  Rev.  Jose  Fortuny,  a  converted  Esculapian  priest, 
has  after  four  years  of  faithful  labor  gathered  a  church  of 
over  a  hundred  members  and  won  the  respect  of  all  who  know 
him.     This  is  another  of  our  new  fields. 

Continuing  west  from  Guanajay,  at  a  distance  of  sixty-five 
miles  from  Havana,  we  reach  Bahia  Honda,  which  is  grouped 
with  Buenaventura  three  miles  distant,  under  the  care  of  Mr. 
Jesus  Hernandez,  a  licentiate  of  our  presbytery  and  a  young 
man  of  rare  ability  and  consecration.  He  has  but  recently 
begun  his  work  in  the  face  of  most  bitter  opposition  from  the 
local  priest,  but  his  sterling  character  and  tactful,  loving  treat- 
ment of  the  people  are  rapidly  winning  their  confidence  and 
inclining  them  to  listen  to  his  messages  of  life  and  salvation. 
No  darker  spot,  morally  considered,  exists  in  Cuba  than  this 
region  and  we  ask  the  special  prayers  of  our  friends  at  home 
for  this  good  brother. 

Returning  now  to  Havana  and  going  southeast  we  come  at 
a  distance  of  forty  miles  to  Giiines  which  is  grouped  with  San 
Tose  de  las  Lajas,  ten  miles  distant,  under  the  care  of  the  Rev. 
A.  Waldo  Stevenson,  who  also  holds  occasional  services  at  an 
intermediate  point  called  La  Loma.  This  whole  region  has 
been  leavened  with  gospel  truth  and  influence  by  the  untiring 
labors  of  the  pastor  and  as  a  result  of  the  work  carried  on  now 
for  over  six  years  in  our  day-school  under  the  most  efficient 
direction  of  ]\Tiss  Beulah  L.  Wilson.  No  one  can  look  into  this 
school  of  eighty  pupils  and  scan  the  faces  of  the  half  dozen  or 
more  young  men  and  women  who  will  graduate  at  the  end  of 
this  year,  without  feeling  sure  that  such  schools  at  all  our 
centers  of  work  are  the  missing  links  in  our  missionary  activi- 
ties and  that  they,  more  than  any  other  agency,  would  enable 
us  to  solve  the  problems  that  confront  us.  A  great  majority  of 
these  pupils  also  attend  regularly  the  Sabbath  school  and 
nearly  all  the  larger  of  them  are  professed  Christians. 

Eighteen   miles   farther  toward  the  southeast  brings  us  to 


1909.]  BOARD    OF    HOME    MISSIONS.  53 

Nueva  Paz  which,  with  San  Nicolas,  about  half  the  distance, 
is  under  the  care  of  the  Rev.  Hubert  G.  Smith,  who  is  most 
efficiently  aided  at  the  second  point  by  an  elder,  Mr.  Ricardo 
Viamontes.  a  licentiate  of  the  presbytery.  At  both  these  points 
the  work  has  greatly  flourished  during  the  past  year  and  this  in 
spite  of  six  months'  absence  on  the  part  of  the  pastor  and  his 
family.  So  fimily  established  and  so  well  trained  were  the 
brethren  there  and  so  faithful  and  efficient  were  the  officers  of 
the  church  that  the  pastor  returned  to  find  the  audiences  larger 
than  when  he  left.  Ground  has  been  secured  for  a  church 
building,  and  when  this  report  is  printed  the  edifice  will  be 
nearing  completion,— the  third  in  our  mission.  By  a  special 
arrangement  the  Board  will  cooperate  with  the  brethren  for 
its  construction,  paying  only  what  otherwise  it  would  cost  them 
for  five  years  to  rent  a  building.  Under  Miss  Mary  M.  Coy 
a  splendid  day  school  of  sixty  pupils  is  being  carried  on  with 
such  help  as  Mr.  Smith  can  give. 

Next  to  Havana  our  largest  center  of  operations  is  Matan- 
zas,  a  city  of  fifty  thousand  inhabitants,  sixty  miles  east  of  the 
capital.  Here  we  have  a  church  of  about  eighty  members  in  a 
ward  of  the  city  which  numbers  some  four  thousand.  Three 
other  missions  are  represented  but  are  so  located  in  different 
districts  of  the  city  that  there  is  no  competition.  In  spite  of 
fierce  and  ceaseless  opposition  on  the  part  of  a  fanatical  priest- 
hood the  Rev.  E.  P.  Herrick,  the  pastor,  has  for  seven  years 
labored  kindly  and  tactfully  until  now,  with  God's  blessing,  we 
have  a  stable  and  prosperous  church  which  is  recognized  as 
one  of  the  permanent  and  most  influential  institutions  for  the 
moral  and  spiritual  uplifting  of  the  masses.  A  flourishing 
Sabbath  school  and  Christian  Endeavor  Society  are  doing  a 
great  work  for  the  young.  The  two  pressing  needs  are  a  day- 
school  and  a  church  building. 

Our  two  remaining  centers  are  Sancti  Spiritus  and  Cabai- 
guan,  where  the  Rev.  Herbert  S.  Harris  is  pastor,  being  aided 
at  the  second  point  by  Elder  Gomez,  who  is  also  a  licentiate 
of  the  presbytery.  After  seven  years  of  efficient  organization 
and  pastoral  oversight  we  have  here  at  the  center  the  largest 
church  in  our  presbytery,  situated  in  a  field  which  comprises 
twenty-five  thousand  inhabitants  and  where  no  other  mission 
is  represented.  The  work  is  carried  on  from  the  main  chapel, 
centrally  located,  but  with  very  insufficient  accommodations  for 
the  services,  and  includes  three  other  points  at  which  weekly 
preaching  services  and  Sabbath  schools  are  held.  Two  of  these 
are  in  Sancti  Spiritus  itself  and  the  third  at  Cabaiguan,  fifteen 
miles  distant,  where  we  have  a  separate  church  organization  of 
about  forty  members.  In  all,  six  preaching  services  are  held 
weekly  and  four  Sabbath  schools. 

Another  most  important  feature  is  the  day-school  with  its 


54  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [  IQOQ- 

seventy  pupils  who  daily  receive  wholesome  Christian  instruc- 
tion and  many  of  whom  have  declared  their  faith  in  Jesus 
Christ  as  their  Saviour.  At  least  seven  of  the  young  men  have 
dedicated  their  lives  to  active  Christian  work,  of  whom  six 
are  now  pursuing  their  preparatory  studies  in  the  United 
States  or  Mexico.  At  nearly  every  communion  service  new 
members  and  candidates  are  received. 

In  closing  this  report  we  cannot  sufficiently  express  our 
appreciation  of  the  important  work  being  done  by  our  Wom- 
an's Board  in  the  three  day-schools  above  referred  to,  and  in 
the  fourth  established  in  Havana  during  the  last  year  and  most 
successfully  conducted  by  Miss  Martha  Bell  Hunter,  aided  by 
her  sister,  Miss  Annie  Hunter.  Here  are  being  educated  some 
forty  girls,  many  of  whom  are  from  the  best  Cuban  families, 
and  the  foundations  have  been  laid  for  what  should  do  in 
Cuba  that  which  our  Mayagiiez  school  is  doing  in  Porto  Rico, 
and  our  three  boarding-schools  in  Mexico,  where  in  twenty-five 
years  over  twelve  hundred  girls  have  been  thoroughly  trained 
intellectually  and  imbued  with  the  spirit  of  the  gospel.  The 
pivotal  work  in  these  Romish  countries  is  educational. 

LITERATURE  DEPARTMENT. 

It  is  the  purpose  of  this  department  to  furnish  literature  and 
methods  to  stimulate  and  educate  our  churches  to  larger  giv- 
ing. Its  work  has  been  steadily  growing  as  the  increase  in  lit- 
erature published  and  the  financial  results  prove. 

The  total  receipts  from  the  sales  of  literature  fiom  April, 
1908,  to  April,  1909,  are  $8,685.85.  This  sum  represents 
$2,104.09  received  from  the  sales  of  publications  of  the  Board 
of  Home  Missions,  $559.91  from  the  rentals  of  slides,  and 
$6,021.85  from  the  sales  of  literature  of  the  Woman's  Board 
of  Home  Missions.  The  total  increase  in  the  receipts  of  the 
joint  department  is  $1,547.83. 

To  set  forth  the  needs  of  the  work  our  Board  has  issued 
1,758,250  copies  of  leaflets  containing  6,749,975  pages,  which 
have  been  sent  out  together  with  358,455  collection  envelopes. 
The  publications  issued  and  paid  for  jointly  by  our  two  Boards 
number  83,425  copies,  containing  2,386,000  pages.  These  fig- 
ures include  the  Prayer  Calendar  for  1909  of  which  there  have 
been  sold  twenty-five  hundred  copies  more  than  of  any  previous 
issue. 

The  plan  for  supplying  leaflets  on  the  monthly  topics  for 
general  distribution  in  churches,  which  ha^  been  continued  for 
several  years,  is  increasingly  and  profitably  useful.  Especially 
appointed  representatives  in  1,353  churches  have  been  monthly 
receiving  and  distributing  seventy-eight  thousand  copies  of 
leaflets  among  their  members  during  the  past  year.    A  careful 


1909.]  BOARD    OF    HOME    MISSIONS.  55 

inquiry  into  the  use  of  these  has  helped  us  to  retain  on  our  Hsts 
only  the  churches  in  which  they  are  appreciated. 

The  Boards'  Committee  on  the  Distribution  of  Literature  has 
transferred  to  our  office  about  2,181  orders  for  literature  and 
collection  envelopes  which  have  been  sent  to  churches  at  the 
time  for  the  taking  of  annual  offerings.  In  addition  to  these 
we  have  received  more  special  requests  for  helps  on  different 
phases  of  the  home  mission  enterprise. 

In  connection  with  our  department  we  have  a  circulating 
library  from  which  many  volumes  have  been  loaned  during 
the  year  to  aid  in  the  development  of  topics  for  which  there 
is  a  lack  of  literature  in  leaflet  form. 

Our  stereopticon  lecture  department  also  shows  a  gratify- 
ing increase  in  service,  the  slides  having  been  exhibited  about 
four  hundred  and  thirty  times.  The  favorable  comments  vol- 
untarily offered  by  those  using  the  slides  encourage  us  to  make 
larger  plans  for  their  future.  One  clergyman  writes,  "I  am 
returning  the  slides  on  'Making  Americans'.  The  lecture  was 
largely  attended,  and  all  manifested  a  great  interest  in  it  and 
the  facts  presented.  The  offering  received  amounted  to  over 
one  hundred  and  twenty-five  dollars,  which  greatly  pleased  us 
all."  Another  assures  us,  "The  value  of  these  lantern  exhibi- 
tions for  proving  the  worth  of  missions  and  their  achieve- 
ments cannot  be  measured.  Several  spoke  of  this  after  the 
lecture  last  evening." 

Because  of  the  expense  of  transportation  small  congrega- 
tions in  rural  sections  distant  from  headquarters  have  been 
unable  to  use  the  slides ;  in  order  to  accommodate  these  it  is 
our  plan  to  place  lectures  in  the  offices  of  all  of  our  field  sec- 
retaries, and  in  addition  to  urge  slide  itineraries  according  to  a 
scheme  now  ready.  It  is  hoped  these  methods  will  facilitate 
the  usefulness  of  the  slides  and  increase  financial  returns  from 
them. 

It  is  necessary  these  days  for  our  Mission  Boards  to  cope 
with  the  interesting  printed  matter  in  attractive  type  freely 
distributed  on  all  phases  of  secular  concern.  Some  of  our  lead- 
ing church  workers  have  kindly  advised  us  what  sort  of  home 
mission  literature  is  acceptable  to  their  members,  and  it  is  the 
desire  and  aim  of  this  department  to  supply  only  readable  mat- 
ter in  such  quantities  as  are  actually  needed.  We  wish  to  com- 
bine a  spirit  of  generosity  with  economy  that  shall  give  good 
service  to  the  churches  and  at  the  same  time  guard  the  pocket- 
book  of  the  Board. 

Every  Presbyterian  should  annually  receive  information 
regarding  the  needs  and  work  of  home  missions,  and  our 
department — which  is  the  only  base  of  supplies — is  ready  and 
willing  to  furnish  it. 


56  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [l909- 

YOUNG  PEOPLE'S  DEPARTMENT. 

Last  autumn  Mr.  Von  Ogden  Vogt  retired  from  our  Young 
People's  Department,  and  Miss  M.  Josephine  Petrie  again 
became  its  sole  secretary.  We  herewith  present  her  report  of 
the  past  year's  work,  which  has  been  approved  by  our  Board 
of  Home  Missions : 

The  annual  statements  of  the  Young  People's  Department 
show  a  constant  growth  which  cannot  be  tabulated  in  any 
pages  of  statistics,  but  a  department  which  brings  to  the  treas- 
ury over  one  hundred  and  seven  thousand  dollars  from  Sunday 
schools  and  the  various  organizations  of  young  people  must 
be  a  busy  place  every  day  in  the  year.  Mission  bands  and 
young  women's  missionary  societies  are  auxiliary  to  the  Wom- 
an's Board  and  their  offerings,  which  are  a  part  of  the  above 
total,  amounted  this  year  to  $25,911.27,  and  are  designated  for 
mission  school  work.  The  total  contributions  from  all  other 
young  people's  organizations  and  from  Sunday  schools  are 
equally  divided  between  the  Board  and  the  Woman's  Board. 

It  is  not  the  province  of  this  department  to  organize  or 
reorganize  societies  of  young  people,  but  to  guide  those  already 
organized  in  their  study  and  giving  for  the  work  of  home 
missions.  There  are  constant  changes  among  these  organiza- 
tions which  affect  our  work  more  or  less,  according  to  the 
methods  of  leaders. 

The  work  of  the  department  is  varied  and  the  details  innu- 
merable, as  the  record  suggests ;  but  the  relative  importance 
of  these  details  depends  upon  the  view-point  and,  as  last  year 
the  Standing  Committee  of  Home  Missions  referred  only  to 
study  class  work,  we  note  this  first. 

HOME   MISSION   STUDY  CLASSES. 

The  announcement  leaflet  issued  in  the  fall  recommended 
three  books  for  study,  "Aliens  or  x\mericans  ?"  "The  Challenge 
of  the  City"  and  "The  Frontier",  with  "Pioneers"  as  the  junior 
book.  Thanks  are  due  the  Rev.  Willis  L.  Gelston  for  aid  in  the 
distribution  of  these  announcements.  The  department  tries 
to  keep  in  touch  with  each  class  throughout  the  course  of  six 
or  eight  lessons.  Helps  for  leaders,  registration  blanks  and 
report  blanks  have  been  furnished,  and  we  have  felt  indebted 
to  Dr.  Phraner  who  materially  aided  our  study  by  revising  his 
"Centennial  Review"  of  the  Board.  A  copy  of  this  booklet 
was  presented  to  each  class  studying  "The  Frontier".  This 
newest  topic  has  proved  very  popular  and  we  have  more  than 
doubled  the  number  of  study  classes,  most  of  them  organized 
within  the  past  five  months. 

In  reply  to  the  frequent  question,  "Do  you  find  the  study 


1909.  J  BOARD    OF    HOME    MISSIONS.  57 

classes  add  to  the  contributions  for  home  missions?"  we  can 
only  reply,  "The  future  will  demonstrate."  The  reports  from 
classes  are  on  file  and  may  be  inspected.  Recruits  for  mission- 
ary societies  have  been  found  in  encouraging  numbers,  and  in 
several  cities  and  towns  a  mission  among  the  foreign-speaking 
people  has  been  opened  as  a  result  of  the  study  of  "Aliens". 
We  quote  from  one  report  in  regard  to  offerings:  "At  our 
fifth  session  the  class  expressed  a  desire  to  contribute  toward 
the  work  of  which  we  had  studied,  and  at  the  next  meeting 
the  sealed  envelopes  were  opened  and  the  sum  of  thirteen 
dollars  counted."  The  results  of  such  study  can  not  be  com- 
puted in  dollars  and  cents,  but  knowledge  of  the  work  should 
beget  a  spirit  of  service,  and  definite  knowledge  of  the  magni- 
tude of  home  mission  problems  must  develop  a  desire  to  give, 
even  to  the  giving  of  self.  The  literature  department  has  fur- 
nished young  people's  societies  about  five  thousand  copies  of 
the  four  text  books,  and  over  one  thousand  copies  of  "The  Call 
of  the  Waters" ;  also  forty- four  of  the  five  dollar  reference 
libraries. 

SUNDAY  SCHOOLS. 

Although  efiforts  toward  securing  a  more  frequent  and  sys- 
tematic presentation  of  home  missions  in  the  Sunday  schools 
have  been  continued,  no  general  success  can  be  reported.  The 
various  methods  adopted  have  been  given  from  time  to  time 
in  "Notes"  from  this  department  in  The  Assembly  Herald 
and  Home  Mission  Monthly. 

In  September  a  general  letter  signed  by  the  secretaries  of  the 
Sunday-school  departments  of  the  Home  and  Foreign  Boards 
was  sent  to  all  superintendents.  This  letter  announced  the 
available  helps  for  the  presentation  of  the  work  of  missions, 
and  the  special  programs  which  would  be  issued  during  the 
year.  In  these  days  of  much  advertising,  attractive  and  novel 
programs  and  coin  receptacles  are  demanded ;  therefore  a  vast 
amount  of  thought  must  be  given  to  their  preparation,  to  the 
announcements  sent  through  the  mails  and  denominational 
publications,  and  to  the  large  correspondence  which  follows. 
Many  Sunday  schools  take  no  other  offering  for  home  missions 
and  this  constituency  demands  a  special  program,  while  a 
limited  number  of  schools  make  much  of  the  occasion  and  add 
the  special  offering  to  their  regular  gifts  for  the  work.  Never- 
theless the  department  questions  the  wisdom  of  urging  the 
many  special  programs  upon  Sunday-school  superintendents, 
and  would  recommend  that  there  be  some  agreement  between 
the  Boards  in  the  matter  of  advertising. 

Samples  or  announcements  of  the  two  programs  were  sent 
to  the  ten   thousand   Sunday-school    superintendents,   to   the 


58  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [  I909' 

chairmen  of  the  home  mission  committees  in  the  presbyteries, 
and  to  many  others.  As  a  resuh,  under  six  hundred  orders 
were  received  for  each.  Ninety  thousand  copies  of  the 
program  on  the  work  of  the  Indian  Training  School,  Tucson, 
Arizona, — for  Thanksgiving, — were  furnished,  and  seventy- 
five  thousand  for  the  general  work  of  the  Board, — "the  Sab- 
bath nearest  Washington's  birthday". 

Sunday-school  secretaries  have  been  appointed  in  twelve 
presbyterial  societies  whose  duty  it  shall  be  to  keep  informed 
of  all  printed  matter  for  Sunday  schools  and  especially  to  urge 
the  observance  of  the  two  Sabbaths  recommended  by  General 
Assembly  for  the  special  offerings  for  home  missions.  In 
reporting  her  year's  efforts  one  of  the  secretaries  writes:  "We 
have  prayed  every  inch  of  this  advance."  The  cooperation  of 
these  secretaries  and  of  the  field  secretaries  from  the  West  and 
South  has  been  of  special  value  along  this  line.  A  decided 
advance  is  evident  in  the  number  of  missionary  committees 
appointed,  and  in  the  number  of  letters  from  the  chairmen  of 
these  committees  soliciting  special  information  and  definite 
objects  for  their  gifts. 

This  is  the  department  of  our  church  life  where  sowing 
seeds  of  systematic  and  proportionate  ghnng  and  sending 
should  bear  the  richest  fruit  in  future  years. 

The  first  report  of  the  present  secretary  of  this  department 
(1898-99)  gave  from  Sunday  schools  $36,146.46.  The  total 
this  year  is  $47,845.30. 

OTHER  PROGRAMS. 

The  programs  for  Christian  Endeavor  Societies  have  been 
more  popular  than  ever,  and  the  mailing  list  of  regular  sub- 
scribers is  always  increasing.  Editions  of  from  seven  to  ten 
thousand  have  been  furnished  on  the  following  topics :  "Alaska 
for  Christ",  "The  Home  Mission  Schoolhouse  and  What  it 
Does",  "The  Cry  of  the  City",  "A  Million  a  Year:  Our  Immi- 
grants", "Present  Day  Pioneers" ;  also  a  list  of  good  home  mis- 
sion books  for  the  March  meeting.  It  is  interesting  to  note 
that  leaders  of  meetings  are  depending  less  on  the  full  helps 
from  us.  asking  rather  for  suggestions  which  they  may  develop. 

MORE  PRINTED  MATTER. 

Our  Field  Letters  hold  a  place  of  their  own,  and  the  mailing 
lists  include  addresses  of  secretaries  of  other  denominational 
Boards  who  have  asked  for  the  full  file  of  each  edition  of  let- 
ters and  programs.  All  contributors  are  sent  copies  of  the 
letter  reporting  the  work  in  the  field  for  which  their  oflFering  is 
designated,  many  copies  are  sent  for  distribution  by  the  pres- 


1909.]  BOARD    OF    HOME    MISSIONS.  59 

byterial  secretaries,  and  many  used  by  leaders  of  young  people's 
societies  and  Sunday  schools  for  their  current  mission  news. 
These  printed  letters  to  the  number  of  thirty  thousand  were 
furnished  this  year  from  the  Alaskan,  Indian,  New  Mexican, 
Mormon,  Mountain  and  Porto  Rican  fields ;  and,  in  addition, 
over  five  thousand  duplicated  letters  from  missionaries  sup- 
ported by  local  or  small  groups  of  societies.  Thousands  of  let- 
ters of  a  personal  character  have  been  duplicated  and  sent  out 
to  secretaries,  study  class  leaders,  and  others. 

CONFERENCES  AND  RALLIES. 

Gatherings  of  the  young  people  during  July  and  August  are 
growing  in  number,  and  many  "institutes"  are  held  in  the  large 
cities  during  the  winter  months.  These  conferences  are  for 
the  purpose  of  developing  missionary  leaders  in  young  people's 
societies  and  Sunday  schools.  Thousands  of  the  announce- 
ments issued  by  Mr.  Gelston  for  the  Presbyterian  conferences 
and  by  the  Young  People's  Missionary  Movement  for  the  gen- 
eral conferences  in  the  East,  West,  and  South,  have  been  sent 
by  this  department  to  our  constituency,  and  also  many  personal 
invitations.  Study  class  teachers  have  been  supplied,  speakers 
furnished  and  attendance  in  person  whenever  possible.  Liter- 
ature has  also  been  furnished  in  quantity  and  for  exhibition. 
All  Presbyterian  delegates  have  heard  from  this  department 
several  times  during  the  year.  In  short,  all  known  opportuni- 
ties for  correspondence  or  personal  contact  with  our  Presby- 
terian young  people  have  been  used. 

FRATERNAL    RELATIONS. 

The  spirit  of  cooperation  between  this  department,  the  Edu- 
cational and  Sunday-school  departments  of  the  Foreign  Board, 
and  the  Young  People's  Department  in  the  Board  of  Publica- 
tion and  Sabbath-School  Work  has  always  been  most  cordial. 
Announcements  of  various  kinds  have  been  sent  jointly  in  the 
effort  to  avoid  confusion  in  the  minds  of  our  young  people, 
while  definitely  instructing  them  as  to  where  they  should  apply 
for  aid  in  their  missionary  work.  Our  relations  with  the 
Young  People's  Missionary  Movement  have  also  been  of 
mutual  benefit,  and  the  correspondence  with  young  people's 
secretaries  of  other  denominational  Boards  has  increased  con- 
siderably. 

CONTRIBUTIONS. 

For  the  last  six  months  a  large  falling  off  in  receipts  from 
Sunday  schools  and  young  people's  societies  has  seemed  inevit- 
able, due  to  three  causes.  The  first  two  mean  no  diminution 
in  home  mission  interest  and  gifts,  and  the  "objects"  are  those 


6o  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [  ^909' 

recommended  by  the  Board,  (i)  Synodical  self-support  has, 
in  a  number  of  synods,  called  for  the  contributions  we  have 
heretofore  reported. 

(2)  The  growing  work  among  foreign-speaking  people,  for 
which  funds  are  administered  locally.  We  recognize  the  local 
needs,  but  as  the  Board  has  assumed  heavy  responsibilities  for 
this  work,  and  commissions  workers  in  response  to  requests 
from  presbyteries  as  fast  as  the  money  is  provided  and  the 
worker  can  be  found,  we  long  for  the  cooperation  of  our  young 
people  which  has  always  been  so  dependable.  Much  of  the  old 
work  must  be  continued,  and  a  sudden  withdrawal  or  change 
of- pledges  after  the  appropriations  of  the  year  have  been  made, 
seriously  cripples  the  work,  and  this  could  not  be  anticipated  at 
the  beginning  of  the  year. 

(3)  The  third  cause  is  a  grave  one,  and  for  this  we  need  the 
cooperation  of  pastors  as  far  as  it  comes  within  our  sphere.  In 
several  of  the  presbyteries  we  have  been  notified  that  pledges 
made  by  the  junior  and  senior  Christian  Endeavor  Societies 
for  the  support  of  Christian  Endeavor  district,  state  and  for- 
eign field  secretaries  have  been  to  the  limit  of  their  ability  to 
give.  The  officers  of  the  United  Society  of  Christian  Endeavor 
have  always  urged  loyalty  to  the  denominational  work  and 
would  not  encourage  the  system.  The  reports  for  this  year 
warrant  another  reference  to  these  facts.  The  offerings  from* 
several  societies  have  been  sent  to  the  Boards  of  other  denom- 
inations at  the  direction  of  "new  pastors".  We  would  again 
sound  a  loud  call  for  loyalty  first  to  the  denominational  obliga- 
tions. It  can  not  be  expected  that  our  financial  report  will 
increase  if  the  interest  of  the  young  people  is  diverted  from 
the  regular  work  of  the  Boards. 

Returning  to  the  report  of  1898-99  we  find  $45  106.47  the 
contributions  from  all  young  people's  organizations.  The 
record  for  this  year  stands  $58,568.65. 

SPECIAL    OBJECTS. 

The  average  contribution  from  each  society  is  small — prob- 
ably about  five  dollars  from  the  Christian  Endeavor  and  other 
young  people's  societies,  and  a  smaller  percentage  from  the 
children's  organizations,  and  maintaining  these  pledges  for  the 
regular  work  requires  careful  nurturing.  All  theories  to  the 
contrary,  the  most  satisfactory  method  has  proved  to  be  the 
"special  object" — a  field,  station,  salary  of  a  missionary,  schol- 
arship, or  shares  in  the  medical  work  or  general  work  of  a  mis- 
sion school.  Through  this  method  a  number  of  young  peo- 
ple's societies  can  be  grouped,  dividing  the  amount  required 
into  shares  sufficient  to  cover  it  and  proportionate  to  the  mem- 
bership. 


1909.1  BOARD    OF    HOME    MISSIONS.  61 

Pledges  for  the  specific  work  are  secured  by  the  presbyterial 
young  people's  secretary  who  reports  to  this  office ;  then  defi- 
nite information  along  the  line  of  letters,  leaflets,  and  so  forth 
is  furnished  regularly  from  the  department  to  the  contributor, 
except  in  a  few  presbyteries  where  the  young  people's  secretary 
chooses  to  distribute  the  material.  About  the  same  number  of 
salaries  have  been  provided  this  year  as  last, — thirty-five  sal- 
aries of  missionary  pastors  and  teachers, — and  the  number  of 
scholarships  and  shares  remains  about  the  same.  Scholarship 
letters  are  furnished  by  the  Associate  Secretary  of  the  Wom- 
an's Board  to  all  scholarship  holders. 

Junior  societies  have  shown  a  marked  advance  in  enthusiasm 
and  gifts  for  their  "special" — the  children's  ward  of  our  hos- 
pital in  Porto  Rico — and  more  intermediates  are  heard  from 
with  gifts  for  their  own  missionary.  While  not  increasing 
numerically,  these  children's  organizations  are  assuming  larger 
obligations  for  our  work,  and  their  enthusiasm  should  be  con- 
tagious. 

YOUNG  people's  SECRETARIES. 

The  faithful  service  of  the  new  synodical  secretaries  has 
strengthened  the  work  of  the  year.  In  addition  to  the  repre- 
sentatives from  Alabama,  Arkansas  and  Mississippi,  we  have 
welcomed  seven  new  synodical  secretaries  and  many  in  the 
presbyteries,  making  a  total  of  three  hundred.  Every  pres- 
byterial in  Texas  has  elected  a  young  people's  secretary,  and  a 
number  of  others  have  been  added  to  the  list  because  of  the 
rearrangement  or  addition  of  former  Cumberland  presbyteries. 
Of  the  number  twenty-two  are  for  juniors,  or  juniors  and 
bands,  and  twelve  for  Svmday  schools.  The  partnership  with 
this  consecrated  company  of  young  women  is  invaluable. 
Through  their  intimate  acquaintance  with  their  constituency 
and  close  touch  with  this  office,  the  secretary  can  practically 
feel  the  pulse  of  each  local  organization. 

Another  chapter  of  our  history  is  ended,  and  already  the 
pages  are  opened  for  a  new  record.  We  again  plead  for  the 
earnest  cooperation  of  pastars,  parents  and  all  Christian  work- 
ers in  this  campaign  for  the  loyalty  of  our  Presbyterian  young 
people  to  the  cause  of  home  missions. 
Respectfully  submitted, 

M.  Josephine  Petrie, 

Secretary. 
WOMAN'S  BOARD. 

The  following  report  from  the  Woman's  Board  has  been 
received  and  approved : 

In  presenting  the  thirtieth  annual  report  of  the  Woman's 
Board  of  Home  Missions  much  must  be  left  unsaid,  because 


62  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [  IQOQ- 

much  of  the  effort  put  forth  in  gathering  funds  is  volunteer 
service  on  the  part  of  the  individual  workers,  too  modest  to 
tell  of  their  work,  but  without  which  the  Board  itself  would 
not  exist.  The  same  is  true  of  the  efforts  of  individual  mis- 
sionaries whose  lives  are  made  up  not  of  the  great  things  done 
in  Christ's  name,  but  of  every  day  living  in  His  name,  and  who 
by  their  ministry  to  the  poor,  the  deluded,  the  sin  sick,  and 
the  ignorant,  are  building  for  eternity. 

The  report,  however,  naturally  divides  itself  into  three  parts, 
namely,  the  organization,  the  administration,  and  the  field. 

For  more  than  twenty-five  years  the  dominating  force  in  all 
three  of  these  departments  has  been  our  beloved  president,  Mrs. 
Darwin  R.  James.  Filled  with  the  spirit  of  true  patriotism, 
.she  has  led  Presbyterian  women  in  their  home  mission  work, 
with  a  deep  conviction  that  the  specific  work  assigned  these 
women  was  vital  to  the  evangelization  of  America.  Her  sym- 
pathies have  been  broad,  her  convictions  deep,  her  outlook  far- 
reaching.  She  withdrew  from  active  work  in  the  middle  of  the 
year,  because  she  felt  she  could  no  longer  bear  the  heavy  bur- 
den of  leadership.  We  miss  her  but  rejoice  that  she  has  given 
so  many  years  of  service  for  the  Master,  and  recognize  that 
the  women  of  the  Church  are  so  thoroughly  organized  in  the 
thirty-three  synodical  societies  that  the  responsibility  for  the 
organization  can  now  be   shared. 

Mrs.  Fred  Smith  Bennett,  who  had  served  the  Board  as 
young  people's  secretary,  and  later  as  vice-president  from  New 
Jersey,  was  appointed  acting  president. 

The  work  will  continue  with  increasing  efficiency,  because  the 
women  of  the  Church  see  the  need  for  their  work,  feel  their 
responsibility,  and  count  their  service  a  joyous  one. 

THE   ORGANIZATION. 

Many  new  women's  societies  have  been  organized  during 
the  year,  but  perhaps  none  have  shown  a  greater  earnestness 
than  those  among  the  Choctaw  churches  in  Oklahoma,  where 
there  are  four  new  societies.  Everywhere  there  is  a  desire  to 
know  about  the  work,  and  then  in  a  systematic  way  to  gather 
the  funds. 

To  this  end  societies  have  assumed  special  objects  in  the  way 
of  teachers'  salaries,  scholarships,  shares  in  the  school  or  hos- 
pital work,  and  in  building  and  repair  funds,  while  all  have 
been  urged  to  contribute  to  the  general  fund  from  which  all 
emergencies  and  deficiencies  must  be  provided. 

The  Westminster  Guild,  through  its  one  hundred  eighty-six 
chapters,  and  fourteen  circles,  contributes  to  the  support  of  the 
hospital  for  natives  at  Haines,  Alaska.  These  young  women 
have  three  courses  of  study  each  year,  one  on  home  missions, 


1909-]  BOARD    OF    TTO^rE    MISSIONS.  63 

one  on  foreign  missions,  and  one  on  the  Bible.  Their  gifts, 
which  are  gathered  through  the  chapters  assuming  a  number  of 
shares  at  two  dollars  each,  are  divided  equally  between  home 
and  foreign  missions. 

The  special  object  for  mission  bands  is  the  support  of  the 
Industrial  Training  School  at  Sitka,  Alaska.  The  number  of 
bands  enrolled  is  seven  hundred  eleven. 

The  Cradle  Roll  Tens  are  a  new  effort  to  secure  the  gift  of 
ten  cents  each  in  behalf  of  the  little  people  under  six  years  of 
age,  arranged  in  groups  of  ten.  Nearly  one  hundred  such 
groups  have  been  reported  to  us,  and  their  money  is  to  be  used 
for  the  support  of  kindergarten  work  among  the  children  of 
foreign-speaking  people. 

The  Sunday  before  Thanksgiving,  the  day  set  apart  on  which 
the  mission  school  work  shall  be  presented  in  the  Sabbath 
schools,  was  observed  by  an  increasing  number  of  schools.  The 
special  object  for  the  school  work  among  the  Pima  and  Papago 
Indians  at  Tucson  was  deservedly  poular. 

Our  field  secretaries.  Miss  Julia  Eraser  and  Miss  Edith 
Hughes  have  been  in  the  field  constantly,  and  no  efforts  on  their 
part  have  been  spared  to  organize,  educate  and  stimulate  socie- 
ties. 

Mrs.  Flora  D.  Palmer  presented  her  resignation  as  field  sec- 
retary early  in  the  year,  but  she  is  ever  ready  to  respond  to  calls 
for  special  work,  and  has  assisted  in  the  presbyterial  meet- 
ings. 

Miss  Hays,  Miss  Newcomb  and  Miss  Jackson  have  pre- 
sented the  work  in  many  places  from  the  standpoint  of  mission- 
aries, and  Mrs.  M.  B.  Lee,  Mrs.  D.  E.  Diefenderfer,  and  Miss 
V.  May  White  have  rendered  efficient  service  at  presbyterial 
meetings  and  in  auxiliary  societies. 

Study  classes.  The  topic,  the  frontier,  recommended  for 
home  mission  study  classes  this  year  has  been  an  especially 
strong  one,  and  there  has  been  a  decided  increase  in  the  num- 
ber of  study  classes.  The  book  generally  used  by  women's 
societies  was  "The  Call  of  the  Waters",  by  Miss  Katharine  R. 
Crowell,  while  the  children  have  studie'd  "The  Pioneers",  by 
the  same  author.  The  theme  deals  with  pioneer  efforts  to  make 
America  a  Christian  nation,  and  the  need  for  continued  effort 
becomes  apparent  as  the  frontier,  having  reached  the  Pacific 
Coast,  comes  eastward  through  the  exceptional  peoples,  through 
new  communities  made  possible  by  the  opening  up  of  Indian 
reservations,  through  the  vast  desert  made  inhabitable  by  vari- 
ous irrigation  projects,  and  through  the  South  and  Southwest 
where  trainload  after  trainload  of  people  are  seeking  new 
homes.  But  this  is  not  all !  The  growth  of  cities,  the  prob- 
lem of  assimilating  the  great  mass  of  foreigners,  all  these  and 
more  are  spheres  for  home  mission  endeavor,  and  the  study 


64  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [  IQOQ- 

class  will  help  the  people  to  see  it.  As  the  theme  and  text- 
book are  both  interdenominational,  the  result  will  be  united 
effort. 

The  Council  of  Women  for  Home  Missions.  In  December 
the  Council  of  Women  for  Home  Missions  was  organized,  in 
which   nine  women's    Boards   are  united. 

The  object  of  the  organization  is  to  secure  cooperation  along 
the  following  lines : 

1st.  Home  mission  summer  conferences. 

2nd.  Home  mission  study  classes  in  schools  and  colleges,  and 

in  conferences  other  than  those  arranged  by  women's 

missionary  societies. 
3rd.  Interdenominational  textbooks  for  home  mission  study 

classes. 
4th.  Interdenominational  day  of  prayer. 
5th.   Interdenominational  literature. 
6th.  Cooperation  at  home. 
7th.  Comity  on  the  field. 

Already  this  organization  is  bearing  fruit,  and  home  mis- 
sions will  have  a  more  definite  part  in  all  summer  conferences, 
and  in  college  work  through  the  assistance  of  the  Young 
Women's  Christian  Associations.  A  beginning  is  made  in 
home  mission  literature  by  issuing  "Home  Mission  Handi- 
craft", a  series  of  ten  "Ideas  for  Work  and  Play  for  Mission 
Bands  and  Juniors." 

THE  ADMINISTRATION. 

The  administration  is  vested  in  such  vice-presidents  as  reside 
in  New  York  City  and  vicinity,  together  with  the  Advisory 
Committee,  an  elected  body  of  representative  women  and  the 
executive  officers.  Regular  meetings  are  held  on  the  first  and 
third  Tuesdays,  and  the  Ways  and  Means  Committee  on  the 
second  and  fourth  Tuesdays  of  each  month,  except  in  July  and 
August.  f 

Some  idea  of  the  amount  of  business  transacted  can  be 
gained  from  the  fact  that  nearly  five  hundred  separate  motions, 
in  addition  to  the  work  planned  at  the  spring  conference,  came 
up  for  consideration.  After  having  been  acted  upon  by  the 
Woman's  Board,  all  items  dealing  with  the  expenditure  of 
money,  or  matters  of  policy  in  the  school  work,  are  subject  to 
the  approval  of  the  Board  of  Home  Missions. 

Special  items.  "Equal  quarterly  payments  in  whole  dollars 
for  pledged  work"  has  been  emphasized  throughout  the  year, 
with  the  end  in  view  of  equalizing  more  nearly  the  receipts  of 
the  four  quarters,  and  so  relieving  the  Board  of  the  necessity 


1909.]  BOARD    OF    HOME    MISSIONS.  65 

of  borrowing  money  to  pay  the  missionaries  promptly  each 
month.  The  efforts  have  produced  gratifying  results,  but  will 
be  still  further  emphasized  the  coming  year. 

General  fund.  Because  of  increased  expenses  on  the  field, 
particularly  in  the  boarding  schools,  a  special  appeal  was  sent 
to  auxiliary  societies  late  in  the  year  asking  for  a  special  contri- 
bution to  the  general  fund.  Because  of  this  appeal,  and  of  the 
fact  that  societies  consider  the  gift  of  one  year  the  pledge  of 
the  next,  we  are  able  to  report  an  advance  in  receipts  even 
in  a  year  of  financial  stress. 

Boxes.  Societies  have  supplied  Christmas  gifts,  or  money 
for  a  Christmas  treat,  for  the  children  in  all  our  mission 
schools,  and  boxes  of  clothing  for  the  pupils,  as  well  as  needed 
supplies  in  the  way  of  bedding,  linen,  rag  carpets,  and  so  forth, 
for  teachers'  homes  and  boarding  schools.  No  appeal  is  made 
for  second  hand  clothing,  except  in  a  few  instances,  and  no 
credit  is  given  for  money  expended  either  for  freight  or 
material. 

They  have  also  supplemented  the  salaries  of  home  mission- 
aries by  gifts  of  boxes  and  household  supplies.  In  a  few  cases 
money  has  been  sent  in  lieu  of  boxes,  and  has  proven  a  great 
help.  Here,  again,  no  credit  on  the  books  of  either  the  Board 
or  the  Woman's  Board  is  given  for  money  expended  on  freight 
or  material.  Gifts  in  money,  for  missionaries,  are  credited 
only  as  special  donations. 

Literature.  The  Literature  Department  has  had  a  year  of 
unusual  prosperity.  The  growth  in  study  classes  has  increased 
the  sale  of  textbooks  and  helps,  while  there  has  been  a  constant 
demand  for  leaflets  concerning  both  the  field  and  the  organiza- 
tion. The  Prayer  Calendar  has  found  unusual  favor.  Thirty 
new  leaflets  and  twenty-five  reprints  have  been  issued,  and  the 
number  of  pages  printed  was  3,347.700.  As  the  literature  of 
the  Woman's  Board  is  nearly  all  sold  at  cost,  and  much  of  it 
consists  of  leaflets  which  sell  at  from  one  to  five  cents  each, 
our  receipts  of  $6,021.85  show  something  of  the  volume  of 
business. 

HOME    MISSION    MONTHLY. 

The  Home  Mission  Monthly  has  continued  the  medium  by 
which  those  who  contribute  to  the  w^ork  have  been  kept  in 
touch  with  the  work  on  the  field  through  the  topic  of  the 
month,  and  whereby  messages  from  the  office  have  gone  to 
the  constituency   at  home. 

Notwithstanding  the  financial  depression,  which  has  affected 
many  papers,  we  again  report  an  increase  in  the  subscription 
list.  The  editor  so  carefully  looks  after  the  details  of  publish- 
ing that  nearly  every  year  a  goodly  sum  has  been  contributed 


66  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [  I909- 

to  the  general  work.  This  year  has  been  an  exception  in  this 
respect,  however,  but,  although  no  money  has  been  passed  into 
the  treasury,  the  nucleus  of  a  fund  is  in  hand  with  which  it  is 
proposed  next  year  to  erect  one  of  the  new  buildings  at  Sitka. 
Over  Sea  and  Land  does  not  show  a  gain  in  subscriptions, 
but  is  meeting  a  need  in  helping  to  educate  the  children  of  the 
Church. 

THE   FIELD. 

But  the  work  of  our  organization  is  simply  that  funds  may 
be  gathered  to  support  the  missionary  school  work  that  has 
been  committed  to  the  women  of  the  Church.  To  this  end 
meetings  are  planned,  sacrifices  of  time  and  money  are  made, 
literature  is  used,  gifts  are  gathered.  It  would  be  impossible 
to  tell  of  all  our  mission  stations  which  are  reported  in  detail 
by  the  Rev.  Robert  M.  Craig,  superintendent  of  the  School 
Department,  but  we  call  attention  to  some  matters  of  import- 
ance on  each  field. 

In  the  Alaskan  field  we  have  continued  to  pay  the  salaries  of 
the  ministers  in  Southeastern  Alaska,  and  of  the  missionary 
physician  at  Point  Barrow.  The  visits  of  Mr.  Craig  and  Miss 
Fraser,  the  field  secretary  of  the  Woman's  Board  for  the  Pacific 
Coast,  have  made  clear  to  all  the  necessity  of  providing  better 
equipment  for  the  Industrial  and  Training  School  at  Sitka.  It 
is  not  just  to  subject  missionary  workers  to  undue  risks  on 
account  of  poor  buildings,  neither  can  the  best  work  be  done 
for  the  children  with  inadequate  equipment.  Accordingly,  it  is 
proposed  when  the  money  is  secured  to  erect  new  buildings, 
plain  but  substantial,  and  so  continue  this  work  which  has 
already  done  so  much  for  the  younger  generation  but  with  such 
equipment  as  will  render  more  fruitful  the  efforts  put  forth. 

Among  the  Indians  we  have  twenty-one  stations.  The  work 
has  continued  with  few  changes.  The  new  buildings  for  the 
Industrial  and  Training  School  for  Pima  and  Papago  Indians 
at  Tucson,  Arizona,  have  been  completed,  and  were  formally 
dedicated  February  sixteenth.  The  work  among  the  Digger 
Indians  formerly  located  at  Fall  River  Mills,  in  California,  has 
been  transferred  to  McArthur  about  ten  miles  away.  Sufficient 
money  has  been  contributed  or  pledged  to  begin  work  among 
the  Duck  Valley  Indians  in  Idaho.  Some  changes  in  the  per- 
sonnel of  the  workers  have  made  new  problems,  but  all  this 
Indian  work  is  helping  to  make  Christian  Indians,  who  in  turn 
make  good  citizens. 

In  the  New  Mexican  field  there  are  three  boarding  schools 
and  twenty  plaza  schools.  No  new  stations  have  been 
opened,  but  the  Mary  E.  James  School  for  Mexican  boys  has 
double  the  attendance  it  had  last  year,  and  it — with  the  Allison 


1909-]  BOARD    OF    HOME    MISSIONS.  67 

School,  under  one  management,  at  Santa  Fe — will  prove  a 
force  for  righteousness.  At  the  last  communion  twelve  boys 
and  girls,  all  pupils,  confessed  Christ. 

There  has  been  much  sickness  in  the  Menaul  School  at 
Albuquerque  this  year,  but  the  superintendent,  matrons  and 
teachers  have  stood  nobly  by  the  work.  As  the  result  of  special 
services  and  personal  work,  fifteen  students  have  united  with 
the  church. 

In  the  Moniioi  field  new  problems  are  arising.  The  mission 
day  schools  have  without  doubt  been  instrumental  in  raising  a 
standard  which  has  led  to  the  establishment  of  a  good  public 
school  system  in  many  towns.  Good  buildings  have  been 
erected,  and  where  such  schools  are  carried  on  with  efficient 
teachers,  and  where  the  church  work  is  provided  for  by  a  resi- 
dent pastor,  it  is  possible  to  close  the  mission  day  schools,  with 
the  hope  of  opening  new  work  in  fields  where  there  are  no 
good  public  schools,  and  where  the  evangelistic  work  is  not 
cared  for.  Accordingly  the  schools  at  Hyrum,  Smithfield  and 
Parowan  have  been  closed  and  the  teachers  transferred  to 
other  points.  Panguitch,  Perron  and  Fairview  have  each  been 
strengthened  by  an  additional  teacher. 

We  have  four  academies  in  Utah,  and  these  are  the  only 
secondary  schools  in  the  state  having  dormitories ;  they  are 
increasingly  important.  A  new  dormit-ory  was  completed  at 
New  Jersey  Academy  at  Logan  during  the  year  and  the  funds 
are  in  hand  for  the  erection  of  a  new  dormitory  for  Wasatch 
Academy,  at  Mt.  Pleasant.  Enlargement,  with  provision  for  a 
larger  number  of  boys,  is  the  great  need  in  this  field. 

In  the  Mountain  field  there  are  ten  boarding  schools,  three 
academies,  twenty-four  day-schools,  eleven  Bible  readers'  sta- 
tions, and  we  pay  the  salaries  of  four  ministers.  There  are 
large  opportunities  for  service.  Our  school  at  Marshall,  North 
Carolina,  with  the  exception  of  the  kindergarten  work,  has 
been  discontinued  but  the  people  are  supporting  a  public  school. 
Pease  House,  the  little  girls'  home  in  connection  with  the  Ashe- 
ville  schools,  has  been  opened  and  not  only  provides  for  the 
little  girls,  many  of  them  orphans,  who  could  not  be  accommo- 
dated in  the  Home  Industrial,  but  furnishes  a  model  school  for 
the  Training  Department  of  the  Normal  and  Collegiate  Insti- 
tute. Mossop  Memorial  School,  Huntsville,  Tennessee, 
through  the  generosity  of  Mrs.  Butler,  now  accommodates 
thirty  girls,  and  every  pupil  in  the  school  has  made  a  public 
confession  of  faith.  Brown  Memorial  School,  Mt.  Vernon, 
Kentucky,  under  new  management,  takes  front  rank  as  an  edu- 
cational institution,  and  Langdon  Home  gives  Christian  home 
training  to  eighteen  girls. 

No  new  schools  have  been  opened,  but  the  value  of  all  the 
school  work  is  greatly  appreciated. 


68  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [  1909- 

A  unique  feature  of  the  mountain  worlv  is  that  in  connec- 
tion with  nearly  every  station  there  is  a  woman's  missionary 
society  and  a  mission  band,  eacli  helping  to  support  the  regular 
work  of  the  Woman's  Board. 

Work  will  be  begun  at  Gladstone,  Missouri,  in  the  Ozark 
Mountains,  April  i,  1909,  by  the  appointment  of  two  Bible 
readers. 

In  Cuba  there  are  four  schools.  The  school  in  Havana  has 
been  strengthened  by  the  addition  of  a  second  American 
teacher,  and  two  native  teachers. 

Funds  are  in  hand  for  the  erection  of  a  school  building  and 
teachers'  home  at  Giiines,  Cuba.  The  summer  offering  of 
1908  was  sufficient  to  purchase  the  land,  while  Pennsylvania 
Synodical  Society  furnished  the  money  for  the  building  as  a 
twenty-fifth  anniversary  offering.  It  will  be  known  as  the 
"Kate  P.  Bryan  Memorial". 

In  Porto  Rico  we  have  six  schools,  and  the  hospital  at  San 
Juan.  The  new  school  at  San  German,  taught  by  a  Porto 
Rican  teacher,  is  meeting  a  need. 

The  Presbyterian  Hospital  is  doing  a  great  work  in  minister- 
ing to  the  Porto  Ricans,  both  rich  and  poor,  for  there  are  pay 
patients  as  well  as  charity,  and  to  Americans  as  well,  who  need 
hospital  care. 

In  the  work  among  foreign-speaking  people  there  has  been 
some  advance,  but  not  so  much  as  the  needs  warrant.  Money 
not  only  is  necessary  for  this  work,  but  it  is  impossible  to  find 
the  kind  of  missionary  workers  required. 

A  national  missionary  training  school,  with  departments 
where  both  American  and  foreign  workers  may  be  trained  for 
Christian  work  among  foreign-speaking  people,  is  our  greatest 
need. 

Bible  readers  have  been  commissioned  among  the  Italians 
in  New  York  City  and  Brooklyn;  in  Jersey  City  and  Mont- 
clair.  New  Jersey ;  Denver,  Colorado ;  Bristol,  Pennsylvania ; 
and  a  worker  among  the  Slavs  in  Kansas  City,  Kansas,  in 
addition  to  those  listed  last  year.  With  the  beginning  of  the 
year,  April  i,  1909,  the  Woman's  Board  will  appropriate  for 
work  among  foreign-speaking  people  an  amount  equal  to  five 
per  cent,  of  what  it  receives  from  women's  societies. 

Freedmen's  work.  In  addition  to  the  regular  work  there  are 
supported  in  whole  or  in  part  among  the  Freedmen,  by  means 
of  funds  contributed  by  women's  societies,  but  administered 
through  the  Board  for  Freedmen,  seventy-five  teachers  in 
boarding  schools,  sixteen  teachers  in  academies,  and  forty-five 
teachers  in  parochial  schools.

SUMMARY. 

In  all  the  schools  of  the  Woman's  Board  the  Bible  is  used 
as  a  textbook.  Memory  work,  and  daily  recitations,  with  texts, 
are  a  part  of  the  regular  program.  In  the  boarding  schools  the 
girls  are  taught  practical  industrial  work,  as  cooking,  sewing, 
and  general  housekeeping.  The  boys  assist  with  the  house 
work  in  boys'  schools,  and  in  addition  are  taught  farming,  car- 
pentry and  other  industries.  Both  boys  and  girls  are  taught 
the  elements  of  hygiene  in  connection  with  physiology. 

The  importance  of  Christian  living  is  emphasized,  and  in 
many  of  the  schools  special  evangelistic  services  have  been  held, 
with  the  result  that  many  have  begun  the  Christian  life.  The 
influence  of  these  schools  is  far-reaching,  entering  the  homes 
and  transforming  communities. 

Presbyterian  women  have  reason  to  thank  God  for  the  oppor- 
tunities for  service  given  through  the  work  done  by  our  home 
mission  teachers,  and  count  it  all  seed  sowing  in  the  Master's 
name.

RECEIPTS    AND    EXPENDITURES. 

Our  total  receipts  from  all  sources,  exclusive  of  $75,076.63 
collected  for  and  remitted  to  the  Freedmen's  Board,  and  inclu- 
sive of  amounts  contributed  for  Permanent  and  Annuity  funds, 
etc.,  were  $465,136.14. 


yO  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [l909- 

Our  receipts  available  for  current  work  were  $427,036.99; 
while  on  the  other  hand  our  expenses,  inclusive  of  $18,913.65 
paid  missionaries  of  the  Board  of  Home  Missions,  were  $460,- 
206.38,  leaving  a  deficit  on  current  work  account  of  $33,169.39. 
While  there  was  a  slight  advance  in  receipts  over  last  year, 
they  did  not  keep  pace  with  expenditures  on  the  field. 
The  increasing  response  to  the  need  for  work  among 
foreign-speaking  people,  and  the  claims  of  special  build- 
ing funds  have,  in  some  cases,  lessened  the  con- 
tributions for  the  regular  work.  The  pressure  brought  to  bear 
upon  young  people's  societies  to  support  synodical  work  had 
resulted  in  some  unfulfilled  pledges.  The  division  of  Sunday- 
school  money  has  served  to  diminish  receipts  available  for  cur- 
rent work.  Expenditures  have  been  increased  by  a  slight 
advance  in  the  salaries  of  the  teachers  in  some  of  the  day- 
schools,  changes  in  other  teachers,  making  increased  traveling 
expenses  and  increased  cost  of  maintenance  of  boarding 
schools,  and  in  some  unusual  repairs. 

The  deficit  of  $33,169.39  is  assumed  by  the  Woman's  Board 
and  special  effort  will  be  made  to  secure  funds  to  cancel  the 
debt  before  July,  1909. 

Such  is  the  record  of  the  year  in  dollars  and  cents,  but  no 
words  can  record  the  measure  of  sacrifice  in  time  and  money 
that  has  made  this  aggregate  of  money  possible,  neither  can 
words  record  the  faithful  service  of  the  missionaries  on  the 
field,  or  measure  the  harvest  of  their  seed  sowing. 

In  God's  name  the  work  was  done,  in  His  name  the  seed  was 
sown,  and  His  be  the  glory. 

Respectfully  submitted, 

Ella  A.  Boole, 

Secretary. 

CONCLUSION. 

Closing  this  review  of  the  year's  work  the  following  observa- 
tions  are   pertinent.      1 

First.  The  sphere  of  our  service  is  wider  and  more  varied 
year  by  year.  No  longer  merely  a  question  of  new  stations  to 
be  opened  and  new  churches  established, — it  is  the  work  of 
Christianizing  our  civilization ;  it  is  to  help  to  solve  racial 
and  social  problems  introduced  by  our  immense  foreign  immi- 
gration :  to  help  to  further  economic  relations  and  to  improve 
social  and  moral  conditions ;  to  advance  Christian  education 
where  the  lack  of  it  threatens  the  morals  of  new  and  old  com- 
munities ;  to  recover  and  prove  again  the  power  of  direct 
evangelism  which  in  every  age  has  been  the  life  of  the  Church ; 
and  generally  to  \ry  to  meet  every  new  phase  of  danger  to  the 


1909.1  BOARD    OF    HOME    MISSIONS.  7I 

higher  Hfe  of  the  nation  with  means  adapted  to  its  social,  moral 
and   rehgious  uplifting. 

Second.  This  expansion  of  home  mission  obHgations  opens 
ever  new  and  vast  possibihties.  What  if  we  could  reach  our 
foreigners  by  effective  educational  and  evangelizing  agencies? 
What  if  we  could  really  carry  the  social  message  of  Jesus  and 
the  spiritual  appeal  of  Jesus  into  every  workshop?  What  if  we 
could  kindle  revival  fires  in  every  Presbytery — in  every  commu- 
nity? What  if  we  had  leadership  to  arrest  the  tendencies  to  the 
worship  of  mammon  in  our  cities,  and  to  carry  higher  ideals  of 
life  and  old-fashioned  standards  of  family  religion  into  careless 
and  godless  rural  communities?  What,  in  a  word,  if  we  could 
meet  every  foe  of  truth  and  goodness  with  that  gospel  which 
in  its  varied  adaptations  is  the  power  of  God? 

Third.  But  for  a  work  so  varied  and  complex,  and  beck- 
oning with  such  inspiring  possibilities  our  resources  of  men 
and  money  are  wholly  inadequate.  The  Church  of  Christ  is 
asleep  to  her  greatest  national  opportunity.  She  does  not  meas- 
ure the  signs  of  the  times.  She  has  not  sounded  the  depths 
of  the  phrase,  "America  for  Christ."  If  she  had,  her  young 
men  would  be  girding  for  the  conflict.  If  she  had,  money 
would  flow  like  water.  When  the  nation  was  in  peril  of  its 
unity,  life  and  treasure  were  cheap.  When  the  higher  life  of 
the  people  is  in  danger  and  so  the  stability  of  all  our  institu- 
tions, should  the  spirit  of  sacrifice  be  less  prompt  or  hearty? 

Mr.  Titus  B.  Meigs,  for  many  years  a  valued  member  of  the 
Board  and  chairman  of  the  Finance  Committee,  on  account  of 
ill  health  was  obliged  last  November  to  present  his  resignation, 
which  was  accepted  with  regret. 

The  term  of  service  of  the  following  members  expires  with 
this  meeting  of  the  Assembly: 

Ministers.  Laymen. 

Rev.  D.  Stuart  Dodge,  D.  D.  Frank  L.  Babbott.

^2  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [l909' 

SYNODICAL    SELF-SUPPORT    AND    SUSTENTATION— 

1908-1909. 


SYNOD  OF  ILLINOIS. 

Special  work  among  immigrants  of  foreign  speech  has  been  con- 
ducted to  a  greater  extent  than  hitherto.  In  the  Presbytery  of  Chicago 
there  are  an  ItaHan  church  and  mission,  two  Bohemian  missions,  one 
Chinese  mission,  one  Slavic,  one  Persian,  two  German  and  Scandinav- 
ian, and  one  mixed  Scandinavian,  Irish  and  Jewish  mission.  These 
have  a  membership  of  630,  of  whom  ninety-five  were  received  during 
the  year.  There  has  been  an  average  attendance  of  869  at  the  services 
and  an  enrolment  of  1,902  in  the  Sabbath  schools.  The  Synodical 
Committee  has  continued  to  sustain  the  Italian  mission  at  Ladd,  in 
connection  with  the  Congregationalists,  who  pay  one-third  of  the  sal- 
ary of  the  missionary,  Mr.  A.  Martignetti,  for  his  services  at  Spring 
Valley.  After  spending  a  month  upon  the  field  under  the  direction  of 
the  Superintendent,  the  Rev.  T.  S.  Bagranoff,  a  Bulgarian  minister,  ac- 
cepted appointment  as  missionary  at  Madison  and  Granite  City.  Ser- 
vices in  the  Bulgarian  language  were  held  in  the  Presbyterian  churches 
at  both  places,  and  night  schools  were  opened,  the  tuition  fees  being 
sufficient  to  pay  the  rentals  and  contingent  expenses.  The  work  pro- 
gressed favorably  during  the  winter,  but  in  March  the  industrial 
depression  led  to  the  closing  of  the  manufacturing  establishments, 
and  many  of  the  Bulgarians  were  reduced  to  extreme  want.  Mr. 
Bagranoff  was  untiring  in  his  efforts  for  the  relief  of  his  countrymen, 
collecting  funds,  and  using  his  own  means  to  provide  food  for  the 
starving.  He  also  succeeded  in  securing  employment  elsewhere  for 
many  needy  ones.  As  the  result  of  his  faithful  service  in  the  emergen- 
cy, our  missionary  has  won  the  confidence  of  the  entire  community,  and 
Mrs.  Bagranoff  has  been  engaged  by  the  public  school  authorities  to 
teach  the  Bulgarians  and  those  of  other  nationalities,  who  were  crowd- 
ing the  primary  departments  in  their  desire  to  learn  the  English  lan- 
guage. In  spite  of  the  special  difficulties,  the  work  has  been  prospered 
spiritually,  and  a  number  of  Bulgarians  have  been  received  into  the 
membership  of  the  Presbyterian  churches  of  Madison  and  Granite  City. 
It  is  proposed  to  establish  a  Hungarian  mission  at  East  St.  Louis,  in 
connection  with  a  mission  to  be  sustained  by  the  Board  of  Home  Mis- 
sions in  St.  Louis,  but  circumstances  have  delayed  its  organization. 

The  work  of  the  year  may  be  summarized  as  follows :  The  Presby- 
terial  and  Synodical  Committees  have  aided  in  sustaining  146  churches 
and  twelve  missions,  employing  102  ordained  ministers  and  eight  other 
workers,  the  assisted  churches  have  10,345  members,  of  whom  1,057  have 
been  received  by  profession  of  faith,  and  480  by  certificate.  The  Sab- 
bath-school membership  is  15.144.  The  assisted  churches  raised  $55,790 
for  their  own  support,  and  $7,576  for  beneficence.  Twelve  missions 
among  foreign-speaking  immigrants  are  conducted  in  nine  languages.

Chairman  of  tlie  Committee  on  Home  Missions. 


SYNOD  OF  INDIANA. 


During  the  past  year  the  Synod  of  Indiana,  at  the  request  of  the 
Board  of  Home  Missions  in  New  York  and  after  conferences  between 
its  Home  Mission  Committee  and  the  secretaries  of  the  Board,  unani- 


1909-]  BOARD    OF    HOME    MISSIONS.  73 

niously  determined  so  to  modify  its  operations  as  to  enter  into  new 
and  closer  relations  with  the  Board.  The  essential  features  of  the  In- 
diana plan  remain  undisturbed,  viz.  (i)  That  each  presbytery  distributes 
its  own  mission  funds  to  its  own  needy  churches.  (2)  That  a  certain 
fi.xed  proportion  of  the  receipts  be  sent  to  the  Synodical  Committee,  and 
from  the  fund  so  provided,  grants  are  made  to  the  needy  presbyteries 
and  for  the  prosecution  of  the  general  mission  work  of  the  state.  The 
new  feature  now  adopted  makes  the  Board  at  New  York  a  party  in  the 
division  of  the  contributions  received  from  the  churches.  It  was  agreed 
by  the  synod  that  each  presbytery  shall  not  expend  more  than  seventy- 
five  per  cent,  of  its  home  mission  receipts  upon  its  own  field,  but  shall 
send  twenty-five  per  cent,  to  the  synodical  home  mission  treasurer.  He 
retains  fifteen  per  cent,  of  the  total  contributions  from  the  churches 
for  the  state  work,  and  sends  ten  per  cent,  to  the  Board  in  New  York. 
The  Synod  moreover  designates  each  year  the  maximum  amount  per 
member  it  requires  for  the  state  work,  and  agrees  that  whatever  is  re- 
ceived from  the  home  mission  offerings  of  the  churches  in  excess  of  that 
amount  shall  be  sent  entire  to  the  Board. 

Besides  the  contributions  from  the  churches,  the  synod  receives  an- 
nually the  proceeds  of  the  Yandes  Funds.  These  funds  were  created 
by  the  gifts  of  Mr.  Daniel  W.  Yandes  and  Mr.  Simon  Yandes  of  In- 
dianapolis, both  now  deceased,  by  whose  generosity  the  extent  and  in- 
fluence of  the  home  mission  work  in  the  state  is  every  year  greatly  aug- 
mented. Among  other  things  the  salary  and  expenses  of  our  synodical 
missionary,  the  Rev.  Dr.  George  Knox,  is  met  from  these  funds. 

A  gift  of  one  thousand  dollars  from  Mrs.  Caroline  Brown,  of  New 
Albany,  and  a  bequest  of  the  same  amount  from  Mrs.  Elizabeth  A. 
Remley,  of  Crawfordsville,  both  received  during  the  year,  have  enabled 
the  Synodical  Committee  to  extend  aid  in  special  cases  where  it  was  ur- 
gently needed. 

The  receipts  for  the  year,  as  reported  by  Dr.  W.  H.  McCaughey,  the 
retiring  chairman  of  synod's  committee,  were  as  follows : 

From  the  churches  of  synod  for  home  mission  work $13,184.35 

Income  from  the  Yandes  Funds  2,655.00 

From  the  special  gifts  above  referred  to  2,000.00 

To  this,  add  contributions  sent  directly  to  the  Board   1,445.35 

And  amounts  sent  to  the  Woman's  Home  Mission  Board.     10,449.30 

Besides  this,  our  synodical  superintendent.  Dr.  Knox,  secured  consider- 
able sums  for  church  building  purposes,  and  also  a  gift  of  a  lot  in  In- 
dianapolis from  Mr.  George  B.  Yandes,  which  in  due  time  will  be  con- 
verted into  available  funds  for  synodical  use. 

John  P.  Hale, 
Chaii'man  of  the  Home  Mission  Committee.. . 


SYNOD  OF  IOWA. 


Some  changes  in  the  home  mission  conditions  have  come  through  the 
erection  of  the  German  Presbyteries  of  Galena,  George  and  Waukon  by 
the  Assembly  of  1908.  Churches  in  several  synods  beside  Iowa  were 
thus  gathered  into  presbyteries  which  are  now  jurisdictionally  connected 
with  Iowa  Synod ;  but  as  to  home  mission  matters,  they  are  related  to 
the  Board  of  Home  Missions  in  New  York.  Just  what  effect  this  will 
have  on  our  receipts  and  disbursements  is  not  yet  entirely  manifest. 

The  attempt  of  the  Iowa  Board,  initiated  in  October,  1907,  to  connect 
its  work  more  closely  with  the  general  work  by  directing  that  ten  per 
cent,  of  all  contributions  should  be  sent  to  the  New  York  treasurv.  has 


74  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [  IQOP- 

been  generally  satisfactory,  although  it  has  somewhat  reduced  the  fund 
available  for  use  in  Iowa.  During  the  year  ending  in  October,  1908, 
there  was  sent  to  the  New  York  Board  a  total  of  $1,773.63,  nearly  all 
of  which  was  a  clear  advance  over  the  gifts  from  Iowa  churches  in  the 
previous  year. 

In  October,  1908,  the  Board,  with  the  approval  of  synod,  decided  that 
for  the  current  year  the  effort  should  be  to  secure  from  congregational 
offerings — no  others  are  used  for  this  Board's  work — the  sum  of  twenty 
thousand  dollars.  Of  the  contributions,  ten  per  cent,  as  heretofore 
shall  go  to  New  York.  In  case  more  than  twenty  thousand  dollars 
shall  be  secured,  the  surplus  shall  be  divided  equally  between  the  two 
Boards. 

For  the  year  ending  in  October,  1908,  not  including  individual  gifts, 
the  total  contributions  from  Iowa  to  home  missions  was  as  follows : 

Churches,  to  the  Iowa  Board   $15,906.22 

Churches,  to  New  York  Board 1.773-63 

Interest  on  Permanent  Fund  and  so  forth 710.21 

$18,390.06 

Women's  Societies     $9>639- 14 

Young  Women's  Societies,  and  Bands 242. 12 

Sunday-schools     728. 16 

Y.  P.  S.  C.  E.,  Senior,  Junior,  and  so  forth 1,369.56 

$11,978  98 

During  a  part  of  the  year  now  closing,  a  Bohemian  missionary  has 
been  employed  by  this  Board  and  the  Board  of  Sabbath-school  Work. 
The  latter  declines  to  continue  its  assistance  in  his  support,  and  the 
Iowa  Board  will  undertake  to  maintain  him  in  the  field.  The  work  is 
difficult,  and  for  the  present  unresponsive;  but  it  is  felt  that  there  is  a 
positive  duty  in  this  direction;  and  it  is  hoped  that  results  will  soon 
appear  to  gladden  the  hearts  of  the  workers. 

By  the  segregation  of  the  German  churches  of  this  and  other  synods 
into  their  own  presbyteries,  and  the  action  of  the  Assembly  in  connec- 
tion therewith,  the  Iowa  Board  releases  to  the  New  York  Board  all 
supervision  of  the  German  work,  as  to  its  maintenance  or  development. 

An  important  and  encouraging  part  of  the  work  of  the  past  few 
years  has  been  in  connection  with  missions  in  some  of  the  growing  cit- 
ies, and  in  the  main  the  results  have  abundantly  justified  the  wisdom 
of  emphasis  on  this  sort  of  work,  even  at  a  heavy  initial  expenditure. 
Notably  has  this  been  the  case  in  Ottumwa,  Waterloo  and  Cedar  Rapids, 
where  strong  churches  have  been  thus  secured. 

E.  B.  Newcomb, 
President  of  the  Board  of  loiva  Presbyterian  Home  Missions. 


SYNOD  OF  KANSAS. 


This  is  the  first  annual  report  to  the  General  Assembly  from  Kansas 
as  a  self-supporting  synod.  During  the  year  1906-1907,  the  Home  Board 
appropriated  to  the  Synod  of  Kansas  $7,600  more  than  the  Presbyterians 
of  the  State  contributed  during  the  same  time  for  home  mission  evan- 
gelism. With  the  conviction  that  we  were  able  to  pay  our  own  home  mis- 
sion bills,  and  thus  relieve  the  Board  of  this  heavy  drain  upon  its 
treasury,  in  October,  1907,  the  synod  voted  to  assume  self-support  April 
I,  1908.  To  enable  us  to  do  this,  the  Board  consented  to  reserve  for 
our  future  use  all  contributions  sent  in  between  October  first  and  March 
thirty-first,  and  at  the  same  time  to  meet  the  grants  for  this  period  and 
to  pay  the  salaries  of  our  pastor-evangelists  for  the  additional  months 
of  April  and  May. 


1909.]  BOARD    OF    liOME    MISSIONS.  75 

In  the  presence  of  the  financial  stringency,  we  began  our  new  enter- 
prise. We  started  with  $6,900  in  the  treasury.  We  have  paid  all  our 
obligations  promptly  during  the  year  and  have  on  hand  with  which  to 
begin  the  new  year  $7,544.99.  From  our  treasury,  ninety-seven  churches 
and  stations  have  been  assisted,  sixty  ministers  have  received  part  of 
their  salaries  and  our  five  pastor-evangelists  have  been  supported. 

Simplicity  of  organization  and  operation  has  always  been  sought. 
The  Permanent  Committee  on  Synodical  Home  Missions  is  composed 
of  the  chairmen  of  the  home  mission  committees  of  the  presbyteries. 
These  men  know  their  own  sections  thoroughly  and  thus  the  Com- 
mittee as  a  whole  is  in  personal  touch  with  the  needs  and  possibilities 
of  the  synod.  Mr.  H.  C.  Olin  has  been  the  efficient  treasurer  of  the 
home  mission  fund.  Rev.  Walter  M.  Irwin,  the  secretary  of  the  Com- 
mittee, has  largely  looked  after  the  administrative  department  of  the 
movement. 

Synodical  unity  has  been  effective  from  the  beginning.  There  is  but 
one  fund.  Every  dollar,  to  be  used  for  Kansas  home  mission  evangel- 
ism, is  sent  directly  to  the  treasurer.  At  the  same  time,  there  is  the  clos- 
est presbyterial  oversight.  In  loyalty  to  the  synod  as  a  whole,  each 
presbytery  is  expected  to  raise  its  just  share  for  the  synodical  fund.  Each 
presbytery  passes  upon  the  applications  of  its  own  churches  and  care- 
ful business  methods  are  adopted  to  get  the  largest  returns  from  the 
money  expended. 

Grants  are  made  to  the  churches,  to  assist  them  in  their  subscriptions 
to  pay  a  minister  a  reasonable  salary.  Every  needy  church  is  to  receive 
proper  assistance,  but  only  after  it  gives  a  reason  for  its  existence  and  a 
proof  of  faithful  effort.  Each  assisted  church  is  expected  to  send  a 
quarterly  report  to  the  chairman  of  the  Home  Mission  Committee,  as 
an  exhibit  of  the  work  accomplished  and  a  statement  of  the  faithfulness 
with  which  it  is  meeting  its  financial  obligations. 

During  this  first  year,  it  has  been  necessary  to  circulate  much  litera- 
ture. "Some  Questions  and  Answers  for  Kansas  Presbyterians,"  "The 
Home  Mission  Bulletin,"  and  "The  League  of  2000"  were  largely  and 
effectively  used  by  the  pastors  all  over  the  synod. 

The  complete  budget  for  the  coming  year  will  call  for  the  expendi- 
ture of  almost  $18,000,  and  the  churches  are  again  asked  to  contribute 
at  the  rate  of  sixty  dollars  per  one  hundred  members  to  this  fund.  A 
surprisingly  large  number  of  churches  reached  this  basis  this  year.  An- 
other notable  fact  is  that  the  churches  of  fifty  members  or  less — the 
ones  that  are  raising  all  they  possibly  can  for  local  support  and  that  are 
losing  year  by  year  their  best  families  by  removal  to  the  larger  churches 
— are  the  ones  that  are  often  giving  the  largest  amount  per  capita  to  our 
fund. 

The  Synodical  Committee  is  very  hopeful  concerning  the  future.  It' 
is  no  longer,  "Ought  we  and  can  we?"  It  is  now,  "We  can,  and  we  will 
do  it  better."  We  have  passed  the  crisis  of  initiation  and  organization. 
We  have  entered  upon  the  years  of  splendid  progress  and  achievement.

Secretary  of  the  Pennaiieiit  Committee  on  Synodical  Home  Missions. 


SYNOD  OF  MICHIGAN. 


With  each  year  a  larger  and  clearer  vision  of  duty  and  opportunity  is 
given  the  Synod  of  Michigan  regarding  its  home  mission  work.  This  is 
one  of  the  truly  home  mission  states,  the  problem  constantly  increasing 
in  difficulty  by  the  addition  of  almost  a  hundred  a  day  of  the  foreign 
born.  Yet  such  facts  are  inspirational,  and  result  in  larger  appropria- 
tions being  made  each  year.     Several  new  churches  have  been  recently

organized,  and  two  received  from  other  denominations.  The  average 
salary  of  missionaries  has  been  increased  more  than  fifty  dollars  over 
the  average  of  last  year.  At  three  points  special  work  is  being  done 
among  people  of  foreign  speech :  two  in  Detroit  Presbytery  for  Italians 
and  Hungarians,  and  one  in  Lake  Superior  Presbytery  for  the  first 
named  nationality.  Five  missionaries  are  employed  in  such  work.  In 
Detroit  we  are  just  completing  the  new  Italian  church,  and  church 
house,  at  an  expense  of  more  than  twelve  thousand  dollars.  Here  a  very 
interesting  work  is  going  on  in  religion,  education  and  domestic  science, 
also  a  free  circulating  library  is  provided. 

Besides  a  Superintendent  and  two  assistants  laboring  in  the  synod 
we  have  had  seventy  missionaries  at  work  during  the  year,  including 
ten  students.  The  average  salary  being  $690,  not  including  manses. 
We  expect  to  report  before  the  close  of  the  year  that  no  ordained  man 
has  been  commissioned  for  less  than  $750.  The  home  mission  committee 
is  also  paying  the  salary  of  the  students'  pastor  at  the  State  University. 
There  are  541,000  foreign  born  citizens  in  our  state,  26,000  of  them  be- 
ing illiterate  voters.  Detroit  contains  107,272  foreigners,  6,720  being 
unable  to  read  or  write.  Our  future  policy  has  as  one  of  its  purposes  a 
larger  ministry  to  this  class  of  people. 

W.  T.  Jaquess, 
Chairman  Permanent  Committee  of  Home  Missions. 


SYNOD  OF  NEW  JERSEY. 

The  twenty-second  year  of  synodical  home  missions  in  New  Jersey, 
which  ended  September  thirtieth,  1908,  was  marked  by  much  the  larg- 
est increase  in  receipts  ever  attained.  The  increase  was  $3,340.43  and 
the  total  $24,104.25.  This  was  the  splendid  response  of  the  presbyteries 
and  churches  to  the  growing  needs  of  the  work  as  presented  to  them 
at  the  outset  of  the  year  through  synod  and  its  committee.  It  was  ac- 
complished largely  through  the  activity  and  loyalty  of  the  Presbyterian 
chairmen  and  pastors.  It  demonstrates  the  hold  which  the  work  has  up- 
on the  Presbyterians  of  the  state  and  their  quick  recognition  of  the 
need. 

The  occasion  for  the  increased  call  lay  almost  entirely  in  the  exten- 
sion of  work  among  people  of  foreign  speech,  and  about  one-half  the  to- 
tal amount  was  expended  in  that  work. 

In  all  aid  was  given  for  work  in  108  fields,  of  which  eighty-one  were 
fully  organized  churches  and  twenty-seven  were  missions ;  in  these 
seventy-two  ordained  ministers  and  eighteen  lay-workers  were  em- 
ployed. Almost  five  hundred  persons  were  added  upon  profession  of 
faith  and  the  total  membership  reached  was  nearly  six  thousand,  with 
Sunday  schools  aggregating  nearly  eight  thousand. 

That  a  spirit  of  self-help  and  liberality  is  found  in  many  of  the  aided 
fields  is  evinced  by  the  fact  that  these  churches  raised  about  fifty  thou- 
sand dollars  for  their  own  uses  and  gave  nearly  six  thousands  dollars  to 
the  beneficences  of  the  Church  at  large.  Six  churches  attained  self-sup- 
port during  the  year,  and  in  fifteen  cases  the  amount  of  aid  was  re- 
duced, frequently  at  the  suggestion  of  the  aided  churches  themselves. 

Four  new  churches  were  organized  and  work  was  begun  at  other 
points.  The  smaller  country  churches  seem  generally  to  have  had  all 
they  could  do,  (and  sometimes  more  than  they  could  do,)  to  hold  their 
own.  Two  presbyteries  have  united  to  secure  a  presbyterial  evangelist 
particularly  to  aid  such  churches. 

Work  among  the  colored  people  shows  some  improvement  but  is  in- 
adequate in  amount  to  the  need. 

There  are  in  the  synod  twenty  German  churches  of  which  two-thirds 


igog.]  BOARD    OF    HOME    MISSIONS.  ^J 

are  self-supporting;  about  twenty  Italian  churches  and  missions,  all 
aided  either  locally  or  from  synod's  fund;  three  Magyar  churches  and 
two  missions,  all  provided  with  buildings,  but  requiring  aid;  services 
are  held  for  Syrians  and  Armenians  at  two  points  each ;  and  during 
the  year  a  congregation  of  Ruthenians,  previously  Roman  Catholics  of 
the  Greek  rite,  have  been  counseled  and  aided. 

The  mission  work  carried  on  by  synod  within  the  state  is  supple- 
mented by  work  of  presbyteries  and  local  churches  of  almost  equal  cost, 
so  that  New  Jersey  is  earnestly  seeking  to  provide  for  her  own ;  but  at 
the  same  time  the  synod  continues  to  give  still  larger  amoimts  for 
home  missions  beyond  her  own  borders,  and  is  glad  to  cooperate  with 
the  other  synods  and  the  Home  Mission  Board  in  the  great  common 
work. 

Samuel  McLanahan, 
Chairman  of  Committee  on  Synodical  Home  Missions. 


SYNOD  OF  NEW  YORK. 

The  Synod  of  New  York  has  been  greatly  blessed  in  caring  for  its 
home  mission  work  during  the  past  year. 

Because  of  financial  conditions,  the  year  has  been  a  peculiarly  trying 
one,  yet  "His  promises  are  sure"  and  have  been  fulfilled  to  us  in  a  gen- 
erous measure. 

It  is  a  pleasure  to  bear  testimony  to  the  untiring  zeal  of  the  officers 
and  members  of  the  committee  having  this  work  in  charge,  which  has 
been  such  an  important  factor  in  accomplishing  the  year's  work. 

G.  P.  CONARD, 

Chairman  of  the  Permanent  Committee  on  Synodical  Missions. 


SYNOD  OF  OHIO. 


The  Synodical  Committee  reporting  for  the  eleventh  consecutive  year 
of  Ohio  home  missions  under  the  unity  plan  is  able  to  make  a  gratifying 
showing  of  progress.  The  problems  presenting  themselves  in  the  prose- 
cution of  the  work  are  increased  in  kinds,  numbers  and  proportions. 
Happily  there  has  been  some  increase  in  the  material  both  of  men  and 
money  in  meeting  them,  though  it  must  be  confessed  wholly  inadequate 
to  our  responsibilities  and  opportunities.  The  work  goes  and  grows. 
$76,974.33,  exclusive  of  legacies  and  special  gifts,  represents  the  offer- 
ing for  home  missions  in  the  Synod  of  Ohio  for  the  year  ending  Sep- 
tember thirtieth,  1908.  Of  this  sum  the  Board  received  $30,235  and 
our  presbyterial  and  synodical  treasures  were  given  $46,739.  Out  of 
the  latter  sum  grants  of  aid  were  made  to  175  home  mission  churches 
and  forty-three  mission  or  preaching  stations.  Eight  new  churches 
were  organized  three  of  them  being  self-supporting.  141  ordained  min- 
isters together  with  thirty-six  other  workers  were  employed.  There 
were  13^  additions  to  these  home  mission  churches,  of  whom  740  came 
upon  confession  of  faith.  The  churches  aided  gave  $11,602  for  bene- 
ficence and  $89,071  for  self-support. 

We  are  painfully  aware  of  the  meagerness  of  our  efforts  to  meet  the 
needs  of  our  foreign-speaking  peoples.  There  are  four  German  churches, 
two  Hungarian  organizations,  one  Italian,  two  Magyar  and  one  Slav 
church  together  with  five  additional  missions  for  the  different  national- 
ities. The  work  suffers  most  from  the  lack  of  suitably  prepared 
workers. 

Synod  has  three  special  representatives.    Rev.   Walter   H.   Houston, 


yS  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [^9^- 

the  superintendent,  and  his  two  assistants  are  efficient  in  a  gratifying  de- 
gree. Synod  moreover  directed  that  the  missionary  work  done  in  our 
bounds  by  the  Sabbath-school  Board  be  placed  under  the  direction  of 
the  Home  Missions  Committee.  The  number  of  vacancies  in  our  bounds 
has  been  reduced  about  one-half.  The  seventeen  prebyteries  reporting 
all  show  fewer  vacancies  than  one  year  ago. 

For  a  better  oversight  of  the  work  the  synod  has  been  divided  into 
five  home  mission  districts,  a  representative  to  be  placed  in  each  as 
funds  will  permit. 

Our  relations  with  the  Home  Board  have  been  most  cordial — could 
not  have  been  more  so.  In  the  effort  to  realize  greater  unity  in  the 
presentation  and  prosecution  of  the  home  mission  enterprise  we  agreed 
that  the  Home  Board  should  receive  a  sum  equal  to  twenty  per  cent, 
of  our  regular  church  home  mission  offerings.  The  utmost  energies  of 
synod  and  of  the  Board  are  pledged  in  pushing  our  one  great  enter- 
prise among  the  churches. 

While  we  of  Ohio  boast  no  startling  accomplishments,  there  are  not 
wanting  evidences  of  real  progress. 

George  E.  Davies, 
Chairman  of  Home  Missions  Committee. 


SYNOD  OF  PENNSYLVANIA. 

The  last  Annual  Report  of  the  Synodical  Home  Mission  Committee 
to  the  synod  shows  that,  including  three  of  our  largest  presbyteries 
which  support  their  own  work,  we  employ  in  the  state  by  the  aid  of 
mission  funds  a  total  of  two  hundred  ministers  and  missionaries ;  that 
there  are  two  hundred  and  sixty-four  churches  and  missions  which  re- 
ceive aid ;  that  during  the  year  there  were  2,719  additions  to  member- 
ship ;  that  the  total  Sunday-school  membership  is  22,440 ;  and  that  the  to- 
tal expended  for  synodical  and  presbyterial  missions  was  $90,598. 

Comparing  the  number  of  pastors  and  stated  supplies  employed  in 
the  synod  with  the  number  of  ministers  in  our  mission  fields,  we  find 
that  about  one  minister  in  four  in  our  state  serves  a  home  mission 
church.  Comparing  the  number  of  our  churches  with  those  helped  by 
mission  funds,  we  find  that  one  church  in  every  five  is  a  home  mission 
church.  We  find  that  the  membership  of  the  home  mission  churches  of 
the  synod  exceeds  by  two  thousand  the  total  membership  of  the  two 
Synods  of  North  and  South  Dakota.  Twenty  years  ago  less  than  $25.- 
000  annually  were  expended  in  home  mission  effort  in  the  synod,  but 
last  year  more  than  five  times  that  amount  was  expended.  The  sense 
of  responsibility  imposed  by  the  synod  upon  the  synod  by  the  plan 
of  self-support  has  done  much  to  promote  this  growth  in  home  mission 
interest. 

In  some  of  our  presbyteries  presbyterial  evangelists  are  being  em- 
ployed with  good  results  in  reviving  old  churches  which  had  lost  all 
signs  of  life,  and  in  stimulating  vacant  churches  to  the  point  of  calling 
pastors.  One  of  these  evangelists  in  a  small  presbytery,  who  is  sus- 
tained in  part  by  mission  funds,  reports  that  during  the  last  year  he 
has  administered  the  Lord's  Supper  in  many  vacant  churches  and  re- 
ceived two  hundred  and  thirty  persons  on  confession  of  their  faith, 
fifty-eight  of  whom  were  baptized.  This  is  one  of  the  most  hopeful 
features  of  our  work  and  indicates  that  it  is  worth  while  to  give  atten- 
tion to  the  weak  and  needy  churches. 

On  account  of  the  development  of  new  coal  fields,  the  building  of 
new  railroads  and  trolley  lines,  and  the  consequent  springing  up  of  new 
towns,  we  have  had  many  demands  upon  us  for  funds  in  aid  of  new 
churches,  and  the  indications  are  that  the  coming  year  will  witness  the 
starting  of  many  more  such  enterprises. 


1909.]  BOARD    OF    riOME    MISSIONS.  "^ 

But  our  work  among  the  foreign-speaking  peoples  is  the  work  that 
continues  to  press  upon  us  most  heavily.  Pennsylvania  is  one  of  the 
most  unique  foreign  mission  fields  in  the  world,  as  the  foreigners  are 
sweeping  in  upon  us  by  the  thousands  from  all  quarters  of  the  globe. 
For  several  years  a  number  of  our  presbyteries  have  been  doing  col- 
porteur and  educational  work  among  these  people,  and  this  work  is 
beginning  to  tell  in  the  organization  here  and  there  of  a  church  for 
those  of  foreign  speech.  The  Presbyteries  of  Pittsburgh  and  Philadel- 
phia have  a  large  amount  of  this  work  to  do,  and  they  are  doing  it  at 
great  expense,  without  drawing  upon  synod's  fund,  while  a  number  of 
the  other  presbyteries  are  aided  in  this  work  by  the  synod's  Committee. 
The  Presbytery  of  Pittsburgh  is  now  engaged  in  a  special  effort  to  raise 
a  fund  of  $50,000  in  aid  of  its  foreign  work.  It  is  a  notable  fact  that 
during  the  past  year  while  the  receipts  for  synodical  home  missions 
amounted  to  $27,651,  the  various  presbyteries  report  an  additional 
amount  of  $117,423,  raised  and  spent  within  their  own  bounds.  This 
large  increase  of  funds  for  presbyterial  purposes  is  owing  largely  to  the 
efforts  to  evangelize  the  foreign  population  in  local  settlements.  The 
growth  of  interest  in  presbyterial  home  missions  has  unquestionably 
had  its  influence  in  reducing  the  receipts  for  the  general  work  of  the 
synod  carried  on  by  our  Committee. 

In  spite  of  the  constantly  increasing  demands  upon  us  in  support  of 
our  own  work,  the  synod  has  maintained  its  loyal  support  of  the  Home 
Board  and  will  continue  to  do  so. 

In  behalf  of  the  Synodical  Home  Mission  Committee,

SYNOD  OF  WISCONSIN. 


The  year  closing  March  31,  1909,  has  been  a  memorable  one  in  the 
home  mission  work  in  Wisconsin  because  of  our  having  attained  com- 
plete self-support.  The  efforts  of  the  preceding  five  years  naturally  cul- 
minated in  our  assuming,  on  November  first,  1908,  the  support  of  our 
synodical  superintendent,  whose  salary  up  to  that  time -had  been  carried 
by  the  Home  Board. 

The  progress  made  by  our  churches  seems  marvellous  as  we  look 
back  to  the  conditions  existing  in  1901-2  when  we  contributed  only  $2,- 
610.11  for  "Evangelization  in  Wisconsin",  and  drew  out  from  the  treas- 
ury of  the  Home  Board  $12,152. 

After  deciding  upon  self-support,  for  the  first  five  months  we  raised 
a  banking  fund  of  $4,783.35,  and  since  that  time  the  contributions  have 
been  as  follows : 

1903-4 $9,498.66 

1904-5 10,148.65 

1905-6 11,105.87 

1906-7 11,613.14 

1907-8 ^ 14,226.52 

1908-9 13,390.33 

This  last  year  shows  a  falling  off  in  the  receipts  to  the  amount  of 
$836.19,  but  perhaps  too  long  a  step  forward  was  taken  the  preceding 
year  when  the  contributions  increased  from  $11,613.14  to  $14,226.52. 
Then  too,  local  conditions  in  some  of  our  churches  in  part  account  for 
the  decrease.  But  taken  as  a  whole  the  above  figures  give  a  very  cred- 
itable showing  for  the  Wisconsin  Presbyterians.  And  best  of  all  has 
been  the  spiritual  effect  of  the  movement  upon  our  churches. 


8o  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE  [l909- 

Instead  of  being  crushed  by  our  burdens,  we  have  been  uplifted.  We 
have  entered  into  the  joy  of  service,  and  found  a  closer  fellowship  than 
otherwise  we  could  have  found  with  the  great  Head  of  the  Church. 
And  the  consciousness  that  He  has  thus  far  helped  us  and  blessed  our 
feeble  efforts  is  in  itself  a  strong  inspiration  for  more  and  better  work 
as  we  now  seek  to  meet  the  demands  of  the  hour  and  lay  hold  of  the 
present  opportunities  in  this  rapidly  developing  state. 

Our  expenses  last  year  exceeded  our  receipts  by  $147.39,  yet  notwith- 
standing this,  we  enter  upon  the  new  year  with  a  banking  fund  of  $1,- 
962.68,  which,  although  not  a  large  sum,  is  more  than  we  have  had 
some  years. 

We  have  been  greatly  favored  in  having  had  from  the  begininng  of 
our  self-support  movement  the  efficient  services  of  the  Rev.  L.  C.  Smith, 
D.  D.,  who  had  held  the  office  of  synodical  superintendent,  and  also, 
for  a  large  portion  of  the  time,  of  the  Rev.  James  S.  Wilson,  who  has 
served  as  assistant  superintendent.  During  the  past  year  we  have  had 
three  excellent  men  laboring  as  presbyterial  evangelists,  or  pastors  at 
large,  the  Revs.  C.  J.  McConnell,  Moses  Breeze,  and  C.  A.  Adams. 

As  everywhere  throughout  the  Church,  the  women  of  our  state  are 
doing  a  noble  work.  They  have  expended  something  over  $3,500  upon 
home  mission  work  within  our  bounds  during  the  year,  exclusive  of 
what  the  Church  is  doing  through  the  synod's  committee,  making  the 
total  amount  over  seventeen  thousand  dollars.  The  women  alone  are 
now  putting  more  money  into  the  home  mission  work  than  the  entire 
Church  did  seven  years  ago. 

The  contributions  for  this  year  have  averaged  seventy-two  and  eight- 
tenths  cents  per  member  exclusive  of  what  the  women  have  done,  or 
counting  their  expenditures  ninety-one  and  eight-tenths  cents. 

New  churches  have  been  organized  at  Draper,  Exland,  Couderay, 
Radisson,  Winter  and  Edivold.  The  Messiah  church  of  Milwaukee  has 
been  disbanded. 

The  prospects  for  the  future  are  bright.  We  have  plenty  of  hard 
work  before  us,  and  plenty  of  opportunities  to  accomplish  something  in 
determining  the  religious  future  of  Wisconsin. 

Howard  A.  Talbot, 
Chairman  of  Synod's  Home  Mission  Committee.

1909]  treasurer's  report.  87 


TREASURER'S  REPORT. 

The  Home  Board  submits  its  financial  statements  in  full 
faith  that  the  Assembly  and  the  Church  will  rejoice  that, 
although  the  receipts  and  expenditures  have  been  by  far  the 
largest  in  its  history,  the  deficit  of  last  year  has  been  increased 
by  only  $18,893.45.  The  total  deficit  at  the  close  of  the  year's 
business,  therefore,  covering  those  of  the  two  years  ending 
March  31st,  1909,  stands  at  $66,611.18. 

It  will  be  subject  for  still  further  rejoicing  and  congratula- 
tion that  by  the  use  of  a  part  of  the  reserve  this  deficit  has 
been  completely  wiped  out,  the  Board  believing  it  to  be  more 
in  harmony  with  good  business  procedure  to  show  a  decreased 
reserve  and  a  clean  balance  sheet,  than  to  retain  the  reserve 
intact,  and  report  a  debt. 

It  will  be  recalled  that  this  reserve  was  set  up  in  1905  by 
the  use  of  a  part  of  a  very  large  legacy  which  came  to  the 
Board  near  the  close  of  that  year's  business,  after  all  obliga- 
tions had  been  provided  for  to  the  end  of  the  fiscal  year.  The 
reserve  was  established  with  a  double  purpose  in  view,  first,  to 
use  the  income  therefrom  as  a  partial  offset  against  interest  paid 
upon  loans  during  the  summer  months,  and,  second,  to  provide 
for  just  such  emergencies  as  have  been  upon  the  Board  during 
the  last  two  years. 

When  the  Assembly  added  to  the  obligations  of  the  Board, 
through  the  great  amount  of  home  mission  work  coming  with 
the  Cumberland  union,  and  by  committing  to  its  care  the  evan- 
gelistic work  in  home  mission  synods,  it  did  not,  at  the  same 
time,  provide  the  large  added  income  absolutely  necessary.  This, 
taken  together  with  the  financial  stress  which  has  been  upon  the 
country  during  the  same  period,  has  prevented  the  Board  from 
meeting  fully  its  obligations  from  current  receipts,  and  it  is 
indeed  a  matter  of  congratulation  that  the  reserve  is  availa- 
ble, and  makes  possible  the  beginning  of  the  new  year,  bright 
with  its  prospects  of  business  improvement,  with  all  obliga- 
tions provided  for. 

Besides  the  new  work  referred  to  above,  other  departments 
have  been  added  by  direction  of  the  General  Assembly,  such 
as  the  Church  and  Labor  Department,  the  Immigration  Depart- 
ment, and  the  Department  of  Indian  Missions.  All  these  must 
be  taken  into  consideration  in  order  to  a  proper  estimate  of  the 
present  financial  responsibilities  of  the  Board. 

A  study  of  the  Comparative  Statement  below,  will  be  illum- 
inating from  many  points  of  view,  particularly  so  in  that 
although  showing  a  very  large  total  increase  ($84,686.52)  that 


88  treasurer's  report.  [1909. 

increase  is  more  than  accounted  for  by  the  gain  in  legacies 
($88,721.07).  For,  while  the  churches  show  a  small  gain 
($2,843.45)  societies  and  individuals  more  than  offset  it  by  a 
large  falling  off.

It  is  only  fair  to  say,  in  this  connection,  that  during  the 
year  the  Presbyteries  of  Portland  and  Los  Angeles,  and  the 
Synod  of  Kansas,  have  conducted  their  own  Home  Mission 
operations,  thus  using,  within  their  own  bounds,  a  total  of 
approximately  $6,700,  which,  in  the  year  closing  March  31st, 
1908,  came  to  the  Board. 

It  would  seem  to  be  time  for  the  Church  to  consider  whether, 
with  the  immense  home  and  foreign  missionary  problems  upon 
its  hands  within  the  borders  of  our  own  country,  a  more  con- 
certed and  energetic  movement  should  not  be  made  to  bring 
up  the  contributions  to  Home  Missions  from  live  sources.  By 
no  means  reduce  the  contributions  for  work  abroad,  but  bring 
up  those  for  the  work  in  the  homeland.  We  submit  that,  with 
foreigners  pouring  in  at  the  average  rate  of  over  one  million 
per  year,  we  have  a  home-foreign  problem  which  requires,  and 
must  have  far  larger  help  from  all  sources  than  has  hitherto 
been  forthcoming. 

This  is  a  matter  which  the  Assembly,  and  especially  its 
Executive  Commission,  must  consider  with  the  greatest  care,  in 
fairness  to  all  interests  concerned. 

The  receipts  through  the  woman's  department  of  the  Board 
for  school  work,  show  a  slight  increase.  In  addition  to  the 
amount  shown  by  this  comparative  statement,  there  has  been 
collected,  through  the  Woman's  Auxiliary  Societies,  as  indi- 
cated in  the  statement  of  total  receipts  on  page  269  the  sum  of 
$75,076.63  which  sum  passed  through  these  offices  to  the  Treas- 
ury of  the  Board  for  Freedmen  in  Pittsburgh. 

The  net  income  on  the  Presbyterian  Building  and  No.  5  West

fying  to  report  that,  beginning  May  ist,  the  Presbyterian  Build- 
ing will  show  the  largest  earnings  in  its  history.  The  large 
store  and  loft  space  which  has  been  vacant  for  a  considerable 
period,  is  all  now  well  rented  on  long  time  leases,  and  the 
office  vacancies  in  the  building  are  exceedingly  few.  Includ- 
ing the  rentals  of  the  7th  and  8th  floors  (occupied  by  the  own- 
ers, the  Boards  of  Home  and  Foreign  Missions)  the  gross 
rental  value  now  figures  approximately  $160,000.00. 

It  is  interesting  to  recall,  in  this  connection,  that  the  build- 
ing, which,  when  it  was  constructed,  was  supposed  by  some  to 
be  so  far  outside  of  the  business  section  that  the  growth  of 
the  City  would  not  overtake  it  for  scores  of  years,  is  now,  after 
thirteen  years  of  existence,  nearly  one  mile  within  what  is  con- 
ceded to  be  the  center  of  the  city,  from  a  business  standpoint. 

The  Board  is  paying  annuities  on  contributions  toward  the 
building  mortgage  at  the  rate  of  4%,  upon  a  sum  total  of 
$i34,375-oo. 

Permanent  and  Annuity  funds  have  been  increased  during 
the  year  in  the  sum  of  $72,600.00. 

A  still  serious  feature  of  the  work  of  the  Board  is  the 
necessity  of  conducting  its  operations  upon  borrowed  capital 
for  approximately  eleven  months  of  the  year.  This  year  the 
Board  has  been  paying  interest  at  the  rate  of  4%  upon  over 
$300,000  of  loans,  in  order  that  our  missionaries  and  teachers 
may  not  be  subject  to  financial  limitations  on  account  of  the 
tardy  receipt  of  salaries.  There  has,  therefore,  been  paid  out  in 
interest,  on  this  account,  during  the  year,  the  sum  of  $8,966.78. 
This  amount,  if  expended  in  salaries  of  missionaries, at  the  aver- 
age rate  appropriated  by  the  Board,  would  have  put  into  the 
field  twenty-six  missionaries. 

The  overwhelming  rate  at  which  remittances  come  to  the 
office  of  the  Treasurer  during  the  three  weeks  preceding  the 
close  of  the  books,  as  shown  below,  indicates  that  very  many 
churches  and  societies  are  still  pursuing  the  unfortunate  habit 
of  holding  funds  gathered  during  the  year  until  the  very  last. 
This  tendency  should  be  corrected  and  offerings  should  be  sent 
immediately.

Percentage  of  Expenditures  to  gross  receipts  for  the  past 

year  is  as  follows : 

Expense  of  administration 5.54 

Disbursements,   not  administrative 48 

Cost   of    communicating    information,    including    disbursements 

directed  by  the  General  Assembly  2.50 

8.52 

The  percentages  above  are  based  upon  the  receipts  for  cur- 
rent work  alone.  Figuring  them  upon  the  basis  of  the  total 
amount  of  cash  actually  received  aggregating  $1,386,595.75  and 
which  total  includes  the  receipts  for  current  work,  permanent 
funds,  Freedmen,  Sundry  Boards,  etc.,  they  are  as  follows: 

Expense  of  administration  4.26 

Disbursements,  not  administrative Zl 

Cost   of    communicating    information,    including    disbursements 

directed  by  the  General  Assembly  1.90-

Note. — The  cost  of  operating  the  Woman's  department,  $35,588.83  has 
been  deducted  from  the  gross  receipts  of  the  Woman's  Board  before 
figuring  these  percentages,  thereby  placing  this  Board  on  the  same  basis 
with  other  Boards  receiving  money  from  Woman's  Boards. 

The  twenty-five  churches  contributing  the  largest  amounts  to 
the  evangelization  work  of  the  Board,  during  the  year,  are  as

APPENDIX. 


REPORT  OF  STANDING  COMIWITTEE  ON  HOME  MISSIONS. 

The  Standing  Committee  on  Home  Missions  respectfully  reports 
that  it  has  examined  the  One  Hundred  Seventh  Annual  Report  of 
the  Board  of  Home  Missions :  and  also  the  Thirtieth  Annual  Report  of 
the  Woman's  Board. 

In  both  these  reports,  before  the  story  is  begun  of  the  great 
work  of  the  year,  mention  is  made  of  the  laying  down  their  work  by 
some  of  the  faithful  workers.  Rev.  Donald  McDonald,  D.  D.,  for 
many  years  the  synodical  missionary  of  Kentucky;  Rev.  John  Hall  in 
Rhode  Island;  Rev.  Alonzo  Harlan  in  Arkansas;  Rev.  William  D. 
Kidd  in  California  and  Rev.  John  Chase  Lord  in  New  Mexico  have 
ceased  from  their  labors  and  entered  into  rest,  during  the  past  year. 

Mrs.  Darwin  R.  James,  for  twenty-five  years  president  of  the  Wo- 
man's Board,  has  been  compelled  to  resign  by  serious  illness. 

Though  their  names  do  not  appear  in  these  reports,  the  General  As- 
sembly could  not  meet  in  Colorado  without  recalling  the  name  of  Dr. 
Sheldon  Jackson,  the  great  home  missionary,  and  of  Dr.  Kirkwood, 
the  synodical  superintendent  of  this  state  for  years,  both  of  whom  have 
died  during  this  year. 

It  meets  our  sense  of  the  fitness  of  things  that  when  we  begin  to 
recount  the  events  of  the  year,  we  should  think  of  the  men  and  wo- 
men who  have  labored  and  prayed  and  died  for  the  prog^ress  of  the 
Kingdom,  for  men  are  more  important  than  money  in  the  work  of  the 
Kingdom  of  Christ. 

The  total  number  of  missionaries  who  have  labored  in  the  vast 
field  under  the  care  of  the  Board  during  the  past  year  was  1,435,  of 
whom  59  were  Cuban,  Porto  Rican,  Mexican  and  Indian  helpers.  There 
were  447  missionary  teachers. 

As  the  fruit  of  their  labor,  the  Lord  added  to  the  churches  7,135 
members  by  confession  of  faith  and  4,645  by  certificates  of  membership 
in  other  churches.  Ninety-three  new  churches  were  organized ;  sev- 
enty-two new  edifices  were  erected;  and  one  hundred  ten  churches 
reached  the  Honor  Roll  of  self-support. 

The  Board  received  from  all  sources  last  year  the  sum  of  $1,073,- 
971.76.  This  is  the  largest  sum  ever  reported  to  the  Assembly  by  this 
Board. 

Nevertheless  with  such  a  report  of  work  done  and  blessings  re- 
ceived, the  Board  announces  that  for  the  coming  year  the  needs  exceed 
the  probable  income  by  two  hundred  thousand  dollars,  and  that  it  has 
been  necessary  to  deny  requests  and  cut  down  appropriations  to  the 
point  of  bitter  disappointment  to  the  entire  work.  New  fields  must 
wait :  enlargement  must  be  postponed :  opportunities  must  be  refused : 
appeals  must  be  denied. 


308  APPENDIX.  [1909. 

They  must  wait?  For  what?  For  God  to  open  the  doors?  No,  there 
was  never  such  an  open  door  for  any  people.  For  consecrated  work- 
ers to  be  found?  No, — in  a  land  where  every  avenue  promises  financial 
reward,  there  are  men  and  women  who  for  the  sake  of  Christ  and  the 
world's  need,  are  ready  to  endure  self-sacrifice  and  hardship  to  preach 
the  gospel.  They  must  wait  ?  For  encouraging  results  to  follow  the  la- 
bors of  the  missionaries?  No!  you  heard  the  report.  For  what,  then, 
must  they  wait? 

They  must  wait  until  the  members  of  the  Church  are  willing  to 
give  of  their  abundance  to  the  cause  of  saving  the  country  and  the 
Church.  Some  of  the  rich  members  of  the  Church  count  themselves 
stewards  of  God,  and  give  worthy  and  noble  gifts.  Some  of  the  poor 
give  conscientiously  and  steadily  according  to  their  ability.  But  in  a 
land  where  the  average  man  enjoys  luxuries  known  nowhere  else  on 
earth,  and  spends  more  money  than  the  average  man  in  any  nation, 
they  wait,  and  while  they  wait  the  tide  of  immigration  pours  in,  threat- 
ening the  stability  of  our  institutions ;  increasing  the  perils  of  our 
Christian  life ;  and  multiplying  the  difficulties  that  confront  our 
churches.  While  they  wait,  God  is  testing  this  nation.  It  is  as  if  He 
had  grown  weary  of  our  delay,  and  had  shaken  the  ends  of  the  earth 
into  our  lap.  New  towns  spring  up  in  an  incredibly  short  time ;  but  the 
story  has  grown  familiar,  and  we  have  lost  the  sense  of  responsibility 
that  moved  the  Church  a  generation  ago  to  seek  to  establish  a  Christian 
civilization  on  these  western  plains. 

You  thought  that  the  time  would  soon  come  when  there  would  be 
no  home  mission  work  to  be  done  in  these  western  states.  Some  of 
us  even  thought  that  time  had  already  come.  You  have  seen  the  vast 
prairies  that  are  yet  but  dotted  with  specks  of  towns  on  their  almost 
limitless  surface.  You  know  of  the  mighty  irrigation  plans  by  which 
whole  territories  of  garden  lands  are  almost  as  if  they  had  been  cre- 
ated afresh.  You  forgot  Alaska  and  Cuba  and  Porto  Rico.  You  for- 
got that  there  are  three  hundred  thousand  Indians  still  alive,  and 
that  the  Presbyterian  Church  has  missions  in  sixteen  states  and  among 
forty-three  tribal  divisions ;  and  that  there  are  sixty-three  ordained 
ministers  and  fifty-five  helpers  preaching  in  one  hundred  and  one  or- 
ganized churches  and  thirty-seven  mission  stations.  And  while  we 
were  forgetting  and  growing  lax  in  the  performance  of  our  duty,  we 
suddenly  awoke  to  the  fact  that  the  back  door  of  the  world  had  been 
left  open,  and  there  had  come  in  millions  of  men  and  women  who  have 
settled  down  as  our  literal  neighbors,  and  who  need  to  be  taught  the 
alphabet  of  Christian  truth  and  life. 

American  life,  social,  political,  religious, — in  family,  in  state,  in 
church, — never  confronted  such  opportunities;  never  felt  the  strain  of 
such  temptations ;  never  was  balanced  in  such  scales ;  never  stood  on 
the  peak  of  destiny,  as  it  does  this  day.  The  solution  of  all  our  prob- 
lems is  in  the  gospel  of  Jesus  Christ  and  nowhere  else. 

"Therefore,  thou  shalt  keep  the  commandments  of  the 
Lord  thy  God,  to  walk  in  His  ways,  and  to  fear  Him, — 


1909.]  APPENDIX.  309 

For  the  Lord  thy  God  bringeth  thee  into  a  good  land, 
a  land  of  brooks  of  water,  of  fountains,  and  depths  that 
spring  out  of  valleys  and  hills : 

A  land  of  wheat  and  barley,  and  vines  and  fig  trees, 
pomegranates,  a  land  of  oil  olive,  and  honey, — 

A  land  wherein  thou  shalt  eat  bread  without  scarce- 
ness :  thou  shalt  not  lack  anything  in  it :  a  land  whose 
stones  are  iron,  and  out  of  whose  hills  thou  mayst  dig 
brass. 

When  thou  hast  eaten  and  art  full,  then  thou  shalt 
bless  the  Lord  thy  God  for  the  good  land  which  he  hath 
given  thee. 

Beware,  that  thou  forget  not  the  Lord  thy  God,  in  not 
keeping  his  commandments,  and  his  judgments  and  his 
statutes,  which  I  command  thee  this  day, — 

Lest,  when  thou  hast  eaten  and  art  full,  and  hast  built 
goodly  houses,  and  dv/elt  therein ; 

And  when  thy  herds  and  thy  flocks  multiply  and  thy 
silver  and  thy  gold  is  multiplied,  and  all  that  thou  hast  is 
multiplied, — 

Then  thy  heart  be  lifted  up,  and  thou  forget  the  Lord 
thy  God,  which  brought  thee  out  of  the  land  of  Egypt,  out 
of  the  house   of  bondage     

And  thou  say  in  thine  heart.  My  power  and  the  might 
of  mine  hand  hath  gotten  me  this  wealth. 

But  thou  shalt  remember  the  Lord  thy  God,  for  it  is 
He  that  giveththee  power  to  get  wealth:  that  He  may  es- 
tablish his  covenant,  which  He  sware  unto  thy  fathers  as  it 
is  this   day. 

And  it  shall  be,  if  thou  do  at  all  forget  the  Lord  thy 
God  and  walk  after  other  gods,  and  serve  them  and  wor- 
»  ship  them,  I  testify  against  you  this  day  that  ye  shall  sure- 
ly perish. 

As  the  nations  which  the  Lord  destroyeth  before  your 
face,  so  shall  ye  perish  because  ye  would  not  be  obedient 
unto  the  voice  of  the  Lord  your  God." 

The  Report  of  the  Board  is  in  your  hands.  It  would  be  profitable  to 
this  Assembly  if  the  whole  of  it  could  be  read  to  you,  and  if  the  mis- 
sionaries could  tell  in  detail  of  their  work  and  their  success.  The  won- 
derful work  among  the  men  of  the  lumber  camps,  the  progress  among 
the  Indians,  the  obscure  and  commonplace  but  heroic  and  faithful 
work  of  the  men  and  women  who  toil  in  the  small  towns  and  villages, 
— these  are  the  history  of  the  year,  and  these  are  the  things  that  would 
thrill  our  souls  and  make  us  more  loyal  and  faithful  in  our  appointed 
places. 

Your  committee  presents  the  following  recommendations : 

1.  That  the  record  of  the  Board  be  approved. 

2.  That  the  following  persons  be  re-elected : 

Ministers.  Laymen. 

Rev.  D.  Stuart  Dodge,  D.  D.  Frank  L.  Babbott, 

Rev.  Lyman  W.  Allen,  D.  D.  Thomas  H.   Perrin. 

Rev.  Wilson  Phraner,  D.  D. 
Rev.  Henry  Sloane  Coffin,  D.  D. 
Rev.  C.  E.  Hays,  D.  D. 


310  APPENDIX.  [1909- 

3.  That  on  the  Sabbath  preceding  Thanksgiving  Day  an  offering 
be  taken  in  the  Sabbath  schools  for  mission  school  work,  and  on  the 
Sabbath  nearest  Washington's  Birthday,  for  the  work  of  evangeli- 
zation. 

4.  That  the  Church  be  asked  for  eight  hundred  thousand  dollars 
and  that  of  this  sum  not  less  than  three  hundred  twenty-five  thousand 
dollars  be  raised  by  the  churches  in  their  congregational  offerings. 

5.  That  the  work  of  the  Woman's  Board  be  recognized  and 
heartily  approved,  and  that  we  express  our  congratulations  at  the  im- 
mediate large  success  which  has  attended  their  efforts  to  raise  the  de- 
ficit incurred  during  the  past  year. 

6.  That  the  efforts  of  the  Board  through  its  departments  of 
Church  and  Labor  and  Immigration  be  commended  for  the  work  done 
among  the  foreign-speaking  people  and  the  beginning  of  the  work 
among  the  Jews. 

7.  That  the  action  of  the  Assembly  of  1906  be  re-affirmed  in  which 
it  is  recommended  that  wherever  practical  the  offices  of  Sabbath-school 
missionary  and  pastor-evangelist  be  combined  in  one  man. 

8.  That  the  Board  of  Flome  Missions  is  directed  to  take  over  and 
carry  on  the  work  heretofore  done  by  the  Permanent  Committee  on 
Christian  Work  among  Seamen  and  Soldiers.  The  Board  may  in  its 
discretion,  but  subject  always  to  its  oversight  and  direction,  commit  the 
immediate  management  of  such  work  to  any  body  of  experienced  men 
that  it  may  appoint,  who  will  serve  without  expense  to  the  Board.  The 
said  Permanent  Committee,  upon  transferring  to  the  said  Board  all  its 
property  and  effects  and  placing  in  the  possession  of  said  Board  all  its 
data  and  records  relating  to  its  work,  shall  be  discontinued. 

9.  That  the  Board  of  Home  Missions  shall  have  the  power  to  take 
title,  for  use  in  home  mission  work,  to  church  properties  in  Cuba,  Porto 
Rico,  the  Panama  Zone,  Alaska,  and  also  in  continental  United  States, 
which  may  be  given  or  devised  to  it,  or  which  it  may  purchase  with 
funds  specially  contributed  for  such  purpose. 

ID.  That  the  Board  of  Home  Missions  shall  be  the  agency  of  the 
Church  in  obtaining  data  concerning  her  relations  to  the  immigrant  and 
the  labor  problems.  Its  departments  of  Immigration  and  of  Church 
and  Labor  shall,  in  so  far  as  may  be  practicable,  upon  the  application  of 
any  local  church,  presbyterj'  or  synod,  study  such  problems  in  the  lo- 
cality to  which  the  application  relates,  outline  plans  for  local  work,  and 
aid  in  making  such  work  efficient. 

II.  That  the  Board  of  Home  Missions  shall  include  in  its  annual 
reports  to  the  General  Assembly  the  amounts  contributed  for  presby- 
terial  and  synodical  home  mission  work,  and  the  amounts  contributed 
for  the  general  work  of  home  missions.  The  amounts  contributed  for 
presbyterial  home  mission  work  shall  inchtde  what  is  expended  by  in- 
dividual churches  in  supporting  local  mission  work,  which  amounts 
such  churches  shall  duly  report  to  their  respective  presbyteries.  The 
contributions  to  presbj^terial  and  synodical  home  mission  work  shall  be 
annually  reported  to  the  Home  Mission  Board  by  the  respective  pres- 


1909- 1  ArrENOix.  311 

byteries  and  synods,  and  that  Board  shall  include  the  amounts  so  re- 
ported in  its  Annual  Report  to  the  General  Assembly,  in  such  form  that 
the  contributions  for  presbyterial,  synodical  and  general  home  mission 
work  may  be  stated  in  separate  columns ;  and  the  stated  clerk  of  the 
General  Assembly  shall  publish  a  summary  thereof,  by  presbyteries  and 
synods,  annually  in  the  Minutes  of  the  General  Assembly. 

12.  That  the  Board  of  Home  Missions  shall  transfer  to  its  field 
secretaries,  as  soon  as  may  be  deemed  expedient,  so  much  of  the  work 
heretofore  done  bjf  its  synodical  missionaries  as  in  the  judgment  of 
the  Board  it  should  continue  to  carry  on,  and  shall  discontinue  the 
services  of  all  its  synodical  missionaries  at  such  time  as  in  the  judg- 
ment of  the  Board  and  of  the  synods  affected,  such  discontinuance  will 
not  seriously  injure  the  work. 

13.  That  the  final  schedule  be  abandoned  and  that,  after  requiring 
a  detailed  estimate  of  the  need  of  the  presbytery  as  is  now  done,  the 
Board  make  the  lump  appropriation  as  at  present.  Then  leaye  to  the 
presbytery  the  duty  of  recommending  each  particular  church  for  such 
an  amount  as  it  may  think  best,  the  presbytery  taking  care  that  the 
total  amount  of  its  recommendations  during  the  fiscal  year  shall  not  ex- 
ceed the  amount  appropriated.  Where  the  amount  recommended  by 
the  presbytery  for  a  particular  church  exceeds  the  amount  which  in 
the  judgment  of  the  Board  should  be  paid  to  that  church,  then  cor- 
respondence shall  be  had  with  a  view  to  securing  agreement  as  to  the 
grant  to  be  made,  and  in  any  and  every  case  the  final  decision  must  be 
with  the  Board  as  responsible  to  the  General  Assembh'. 

14.  Whereas,  during  recent  years  there  has  been  great  progress  in 
synodical  self-support,  which  it  is  desirable  to  encourage  and  promote, 
and 

Whereas,  in  the  missionary  synods  there  is  a  growing  tendency  to 
presbyterial  self-support  on  the  part  of  the  stronger  presbyteries,  which 
should  be  so  directed  as  to  hasten  rather  than  retard  synodical  organi- 
zation for  home  missions,  and 

Whereas,  the  variety  and  importance  of  home  mission  problems 
now  pressing  upon  the  Board  and  upon  the  synods  demand  some  con- 
certed effort  for  their  solution,  so  that  all  the  agencies  engaged  in  this 
work  may  more  fully  meet  their  increasing  opportunities  and  responsi- 
bilities, and 

Whereas,  only  by  some  comprehensive  plan  can  the  unity  and  mag- 
nitude of  the  great  home  mission  cause  be  impressed  upon  the  Church; 

Therefore,  Resolved,  that  the  Executive  Commission  be  directed  in 
such  conference  with  the  Advisory  Council  as  both  bodies  may  think 
desirable,  to  take  into  consideration  the  whole  cause  of  home  missions 
in  all  its  relations  and  bearings,  and  to  report  to  the  next  General  As- 
sembly some  plan  by  which  greater  simplicity,  efficiency  and  unity  may 
be  secured. 

WILLIAM  L.  McE'WAN,  Chairman.

ACTION   OF  THE   GENERAL   ASSEMBLY. 


The  Seventy-second  Annual  Report  of  the  Board  of  Foreign 
Missions  and  the  manuscript  volume  of  its  Minutes  for  the 
year  ending  April  30,  1909,  were  presented  to  the  General 
Assembly  in  session  at  Denver,  Colorado,  May,  1909,  and 
were  referred  to  the  Standing  Committee  on  Foreign  Missions. 

The  Committee  presented  its  Report  to  the  General  Assem- 
bly, which  was  adopted.  The  Report,  condensed,  and  recom- 
mendations submitted,  is  herewith  presented: 

At  the  outset  we  recall  to  the  attention  of  the  Assembly 
the  loss  to  the  great  cause  of  world  evangeHzation  in  the  death 
ot  that  great  Christian  statesman,  the  veteran  Secretary  of 
the  Board,  Dr.  Francis  Field  Ellinwood,  who  for  twenty- 
seven  years  brought  breadth  of  vision,  keenness  of  judgment 
and  genuine  sympathy  with  the  difficulties  incurred  by  the 
workers  at  the  front,  never  surpassed  in  the  history  of  the 
Board.  We  would  also  note  the  death  of  Mr.  Darwin  R 
James,  for  twenty  years  a  faithful  member  of  the  Board  and 
tor  some  time  its  efficient  Vice-President;  and  of  the  Rev 
Uwight  h.  Potter,  the  zealous  Secretary  of  the  Western 
District. 

Along  with  these  serious  losses  in  the  working  force  at  home 
we  record  the  death  of  the  following  missionaries  on  the  field' 

M  T  t  Sn-^°P^'  °^  ^^'*  ^^"^^'  ^^^s.  E.  C.  Lobenstine,' 
Mrs.  John  Wherry  and  Mrs.  W.  L.  Berst,  all  of  China;  the 
Kev^  R.  H  Sidebotham,  of  Korea,  and  Mrs.  Wilham  Calder- 
^'7^'  of  North  India.  Most  notable  in  the  list  was  Dr 
Lalvm  W.  Mateer,  who  for  forty-eight  years  achieved  as  few 
men  have  done  in  the  work  of  emancipating  the  great  middle 
Kmgdom  of  China  by  prodigious  labors  in  evangelization  in 
education  and  m  translation  of  the  Word  of  God. 

"w-iT  "'^iJ^y.  ^^'^^^  ""'^o  ^I'oi^  their  labors  rest 
V\  ho  Thee  by  faith  before  the  world  confessed 
i  hy  name,  O  Jesus,  be  forever  blessed."

2  ACTION  OF  THE  GENERAT.  ASSEMBLY. 

Nearly  nineteen  centuries  ago  the  Apostle  Paul,  in  writing 
to  a  group  of  Christian  disciples,  stated  that  there  were  still 
some  at  that  time  who  knew  not  the  name  of  God,  and  added, 
"I  say  this  to  your  shame. "  What  would  Paul  write  to  the 
Christian  Church  of  the  twentieth  century,  with  millions 
upon  millions  still  in  this  darkness  of  death,  after  nineteen 
hundred  years  of  professed  allegiance  to  the  Christ  who  com- 
manded us  to  be  witnesses  unto  the  uttermost  parts  of  the 
earth  ? 

First,  let  us  note  the  work  here  at  home  in  connection  with 
the  task  of  sending  the  messenger.  Within  recent  years  a 
new  era  has  come  upon  us  in  the  lines  of  a  systematic  develop- 
ment of  methods  to  inform  and  inspire  the  Church  at  home. 
Conventions,  forward  movements,  special  campaigns,  special 
course  of  study,  new  features  of  organization,  the  awakening 
of  the  laymen — all  tell  of  a  better  day  on  this  side  of  the  task 
to  be  performed.  Men  are  coming  to  realize  as  never  before 
that  the  same  brains,  the  same  enterprise,  the  same  energy, 
the  same  largeness  of  plan  must  mark  the  work  of  the  King- 
dom of  Christ  as  now  mark  the  undertakings  of  men  in  the 
realm  of  commerce  and  statesmanship.  In  Illinois  this  year, 
Mr.  H.  P.  Crowell  has  offered  to  finance  a  campaign  to  reach 
every  church  member  of  the  Synod  in  behalf  of  this  cause. 
Every  such  special  effort  conduces  to  develop  a  spiritual 
quickening  among  the  members  of  the  Church. 

This  cultural  endeavor  has  resulted  in  the  bringing  of  a 
larger  sum  to  be  laid  upon  the  altar  this  year  than  in  any  year 
preceding.  More  than  eighty  churches  have  risen  to  the 
Omaha  standard  of  $5  per  member.  The  total  offerings 
this  year  amounted  to  $1,487,160.  Of  this  the  Women's 
Boards  brought  $460,730 — also  reaching  the  climax  of  their 
giving.  The  Board  was  enabled  to  meet  its  budget  for  the 
year  and  to  decrease  the  deficit  of  former  years  by  $65,000. 
In  the  face  of  this  cheering  outlook,  the  Board  proposes  a 
budget  for  this  year  which  will  allow  some  slight  increase  in 
the  working  force  of  missionaries,  about  five  per  cent,  increase 
for  native  workers,  and  some  additional  provision  for  the 
children  of  the  missionaries.  It  provides  nothing  for  ad- 
ditional residences,  though  many  are  greatly  needed. 

It  has  been  truly  said  that  this  Board  involves  the  depart- 
ments of  all  the  other  Boards,  for  it  has  the  stupendous  task 
of  maintaining  a  Christian  Church  in  its  varied  work  in  what- 
ever land  may  be  occupied.  We  note  these  departments, 
without  dwelling  upon  them:  First,  the  Evangelistic; 
second,  the  Medical;  third,  the  Educational;  fourth,  the  work 
of  Translation  and  Publication,  and  fifth,  the  Industrial 
Schools.  In  general,  it  may  be  said  that  in  most  of  the  coun- 
tries where  our  schools  are  planted  they  are  overcrowded. 


ACTION  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY.  3 

Some  years  ago  it  was  the  frequent  custom  to  give  induce- 
ments to  boys  to  attend,  but  now  the  schools  are  generally 
self-supporting,  because  parents  are  ready  to  pay  the  required 
fee  in  order  to  secure  the  desired  education. 

As  we  turn  to  study  the  present  status  of  affairs  in  the  vari- 
ous lands  to  which  we  are  sending  our  representatives,  we 
note  at  the  beginning  the  work  nearest  at  hand  in  Mexico, 
in  Central  and  South  America.  Latin  America  presents  some 
difficult  problems  more  or  less  familiar  to  all.  Adverse  cli- 
matic conditions  in  many  places,  direct  oi^position  of  the 
Church  of  Rome,  at  times  meagre  results  from  unflagging 
endeavors,  would  naturally  lead  some  discouraged  souls  to 
cry,  "How  long,  O  Lord?"  Yet  there  are  signs  of  a  better 
day.  Mexico  has  the  earnest  of  a  deeper  spiritual  experience, 
which  we  trust  may  spread  to  the  other  Spanish-speaking 
countries.  Efficient  schools  must  continue  to  be  multiplied 
in  these  fields,  as  perhaps  the  most  efficient  instruments  for 
enduring  progress. 

We  cross  to  the  Mediterranean  and  touch  the  land  lying 
under  Syrian  skies,  where  the  clouds  of  Turkish  revolution 
are  still  black  and  foreboding.  We  thank  God  that  our  own 
missionaries  have  escaped  the  sword  of  the  fanatical  Moham- 
medan, and  at  the  same  time  express  our  deepest  sorrow  and 
sympathy  in  view  of  the  horrors  which  have  recently  increased 
the  martyr-host  in  that  empire.  In  Persia,  which  like  Turkey 
is  writhing  out  of  the  intense  struggle  into  the  experiment  of 
constitutional  possibilities,  our  own  witnesses  for  Christian 
civilization  have  been  in  the  thick  of  the  fight.  We  are  proud 
of  their  Christian  patriotism  and  undaunted  zeal  in  behalf 
of  the  peoples  for  whose  spiritual  and  civil  welfare  they  have 
proved  ready  to  lay  down  their  lives.  The  fiercest  foe  of 
the  Gospel  of  Jesus  Christ  is  the  Mohammedan  world.  As 
civil  liberty  opens  the  way  to  religious  liberty  and  freedom 
of  speech,  the  rumblings  of  the  tottering  structure  will  be 
heard  wherever  the  muezzin  call  now  summons  to  prayer. 

From  the  Levant  we  turn  to  Africa,  which  is  stretching 
out  its  hands  unto  God.  In  our  West  Africa  Mission  every 
Church  and  forty-one  schools  are  self-supporting  and  Church 
membership  is  rapidly  increasing. 

In  recent  years  the  missionaries  have  been  constrained  to 
co-operate  with  every  effort  made  to  better  existing  conditions. 
The  story  of  the  atrocities  still  permitted  by  governments 
called  Christian  is  known  to  every  student  of  the  world's 
current  life.  Recently  tv/o  Presbyterian  missionaries  of 
the  Southern  Church  have  been  involved  in  a  suit  for  libel 
before  the  Belgian  Court  in  the  Congo  Free  State.  We  are 
glad  to  note  that  our  Government's  representative  is  keeping 
a  strict  and  sympathetic  watch  of  the  situation,  which  de-

mands  the  prayers  of  every  Christian  of  the  world  v/ho  beHeves 
in  righteousness  upon  the  earth. 

Passing  to  the  far  East,  we  find  India  stirred  by  two  great 
influences.  The  Hindu  peoples  in  that  land  are  filled  with 
a  somewhat  turbulent  unrest,  due  to  the  appreciation  of  the 
fact  that  other  Asiatic  peoples  are  surpassing  them  in  the  race 
for  self-government.  It  cannot  be  denied  that  these  revo- 
lutionary tendencies  are  somewhat  due  to  the  seed-planting 
of  the  Gospel  of  Christ,  whose  fruitage  is  ever  a  growing  place 
in  the  earth  for  liberty  and  all  its  fullest  blessings  in  the  life 
of  the  individual  and  the  State.  Therefore  we  rejoice  to 
report  that  in  the  midst  of  this  movement  among  the  Hindu 
peoples  an  unprecedented  work  of  grace  is  going  on.  The 
mighty  Spirit  of  the  living  God  has  wrought  a  deep  and  last- 
ing transformation  in  the  lives  of  thousands  of  Indian  Chris- 
tians, and  other  thousands  are  realizing  the  unescapable 
conviction  of  the  truth  of  the  Gospel  which  follows  such  a 
work  of  grace.  The  striking  characteristic  of  that  movement 
is  a  deeper  cleansing  and  a  consecrated  devotion  to  a  life  of 
prayer,  which  seems  for  the  past  four  years  to  increase  in  its 
intensity  with  the  passage  of  time. 

Our  survey  bends  down  to  the  edge  of  the  equator  as  we 
turn  to  study  the  report  from  Siam  and  the  Laos  country. 
Here,  too,  God  has  bared  His  arm  with  power.  The  Presby- 
terian Church  is  responsible  for  the  evangelization  of  that 
entire  country,  since  in  the  providence  of  God  the  field  is 
practically  left  to  us. 

The  Hon.  Hamilton  King,  our  Minister  from  the  United 
States  to  the  kingdom  of  Siam,  made  the  statement  to  visitors 
in  Bangkok  that  the  one  man  recognized  as  having  the  greatest 
influence  in  the  kingdom,  outside  of  the  royal  family,  is  a 
Presb^^terian  missionary,  Dr.  Eugene  P.  Dunlap.  It  was 
through  his  j^ersonal  influence,  with  the  Court  on  the  one 
hand  and  with  the  people  on  the  other,  that  this  sane  and 
strong  man  secured  the  abolition  of  legalized  gambling  in 
the  entire  kingdom,  excepting  the  one  province  in  which  the 
city  of  Bangkok  is  located. 

The  captain  of  one  of  the  ships  plying  from  Singapore  to 
Hong  Kong  was  speaking  slightingly  to  some  of  the  passengers 
of  missionaries  in  general.  Too  often  this  is  the  habit  of  these 
officials.  The  profanity  that  came  naturally  in  his  speech 
was  an  index  to  his  character.  One  of  the  passengers  asked, 
"Captain,  how  many  missionaries  have  3'-ou  met  personally?" 
Then  his  countenance  changed  and  in  glowing  terms  he 
described  a  journey  which  Dr.  McGilvary,  of  the  Laos  country, 
had  made  with  him.  He  declared  that  the  good  Doctor  was 
a  glorious  exception  to  the  general  rule  of  missionaries,  but 
upon  being  pressed  further  he  was  compelled  to  admit  that 


I

this  was  the  only  missionary  he  had  ever  actually  known. 
Let  the  casual  globe  trotter  take  note. 

When  we  turn  to  China  the  story  is  an  amazing  one.  It 
has  been  said,  and  not  denied  by  any  one  familiar  with  the 
facts,  that  China  has  witnessed  a  greater  revolution  in  the 
last  five  years  than  it  had  known  in  the  previous  5,000  years. 
Since  the  Boxer  uprising  the  transformation  is  almost  unbe- 
lievable. China  has  learned  that  its  best  friend  in  the  world 
is  our  American  Republic,  whose  great  Christian  statesman, 
John  Hay,  prevented  its  disintegration,  and  whose  fine  spirit 
of  Christian  justice,  evidenced  in  returning  the  unused  part 
of  the  Boxer  indemnity,  have  both  won  the  confidence  and 
gratitude  of  the  people.  The  promise  of  progress  in  the 
Christian  propaganda  was  never  so  bright  as  now.  During 
this  year  the  great  revival  v/hich  has  swept  up  into  Manchuria 
from  Korea  has  come  into  Northern  China  under  the  leader- 
ship of  Rev.  Mr.  Goforth,  a  Presbyterian  missionar}^  from 
the  Church  of  Canada. 

Japan  presents  an  interesting  and  critical  situation.  The 
rationalistic  wave  of  a  decade  and  more  ago  is  being  sup- 
planted by  a  return  to  an  evangelistic  emphasis.  This  year 
Japan  will  celebrate  the  fiftieth  anniversary  of  the  coming 
of  Christianity  to  its  shores,  and  it  is  to  be  celebrated  by  a 
great  evangelistic  campaign  which  is  to  extend  through  the 
empire.  A  deepening  prayer  life  has  been  God's  preparation 
for  this  campaign.  Not  long  ago  the  Japanese  Christians 
were  of  the  opinion  that  they  have  reached  the  place  for  auton- 
omy in  their  work,  and  there  was  a  danger  that  the  desire 
for  autonomy  vv^ould  affect  their  concern  for  evangelization. 
But  the  missionaries  are  wisely  adjusting  themselves  to  the 
situation,  and  the  outlook  is  hopeful  for  steady  progress 
toward  Christianizing  the  nation. 

The  m_ost  thrilling  story  of  the  spread  of  the  Gospel  in  Asia 
is  told  in  the  little  hermit  kingdom  of  Korea.  This  year  they 
celebrate  the  first  quarter  centennial  of  the  beginnings  of 
Christian  service  in  that  country.  No  twenty-five  years  in 
the  history  of  Christian  Missions  since  the  days  of  the  Apostles 
can  equal  the  actual  record  of  numbers  saved  and  of  approach 
to  self-support.  The  calibre  of  the  Christians  may  be  esti- 
mated by  the  fact  that  recently  one  village  voted  to  sell  their 
rice  and  live  on  millet  until  the  next  harvest.  It  would  be 
as  if  this  Assembly  voted  to  substitute  corn  bread  for  our 
wheat  loaf,  in  order  to  give  the  amount  thus  saved  for  the 
spread  of  the  Gospel. 

One  inore  point  of  observation  arrests  our  attention  in  the 
Philippine  Islands.  Whatever  men  may  think  as  to  whether 
we  ought  to  have  gone,  or  whether  we  ought  to  stay,  there  is 
only  one  thing  to  say  about  what  we  are  doing  while  we  are 


6  ACTION  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY. 

there.  The  Philippines  bid  fair  to  outstrip  even  Korea 
ere  its  quarter  century  is  reached.  In  ten  years  we  have  a 
Church  membership  of  10,000  souls,  and  indications  are  bright 
for  increasing  progress  in  every  phase  of  the  work. 

As  we  touch  our  own  shores  in  returning  from  the  Orient, 
we  find  that  it  has  sent  to  us  some  of  its  people.  On  both  of 
our  coasts  we  now  have  established  Mission  Stations  for  work 
among  these  Orientals,  and  they  are  proving  the  right  to  be 
by  the  harvest  of  good  coming  out  of  their  service. 

Such  is  a  sweeping  glimpse  of  the  field  to-day  as  it  waits 
for  the  Word  of  God,  to  know  whom  is  life  eternal.  But 
as  we  read  the  story  of  the  beginnings  of  the  work,  beginnings 
still  after  nineteen  centuries  of  Christian  history,  and  as  we 
think  of  the  hundreds  of  millions  who  have  never  had  the 
first  opportunity  even  to  know  of  the  Saviour  of  the  world, 
shall  we  not  hear  our  God  speaking  to  us  to-da}^  to  go  forward 
in  the  task? 

Shall  we  not  respond  to  His  call?  Shall  we  not  rise  to  the 
gigantic  past  with  a  new  consecration — rise  to  the  privilege 
with  a  great  and  splendid  vision  of  His  eager  readiness  to 
take  u.s  and  use  us  to  His  glory?  Shall  we  not  rise  to  the 
opportunity  with  a  heroic  and  undaunted  faith  in  His  omnipo- 
tent power  to  lift  the  whole  round  world  by  the  golden  chains 
of  His  redeeming  love,  until  it  is  bound  about  the  verv  throne 
of  God? 

"  He  is  sounding  forth  his  trumpet 
Which  shall  never  call  retreat ; 
He  is  sifting  out  the  hearts  of  men 

Before  His  judgment  scat. 
Oh,  be  swift,  my  soul,  to  answer  Him, 

Be  jubilant,  my  feet; 
Our  God  is  marching  on!" 

Your  Committee  would  offer  the  following 
Recommendations  : 

1.  Resolved,  That  we  find  the  records  of  the  Board  to  be 
accurately  and  attractively  kept,  and  that  they  are  approved, 

2.  Resolved,  That  the  Rev.  W.  R.  Richards,  D.D.,  the 
Rev.  Cleland  B.  McAfee,  D.D.,  the  Rev.  John  Fox,  D.D.,  the 
Rev.  E.  E.  Morris,  D.D.,  the  Rev.  Charles  Erdman,  D.D., 
iMr.  W.  P.  Stevenjyon  and  Mr.  Scott  Foster,  whose  terms  of 
office  expire,  be  re-elected  in  the  class  of  1909-12  and  the  elec- 
tion of  Mr.  Louis  H.  Severance  in  the  same  class  be  confirmed. 

3.  Resolved,  That  the  Assembly  expresses  its  hearty  appre- 
ciation of  the  faithful  services  of  the  officers  and  members  of 
the  Board,  who  have  brought  it  to  the  first  place  among  the 
missionary  agencies  on  this  continent,  and  to  the  place  of 


ACTION  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY.  7 

being  recognized  througliout  the  Mission  world  as  unsurpassed 
in  its  wise  and  sympathetic  administration  of  its  affairs. 

4.  Resolved,  That  the  Assembly  reiterates  the  appreciation 
expressed  by  many  former  Assemblies  regarding  the  remark- 
able devotion  and  continued  success  with  which  the  Women's 
Boards  and  Societies  are  conducting  their  splendid  work 
for  Foreign  Missions,  especially  during  the  year  just  past,  in 
which  their  receipts  exceeded  those  of  any  previous  year  by 
the  sum  of  $30,611. 

5.  Resolved,  That  since  two  honored  and  beloved  mis- 
sionaries of  the  Presbyterian  Church  in  the  United  States,  sta- 
tioned in  the  Kasai  District  of  the  Congo,  the  Rev.  William 
H.  Morrison  (white)  and  the  Rev.  W.  H.  Sheppard  (Africo- 
American),  are  about  to  be  brought  to  trial  before  the  Belgian 
Court  in  the  Congo  Free  State  on  a  charge  of  libeling  a  Belgian 
rubber  company,  and  since  the  Assembly  of  the  Presbyterian 
Church  in  the  U.  S.,  now  in  session,  has  appealed  to  President 
Taft  and  the  State  Department  in  their  behalf,  and  it  is  re- 
ported that  our  Government  will  be  represented  at  the  trial, 
this  Assembly  hereby  joins  in  the  request  to  our  Government 
to  protect  Drs.  Morrison  and  Sheppard  by  seeing  that  they 
have  a  fair  trial  and  a  just  verdict. 

6.  Resolved,  That  in  view  of  the  awakened  interest  and 
activity  of  the  men  of  the  Church  in  world-wide  evangeliza- 
tion, manifest  in  the  Laymen's  Missionary  Movement  and 
other  related  efforts,  such  as  the  Every  Member  Campaign 
in  Illinois,  we  would  cordially  commend  these  movements, 
and  call  upon  all  the  men  in  our  Church  to  join  the  growing 
ranks  of  Christian  laymen  who  are  marshaling  for  world  con- 
quest under  the  Cross  of  Christ. 

7.  Resolved,  That  we  commend  the  work  of  the  West- 
minster Guild  as  a  new  endeavor  to  develop  an  intelligent 
spirit  of  Missions  among  the  special  class  of  young  women 
who  are  being  interested  in  this  movement. 

8.  Resolved,  That  in  accord  with  the  recommendations  of 
former  Assemblies  for  several  years,  the  well-established  cus- 
tom be  continued  of  requesting  the  Sunday-schools  for  a 
special  offering  for  Foreign  Missions  at  Christmas,  and  both 
Sunday-schools  and  churches  for  an  Easter  offering. 

9.  Resolved,  That,  in  order  to  have  our  young  people  come 
to  an  adequate  knowledge  of  the  subject  of  the  world's  need 
of  the  Gospel,  and  the  responsibility  of  the  Church  to  meet  that 
need,  ever}^  Sunday-school  provide  adequate  missionary 
education  for  all  departments,  taking  advantage  of  the  ad- 
mirable helps  presented  by  the  Board. 

10.  Resolved,  That  we  appeal  to  the  whole  Church,  pastors, 
Sessions  and  people,  to  awake  to  the  vision  of  the  imperative 
need  of  the  whole  world  for  the  knowledge  of  the  only  Saviour,

and  to  enter  into  a  more  earnest  campaign  of  prayer,  of 
stewardship  and  of  service,  that  our  Divine  Lord  may  see 
of  the  travail  of  His  soul  and  be  satisfied. 

All  of  which  is  respectfully  stibmitted.

INTKODUCTION 

TO    THE 

SEVENTY-SECOND  ANNUAL  REPORT 

OF    THE 

BOARD     OF     FOREIGN     MISSIONS 

OF    THE 

PRESBYTERIA.N  CHURCH  IN  THE  U.  S.  A. 


The  Board  of  Foreign  Missions  herewith  presents  its 
Seventy-second  Annual  Report  to  the  General  Assembly. 

The  portrait  of  Dr.  Francis  Field  Ellinwood  on  the  frontis- 
piece of  the  report  records  the  fact  that  the  Board  has  been 
called  upon  to  mourn  the  loss  of  its  beloved  Secretary  Emer- 
itus, and  reminds  us  of  one  whose  life  has  been  woven  into  the 
very  fibre  of  missionary  history.  Until  the  very  day  of  his 
death  he  continued  his  interest.  With  Christian  character 
ever  strengthening  and  intellectual  acumen  unabated,  he 
watched  the  progress  of  the  work,  and  when  no  longer  able  to 
take  an  active  part  he  sustained  it  by  his  constant  prayer. 
He  died  September  30,  1908,  but  to  those  who  were  privileged 
to  know  him  he  will  ever  be  their  inspiration  and  guide. 

The  spiritual  results  of  the  year  have  been  the  best  in  the 
history  of  the  Board.  The  difficulty  of  obtaining  complete  re- 
ports from  the  Missions  has  been  felt  as  in  former  years,  so  that 
the  growth  of  the  work  numerically  must  be  in  part  estimated. 
Ten  thousand  communicant  members  were  added  on  the 
mission  field  last  year;  this  year  there  have  been  approximately 
14,409.  These  are  but  the  first  fruits  of  what  will  probably  bean 
ever-increasing  harvest.  India,  China,  Africa  and  the  Philip- 
pines report  that  there  are  signs  of  the  coming  of  a  wave 
of  spiritual  blessing  like  that  which  has  already  passed  over

10         SEVENTY-SECOND  ANNUAL  REPORT. 

Korea.  Elat,  in  the  African  Mission,  reports  on  a  recent 
Sunday  a  congregation  of  2,187  and  a  collection  of  257  marks. 
Corresponding  to  the  interest  abroad,  and  not  unlikely  as  a 
reflex  of  it,  there  has  been  a  manifest  awakening  at  home. 
The  Laymen's  Missionary  Movement  is  carrying  on  its  work 
with  accelerated  momentum  and  increasing  power.  The 
Churches  of  Canada  have  been  roused  as  never  before  by  a 
great  Interdenominational  Convention  held  in  Toronto,  and 
plans  are  now  being  projected  for  a  Laymen's  Campaign  in 
the  United  States  which  is  to  touch  the  churches'  life  at  the 
most  strategic  points.  Powerful  and  helpful  men's  gather- 
ings have  also  been  held  at  Birmingham,  under  the  auspices 
of  the  Southern  Presbyterian  Church,  and  at  Boston,  Mass., 
conducted  by  the  Laymen's  Mission,  in  which  our  Church 
gladly  co-operated. 

The  work  of  the  Board  in  the  home  field  has  been  pushed 
with  vigor  and  success.  Special  stress  has  been  laid  upon  the 
need  of  systematic  giving,  and  in  the  Eastern  District  a  deter- 
mined effort  has  been  made  to  lift  the  Board's  debt  of  last 
year.  This  attempt  was  born  in  the  heart  of  the  Chairman  of 
the  Pennsylvania  Synod's  Committee  on  Foreign  Missions, 
and  was  heartily  accepted  by  the  Chairmen  of  the  other 
Synods  of  the  Eastern  District.  The  Home  Department 
of  the  Board  and  the  Eastern  District  Secretary  organized  a 
well-equipped  campaign  and  the  result  has  been  a  substantial 
reduction  in  the  deficit. 

Eastern  District. 

In  addition  to  this  special  effort  for  the  deficit,  the  Eastern 
District  has  carried  out  plans  for  awakening  and  conserving 
the  interest  on  the  lines  emphasized  by  the  Forward  Move- 
ment from  the  first.  Aiming  to  have  every  member  obey 
the  will  of  the  head  of  the  Church  to  "go, "  either  personally 
or  potentially,  by  having  a  share  by  gift  and  prayer  in  the 
support  of  the  Parish  Abroad,  campaigns  of  information  and 
inspiration  have  been  conducted  through  297  churches,  in 
fifteen  Presbyteries.  In  this  visitation,  returned  mission- 
aries have  co-operated  effectively  with  the  Secretary  in  charge 
of  the  district.  The  plan  adopted  last  year  by  the  Foreign 
Missions  Committee  of  the  Synod  of  Ohio,  of  having  a  returned

missionary  serve  as  its  representative  among  the  churches, 
under  the  immediate  supervision  of  the  Foreign  Missions 
Committee  of  one  Presbytery  after  another  which  arranged 
for  such  service,  has  this  past  year  been  pursued  not  only  in 
Ohio,  but  Ukewise  in  the  Synods  of  New  York  and  Pennsyl- 
vania. With  the  co-operation  of  the  Presbyterial  Committees, 
a  classification  of  the  churches  has  been  made,  with  a  card 
catalogue  showing  the  condition  of  the  missionary  interest  in 
every  church,  both  as  to  the  organization  and  contributions. 
There  are  thirty-three  whose  Foreign  Missions  contributions 
average  S5  or  more  per  member,  twenty-three  of  $4,  thirty- 
six  of  $3,  eighteen  of  $2. 

The  Leaders'  Conference,  which  has  been  held  for  several 
years  at  Pocono,  Pa.,  having  reached  the  limit  of  accommo- 
dations available  there,  is  transferred  to  Mt.  Gretna,  Pa., 
where  this  year's  session  is  to  be  held,  August  31  to  September 
5.  At  this  conference  special  attention  will  be  given  to  the 
laymen's  part,  as  well  as  to  mission  study  and  the  interest  in 
Sunday-schools. 

The  Central  District. 
In  the  Central  District  the  Omaha  standard  of  $5  per 
member  has  been  the  gleam  that  has  been  followed.  Those 
who  have  questioned  the  practicability  of  attaining  this  goal 
must  modify  their  opinion,  in  the  face  of  what  has  been 
achieved.  The  fact  is  that  in  many  places  this  new  standard 
has  not  only  been  attained,  but  is  furnishing  a  new  apolo- 
getic. It  has  been  proved  both  practical  and  practicable. 
It  is  not  only  capable  of  being  attained,  but  its  attainment 
has  been  most  successful  in  accomplishing  the  real  object 
of  church  existence  and  organization.  More  than  half  a 
hundred  churches  have  already  enrolled  themselves  as  having 
attained  the  standard.  Others  have  set  the  standard  before 
them  for  attainment  and  are  steadily  working  up  to  the  goal. 
Whole  Presbyteries  and  Synods  are  at  work  under  the  leader- 
ship of  laymen  and  ministers  trying  to  urge  this  high  aim. 
Not  the  least  result  of  this  effort  has  been  the  manifest  revivi- 
fication of  many  of  the  churches.  In  almost  every  case  the 
churches  report  great  spiritual  delight  and  quickening.  At 
times  it  has  meant  the  salvation  of  the  churches  as  truly  as  the 
salvation    of    the    heathen    world.      It     has    enlarged    their 


12         SEVENTY-SECOND  ANNUAL  REPORT. 

hearts  and  minds  for  all  Home  Missionary  problems  and  obli- 
gations, it  has  brought  great  joy  to  the  hearts  of  pastors 
and  people. 

The  Western  District. 

The  Western  District  has  not  been  able  to  give  a  complete 
report.  Early  in  the  year  this  district  and  the  Church  at 
large  were  called  upon  to  suffer  a  grievous  loss  in  the  death 
of  Rev.  Dwight  E  Potter,  the  efficient  Secretary  of  the  Pacific 
Coast.  Overtaken  by  disease  which  had  long  threatened  him, 
he  worked  as  best  he  could  until  his  strength  failed,  and  then 
fell  asleep  with  a  prayer  for  the  work  he  left  upon  his  lips. 
His  place  has  not  yet  been  filled,  but  the  work  he  planned  has 
been  carried  forward  by  those  who  were  associated  with  him. 
In  Los  Angeles  a  special  effort  was  put  forth  under  the  leader- 
ship of  the  churches  to  reach  a  minimum  of  $5  per  member. 
In  connection  with  the  campaign  Dr.  Halsey  visited  the  Coast, 
as  did  also  the  Korean  missionaries,  who  have  been  carrying 
on  the  special  effort  to  meet  the  crisis  in  Korea.  By  this 
plan  there  has  been  little  interruption  in  Mr.  Potter's  work, 
and  there  is  a  very  real  sense  in  which,  though  he  has  gone, 
his  voice  is  not  silent. 

The  Southern  District. 

The  Southern  District  reports  as  follows:  On  account  of 
the  fact  that  much  of  the  country  is  new,  and  because  of  the 
shifting  of  policy  and  pastoral  changes,  there  have  been 
peculiar  difficulties  in  this  part  of  the  field.  In  spite  of  this, 
however,  there  are  encouraging  signs.  There  has  been  keen 
interest  manifested  since  the  meeting  of  Synods  last  Fall. 
The  people  are  showing  more  interest  at  Presbytery,  and 
reports  of  Committees  are  less  formal  and  more  pointed 
and  practical.  Pastors  and  churches  are  taking  more 
pains  to  inform  the  members  and  to  stimulate  them  to  larger 
giving.  The  pastors,  Sessions,  ladies'  missionary  societies 
and  Sunday-school  superintendents  are  appointing  regular 
members  and  are  presenting  carefully  prepared  programs 
for  missionary  meetings.  The  spirit  of  Missions  is  taking 
hold  of  the  men  in  our  congregations,  and  they  are  giving 
their  time  and  service  more  freely  than  ever  before.     Summer

conventions  were  held  at  Lebanon,  Tenn.,  July  27  to  30, 
and  at  Marshall,  Mo.,  August  19  and  20.  An  emphasis  has 
been  laid  upon  the  following  four  points:  (i)  Educational. 
The  formation  of  Mission  Study  Classes,  and  the  distribution 
of  literature.  (2)  Prayer  Offerings.  The  formation  of  prayer 
circles  in  the  local  churches,  to  the  end  that  these  circles  might 
become  living  sources  of  vitalizing  spiritual  power,  and  con- 
stant support  of  Missions  and  missionaries.  About  50  per 
cent,  of  the  Presbyterial  Chairmen  are  now  banded  together 
in  a  prayer  circle.  (3)  An  Offering  of  Life.  Pastors  have  been 
asked  to  preach  on  this  subject  and  call  for  recruits.  A 
number  of  young  people  have  volunteered,  and  the  Southern 
District  hopes  to  be  able  to  furnish  within  the  next  few  years 
its  quota  of  foreign  missionaries.  (4)  Financial  Offerings. 
The  subscription  method  and  the  taking  of  separate  subscrip- 
tions for  Foreign  Missions,  possibly  in  weekly,  monthly  or 
quarterly  installments,  has  been  and  is  being  urged  before 
pastors,  Sessions  and  Presbyteries.  Upon  the  whole,  while 
there  are  some  discouraging  things,  such  as  the  continued 
agitation  of  the  Union  question,  litigation  over  proper  divi- 
sion of  congregation  and  communities,  the  wilful  ignorance 
upon  the  part  of  thousands  of  our  people,  there  are  hopeful 
and  encouraging  signs,  and  we  take  courage  and  look  forward 
to  the  new  year  with  renewed  energy  and  enthusiasm. 

Educational  Work. 

The  Study  Class  work  of  the  Educational  Department 
shows  a  marked  increase  during  the  past  year.  The  total 
number  of  study  classes  for  the  whole  last  year  was  1,200. 
This  year  there  have  been  1,005  classes  during  eight  months — 
a  change  in  the  working  year  preventing  a  full  report. 
In  neither  case  do  the  figures  represent  all  the  work  being 
done  in  the  Presbyterian  Church,  since  there  are  always  many 
classes  which  do  not  send  in  reports.  Still  less  do  figures 
indicate  the  steady  increase  in  the  quality  of  the  work  done. 
Probably  in  no  department  of  religious  education  has  there 
been  such  careful  study  and  application  of  the  principles  of 
pedagogy. 

The  Department  has  co-operated  in  the  conference  of  the 
Young  People's  Department  of  the  Presbyterian  Church  at 


14  SEVENTY-SECOND  ANNUAL  REPORT. 

Lake  Winona  in  July,  1908,  as  well  as  in  the  usual  inter- 
denominational conferences  at  Silver  Bay  and  elsewhere. 
Normal  Classes  have  been  personally  conducted  in  several 
cities,  in  addition  to  briefer  visits. 

Two  Foreign  Missions  text-books  have  been  issued  for  the 
study  class  work  among  young  people  during  the  past  season, 
instead  of  one  as  formerly — "The  Moslem  World,"  by  Dr. 
S.  M.  Zwemer,  and  "The  Why  and  How  of  Foreign  Missions, " 
by  Dr.  A.  J.  Brown.  A  pamphlet  has  been  issued  to  accom- 
pany the  latter,  showing  how  its  material  can  be  presented 
at  missionary  meetings  in  a  semi-dramatic  form.  Besides 
the  usual  carefully  prepared  helps  for  leaders  which  accom- 
pany the  text-books,  a  booklet  of  nearly  150  pages  has  been 
published  on  the  pedagogy  of  the  study  class.  A  text-book 
for  a  grade  previously  unprovided  for  is  shortly  expected 
from  the  press,  "Servants  of  the  King,"  by  Mr.  R.  E.  Speer, 
a  series  of  biographical  sketches  written  for  young  people 
from  sixteen  to  eighteen. 

Dr.  Sailer  has  also  taken  up  correspondence  with  those 
who  are  at  the  head  of  our  educational  work  on  the  field,  in 
order  to  aid  them  in  obtaining  the  latest  and  best  informa- 
tion as  to  method  in  planning  their  work.  Much  is  hoped 
from  this  plan  in  enabling  our  schools  to  do  the  best  and  most 
efficient  work  at  this  hour  of  the  great  educational  crisis 
now  facing  our  Missions. 

Sunday-school   Department. 

In  the  Sunday-school  Department  encouraging  advances 
have  been  made.  Numerous  conferences  with  Sunday- 
school  workers  have  been  held  in  the  Eastern,  Southern  and 
Central  Districts.  The  emphasis  has  been  upon  practical 
methods  of  missionary  education,  upon  prayer  and  systematic 
giving  and  upon  missionary  service  as  a  life-work  for  Sunday- 
school  scholars.  The  result  has  been  that  many  schools  have 
undertaken  definite  missionary  instruction,  appointing  mis- 
sionary committees.  In  Lincoln,  Neb.,  an  interdenomina- 
tional movement  has  been  organized  for  the  promotion  of 
systematic  missionary  education  in  the  local  Sunday-schools. 

In  numerous  Presbyteries  the  Chairman  of  the  Foreign 
Missions  Committee  has  assigned  to  one  member  of  his  Com- 


SEVENTY-SECOND  ANNUAL  REPORT.  15 

mittcc  tlic  rcspoilsibility  of  developing  Missions  in  the  Sunday- 
schools,  and  with  such  persons  the  Sunday-school  Department 
of  the  Board  is  co-operating. 

A  very  appreciable  advance  has  been  made  in  the  numl)cr 
of  schools  using  the  special  Christmas  and  Easter  programs 
issued  by  the  Board,  and  the  contributions  in  consequence 
have  increased  accordingly.  To  these  schools  the  "Station 
Plan"  of  giving  is  being  presented,  and  its  manifest  advan- 
tages are  being  widely  recognized,  resulting  in  the  adoption 
of  this  plan  by  an  ever-increasing  number.  vSpecial  effort 
has  also  been  made  to  get  in  touch  with  the  non-contributing 
schools,  with  very  gratifying  results. 

A  new  stereopticon  lecture  for  Sunday-school  use,  entitled 
"Into  All  the  World,"  was  published  last  Fall  and  is  in  con- 
stant demand. 

Missionary  Publications. 

Besides  the  dissemination  of  information  through  special 
literature,  the  Board  has  sought  to  reach  the  churches  through 
the  Assembly  Herald  and  All  the  World;  this  latter  being  a 
quarterly  magazine  generously  provided  for  under  the  aus- 
pices of  the  Forward  Movement  Committee,  and  mailed  free  to 
those  who  contribute  $5  a  year  for  the  Foreign  Mission  work 
of  the  Presbyterian  Church;  also  through  the  women's  maga- 
zines. Woman's  Work  and  Over  Sea  and  Land.  The  Mission- 
ary Record  has  been  discontinued. 

The  Financial  Situation. 
9 
At  the  beginning  of  the  year  the  Board  faced  a  particularly 

heavy  responsibility.  Not  only  did  it  have  a  larger  budget 
to  raise  than  heretofore  (the  original  appropriations  May  i , 
1908,  and  those  added  during  the  year  were  $1,483,729.68), 
but  in  addition  it  was  compelled  to  provide  for  the  deficit  of 
$170,731.55.  Undaunted,  however,  by  this  task,  the  churches 
have  been  called  to  meet  the  responsibility,  and  while  the  re- 
sult has  not  been  to  wipe  out  the  deficit  entirely,  it  has  been 
such  as  to  be  a  cause  of  profound  gratitude  to  us  all.  The  in- 
come for  the  year  applicable  on  the  appropriations  was  $1,487,- 
160.77,  as  compared  with $1,314,213.51  from  the  same  sources 
the  year  before.     We  close  the  year  with  all  obligations  met  and 


16  SEVENTY-SECOND  ANNUAL  REPORT. 

S6 5, 2 5 0.5 5  paid  on  the  deficit.  In  trying  to  discover  the  cause 
of  this  splendid  increase  on  the  part  of  the  churches,  it  does  not 
seem  unfair  to  attribute  a  good  deal  of  it  to  the  manifest  awaken- 
ing on  the  part  of  the  men  and  the  steady  growth  of  the  habit  of 
systematic  giving.  It  would  not  be  right,  however,  in  speak- 
ing of  the  men's  work,  to  fail  to  mention  the  fact  that  in  all 
the  six  of  the  Women's  Boards  of  our  Church  there  has  been  a 
substantial  increase;  the  sum  total  of  their  offerings  being 
$460,730.16,  as  compared  with  $429,199.62  the  year  previous. 

Taking  the  situation  as  it  exists  into  account,  it  would 
seem  that  the  financial  outlook  of  the  Board  is  distinctly 
brighter  than  it  was  a  year  ago,  and  the  conditions  of  the 
country  seem  to  be  more  favorable  to  enlarged  giving  than  at 
that  time.  The  Board  has,  therefore,  increased  the  budget 
for  the  year  19 10,  fixing  it  at  $1,235,000,  to  provide  for  the 
needed  salaries  of  the  missionaries,  for  home  administration 
and  for  the  increase  of  children's  allowances.  This  will  also 
provide  for  sending  out  a  few  new  missionaries  to  fill  the 
more  urgent  places  made  vacant  by  death  and  resignation. 
Under  the  above  budget  there  is  only  provision  of  a  5  per  cent, 
increase  for  additional  native  work.  This  is  very  small,  con- 
sidering the  tremendous  opportunity  that  is  opening  and  the 
strong  appeal  which  is  coming  to  us  from  the  different  Missions 
to  strengthen  and  enlarge  the  native  work,  and  it  provides 
nothing  for  residence  or  other  necessary  property  require- 
ments. It  has  also  been  found  necessary  to  increase  the 
children's  allowance,  as  the  added  cost  of  living  in  these 
days  has  made  it  practically  impossible  to  supply  the. needs. 

It  should  be  stated  again  that  in  the  above  provision  no 
account  has  been  taken  of  the  requests  for  new  property, 
which  amounted  in  round  numbers  this  past  year  to  $660,- 
448  in  all  the  Missions.  This  can  only  be  provided,  as 
during  the  last  year,  by  special  funds  given  for  these  specific 
purposes. 

The  Missions, 

The  reports  of  the  various  Missions  need  not  be  recounted 
here  in  detail,  as  they  are  contained  on  the  following  pages. 
Several  facts  of  very  great  significance,  however,  should  be 
given.     Mention  should  be  made,  first,  of  the  almost  universal 


SEVENTY-SECOND  ANNUAL  REPORT.  17 

report  that  has  come  from  the  different  fields  of  increased 
interest  and  spiritual  growth.  The  story  of  Korea  does  not 
need  recounting;  it  has  become  known  throughout  the 
Christian  world. 

The^Philippine  Mission  reports  10,000  adult  communicants 
in  the  Presbyterian  Church  and  40,000  members  of  Protestant 
Churches. 

Africa  recounts  a  story  of  remarkable  ingathering,  and  there- 
are  beginning  to  be  reports  of  revivals  from  China  and  from 
India.  In  addition  to  the  numerical  ingathering,  one  should 
not  fail  to  mention  the  growth  in  self-support  that  is  being 
manifested  from  many  of  our  Missions.  In  Africa  practically 
all  the  churches  are  self-sustaining. 

There  are,  however,  other  signs  which  are  none  the  less 
pronounced,  although  a  little  harder  to  define.  The  most 
significant  thing  from  the  foreign  field  the  past  year  has  been 
the  tremendous  upheaval  governmentally  in  the  attempted 
establishment  of  the  constitutional  monarcliies.  While  this 
report  is  going  to  press,  the  whole  world  is  being  stirred  by 
the  revolutions  in  Turkey  and  Persia.  In  the  kind  Provi- 
dence of  God,  none  of  our  regular  missionary  force  has  been 
involved  in  the  massacres  that  have  taken  place.  It  would 
seem  that  in  the  coming  of  the  new  civilization  and  the  break- 
ing up  of  the  old  ice-bound  rivers  of  political  life,  we  could 
not  avoid  the  devastation  that  so  often  marks  the  freshets  of 
the  Spring.  The  report  from  our  missionaries  in  these  dis- 
turbed lands  is  one  long  cry  for  help  in  order  to  meet  the 
opportunities  which  these  changing  conditions  present  to 
them. 

Edinburgh  Conference. 

As  last  year  we  looked  back  and  reported  the  centen- 
ary missionary  conference  and  all  that  it  meant  as  signifying 
the  new  spirit  of  church  unity  and  advance  along  missionary 
lines,  so  this  year  our  faces  have  been  turned  forward  to  the 
World's  Missionary  Conference  which  will  be  held  in  Edin- 
burgh in  the  month  of  June,  19 10.  From  the  Prospectus 
of  the  Conference  the  following  is  of  interest: 

The  twentieth  century  has  opened  a  new  and  fateful  chapter  in 
the  history  of  the  world.  The  rapid  progress  in  the  unification  of 
the  world  is  one  of  the  most  startling  features  of  our  modem  life.     The 


18  SEVENTY-SECOND  ANNUAL  REPORT. 

problem  of  the  relations  of  the  different  races  to  one  another  threatens 
to  dwarf  all  other  problems  of  the  century.  Some  common  ground  on 
which  men  may  meet  in  the  spirit  of  brotherhood  mvist  be  found  if 
the  world  is  to  be  saved  from  disastrous  conflict,  and  the  Christian 
Church  is  called  to  accomplish  this  tremendous  task  through  the  asser- 
tion of  the  unity  of  mankind  in  Jesus  Christ. 

The  contact  of  the  East  and  West  is,  at  the  same  time,  giving  rise 
to  a  ferment  of  ideas  in  the  world  of  human  thought.  It  is  hardly 
possible  that  the  hoary  civilizations  of  Asia  should  be  subjected  to  the 
inrush  of  new  ideas  without  an  intellectual  upheaval  comparable  to 
the  movement  that  shook  the  lifa  of  Europe  at  the  Rennaissance,  and 
possibly  surpassing  it  in  the  far-reaching  influence  of  its  effects.  Such 
a  period  of  living  mental  activity  at  once  affords  an  exceptional  oppor- 
tunity for  the  rapid  spread  of  Christian  ideas,  and  constitutes  a  peril 
that  will  make  severe  demands  on  the  courage  and  faith  of  the  Christian 
Church . 

Of  no  less  significance  from  the  Christian  point  of  view  is  the  awaken- 
ing of  a  new  national  spirit  among  non-Christian  peoples.  If  en- 
lightened and  quickened  by  a  true  vision  of  Christ,  this  new  spirit 
may  be  the  means  of  regenerating  the  national  life;  while;  on  the  other 
hand,  if  Christ  should  seem  in  the  eyes  of  these  peoples  to  be  Western 
only,  it  may  build  up  barriers  that  may  exclude  His  Gospel  from  these 
lands  for  centuries. 

While  the  new  situation  thus  overwhelms  us  with  a  sense  of  crisis, 
it  at  the  same  time  opens  to  faith  the  inspiring  prospect  of  the  com- 
pletion of  the  body  of  Christ  through  the  ingathering  of  the  nations, 
and  of  a  richer  understanding  of  the  Son  of  Man  when  sons  of  men 
among  every  people  have  found  themselves  in  Him. 

In  the  presence  of  so  urgent  an  opportunity,  the  old  motives  impel- 
ling Its  to  missionary  effort  gain  an  added  strength.  Our  experience 
of  the  mercy  of  God  in  Christ,  the  command  of  our  Lord,  the  crjang 
need  of  the  world,  the  love  of  Christ,  these  things  still  constrain  us. 

The  magnitude  of  the  issues  at  stake  calls  for  conference.  Among 
different  branches  of  the  Church  there  is  a  growing  recognition  of  their 
obligation  to  the  non-Christian  world,  and  a  deepening  consciousness 
of  the  community  of  the  task  before  them.  The  attempt  must  be 
to  see  the  task  as  a  whole,  to  question  fearlessly  the  adequacy  of  exist- 
ing efforts  and  methods,  and  to  inquire  earnestly  how  we  may  most 
worthily  discharge  our  responsibilities.  In  our  consideration  of  the 
problems  that  have  to  be  solved,  there  is  much  that  we  can  learn  from 
one  another.  The  experience  painfully  gained  in  one  mission  field  will 
shed  light  upon  the  difficulties  that  are  being  met  with  in  another. 

In  these  circumstances  there  is  large  significance  in  the 
World  Missionary  Conference  to  be  held  in  Edinburgh,  June 
14-24,  1910.  About  1,200  of  the  most  eminent  Christian 
leaders  of  the  world  will  be  present,  and  the  whole  extraordi- 
nary situation  will  be  studied  anew.     The  purpose  is  not  so 


SEVENTY-SECOND  ANNUAT.  REPORT.  19 

much  to  congratulate  ourselves  on  the  achievements  of  the 
past  as  to  consider  defects  and  failures,  and  earnestly  and 
prayerfully  attempt  to  adjust  our  work  and  methods  to  the 
imperative  needs  of  the  hour.  We  commend  the  Conference 
to  the  special  prayers  of  the  Assembly  and  the  Church. 

Missionary   Tours. 

In  September,  igog,  there  will  be  celebrated  in  Korea  the 
twenty-fifth  anniversary  of  the  founding  of  the  Korea  Mission. 
Provision  has  been  made  through  the  generosity  of  a  friend 
of  the  Korea  Mission  for  one  of  the  Secretaries  to  be  present 
at  that  anniversary,  and  Dr.  Brown  will  leave  for  Korea 
about  August  i,  to  be  gone  for  four  and  a  half  months.  He 
will  also  be  able  to  hold  conferences  with  the  missionaries  in 
China  and  Japan,  and  take  up  with  them  some  of  the  questions 
that  are  pressing  for  solution.  In  addition  to  this,  the  insistent 
appeal  of  the  missionaries  in  South  America  for  a  Secretarial 
visit  has  been  answered,  and  Mr.  Speer  will  be  away  from 
the  5th  of  May  until  November,  visiting  all  of  the  South  Ameri- 
can fields.  As  this  is  the  first  Secretarial  visit  to  these  fields, 
we  are  looking  forward  with  great  anticipation  to  the  benefit 
which  it  will  be  to  the  Missions. 

Necrology. 
The  following  missionaries  have  died  during  the  past  year :

20  SEVENTY-SECOND  ANNUAL  REPORT. 

-|j|The  Board  was  also  called  upon  to  bear  the  loss  of  one  who 

had  not  only  been  a  member  for  many  years,  but  also  the  Vice- 
President  of  the  Board,  namely,  Hon.  Darwin  R.  James. 
After  a  short  illness  Mr.  James  passed  away  suddenly  on 
November  19,  1908.  A  quiet  and  retiring  man,  but  forceful 
because  of  a  judicial  mind  and  a  quiet  faithfulness  that  led 
him  to  fill  every  responsibility  with  unfailing  constancy. 

Elections. 

Mr.  Warner  Van  Norden  was  elected  Vice-President  of 
the  Board  to  succeed  Mr.  James,  and  Mr.  Louis  H.  Sever- 
ance was  chosen  to  fill  the  vacancy  in  the  Board ;  his  election 
being  subject  to  the  action  of  the  General  Assembly.  The 
Board  would  respectfully  request  the  confirmation  of  Mr. 
Severance's  election  and  the  re-election  of  the  following  mem- 
bers of  the  Board,  whose  terms  of  office  expire  with  this  meeting 
of  the  Assembly: 

Rev.  W.  R.  Richards,  D.D.,  Rev.  Charles  R.  Erdman, 

Rev.  Cleland  B.  McAfee,  D.D.,  Mr.  Louis  H.  Severance, 

Rev.  John  Fox,  D.D.,  Mr.  W.  P.  Stevenson, 

Rev.  E.  E.  Morris,  Mr.  Scott  Foster. 

European  Work. 

The  General  Assembly  of  1907  directed  the  Board  to  report 
to  the  Assembly  as  to  the  feasibility  of  active  co-operation 
with  other  Boards  in  apportioning  the  work  in  Europe,  with 
a  view  to  the  maintenance  of  the  established  work  and  the 
organization  of  new  work.  In  1908  a  partial  investigation 
of  the  subject  led  to  a  request  for  another  year  in  which  to 
give  the  matter  further  consideration  and  investigation.  The 
whole  matter  has  been  taken  up  and  a  careful  study  has  been 
made  by  the  Board's  Committee  on  Policy  and  Methods  in 
connection  with  the  Council.  The  following  has  been  the 
outcome  of  the  investigation,  which  was  approved  by  the 
Board: 

The  Committee  had  before  it  the  reports  of  the  General  Assembly's 
Committee  on  Presbyterian  Work  in  Europe  presented  to  the  last  two 
General  Assemblies,  with  the  resolutions  adopted  by  the  General 
Assembly.  It  had  before  it  also  (i)  the  resolutions  adopted  by  the 
Annual  Conference  of  Mission  Boards  o   the  United  States  and  Canada

accompanied  by  letters  from  Prof.  Clemen,  President  of  the  Inter- 
national Committee  for  the  Promotion  of  the  Evangelical  Churches 
in  Bohemia. 

The  reports  of  the  General  Assembly's  Committee  on  Presbyterian 
work  referred  to  three  questions:  (i)  Should  the  Presbyterian  Church 
establish  Foreign  Missions  on  the  Continent  of  Europe?  (2)  Should 
the  Presbyterian  Church  give  aid  to  the  Reformed  Churches  on  the 
Continent  ?  (3)  What  should  be  done  for  the  religious  care  of  Ameri- 
can residents  in  Europe,  and  for  the  assistance  of  the  English-speaking 
churches  now  established? 

The  General  Assembly,  in  adopting  the  Report  of  the  Committee 
on  Presbyterian  Work,  voted  "That  our  Foreign  Mission  Board  be 
requested  and  directed  to  report  to  the  Assembly  as  to  the  feasibility 
of  active  co-operation  with  other  Boards  in  apportioning  the  work  in 
Europe,  with  a  view  to  the  maintenance  of  established  work  and  the 
organizingof  new  work"  (MV«m<^5,  General  Assembly,  1907),  and  voted, 
further,  "That  should  the  Foreign  Board  decide  to  undertake  this 
work  (the  maintenance  of  English-speaking  churches  for  American 
residents  and  travelers  in  Europe)  before  the  next  meeting  of  the 
Assembly,  this  Committee  (the  Committee  on  Presbyterian  Work 
on  the  Continent)  be  discharged  as  no  longer  necessary"  {Minutes, 
General  Assembly,    1908). 

Your  Committee  recommends  the  following  action: 

I.  That  it  is  inexpedient  at  the  present  time  for  the  Board  of 
Foreign  Missions  of  the  Presbyterian  Church  in  the  U.  S.  A.  to  estab- 
lish Foreign  Missions  on  the  Continent  of  Europe  for  the  following 
reasons : 

(a)  The  Presbyterian  Church  has  already  more  foreign  missionary 
responsibilities  than  it  is  discharging. 

(b)  The  primary  responsibility  for  work  in  Europe  rests  upon  the 
Evangelical  Churches  of  Great  Britain  and  the  Continent,  which 
have  recognized  this  obligation  and  which  in  turn  leave  the  vast  work 
to  be  done  on  the  western  hemisphere  to  the  American  and  Canadian 
Churches. 


22  SEVENTY-SECOND  ANNUAL  REPORT. 

(c)  The  establishment  of  Foreign  Missions  in  Europe  by  the  Ameri- 
can Churches  is  regarded  by  the  Evangehcal  Churches  on  the  Continent 
and  Great  Britain  as  an  unwise  and  harmful  policy. 

II.  But  there  is  need  of  friendly  help  in  behalf  of  the  Reformed 
Churches  on  the  Continent,  and  the  Evangelical  Churches  of  Great 
Britain  and  America  should  show  a  large  sympathy  for  their  brethren 
in  the  Continental  countries.  The  Board,  however,  cannot  make  any 
provision  for  such  help  out  of  its  wofuUy  inadequate  income;  but  it 
is  cordially  ready  to  receive  and  forward  any  special  designated  gifts 
for  these  churches  and  their  work,  provided  that  the  agents  to  whom 
the  money  is  to  be  sent  and  the  objects  of  work  to  which  it  is  to  be 
devoted  are  officially  authorized  by  the  highest  ecclesiastical  courts 
of  the  Churches  concerned,  and  approved  by  the  General  Secretary 
and  Executive  Committee  of  the  Presbyterian  Alliance.  In  acting 
thus  for  these  interests,  the  Board  could  not  assume  any  responsibility 
beyond  that  of  accounting  for  the  receipt  of  funds  and  transmitting 
them  to  the  authorized  agent. 

III.  With  reference  to  the  Churches  in  Ei:rope  for  American  travel- 
ers and  residents,  it  appears  to  the  Committee  that  it  would  be  unfor- 
tunate if  each  denomination  were  to  establish  churches  in  the  various 
cities  of  Europe,  as  would  be  the  case  if  each  body  is  to  seek  to  care 
separately  for  its  own  members  or  to  do  the  work  in  question  single- 
handed.  It  seems  to  us  that  this  important  work  should  be  in  the 
hands  of  an  interdenominational  Committee,  like  the  Committee  on 
the  Religious  Needs  of  Anglo-American  Communities  on  Mission  Fields , 
appointed  by  the  Annual  Conference  of  Foreign  Mission  Boards  of  the 
United  States  and  Canada,  which  establishes  and  maintains  union 
churches  in  the  port  cities  of  Asia,  or,  if  this  is  impracticable,  that  it 
should  be  looked  after  by  the  Committee  on  European  Work  of  the 
Western  Section  of  the  Presbyterian  Alliance,  in  co-operation  with 
the  Continental  Committee  of  the  United  Free  Church  of  Scotland, 
which  already  maintains  more  than  a  score  of  Presbyterian  congre- 
gations for  English-speaking  people  on  the  Continent. 

The  Board  would  also  report  that  the  Rev.  Cleland  B. 
McAfee,  D.D.,  while  spending  an  extended  time  on  the  Conti- 
nent, improved  the  opportunity  for  personal  investigation 
of  this  matter  of  the  work  on  the  Continent  of  Europe.  Upon 
his  return  he  spoke  with  unquestioned  endorsement  of  the 
action  which  this  Board  herewith  recommends  to  the  General 
Assembly. 

The  last  General  Assembly,  through  its  Committee  on  Bills 
and  Overtures,  to  which  was  referred  the  Report  of  the  World 
Alliance  of  the  Presbyterian  and  Reformed  Churches,  called 
attention  to  the  Board  to  the  religious  needs  of  the  English- 
speaking  residents  in  heathen  lands  and  the  necessit}^  of  pro- 
viding for  them, 


SEVENTY-SECOND  ANNUAL  RErORT.  23 

The  Assembly  urged  the  Board  to  sohcit  special  funds  for 
the  work  from  those  who  have  commercial  interests  in  East- 
ern countries  and  to  endeavor  to  place  ministers  in  the  several 
cities.  The  Board  is  happy  to  report  that  the  matter  has 
been  taken  up  by  the  Conference  of  Foreign  Mission  Boards 
in  the  United  States  and  Canada,  and  that  this  work  has  been 
put  under  the  care  of  a  special  Committee  which  is  efficiently 
carrying  on  the  work. 

In  closing  this  report,  the  Board  of  Foreign  Missions  feels 
called  upon  to  express  its  deep  sense  of  responsibility  as  it 
realizes  not  only  the  great  favor  of  God  in  the  past,  but  also 
the  tremendous  opportunity  which  is  being  opened  for  the 
future.  It  would  call  the  Church  to  an  awakened  sense  of  its 
duty  and  remind  it  that  there  are  certain  crises  which,  if  met, 
become  tremendous  factors  in  the  forward  movement  toward 
the  upbuilding  of  Christ's  Kingdom,  but  which,  if  neglected, 
can  never  be  improved  again. 

' '  There  is  a  tide  in  the  affairs  of  men 
Which,  taken  at  the  flood,  leads  on  to  fortune; 
Omitted,  all  the  voyage  of  their  life 
Is  bound  in  shallows  and  in  miseries. 
On  such  a  full  sea  are  we  now  afloat; 
And  we  must  take  the  ci:rrent  when  it  serves, 
Or  lose  our  ventures.  " 

Stanley  White.

WEST   AFRICA  MISSION. 

Once  more  vvc  are  able  to  report  that  the  Government  author- 
ities and  the  missionaries  are  working  hand  in  hand  for  the 
ameHoration  of  the  people  of  Africa. 

In  Congo  Francais  the  Commissioner  General  of  the  colony 
has  co-operated  with  the  missionaries  in  restricting  the  sale  of 
liquor  to  the  native  peoples.  Officials  in  Spanish  Guinea  have 
shown  themselves  most  friendly  to  the  work  of  the  Mission. 
In  German  Kameruns  the  Governor  was  so  pleased  with  the 
work  done  by  the  boys  in  the  carpentry  class  at  the  Elat  In- 
dustrial School  that  he  offered  to  furnish  employment  at  once 
to  any  of  the  graduates  of  the  school. 

The  admirable  report  for  the  year  presented  herewith  was 
written  by  a  missionary  and  needs  no  comment.  It  speaks  for 
itself.  We  commend  it  to  all  who  rejoice  in  the  progress  of 
the  kingdom. 

Every  church  is  self-supporting.  Forty-one  village  schools 
entirely  self-supporting.  Church  membership,  the  roll  of  in- 
quirers, and  church  attendance  on  the  constant  increase.  It 
has  been  a  phenomenal  year  for  the  West  Africa  Mission.  We 
can  only  thank  God  and  take  courage. 

A  new  Station  has  been  opened  at  Metet  largely  through 
the  generous  gifts  of  the  missionaries  themselves.  It  is  to  be 
manned  at  present  entirely  by  native  Christians.  The  total 
offerings  from  the  native  Christians  for  the  year,  in  gold, 
amount  to  $5,889,  and  that  from  poor  Africa! 

The  West  Africa  Mission  is  66  years  old.  It  has  to  do  with  a  coast 
people  who  bear  the  mark  of  the  Spanish,  the  Portuguese,  the  Dutch, 
the  German,  the  French  and  the  EngHsh  these  300  years,  and  with  a 
forest  people  of  a  primitive  simplicity. 

The  fruits  of  a  Mission  that  has  to  do  with  a  coast  people  and  a 
forest  people  are  not  uniform.  But  they  are  growing.  Up  and  down  the 
seaboard  from  Kribi  to  Gaboon  in  the  native  manned  churches  they  are 
growing,  and  far  and  wide  in  the  forest  they  grow.  "The  best  year" — 
calls  little  Hanje  Church  by  the  sea — "that  ever  I  had!"  and  from  Elat, 
that  young  Station  furthest  inland,  on  the  ist  of  November  there  rose 
to  God  from  out  of  the  forest  a  song  of  praise  1.600  strong. 

Truly  the  spirit  of  God  is  abroad  in  this  land.  The  missionary  would 
share  the  joy  of  this  knowledge  with  the  Church  at  home.  He  writes 
his  report,  he  fills  in  the  statistics  so  wonderful  in  his  eyes,  and  he 
strives  to  recreate  in  words  the  life  that  he  sees.  But  the  best  of  it 
he  may  not  communicate,  the  vital  touch  with  the  thousands  of  beach 
people — the  thousands  of  forest  people — who  have  paused  in  their  fish- 
ing and  in  their  hunting — in  their  trading  and  in  their  carrying — to 
think  about  the  things  of  God  and  who  have  fallen  to  shaping  their 
lives  anew.    May  God  give  body  to  the  report  which  is  here,  that  the 

29 


30  WEST  AFRICA. 

Church  at  home  may  see  "with  the  eyes  of  the  heart"  the  canoes  that 
come  by  the  waterways,  the  caravans  that  pass  by  the  highways,  the 
long  files  that  come  by  the  lesser  paths  out  of  the  forest  to  the  Sta- 
tions. May  these,  and  the  lads  and  the  girls  busy  with  their  simple 
lessons  and  the  tools  of  honest  labor,  and  the  woman  who  ponders 
under  the  eaves  of  her  hut  or  questions  the  missionary  as  he  rests 
there  at  the  noon  hour,  speak  promise  to  those  who  care  for  the  souls 
of  their  brethren. 

They  bring  gifts.  This  has  not  always  been  so.  Not  so  long  since 
the  African  Church  was  thought  to  be  the  most  impoverished  and 
helpless  of  Churches,  impotent  from  the  standpoint  of  self-support. 
Four  years  ago  there  was  formed  the  first  committee  on  self-support ; 
to-day  the  fifteen  churches  and  the  forty-one  village  schools  are  virtu- 
ally self-supporting. 

Corisco,  the  island  mother  of  the  churches,  with  her  loo  members, 
comes  up  from  the  sea  with  her  $300. 

After  her  there  follow  the  coast  churches,  rising  from  their  long 
ease,  and  after  these  the  young  churches  of  the  forest,  until  the  young- 
est of  these  at  Lolodorf,  sitting  in  the  church  she  has  built  to  her  new 
found  Lord,  gives  out  of  her  primitive  circumstance  $155.  Twenty-four 
hundred  dollars  is  the  treasure  gathered  from  the  sea  and  the  forest 
in  the  past  year  by  the  fifteen  churches,  and  this  is  marvelous  in  the 
eyes  of  those  who  report  it  and  who  four  years  ago  had  little  enough  to 
report. 

Back  again  by  the  waterways  and  by  the  paths  in  the  forest  go  the 
evangelists  sent  by  the  African  churches  to  alien  and  once  hated  tribes. 
Back  again  go  the  young  teachers  to  the  forty-one  bark-built  school- 
houses,  which  the  townspeople  have  built  that  their  children  may 
surpass  themselves  in  knowledge,  and  where  in  the  remote  places  of 
the  forest  there  are  found  those  who  buy  that  true  bread. 

In  these  days  there  begins  to  be  a  great  business  in  industrial  train- 
ing. It  is  a  far  cry  from  the  little  girls  at  the  Baraka  school,  who 
wash  and  sew  and  plant  and  reap,  to  Elat,  where  two  white  men  direct 
the  planting  in  the  great  clearing  about  the  Station,  and  the  sawing 
out  of  lumber  in  the  pits,  the  building  of  houses  and  the  construction 
of  furniture,  where  the  carpenter  class  and  the  tailor  class,  having 
swiftly  passed  from  the  experimental  stage,  have  no  apologies  to  make 
but  many  promises  to  oflfer,  and  from  whom  the  Station  has  already 
received  a  substantial  beginning  of  benefits.  Now  shall  the  ivories  and 
the  ebony,  the  red-wood,  the  mahogany,  the  rattan,  the  cocoa,  the  rub- 
ber, and  the  latent  powers  of  the  race  and  their  energies  that  lie  waste, 
now  shall  these  be  cultivated  and  shaped  to  uses  that  shall  benefit  the 
Mission  materially,  and  that  shall  immeasurably  bless  the  people  in  the 
power  to  earn  an  honest  way. 

So  much  of  progresi  we  report  in  a  work  that  has  been  inadequately 
manned — not  adequately  manned  at  any  point,  and  at  some  points  so 
pitifully  manned  as  to  transmute  the  mere  holding  on  into  a  formidable 
achievement.  Five  or  six  years  ago,  before  the  short  term  of  service  and 
the  better  health  conditions  were  in  force,  such  a  year  of  enforced  effort 
as  this  last  would  have  scored  its  tragedies.  This  year  the  Mission  has 
been  happily  free  from  serious  illness  resultant  upon  work,  with  the 
exception  of  the  illness  of  Mrs.  Adams,  who  suffered  a  severe  attack  of 
lisemoglohinuria  and  who  is  restored. 

On  May  2,  after  a  short  illness.  Mrs.  Hope  was  called  to  God.  and 
the  Mission  was  left  to  mourn  the  loss  of  one  whose  young  life  promised 
much  to  the  Master's  service.  During  her  few  months  in  Africa  she 
had  won  a  warm  place  in  the  hearts  of  her  associates,  and  it  had  been 
confidently  expected  that  she  would  become  one  of  the  most  useful 
members  of  the  Mission.  But  God's  ways  are  not  our  ways.  We  still 
feel  her  loss  too  keenlv  for  manv  words.

32  WEST  AFRICA— BARAKA. 

ANGOM  STATION. 

Angom  was  opened  two  years  ago  after  a  closure  of  several  years. 
This  Station,  situated  on  a  branch  of  the  Gaboon  River,  sixty-five  miles 
from  the  coast,  has  easy  access  by  waterways  to  a  large  territory  and  to 
tribes  not  yet  corrupted  by  contact  with  the  vices  of  civilization.  The 
Fang  people  have  exhibited  during  the  past  year  an  increasing  interest 
and  a  spirit  of  helpfulness.  From  many  little  Macedonias  on  the  river- 
ways  has  come  a  call  for  help.  But  this  has  been  a  hard  year  at  Angom 
Station.  The  force  from  January  to  June  consisted  of  Mr.  and  Mrs. 
Wright,  and  from  September  to  November  of  Mr.  Wright  and  Mr. 
Hickman.  The  river  work  and  the  Station  are  served  by  the  launch 
"Dorothy,"  and  she  has  been  under  repairs  at  Baraka  a  large  part  of 
the  3-ear.  The  missionary  in  charge  of  the  launch  is  not  a  machinist, 
but  he  has  all  the  air  and  all  the  duties  of  such  during  the  months 
from  June  to  November.  It  was  a  happy  day  for  the  members  of 
Angom  Station  when  the  "Dorothy"  "lived"  again. 

EVANGELISTIC. — During  those  months  when  the  missionaries 
were  at  the  Station  all  regular  services  were  held.  The  meetings  of  the 
inquiry  class  were  marked  by  an  increased  interest  on  the  part  of  the 
boys  and  young  men.  Eight  young  men  expressed  their  desire  to  be- 
come Christians.  Communion  services  were  held  in  the  upper  river 
villages.  Robert  Boardman,  the  blind  Mpongwe  catechist,  came  and 
went  among  the  Fang  villages  throughout  the  year. 

EDUCATIONAL. — Two  terms  of  school  were  held,  the  first  of 
three  months  with  an  enrollment  of  forty ;  the  second  of  six  weeks 
with  an  enrollment  of  thirty.  All  the  school  children  were  secured 
within  a  radius  of  fifteen  miles  of  the  Station.  A  petty  war  between 
two  of  the  towns  on  the  road  leading  to  the  interior  prevented  the 
children  from  coming  to  school  from  that  direction.  No  French  was 
taught  in  the  school  during  the  first  term,  but  the  second  term  fared 
better,  for  Baraka  loaned  this  Station  a  young  Mpongwe  lad,  trained 
in  their  school,  who  conducted  a  French  department.  The  experience 
of  the  Station  this  year  confirms  that  of  the  past  and  deepens  the  sense 
of  dependence  upon  the  launch  as  a  means  of  working  this  great 
region  of  waterways. 

BARAKA   STATION. 

Baraka  Station  has  been  established  for  over  sixty  years  among  one 
of  the  most  intelligent  and  gentle  of  the  West  Coast  tribes. 

The  force  consisting  of  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Ford  for  the  first  part  of  the 
year  was  increased  in  July  by  the  arrival  of  Miss  Mackenzie.  One  man 
at  a  Station  cannot  successfully  maintain  all  the  varied  forms  of  work, 
but  there  has  been  encouraging  progress  along  certain  lines. 

EVANGELISTIC— Eighteen  months  ago  Licentiate  Ntuakero  died 
of  the  sleeping  sickness,  leaving  the  Baraka  Church  without  a  pastor. 
This  year  the  ii8  church  members,  under  the  leadership  of  the  evan- 
gelist Iguwi,  have  met  to  worship,  have  brought  in  of  their  little  sav- 
ings to  the  amount  of  $139,  have  gone  about  the  villages  speaking  the 
word  of  God,  unshepherded  but  not  unblessed.  Four  members  have  been 
added  to  the  church.  The  church  services  have  been  conducted  in  the 
main  by  Iguwi,  and  to  the  missionaries  has  fallen  the  care  of  the  cate- 
chumen classes,  the  teachers'  class,  the  English  and  the  French  Bible 
classes.  Of  a  Sunday  afternoon  thirty  or  more  of  the  church  mernbers 
have  held  meetings  in  the  villages  assigned  to  their  care.    It  is  believed 


,    WEST  AFRICA— BENITO.  33 

that  the  eight  new  members  of  the  catechumen  class  are  the  fruits  of 
these  meetings.  The  women  continue  to  hold  weekly  meetings  in  the 
villages. 

The  Woman's  Missionary  Society  has  studied  this  year  the  work  of 
the  different  Boards  of  the  Presbyterian  Church,  that  they  might  gain 
some  sort  of  simple  knowledge  of  the  duties  and  responsibilities  of 
Christians.  To  this  end  material  gathered  in  English  is  given  to  those 
of  the  women  who  are  able  to  translate  it  into  their  own  tongue,  and 
many  of  them  do  this  very  creditably.  The  monthly  offering  has 
amounted  this  year  to  $20. 

EDUCATIONAL. — Believing  the  supreme  need  of  the  tribes  in 
this  vicinity  to  be  the  education  and  the  consecration  of  their  young — 
that  there  may  be  men  and  women  to  take  the  place  of  those  servants 
of  God  who  have  led  their  people  in  the  past— the  Station  has  concen- 
trated on  the  school  work  every  member  of  the  force  and  has  worked 
to  this  end,  and  the  result  has  been  gratifying.  A  more  fixed  and  prac- 
tical curriculum  has  been  achieved,  a  more  regular  attendance  has  been 
enforced  and  a  fee  of  30  cents  per  month  has  been  collected,  no  mean 
sum  in  the  hands  of  a  Mpongwe,  nor  in  the  hands  of  the  Station,  where 
it  has  amounted  to  $147. 

The  assistant  teacher,  a  young  Mpongwe  and  a  Baraka  schoolboy, 
has  held  the  first  place  in  the  night  class  of  the  Government  Normal 
school.  He  is  a  skillful  and  a  helpful  teacher.  Among  the  thirty  odd 
boys  and  the  girls  who  have  been  in  the  school  this  year  there  should 
be  some  who  will  prove  to  be  leaders  and  helpers  of  their  people. 
Given  continuity  and  the  Baraka  School  will  demonstrate  with  honor. 

INDUSTRIAL. — The  boys  have  been  busy  at  a  hundred  neccessary 
jobs  overcoming  the  common  African  enemies — growth  and  decay — 
thej'^  have  cut  down  and  they  have  repaired.  It  has  not  been  possible 
to  give  them  technical  industrial  training.  The  girls  have  fared  well. 
They  have  been  thoroughly  trained  in  cooking,  sewing  washing  and 
ironing.  Their  skill  along  these  lines  has  been  profitable  to  the  amount 
of  $21. 

RELATIONS  TO  THE  GOVERNMENT.— These  have  continued 
to  be  cordial,  the  Lieutenant  Governor  giving  practical  evidence  that 
he  is  readj'^  to  co-operate  with  the  Mission  in  promoting  the  physical 
welfare  of  the  people.  Gentil,  the  Commisaire  General  of  the  colony, 
to  whom  the  Station  presented  last  year  a  petition  on  behalf  of  the 
restriction  of  the  liquor  traffic,  has  enacted  decrees  largely  increasing 
the  import  duties  and  the  internal  revenue  on  liquor  as  well  as  the  cost 
of  a  license  to  sell,  and  prohibiting  the  sale,  the  distribution  or  deten- 
tion of  spirits  for  trade  throughout  the  greater  portion  of  the  colony. 


BENITO  STATION. 

Benito  Station  was  established  forty-four  years  ago.  Situated  at  the 
mouth  of  the  Benito  River,  where  few  steamers  call,  it  is  perhaps  the 
most  isolated  of  the  Stations  in  this  Mission.  The  force  this  year  has 
consisted  of  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Cunningham — Mr.  Cunningham  having  over- 
sight of  the  coast  churches  from  this  point  and  conducting  a  theological 
class  at  the  Station — and  of  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Pinney,  who  have  had  charge 
of  the  school  and  medical  work. 

EVANGELISTIC. — The  Benito  district  comprises  six  of  the  elder 
churches  of  the  Mission.    God,  who  has  seen  fit  at  this  time  to  manifest 
His  power  in  the  work  of  self-support  in  this  Mission,  has  signally  dis- 
2 


34  WEST  AFRICA— BATANGA.  . 

tinguished  the  Benito  district  in  this  manifestation.  And  this  not 
along  the  lines  of  least  resistance.  The  Church  at  home  cannot  know 
with  what  wonder  the  Church  on  the  field  has  seen  the  elders  outrun 
their  juniors  in  a  race  for  which  the  juniors  may  be  said  to  have 
trained  from  the  start.  One  of  these  churches,  whose  contributions 
last  year  amounted  to  $28,  comes  in  this  year  with  a  sum  of  $265.  The 
report  from  the  Benito  district  jingles  with  Spanish  pesetas  like  a 
pocket  full  of  money,  and  that  sound  is  a  more  than  material  music 
in  the  ears  of  the  Mission.  God  has  added  souls  to  these  six  churches 
— here  a  score,  there  twoscore,  and  in  none  less  than  ten.  Many 
who  were  once  Christians  and  who  fell  away  are  coming  back  in 
repentance.  The  three  licentiates  who  are  students  in  the  theological 
class  have  shared  with  the  native  ministers  in  the  care  of  this  district. 
There  is  a  fine  tale  of  the  minister  of  the  church  at  Evune,  where 
there  were  no  benches.  He,  with  his  elders,  went  into  the  forest  and 
felled  the  timber  for  pews  and  now  there  is  no  lack.  Coast  personages 
do  not  commonly  stoop  to  menial  service,  but  Mbula  Ngubi  and  his 
elders  are  followers  of  a  Carpenter. 

EDUCATIONAL. — The  Spanish  teacher  is  well  under  way  and  has 
a  thriving  school  where  so  long  for  the  lack  of  the  one  there  was  lack 
of  the  other.  Fifty-six  boys  and  forty-five  girls  are  here  busy  at 
their  books,  their  industries,  their  conformities  to  the  law  and  order 
which  are  to  make  them  new  men  and  women.  Many  of  these  are  the 
children  and  the  grandchildren  of  Christians  who  were  made  to  be 
what  they  are  in  this  old  Station. 

INDUSTRIAL. — These  children  have  planted  cocoa  trees  and 
plantains,  have  gathered  building  material,  and  have  sold  palm-oil, 
palm-nuts  and  cocoa  to  the  amount  of  $44.  The  girls  have  been 
taught  to  wash,  iron,  mend  and  sew. 

MEDICAL. — Now  the  half  of  a  doctor's  time  is  at  the  service  of 
the  people  who  have  suffered  the  lack  of  a  physician's  care  through- 
out the  history  of  the  Station.  They  work  their  half  man  hard :  1,800 
patients  have  received  a  sum  of  3,300  treatments,  and  have  paid  for 
what  they  have  received.    The  receipts  for  the  year  amounted  to  $290. 

GOVERNMENTAL  RELATIONS.— The  Spanish  Government  con- 
tinues to  look  with  favor  upon  a  Mission  which  employs  a  Spanish 
teacher  who  never  spares  himself  in  the  exercise  of  all  courteous  observ- 
ance. 

BATANGA  STATION. 

Batanga  Station  is  the  business  centre  of  the  Mission.  Here  is- 
stationed  the  Treasurer  and  here  are  received  all  the  provisions  which 
make  possible  the  Stations  of  the  Kamerun  interior^  and  which  must 
be  repacked  to  loads  and  carried  in  on  the  backs  of  men.  Caravans 
to  the  number  of  something  over  1,000  men  have  been  in  and  out  of 
Batanga  during  this  year.  No  adequate  report  can  be  made  of  the 
work  entailed  by  the  handling  and  the  loading  of  such  caravans. 

The  year  opened  with  a  force  of  five  missionaries  :  Mr.  and  Mrs. 
Hummel,  in  charge  of  the  educational  work ;  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Blunden,  the 
doctor  in  charge  of  the  medical  work,  and  Mr.  Hickman  acting  as 
Mission  Treasurer.  Early  in  the  year  Mr.  Funk,  the  new  German 
teacher,  relieved  Mr.  Hummel,  and  later,  on  the  return  from  furlough 
of  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Adams,  Mr.  Adams  relieved  Mr.  Hickman.  These 
missionaries  thus   released  went  to  their   appointed   Stations. 

EVANGELISTIC— Two    of    the    three    churches    in    the    Batanga 


WEST  AFRICA— EFULEN.  35 

district  have  the  largest  membership  in  the  Mission.  Kribi  Church, 
with  its  membership  of  269;  Batanga  Church,  with  394,  and  Ubenji, 
with  109,  have  been  under  the  care  of  native  pastors.  During  this 
year  there  have  been  more  suspensions  than  additions ;  yet  there  has 
been  a  vital  life  in  these  churches,  particularly  under  Ndenga  and 
Bodumba  at  Batanga,  where  thirty-nine  members  were  received.  The 
services  everywhere  have  been  well  attended  and  there  is  a  large 
record  of  infant  baptisms.  Self-support  has  made  a  gain  of  fifty  per 
cent,  this  year,  and  the  churches  have  been  active  in  the  employ  of 
Bible  readers  and  the  support  of  out-stations.  This  active  interest  in 
the  things  of  God  is  very  appealing  among  a  people  who  are  yet  feeble 
in  their  spiritual  life  and  mistaken  in  their  Christian  conduct,  and  who 
deeply  need  the  care  of  a  white  minister. 

EDUCATIONAL. — The  school  with  132  pupils  has  had  a  good 
year.  Ninety  of  these  pupils  are  studying  German,  having  advanced 
from  the  vernacular  grades.  Eight  village  schools  are  supported  in 
the  Batanga  district.     Of  the  290  enrolled  in  these  a  third  are  girls. 

Industrial  work  is  lacking  at  this  Station  where  the  need  of  it  is 
keenly  felt. 

MEDICAL. — The  doctor  reports  the  best  year  in  his  African  experi- 
ence. Over  2,400  cases  have  come  under  his  care  this  year.  The 
hospital,  consisting  of  four  wards,  has  been  full ;  nineteen  operations 
have  been  performed  and  during  the  greater  part  of  the  year  the 
surgical  ward  has  had  patients  waiting  their  turn  for  admission.  Some 
of  the  patients  have  come  from   100  miles  distance. 

A  ghmpse  at  one  case  will  show  to  what  extent  the  doctor  must 
depend  upon  physical  signs  alone  in  order  to  make  a  diagnosis.  In 
answer  to  questions  from  the  doctor,  the  patient  replied  that  as  he  was 
walking  along  the  road  one  day  he  met  a  company  of  men,  one 
of  whom  had  thrown  a  leopard's  whisker  at  him.  This  had  struck 
him  in  the  breast  and  ever  since  then  he  had  been  ill.  Upon  examina- 
tion his  complaint  was  found  to  be  chronic  bronchitis.  When  the  doctor 
had  given  him  relief  he  went  back  to  his  town  rejoicing  and  marveling 
that  the  missionary  doctor  could  cure  a  man  even  though  he  had  been 
hit  by  a  leopard's  whisker. 

Receipts  for  the  year  amount  to  more  than  $900,  $500  of  which  were 
from  white  patients,  who  are  numerous  and  important  in  this  neigh- 
borhood. 

EFULEN  STATION. 

Efulen,  now  in  its  fifteenth  year,  is  the  oldest  of  the  interior 
Stations.  For  the  first  few  months  of  this  year  the  force  consisted  of 
Dr.  and  Mrs.  Silas  Johnson  and  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Schwab.  Later  Dr. 
and  Mrs.  Weber  succeeded  the  Johnsons,  who  left  on  furlough.  The 
Webers  went  back  to  their  appointed  Station  when  Rev.  and  Mrs.  W. 
C.  Johnston  returned  from  a  long  inland  itineration.  In  July  Mrs. 
Schwab  was  sent  home  by  the  doctor's  orders,  and  in  that  same  month 
there  arrived  Dr.  Lehman  from  America  and  Rev.  Mr.  Heminger  from 
Elat. 

EVANGELISTIC— Efulen  church  hfe  in  the  early  part  of  the  year 
was  cold,  but  there  came  at  last  a  quickening,  the  attendance  at 
Sabbath  services  increased  and  inquirers  came  by  the  score.  After  the 
July  Communion,  Session  examined  over  fifty  persons  desiring  to  pass 
from  the  first  to  the  advanced  company  of  inquirers.  At  the  close  of 
the  year  the  church  numbers  125  members,  thirty-three  of  whom  have 
been  received  during  the  twelve  months. 


36  WEST  AFRICA— EFULEN. 

There  are  on  the  roll  of  the  two  catechumen  classes  518  names, 
which  is  an  advance  of  146  over  last  year.  Of  this  number  over  100 
are  in  the  advanced  class.  The  work  of  these  classes  has,  during  the 
year,  assumed  a  more  definite  form :  after  each  Communion  service. 
Session  examines  persons  who  have  been  for  one  year  in  good  stand- 
ing in  the  first  class,  and  who  desire  to  be  advanced  to  the  second. 
When  Session  has  passed  upon  them  favorably,  they  are  publicly  re- 
ceived into  the  advanced  company.  If  at  that  time  any  one,  either  in 
that  company  or  in  the  church,  knows  of  anything  inconsistent  in  the 
lives  of  these  persons  they  are  asked  to  state  it,  and  the  candidate  is 
not  advanced.  At  the  last  Communion  three  persons  were  refused 
advancement  after  they  had  been  accepted  by  the  session. 

The  church  has  placed  evangelists  at  ten  different  villages  as  centres 
from  which  to  work.  This  plan  has  commended  itself  as  giving  a 
more  definite  form  to  village  evangelization  and  the  work  of  itineration. 
There  have  not  been  men  to  work  in  these  places  continually,  but  the 
placing  of  men  in  a  town,  for  a  month  at  a  time,  has  done  much  to 
start  a  work  that  will  give  the  mother  Church  abundant  scope  for  her 
efforts  in  the  future.  Four  of  these  places  are  among  the  Ntum  peo- 
ple and  have  proved  to  be  hard  fields  and  as  yet  unfruitful.  Four 
neighborhoods,  other  than  those  to  which  evangelists  have  been  sent, 
are  coming  to  be  centres  of  Christian  work  through  the  efforts  of 
those  of  the  towns-people  who  are  Christians.  In  one  of  these  the 
people  have  built  a  little  chapel  for  their  Sunday  services.  It  is  note- 
worthy that  from  districts  where  leading  men  have  become  Christians 
many  men  are  coming  as  inquirers,  while  from  other  districts  where 
the  Christians  are  women  the  returns  are  in  women  and  boys.  The 
church  is  endeavoring  to  draw  the  men  of  the  latter  districts  by 
sending  to  them  some  of  her  strongest  men  as  evangehsts.  Small 
need  to  ask  what  the  church  has  done  with  the  surplus  of  her  $139, 
when  to  the  aid  which  she  has  given  to  the  village  schools  is  added 
the  charge  of  evangelization. 

The  meetings  among  the  women  of  Efulen  district  have  been  practi- 
cally discontinued  this  year,  with  the  exception  of  those  held  at  the 
Station.  The  work  among  women  is  very  dear  to  this  Station,  which 
has  asked  the  Mission  to  make  the  following  report  to  the  Church  at 
home: 

"There  are  eighty  women  and  girls  in  school  and  several  hundred 
more  in  the  villages  about  us,  who  very  much  need  the  help  and  care  of 
a  woman  in  town  visitation.  It  is  even  more  important  now  than  in 
the  earlier  stages  of  the  work  that  these  girls  have  proper  supervision, 
if  we  are  to  have  Christian  homes  in  the  future.  The  neglect  of  this 
phase  of  the  work  must  result  in  a  telling  weakness  in  the  structure 
we  are  building." 

The  women  of  this  region  develop  into  a  strong  Christian  type.  "If 
women  can  be  elders,"  said  one  of  the  Efulen  elders,  "I  nominate 
Zamo." 

EDUCATIONAL.— The  school,  with  its  enrollment  of  260,  has 
passed  the  best  year  in  its  history.  The  effort  and  the  results  have 
been  intensive,  rather  than  extensive.  The  continued  labor  of  a  Ger- 
man speaking  teacher  has  formed  and  established  the  advanced  work 
of  the  German  school,  which  this  year  produced  its  first  graduates. 
After  a  thorough  examination  in  arithmetic,  composition,  grammar, 
sight  reading  and  translation,  geography  and  church  history,  three  of 
the  first  class  of  six  were  graduated.  These  three  young  men  are  all 
members  of  Efulen  Church,  in  good  standing  and  of  splendid  character, 
of  whom  the  Mission  may  be  proud. 

Six  to  eight  town  schools  have  had  an  average  attendance  of  forty- 
five  each.  Three  schools  for  women  have  been  established  in  neigh- 
boring villages.    These  were  in  session  for  three  afternoons  of  the  week 


WEST  AFRICA— ELAT.  37 

from  3  o'clock  until  4.30 — a  time  most  convenient  for  the  hard-work- 
ing women.  Many  of  the  women  brought  their  babies  with  them.  A 
delightful  picture  this — the  mother  with  the  infant  at  her  breast, 
struggling  with  the  mysteries  of  the  alphabet. 

INDUSTRIAL. — Last  year's  rubber  and  this  year's  planting  do  well. 
The  girls  plant  and  sew  and  make  their  modest  profits.  The  carpenter 
class  of  four  apprentices,  under  a  native  instructor,  has  been  immensely 
useful.  A  report  of  their  earnings,  which  have  covered  their  expenses, 
would  underestimate  b}'  a  great  deal  their  value  to  the  Station  in 
economy  of  white  men's  time.  Two  of  the  boys  promise  to  prove  ex- 
cellent workmen. 

MEDICAL. — The  medical  work  of  this  Station  passed  from  hand 
to  hand  until  in  July  it  settled  to  continuity  under  the  appointed  physi- 
cian. The  record  of  treatments  in  the  last  five  months  is  1,900,  and  the 
receipts  for  the  year,  $485. 

ELAT  STATION. 

Elat  Station  has  closed  its  thirteenth  year,  a  year  of  grace  in  our 
Lord.  The  force  during  the  first  part  of  the  year  consisted  of  Rev. 
M.  Eraser,  Mrs.  McCleary,  Dr.  R.  M.  Johnston  and  family,  and  Mr. 
and  Mrs.  Hope.  In  April  Mr.  Eraser  left  for  his  furlough.  Mr. 
Heminger  then  took  charge  of  the  church  work  until  the  arrival  of 
Mr.  Dager  in  July,  when  he  went  to  his  appointed  Station.  In  May 
Mrs.  Hope  died.  During  the  same  month  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Krug  arrived 
from  America,  and  in  June  Dr.  Johnston  and  family  left  for  furlough. 
Shortly  after  this  Mr.  Guthrie  returned  from  Lolodorf. 

EVANGELISTIC. — The  church  has  grown  rapidly.  Twenty-nine 
have  been  received  into  membership — the  careful  siftings  of  the  hun- 
dreds who  are  believers.  Five  hundred  ignorant  of  the  Gospel  have 
come  for  counsel  about  the  way  of  life.  The  average  attendance  at 
Sunday  services  is  over  800.  Eight  times  during  the  year  it  has  been 
over  1,000;  and  on  November  i  there  were  1,600  people  present.  The 
church  was  enlarged  during  the  year  to  a  total  of  1,475  running  feet 
of  seats  and  on  this  Sunday  in  November  there  was  an  allowance  of 
eleven  inches  to  the  individual.  Very  moving  will  be  these  statistics 
to  those  who  read  them  with  a  sense  of  the  primitive  forest  people  of 
whom  they  are  the  sum.  Some  of  these  have  come  two  days'  journey 
to  spend  a  Sunday  at  the  Station.  A  guest  house  is  at  the  service  of 
women  from  a  distance.  Here  they  are  visited  by  the  Christian  women, 
black  and  white,  and  learn  new  things  of  God. 

The  pastor  has  been  free  during  a  temporary  suspension  of  his 
theological  class  to  go  about  the  villages  among  his  people.  This  he 
has  done  as  their  guest,  "eating  their  bread  and  salt,"  sitting  with 
them  under  the  eaves  of  their  houses,  sleeping  many  nights  on  their 
pole  beds,  until  "the  lives  that  they  lived  were  his"  and  he  could  speak 
to  them  out  of  an  intimate  knowledge  of  their  needs,  of  their  conduct, 
and  of  their  Lord. 

In  the  dry  season  of  May  and  June  six  companies  of  two  native 
Christians  went  by  as  many  paths  on  journeys  of  itineration.  The 
sum  of  people  to  whom  these  twelve  Christians  spoke  was  25,000.  The 
caravan  house  which  was  completed  six  months  ago  on  the  Station 
grounds  has  lodged  since  then  4,100  passers-by,  and  under  its  shelter 
the  evangelist  in  charge  has  preached  to  more  than  8,000  people  from  a 
distance. 

The  village  school-teachers  are  all  Christians.  They  go  out  armed 
with  the  Word  and  they  bring  back  their  captives  with  them. 


38  WEST  AFRICA— ELAT. 

Thus  by  many  courses  the  water  of  Hfe  flows  out  from  the  Station. 
That  God  has  blessed  this  work  the  results  would  indicate,  not  only  in 
that  the  church  overflows  of  a  Sunday,  but  in  that  the  people  are  more 
willing  to  right  the  wrongs  they  have  done  their  fellow-men ;  not  only 
in  that  the  Station  reaches  more  people  than  ever  before,  but  in  that 
these  are  emerging  into  the  light  of  the  beauty  of  right  living.  Each 
of  the  twelve  collections  during  the  year  has  represented  a  contribution 
of  a  little  more  than  a  day's  rations  from  every  member  of  the  audience. 

EDUCATIONAL. — The  school  work  has  been  on  a  growing  scale. 
The  school  for  men  and  boys,  with  an  enrollment  of  400,  and  that  for 
women  and  girls,  with  an  enrollment  of  120,  have  had  a  very  high 
average  attendance  and  have  paid  in  tuition  to  the  amount  of  $237. 
One-third  of  the  boys  enrolled  at  the  opening  of  the  last  term  were 
graduates  from  the  village  schools,  and  have  justified  in  their  good 
average  the  trust  laid  upon  the  young  lads  who  taught  them. 

Those  of  the  scholars  who  have  mastered  the  vernacular  graduate 
into  the  German  classes,  where  they  receive  a  simple  and  practical 
knowledge  of  German.  There  are  over  ninety  lads  in  the  German 
classes.  The  classes  in  the  vernacular  are  taught  by  the  prospective 
village  teachers,  who  are  drilled  in  a  normal  class  before  the  morning 
session.  The  forty  boys  who  have  received  such  instruction  during  the 
year  have  shown  an  encouraging  degree  of  aptitude.  Fifteen  of  these 
are  now  doing  satisfactory  work  at  the  head  of  as  many  village  schools 
from  thirty  to  fifty  miles  distant  from  Elat.  Many  towns  are  ready  to 
support  schools,  some  at  a  distance  of  ninety  miles,  and  to  these  out- 
going Bulu  boj'S  will  be  given  to  bear  the  lamps  of  education  and 
salvation. 

Girls  and  women  to  the  number  of  120  have  formed  the  largest  girls' 
school  in  the  history  of  the  Mission.  Many  of  the  women  have  home 
duties ;  their  education  must  not  interfere  with  these,  and  they  have 
carried  double  burdens. 

INDUSTRIAL. — Industrial  work  under  two  equipped  missionaries 
has  made  tremendous  advances  in  the  year.  In  the  department  of  agri- 
culture gardens  of  plantains,  taro,  cassava,  corn,  and  peanuts  were 
planted.  These  with  pear,  orange  and  pawpaw  trees,  will  go  far  toward 
feeding  the  several  hundred  school-children  next  year.  An  experiment 
is  being  made  with  cocoa.  A  large  swamp  that  menaced  the  health  of 
the  Station  has  been  drained. 

The  tailor  class,  consisting  of  seven  apprentices  under  a  master 
tailor  trained  in  the  United  Presbyterian  Mission  of  the  Scotch  Church 
at  Old  Calabar,  has  been  a  success  from  its  formation  in  April. 
Natives,  traders  and  Government  officials  have  entered  more  orders 
than  the  class  has  been  able  to  fill.  One  hundred  suits,  fifty-nine  shirts, 
seventeen  dresses  and  innumerable  non-descript  garments  have  left 
the  class  with  a  profit  of  $88  in  cash  and  $150  in  material. 

The  carpenter  class  consists  of  nine  apprentices.  The  Governor  of 
the  colony,  who  visited  the  Mission  this  year,  was  so  pleased  with 
the  work  of  this  class  that  he  offered  to  employ  all  graduates.  One  of 
the  two  who  had  finished  their  apprenticeship  went  with  him,  the  other 
chose  to  stay  another  year  with  the  class.  The  course  comprises  the 
making  of  furniture  of  the  native  woods  and  of  rattan,  the  working  of 
ivory  and  ebony,  and  the  building  of  houses. 

The  class  has  been  unable  to  fill  all  the  orders  that  have  come  in, 
and  has  made  a  profit  in  cash  and  in  material  of  $350.  To  this  should 
be  added  the  immense  service  rendered  by  the  class  to  the  Station  in 
building,  with  the  aid  of  the  school-boys,  eleven  houses  and  an  addition 
to  the  church.  The  report  from  the  industrial  department,  with  its 
measurements,  its  tale  of  material,  its  account  of  the  uses  to  which  the 


WEST  AFRICA— Maclean  memorial.  39 

building  are  designed,  reads  like  the  building  of  a  town.  In  August 
four  houses  went  up  in  smoke,  and  before  the  embers  were  gray  the 
boys  were  off  in  the  forest  cutting  timber  for  rebuilding. 

Thus  it  will  be  seen  that  industrial  training  of  the  African  has  no 
apologies  to  make,  and  many  benefits  to  confer,  both  to  the  Mission 
and  to  the  race  which  is  the  reason  of  its  being. 

MEDICAL. — No  medical  report  can  be  forthcoming  from  a  Station 
which  has  been  without  a  physician  the  greater  part  of  the  year ;  and  no 
argument  is  needed  to  prove  the  need  of  one  in  such  a  settlement  as 
Elat  has  come  to  be. 


MACLEAN  MEMORIAL  STATION. 

MacLean  is  the  youngest  of  the  three  interior  Stations,  and  is  situ- 
ated on  one  of  the  great  highways  by  means  of  which  the  German  Gov- 
ernment is  opening  up  the  colony.  In  one  day  of  the  dry  season,  more 
than  500  carriers  will  pass  this  Station  and  rest  in  the  palaver  house, 
where  a  Christian  will  be  telling  wonucrful  things  of  God.  Many 
tribes  meet  here,  and  in  the  secret  places  of  the  forest  of  this  neighbor- 
hood there  are  communities  of  dwarfs. 

The  force  at  the  beginning  of  this  year  consisted  of  Dr.  and  Mrs. 
H.  L.  Weber  and  Rev.  and  Mrs.  F.  O.  Emerson,  who  were  joined  in 
February  by  Rev.  and  Mrs.  R.  B.  Hummel,  and  in  May  by  Mr.  F.  B. 
Guthrie,  who  left  for  Elat  in  July. 

EVANGELISTIC— On  the  first  Sunday  of  the  year  the  Lolodorf 
Christians  met  in  the  church  which  they  had  built  and  for  which  they 
had  paid.  They  rejoiced  in  a  surplus  of  $5.  In  that  bark  building, 
with  its  leaf  thatch,  there  have  been  held  since  then  regular  services, 
five  of  which  were  notable.  At  the  Communion  services  and  the  serv- 
ice of  dedication,  there  have  been  900  people  present,  coming  from  a 
radius  of  thirty  miles.  Seventy-six  of  this  audience  are  members  of 
the  church,  thirty  of  whom  were  admitted  this  year;  100  more  are  in 
preparation  for  admission,  members  of  the  advanced  inquiry  class ;  300 
more  are  members  of  the  second  inquiry  class,  that  class  which  deals 
with  the  beginnings  of  Christian  living.  The  church  has  supported  a 
work  of  native  evangelization  which  has  been  conspicuously  success- 
ful. Four  members  of  the  Ngumba  tribe,  three  of  whom  are  ministerial 
candidates,  and  one  an  elder,  have  gone  their  several  ways  of  service 
among  the  Ngumba,  among  the  Yaunde,  among  the  Bulu  and  among 
the  dwarfs.  God  has  wonderfully  blessed  them  all.  One  of  these  and 
his  wife  spent  three  months  of  the  year  among  the  dwarfs,  living  with 
them  in  their  shelters,  following  them  in  their  wanderings,  and  proving 
by  the  self-sacrifice  of  their  lives  the  sincerity  of  their  mission.  Curi- 
ously enough,  the  men  and  the  boys  were  less  slow  of  heart  than  the 
women ;  they  were  glad  to  hear  the  Word  and  were  unwilling  to  let 
their  Ngumba  missionaries  go.  "Many  of  the  men  begin  to  believe," 
says  Ngbwa ;  but  there  has  been  no  open  confession.  Yet  there  have 
been  preliminary  tests  of  Christian  living;, days  of  hunting  when  no 
hunting  "medicine"  was  made;  tentative  childish  ventures  upon  the 
tide  of  God's  love. 

The  missionaries  have  spent  some  fifty  nights  in  itineration.  Com- 
panies of  school-boys  have  been  sent  out  over  the  week  ends,  and  have 
spoken  on  a  single  trip  to  as  many  as  1,000  people.  The  palaver  house 
is  supplied  with  an  evangelist  supported  by  the  church,  and  who  shall 
say  how  far,  and  by  what  obscure  paths,  the  news  travels,  or  how 
many  carriers  ponder  these  things,  and  keep  them  in  their  hearts. 


40  WEST  AFRICA— Maclean  MEMORIAL. 

EDUCATIONAL. — The  school  has  had  an  enroUment  of  207, 
seventy-seven  of  whom  are  in  the  German  grades.  The  advanced  of 
the  German  classes  have  arrived  at  an  intelligent  reading  of  their 
Bibles  in  German — a  far  journey.  The  twenty-three  members  of  the 
normal  class  have  been  contracted  to  a  term  of  three  years'  study, 
followed  by  three  years'  teaching.  The  closing  session  of  this  class,  of 
which  many  of  the  members  were  on  their  way  to  open  village  schools, 
was  impressive,  as  the  importance  of  their  educational  and  evangelistic 
mission  was  laid  upon  them.  That  the  lads  are  alive  to  these  respon- 
sibilities is  witnessed  by  their  letters:  'T  rejoice  greatly  because  many 
people  come  to  service,"  writes  one.  "Two  hundred  and  eight  people 
were  at  meeting.  We  usually  have  more  than  that,"  writes  another. 
Fifteen  village  schools  are  in  session  at  this  writing. 

In  May  a  girls'  school  was  opened  at  the  Station,  and  the  second 
term  closes  with  thirty-five  in  regular  attendance. 

In  the  "boys'  town"  of  the  Station,  where  in  the  past  the  boys  have 
cooked  and  eaten  individually  and  indiscreetly,  there  has  been  built 
a  combination  cooking  and  dining-house  where  the  boys  assemble  at 
the  stroke  of  a  bell.  At  a  signal  they  take  their  places  and  grace  is 
said.  To  the  physical  benefit  of  well-cooked  food  is  added  the  moral 
effect  of  decency  and  mannerliness. 

INDUSTRIAL. — The  industrial  work  has  belonged  to  none,  and 
has  passed  through  the  hands  of  all;  it  has  not  been  planned,  it  has 
happened.  The  needs  of  the  black  and  white  people  resident  of  the 
place  have  driven  the  industries.  A  shortage  of  food  in  the  neighbor- 
hood has  forced  the  work  of  the  farm,  which  has  yielded  good  returns 
in  peanuts,  corn,  taro  and  fruits.  About  300  rubber  trees  have  been 
obtained  from  the  seed  and  oil-palm  trees  have  been  planted  on  the 
boundaries.  In  a  new  clearing,  rice  has  been  planted,  and  plantains  set 
out. 

A  class  of  four  apprentices  under  a  master  carpenter  from  the  Basle 
Mission  at  Duala  was  organized  at  the  beginning  of  the  year.  These 
are  contracted  for  three  years  without  pay,  and  are  required  to  buy 
their  own  tools.  With  the  help  of  this  class,  there  have  been  built 
a  dwelling  house,  a  palaver  house,  a  refectory  and  several  smaller 
houses. 

Thus  the  class,  young  as  it  is  and  conceived  primarily  for  the  benefit 
of  the  people,  has  yet  been  of  large  material  assistance  to  the  Sta- 
tion. 

MEDICAL. — The  medical  report  is  a  record  of  4,300  patients  who 
have  received  treatment,  and  2,800  who  have  received  medical  dressing. 
These  have  come  from  far  and  near  in  the  forest,  with  the  price  of 
medicine — a  chicken  in  a  basket,  eggs  in  a  leaf  bundle,  a  bunch  of 
plantains  in  hand.  Many  operations,  major  and  minor,  have  been 
performed.  Here,  as  in  the  other  hospitals  of  the  Mission,  morning 
prayers  have  been  held  and  individual  evangelistic  work  has  been 
done. 

GOVERNMENTAL  RELATIONS.— The  Government  Station  at 
Lolodorf  has  passed  during  the  year  through  the  hands  of  five  officials. 
From  Ober-Lieutenant  Achenbach,  who  died  in  February,  to  Herr 
Stoessel,  the  present  incumbent,  missionaries  have  received  unvarying 
kindness.  Ober-Lieutenant  Achenbach  was  attended  in  his  last  illness 
by  the  Mission  doctor.  His  young  wife  stayed  at  the  Mission  after 
his  death,  and  was  accompanied  by  the  doctor  on  her  way  out  from 
that  country  in  which  she  was  the  only  white  woman  not  a  missionary, 
and  where  she  had  come  to  be  known  by  the  black  people  as  a  friend. 


WEST  AFRICA— FURTHER  INLAND.  41 

FURTHER  INLAND. 

On  January  24  there  started  out  from  Efulen  a  caravan  of  twenty 
people,  two  of  whom  were  white.  This  was  a  company  of  Christians 
bound  for  a  region  some  200  miles  inland.  Of  these  travelers  only 
Mr.  W.  C.  Johnston  and  his  wife  did  not  carry  burdens,  the  rest  were 
laden.  On  the  13th  of  April  the  caravan  returned,  having  covered 
hundreds  of  miles.  By  what  forest  ways  they  went — in  what  populous 
and  obscure  villages  they  camped — what  burning  words  they  spoke  and 
to  what  thousands  of  people — it  is  not  in  the  scope  of  this  report  to 
tell.  Nor  of  the  incidents  by  the  way,  nor  of  the  evenings  before  the 
tent  door,  when  the  members  of  the  caravan  met  together  for  counsel, 
when  they  gave  account  of  their  several  adventures,  and  spoke  to  the 
missionary  of  the  deep  things  of  God  which  had  opened  up  before  them 
as  they  talked  to  the  people  by  the  way. 

This  expedition  is  the  last  and  the  most  exhaustive  of  several  such, 
which  have  covered  the  same  territory,  and  is  the  expression  of  the 
conviction  of  the  Board  and  of  the  Mission  that  God  calls  us  inland. 

The  Board  of  Foreign  Missions  at  its  meeting  February 
15,  1909,  passed  the  following  resolution: 

"The  Board  approved  of  the  action  of  the  West  Africa  Mission 
in  re  the  purchase  of  the  property  for  the  new  Station  at  Metet,  as 
embodied  in  the  following  action  of  the  Mission : 

"  'The  explorations  recommended  by  the  Mission  at  the  last  Mis- 
sion meeting  have  been  made.  After  spending  more  than  two  months 
in  the  Bene  country  the  two  members  of  the  Committee  designated  for 
that  work  decided  upon  the  site  two  miles  east  of  Metet.  The  site 
has  also  been  visited  during  the  year  by  Mr.  Dager.  We  have  an  option 
on  a  site  including  about  200  acres  of  ground  for  200  Marks,  the 
option  running  one  year  from  April  i,  1908,  to  April  i,  1909. 

"  'Your  Committee  would  recommend : 

"  'First — That  we  purchase  the  Metet  site,  the  money  being  given 
by  the  members  of  the  Mission. 

"  'Second — That  we  ask  the  Board  to  authorize  this  purchase  and 
accept  this  property  as  Mission  property. 

"  'Third — That  a  native  force  be  placed  on  the  site  to  open  evan- 
gelistic and  school  work,  this  work  to  be  supported  by  the  Bulu 
churches. 

"  'Fourth — That  the  present  New  Site  Committee  be  discharged  and 
a  new  Committee  of  three,  including  the  Chairman  of  Mission  Meet- 
ing, be  appointed  to  supervise  the  work  at  the  new  Station  during  the 
year. 

"  'Fifth — That  buildings,  including  school  and  house  for  native 
helpers,  be  erected  on  the  site.  These  buildings,  including  clearing,  not 
to  cost  more  than  300  Marks.  This  money  to  be  given  by  the  mis- 
sionaries.' 

"Report  and  recommendations  accepted  by  the  Mission." 

Metet  is  73.5  miles  northeast  of  Flat,  and  100  miles  north- 
cast  of  Lolodorf.  The  country  roundabout  is  as  thickly  set- 
tled as  the  average  Bulu  country.  Some  thirty-five  miles  north 
of  Flat  there  is  a  rather  marked  line  showing  a  different  tribe 
of  people.  At  this  point  you  reach  the  "Beti,"  who  speak  a 
language  that  is  akin  to  the  Bulu.  The  differences  are  merely 
of  dialect.  These  people  extend  north  sixty  or  seventy  miles 
to  the  Yeonde  country,  and  about  the  same  distance  east  and

west.  On  the  east  side  up  the  Nlong  River  the  people  under- 
stand Bulu  for  more  than  a  hundred  miles  from  Metet. 

Further  inland  is  a  people  called  the  "Makai,"  whose  lan- 
guage does  not  differ  from  the  "Makuk"  tribes  about  Lolodorf. 
The  Makai  are  still  cannibals.  When  the  Committee  visited 
these  people  a  report .  was  circulated  that  very  recently  three 
people  had  been  killed  and  eaten. 

The  new  Station  of  the  West  African  Mission  is  in  a  needy 
field.

MISSIONS  IN  CHINA. 

The  year  has  seen  a  continuance  on  an  even  vaster  scale  • 
of  the  remarkable  changes  which  have  characterized  recent 
years.  National  feeling-  is  being  intensified.  Railways  and 
telegraphs  are  being  rapidly  extended,  there  being  already 
3,746  miles  of  railway  in  operation  and  1,622  miles  under  con- 
struction; while  the  telegraph  system  aggregates  34,000  miles. 

The  death  of  the  Emperor  and  the  Empress  Dowager,  the 
accession  of  the  infant  Emperor  and  the  Prince  Regent,  and 
the  dismissal  of  Yuan  Shih  Kai  were  startling  in  their  svidden- 
ness  and  significance.  Many  had  supposed  that  the  death  of 
the  powerful  Empress  Dowager  would  result  in  an  outbreak 
of  revolutionary  agitation  looking  to  the  overthrow  of  the 
Manchu  Dynasty  and  the  enthronement  of  a  Chinese.  Great 
excitement  prevailed  in  many  parts  of  the  Empire  and  for  a 
time  rumors  of  trouble  were  rife.  Scanty  crops  in  the  north 
and  floods  and  typhoons  in  the  south,  bringing  millions  of  peo- 
ple to  the  verge  of  famine,  intensified  the  agitation,  as  the 
calamities  were  believed  to  be  due  to  the  displeasure  of  the 
gods.  But  no  serious  outbreak  occurred  and  the  new  Govern- 
ment quickly  became  established.  The  fall  of  Yuan  Shih  Kai 
was  a  great  disappointment  to  many  friends  of  China,  for 
while  he  was  not  lacking  in  faults,  he  was  generally  regarded 
not  only  as  the  ablest  man  in  China^  but  as  the  real  leader  of 
the  reform  movement.  It  was  feared  that  his  dismissal  might 
result  in  reactionary  tendencies ;  but  thus  far  the  new  Govern- 
ment appears  to  be  disposed  to  be  fairly  progressive. 

While  there  is  some  concern  lest  the  new  national  feeling^ 
may  in  time  affect  the  readiness  of  the  people  to  respond  to- 
influences  from  the  West,  the  year  has  been  characterized  on 
the  whole  by  a  marked  willingness  to  hear  the  preaching  of 
Christianity.  It  is  true  that  the  students  of  several  Mission 
schools  have  shown  a  new  spirit  of  insubordination ;  but  firm' 
and  tactful  treatment  by  the  missionaries  in  charge  has  averted 
serious  trouble,  and  in  general  our  schools  are  fuller  than 
ever  before.  As  a  rule,  too,  churches  and  hospitals  have  the 
widest  possible  opportunities,  and  our  printing  press  at  Shang- 
hai finds  it  impossible  to  meet  the  ever-increasing  demands 
upon  it. 

A  gratifying  feature  of  the  situation  is  the  manifest  growth 
of  the  native  Church,  and  with  it  the  development  of  the  spirit 

45

of  self-support  and  self-g-overnment.  There  is  now  a  well- 
established  Chinese  Church.  It  is  yet  small  in  proportion  to 
the  vastness  of  the  population,  but  it  is  full  of  vigor  and 
promise.  It  is  rapidly  coming-  to  a  sense  of  self-consciousness. 
This  phase  of  the  question  is  not  without  anxiety,  for  it  in- 
volves problems  of  the  relationship  of  the  native  Church  to 
the  foreign  Mission  which  are  delicate  and  occasionally  em- 
,  barrassing.  However,  the  door  of  opportunity  in  China  is 
now  wide  open  to  missionary  influence,  and  it  is  increasingly 
evident  that  this  is  the  time  for  the  home  Church  to  press  its 
mission  work  to  the  very  utmost,  for  no  one  knows  how  long 
the  present  unprecedented  opportunity  may  continue. 

At  the  Federation  Meeting  in  Shantung  a  year  ago,  atten- 
tion was  called  to  the  fact  that  there  were  Chinese  Christians 
from  many  quarters  in  Vladivostock  for  whom  there  was  no 
church  provision.  The  Rev.  George  Cornwell,  of  our  East 
Shantung  Mission,  and  Elder  Hiei  Pao  Kie  went  to  Vladivos- 
tock to  investigate  and  found  quite  a  nucleus  of  believers.  Mr. 
McMullan,  a  business  man  of  Chefoo,  generously  offered  to 
finance  the  undertaking.  One  of  our  pastors,  Hwang  Ping  Fu, 
who  has  been  for  ten  years  in  charge  of  one  church,  con- 
templates going  to  Vladivostock  on  this  mission,  though  defi- 
nite plans  have  not  yet  been  completed.  Another  interesting 
fact  is  the  organization  of  a  missionary  society  by  the  Chinese 
Presbyterians  of  Shantung  Province.  They  hope  to  send  an 
evangelist  to  an  unoccupied  place  in  Chi-li  Province,  and  they 
are  manifesting  considerable  interest  in  this  project. 

The  extraordinary  intellectual  awakening  among  the  Chi- 
nese and  the  consequent  demand  for  better  facilities  for  higher 
education  has  led  prominent  men  in  Great  Britain  to  form  a 
"China  Emergency  Appeal  Fund  Committee,"  headed  by  Sir 
Robert  Hart,  the  Archbishop  of  Canterbury  and  the  Bishop  of 
London.  In  America,  the  Committee  on  Reference  and  Coun- 
sel, representing  all  the  Boards  and  Societies  of  Foreign  Mis- 
sions in  the  United  States  and  Canada,  recommended  to  the 
last  Annual  Conference  of  the  Boards  the  formation  of  a 
special  interdenominational  committee  for  this  country.  The 
Conference  unanimously  adopted  the  recommendation  and 
appointed  as  such  committee  the  Committee  on  Reference  and 
Counsel,  together  with  twelve  laymen  to  be  appointed  by  the 
Committee.  These  laymen  are  being  selected  as  this  report 
goes  to  press. 

The  purpose  of  the  Committee  is  to  aid  the  Boards  in  bring- 
ing the  extraordinary  situation  in  China  to  the  attention  of 
the  American  people,  to  emphasize  the  need  of  more  adequately 
equipped  schools  and  colleges,  and  to  assist  in  securing  funds 
for  this  purpose,  these  funds  to  be  paid  directly  to  and  to  be 
administered  by  the  Boards  of  Foreign  Missions.     The  Com- 


CHINA.  47 

mittee  will  place  strong  emphasis  upon  the  need  of  Christian 
as  distinguished  from  purely  secular  education,  and  upon  the 
importance  of  more  adequately  equipping  the  institutions  that 
are  already  in  existence  before  undertaking  the  development 
of  new  ones. 

We  bespeak  from  the  whole  Church  special  prayers  for  our 
missionaries  in  China  at  this  time  of  emergency  and  crisis. 
They  are  able  and  wise  men  and  women  who  are  worthily 
representing  the  Presbyterian  Church  at  the  forefront  of  the 
battle.  They  need  our  co-operation  on  a  far  larger  scale  than 
it  has  yet  been  possible  for  the  Board  to  give.

and  Mrs.  Crawford,  Mr.  Gilbert  Mcintosh  and  Mrs.  Mcintosh  in  Scot- 
land. 

The  only  changes  in  the  Mission  staff  during  the  year  have 
been  the  resignation  of  Dr.  Cattell  and  her  return  to  the  United 
States  on  account  of  home  duties,  and  the  marriage  of  the 
Rev.  J.  M.  Espey  to  Miss  Mary  L.  Jenkins,  and  Mr.  Myers  to 
Miss  Mary  Macphail,  both  Miss  Jenkins  and  Miss  Macphail 
having  been  teachers  in  Miss  Jewell's  school  at  Shanghai.  Dr. 
Agnes  M.  Carothers  was  sent  out  March  26  to  take  Dr.  Cat-. 
tell's  place. 

The  most  important  problem  of  policy  before  the  Mission 
during  the  year  has  been  the  reorganization  of  its  educational 
work.  The  resources  available  were  not  sufficient  to  support 
all  the  institutions  of  the  Mission  adequately,  and  new  condi- 
tions of  transportation  and  co-operation  among  Missions 
48 


CENTRAL  CHINA— NINGPO.  49 

seemed  to  make  it  unnecessary  to  maintain  High  Schools  at 
all  the  Stations.  It  was  accordingly  decided  to  consolidate  the 
Boys'  School  at  Soochow  and  Ningpo  with  the  Hangchow 
Christian  College,  and  to  pursue  the  same  course  with  the 
Lowrie  High  School  at  the  South  Gate,  Shanghai,  unless  the 
alumni  of  the  school  were  prepared  to  take  over  its  support. 
The  Southern  Presbyterians  contemplated  joining  in  the  sup- 
port of  the  Hangchow  College,  and  it  was  agreed  to  unite  also 
the  Girls'  Schools  of  the  Mission  in  Hangchow,  and  to  readjust 
also  the  Girls'  Schools  in  Shanghai  and  Ningpo. 

NINGPO  STATION. 

EVANGELISTIC. — The  corps  of  native  workers  has  suf- 
fered still  greater  decrease,  one  native  pastor  having  been 
deposed  from  the  ministry  for  carrying  on  lawsuits  in  the  name 
of  the  Church ;  and  another,  having  been  found  untrustworthy 
and  deceptive,  was  asked  to  resign.  There  is  no  greater  need 
than  the  need  of  strong  native  men  to  care  for  the  ten  churches 
of  the  Ningpo  field.  The  Zong-yu  Church,  whose  pastor  was 
asked  to  resign,  is  practically  disbanded  for  the  present. 
The  Dzing-bu-deo  Church,  whose  pastor  was  asked  to  resign, 
is  struggling  with  the  problem  of  the  New  England  rural 
church.  The  most  efficient  third  of  its  membership  has 
migrated  to  Shanghai  and  Ningpo,  where  there  are  afl'orded 
greater  opportunities  than  in  the  country  for  economic  better- 
ment. Many  of  the  remaining  church  members  are  women, 
and  live  at  such  a  distance  that  regular  attendance  is  well-nigh 
impossible.  Then,  too,  this  church  has  its  quota  of  cold,  indif- 
ferent, and  unworthy  members,  so  that,  out  of  a  total  member- 
ship of  105,  there  are  only  about  thirty  who  are  regular  at- 
tendants. 

The  Yii-yiao  Church  continues  to  grow  and  prosper  in  a 
very  encouraging  way.  It  has  now  become  entirely  self-sup- 
porting, including  the  salary  of  the  helper  in  an  out-station. 
The  congregations  are  becoming  too  large  for  the  church,  and 
plans  are  being  worked  out  for  enlarged  accommodations.  A 
special  feature  of  this  new  growth  is  the  large  number  of 
women  and  children  who  now  attend  the  services.  One  neigh- 
borhood, some  two  miles  distant,  has  secured  a  boat  in  which 
twenty  or  thirty  women  and  children  are  rowed  to  church 
every  Sabbath.  Other  churches  also  show  signs  of  vigorous 
life,  but  there  are  still  a  few  churches  that  arfe  almost  dead, 
chiefly  for  the  lack  of  proper  exercise  of  discipline. 

In  addition  to  the  itineration  of  the  missioneries,  the  Bible 
women  have  visited  the  homes  and  the  out-stations. 

During  July,  Mrs.  Shoemaker  gathered  the  Bible  women  in  Yii-yiao 
for  a  month  of  study.    "Their  eagerness  to   learn,"   she  writes,   "and 


50  CENTRAL  CHINA— NINGPO. 

their  gratitude  for  the  instruction  given,  quite  repaid  one  for  the  effort. 
Of  the  three  women  in  our  regular  employ,  two  are  over  sixty  years  of 
age,  and  will  not  be  able  for  very  many  more  years  of  service.  We  are 
hoping  for  younger  women  to  train,  but  thus  far  only  two  have  been 
found  that  we  think  are  suited  for  the  work,  and  they  are  not  as  yet 
under  special  instruction.  The  need  for  a  training  school  for  women 
becomes  more  apparent  each  year." 

It  is  also  interesting  to  report  an  old  Buddhist  nun,  seventy  years 
of  age,  who  has  come  of  her  own  accord  to  learn  about  Christianity, 
and  has  been  living  for  a  month  with  the  Bible  women  in  Yii-yiao, 
who  are  teaching  her  the  way  of  life.  She  is  paying  all  her  own 
expenses,  and  seems  to  be  genuinely  in  earnest. 

There  are  eighteen  Sunday-schools  in  Ningpo,  with  forty- 
three  officers  and  teachers  and  975  scholars.  The  total  num- 
ber of  communicants  on  the  field  is  1,107,  of  whom  eighty-nine 
were  added  on  examination  during  the  year. 

EDUCATIONAL  WORK.— Day-schools.— The  Station  has 
six  day-schools,  with  114  pupils  enrolled,  and  three  boarding 
schools  with  285  enrolled. 

Of  the  Boys'  Academy,  Mr.  Wright  reports  : 

The  actual  number  of  boys  in  attendance  has  been  slightly  over 
forty,  of  whom  six  were  day  pupils.  Since  Chinese  New  Year  only  one 
or  two  have  been  from  non-Christian  families,  and  one  of  these  has 
been  admitted  to  the  church  after  repeated  application.  On  the  whole, 
school  government  has  been  a  far  simpler  problem  this  year  than  ever 
before ;  although  the  tendency  to  an  average  good  deportment  has  not 
been  stronger  with  a  greater  proportion  of  Christian  boys,  the  greater 
ease  of  governing  lies  in  the  greater  amenableness  to  discipline  of 
Christian  boys. 

At  Chinese  New  Year  a  class  of  six  boys  was  graduated ;  one  with 
partial  courses  only  and  he  the  only  non-Christian  in  the  class.  Of 
the  others,  four  received  diplomas  for  the  full  Chinese  course,  and 
one,  the  son  of  a  pastor,  for  the  full  Chinese  and  English  course.  These 
five  boys  have  all  decided  to  enter  the  ministry,  and  are  now  studying 
in  Hangchow  College  with  that  end  in  view. 

Of  the  Girls'  Boarding  School,  Miss  Duncan  writes : 

During  the  fall  term  there  were  forty-four  boarders  and  eleven  day 
pupils,  a  full  attendance,  I  thought,  at  the  time.  But  at  Chinese  New 
Year  I  had  applications  from  several,  and  I  began  to  plan,  and  found 
that  I  might,  by  converting  my  former  bedroom  and  bathroom  in  the 
school  building  into  a  dormitory,  accommodate  a  few  more.  So  I  took 
in  six  new  boarders,  making  an  attendance  of  fifty  boarders  and  ten 
day  pupils  for  the  Spring  term.  But,  alas !  there  are  no  more  rooms 
to  be  converted  into  dormitories  now ;  we  have  reached  the  limit  of 
our  capacity.  And  there  are  eight  or  ten  new  applicants  for  the  coming 
Fall  term,  whom  I  should  like  very  much  to  receive. 

Two  of  the  older  girls  have  left  this  year  to  study  medicine;  one  in 
Soochow  and  one  in  Nanking.  Four  girls  in  the  school  have  been  taken 
into  the  church,  leaving  seven  inquirers,  of  whom  three  are  _  from 
heathen  families.  One  of  the  latter  has  had  a  hard  fight  at  home  in  the 
Summer  vacation,  for  her  father  is  anxious  to  betroth  her,  having  had 
several  offers  from  men  of  wealth  and  position,  but  the  girl  remains 
steadfast  in  refusing  her  consent,   for   all  of  the  men   were  heathen. 


CENTRAL  CHINA— SHANGHAI.  51 

She  has  actually  been  in  danger  of  her  life,  for  on  two  occasions  her 
father  was  so  angry  with  her  that  he  attempted  to  cut  her  throat. 

Of  the  Anglo-Chinese  Girls'  School,  Miss  Morton  reports : 

The  Anglo-Chinese  Girls'  School  closed  in  July  with  an  enrollment 
of  twenty-eight  Chinese  girls  (of  whom  eight  are  day  pupils  and  twenty 
boarders),  one  Japanese,  and  nine  foreign  children. 

At  the  beginning  of  the  Chinese  year  a  Miss  Zia,  one  of  the  former 
pupils  of  the  Ningpo  Girls'  School  and  who  had  been  studying  for 
about  three  years  and  a  half  in  Tokyo,  in  the  Joshi  Gakuin,  returned 
to  Ningpo  to  assist  in  the  Anglo-Chinese  School,  and  has  proven  of 
invaluable  assistance. 

Twenty-four  girls  came  to  a  three-months'  Short  Term  School,  at 
the  end  of  which  all  were  able  to  read  in  the  Romanized.  Forty  women 
were  enrolled  in  the  Women's  Class,  the  largest  the  Station  has  had, 
and  they  brought  fifteen  children  with  them.  The  class  was  in  session 
twelve  weeks.  The  four  subjects  were:  New  Testament,  Old  Testa- 
ment, Chinese  character,  and  Romanized  writing,  which,  besides  the 
regular  morning  and  evening  worship  when  singing  was  also  taught, 
made  them  a  busy  day.  The  cooking  and  sweeping  are  also  done  by 
the  women. 

The  Men's  Class. — 

There  was  a  banner  enrollment  of  thirty-three,  of  whom  nineteen 
were  inquirers  or  the  sons  of  church  members.  Seven  of  the  class, 
having  attended  previous  sessions,  received  advanced  instruction.  The 
ages  of  the  pupils  ranged  all  the  way  from  thirteen  up  to  fifty-one, 
but,  notwithstanding  this  disparity  in  age  and  the  shortness  of  the 
session,  all  but  five,  who  were  very  dull,  were  able  to  read  when  the 
class  came  to  a  close  at  the  end  of  a  month  of  tremendous  mental 
strenuousness  on  the  part  of  some. 

There  are  now  under  the  care  of  the  Station  six  students  in 
the  Hangchow  College  looking  forward  to  the  ministry. 
Conferences. — 

The  usual  quarterly  conferences  of  lay  helpers  were  held  during  the 
year;  once  in  Yii-yiao  and  twice  in  conjunction  with  the  union  con- 
ference of  all  missions  in  Ningpo.  These  union  conferences,  which 
have  now  been  held  for  a  number  of  years,  are  proving  very  helpful 
in  drawing  closer  together  the  workers  in  the  various  denomina- 
tions in  the  Ningpo  field,  and  we  trust  are  blazing  the  way  to  a 
federated  church. 

The  annual  Christian  Endeavor  Convention  was  held  in  Yii-yiao, 
attended  by  about  200  Christians,  coming  from  nearly  all  our  churches 
except  Zong-yii. 

SHANGHAI  STATION. 

EVANGELISTIC  WORK.— The  report  states : 

Under  this  heading  we  have  quite  an  advance  to  report — a  new 
evangelist  in  an  out-station  where  we  have  had  a  small  work  for 
some  time,  but  no  evangelist  resident;  a  new  out-station  opened  in 
which  an  evangelist  has  been  placed  from  the  beginning,  and  a  new 
readiness  on  the  part  of  the  people  to  hear  our  message;  these  are  all 
great  encouragements. 


52  CENTRAL  CHINA— SHANGHAI. 

Lowrie  Memorial  Church. — During  the  year  there  have  been  twenty- 
seven  accessions  to  this  church,  including  two  restored  to  church 
fellowship ;  fourteen  adults  and  live  children  have  been  baptized.  The 
total  membership  is  now  i6i,  consisting  of  ninety-four  men  and 
sixty-sieven  women.  One  of  the  inquirers  told  with  tears  how 
people  brought  her  rice  or  money,  wanting  her  to  say  prayers 
to  Buddha  for  them.  She  said  she  had  no  other  way  of  sup- 
porting herself,  and  so  she  had  been  in  the  habit  of  saying  these 
prayers,  and  also  praying  to  the  Lord  for  the.m.  She  said  she  told 
Him  that  He  knew  she  needed  the  rice,  and  it  would  not  be  honest 
for  her  to  take  it  unless  she  did  what  they  paid  her  for,  but  added,  "I 
tell  the  Lord  He  knows  I  don't  believe  in  it,  and  I  want  Him  to  bless 
them."  She  has  only  recently  begun  to  come  for  instruction,  and 
says  she  will  give  it  all  up  and  trust  the  Lord.  We  surely  do  not 
realize  what  it  means  for  some  of  these  women  to  turn  away  from 
their  old  superstitions. 

South  Gate  Church. — In  our  report  last  year  we  recorded  the  happy 
celebration  of  the  sixtieth  birthday  of  Mr.  Taung,  who  for  twenty- 
seven  years  had  been  the  loved  and  honored  pastor  of  this  church. 
Just  before  Christmas  this  year  he  passed  to  his  reward,  a  welcome 
release  from  years  of  suffering  for  him,  but  a  loss  to  the  whole 
Christian  community  of  Shanghai,  where  his  well-known  uprightness 
of  life  gave  weight  to  his  faithful  words  as  a  preacher.  He  loved 
to  preach,  and  during  later  years  continued  to  fill  his  pulpit  long  after 
strength  had  failed  for  anything  else,  often  rising  from  days  of  weak- 
ness and  nights  of  pain  to  stand  before  his  people  on  the  Sabbath. 
The  last  year  of  his  life  was  gladdened  by  knowing  that  a  successor 
after  his  own  heart  had  heeded  the  call  of  God  and  the  church  to  take 
up  the  pastorate. 

Mr.  Li,  who  has  grown  up  among  us,  holds  the  confidence  and  love 
of  the  people,  and  is  the  more  endeared  to  them  by  the  fact  that  he 
has  turned  from  a  successful  business  career,  impelled  by  a  deep  con- 
sciousness of  the  love  of  God.  He  comes  to  a  church  that  has  been 
prepared  for  a  new  era  in  activity  with  183  members,  resident  and  non- 
resident, quite  a  number  of  whom  are  pupils  in  the  schools. 

We  have  a  very  flourishing  Sunday-school  at  the  South  Gate  Church 
with  an  attendance  of  265. 

We  are  glad  also  to  tell  of  the  success  of  the  orphanage  supported 
by  Christians  of  the  Lowrie  Memorial  Church  and  the  South  Gate 
Church  and  by  other  friends  interested  in  the  work.  It  is  now  in 
the  second  year  of  its  operation  and  has  taken  in  fifty  little  orphan 
boys.  It  is  under  the  excellent  management  of  Mr.  Tsang  Ding- 
yoong,  whose  varied  activities  are  mentioned  so  frequently  in  this 
report.  The  older  boys  are  learning  to  make  wicker  chairs  and  tables 
to  contribute  towards  their  support,  and  the  energetic  manager  has 
several  other  schemes  for  industrial  work,  which  we  hope  he  will 
successfully  carry  out.  The  children  attend  church  services  and  Sun- 
day-school at  the  South  Gate  and  show  a  remarkable  knowledge  of 
the  Scriptures.  All  visitors  to  the-  orphanage  come  away  full  of 
enthusiasm  about  it,  and  they  may  well  be  so,  for  it  is  like  an  oasis 
in  that  walled  city,  a  spot  crowded  with  flowers  and  well-cared-for 
children.  Their  quarters  are  already  too  small  for  them  and  land 
has  been  bought  some  miles  out  of  Shanghai,  at  Loong  Hwo. 

Seven  women  who  began  studying  with  Miss  Silver  two 
years  ago  are  still  working  with  her  in  the  Bible  school. 

With  a  growing  delight  in  the  Word  of  God,  their  faithfulness  to 
their  study  never  fails.  This  year  the  New  Testament  study  was  the 
Life   of    Christ,   based   on   a   harmony   of   the    Gospels.      A   thorough 


CENTRAL  CHINA— SHANGHAI.  53 

review  and  examination  of  the  work  done  showed  a  remarkable 
famiharity  with  the  incidents  of  the  recorded  life  of  our  Lord.  The 
study  in  the  Old  Testament  was  Genesis  and  Exodus ;  each  student 
being  required  to  give  the  contents  of  each  chapter  without  question- 
ing. Each  woman  in  the  school  does  all  her  own  work  and  bears  all 
her  living  expenses.  The  Mission  provides  only  a  teacher,  giving  the 
students  rooms  to  live  in. 

In  connection  with  the  Bible  school,  Miss  Silver  has  conducted 
special  Autumn  and  Spring  Bible  classes  for  those  who  are  not  able 
to  give  their  whole  time  to  study.  On  account  of  her  severe  illness 
much  of  the  care  of  the  Autumn  class  had  to  be  given  over  to  a 
young  Chinese  teacher  and  the  two  Bible  women,  who  showed  how 
faithfully  and  competently  they  could  carry  on  the  month  of  study. 
The  work  was  far  from  superficial,  and  a  thorough  understanding  was 
gained  of  the  deeper  truths  taught. 

The  Spring  class  was  larger  than  the  Autumn  one,  and  was  in 
some  ways  the  most  interesting  ever  held  in  the  school.  A  half-dozen 
girls  in  their  teens,  some  of  whom  knew  how  to  read,  gave  a  bright- 
ness to  the  class  that  stimulated  every  one.  These  girls  long  so  to 
study  more,  and  only  the  state  of  the  family  exchequer  keeps  them 
from  entering  some  boarding  school.  Most  of  them  are  daughters 
of  widows  and  must  themselves  help  to  earn  their  living  by  embroider- 
ing. To  enter  school  involves  the  loss  of  their  wages  and  an  additional 
outlay  for  clothes  and  school  fees.  These  girls  became  eager  to  have 
their  mothers  learn  of  Christ,  and  the  women  who  are  studying  in 
the  Bible  school  were  happy  to  give  one  afternoon  in  the  week  to 
teaching  the  Bible  in  these  homes,  and  through  this  means  not  only 
the  mothers  but  neighbor  girls  have  become  interested  and  some  have 
expressed  a  desire  to  confess  Christ  by  uniting  with  the  church. 

Work  has  been  conducted  at  the  three  out-stations  of  Tseu- 
phoo,  Doo-ka-aung  and  Kau-jau.  The  Bible  women  have 
itinerated  more  than  usual  by  themselves.    Miss  Silver  reports  : 

Almost  nine  years  ago,  when  she  first  went  to  Doo-ka-aung,  she 
was  pleased  to  learn  that  there  was  a  school  for  girls,  in  charge  of  a 
woman.  Wishing  to  make  the  acquaintance  of  this  preceptress.  Miss 
Silver  and  her  Bible  women  called  one  evening  as  the  pupils  were 
leaving,  and  found  her  and  a  neighbor  such  intelligent  and  courteous 
women  that  it  was  lamp-lighting  before  they  could  get  away.  The 
interest  roused  they  have  tried  to  follow  up  by  repeated  visits,  and 
though  the  teacher  is  stern  and  proud,  they  are  not  hopeless  of  her. 
Concerning  the  neighbor.  Miss  Silver  continues :  "She  has  rarely  come 
in  when  we  have  been  calling,.  ..  .but  this  time  I  decided  to  call  at 
her  home  after  my  talk  with  the  teacher.  What  was  my  joy  to  see 
her  come  in  early  in  our  call,  and  from  that  time  on  until  dark  take 
all  the  conversation  to  herself.  And  if  any  others  present  made_  any 
remarks  aside  from  the  theme  of  salvation  in  Christ,  she  quickly 
reverted  to  it.  for  she  had  not  forgotten  the  words  of  so  long  ago, 
although  her  training  had  led  her  to  devote  herself  to  the  practices 
of  Buddhism,  in  the  lore  of  which  she  was  far  better  informed  than 
it  is  usual  to  find  men  or  women.  Later  in  the  week  I  sent  her  a 
New  Testament  and  invited  her  to  the  service  on  Sunday  (to  which 
she  came,  afterwards  visiting  in  Miss  Silver's  own  room).  Nothing 
seemed  so  important  to  her  as  seeing  clearly  what  was  involved  in 
accepting  Christ.  Never  before  have  I  realized  so  fully  what  it 
means  to  a  conservative,  well-read  woman  to  cast  aside  the  traditions 
of  her  forefathers,  to  wnbelieve  all  that  she  has  pinned  her  faith  to 
and  step  out  on  to  a  few  bare  statements  heard  from  the  lips  of  an

ignored  barbarian.  No  physical  miracle  seems  so  marvelous  as  the 
working  of  the  Spirit  of  God  in  the  hearts  of  such.  The  palsy  that 
had  taken  hold  of  her  had  driven  her  to  worshiping  the  idols,  and 
it  seemed  harder  to  risk  what  might  come  to  her  if  she  ceased  these 
rites  than  anything  else.  Looking  at  the  story  of  the  man  with  the 
palsy  who  was  brought  to  Jesus  helped  her  to  see  that  her  sins  were 
more  to  be  dreaded  than  bodily  ills,  and  as  we  finally  knelt  to  pray 
my  heart  bounded  with  joy  as  she  made  her  earnest  plea  for  spiritual 
gifts  alone." 

Mr.  Espey  made  a  brief  Spring  tour  in  the  Pootung  field. 

Here  and  there  men  are  met  who  have  heard  something  of  Christ 
in  Shanghai  or  from  our  native  workers,  but  many  are  totally  ignorant 
of  the  very  meaning  of  the  word  Jesus. 

EDUCATIONAL.— Eighty  boys  have  been  enrolled  in  the 
Lozvrie  High  School.    The  report  states : 

Practically  all  the  education  in  Chinese  letters  in  this  school  is  to- 
day supported  by  the  money  from  these  former  pupils.  Rumors  from 
our  Fall  Mission  meeting  reached  the  alumni  and  made  them  uneasy 
about  the  future  of  the  school.  They  feared  a  removal  and  were 
much  dissatisfied.  Finally  at  a  conference  between  a  committee  ap- 
pointed by  the  Mission  and  a  committee  from  the  Old  Students'  Asso- 
ciation, the  latter  outlined  plans  looking  toward  the  Association  taking 
over  still  larger  financial  burdens  and  planning  to  raise  the  scholar- 
ship of  the  school,  asking  from  the  Mission  only  that  the  services  and 
counsel  of  one  foreigner  be  continued. 

The  brass  band  of  the  school  has  been  in  great  demand.  The 
Girls'  Boarding  School  reports  seventy  pupils. 

Six  pupils  joined  the  church  this  year,  making  a  total  of  twenty- 
eight  church  members  in  the  school,  besides  sixteen  others  who  have 
not  yet  been  admitted  to  the  communion,  but  have  gone  before  the 
session,  confessing  their  faith  in  Christ  and  their  desire  to  serve  Him. 
The  majority  of  the  twenty-eight  remaining  pupils  are  quite  small; 
nineteen  of  them  are  children  of  Christians. 

Of  the  three  pupils  who  finished  the  eight  years'  course  and  re- 
ceived their  certificates  in  July,  one  has  gone  to  Ningpo  to  teach  in 
our  Anglo-Chinese  school  for  girls,  and  another  is  teaching  in  this 
school ;  the  third  is  continuing  her  studies  in  the  Shanghai  Methodist 
Girls'  School,  which  offers  a  twelve  years'  course  of  study. 

Just  when  Miss  Posey  feared  that  her  Kindergarten  School 
might  have  to  be  given  up  through  the  removal  to  the  United 
States  of  Mr.  Yen,  her  most  active  supporter,  who  had  been 
appointed  private  secretary  to  the  Chinese  Minister  in  Wash- 
ington, another  friend  was  raised  up. 

At  the  closing  exercises  in  January  (for  the  Chinese  New  Year 
holidays)  a  prominent  Chinese  gentleman  was  present,  who  had  been 
educated  in  the  United  States,  and  expressed  his  enthusiasm  over  the 
fact  of  having  at  last  a  kindergarten  for  Chinese  in  Shanghai.  His 
speech  resulted  in  the  forming  of  a  new  committee  and  increased 
contributions,  which  have  enabled  Miss  Posey  to  continue  the  work 
through  the  year. 


CENTRAL  CHINA— HANGCHOW.  55 

The  wife  of  a  prominent  Shanghai  business  man,  formerly 
a  kindergarten  teacher  in  Virginia,  has  taught  the  Normal 
Class  from  the  school  in  her  own  home  one  afternoon  a  week. 

The  Station  carried  on  four  day-schools,  with  120  pupils. 

LITERARY  WORK.— Dr.  Farnham  has  continued  his  work 
with  the  Chinese  Tract  Society,  in  addition  to  caring  for  the 
manuscripts  and  publishing  them. 

He  has  the  editorial  care  of  the  Society's  two  monthly  periodicals — 
the  Chinese  Sunday-school  Child's  Paper  and  the  Chinese  Illustrated 
News.  During  the  year  the  Society  printed  18  new  works,  making 
240,570  copies,  and  equal  to  5,496,780  pages.  Of  their  popular  standard 
works  39  were  reprinted,  making  291,850  copies,  equal  to  4,848,400 
pages. 

HANGCHOW^  STATION. 

EVANGELISTIC— 

During  the  year  twenty-two  have  been  received  into  the  Hangchow 
Church  by  baptism,  three  by  letter,  and  one  under_  discipline  restored, 
one  dismissed,  three  have  died.  There  have  been  times  when  as  many 
as  thirty  have  been  before  the  session  at  one  time,  but  it  is  not  often 
that  one  is  received  on  a  first  application;  more  often  they  are  kept 
waiting  many  months. 

At  Zang-peh  the  work  is  more  encouraging.  This  Station  has 
been  supplied  from  Hangchow;  the  pastor  himself  making  frequent 
visits. 

Mr.  Judson  has  been  in  charge  of  the  lower  road  district  and  made 
four  trips,  visiting  in  nearly  all  the  Christian  homes,  preaching  on  the 
streets  and  distributing  tracts.  Through  the  close  touch  of  one  of  our 
evangelists  with  the  government  school  in  his  neighborhood,  an  invita- 
tion was  given  to  Mr.  Judson  to  give  some  experiments  in  physics  in 
the  schools.  From  this  the  idea  spread,  and  invitations  came  in  from 
schools  at  other  Stations  and  one  place  where  we  have  no  work, 
which  were  gladly  accepted.  In  these  lectures,  while  no  direct  Gospel 
preaching  could  be  done,  yet  proofs  of  God's  existence.  His  design  in 
creation,  could  be  presented  in  a  very  striking  way.  Then,  too,  this 
line  of  work  brings  us,  especially  our  native  helpers,  into  touch  with 
teachers  and  scholars,  giving  them  prestige  and  influence. 

Mr.  Herriott  has  been  in  charge  of  the  upper  river  district  and 
made  five  trips,  covering  a  period  of  103  days,  making  fifty-two  visits 
in  the  regular  Stations,  besides  visiting  many  other  cities,  towns,  and 
hamlets  and  covering  a  distance  of  some  5,000  //.  In  this  field  much 
of  the  traveling  must  be  done  on  foot,  occasionally  relieved  by  mountain 
chairs,  or  bi-long,  a  sort  of  basket,  in  which  one  must  sit  with  legs 
cramped  and  a  backing  only  about  a  foot  high. 

EDUCATIONAL.— Thirty-five  men  attended  the  Training 
Class  for  a  month,  and  eight  women  the  Women's  Class.  The 
Station  maintains  but  one  day-school.  In  the  Girls'  Boarding 
School  there  have  been  thirty-two  boarders.  Miss  Lyon  has 
had. to  manage  the  school  with  an  appropriation  of  only  $175, 
and  there  have  been  other  difficulties.     She  writes : 


56  CENTRAL  CHINA— SOOCHOW. 

A  word,  in  closing,  about  the  spiritual  life  of  the  school.  Satan 
has  been  working  very  strenuously  to  overthrow  the  work  of  the 
Spirit.  Among  the  girls  there  are  doubters,  there  are  those  who  speak 
disparagingly  of  Christianity.  A  spirit  of  unrest  from  without  has 
found  its  way  into  the  school  and  makes  doubly  difficult  the  spiritual 
side  of  the  work.  Yet  continued  and  growing  emphasis  has  been 
placed  upon  this  the  most  vital  part  of  all. 

Hangchow  College. — Mr.  Judson,  after  nearly  thirty  years' 
connection  with  the  college,  has  resigned  the  presidency.  Mr. 
Mattox  was  elected  to  fill  the  vacancy  for  one  year,  Mr. 
Fitch,  on  his  return  from  furlough,  was  transferred  from 
Ningpo  to  Hangchow,  and  has  worked  energetically  in  the 
interest  of  the  college. 

During  the  two  semesters  157  students  have  been  enrolled;  the  high- 
est attendance  being  136  and  the  average  attendance  about  125. 
Of  the  whole  number  eighty-two  were  either  Christians  or  the  children 
of  Christian  parents,  and  seventy-five  from  non-Christian  homes. 
Several  of  these  latter  are  applicants  for  baptism. 

A  notable  feature  in  the  year's  work  was  the  graduating  of  eleven 
students  from  the  college  in  January.  As  this  was  the  largest  class 
that  ever  graduated  in  the  history  of  the  college,  and  as  the  Chinese 
are  coming  to  appreciate  more  the  meaning  of  graduation,  it  was 
decided  to  make  a  little  more  of  the  occasion  than  for  the  past  few 
years.  The  exercises  were  held  in  the  church,  which  was  decorated 
with  flags,  banners  and  flowers.  Three  expect  to  study  for  the  minis- 
try.    One  was  in  the  seminary  for  half  a  year. 

Encouraging  progress  has  been  made  toward  the  removal  of 
the  college  to  the  beautiful  new  site  acquired  on  Hangchow 
Bay.  Over  $15,000  has  already  been  received,  and  nearly 
$20,000  more  has  been  pledged. 

GENERAL.— 

At  the  Autumn  festival,  September  22,  the  opium  pipes  and  trays, 
collected  by  order  of  the  authorities,  were  piled  in  two  great  pyramids 
on  the  city  hill,  where,  in  the  presence  of  mandarins,  a  large  crowd 
of  people  and  uniformed  students  with  the  banners  of  their  schools,  the 
torch  was  applied  to  these  doomed  instruments. 

The  cars  now  make  their  hourly  run  from  the  settlement  to  the 
river  bank,  just  a  short  distance  from  the  new  college  grounds,  and 
will,  in  all  probability,  be  extended  to  connect  with  Shanghai  on  the 
one  side  and  Ningpo  on  the  other  in  the  near  future. 

The  old  examination  halls,  where  for  generations  thousands  of 
students  have  come  up  for  their  annual  and  ten  thousands  for  their 
triennial  examinations,  have  been  torn  down,  and  in  their  place  a 
provincial  normal  school  building,  erected  large  enough  to  accom- 
modate 500  pupils,  was  opened  to  the  public  early  in  March. 

SOOCHOW  STATION. 

Apart  from  the  Station  work,  a  large  country  field  is  depend- 
ent upon  the  missionaries  in  Soochow,  containing  large  popu- 
lations almost  unreached.     Mr.  Crawford  writes : 


CENTRAL  CHINA— SOOCHOW.  57 

Our  farthest  out-station  at  Kwong-foh  is  only  sixty  li  from  Soo- 
chow,  but  it  is  surprising  that  before  it  is  reached  there  are  some 
market  towns  that  have  never  been  touched  before. 

Believers  and  inquirers  face  many  difficulties  in  the  way  of 
confession  and  service. 

In  the  instance  of  a  merchant  at  Dzon  Nyin  Gyao,  who  deals  in 
incense,  paper  money,  and  other  things  necessary  for  idolatrous  wor- 
ship, it  will  mean  the  giving  up  of  a  successful  business,  but  it  is  hoped 
that  he  will  do  so  or  make  some  change  which  will  enable  him  to  enter 
the  church  and  become  a  Christian.  Two  or  three  others  in  the  same 
place  are  quite  interested ;  one  j'oung  merchant  especially  so.  At  Tong 
Chu  is  another  young  merchant  who  fully  understands  and  believes, 
but  who  is  not  quite  ready  to  take  a  stand  on  the  Sabbath  question. 
One  old  man  is  a  thorough  believer,  but  still  insists  on  clinging  to 
one  or  two  things  which  belong  to  the  old  idolatrous  life. 

There  have  been  fifteen  boarders  in  the  Boys'  Boarding 
School. 

One  bo)',  whose  father  is  intensely  anti-foreign,  has  had  a  hard 
time.  The  father  has  pasted  a  notice  over  his  door  saying  that  no  one 
who  studies  a  foreign  language  may  cross  his  threshold.  The  son 
seems  determined  to  be  a  Christian,  in  spite  of  the  fact  that  the  father 
has  tried  to  beat  the  new  ideas  out  of  his  head  and  compel  him  to 
worship  his  ancestors. 

In  the  three  day-schools  there  have  been  thirty-four  pupils. 
Tooker  Memorial  Hospital. — 

The  hospital  was  reopened  after  the  Summer  vacation  on  September 
9.  The  Autumn  months  were  pleasantly  filled  with  work.  A  fair 
number  of  in-patients  was  received  and  the  clinics  were  well  attended. 
No  very  serious  cases  were  received.  The  arrival  of  a  co-laborer,  Dr. 
Anderson,  to  help  share  the  burden  seemed  to  be  the  signal  for  in- 
creased responsibility,  and  in  the  following  months  man}'  serious  cases 
were  treated  in  all  departments  of  the  work. 

An  old  temple,  not  far  from  the  hospital,  was  being  torn  down  and 
a  company  of  men  and  women  were  working  there  clearing  away  the 
debris.  A  large  stone,  which  it  afterwards  took  seven  men  to  lift, 
fell  over,  crushing  one  of  the  women.  She  was  brought  to  the  hospital, 
but  we  found  her  injuries  so  severe  that  we  despaired  of  her  life. 
One  femur  was  broken,  the  sternum  and  two  ribs,  besides  many 
bruises.  After  doing  what  we  could  for  her,  she  was  carried  to  her 
home,  not  far  away,  as  we  did  not  think  it  best  to  risk  her  dying  in 
the  hospital,  but  the  Lord  spared  her  life.  Several  visits  were  made 
to  her  home,  each  time  finding  the  splints  and  bandages  entirely 
removed.  She  and  her  husband  were  famine  refugees  who  had  come 
down  from  the  north  the  year  before,  and  the  house  in  which  they 
lived  with  their  three  children  was  a  tiny  brick  hut  about  six  by  eight 
feet  in  size,  with  no  light  but  that  which  came  from  the  door.  The 
patient's  bed  was  a  pile  of  straw  on  some  boards  on  the  ground,  and 
the  replacing  of  the  splints  under  the  conditions  was  not  an  easy 
matter.  Finding  after  a  few  days  that  she  was  not  going  to  succumb 
to  her  injuries  she  was  brought  to  the  hospital  again,  where  she 
remained  several  weeks  and  made  a  good  recovery.  The  husband  and 
wife  are  both  very  grateful  for  what  was  done  for  them  and  have

attended    church    services    quite    frequently   since    that    time,    showing 
much  interest  in  the  Gospel. 

Miss  Murray,  formerly  of  the  Friends'  Meeting  in  Nanking, 
carried  on  very  efficient  evangelistic  work  in  the  hospital  until 
appointed  by  the  Board  to  the  Hunan  Mission.  The  hospital 
had  135  in-patients,  with  an  average  stay  of  twenty-six  days ; 
there  were  3,015  first  visits  to  the  dispensary,  with  a  total  list 
of  6,402  visits ;  263  patients  were  seen  on  out-practice. 

MISSION  PRESS. 

Business  of  all  kinds  in  the  Far  East  has  been  depressed  to  a 
degree  rarely,  if  ever,  equaled  in  the  past.  This  has  culminated  dur- 
ing the  past  twelve  months  in  disastrous  failures  among  both  foreigners 
and  Chinese,  and  the  depression  does  not  seem  to  have  even  yet  reached 
the  turning  point.  This  situation  has  been  consequent  largely  on  the 
widespread  famines  which  have  prevailed  in  various  parts  of  the 
empire,  and  the  disastrous  floods  which  have  destroyed  so  much 
propert}^  thereby  limiting  the  purchasing  power  of  the  people.  Here  in 
Shanghai  the  cost  of  living  for  the  ordinary  Chinese  has  advanced  to 
an  unheard-of  degree,  and  wages  have,  for  the  most  part,  kept  pace 
with  the  rise  in  the  price  of  food. 

The  vacillations  of  exchange  have  also  been  a  serious  matter,  many 
accounts  being  payable  in  gold,  for  whereas  a  dollar  gold,  in  June, 
1907,  cost  but  one  dollar  and  eighty-four  cents  Mexican,  in  June,  1908, 
it  is   worth  two   dollars   and  thirty  cents   Mexican. 

Competition  from  native  printing  offices  and  book  stores  has  been 
more  keen  than  ever  before,  for  while  these  multiplied  rapidly  and 
did  a  thriving  business  for  a  while,  consequent  on  the  craze  for  the 
new  learning  and  the  demand  for  educational  works  of  all  kinds,  yet 
a  reaction  has  set  in,  the  work  having  been  overdone,  and  many 
failures  have  taken  place  in  consequence.  Many  of  those  which 
survive  have  been  willing  to  take  work  at  losing  rates  in  order  to 
keep  their  men  and  machines  busy. 

Notwithstanding  all  these  difficulties  we  are  pleased  to  be  able  to 
report  a  greater  output  than  ever  before,  even  if  our  finances  are  not 
in  as  good  a  condition  as  they  sometimes  have  been.

HAINAN  MISSION. 
HISTORICAL  SUMMARY. 

Two  hundred  and  ninety  miles  southeast  of  Hong  Kong 
hes  Hainan,  a  large  island  off  the  southeast  coast  of  China, 
from  which  it  is  separated  by  a  straight  about  fifteen  miles 
wide.  It  is  in  about  the  same  latitude  as  Cuba,  and  has  prac- 
tically the  same  tropical  climate.  It  is  about  i6o  miles  long 
and  ninety  miles  wide,  with  an  area  of  about  14,000  square 
miles.  It  is  about  twice  the  size  of  the  State  of  New  Jersey 
and  comprises  a  prefecture  of  the  Kwang  Tung  Province.  Its 
population  is  approximately  2,500,000,  and  it  was  occupied  by 
missionaries  in  1885  and  established  as  a  Mission  in  1893.  No 
other  missionaries  except  the  French  Roman  Catholics  are 
there.  Post-office,  Hoihow,  China,  via  Hong  Kong  (Hoihow 
is  the  port,  three  miles  from  Kiungchow,  and  a  part  of  the 
Station). 

The  missionary  force  of  the  Hainan  Mission  has  remained 
unchanged  during  the  past  year,  those  on  the  field  having  been 
reinforced  by  the  return  from  their  furloughs  of  Dr.  McCand- 
liss  and  Dr.  Lasell.  To  offset  this,  however,  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Mc- 
Clintock  and  Miss  Montgomery  started  on  their  furloughs,  so 
that  when  the  medical  work. was  strengthened  the  school  and 
evangelistic  work  was  interrupted. 

Dr.  Bryan  has  recovered  his  health,  and  as  soon  as  he  can 
be  released  from  responsibilities  which  for  the  present  keep 
him  in  the  United  States  he  will  return  to  the  field.  The  Mis- 
sion reports  the  completion  of  buildings  at  Kiungchow,  in 
connection  with  the  Paxton  and  Pitkin  Schools,  and  the  begin- 
ning of  the  chapel  at  Hoihow  and  the  doctor's  residence  at 
Kachek.  While  these  buildings  will  not  give  a  complete  equip- 
ment, they  will  greatly  facilitate  and  strengthen  the  work.  The 
Mission  is  greatly  indebted  to  the  donors  who  have  made 
these  improvements  possible.  The  Mission  reports  that,  in 
spite  of  plague  in  one  Station  and  cholera  in  another,  the  mis- 
sionaries have  been  unusually  well  during  the  past  year,  and 
that  there  has  been  advance  along  all  lines  of  work.  There 
have  been  more  catechumens  and  more  converts  than  ever 
before,  and  more  boys  and  girls  applying  for  admission  to  the 
schools. 

The  Mission  letter  closes  as  follows : 

We  look  back  over  the  year  and  offer  unto  God  our  sacrifices  of 
praise    and    thanksgiving,    and    we   turn    our    eyes    with    even    greater 
hopes  and  larger  expectations  to  another  year  of  service.

KIUNGCHO^W  STATION. 

EVANGELISTIC. — In  the  evangelistic  work  of  this  Sta- 
tion there  has  been  a  steady  growth  of  interest  among  the 
Christians.  This  has  been  manifested  in  the  desire  on  the  part 
of  some  to  guard  against  the  admission  to  membership  of 
those  whose  fitness  is  in  doubt.  At  the  Communion  services  an 
effort  has  been  made  to  prepare  by  special  instruction  the 
applicants  for  Baptism.  At  Kiungchow  and  Hoihow  the  last 
mid-winter  Communion  season  was  preceded  by  several  days' 
instruction  and  Bible  study.  More  than  forty  catechumens 
were  on  the  lists  during  the  year.  Of  these  fifteen  adults  have 
been  baptized  and  admitted  to  Communion  at  Kiungchow.  At 
Hoihow  ten  persons  were  received  on  profession  of  their 
faith  and  two  by  letter. 

Preaching  services  and  Sunday-school  have  been  held  regu- 
larly at  Hoihow  and  Kiungchow.  The  erection  at  Hoihow 
of  a  place  of  worship  suitable  to  its  needs  has  brought  great 
joy.  Dr.  McCandliss  received  in  America  funds  for  the  erec- 
tion of  a  church  building  to  seat  500  people.  It  is  expected 
that  the  new  church  will  be  called  "The  Jeremiassen  Memorial 
Church,"  in  memory  of  Mr.  C.  C.  Jeremiassen,  the  pioneer 
missionary  to  Hainan. 

Itineration. — Mr.  Campbell  has  two  native  colporteurs  almost 
constantly  in  the  field,  and  the  native  evangelist,  Mr.  Tang, 

61 


62  HAINAN— KIUNGCHOW. 

has  made  various  trips  to  the  country.  His  most  extended 
trip  was  to  the  Peninsula,  where  he  traveled  about  fifty-six  po 
(170  miles),  going  as  far  as  Lui-chow  City. 

Out-stations  and  Chapels. — Lia-kha  has  been  visited  by  Bible 
women  and  colporteurs  throughout  the  year.  During  the 
first  part  of  the  year  Colporteur  Ui  spent  half  of  his  time  at 
Lia-kha  and  the  other  half  at  Ku-chiu.  About  the  ist  of 
August,  Lio  Ci-teng,  a  Christian  school  teacher,  was  sent  to 
Lia-kha,  and  since  that  time  has  conducted  religious  services  at 
the  chapel  on  Sundays.  Last  Communion  two  brothers  from  Lia- 
kha  came  out  to  Kiungchow  and  after  examination  were  re- 
ceived into  the  church.  These  brothers  have  for  some  time 
wished  to  put  away  their  idols,  and  have  asked  Mr.  Campbell 
to  assist  in  burning  them. 

At  Kurchiu  a  newly  repaired  shop  has  been  rented  for  chapel 
work.  Colporteur  lap  Vun-fak  has  spent  the  greater  part 
of  his  time  in  the  Deng-ang  Chapel  and  at  Zi-ae.  A  chapel 
has  been  rented  near  the  South  Gate  of  Hoihow.  Mr.  Byers, 
the  native  evangelists,  and  the  Bible  women  have  used  it  in 
their  street  work.  The  Station  has  authorized  the  renting 
of  a  chapel  at  the  West  Gate  of  Kiungchow,  but  the  house 
cannot  conveniently  be  given  over  to  the  Mission  till  near  the 
Chinese  New  Year. 

EDUCATIONAL. — The  Paxton  Training  School  for  Chris- 
tian Workers. — There  were  about  thirty  boys  enrolled  each 
semester.  They  averaged  younger  in  age  than  the  students  of 
the  previous  year.  This  was  due  in  part  to  some  of  the  older 
boys  entering  the  Taotai's  school,  and  in  part  to  the  policy  of 
discouraging  men  over  twenty  years  from  entering. 

A  few  of  the  boys  in  the  upper  classes  are  receiving  instruc- 
tion in  English,  for  which  there  is  still  a  considerable  demand. 
If  the  study  of  English  were  open  to  all  comers  there  might 
be  a  much  larger  roll  of  students.  It  is,  however,  the  Mission's 
policy  to  build  up  the  school  on  a  reputation  in  general  lines 
of  instruction,  rather  than  increase  the  attendance  by  making 
a  specialty  of  English. 

Last  Winter  three  boys  of  the  school  united  with  the  church. 
As  these  are  boys  who  have  been  pupils  for  a  number  of  years, 
they  give  a  distinctly  Christian  tone  to  the  school. 

As  indicating  the  ever-increasing  demand  the  report  says : 

The  Fall  term  of  the  present  year  was  opened  September  i  by  Mr. 
Campbell.  There  are  thirty-four  enrolled  at  present,  nineteen  boarders 
and  nfteen  day  pupils.  The  day  scholars  come  from  the  street  and  the 
villages  near  the  North  Gate.  We  are  glad  to  have  more  friendly  rela- 
tions with  these  people,  who  have  hitherto  been  rather  indifferent,  if 
not  hostile  to  our  work. 

Last  year  a  call  was  made  by  the  people  of  the  Market  for  us  to 
open  a  day-school  in  Lia-kha  Chapel.     Kiungchow  Station  considered 


HAINAN— KIUNGCHOW.  63 

the  question  and  voted  to  open  a  day-school  there.  Lio  Ci-teng,  one 
of  the  teachers  in  the  Paxton  Training  School,  was  sent  to  Lia-kha 
in  August,  to  see  what  were  the  prospects  for  a  school.  He  found 
ten  or  more  pupils  ready  to  enter  and  the  school  was  opened  September 
I,  with  thirteen  enrolled.  More  pupils  are  expected  after  the  Chinese 
New  Year,  as  some  had  already  gone  to  other  schools  for  the  re- 
mainder of  this  year.  It  is  the  aim  to  make  this  school  a  feeder  to  the 
Paxton  Training  School. 

EDUCATIONAL.— r/i^  Pitkin  Girls'  Boarding  School— 
The  Girls'  School  has  been  in  session  nine  and  one-half  months 
this  past  year  and  has  been  full  to  overflowing.  There  has 
been  an  average  attendance  of  thirty  pupils  all  the  year.  Four 
new  pupils  have  been  added  this  Fall,  and  there  have  been 
several  applications  for  admittance  besides. 

In  the  Spring  an  epidemic  of  measles  and  whooping  cough 
broke  out,  and  more  than  one-half  of  the  girls  had  either  one 
or  the  other  and  some  had  both.  Aside  from  this  the  health 
of  the  girls  has  been  good.  The  older  girls  assist  in  the 
domestic  work — keeping  the  rooms  clean  and  in  order,  and 
also  assisting  in  the  kitchen  work.  Three  of  the  older  girls 
have  assisted  in  teaching. 

During  the  Summer  vacation  the  girls  stored  their  minds 
with  Scripture  verses ;  each  one,  from  youngest  to  the  oldest, 
learning  at  least  one  verse  daily  which  was  repeated  at  even- 
ing prayers.  The  older  girls  have  been  taking  their  turn 
in  teaching  the  Sunday-school  lesson  to  the  class.  One  pupil 
has  charge  of  the  primary  class. 

One  of  the  scholars,  and  also  a  former  pupil  who  is  now 
married,  have  united  with  the  church  during  the  year.  Now  all 
the  older  girls  are  members  of  the  church,  and  some  of  the 
younger  ones  have  asked  for  Baptism  and  will  be  ready  for 
examination  next  Communion  service.  One  of  the  girls  ad- 
mitted this  Fall  has  already  expressed  her  desire  and  intention 
of  unbinding  her  feet. 

There  are  some  exceedingly  bright,  promising  girls  in  the 
school — girls  with  fine  minds  and  good  dispositions.  The 
Christian  girls  are  faithful  and  earnest,  and  we  are  looking 
forward  to  their  becoming  powers  of  great  blessing  and  use- 
fulness to  the  women  and  girls  of  Hainan.  There  have  been 
a  great  many  visitors  at  the  school  during  the  year,  among 
whom  were  the  Taotai's  wife  and  the  magistrate  and  his  family. 

MEDICAL. — Hoihow  Hospital. — In  spite  of  the  fact  that 
Dr.  McCandliss  was  absent  on  furlough  and  Dr.  Bryan  com- 
pelled to  stop  work  because  of  his  health,  the  medical  work 
has  gone  right  on.  One  hundred  and  sixty-one  in-patients 
were  cared  for  and  there  was  an  attendance  of  4,535  at 
the  dispensary.  There  were  seventeen  serious  operations. 
Unfortunately    the    hospital    work    came    to    a    standstill  on 


64  HAINAN— NODOA. 

March  7,  the  hospital  remaining-  closed  until  August  19, 
somewhat  less  than  half  a  year.  Immediately  upon  being 
opened  it  filled  up,  and  all  the  available  rooms  were  occupied. 
The  dispensary,  too,  was  in  great  dema*nd,  the  attendance  in 
September  being  1,436. 

On  October  6  the  island  was  visited  by  a  typhoon,  and  the 
hospital,  in  common  with  the  whole  city  of  Hoihow,  was  in- 
undated from  the  sea.  The  swollen  river,  the  high  tide,  and  the 
wind  backing  up  the  water  in  the  river  made  the  water  in  the 
hospital  premises  about  four  feet  deep.  Considerable  damage 
was  done  to  the  interior  of  the  hospital.  Two  of  the  roofs  were 
damaged,  and  the  enclosing  stone  wall  in  front  of  the  Mission 
property  was  broken  down  by  the  violence  of  the  surf. 

WOMAN'S  WORK.— Of  the  Woman's  Work  the  report 
says: 

The  past  year  has  been  one  of  great  blessing  among  the  Christian 
women  of  our  Hoihow  congregation.  There  has  been  little  sickness, 
no  deaths,  and  we  feel  that  they  are  striving  after  a  closer  walk  with 
God. 

At  our  regular  Communion  services,  beginning  with  the  preceding 
Wednesday,  an  invitation  was  given  to  all  who  could  to  come  for  the 
four  following  days  for  study  and  instruction.  Twenty  were  present, 
though  it  was  a  busy  season  and  very  hard  for  the  women  to  leave 
their  work. 

As  an  eloquent  illustration  of  the  reality  of  the  religious 
confession  of  Hainanese  Christians  the  following  is  of  interest : 

One  of  our  chosen  ones  has  told  us  that  she  is  gathering  in  the 
little  loans  she  has  made  here  and  there,  selling  what  she  can,  and 
making  another  gift  of  $100  to  the  church.  She  has  but  her  day's 
work,  when  she  goes  to  her  daughters,  who  prepares  from  rice  a  sort 
of  thick  soup,  which  the  mother  sells  from  door  to  door  and  village 
to  village,  sitting  to  rest  while  her  customers  eat  and  seasoning  each 
bowl  with  the  Jesus  doctrine.  When  asked  what  would  be  left  to  live 
on,  she  replied  with  a  hearty  laugh,  and  showing  her  horny  hands,  "If 
my  eyes  don't  fail  altogether,  I  can  still  work.  I  have  bought  my 
coffin,  my  grave  clothes  are  made;  what  need  of  more?" 


NODOA  STATION. 

CHURCH  AND  EVANGELISTIC— There  have  been 
twenty-two  persons  added  to  the  church  this  year.  Four  have 
been  lost,  making  the  total  number  of  Christians  now  149. 
These  twenty-two  have  come  from  widely  scattered  regions. 

The  bi-monthly  gatherings  for  catechumens  before  each 
communion  have  been  held,  and  they  have  several  times  been 
all  but  swamped  by  the  numbers. 

The  following  account  gives  graphic  proof  of  the  eagerness 
of  the  people  to  hear  the  Gospel : 


HAINAN— NODOA.  65 

We  escaped  two  great  embarrassments,  because  one  Communion 
had  to  be  omitted  owing  to  plague  in  Nodoa,  and  we  delayed  the  open- 
ing of  school  in  the  Autumn  for  a  week  or  two,  so  that  we  could  have 
room  for  the  September  gathering;  for  at  that  time  we  elected  an  elder, 
and  many  of  the  Christians  had  to  come  to  spend  a  night.  We  filled 
the  dormitories  of  both  schools  and  all  other  available  space,  includ- 
ing a  part  of  the  hospital.  On  Sunday  morning  the  chapel  overflowed, 
without  the  presence  of  the  school.  We  have  enrolled  now  ninety- 
three  catechumens,  sixty-one  of  them  men  and  thirty-two  women. 
Of  the  total,  sixty-five  were  new  names  enrolled  this  year. 

"The  Red  Motto." 

A  chapel  has  been  rented  at  No-tia,  and  the  compound  proved  to 
oe  the  very  one  that  Dr.  Vanderburgh  had  tried  to  rent  ten  years 
before.  On  passing  through  the  compound  with  some  Christian 
friends,  coming  out  the  back  door,  and  looking  back  they  saw  a  red 
motto  over  the  door.  Red  mottoes  over  the  door  and  at  the  sides  of 
the  door  are  the  commonest  thing  in  China,  but  never  with  just  such 
sentiments  as  this,  "Holy  Spirit,  in  light  draw  near."  It  surely  ex- 
pressed the  desire  of  our  hearts  for  that  very  spot,  but  we  had  never 
expected  to  see  it  over  the  door  of  a  house  that  had  sixteen  idols,  big 
and  little,  sitting  together  on  a  high  table  in  the  hall.  It  seemed  almost 
like  an  omen  or  prophecy.  Its  being  there  was  explained  when  we 
found  that  a  tenant  had  had  instruction  some  years  ago  by  the  Roman 
Catholic  Fathers  in  Kiungchow.  But  the  omen  and  prophecy  was  in 
our  hearts,  and  when  some  weeks  later  about  fifteen  Christians  met 
in  the  hall  where  the  idols  had  been,  and  one  after  the  other  in  short 
prayers  asked  for  God's  blessing  on  the  place  we  then  dedicated  to 
Him,  the  prophecy  was  not  only  already  in  part  fulfilled,  but  was  be- 
coming brighter  and  stronger  as  an  earnest  of  things  to  come.  On 
the  day  that  the  chapel  was  opened  there  were  already  twenty-two 
Christians  in  the  region  about  No-tia,  and  twenty  others  in  that  region 
who  had  come  to  Nodoa  for  instruction  and  had  been  enrolled  as 
catechumens. 

The  Work  in  the  Out-stations. — Work  has  been  carried  on 
this  year  at  Beng-liam,  No-tia,  Ham-hui,  Tai-fong  and  Lim-ko 
City.  From  Dang-bai-khoi,  twelve  miles  northeast  of  No-tia, 
came  the  twenty-two  Christians,  as  mentioned  above. 

At  Tai-fong  there  are  two  Christians  and  fourteen  catechu- 
mens. 

At  and  near  Lim-ko  City  there  are  six  Christians  and  fifteen 
catechumens.  Lim-ko  City  is  thirty-five  miles  from  Nodoa,  and 
there  should  be  a  permanent  preaching  place  there. 

Dr.  Kelly  has  made  eighteen  trips  to  Nam-fong,  to  preach  as 
well  as  to  help  the  sick.  Among  the  catechumens  there  are 
three  men  and  twelve  women  who  come  from  near  Nam-fong, 
and  three  of  the  persons  baptized  were  from  that  region. 
Preaching  services  have  been  held  every  Sunday  by  Dr.  Kelly 
or  Mr.  Un. 

A  Foregleam  of  the  Future. — Since  no  missionary  has  been 

able  to  do  any  itinerating,  that  work  has  fallen  entirely  to  the 

Chinese.    The  four  colporteurs  spent  two  months  at  the  Station 

for  study,  under  the  instruction  of  Mrs.  Melrose  and  the  Chin-

ese  assistant,  and  then  started  out,  like  the  disciples,  to  spread 
the  Evangel  through  the  villages.  Every  two  months  they 
brought  new  people  whom  they  had  found,  up  to  Nodoa  for 
instruction.  It  was  a  truly  interesting  sight  to  watch  them 
coming  in  Communion  week  with  their  recruits. 

WOMAN'S  EVANGELISTIC  WORK.— The  three  Bible 
women  have  spent  126  days  in  country  work,  carrying  the  Gos- 
pel from  house  to  house  and  village  to  village,  as  well  as  carry- 
ing on  evangelistic  work  in  the  hospital. 

Mrs.  Kelly  has  held  weekly  prayer  meetings  for  the  women, 
with  an  average  attendance  of  between  fifty  and  sixty.  The 
women  are  growing  in  grace  and  the  knowledge  of  Christ. 
The  Bible  women  have  had  a  thorough  course  in  the  Old  Testa- 
ment as  well  as  in  the  Life  of  Christ,  and  have  shown  great 
improvement  in  their  powers  of  grasping  the  truth,  and  in 
imparting  their  knowledge  to  others.  Often  teachers  and 
pupils  have  sat  together  in  heavenly  places  as  they  studied  the 
Word. 

A  Christian  woman  whose  son  went  astray  and  broke  nearly 
the  whole  Decalogue  has  said,  "If  I  were  not  a  Christian,  I 
could  not  bear  it.  I  would  lie  down  and  die  of  anger  and  grief. 
God  is  my  refuge." 

EDUCATIONAL.— Boys'  Boarding  School— There  has 
been  an  enrollment  of  eighty-eight  boys,  representing  five  of 
the  languages  of  this  polyglot  region.  Most  of  the  teaching 
in  the  Middle  School  has  been  done  in  Mandarin.  Three 
graduates  of  the  school  have  done  the  teaching.  One  divides 
the  mathematic  classes  this  year  with  the  superintendent,  the 
second  teaches  geography,  chemistry  and  other  branches,  while 
the  third  has  the  smaller  boys,  about  thirty-five  of  them,  vmder 
his  complete  charge  in  a  room  by  themselves. 

Commencement  Scene. — 

Since  1900  four  young  men  have  graduated  from  the  Middle  School, 
completing  a  course  of  study  which  is  equal  at  least  to  a  high  school 
course  in  America.  The  last  young  man  to  graduate  took  his  diploma 
at  the  end  of  the  last  school  year  and  just  before  Mr.  McClintock  left 
for  America.  The  local  gentry  by  invitation  attended  the  closing 
exercises.  The  graduating  pupil  delivered  an  oration  and  then  the 
literati  opened  their  eyes  wider  and  wider  as  they  listened  to  exhibi- 
tion examinations  in  arithmetic  and  geography,  in  which  small  boj'S 
solved  problems  and  answered  questions  about  the  rest  of  the  earth 
which  those  worthy  gentlemen  were  just  beginning  to  get  a  smattering 
of  themselves.  They  expressed  their  appreciation  of  Mr.  McClintock's 
work  a  few  days  later  on  his  leaving  for  America  when  they,  as  well 
as  the  school,  presented  him  with  silk  scrolls  and  followed  him  with 
salvos  of  fire-crackers. 

Girls  Boarding  School. — The  girls'  school  has  been  of  a 
mixed  character  this  year.     There  has  been  an  enrollment  of 


HAINAN— NODOA.  ©7 

thirty-five — eighteen  boarders  and  seventeen  day  pupils.  Of 
these  day  pupils  eleven  were  small  boys  who  were  crowded 
out  of  the  boys'  school.  Two  of  the  Bible  women  have  spent 
all  of  their  spare  time  studying  with  the  girls,  and  the  superin- 
tendent has  kept  up  a  woman's  Bible  class  for  Bible  women, 
teachers,  and  assistants'  Vv'ives  in  connection  with  the  school. 
Two  of  the  girls  have  asked  for  Baptism  during  the  year. 
The  Mary  Henry  Hospital. — 

Last  year  bubonic  plague  scarcely  visited  the  Nodoa  region.  This 
year  rats  have  died  right  within  the  compound.  We  have  been  fortu- 
nate, however,  in  having  proved  the  falsity  of  the  legendary  state- 
ment "that  two  Chinamen  die  for  every  dead  rat,''  and  have  come 
through  the  three  months"  siege  without  the  loss  of  any  of  our 
Christians  here  or  in  the  villages,  though  many  people  died  within  a 
stone's  throw  of  our  compound.  The  hospital  was  closed  and  used 
as  a  residence  for  our  native  helpers,  who  took  refuge  therein  from 
the  dying  rats.  The  dispensary  was  kept  open,  however,  and  received 
many  calls  from  people  far  and  near.  The  general  summary  for  the 
year  is  as  follows : 

In-patients    150 

Out-patients,  attendance  at  clinic   9,370 

Nam-fong  clinic   301 

Trips  to  villages  27 

Trips  to  Nam-fong  18 

Trips  to  Market,  including  the  Yamen  48 

Maternity  cases    8 

Surgical  cases  requiring  anesthesia  20 

Total    9,942 

There  were  six  deaths;  three  of  the  cases  were  brought  to  the 
hospital  in  a  moribund  condition. 

The  Watermelon  Man. — The  following  story  of  a  young  man  with 
"watermelons"  will  illustrate  how  far  influence  may  quickly  reach. 
This  young  man  belongs  to  one  of  the  leading  families  in  the  Market. 
Dr.  Kelly  was  first  called  to  his  home,  and  found  the  patient  in  high 
fever  and  with  two  large  tumorous  abscesses — "watermelons"  the  peo- 
ple call  them,  and  when  a  man  begins  to  raise  watermelons  in  his 
body  it  is  said  to  be  all  over  with  him.  He  was  superstitiously  afraid 
of  the  hospital  and  insisted  on  the  doctor  coming  to  his  house,  which 
the  doctor  could  not  do.  Reluctantly  he  consented  to  ride  in  a  chair 
to  and  from  the  hospital,  but  not  to  stay.  A  few  times  he  dared  to 
stay  over  night,  and  then  resumed  his  riding,  but  he  quit  coming  before 
complete  recovery.  It  was  not  many  days,  however,  till  Dr.  Kelly  was 
called  to  see  him  again  in  his  home  with  another  large  watermelon 
cropped  out  and  ready  to  "plug."  The  poor  fellow  could  not  have 
his  own  way  if  he  would,  so  after  a  good  scolding,  another  operation 
and  over  a  month's  treatment,  during  which  time  he  took  up  his  abode 
in  the  hospital,  heard  the  Gospel,  made  good  his  recovery  and  the 
"watermelon"  season  was  over  with  him.  A  doctor  never  had  a  more 
grateful  patient  after  recovery.  He  began  at  once  among  his  many 
friends  to  "drum  up  trade"  for  the  hospital,  spent  days  on  the  street 
preaching  our  doctrines  and  telling  people  that  they  were  mistaken 
in  their  ideas  of  doing  devil  for  sickness.  Nearly  every  day  he  ushered 
the  people  into  the  hospital  from  the  street,  and  never  before,  at  least 
in  the  present  doctor's  experience  here,  was  there  such  a  rush  on  the 
Mary  Henry  Hospital.    He  is  now  a  catechumen. 


68  HAINAN— KACHEK.     - 

Six  men  were  treated  for  the  opium  habit  and  five  cured. 

Breaking  of  Opposition.— Here  is  a  sample  story  telling  how  opposi- 
tion breaks  away.  The  "big"  and  the  "little"  wife  of  a  well-to-do  man 
in  a  notoriously  hostile  community  brought  a  dying  child  to  the  hos- 
pital. The  "big"  wife  had  four  children,  all  sons,  too,  and  all  died 
mysteriously  (?)  after  a  few  days  high  fever.  The  priests  and  the 
people  all  shook  their  heads  and  said,  "The  idol  is  doing  them."  For 
had  not  the  grandfather  been  an  inveterate  gambler;  that  was  not  a 
sin,  to  be  sure,  but  the  grandfather  had  promised  the  idol  a  certain 
sum  of  money  if  he  won.  He  lost,  and  not  only  failed  to  pay  back 
the  money,  but  took  some  of  the  idol's  bangles  off  and  gambled  the 
proceeds.  The  idol  was  a  particularly  strong  one  and  was  very  wroth, 
and  said  he  would  destroy  the  family.  The  "big"  wife's  prayers  for 
a  son  were  not  answered.  There  was  no  son  to  carry  on  the  name  and 
worship  the  ancestors — a  great  calamity !  And  so  the  "big"  wife  was 
willing  there  should  be  a  wife  No.  2.  A  Limko  woman,  without  any 
recommendation  except  that  she  gave  promise  of  motherhood,  very 
soon  was  picked  up  by  the  wayside.  In  due  course  the  baby  came,  and 
a  boy !  Alas !  it,  too,  sickened.  Thousands  of  cash  went  in  devil 
worship.  All  hope  was  gone  and  despair  seized  the  family.  Someone 
said,  "Why  not  try  the  foreign  doctor?"  So  the  "big"  and  the  "little" 
wife  both  came  to  the  hospital,  praying  Dr.  Kelly  to  heal  the  baby.  The 
doctor  shook  his  head.  "Your  baby  is  beyond  my  help.  If  you  had 
come  in  time,  it  might  have  been  saved.  Other  cases  like  it  have 
recovered."  The  baby  died.  As  the  women  lingered  the  Bible  women 
talked  doctrine.  They  came  to  the  missionary's  home  with  the  Bible 
woman,  and  the  missionary  talked  doctrine,  too.  The  "big"  wife  be- 
gan to  see  light  and  hope.  She  went  home  and  brought  her  husband, 
and  they  have  been  up  several  Communion  seasons  as  catechumens. 
The  idol  failed  them,  and  now  they  propose  to  serve  God.  These 
people  come  from  a   region   where  opposition   has   been  very  strong. 

The  report  closes  to-night,  and  as  the  doctor  made  his  rounds  at 
the  hospital  he  suddenly  came  upon  Kim-wong,  a  Christian  young 
man,  on  his  knees,  praying  with  his  wife  and  new-born  baby  in  the 
maternity  ward — an  example  for  all  the  heathen  patients. 

kajChek  station. 

EVANGELISTIC. — As  yet  there  is  no  organized  church, 
but  the  little  band  of  Christians  constitute  what  goes  by  the 
name  of  "church,"  presided  over  by  Mr.  Oilman,  and  holding 
Sunday  service  and  Sunday-school  and  a  mid-week  prayer 
meeting.  This  is  really  the  germ  of  the  Kachek  Church,  which 
it  is  hoped  will  some  day  be  a  formal  organization. 

The  evangelistic  work  in  Kachek  Station,  aside  from  the 
work  among  women,  consists  principally  of  the  services  held 
each  market  day  in  the  street  chapel,  where  for  two  or  three 
hours  a  changing  crowd  listens  to  the  preaching.  Here  many 
from  all  parts  of  the  eastern  coast  of  Hainan  have  heard  the 
Gospel,  It  has  been  especially  popular  since  a  new  convert, 
Lee,  began  to  preach  and  tell  of  his  conversion.  On  each  even- 
ing a  Bible  class  has  been  held  at  the  hospital  chapel,  first  by 
Miss  Schaeffer,  and,  after  his  return  from  furlough,  by  Dr. 
Lasell. 

Work  has  been  carried  on  in  the  country  chapels  as  follows : 


HAINAN— KACHEK.  69 

Doa-lou. — This  chapel  is  at  a  market  town  about  twelve 
miles  from  Kackek,  on  the  road  to  Hoihow.  In  this  chapel  a 
service  has  been  held  on  Sundays  twice  each  month,  with  more 
or  less  regularity.  It  has  usually  been  conducted  by  one  of 
the  helpers  from  Kachek. 

Ui-hong. — This  chapel  is  at  the  district  city,  about  five  miles 
from  Kachek,  where  a  small  shop  was  rented  at  an  expense  of 
about  $6  gold  a  year  for  a  preaching  place.  Miss  Schaeffer 
and  Mr.  Oilman  have  visited  it  several  times,  and  the  native 
helpers  have  gone  frequently  from  Kachek  for  a  few  hours' 
work  in  this  chapel. 

No-Iak. — This  chapel  is  on  the  main  street  of  one  of  the  prin- 
cipal towns  of  the  Vang-chiu  District,  about  thirty  miles  south 
of  Kachek.  A  Christian  school  teacher,  Mr.  Bang,  formerly 
a  helper  of  the  Mission,  has  had  a  service  here  on  Sundays 
throughout  the  year. 

Lok-lah. — At  this  chapel  our  helper,  Mr.  Ngang,  has  held 
regular  services  on  every  Sunday  throughout  the  year,  and 
the  thirty  or  more  Christians  with  their  families  and  friends 
have  been  very  faithful  in  attendance.  Lok-lah  is  in  the  ex- 
treme southwest  of  Hainan  and  is  very  difficult  of  access : 
Two  visits  have  been  made  there,  one  by  Miss  Schaeffer  and 
the  other  by  Mr.  Oilman.  During  the  visit  made  by  Mr. 
Oilman,  he  was  not  only  able  to  give  a  course  of  Bible  instruc- 
tion in  both  the  Old  and  New  Testaments,  but  he  reached 
there  just  at  the  time  of  the  beginning  of  a  persecution  of  the 
Christians,  which  he  was  able  to  head  off  by  securing  from 
the  Magistrate  of  the  district  a  proclamation  which  told  the 
people  of  the  rights  of  the  Christians  to  teach  and  to  preach 
without  being  molested. 

EDUCATIONAL.— This  is  the  fifth  year  that  a  school  has 
been  conducted  in  Kachek  under  the  supervision  of  Mr.  Oil- 
man, and  the  number  of  scholars  enrolled  has  been  about 
thirty.  Though  smaller  than  some  previous  years,  the  attend- 
ance has  been  more  regular.  The  school  being  composed 
mostly  of  former  pupils  and  boys  from  Christian  families, 
their  progress  has  been  highly  satisfactory.  There  has  been 
only  one  Chinese  teacher  employed.  Two  of  the  older  pupils 
have  done  most  of  the  teaching  of  geography  and  calisthenics, 
while  the  instruction  in  Bible  and  mathematics  has  been  given 
by  Mr.  Oilman,  and  in  English  by  Mrs.  Oilman. 

The  school  compound  has  been  improved  during  the  year 
by  the  erection  of  needed  outbuildings  and  a  wall  at  the  back 
of  the  dormitory,  where  it  took  the  place  of  a  mosquito-breed- 
ing hedge.  This  improvement  was  made  by  the  gift  of  Mr, 
H.  B.  McCormick,  of  Harrisburg,  Pa.,  who  has  been  an  es- 
pecial patron  of  the  school. 


70  HAINAN— KACHEK. 

Girls'  Day-schools. — The  girls'  school  in  the  lower  Market, 
Kachek,  has  been  in  session  three  months  with  an  attendance 
of  thirteen.  During  the  four  weeks  that  Miss  Schaeffer  spent 
at  Lok-lah,  ten  girls  met  with  her  for  daily  study.  At  Tin-tai 
village  the  girls'  school  started  by  Mr.  Bang  last  year  was 
taught  by  our  Bible  women  for  three  weeks  this  summer.  A 
training  class  of  five  women,  known  among  us  as  "The  Daugh- 
ters' School,"  was  held  in  the  women's  ward  of  the  Kilborne 
Hospital  during  five  months  of  the  present  year. 

Hospital  work  at  Kachek  has  been  somewhat  irregular  for 
the  past  two  years,  owing  to  Dr.  Lasell's  absence  and  Dr. 
Bryan's  transfer  to  Hoihow.  After  that  time  medical  work 
was  in  the  hands  of  the  other  missionaries  and  the  Chinese 
assistant,  who,  faithful  and  reliable  as  he  is,  has  not  had  train- 
ing enabling  him  to  do  even  proper  dispensary  work.  In  July 
of  this  year  Dr.  Lasell  returned  and  the  hospital  and  dispen- 
sary started  to  work  again.  Patients  were  waiting,  and  there 
has  been  sufficient  work  to  keep  the  force  moderately  busy. 
Some  twenty  in-patients  have  been  admitted,  mostly  from  the 
Vang-chiu  region,  and  among  them  have  been  a  half  dozen 
or  so  of  women.  The  records  kept  by  the  assistant  are  very 
imperfect,  but  the  statistics  seem  to  be  approximately:  Out- 
patients, 2,400;  in-patients,  20  (these  all  since  July). 

WOMAN'S  WORK.— The  two  Bible  women  have  made 
several  visits  to  the  country  chapels,  spending  a  month  in  the 
vicinity  of  No-lak,  two  weeks  at  Doa-lou,  and  one  week  in 
the  district  city  of  Ui-hong.  When  at  home  in  Kachek,  they 
have  worked  faithfully  visiting  in  the  market  and  nearby  vil- 
lages and  selling  tracts  and  calendars.  Everywhere  there  are 
opportunities  for  aggressive  work,  and  the  baptism  of  five 
women  in  the  Station  this  year  is  a  cause  for  rejoicing.  One 
of  these,  Zeeto,  of  Lok-lah  village,  170  miles  away,  after  five 
months  in  the  training  class,  returned  to  her  home  and  im- 
mediately began  to  instruct  the  women  and  girls  of  her 
acquaintance. 

Seeing  Jesus. — Another  of  the  women  baptized  is  Mrs.  Lee,  the 
mother  of  Mr.  Lee,  who  is  himself  a  remarkable  convert.  Mrs.  Lee 
is  sixty-six  years  old,  and  before  coming  to  Kachek,  last  Spring,  she 
had  never  seen  a  foreign  missionary,  but  the  Saviour  was  no  stranger 
to  her,  for  she  had  learned  of  Him  from  her  son  in  her  own  home. 
She  unbound  her  feet,  in  obedience  to  a  dream  which  she  had  after 
accepting  the  truth  of  the  Gospel.  After  one  of  the  Sunday  meetings 
in  Kachek,  she  said  to  one  of  the  missionary  ladies,  "You  have  been 
speaking  to-day  of  'knowing  Jesus' :  do  you  know  that  I  have  seen 
Him?  I  did  not  dare  to  tell  my  village  sisters  of  this,  lest  they  say 
of  me  that  I  had  gone  crazy,  as  they  said  of  my  son  when  he  burned 
his  fortune-telling  books  and  destroyed  the  family  idols  when  he  was 
converted ;  but  I  had  a  vision  of  the  Saviour  one  Sunday  afternoon  at 
home,  while  my  son  was  out  on  the  hillside  praying.    When  he  returned

HUNAN    MISSION. 
HISTORICAL  SUMMARY. 

The  Hunan  Mission  was  founded  in  1899  and  is  therefore 
but  ten  years  old.  During  this  period  the  work  has  expanded 
to  such  an  extent  that  there  are  now  upwards  of  thirty  mis- 
sionaries in  its  four  Stations.  The  work  extends  from  Chen- 
chow  on  the  extreme  south  of  the  Province,  to  Siangtan  and 
Changteh  on  the  north.  During  the  past  year  the  Mission  has 
been  severely  tested  and  the  shadows  have  fallen  darkly  upon 
it.  Mrs.  Derr,  who  was  in  the  country  caring  for  her  invalid 
mother,  was  taken  ill  herself  and  had  to  cable  for  Mr.  Derr 
to  join  her.  Mrs.  Berst,  one  of  the  choice  spirits  of  the  Mis- 
sion, died  on  December  11,  1908,  after  a  brief  illness.  A  little 
child  was  taken  both  from  the  Preston  and  Jenkins'  homes  and 
Mr.  Lingle  was  incapacitated  for  work  for  two  months. 

An  additional  problem  had  to  be  met  because  of  the  coinci- 
dence of  so  many  furloughs  falling  due  at  the  same  time,  those 
of  the  Tookers,  Derrs,  Logans,  Gelwicks  and  Dr.  Lewis  all 
overlapping. 

Fortunately,  through  the  kindness  of  a  friend,  money  was 
obtained  so  that  Rev.  E.  F.  Knickerbocker,  formerly  of  the 
China  Inland  Mission,  and  who  already  has  the  language,  is  to 
start  at  once  to  fill  in  the  gap  until  some  of  those  on  furlough 
return.  Progress  has  been  made  in  the  school  buildings  at 
Siangtan  and  Changteh  and  houses  have  been  provided  for 
both  Mr.  Jenkins  and  Mr.  Preston.  Money  is  also  in  hand 
for  Dr.  Robertson's  hospital  at  Hengchow,  having  been  given 
through  the  kindness  of  the  Woman's  Board  of  New  York. 
The  building  will  soon  be  started  and  w^hen  Dr.  Lewis  returns 
from  his  furlough  he  will  take  with  him  some  new  equipment 
for  the  hospital  at  Chenchow,  this  money  having  been  given 
by  a  friend.

SIANGTAN   STATION. 

The  familiar  promise,  "As  thy  day  so  shall  thy  strength  be," 
has  been  fully  verified  in  the  days  of  the  year  just  closed. 

The  members  of  Siangtan  Station  faced  a  new  year's  work 
with  only  half  the  working  force  of  the  preceding  year,  but 
the  work  has  gone  on  with  no  interruption. 

A  regular  weekly  prayer  meeting  has  been  a  source  of  much 
comfort  and  help,  and  a  special  Easter  service,  with  bright 
new  music  from  home,  made  a  pleasant  variation  in  the  Sab- 
bath afternoon  vuiion  service. 

In  March  Dr.  Arthur  Smith  visited  Siangtan,  giving  two 
delightful  addresses  in  the  church. 

EVANGELISTIC— 7/2<?  Church.— Sunday-school  and 
church  services  have  been  held  regularly  every  Sunday  morn- 
ing.   Dr.  Vanderburgh  is  Sunday-school  Superintendent.    The

attendance  has  been  very  good  throughout  the  year.  At  Christ- 
mas time  an  entertainment  was  given.  The  boys  and  girls 
of  the  schools  made  some  beautiful  decorations  for  the  church 
and  their  songs  and  other  exercises  were  given  with  a  spirit 
that  showed  their  appreciation  of  the  meaning  of  the  day. 

The  morning  services  have  been  conducted  by  Mr.  Lingle, 
who  has  done  most  of  the  preaching.  On  the  other  days  that 
he  has  been  at  the  out-station  Mr.  Liu,  the  evangelist,  or  Mr. 
Wan,  the  hospital  evangelist,  has  preached. 

There  are  sixty-two  on  the  roll  of  membership  in  regular 
standing.  Thirteen  have  been  received  into  the  church  in  the 
last  year.     Two  members  have  died. 

The  midweek  prayer  meeting  has  been  held  regularly  under 
the  charge  of  Dr.  V^anderburgh.  Many  outsiders  have  at- 
tended these  meetings,  and  we  hope  to  reach  some  of  our 
neighbors  in  this  way. 

Chapels. — The  Fourteenth  ward,  or  our  city,  chapel  is  the 
most  important  preaching  place.  Daily  preaching  is  con- 
ducted there  since  Mr.  Liu's  arrival  and  the  services  are  well 
attended.  Mr.  Liu  preaches  with  characteristic  Methodist 
earnestness. 

The  work  in  I  Si  Hoa  is  difficult.  Mr.  Chang,  who  was  for 
so  many  years  the  chapel  keeper  and  school-teacher  in  the 
city,  is  in  charge  of  the  chapel  there.  Ten  scholars  attend  the 
day-school. 

The  work  at  I  Kiau  Wan  is  carried  on  by  Mr.  Li  Sheng 
as  chapel  keeper  and  teacher.  Mr.  Li  has  made  friends  with 
the  people  and  is  an  earnest  preacher.  He  has  a  day-school 
of  nine  pupils. 

A  new  out-station  was  added  when,  at  the  beginning  of  the 
year,  Mr.  Lingle  opened  a  chapel  at  Kiang  Che,  a  good-sized 
town  on  the  main  road  to  Pao  Chin-fu,  thirty-five  li  from 
Siangtan.  Mr.  Li,  who  has  also  had  two  years  in  the  evan- 
gelistic class  under  Mr.  Gelwicks,  is  in  charge  of  this  new 
chapel.  A  small  place  for  preaching  was  rented  without  any 
trouble,  and  the  people  are  friendly  and  hear  the  Gospel 
gladly. 

EDUCATIONAL.— /o/m  D.  Wells  Boarding  Sehool  for 
Boys. — Mr.  and  Mrs.  Lingle  were  put  in  charge  of  the  school 
in  August,  upon  the  removal  of  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Lovell  to 
Changteh.  The  school  has  suffered  many  changes  of  policy, 
changes  of  courses,  and  changes  of  people  in  charge,  and  has 
finally  reverted  to  its  originators,  who  are  trying  to  change 
as  little  as  possible  the  general  policy  and  rules  of  the  last 
incumbent. 

There  have  been  thirty-one  enrollments  this  year.  A  number 
of  the  students  hearins:  that   Mr.  Lovell   was  transferred  to 


HUNAN— SIANGTAN.  77 

Changteh,  supposing  that  the  school  would  be  closed,  entered 
the  Yale  school  in  Changsha. 

The  religious  life  of  the  school  has  been  encouraging,  although  only 
two  hoys  have  joined  the  church.  A  number  have  declared  their  inten- 
tion of  making  an  open  profession  of  their  faith  in  the  near  future. 
The  morning's  sermon  is  reported  every  Sunday  evening. 

The  standard  of  scholarsiiip  has  been  much  iiigher  this  term;  the 
students  are  learning  to  really  work  at  their  studies.  A  literary  society 
is  helping  them  to  learn  to  conduct  meetings  in  a  parliamentary  way. 

Mrs.  Lingle  writes: 

The  much  desired  funds  for  building  have  come  this  year,  and  we  are 
very  grateful  to  God,  and  to  the  donors,  Mrs.  Russell  Sage,  Mr.  L.  H. 
Severance  and  Mr.  Post,  who  contributed  several  years  ago.  This 
money  will  enable  us  to  finish  the  building  as  planned.  There  will  be 
accommodation  for  nearly  lOO  boys.  We  are  very  thankful  for  increased 
facilities  and  opportunities,  and  hope  and  pray  that  this  school,  which 
has  had  so  many  ups  and  'downs,  may  now  be  on  the  way  to  success, 
a  power  for  good  in  preparing  many  for  work  for  God  in  Hunan. 

Sunny  Side  School  for  Girls. — In  September  Miss  Kolfrat 
moved  her  girls'  school  from  the  city  to  the  woman's  ward  of 
the  hospital,  where  they  have  a  comfortable  temporary  home 
while  waiting  for  the  completion  of  their  new  building.  There 
are  seventeen  girls  enrolled. 

Miss  Kolfrat  writes : 

Considering  the  interruptions  because  of  sickness,  the  girls  have 
made  good  progress  in  their  studies  and  domestic  work.  The  spirit 
of  helpfulness  and  growth  along  the  line  of  self-control  has  been  very 
gratifying. 

The  report  would  not  be  complete  without  giving  a  tribute  to  the 
faithful  service  of  Mrs.  Wang,  who  has  left  us  for  her  home  in  Shan 
Tung.  During  her  husband's  illness  Mrs.  Wang  kept  up  her  work 
even  though  urged  to  take  a  rest,  and  we  shall  miss  her  very  much  in 
the  school. 

Three  of  our  girls  expect  to  be  baptized  at  our  next  Communion. 
Then  all  our  original  students  will  be  baptized  Christians.  Our  number 
is  small,  but  the  Lord  has  given  us  results  that  will  tell  for  the  up- 
building of  His  kingdom  in  Siangtan. 

Day-schools. — The  parish  school  has  been  under  the  care 
of  Miss  Kolfrat  and  Mrs.  Vanderburgh.  There  are  eleven 
regular  scholars.  This  school  has  been  supported  by  the 
church  since  the  Chinese  New  Year. 

Mrs.  Liu,  wife  of  the  evangelist,  has  a  school  of  twenty 
pupils  in  the  Fourteenth  ward  chapel.  Mrs.  Liu  is  a  graduate 
of  the  Kiukiang  Methodist  school  and  is  a  competent  teacher. 
She  has  put  new  life  into  the  school. 

WOMAN'S  WORK.— All  the  ladies  of  the  Station  have 
spent  from  four  to  six  hours  daily  in  the  school-room,  so,  it 
can  readily  be  seen  that  there  has  been   very  little  time   for 


78  HUNAN— SIANGTAN. 

regular  woman's  work.  A  great  many  guests  have  been  re- 
ceived, and  some  calls  made.  From  September  to  February 
Mrs.  Lingle  taught  a  class  of  women  five  days  in  the  week, 
preparing  them  to  do  Bible  woman's  work,  and  a  class  of 
women  in  the  Fourteenth  ward  for  some  months.  Three 
women,  upon  whom  much  labor  and  many  prayers  have  been 
spent,  have  been  baptized.  Two  of  them  are  doing  earnest 
work  for  the  Mission,  and  the  third  is  letting  her  light  shine 
brightly  while  it  lasts,  for  it  will  soon  be  burned  out. 

MEDICAL.— Dr.  Vanderburgh  writes: 

The  work  in  the  hospital  has  had,  like  all  the  other  branches  of  the 
Station  work,  its  lights  and  shadows  throughout  the  past  year. 

We  have  missed  very  much  the  good  help  and  counsel  of  Dr.  and 
Mrs.  Tooker  in  the  work. 

Mr.  Wang,  so  long  a  teacher  in  the  boys'  school,  was  in  the  hospital 
with  malignant  malaria.  He  was  twice  at  death's  door,  and  is  now  only 
slowly  regaining  his  strength.     A  change  of  climate  was  his  only  hope. 

One  of  our  best  cases  was  a  little  lad  of  twelve  years  who  was 
brought  to  us  during  the  severe  Winter  weather,  a  little  shadow  of 
a  boy.  Hot  water  bags,  a  coal  fire,  enough  to  eat  and  careful  nursing 
transformed  him  into  the  ruddy,  happy  little  chap  I  met  the  other  day 
on  the  street. 

Mr.  Wan,  the  hospital  evangelist,  has  done  very  earnest  and  faithful 
work  among  the  patients.  He  helps  in  the  daily  prayers  in  the  chapel, 
and  teaches  at  the  bedside  of  all  who  are  able  to  listen. 

Some  of  the  patients  are  carried  out  under  the  orange  trees  when 
the  weather  is  warm,  and,  as  a  friend  remarked,  it  makes  a  good 
picture  to  see  the  evangelist  on  a  low  stool  by  the  side  of  the  patients 
teaching  them  of  Him  "who  healed  all  our  diseases."  There  is  one 
applicant  for  baptism,  and  three  catechumens.  Two  medical  students 
have  been  taught  regularly  during  the  year  by  Dr.  Vanderburgh.

HUNAN— HENGCHOW.  79 

HENGCHOW  STATION. 

EVANGELISTIC— Mr.  Gelwicks  writes: 

The  field  consists  of  the  city  main  chapel  and  street  chapel  with  out- 
station  chapels  at  two  market  towns,  each  ten  miles  from  the  city.  A 
Chinese  evangelist  assists  the  missionary  in  this  work.  Three  country 
itinerating  circuits  (situated  southward,  northward  and  westward  from 
the  city)  consist  of  seven  or  eight  principal  preaching  places  to  each 
circuit.  An  evangelist  who  resides  in  his  field  is  in  charge  of  each 
circuit,  of  which  he  makes  a  complete  tour  monthly,  visiting  the  same 
towns  on  the  same  days  of  each  month.  The  missionary  also  visits 
each  of  these  circuits  regularly.  The  goal  that  is  being  striven  for  is 
a  self-sustaining  and  self-propagating  church  in  each  of  these  centres 
of  a  considerable  rural  population.  Chapels  have  thus  far  been  rented 
in  nine  towns.  As  the  work  develops,  these  circuits  will  require  more 
supervision  and  consequently  a  larger  force  of  workers.  The  idea  is 
that  when  the  believers  of  a  place  require  more  pastoral  care  than  the 
circuit  evangelist  is  able  to  give,  they  shall  either  alone  or  grouped  with 
other  places,  provide  in  part  at  least  the  support  of  a  preacher,  and  the 
Mission  will  supply  the  man.  This  will  leave  the  evangelist  free  to 
devote  more  time  to  his  remaining  places  or  to  enter  new  towns. 

The  work  that  is  undertaken  is  the  same  in  essence  for  both  the  city 
and  the  country.  The  work  begins  with  distribution  of  literature  and 
evangelistic  preaching  on  the  streets,  at  inns  or  in  chapels.  When  a  place 
has  at  least  several  persons  who  accept  Christ  as  their  personal  Saviour, 
a  Christian  Endeavor  Society  may  be  organized  for  the  purpose  of 
growth  in  Christian  life  and  experience  in  service.  From  this  the  next 
step  is  to  regular  Sabbath  worship  with  preaching  service,  and  mid- 
week prayer  meeting.  The  Wednesday  evening  service  at  Hengchow 
is  both  a  prayer  and  a  Bible  study  meeting,  at  which  the  Bible  study 
text-books  of  the  Young  Men's  Christian  Association  are  used,  the 
church  members  studying  daily  the  lessons  of  each  week  in  their  homes. 

"The  Good  Seed." — The  missionary  was  trudging  along  a  byroad  in 
the  country,  far  from  the  city,  and  stopped  to  hand  a  tract  to  a  very 
ordinary  looking  farmer  working  in  his  field.     "Oh,  I  know  you,"  said 

the  man,  "I  saw  you  at  ,"  naming  the  Mission  residence  of  three 

years  before.   It  is  safe  to  believe  that  that  seed  fell  into  good  soil. 

The  city  numbers  twenty-one  baptized  members,  of  whom  three  have 
received  baptism  since  the  last  report.  The  membership  at  one  country 
town  is  twelve,  of  whom  six  were  baptized  this  year.  At  only  one 
other  place  has  anyone  received  baptism  and  there  only  one  person. 
The  total  membership  of  the  Station,  therefore,  is  thirty-four,  of  whom 
ten  represent  this  year's  increase.  The  ideal  that  is  steadfastly  kept 
in  view  in  receiving  members  is  a  church  with  which  Christ  shall  be 
well  pleased.  When  a  place  has  ten  baptized  members,  they  are  expected 
to  be  financially  responsible  for  the  local  place  of  worship.  As  the  city 
congregation  continues  to  meet  in  the  Mission's  chapel,  for  which  it 
pays  us  rent,  it  pays  by  subscription  $12  Mexican  annually  for  the  rent 
of  a  country  chapel.  The  surplus  from  the  subscriptions  is  held  in 
reserve  for  the  time,  when  having  twenty-five  church  members,  the 
congregation  shall  also  pay  $5  per  month  towards  their  preacher's 
salary.  In  addition  to  the  subscription,  an  offering  is  taken  at  each 
Sabbath  service,  which  amounts  to  about  $20  a  year.  Of  this  one-half 
is  for  local  church  expenses,  three-tenths  for  Christian  work  or  benev- 
olence in  China  and  two-tenths  for  Foreign  Missions. 

The  report  of  the  Evangelistic  work  would  not  be  complete 
without  mention  being  made  of  the  Evangelist's  Class. 


80  HUNAN— HENGCHOW. 

Mission's  Evangelistic  Class. — The  class  assembled  for  its 
second  year's  work  with  eleven  students  from  the  five  Sta- 
tions of  the  Mission,  as  against  six  from  three  Stations  last 
year.  The  men  studied  faithfully  and  their  work  without 
exception  was  creditable.  Each  student  preached  one  evening 
a  week  at  a  chapel  service,  and  once  during  his  stay  at  North 
Gate  chapel  Sunday  morning  worship.  At  Chinese  New  Year 
the  students  made  a  systematic  visitation,  with  distribution  of 
calendars,  of  the  immense  number  of  boats  that  celebrate  the 
feast  in  Hengchow.  "Endure  hardness  as  good  soldiers  of 
Jesus  Christ"  was  the  thought  that  was  made  the  keynote  of 
the  course.  Upon  separation,  each  student  received  a  prayer 
list  containing  the  name  of  one  fellow-student  for  each  day, 
each  name  occurring  three  times  a  month.  There  has  been  no 
appropriation  by  the  Board  for  this  work,  the  expense  being 
met  from  current  funds. 

EDUCATIONAL. — A  day-school  was  opened  in  September 
at  the  Tao  Heo  Kai  Chapel.  The  attendance  has  been  very 
regular,  averaging  about  thirteen  for  the  year.  Another  day- 
school  was  opened  in  September  at  the  North  Gate  Chapel, 
but  changes  in  its  loeation  have  made  the  attendance  less 
regular.  An  average  of  about  ten  has  been  maintained.  A 
beginning  of  a  boys'  boarding  school  has  been  started  in  a 
repaired  native  house  which  is  to  serve  as  school  building 
until  better  quarters  are  provided. 

WOMAN'S  WORK. — Women's  evangelistic  services  have 
been  held  weekly  at  each  of  the  chapels  and  in  the  girls'  school. 
The  attendance  has  been  very  irregular,  as  the  work  is  just 
beginning,  but  at  least  the  ground  has  been  prepared  for  a 
more  satisfying  work  next  year.  During  the  past  year  we 
have  had  the  joy  of  seeing  our  first  Hengchow  woman  bap- 
tized and  become  a  member  of  the  church. 

The  girls'  day-school  of  last  year  was  made  a  boarding 
school,  and  proved  much  more  satisfactory  in  every  way.  It 
began  with  four  boarders  and  one  day  pupil,  and  closed  with 
ten  boarders  and  three  day  pupils.  It  has  been  a  gratification 
to  see  the  development  in  the  girls  in  even  so  short  a  time. 
Contrary  to  all  advice  that  had  been  received,  older  women 
were  admitted  along  with  the  girls,  yet  there  has  been  no 
reason  to  regret  it. 

MEDICAL. — As  Dr.  Robertson  was  giving  his  time  to 
language  study  no  dispensary  has  been  opened;  but  119  new 
cases  were  treated  in  addition  to  a  great  many  return  cases 
of  which  no  account  has  been  taken.  He  has  also  assisted  Dr. 
Rceke  of  the  London  Mission  in  a  number  of  operations. 


HUNAN— CHENCHOW.  81 

CHENCHOW   STATION. 

The  year  has  brouglit  the  Chenchow  Station  steady  progress 
in  all  departments  of  the  work.  The  hospital  has  been  com- 
pleted and  was  formally  opened  during  the  annual  Bible  Con- 
ference just  after  the  Chinese  New  Year.  The  accessions  to 
the  church  are  a  few  more  than  last  year,  but  more  inquirers 
are  reported.  The  boys'  and  girls'  schools  have  had  more 
pupils  than  ever  before.  On  account  of  lack  of  funds  the 
term  had  to  be  shortened,  still  most  of  the  pupils  finished  the 
year's  work.  The  daily  preaching  at  Chenchow  has  been  well 
attended  and  the  woman's  meetings  continued  to  prosper. 

EVANGELISTIC. — This  Station  is  essentially  an  itinerat- 
ing field,  and  presents  a  large  opportunity  for  pioneering.  In 
six  counties  our  missionaries  are  the  only  representatives  of 
the  Gospel.  In  two  more  counties  adjacent  no  Christian  work 
is  done  at  all.  In  one  county  the  Wesleyans  divide  the  work 
with  us.  From  a  human  point  of  view,  unless  these  eight  and 
a  half  counties  are  evangelized  by  us,  they  will  not  be  evan- 
gelized. A  great  responsibility  is  therefore  ours.  The  field  is 
large,  the  workers  are  few.  Will  we  be  enabled  to  enter  the 
door  of  opportunity? 

Organised  Churches. — Of  the  organized  churches  the  report 
says: 

The  Lin  wu  Church  building,  for  which  a  special  appropriation  was 
given,  has  been  completed,  and  meets  a  long-felt  need.  A  plot  of  land 
was  purchased  adjoining  the  church,  and  rooms  rebuilt  for  the  evan- 
gelist and  his  family,  and  also  for  the  visiting  pastor.  Eight  were 
added  to  the  church,  and  several  interested  inquirers  were  examined. 

Kia  Ho. — Li  Pei  Chi  has  been  engaged  as  evangelist.  Three  persons 
were  received  on  confession  of  faith  and  there  were  several  inquirers. 
Both  Kia  Ho  and  Lin  wu  Churches  have  made  a  beginning  in  self- 
support,  and  while  it  has  been  small  we  hope  that  it  is  the  opening  of 
a  new  era  for  these  churches. 

Chenchozv.—Tv^o  daily  preaching  services  have  been  kept  up,  and  are 
well  attended.  During  the  Fall  and  early  Spring,  when  the  country 
people  were  in  to  pay  taxes,  sometimes  the  chapel  has  been  overflowing. 
Many  have  heard  the  Gospel  for  the  first  time  at  these  meetings.  Tracts 
and  Gospels  are  sold  at  each  service,  and  a  reading  room  with  books 
and  newspapers  has  some  attraction  for  the  scholars  and  teachers  of  the 
city.  The  double  Sabbath  services  have  been  kept  up,  one  at  the  boys' 
school  and  the  other  at  the  street  chapel.  The  great  need  here  is  a 
better  building  for  a  church  so  that  the  Sabbath  services  can  be  held 
where  the  crowds  from  the  street  will  not  interfere  with  the  quiet 
necessary  for  worship.  The  custom  of  taking  up  an  offering  at  the 
morning  services  has  been  instituted  and  the  money  so  given  is  used 
to  provide  the  running  expenses  of  the  chapel. 

The  Third  Annual  Bible  Conference  was  well  attended.  The  special 
feature  was  the  desire  on  the  part  of  those  present  to  make  a  beginning 
in  self-support,  or  rather  in  missionary  work.  At  one  of  the  meetings, 
where  there  was  a  mutual  discussion  of  the  problems  of  the  field,  they

§8nd  a  rriali  there  at  once.  This  was  to  be  only  the  beginning.  Cotti- 
thittees  were  appointed  for  each  of  the  churches  at  Lin  wu  and  Kia  Ho 
to  get  the  whole  body  of  believers  interested  in  this  project,  and  also 
the  members  at  Hsing  Ning  were  to  be  canvassed,  the  aim  being  to 
raise  sufficient  for  the  salary  of  the  evangelist.  The  conference  closed 
with  the  celebration  of  the  Lord's  Supper,  at  which  time  seven  adults 
were  baptized  and  also  foUr  children,  and  one  school-boy  was  received 
into  commuhlotl. 

Out-stations. — At  Lan  San.  Here  there  is  a  growing  church  that 
prornises  to  outstrip  any  of  the  others  in  this  field.  Seven  adults  have 
been  added  and  five  children  baptized. 

Hsing  Ning. — This  church  has  prospered  in  spite  of  obstacles.  Nine 
adults  and  one  infant  have  been  baptized.  The  chapel  keeper  keeps  a 
day-school)  in  Which  the  attendance  has  increased  from  six  to  twelve. 
Work  has  also  been  carried  on  at  Yuin  Hsing  and  Kwei  Yang  Chow. 
This  latter  place  is  a  large  city  only  seventy  li  from  Chenchow.  Sen 
Pao  Chen,  the  hospital  evangelist,  spent  two  months  here  and  sold 
many  tracts  and  portions  of  Scripture  and  reported  some  who  were 
more  or  less  interested  in  the  Gospel.  As  a  result  of  the  Bible  Confer- 
ence, a  man  from  our  Lin  wu  Church,  one  of  the  first  to  be  baptized 
in  Hunan,  was  located  here.  He  is  a  fine  man  for  personal  work  and 
there  is  reason  to  believe  that  our  work  in  Kwei  Yang  Chow  will 
prosper  under  his  leadership. 

ITINERATING.— Three  trips  have  been  made  to  our  southern  field, 
seven  to  Hsing  Ning,  seven  to  Yuin  Hsing  and  six  to  Kwei  Yang  Chow, 
tn  addition  to  these  more  extended  tours,  regular  visits  have  been  made 
to  the  surrounding  market  towns  and  villages.  Thousands  of  tracts  and 
Gospels  have  been  sold  and  much  seed  sown.  The  Lord  of  the  harvest 
will  in  his  own  time  give  the  increase. 

WOMAN'S  WORK.— The  woman's  meeting  formerly  held 
at  the  compound  was  transferred  to  the  street  chapel  at  Chi- 
nese New  Year  time  and  was  marked  by  increased  attendance 
and  interest.  Mrs.  Locke  and  Mrs.  Mitchell  had  charge  of 
'these  meetings  and  were  assisted  by  Mrs.  Wang.  One  woman 
has  been  baptized,  and  there  are  several  more  who  ought  to  be 
ready  for  baptism  soon.  Mrs.  Mitchell  has  made  many  calls, 
and  has  entertained  many  callers  at  her  home,  sometimes  as 
many  as  fifty  in  one  day. 

EDUCATIONAL.— Gir//  School.— The  girls'  school 
opened  November  12  and  was  held  in  the  building  formerly  oc- 
cupied by  Dr.  Lewis  and  the  hospital.  Mrs.  Mitchell  had  charge 
of  the  school  this  year.  Mrs.  Wang  did  most  of  the  teaching 
and  has  proven  herself  to  be  a  good  teacher  and  is  so  clean, 
careful  and  industrious  that  she  has  also  been  a  good  example 
for  the  girls.  Some  lessons  have  been  given  in  sewing.  Some 
'of  the  girls  are  learning  music.  Mrs.  Mitchell  held  prayers 
every  day  and  spent  half  of  Friday  each  week  examining  the 
girls.  Eighteen  girls  have  been  enrolled,  with  an  average  at- 
tendance of  fifteen.  Eleven  were  boarders  and  seven  were 
day-fp'upils.  Two  girls  have  requested  to  be  baptized  and  doubt- 
]c^f,  will  be  rece.iv(£»d  into  the  church  soon.     There  were  other 


HUNAN -CHENCHOW.  83 

applicants  to  be  received  into  the  school,  but  on  account  of  the 
cramped  quarters  and  limited  funds  they  had  to  be  declined. 
For  the  benefit  of  the  day-scholars  the  school  will  be  continued 
through  the  Summer. 

Day-schools  have  been  maintained  at  Kia  Ho  with  ten  pupils ; 
at  Hsing  Ning  with  eleven  boys  and  one  girl,  and  at  Chen- 
chow  with  nine  pupils.  Mr.  Loa,  the  teacher,  is  a  Chinese  B.A. 
This  school  keeps  us  in  touch  with  the  Ma  Teo  si  section  of  the 
city,  where  our  work  in  Chenchow  began. 

Chenchozi'  Boys'  Boarding  School. — In  the  Spring  term  there 
were  twenty  boarders  and  two  day-pupils,  who  finished  the 
year's  work.  All  but  four  of  the  pupils  came  from  Christian 
homes,  and  three  are  Christians  of  the  third  generation.  Dur- 
ing the  year  two  united  with  the  church,  making  seven  pupils 
in  all  that  are  communicant  church  members.  Six  of  the  older 
boys  earned  a  part  of  their  expenses  by  manual  work  leveling 
the  hospital  compound.  Ko  Chong  yao,  who  finished  the 
course,  has  been  sent  to  Nanking  to  finish  his  education.  Dr. 
Garritt  reports  that  he  is  doing  excellent  work  and  we  hope 
that  he  will  soon  be  fitted  to  instruct  his  own  people.  The 
present  home  of  the  school  is  a  remodeled  mud  brick  building 
at  the  back  of  our  residence  compound.  A  little  red  paint  and 
plenty  of  lime  have  made  the  building  look  quite  respectable, 
but  it  is  overcrowded. 

MEDICAL. — Excepting  Edith  Mitchell's  case  of  whooping 
cough  and  Alan  Locke's  case  of  chicken-pox,  the  health  of  the 
members  of  the  Station  has  been  good,  for  which  we  are  all 
v^ery  thankful.  The  medical  work  has  been  somevv'hat  curtailed 
owing  to  the  construction  of  the  hospital,  which  was  begun 
early  in  June,  1907,  and  completed  in  January,  1908.  While 
the  exchange  was  very  low  and  the  appropriation,  $3,000 
gold,  brought  only  about  $5,600  Mex.,  yet  the  hospital  has 
been  built  within  the  appropriation.  During  two  months  of 
the  time  in  which  it  has  been  in  operation  there  was  a  daily 
average  attendance  of  twenty-seven  patients.  Owning  to  lack 
of  suitable  room,  only  twelve  in-patients  were  received  and 
only  four  major  operations  performed.  Although  there  is  a 
decrease  in  the  number  of  patients  during  the  year,  there  was 
an  increase  in  the  field  receipts,  and  with  a  gift  of  $20  from 
Mr.  Scholes,  of  the  Wesleyan  Mission,  they  netted  $110  Mex. 
Fully  half  of  these  receipts  have  been  obtained  from  the  sale 
of  quinine  and  cough  medicine  alone.  Fortunately,  money  for 
the  equipment  is  forthcoming.  With  plenty  of  room  and  better 
facilities  we  hope  to  have  a  larger  report  in  the  future. 

The  following  is  the  account  of  the  opening  of  the  new 
building : 

The  hospital  was  completed  by  Chinese  New  Year.     We  felt  that  in 


84  HUNAN— CHANGTEH. 

opening  the  hospital  appropriate  exercises  would  be  appreciated  by 
the  Chinese  and  give  the  hospital  a  better  standing  in  their  eyes. 
Invitations  were  sent  to  the  Governor  at  Chang  sha  and  the  Tao  T'ai  at 
Hengchow,  to  let  them  know  of  the  work  being  done  here.  Two  days 
before  the  day  set  for  our  opening  exercises,  February  19,  word  came 
that  an  official  with  the  rank  of  Chi  fu  was  sent  to  represent  the 
Governor,  and  the  official  with  the  rank  of  Chih  hsien  was  sent  to 
represent  the  Tao  T'ai  at  the  opening  exercises  of  the  hospital.  Both  the 
Governor  and  Tao  T'ai,  together  with  the  Chenchow  official,  issued 
proclamations  setting  forth  the  object  of  the  hospital,  and  expressing 
their  hearty  approval  and  purpose  to  protect  it.  Early  on  the  day 
of  opening,  the  military  official  sent  guards  and  decorative  flags.  On 
the  preceding  day  the  gentry  and  merchants  had  sent  a  beautiful  banner 
with  appropriate  inscriptions,  together  with  lanterns  and  many  other 
congratulatory  gifts.  It  was  about  10  A.  M.  on  February  19  that  the 
guests  began  to  arrive  and  it  was  a  magnificent  sight  to  behold  the 
officials  and  gentry,  arrayed  in  their  gay  robes,  making  their  way  into 
the  decorated  waiting-rooms,  amidst  a  tremendous  din  of  firecrackers 
on  the  outside,  and  music  within  provided  by  buglers  of  the  military 
camp.  The  exercises,  simple  and  impressive,  were  as  follows:  A  few 
words  of  welcome  by  the  resident  physician  in  charge.  Singing  of 
"All  people  that  on  earth  do  dwell.''  Reading  of  Scripture  and  prayer 
by  our  evangelist,  Mr.  Wang.  Singing,  "The  Great  Physician."  Three 
addresses  of  commendation  by  the  representatives  of  the  Governor  and 
Tao  T'ai  and  by  the  Chenchow  official.  The  chief  addresses  of  the  day 
by  Mr.  Locke  and  Mr.  Han,  telling  the  object  of  the  hospital.  A  few 
words  of  congratulation  by  Mr.  Scholes.  Singing,  "God  save  the 
Emperor,"  and  the  benediction  pronounced  bj'  Mr.  Mitchell. 

After  the  exercises,  photographs  were  taken,  and  the  officials  and 
gentry  together  with  all  the  foreigners,  including  our  twcw guests  from 
Hengchow,  Mr.  Crabb  and  Dr.  Robertson,  sat  down  to  an  excellent 
banquet  prepared  by  the  ladies  of  the  Station.  There  were  twenty-five 
guests.  After  replenishing  the  inner  man,  they  all  proceeded  to  the 
inspection  of  the  hospital,  and  there  were  many  words  of  praise.  The 
representatives  of  the  Governor  and  Tao  T'ai  said  they  would  give 
flourishing  reports  on  their  return.  On  the  three  following  days  feasts 
were  given  to  the  merchants,  teachers  and  many  other  friends  of  the 
hospital.  We  feel  that  the  advertising  of  the  hospital  and  the  reputa- 
tion it  gained  from  such  an  opening  more  than  repaid  the  time  and 
expense  involved.  We  trust  it  may  ever  be  a  valued  institution  in 
alleviating  the  ills  of  all  who  enter  its  walls  and  point  many  to  the 
great  Consoler  of  all  the  needy. 

New  patients,  640;  treatments,  3,600;  in-patients,  12;  major  opera- 
tions, 4;  outcalls,  21;  field  receipts,  $110  Mexican. 

CHANGTEH  STATION. 

EVANGELISTIC  WORK.— Mr.  and  Mrs.  Preston  have 
had  charge  of  this  work.  In  the  prosecution  of  this  department 
of  the  work  emphasis  has  been  laid  upon  the  instructions  given 
in  the  last  commands  of  Christ  to  teach,  preach  and  witness. 
Under  these  three  heads  the  report  is  as  follows : 

I.  TcacJiing. — For  the  men's  Bible  class  we  have  followed  the  Inter- 
national .Sunday-school  lessons.  Since  the  first  of  the  year  there  has 
been  a  helpful  continuity  in  the  studies,  all  the  lessons  being  taken  from 
the  Gospel  of  John.  An  effort  has  been  made  to  divide  the  women  into 
classes,  one  of  which,  composed  of  those  able  to  read  to  some  extent, 


I 


HUNAN— CHANGTEH.  85 

has  studied  the  Catechism.  Another  class  is  composed  of  those  who  are 
regular  attendants  but  not  able  to  read,  while  provision  has  also  been 
made  for  those  whose  presence  is  more  or  less  irregular.  The  plan  has 
not  been  without  success,  and  frequently  the  women  and  girls  constitute 
fully  one-half  of  the  audience.  A  class  of  young  girls,  the  majority 
of  whom  are  students  in  the  day-school,  is  held  at  the  same  time.  One 
of  our  women  is  in  Hankow  studying  to  be  a  Bible  woman.  During 
the  Fall  a  class  of  instruction  in  singing — an  art  in  which  most  of  our 
Chinese  churches  have  room  for  improvement — was  conducted  every 
Saturday  evening. 

Two  members  of  our  church,  one  the  hospital  evangelist  and  the 
other  a  young  student,  attended  the  lay  evangelist  class  at  Hengchow 
during  the  first  three  months  of  the  year  and  returned  with  evidence 
of  substantial  benefit  therefrom.  These  students  are  continuing  a  course 
of  study,  the  younger  taking  Christian  Evidences,  while  the  other,  in 
connection  with  the  evangelist  at  the  Station,  is  studying  the  book  of 
Daniel. 

2.  Preaching. — All  the  regular  services  of  the  church  have  been  kept 
up.  Last  Fall  our  Chinese  church  contributed  to  the  renovation  of  two 
shop  fronts  of  our  new  property  for  a  street  chapel,  which,  in  addition 
to  the  two  nights  at  our  other  chapel,  has  enabled  us  to  have  street- 
chapel  preaching  every  evening  in  the  week,  save  Wednesday,  on  which 
night  is  held  our  weekly  prayer  meeting.  These  services  have  usually 
been  attended  by  crowds,  and  while,  to  use  a  Scriptural  figure,  much 
of  the  soil  seems  to  have  had  wayside,  stony  and  thorny  qualities,  now 
and  again  we  find  that  the  seed  did  lodge  in  prepared  ground.  Since 
our  last  report  to  the  Mission  ten  members  have  been  received  into 
the  church  and  two  infants  baptized.  In  this  connection  it  may  be 
mentioned  that  we  have  lost  two  members  by  death. 

3.  Witnessing. — Nothing  extended  need  be  said  on  this  subject, 
though  we  have  striven  to  make  our  church  one  that  witnessed  to  the 
power  of  the  Gospel.  Four  of  our  members  are  definitely  engaged  in 
Christian  work,  and  we  believe  that  a  much  larger  number  daily  bear 
testimony  bj'-  word  and  conduct  to  the  reality  of  changed  lives. 

EDUCATIONAL  WORK.— 

1.  Girls'  Day-school. — -The  day-school  for  girls,  which  has  been  in 
successful  operation  for  several  years,  has  had  a  very  encouraging 
session.  School  opened  with  an  enrollment  of  fifteen.  The  attendance 
rapidly  increased  until  the  enrollment  reached  thirty-five,  and  as  only 
two  scholars  dropped  out,  the  average  attendance  was  thirty-three. 
There  are  eight  large  girls  who  hope  to  attend  the  Teh  Shan  Girls' 
Boarding  School  next  year.  Twenty-two  foreign  style  desks  have  been 
added  to  the  school  equipment  during  the  year.  The  school-girls  have 
with  encouraging  regularity  attended  the  Sunday  services  at  the  chapel, 
and  have  been  formed  into  a  class  for  Bible  instruction  at  the  close  of 
the  morning  service. 

2.  TeJi  Shan  Boarding  Schools. — Mr.  and  Mrs.  Lovell  have  continued 
in  charge  of  this  work.  For  the  larger  interests  of  our  work,  chiefly 
owing  to  the  difficulty  of  securing  land  to  expand  our  evangelistic  and 
medical  work  in  the  city,  it  was  decided  to  establish  the  girls'  and  boys' 
boarding  schools  at  Teh  Shan,  and  transfer  the  place  purchased  last 
year  to  the  evangelistic  work.  Accordingly  a  piece  of  property  adjoin- 
ing the  boys'  school  ground  was  purchased,  and,  on  arrival  last  Fall, 
the  first  work  of  Mr.  Lovell  was  to  superintend  the  building  of  a  wall 
around  the  entire  compound,  which  was  completed  by  the  first  of  the 
year.  The  plan  comprises  the  entireseparation  of  the  buildings,  a  wall 
and  a  residence  coming  between  the  two   schools.     Work  on  the  two 


86  HUNAN— CHANGTEH. 

main  buildings  is  now  progressing,  though  in  the  case  of  the  boys' 
school  the  funds  on  hand  will  permit  the  erection  of  only  one  wing. 
The  first  spade  of  soil  preparatory  to  commencing  work  on  the  girls' 
school  was  turned  March  21,  and  at  the  time  of  this  Mission  meeting  the 
building  is  up  to  the  second  story,  with  every  prospect  for  having  it 
finished  and  ready  for  opening  in  the  Fall.  During  the  past  year  six 
of  the  girls  from  this  Station  have  attended  school  at  other  places,  and 
there  is  every  reason  to  believe  that  there  will  be  a  creditable  attend- 
ance from  the  opening  day.  Unfortunately  sufficient  funds  for  the  entire 
building  are  lacking,  but  the  one  wing  will  be  erected  during  the  Sum- 
mer with  the  intention  of  also  opening  this  school  in  the  Fall.  During 
the  Winter  and  Spring,  while  building  operations  have  been  going 
on,  Mr.  Lovell  has  preached  to  the  workmen  and,  in  addition,  con- 
ducted a  class  for  teaching  the  Chinese  character  and  the  principles  of 
Christianity  to  those  who  attended.  As  no  other  Mission  is  doing,  or 
planning  to  do,  educational  work  in  our  city,  or  this  immediate  section 
of  Hunan,  the  prospects  before  the  two  schools  as  to  attendance  and 
the  helpful  service  to  the  young  of  our  prefecture  are  bright  with 
promise.  These  two  schools,  when  completed  and  in  successful  opera- 
tion, will  make  real  what  has  long  been  the  desire  and  the  need  of  this 
Station. 

3.  Medical  Work. — Mrs.  Logan  has  acted  as  drug  clerk,  hospital  ac- 
countant and  nurse-in-charge ;  also  in  several  instances  taking  full 
responsibility  in  midwifery  cases  outside  the  hospital.  That  such  serv- 
ices are  appreciated  is  shown  by  the  fact  that  the  husband  of  one  of  the 
patients  made  the  hospital  a  present  of  $30  in  recognition  of  the  service 
rendered.  She  has  nursed  three  cases  of  illness  among  foreigners  dur- 
ing the  year. 

Dr.  Pao  has  returned  from  the  London  Mission  Medical  School  at 
Hankow,  where  he  graduated  last  February  with  a  fine  record,  both 
as  to  scholarship  and  morals.  In  response  to  an  invitation  from  the 
Medical  School,  the  Station  granted  Dr.  Logan  permission  to  give  in- 
struction in  the  school,  and  for  this  purpose  he  spent  the  month  of  April 
in  Hankow  delivering  a  course  of  lectures  to  the  students.  During  his 
absence  Dr.  Pao  did  most  of  the  medical  work,  and  proved  himself 
both  capable  and  trustworthy.  Under  direction  he  has  done  a  number 
of  serious  operations  with  judgment  and  deftness,  and  is  fast  proving 
himself  a  valuable  member  of  the  medical  staff.  Two  young  men  from 
this  Station  are  still  at  the  Medical  School,  and  good  reports  are  given 
of  their  character  and  work.  The  medical  fees  have  been  increased  in 
accordance  with  the  principle  of  making  the  work  as  nearly  self-support- 
ing as  possible.  Several  substantial  subscriptions  from  well-to-do 
Chinese  have  been  received,  and  it  is  hoped  that  more  and  more  the  aid 
of  this  class  may  be  enlisted. 

The  patients  in  the  hospital  have  been  from  many  parts  of  Hunan, 
and  a  number  have  also  come  from  Hupeh,  Kueichow  and  Szechuan. 
Those  from  a  distance  have  almost  invariably  come  by  recommendation 
from  former  patients. 

One  man  came  from  the  western  part  of  Hunan  after  having  spent 
200,000  cash  trying  to  heal  his  jav/  tliat  could  not  possibly  be  cured 
without  the  removal  of  a  large  piece  of  dead  bone.  The  people  have 
shown  an  increased  willingness  to  submit  to  the  necessary  surgical 
operations.  The  fact  that  they  have  to  pay  1,000  cash  for  ether 
seems  to  impress  their  minds  that  they  are  securing  a  privilege  in  the 
anesthetic,  rather  than  that  the  mysterious  drug  is  being  used  to  secure 
physical  control  over  them. 

There  have  been  many  instances  of  gratitude  among  the  people.  A 
poor  woman,  who  said  when  she  came  that  she  had  not  called  a  Chinese 
doctor,    because    she    was    too    poor,   brought   a   present   of   beef   that 


HUNAN— TAO  YUEN.  87 

represented  as  mucli  as  she  could  possibly  save  out  of  a  month's  wages. 
All  efforts  to  make  her  take  back  the  gift  were  unavailing,  and  it  was 
necessary  to  capitulate,  or  seriously  offend  her.  The  beggars  at  the 
poorhouse,  many  of  whom  are  patients  and  regular  attendants  at  the 
church  services,  presented  a  pair  of  scrolls  that  are  appreciated  more 
than  any  other  present  received  since  coming  to  China. 

Mr.  Ts'en,  the  hospital  evangelist,  gives  practically  all  his  time  to 
the  instruction  of  patients.  He  spent  three  months  in  the  theological 
class  at  Hengchow  with  decided  benefit  in  zeal  and  knowledge. 

The  statistics   for  the  year  are  as   follows : 

In-patients    194 

Out-patients,   new    3,878 

Out-patients,  old  3,985 

8,057 

Visits  to  out-patients   184 

Operations    346 

Field  receipts   Mex.    $765.82 


WORK  AT  TAO  YUEN. 

Tao  Yuen,  which  was  formerly  a  separate  Station,  is  now 
carried  on  as  an  out-station  with  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Jenkins  in 
charge.    They  report  as  follows : 

THE  EVANGELISTIC  WORK  has  had  a  steady  growth.  During 
the  year  we  have  had  two  faithful  members  enter  the  church,  a  son  and 
his  mother.  There  has  been  quite  an  addition  to  the  inquirers'  class, 
now  numbering  twenty-four.  We  have  been  disappointed  in  regard  to 
some  of  the  adherents,  as  we  had  expected  more  of  them  to  join  the 
church.  They  have  not  completed  the  required  work  for  membership. 
We  believe  they  should  have  a  knowledge  of  the  faith  that  is  in  them 
before  becoming  members  of  the  church. 

We  have  made  three  itinerating  trips  with  a  view  to  establishing  out- 
stations,  and  have  had  an  evangelist  or  colporteur  selling  books  and 
Bibles  and  preaching  in  the  country  villages  the  greater  part  of  the 
year.  The  results  of  this  work  have  been  gratifying  as  we  have  sold 
during  the  year  over  7,000  tracts,  portions  and  Bibles  and  we  will  soon 
establish  four  out-stations  with  a  prospect  of  others  as  soon  as -we 
have  the  workers  to  see  after  the  work  properly. 

We  have  a  Sunday-school  of  seventy  members.  We  have  our  regular 
Sunday  and  midweek  services  with  street  chapel  every  night.  The 
chapel  attendant  sells  books  and  preaches  to  the  people  during  the  day. 
We  are  planning  soon  to  organize  a  Christian   Endeavor   Society. 

The  Church  members  and  inquirers  are  raising  money  by  Sunday 
contribution  for  the  purchase  of  a  piece  of  land  on  which  to  build  a 
street  chapel.  In  a  few  weeks  they  will  have  paid  in  full  the  total 
cost,  60,000  cash.  It  is  about  30  x  60  feet,  and  located  on  a  business 
street. 

SCHOOLS. — The  Boys'  Day-school  is  not  as  full  as  last  year,  but 
the  character  of  the  boys  and  the  class  of  work  is  much  better.  We 
have  an  enrollment  of  thirty-three,  with  an  average  attendance  of 
twenty-five,  and  have  raised  the  tuition  from  1,200  to  2,000  cash  a 
year.     We  are  glad  to  note  the  faithfulness  of  these  boys  in  attending

the  regular  services,  and  the  knowledge  of  the  Bible  they  display.  At 
3.30  each  day  a  service  is  held  for  the  school. 

The  Day-school  for  Girls  was  opened  the  i6th  of  February  with  an 
enrollment  of  five  pupils.  It  now  has  nine  in  regular  attendance.  An 
elderly  gentleman  who  has  been  teaching  heretofore  in  our  boys'  school 
is  the  teacher.  Mrs.  Jenkins  also  assists  by  teaching  arithmetic  and 
geography  and  examines  the  children  on  their  work. 

The  work  among  the  women  and  children  the  past  year  has  been 
especially  blessed,  although  we  had  no  Bible  woman.  The  attendance 
at  all  the  services  was  good,  and  especially  the  evening  services.  Two 
women  have  given  their  hearts  to  God  and  one  of  them  has  been 
received  into  the  Church.  She  is  now  studying  daily  under  Mrs.  Jen- 
kins' direction,  and  is  making  wonderful  progress  for  a  woman  over 
fifty  years  of  age.

and  Mrs.  Drummond,  Rev.  J.  E.  Williams  and  Mrs.  Williams,  Miss

On  June  5,  1908,  the  Mission  suffered  the  loss  of  one  of  its 
most  useful  and  beloved  members  in  the  death  of  Mrs.  Loben- 
stine, while  on  her  way  from  Hwai  Yuen  to  Ruling.  The  three 
Murdoch  sisters  were  added  at  the  end  of  the  year.  The  ab- 
sence on  furlough  of  many  members  of  the  two  Stations  threw 
unusual  burdens  on  those  who  remained. 

NANKING  STATION. 

EVANGELISTIC. — Churches. — Mr.  Chen,  instructor  in  the 
seminary,  was  elected  elder  of  the  First  Church  in  Han-si-men. 
Mr.  Gray,  pastor  of  the  Grace  Church,  Hu-bu-giai,  writes : 

It  is  difficult  for  a  pastor  to  adapt  his  services  to  small  school-boys, 
well  taught  in  the  doctrine,  and  to  men  and  women  who  come  in  off 
the  streets,  sometimes  bringing  their  rice-bowls  and  chop-sticks,  tea- 
pots, market  baskets,  and  children  with  bells  on  their  toes.  Mrs.  Jones 
says,  "We  never  know  what  to  expect  at  our  church  services,  in  addi- 
tion to  our  boys.  Perhaps  a  company  of  ladies  in  silks  and  jewels,  a 
crowd  of  dirty  children  from  the  street,  groups  of  common,  big-footed 
women  (sometimes  with  their  sewing)  make  up  our  Sunday  congregation. 
.  .  .  My  heart  was  deeply  touched  at  the  last  examination  of  candi- 
dates for  baptism  when  one  of  our  boys  from  a  heathen  home  asked  to 
be  baptized.  Questioned  as  to  why  he  wanted  to  be  a  Christian,  he 
replied  that  he  had  wanted  to  be  one  ever  since  he  studied  about  the 
resurrection  of  Lazarus.  When  questioned  further  as  to  why  that 
affected  him,  he  said  that  no  one  could  get  away  from  his  sins,  that 

89 


90  KIANG-AN— NANKING. 

everyone  would  be  resurrected  and  brought  to  judgment,  and  he  wanted 
his  sins  forgiven." 

There  have  been  four  street  chapels,  some  crowded  in  fair 
weather  and  others  working  with  less  interest.  Mr.  Leaman 
says: 

The  work  of  evangelization  in  the  city  has  not  been  neglected,  but 
our  force  is  inadequate  to  the  needs  of  our  work  in  every  way,  and  it 
has  fallen  far  short  in  the  evangelization  of  our  large  and  important 
city.  All  the  difficulties  known  at  home  in  any  city  are  here,  and  in 
addition  there  is  no  help  from  a  Christian  civilization  ruling  in  it. 
In  all  the  sham  of  the  new  civilization  springing  up  heathen  customs 
and  life  predominate  in  all  classes,  from  the  Governor-General  down  to 
the  lowest  beggar. 

COUNTRY  WORK.— 

Tung-dzing. — At  the  last  Communion  there  were  two  adults  and  two 
infants  baptized.  One  of  the  elders  and  his  wife  brought  forward  a  little 
heathen  girl  of  about  eleven  who  was  to  be  the  wife  of  their  eldest 
son,  and  since  it  was  thought  best  not  to  baptize  her,  the  to  be  parents- 
in-law  took  vows  upon  themselves  to  bring  her  up  in  the  nurture  and 
admonition  of  the  Lord  and  to  use  every  effort  to  bring  her  to  Christ. 
Thus  before  the  church  she  was  dedicated  to  the  Lord. 

Lih-Shui. — This  has  been  the  most  encouraging  of  all  the  out-sta- 
tions this  year.  At  the  Autumn  session  there  were  over  lOO  inquirers, 
thirty-six  of  whom  showed  a  hopeful  knowledge  of  "the  doctrine,"  and 
ten  were  baptized.  These  were  men,  mostly  the  heads  of  families. 
Already  they  have  some  money  ready  for  buying  land  for  a  church. 
They  pay  the  rent  for  their  chapel  themselves.  The  evangelist  and 
school  teacher  was  elected  elder,  and  two  elderly  men  deacons. 

One  inquirer  was  so  persecuted  by  his  father  and  elder  brother  that 
they  put  a  rope  around  his  neck  and  nearly  choked  him  to  death,  and 
then  threatened  to  bury  him  alive ;  but  he  remained  true,  and  the  officers 
of  the  church  effected  a  settlement  and  reconciliation. 

Lih-Yang. — In  January  Mr.  Tong  succeeded  in  renting  a  former 
teashop  in  a  good  location  for  a  drug  store  and  dispensary  with  a  chapel  at 
the  back.  .  .  .  The  people  have  determined  that  the  Gospel  should  not 
be  preached  in  their  city,  and  have  threatened  the  owner  of  the  house 
for  renting  it  to  foreigners.  .  .  .  Mr.  Gray  says  that  this  city  of 
some  30,000  people  is  the  most  openly  wicked  and  idolatrous  of  any  he 
has  seen  in  China.  As  this  report  is  being  written  the  workers  in  Lih- 
Yang  are  under  constant  threats  from  the  gentry. 

The  work  has  been  carried  on  also  in  five  or  six  other  points 
in  the  country. 

WOMAN'S  WORK.— Miss  Hyde  writes: 

One  week  was  spent  in  visiting  the  district  along  the  canal,  which 
until  the  famine  time  had  been  difficult  of  access,  owing  to  the 
unfriendliness  of  the  people.  Miss  Dresser  had  been  cordially  received 
at  that  time,  and  they  were  none  the  less  willing  to  hear  on  this  occa- 
sion. In  the  Spring  an  attempt  was  made  to  penetrate  farther  up  the 
canal,  in  order  to  connect  with  the  other  Stations  of  our  district. 
On  these  two  visits  we  reached  over  fifty  villages,  and  preached  the 
Gospel  several  hundred  times.  .  .  .  We  were  the  first  foreign  women 
to  visit  Du-han,  and  we  arrived  just  before  sunset,  when  the  people 


KIANG-AN— NANKING.  91 

vvere  about  to  leave  their  work  on  the  threshing  field.  It  was  a  busy 
time,  but  quite  a  crowd  of  women  came  to  offer  welcome  and  to 
listen  eagerly  while  Miss  Dresser  talked  "doctrine,"  and  later  to  learn 
the  little  prayer  for  forgiveness,  salvation  and  cleansing,  which  is 
the  first  real  prayer  they  know.  After  an  hour  or  two  they  were 
persuaded  to  leave  until  we  could  prepare  and  eat  supper,  and  then 
they  crowded  back  for  evening  service  until  the  little  mud  chapel  was 
quite  full  of  men  and  women  listening  to  the  old,  old  story.  They 
left  with  reluctance  at  bedtime,  after  having  kindly  provided  piles  of 
fresh  straw  for  us  to  sleep  on.  .  .  .  The  Woman's  School,  under  Miss 
Dresser's  care,  has  been  a  joy  and  blessing  to  them,  and  to  each  one 
who  has  had  even  the  smallest  share  in  helping  in  it.  Averaging  about 
a  dozen — part  of  the  term  more — they  worked  hard  and  faithfully.  All 
are  Christians,  though  two  or  three  are  still  enrolled  as  inquirers, 
but  they  will  in  all  likelihood  soon  be  received  as  members. 

Street  Visiting. — 

Mrs.  Jones,  accompanied  by  a  Bible  woman  and  sometimes  with  only 
a  house  servant,  has  spent  an  hour  and  a  half  or  two  hours  each  Satur- 
day morning  visiting  in  the  homes  of  her  Hu-bu-giai  neighbors,  invit- 
ing them  to  the  Sunday  services,  and  teaching  them  of  the  one  true 
God.  She  says,  "From  the  house  of  reeds  to  the  home  of  the  wealthy, 
one  can  but  feel  that  there  is  very  great  need  for  the  true  religion.  In  the 
damp,  sunless,  airless  abodes  how  do  they  ever  exist?  At  first  all 
seemed  alike  to  me,  but  gradually  each  house  and  occupant  has  taken 
on  its  own  individualicy,  and,  instead  of  thinking  of  the  mass,  I  find 
myself  wondering  how  that  old  lady  is,  or  if  that  sick  baby  has 
recovered.  With  two  exceptions  all  have  been  most  friendly.  The 
best  in  the  house  was  usually  offered  us,  not  excepting  their  pipes. 
Friendships  have  been  formed,  and  when  Mr.  Williams  returns  I 
hope  for  more  time  for  this  needy  neighborhood.  One  day  I  had  gone 
but  a  few  yards  beyond  our  compound  when,  stopping  to  talk  to  some 
neighbors,  a  company  soon  gathered,  on  the  outer  edge  of  which  were 
two  men  of  the  teacher  class.  My  broken  Chinese  sentences  quite 
embarrassed  me  in  their  presence,  and  I  also  feared  the  people  might 
not  be  understanding  what  I  was  so  anxious  for  them  to  hear.  So  I 
handed  one  of  the  teachers  a  tract  and  invited  him  to  read  it  aloud. 
Can  you  imagine  a  heathen  teacher,  standing  in  the  midst  of  such  a 
street  company,  reading  to  them  the  truths  of  the  Gospel !  And  be- 
sides both  he  and  his  friend  came  to  church  services  the  next  day." 

EDUCATIONAL  WORK.— GtW^'  Boarding  School— Miss 
Leaman  writes : 

The  opening  of  school  last  year  was  not  easy,  as  word  came  to  us 
about  three  weeks  before  that  both  of  our  men  teachers  had  been 
gambling.  After  inquiring  into  the  matter  we  felt  very  strongly  that 
it  was  far  better  to  have  all  the  teaching  done  by  the  matron,  the 
older  girls  and  ourselves,  rather  than  run  any  risk  with  teachers  of 
whom  we  were  not  sure.  Sending  them  off  was  hard,  not  simply  be- 
cause of  the  burden  of  work  they  left,  but  one  had  been  in  the  school 
twelve  years,  and  the  other  had  been  in  our  boys'  school  from  a  little 
boy.     .     .     . 

At  the  opening  of  school,  the  girl  that  came  back  to  us  to  teach, 
leaving  a  ten-dollar  a  month  position  for  the  one  v/ith  us  at  five, 
came  with  a  gift  of  ten  dollars.  She  had  received  so  much  from  the 
school,  she  said,  that  she  wanted  to  give  a  little  as  a  token  of  her 
gratitude.     .     .     . 


92  KIANG-AN— NANKING. 

The  opportunities  for  Christian  work  are  daily  multiplying,  and  the 
openings  are  far  beyond  our  strength,  so  we  rejoice  the  more  in  every 
advance  the  girls  make  in  preparation  for  definite  Christian  service. 
One  day  while  on  the  way  to  a  meeting  we  stopped  to  talk  to  a  woman 
sitting  at  her  door.  The  other  women  of  the  house  gathered,  and  all 
listened  attentively.  When  we  left  they  said  in  tones  full  of  longing 
and  reproach.    "Why  don't  you  come  often?" 

This  desire  is  not  confined  to  the  poor,  as  many  instances  this  past 
year  have  proved.  When  Miss  Davis  left  the  Government  school  in 
which  she  taught  for  a  time,  two  of  the  girls,  influenced  by  her  teach- 
ings, left  and  came  to  us,  where  Miss  Davis  kindly  continued  her 
classes  with  them.  We  had  long  talks  with  each  of  these  girls,  both 
from  wealthy  families.  Each  said  that  she  believed  the  Gospel,  and 
that  her  family  not  only  did  not  oppose  it,  but  were  also  willing  to 
listen  to   it. 

There  are  sixty  boarders  in  the  school,  and  twelve  girls  who 
have  no  home  but  the  school. 

The  Union  Normal  School  for  girls  in  Nanking  is  going  to  prove 
a  great  blessing.  There  are  at  present  no  teachers  set  apart  for  this 
work;  there  is  no  building,  and  there  is  no  money.  But  classes  have 
been  in  session  since  the  New  Year.  One  from  each  Mission  teaches 
a  subject.  This  is  a  great  saving  of  strength  in  preparation  for 
classes.  In  fact,  it  would  be  impossible  for  one  Mission,  without  in- 
creased force,  to  carry  on  of  itself  the  different  classes  planned  for. 

Kindergarten. — Fifty  little  children  are  in  the  kindergarten 
and  come  morning  and  afternoon.     Mrs.  Gray  writes: 

It  will  be  many  a  day  before  the  happy  faces  in  the  Kindergarten 
at  the  end  of  the  school  year,  when  Miss  Leaman  gave  the  children  a 
little  spread,  will  be  forgotten.  She  can  still  see  the  contented  smiles 
on  their  chu])by  faces  as  they  sat  in  their  little  chairs  around  their  low 
tables,  with  hands  clasped  before  them  and  eyes  shut  tight  while  they 
repeated  their  little  blessing,  before  eating  what  seemed  to  their  eyes 
a  feast;  and  she  can  but  contrast  their  joy  with  the  rudeness  of  a  little 
boys'  club  in  a  New  England  Settlement  house,  who  when  they  scanned 
a  spread  set  for  them  blurted  out,  "Is  this  all  we're  going  to  have?" 

Union  Christian  College. — This  college  is  maintained  jointly 
by  the  Disciples  and  the  Presbyterians.  It  is  the  hope  soon  to 
merge  it  in  the  Union  University,  which  the  Methodists  will 
join. 

The  attendance  has  been  larger.  The  enrollment  reached  more  than 
loo  at  both  places,  and  the  average  attendance  was  more  than 
ninety.  At  the  beginning  of  last  term  we  had  more  than  loo 
applicants  for  admission  to  the  school.  As  we  did  not  have  the  room 
we  could  not  accept  more  than  twenty-five  of  these.  Fortunately  this 
increased  demand  makes  it  easy  for  us  to  be  more  particular  in  choos- 
ing the  class  of  students  we  wish  to  receive.  .  .  . 

This  year  closes  the  second  year  of  the  "Union"  work,  and  we 
are  more  than  pleased  with  the  spirit  of  the  school.  There  has  not 
been  a  ripple  on  the  surface  even,  indicating  any  friction  of  any  kind, 
but  on  the  contrary  the  fellowship  has  been  most  enjovable  and  profit- 
able. We  believe  that  the  experimental  stage  of  the  enterprise  may  be 
considered  passed  and  we  should  plan  for  larger  things. 


KIANG-AN— HWAI  YUEN.  93 

During  the  year  the  religious  interest  in  the  scliool  has  been  healthy 
and  growing.  There  have  been  a  number  of  applicants  for  admission 
to  the  Church.  .  .  .  The  Christian  clement  in  the  school  is  largely 
in  the  ascendancy. 

Union  Theological  Seminary. — 

Thirty-seven  students  were  enrolled — eighteen  from  the  Northern 
Presbyterian  Missions  and  eighteen  from  the  Southern  Missions,  and 
one  from  the  Advent  Mission,  Nanking.  There  were  fourteen  in  the 
seminary  proper  and  twenty-three  in  the  Bible  training  school. 

The  attendance  upon  lectures  has  been  remarkable  for  its  regularity. 
The  young  men  have  taken  their  work  very  seriously.  Being  strangers 
in  Nanking,  they  have  had  next  to  nothing  to  distract  their  attention  from 
their  work,  and  have  not  been  absent  from  lectures  as  much  as  one 
per  cent.     The  result  was  satisfactory  progress  in  their  studies. 

Early  in  the  year  the  students  arranged  a  plan  of  work  among 
themselves,  by  which  they  were  assigned  in  groups  of  two  or  more 
to  places  in  the  city  under  the  care  of  the  Northern  Presbyterian  Mis- 
sion. This  work  was  done  on  the  Sabbath,  and  did  not  involve  absence 
from  the  city  on  Saturday  and  Monday.  A  special  feature  of  the 
evangelistic  work  consisted  in  the  students  going  in  groups  in  rotation 
to  preach  on  Sabbath  afternoons  at  the  Fu-tong  Chapel.  This  is  on  a 
busy,  crowded,  noisy  street.     The  audiences  were  full. 

The  majority  of  the  students  do  not  speak  the  Mandarin  dialect,  and 
they,  as  a  rule,  show  no  disposition  to  learn  it.  Of  those  who  do 
speak  some  forms  of  Mandarin,  several  have  such  marked  local  pecu- 
liarities of  speech  that  they  are  almost  as  far  from  standard  Mandarin 
as  the  Ningpo  and  Soochow  men.  Hopes  are  entertained  of  having 
Mandarin  taught  properly  in  the  seminary  to  the  students  (and  pro- 
fessors). 

HWAI  YUEN  STATION. 

During  the  absence  of  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Cochran  and  the  Rev. 
and  Mrs.  James  Cochran  on  furlough,  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Tooker 
came  from  the  Hunan  Mission  to  keep  the  hospital  open,  and 
Mr.  Thomas  Carter,  of  Montclair,  N.  J.,  who  was  visiting  the 
Station,  gave  what  assistance  he  could.  The  Station  now  has 
an  excellent  staff  of  six  men,  graduates  of  the  Shantung  Union 
College,  besides  two  Chinese  doctors,  a  dispenser,  son  of  a 
Nanking  Bible  woman,  and  Miss  Ren,  teacher  in  the  Girls' 
School,  who  is  the  only  Chinese  woman  worker. 

EVANGELISTIC— During  the  year  the  Station  organized 
what  is  believed  to  be  the  first  Christian  Church  in  North 
An-Hwei  with  a  membership  of  over  sixty. 

Our  church  services  have  been  well  attended.  The  morning  service 
is  planned  primarily  for  Christians,  and  the  effort  is  to  make  it  a 
time  for  worship  and  for  religious  instruction.  We  have  changed 
somewhat  our  order  of  service,  introducing  a  larger  choice  of  chants, 
and  we  are  putting  a  little  leaflet  containing  the  service  into  the  hands 
of  all.    ... 

Two  years'  trial  of  an  order  of  service  in  which  more  part  is  taken 
by  the  congregation  convinces  us  of  the  desirability  of  beautifying  our 


U  KIANG-AN— HWAI  YUEN. 

service,  and  of  emphasizing  the  element  of  worship,  as  well  as  that 
of  instruction  and  exhortation.  The  prayer  life  of  the  average 
Christian  greatly  needs  enriching,  and  we  know  of  no  better  way  of 
helping  them  to  get  at  the  riches  of  devotional  thought  in  the  Bible 
than  by  giving  the  Chinese  Church  some  of  the  best  prayers  of  the 
Church  of  the  West,  such  as  are  found  in  our  Prayer  Book,  and  by 
the  responsive  reading  of  the  Psalms  at  our  church  services.     .     .     . 

Baptisms. — The  number  baptized  this  year  was  sixteen  adults  and 
one  infant.  In  addition  to  the  above,  two  families  who  were  unwilling 
to  have  their  children  baptized  in  infancy,  because  of  those  they  know 
when  they  came  to  mature  years  had  not  been  Christians,  although 
given  all  the  advantages  of  a  Christian  education,  have  brought  their 
children  to  us  and  presented  them  publicly  to  the  Lord,  taking  practi- 
cally the  same  vows  that  the  parents  do  who  bring  their  children  to 
be  baptized.  They  preferred  that  their  children  should  be  baptized 
upon  their  own  confession  of  sin  and  faith  in  the  Lord  Jesus  Christ, 
and  while  we  explained  to  them  the  significance  of  baptism,  we  did  not 
feel  like  pressing  the  point  too  much,  allowing  them  liberty  in  the 
matter.     .     .     . 

Our  inquirer's  pledge,  which  we  allow  to  be  taken  only  after  a 
personal  examination  of  each  candidate,  and  which  marks  them  defi- 
nitely as  under  our  care,  is  a  real  help ;  as  is  also  the  rule  that  no  one 
shall,  unless  in  very  exceptional  circumstances,  be  baptized  for  at  least 
six  months  after  he  has  taken  the  pledge. 

The  Sunday-school  has  used  the  Blakeslee  Course  with  great 
success.  The  plan  of  the  Station  is  to  develop  an  institutional 
church  in  Hwai  Yuen  with  work  for  men,  a  loan  library, 
stereopticon  lectures,  mothers'  meetings,  sewing  clubs,  etc.,  etc. 

COUNTRY  WORK.— 

There  are  at  present  regular  Sunday  services  at  three  points:  (i) 
At  Meng  Chen,  a  magistracy  150  li  northwest  of  us  on  the  Go  River. 
(2)  At  I  Tswen  Gih,  a  market  town  on  the  same  river  forty  li  nearer 
Hwai  Yuen.  Though  the  number  of  Christians  is  small  we  have  a 
good  start  there;  it  is  the  home  of  Mr.  Djang.  (3)  At  Geng  Gia 
Tswen.  This  is  our  strongest  out-station;  it  is  sixty  li  southwest  of 
Hwai  Yuen.  There  are -in  addition  one  or  two  Sunday  services  each 
month  at  Feng  Yang  Fu,  Miao  Shan  Pu,  not  far  from  the  latter  and 
at  Yang  Gia  Djwang  and  at  Tsai  Gia  Djwang.     .     .     . 

It  is  our  hope  that  we  can  during  the  next  few  years  man  the 
unoccupied  cities  about  us,  Feng  Yeng  and  Ling  Hwai  Gwan,  Si  Djou, 
Nan  Hsu  Djou,  Bo  Djou,  Goyang  and  Shou  Djou,  similarly  to  Meng 
Chen.  In  each  we  desire  to  place  at  least  two,  and  preferably  three  well- 
equipped  men,  college  men  if  we  can  get  them.  One  of  these  should  be 
an  evangelist  free  for  country  work,  and  in  addition  to  him  there 
should  be  a  school  teacher  or  a  physician,  or  both.  We  believe  that 
it  will  be  wiser  not  to  send  one  man  alone  to  a  Station  of  this  kind, 
and  feel  that  the  work  v/ill  be  .stronger  and  grow  more  rapidly  and 
wholesomely  by  manning  well  a  small  number  of  these  cities,  than  by 
manning  imperfectly  double  the  number.  As  the  positions  are  open  to 
great  temptations,  in  view  of  the  political  relationships  of  the  rnission- 
aries,  we  prefer  to  try  for  well-trained  men  only  for  these  positions — 
that  is,  men  trained  by  years  of  Christian  teaching  who  give  proof  of 
being  men  of  good  judgment  and  of  earnest  spirit.  The  men  should 
have  a  year  at  least  in  Hwai  Yuen,  under  our  close  daily  supervision, 
before  being  sent  out  at  a  distance  for  work  among  other  Christians. 


KIANG-AN— HWAI  YUEN.  95 

.    .     .It  should  be  noted  that  these  are  all  prefectural  or  magistracy 
cities  in  the  centres  of  large  country  populations. 

Two  inquirers'  classes  for  men  of  about  fifty  in  each  class 
and  a  class  for  women  with  a  similar  attendance  have  been 
held.  Three  classes  for  teaching  the  Romanized  have  been 
held,  two  for  the  men  and  one  for  the  women,  and  they  proved 
conclusive  to  Mr.  Lobenstine,  as  he  writes : 

The  average  young  farmer  can,  with  a  little  encouragement  and 
pains,  learn  in  less  than  three  months  to  read  in  the  Romanized  with 
some  fluency  and  with  understanding,  and  raises  the  question  whether 
we  should  not  require  all  but  the  very  aged  to  read  the  Gospels,  or  a 
part  of  them,  before  admission  to  the  Church.     .     .     . 

Itinerations  for  both  foreigners  and  Chinese  this  year  have  been 
confined  to  our  out-stations  and  to  the  country  lying  near  them.  But 
one  or  two  long  trips  have  been  made  into  the  region  lying  north  and 
east  of  us.  The  field  in  which  we  already  have  centres  have,  however, 
been  much  more  thoroughly  worked  than  before,  and  by  a  plan  now 
developed  a  part  of  the  time  of  each  of  the  evangelists,  Swen,  Li  and 
Dju,  will  be  spent  each  month  in  working  a  limited  country  field 
assigned  them  centering  about  one  of  the  out-stations,  while  for  the 
remainder  they  are  free  for  itinerations  into  fields  where  as  yet  we 
have  no  foothold,  and  for  city  work  in  connection  with  the  church  and 
hospital.  We  are  trying  to  get  the  men  to  work  for  individuals  rather 
than  for  crowds,  whenever  they  go  to  a  new  town  or  village;  and 
hope  soon  to  be  able  to  make  far  more  use  of  those  who  have  been 
in-patients  in  the  hospital  than  we  have  in  the  past. 

Some  of  the  most  interesting  experiences  of  the  year  have  been 
the  meetings  held  in  connection  with  the  taking  down  of  the  family 
idols  in  the  homes  of  inquirers.  Every  one  who  takes  the  inquirer's 
pledge  binds  himself  to  remove  the  family  idols,  provided  he  is  head 
of  the  family ;  but  the  old  fear  of  the  idol  is  so  great  that  it  requires 
the  visit  of  some  strong  Christian  to  give  them  the  necessary  courage. 

Mr.  Swen  has  helped  not  a  few  families  perform  the  dangerous  task 
this  past  year.  The  entire  family  in  each  case  gathered  together  for 
a  special  service.  Hymns  were  sung,  the  family  exhorted  to  obey  the 
Supreme  God  and  to  fear  none  but  Him,  and  prayer  was  offered. 
Special  virtue  was  in  each  case  felt  to  attach  to  the  prayers,  and  only 
after  it  was  offered  was  the  necessary  courage  given.  The  idols,  mostly 
of  paper,  were  then  torn  down  from  the  walls  and  doors  and  burned 
before  the  eyes  of  all. 

We  have  come  across  three  cases  of  what  the  Chinese  consider  to  be 
demon  possession  this  year.  Quiet  talk  and  prayer  has  in  each  case 
freed  the  diseased  imagination  of  the  possession,  and  of  the  fear  thereof, 
and  two  have  become  inquirers.  The  belief  is  growing  that  the  demons 
have  no  power  over  those  who  belong  to  Jesus  Christ.  Many,  how- 
ever, if  not  most  of  the  Christians  firmly  believe  that  evil  spirits  exist, 
and  that  they  enter  into  men  now  as  really  as  in  former  years,  and 
render  them  impotent  to  control  their  lives.  The  suicide  at  the  Chinese 
New  Year  of  the  gateman  of  the  Boys'  School  was  a  case  in  point. 
He  was  found  kneeling  in  front  of  the  range  in  the  kitchen,  a  rope 
about  his  neck,  in  the  exact  spot  where  two  others  have  in  recent 
years  similarly  perishd.  The  belief  was  general  that  he  could  not  do 
otherwise.  The  spirit  took  possession  of  him  and  demanded  his  death, 
and  he  had  to  obey. 

EDUCATIONAL  WORK.— Boy/  Boarding  School— Mr. 
Morris,  in  Mr.  Cochran's  absence,  has  had  charge  of  the  school, 


96  KIANG-AN— HWAI  YUEN. 

with  the  assistance  of  most  competent  Chinese  men.    The  total 
enrohment  of  boys  is  fifty-five. 

The  boys  have  felt  the  spirit  of  restlessness  and  insubordination 
common  to  all  the  school-boys  of  China  to-day,  and  there  was  one 
occasion  where  severe  discipline  had  to  be  administered.  The  thorough 
way,  however,  in  which  the  matter  was  dealt  with  by  Mr.  Morris  and 
the  Chinese  teachers  taught  them  a  wholesome  lesson,  and  has  won 
the  respect  and  confidence  of  the  boys.  Ten  of  them  were  baptized 
at  the  fall  Communion  service.  The  boys  all  greatly  admire  their 
teachers,  and  daily  contact  with  men  of  so  strong  a  type  of  Christianity 
is   deeply  influencing  their  lives. 

The  boys  have  themselves  started  a  Y.  M.  C.  A.  which  meets  every 
Sunday  after  the  morning  service.  It  has  now  been  in  existence  for  about 
two  years.  The  boys  enjoy  it  greatly,  and  some  of  them  are  developing 
into  right  good  speakers.  It  is  always  a  problem  how  to  keep  the  boys 
occupied  on  Sundays,  and  the  same  applies  to  other  Christians  as  well. 
They  read  little,  owing  chiefly  to  the  lack  of  interesting  books,  and  to 
the  fact  that  they  have  never  learned  to  read  for  pleasure. 

Girls'  Boarding  School. — 

The  total  enrollment  of  the  Girls'  School  for  the  year  has  been 
thirty,  of  which  number  twelve  were  boarders.  This  is  a  decided  gain  over 
last  year.  .  .  .  The  Chinese  teacher,  Miss  Ren,  a  former  pupil  of  the 
Nanking  Girls'  School,  has  done  excellent  work  both  in  the  classroom 
and  out  of  it.  .  .  .  The  task  of  getting  satisfactory  teachers  for  girls' 
schools  is  far  more  difficult  than  is  the  case  in  schools  for  boys,  and 
we  at  Hwai  Yuen  find  the  task  doubly  hard,  as  we  are  far  away  from 
the  large  centres  and  travel  is  difficult. 

Mothers'  Meetings. — 

In  the  past  the  meetings  used  to  be  greatly  interrupted  by  the  children 
which  the  mothers  always  had  to  bring  with  them,  as  they  had  no  one 
to  leave  them  with  at  home.  So  to  help  on  the  meetings  a  plan  was 
started  of  having  a  play  hour  with  the  children  during  the  time  of  the 
meeting.  The  mothers  were  skeptical  of  its  utility  and  said  their 
children  would  not  leave  them,  but  a  sand-box  and  a  little  tact  did 
wonders,  and  gave  the  women  the  best  services  they  have  ever  had. 

HOSPITAL.— The  records  of  the  hospital  show  that  the 
number  of  dispensary  patients  has  increased,  also  that  they 
come  from  a  territory  represented  by  ninety-eight  districts  or 
other  important  cities  in  this  and  the  bordering  provinces, 
many  from  a  distance  of  several  hundred  li ;  and  this  wide 
range  of  country  bears  abundant  testimony  to  the  good  which 
the  hospital  has  done  in  past  years,  and  to  the  confidence  which 
the  people  have  in  Dr.  Cochran's  skill.  The  increasing  con- 
fidence in  the  foreigner  and  readiness,  even  eagerness,  to  be 
operated  upon  are  encouraging  signs. 

The  increase  in  the  number  of  outcalls,  in  which  are  not  included 
visits  made  on  us  in  Hwai  Yuen,  is  equally  encouraging.  More  than 
half  of  them  were  made  by  Mrs.  Tooker,  and  many  more  came  to  her 
home  to  consult  her  professionally,  several  submitting  to  operation, 
though  the  hospital  has  very  poor  accommodations  for  women.    .    .    . 


KIANG-AN— STATISTICS.  97 

During  the  year  2,439  new  patients  have  been  treated  in  the  dispen- 
sary and  5,659  who  came  for  further  treatment,  making  a  total  of 
8,098  treatments.  Of  in-patients  there  were  104,  most  of  them  operative 
cases,  and  49  outcalls.  The  total  number  of  operations  under  an 
anaesthetic  was  272,  and  without  anaesthesia  42,  giving  a  total  of  314. 

ROMAN  CATHOLICS.— 

During  the  year  a  Roman  Catholic  priest,  Father  Rouxel,  has  come 
to  Hwai  Yuen  to  live.  He  is  a  French  Jesuit,  and  has  charge  of  a  large 
district  between  the  Go  and  the  Hwai  Rivers.  Before  we  entered 
Hwai  Yuen  the  Catholics  had  acquired  a  piece  of  property  there,  as 
indemnity  for  the  indignities  done  to  a  Father  who  had  tried  to  get 
a  foothold  in  Hwai  Yuen  and  had  been  thrown  out,  barely  escaping 
with  his  life.  That  was  before  Boxer  year.  Since  then  they  have  not 
felt  it  wise  to  occupy  Hwai  Yuen  until  this  year,  when,  as  Father 
Rouxel  said,  they  "found  the  way  prepared  for  them,  and  the  spirit 
of  the  people  greatly  changed  by  our  good  work." 

All  the  Catholic  work  in  Kiang  Su  and  An-Hwei  provinces  is 
carried  on  by  the  Jesuit  order,  under  the  direction  of  a  Bishop  resident 
in  Shanghai,  and  in  charge  of  the  great  Catholic  settlement  of  Sikawei. 
Most  of  the  priests  are  French,  but  there  are  a  few  Italian  and  English, 
and  even  American.  Both  Father  Rouxel  and  the  Father  at  Feng 
Ysng  Fu  have  been  very  friendly.  We  have  exchanged  calls  several 
times,  and  have  been  able  to  be  of  some  mutual  service  to  one  another. 
During  Mrs.  Lobenstine's  illness  they  were  most  kind  in  sending  some 
things  for  her  they  felt  might  be  of  use,  and  in  the  deep  sympathy  they 
showed  in  her  suffering.  We  shall  do  our  best  to  work  together  as 
those  under  the  standards  of  one  great  Captain,  and  to  keep  peace  be- 
tween those  who  follow  us  and  those  who  follow  with  them.  That 
this  will  not  be  easy,  every  one  familiar  with  the  work  in  China  knows  ; 
but  we  shall  do  our  best  to  avoid  friction,  and  if  causes  of  friction  do 
arise  to  settle  them  out  of  court  by  correspondence  or  conference  with 
the  Fathers  themselves. 

Thanks  to  the  continued  generous  support  of  the  Central 
Presbyterian  Church  of  New  York  City,  the  Station  has  been 
able  greatly  to  improve  its  property  facilities,  and  through  the 
generous  contribution  of  Air.  William  E.  Lobenstine  Hope 
Hospital  has  been  built  for  the  relief  of  the  sufifering.

NORTH  CHINA  MISSION. 

Peking  being  the  political  centre  of  the  Empire,  the  notable 
occurrences  of  the  past  year  have  profoundly  affected  it.  The 
deaths  of  both  the  Emperor  and  Empress  Dowager,  the  acces- 
sion of  the  little  child  who  became  the  new  Emperor,  the  es- 
tablishment of  the  Regency  and  the  fall  of  Yuan  Shih  Kai 
were  events  of  the  first  magnitude.  Many  disquieting  rumors 
regarding  trouble  were  in  circulation,  but  none  of  them  ma- 
terialized, and  the  great  transition  was  smoothly  made.  The 
new  Government  appears  to  be  firmly  established  and  peace 
continues. 

The  missionaries  steadily  prosecuted  their  work  throughout 
the  year,  undismayed  by  rumors,  and  finding  their  work  not 
at  all  interfered  with  except,  of  course,  in  so  far  as  the  excite- 
ment of  the  people  sometimes  preoccupied  attention. 

The  death  of  Mrs.  John  Wherry,  August  25,  brought  sor- 
row to  all  hearts.  She  had  been  in  America  for  years  on  ac- 
count of  serious  and  prolonged  ill  health  which  forbade  further 
residence  on  the  field.  She  had  become  so  frail  that  death  was 
a  release  to  her.  Deep  sympathy  is  felt  for  the  stricken  hus- 
band, whose  sorrow  is  intensified  by  the  fact  that  he  was  in 
Peking  when  his  wife  was  taken  from  him  in  America.

PEKING  STATION. 

THE  CHURCH. — The  attendance  at  the  Sunday  services 
has  been  good,  but  the  mid-week  prayer  meeting  and  Sunday- 
school  have  not  been  so  well  attended.  The  meetings  in 
April,  conducted  by  Mr.  Goforth,  of  the  Canadian  Presbyterian 
Mission  in  Honan,  were  of  great  benefit,  deepening  the  spirit- 
ual life  of  our  people,  and  giving  a  greater  desire  for  the  salva- 
tion of  souls. 

Bitterness  in  the  hearts  of  some  of  our  Chinese  leaders  was  a 
great  hindrance  to  aggressive  work,  and  is  perhaps  the  reason  why  so 
few  (only  twenty-three)  have  been  added  to  the  city  church  this  year. 
But  we  are  glad  to  report  that  the  difficulty  has  been  cleared  away, 
and  that  the  elders  and  members  are  now  earnestly  working  in  har- 
mony.  The  future  looks  brighter  than  for  a  long  time. 

The  Church  has  supported  a  mission  chapel  at  the  village 
of  Ch'ing  He,  six  miles  northwest  of  Peking,  at  a  cost  of  $180 
Mexican.

100  NORTH  CHINA— PEKING. 

New  property  has  been  bought  and  it  is  planned  to  locate  there  a 
better  equipped  helper.  This  is  an  important  though  difficult  field,  as 
it  is  near  the  barracks  of  the  northern  division  of  the  Imperial  army. 
On  Sundays  the  soldiers  are  off  duty  and  come  to  the  chapel  in  great 
numbers;  many  to  scoff  and  make  trouble,  but  there  are  a  few  faith- 
ful Christians  among  them.  The  commanding  officer  is  strongly  in 
sympathy  with  our  work  there.  This  mission  is  carried  on  entirely  by 
Chinese  without  foreign  help.  The  total  contributions  of  the  Chinese 
themselves  for  church  expenses,  benevolences,  etc.,  amounts  to  $500 
Mexican.  Foreigners  have  given  a  like  sum,  so  that  $1,000  Mexican 
have  been  raised  on  the  field. 

Street  Chapels. — At  the  cross-roads  chapel  there  has  been 
daily  preaching-  by  the  helpers,  and  for  several  months  after 
Chinese  New  Year  services  were  held  every  night.  These,  were 
attended  by  large  numbers  of  men  whose  duties  prevented  their 
coming  in  the  daytime ;  among  these  were  shopkeepers,  stu- 
dents, and  police  officers,  as  well  as  idle  passers-by.  They 
were  attentive  listeners  and  a  few  always  remained  for  the 
prayer  meeting  and  some  found  the  truth. 

Sunday  afternoons  Dr.  Wherry  led  a  more  formal  service,  intended 
for  those  who  could  not  or  were  not  inclined  to  come  to  the  church. 
The  boys  from  Truth  Hall  also  frequently  spent  Sunday  afternoon 
assisting  with  the  singing  and  testifying  for  Christ.  Unfortunately, 
the  An-Ting  dispensary  has  been  closed,  thereby  rendering  useless 
one  important  factor  of  the  street  chapel  work.  Mr.  Cunningham  has 
spent  a  part  of  almost  every  day  at  this  chapel ;  Dr.  Martin  has 
preached  there  several  times  a  week,  and  the  3'Ounger  ordained  mis- 
sionaries have  helped  as  opportunity  offered.  A  bookstore  has  been 
opened  by  the  chapel  for  the  sale  of  Christian  and  educational  books. 
It  is  the  only  store  of  this  kind  in  the  whole  north  city.  It  is  managed 
by  Chinese  and  is  quite  an  attraction  for  the  chapel  services.  The 
managers  spend  their  leisure  time  in  teaching  such  inquirers  for  the 
truth  as  may  come  in  to  listen. 

At  the  Yen  Tai  Hsie  Chie  (Pipe  Street)  chapel  the  helpers 
have  been  assisted  by  the  Theological  Seminary  students. 
■Owing  to  his  many  duties  as  teacher  in  the  seminary,  Dr.  Fenn 
lias  found  but  little  time  to  superintend  the  chapel  preaching. 
Another  ordained  missionary  is  greatly  needed  for  this  and 
other  lines  of  evangelistic  work.  It  is  to  be  hoped  that  a 
better  location  can  be  procured  for  this  chapel  somewhere  on 
a  great  street. 

At  Ch'i  Shou  Wei  (Douw  Chapel)  regular  services  have  been  held, 
conducted  by  the  helper,  Mr.  Li.  On  Sundays,  IMiss  McCoy  often 
assisted  by  teaching  the  women.  Mr.  Gleysteen  has  also  spent  some 
time  preaching  there.  This  is  a  difficult  field  to  work  on  account  of 
its  location. 

The  Union  Theological  Seminary  has  been  the  centre  of 
much  aggressive  evangelistic  work.  Regular  services  have 
been  held,  using  a  large  classroom,  which  has  been  filled  to 
overflowing.     The  fine  new  church  building  is  now  finished,

however,  and  will  become  the  home  of  a  second  church  in  the 
near  future,  as  well  as  being  useful  for  a  seminary  chapel. 
The  services  have  been  carried  on  by  Dr.  Fenn  and  his  Ameri- 
can Board  colleague,  Dr.  Goodrich,  Dean  of  the  Seminary.  Miss 
McCoy  and  Mrs.  Goodrich  have  also  helped  Mrs.  Fenn  with 
the  work  among  women  and  children. 

COUNTRY  FIELDS.— The  north  field,  consisting  of  the 
centres  Kao  Li  Ying  and  Huai  Jou  Hsien  with  the  surround- 
ing villages,  has  not  been  very  extensively  worked  this  year, 
owing  to  the  absence  of  Mr,  Gleysteen  and  the  fact  that  one 
of  the  helpers  was  in  the  city  attending  the  Theological  Semin- 
ary. The  people  are  very  poor  and  illiterate,  so  that  one 
method  of  propagating  the  Truth,  viz. :  by  selling  Gospels  and 
tracts,  meets  with  little  success.  But  we  trust  that  by  aggres- 
sive, faithful  work  on  our  part  and  the  blessing  of  God  these 
people  will  yet  be  won  to  the  Saviour. 

The  east  field  is  more  encouraging.  Here  five  large  towns 
have  had  services  every  Sunday,  led  usually  by  a  helper,  some- 
. times  by  Mr.  Hicks,  the  missionary  in  charge.  The  markets 
have  been  faithfully  visited  by  the  helpers,  who  offered  as  their 
wares,  Gospels  and  tracts  explaining  the  Truth  to  the  crowds 
that  gather  to  see  the  strange  sight  of  something  being  sold 
for  what  it  cost  or  less.  About  10,000  Gospels  and  1,000 
religious  books  have  been  sold  this  year.  The  colporteurs  also 
do  much  visiting  of  villages.  They  are  much  more  cordially 
received  now  than  ever  before. 

During  the  Winter,  three  inquirers'  classes  were  held.  Two  were 
conducted  by  Mr.  Hicks,  but  the  last  one  was  managed  entirely  by  the 
Chinese  helpers  themselves,  the  expenses  being  borne  by  the  church 
members.  In  this  field  we  have  three  evangelists  and  eight  colporteurs, 
who  are  responsible  for  a  parish  of  more  than  half  a  million  people. 
All  of  these  workers  attended  the  Goforth  meetings  in  the  city  and 
received  a  great  spiritual  uplift.  Our  great  need  is  for  more  and  better 
equipped  Chinese  evangelists  and  a  greater  zeal  in  personal  work  on 
the  part  of  the  Church  members. 

SCHOOLS. — The  Union  Theological  Seminary  this  spring 
graduated  its  first  class,  twelve  men.  Of  this  number  only  a 
few  belong  to  our  Mission,  however ;  the  others  are  connected 
with  the  American  Board  and  the  London  Mission. 

The  regular  force  of  teachers  consisted  of  Dr.  Goodrich  of  the 
American  Board  Mission,  Mr.  Meech  of  the  London  Mission,  Dr.  Fenn 
and  Dr.  Wherry  of  our  own  Mission.  Mrs.  Goodrich  also  rendered 
good  service  in  teaching.  Both  she  and  Mrs.  Fenn  have  exercised  a 
motherly  care  over  the  students.  The  men  have  worked  diligently, 
not  only  in  their  studies  but  also  in  various  forms  of  evangelistic  activ- 
ities, such  as  street  chapel  preaching,  visiting  acquaintances,  welcoming 
strangers,  and  interesting  and  instructing  the  servants  employed  on 
the  compound.

At  the  Union  Medical  College,  Dr.  Hall  has  done  as  much 
work  as  his  pursuit  of  the  Chinese  language  would  permit.  He 
attended  faculty  meetings  and  assisted  during  the  last  term  in 
teaching  a  class  in  pharmacy. 

We  have  had  no  representatives  in  the  faculty  of  the  Union 
College  at  T'ung-chou  this  year,  although  Dr.  Wherry  has  held 
himself  in  readiness  to  teach  if  a  class  was  formed  in  his  de- 
partment. Mr.  Charles  Corbett  has  since  arrived  to  become 
our  permanent  representative  there. 

Truth  Hall,  our  boys'  academy,  has  had  a  good  year.  This 
is  a  fine  school.  Twenty-six  boys  have  been  enrolled  in  the 
academy,  thirty-two  in  the  intermediate  grade,  and  twenty- 
seven  in  the  day-school,  making  in  all  a  total  of  eighty-five 
boys  in  the  building.  There  has  been  an  average  attendance 
of  seventy-five.  The  boys  have  done  their  work  with  great 
credit,  some  having  made  remarkable  progress.  Eight  fine 
young  men  were  graduated  this  year,  most  of  whom  will  go 
on  to  college  at  T'ung-chou.  One  was  only  fifteen  years 
old,  the  youngest  boy  who  has  ever  finished  the  work  of  this 
school.  At  the  graduating  exercises  each  of  the  eight  took 
part  either  in  oration  or  debate.  Several  songs  by  the  school 
showed  their  thorough  musical  training.  Dr.  W.  A.  P.  Mar- 
tin, founder  of  the  school,  presented  the  diplomas. 

The  spiritual  temperature  of  the  school  was  not  high  for  a  time, 
although  marked  progress  in  the  Christian  Hfe  was  made  by  many. 
When  the  Goforth  meetings  were  in  progress  the  boys  held  back, 
seeming  to  have  hardened  themselves  against  the  Spirit's  power ;  but 
the  day  after  Mr.  Goforth  left,  at  morning  prayers  a  wave  of  confes- 
sion and  prayer  swept  over  the  school.  One  after  another  the  boys 
rose  and  confessed  their  sins,  begging  the  forgiveness  of  teachers  and 
comrades  for  wrongs  done.    Since  then  a  better  spirit  has  prevailed. 

Praise  should  be  given  to  Mrs.  Cunningham  for  achieving  such 
splendid  results.  She  taught  more  than  four  hours  each  day,  and  by 
her  example  and  loving  personal  interest  in  each  boy  she  has  power- 
fully affected  their  lives.  She  has  indeed  been  a  mother  to  them. 
Praise  must  also  be  given  to  the  Chinese  teachers  who  ha.ve  done 
their  work  so  well,  and  have  set  before  the  students  such  an  example 
of  Christian  manhood. 

The  boys'  boarding  school  at  Ma  Fang  in  the  east  country 
field  has  had  an  enrollment  of  twelve.  The  wife  of  the  helper 
is  the  teacher. 

While  good  work  has  been  done,  the  school  cannot  be  properly 
developed  until  a  teacher  is  obtained  who  can  give  full  time  to  the 
work.  As  this  is  an  important  centre,  a  large  school  might  be  main- 
tained if  a  well-equipped  man  could  be  placed  in  charge.  In  the  north 
field  at  Huai  Jou  Hsien  the  girls'  boarding  school,  also  taught  by  a 
helper's  wife,  has  had  a  good  year  in  spite  of  a  small  attendance. 

The  city  day-schools  for  boys  and  girls  have  been  well  at- 
tended and  have  done  excellent  work.  There  are  two  for 
boys  and  two  for  girls.

This  year  we  have  a  kindergarten  to  report.  Through  the 
kindness  of  Mr.  L.  H.  Severance,  the  entire  east  court  at  the 
Second  Street  compound  has  been  fitted  up  for  a  kindergarten, 
with  rooms  for  the  girls'  day-school,  women's  prayer  meet- 
ing and  study  classes  and  industrial  class.  Miss  McCoy  was 
placed  in  charge.  The  school  opened  with  thirty-five  little 
tots.  The  school  has  proved  to  be  a  great  success,  benefiting 
both  the  little  folks  and  their  parents,  who  are  thus  led  first  to 
take  an  interest  in  the  educational  work  of  the  Mission  and 
then  to  study  the  Bible. 

MEDICAL  WORK.— An-Ting  Hospital  for  Men  has  been 
closed,  because  both  Dr.  Hall  and  Dr.  Dilley,  being  recent 
arrivals,  were  still  engaged  in  language  study.  Both  are  mak- 
ing good  progress,  and  Dr.  Hall,  who  has  been  on  the  field 
a  year  longer  than  Dr.  Dilley,  will  soon  be  able  to  open  the 
hospital.  Meantime  he  has  given  his  spare  time  to  the  ^ledical 
College,  while  Dr.  Dilley  has  spent  the  year  at  Paoting-fu, 
studying  Chinese  and  attending  to  emergency  cases  during  the 
absence  of  Dr.  Lewis  on  furlough.  He  expects  to  open  our 
dispensary  in  September. 

In  Douw  Hospital  for  Women,  8,020  treatments  have  been 
given  in  daily  clinics.  There  have  been  64  in-patients,  and 
Dr.  Leonard  has  seen  150  patients  in  their  homes.  Thus  a 
total  of  8,234  treatments  have  been  given,  and  at  an  average 
cost  of  13c.  Mexican  each;  $622.11  having  been  raised  on  the 
field  and  $480  having  been  granted  by  the  Board.  The  Gos- 
pel has  been  faithfully  presented  to  the  patients  as  they  awaited 
their  turn  in  the  anteroom. 

Miss  McKillican  has  assisted  at  the  daily  clinics  and  with  opera- 
tions, besides  conducting  daily  prayers  with  the  in-patients.  In  addition 
to  her  duties  in  the  hospital,  Dr.  Leonard  has  taught  in  the  Nurses' 
Training  School  and  three  times  a  week  has  crossed  the  city  to  give 
lectures  in  the  newly  opened  Union  Medical  College  for  Women  at  the 
Methodist  Mission. 

WOMEN'S  WORK. — Evangelistic  work  for  women  has 
been  systematically  carried  on  at  both  the  Second  Street  com- 
pound and  Drum  Tower  West.  The  attendance  at  the  weekly 
women's  prayer  meetings  and  the  Sunday  classes  has  been 
very  good  and  much  interest  has  been  manifested.  Four  in- 
quirers' classes  have  been  held  at  Second  Street,  at  the  close 
of  one  of  which  those  who  had  completed  the  prescribed  course 
of  study  were  examined  by  Mr.  Cunningham  and  received 
certificates.  At  the  other  compound  a  class  was  held  at  which 
eight  received  certificates. 

In  the  country  no  work  has  been  done  for  women.  Lack  of  workers 
is  the  reason.  Our  helpers  plead  with  tears  for  some  one  to  teach  their 
women,  but  no  one  can  go.

STATION  COLPORTEUR  CLASS.— A  new  departure  in 
union  work  was  tried  this  year.  Four  out  of  the  five  Missions 
working  in  and  around  Peking-  united  in  giving  the  customary 
month's  instruction  to  their  colporteurs.  Eighty-six  men  as- 
sembled at  the  Union  Theological  Seminary  compound.  They 
were  divided  into  two  classes.  The  "freshmen"  numbered 
sixty-seven  earnest,  hungry  men.  It  was  very  interesting  to  sit 
with  these  men,  about  the  number  or  perhaps  the  grade  the 
Master  sent  out  nineteen  hundred  years  ago  to  prepare  His 
way  and  study  the  Gospel  theme,  the  things  pertaining  to  the 
kingdom.  Teachers  from  the  different  Missions  shared  in  the 
work  of  instruction.  The  added  enthusiasm  and  broadening 
of  view  gained  by  this  union  effort  will  prove  good  and  help- 
ful to  all. 

LITERARY  WORK.— Dr.  Wherry  has  finished  more  than 
half  of  the  section  of  the  Old  Testament  assigned  to  him  for 
translation  into  Wenli,  the  literary  language  of  China.  He 
also  has  to  criticise  and  revise  the  work  of  the  other  members 
of  the  Committee. 

It  is  hoped  to  produce  an  Old  Testament,  not  only  much  more  nearly 
literal,  but  also  more  agreeable  to  the  eye  and  ear  of  the  highly  culti- 
vated Chinese  scholar  than  any  now  in  existence.  Dr.  Wherry  has  also 
this  year  prepared  a  copy  of  the  Old  Testament  in  Mandarin,  with 
the  newly  adopted  terms  for  God  and  the  Holy  Spirit  as  approved  by 
the  Federation  Council.  In  addition  he  has  had  a  share  in  the  prepara- 
tion of  the  Sunday-school  Lessons  published  quarterly  by  the  North 
China  Tract  Society. 

Dr.  W.  A.  P.  Martin,  our  senior  missionary,  has  just  com- 
pleted his  new  book  on  comparative  religion,  entitled  "Chris- 
tianity and  Other  Creeds."  This  is  intended  to  be  a  companion 
volume  to  the  well-known  "Evidences  of  Christianity,"  pub- 
lished by  him  more  than  fifty  years  ago  and  still  recognized 
(according  to  the  Centenary  Conference)  as  a  text-book 
second  to  no  other.  Dr.  Martin  has  also  translated  the  two 
Memorials  of  the  Centenary  Conference  which  were  forwarded 
to  the  Throne  conjointly  by  the  Legations  of  Great  Britain, 
Germany  and  the  L^nited  States. 

Dr.  C.  H.  Fenn  has  completed  his  "Concordance  of  the 
Revised  New  Testament,"  a  work  of  three  years.  It  will  be 
of  inestimable  value  to  Chinese  Bible  students.  It  is  the  first 
one  to  be  published.  Dr.  Fenn  has  also  revised  his  "Diates- 
saron." 

Rev.  A.  M.  Cunningham  has  composed  or  translated  a  num- 
ber of  new  hymns,  besides  songs  and  choruses  sung  by  the 
school-boys  in  Truth  Hall,  thus  rendering  great  assistance  to 
the  work.  The  Gospel  in  song  is  an  effective  way  of  present- 
ing the  Truth  and  fixing  it  in  the  minds  of  the  people. 


NORTH  CHINA— PAOTING-FU.  105 

Miss  B.  C.  McCoy  has  translated  many  children's  songs  and 
games  for  use  in  the  kindergarten.  It  is  hoped  that  these 
will  be  published,  in  order  that  they  may  find  a  place  in  the 
kindergartens  all  over  the  Empire. 

PAOTING-FU  STATION. 

The  missionaries  write  that  the  year  has  been  one  of  united 
longing  for  the  manifestation  of  God's  power. 

Not  that  there  has  not  been  much  to  be  thankful  for,  but,  hearing  of 
the  Holy  Spirit's  work  in  Manchuria  and  Korea,  we  had  fondly  hoped 
for  a  hke  blessing.  The  members  attending  the  regular  services  have 
increased  and  the  people  are  reverent  and  attractive.  The  Sunday- 
school  is  well  superintended  by  one  of  the  teachers  of  the  Boys'  School, 
a  young  man  who  has  a  very  large  salary  for  giving  his  afternoons  to 
teaching  in  a  Government  school  in  the  city. 

At  the  beginning  of  the  year  it  was  feared  that  the  Boys' 
School  must  be  closed,  as  no  one  had  time  to  take  charge  of 
it,  and  the  Chinese  teachers,  proving  unsatisfactory,  had  been 
dismissed.  Dr.  Lowrie,  however,  in  addition  to  his  full  quota 
of  work,  took  charge  himself,  and  new  Chinese  teachers  de- 
veloped who  have  kept  doing  better  and  growing  in  grace 
all  the  time.  The  school  now  numbers  fifty-five  and  the  Sta- 
tion is  justly  proud  of  it.  The  young  man  referred  to  above 
in  connection  with  the  Sunday-school  gives,  almost  gratui- 
tously, to  our  Boys'  School  as  much  time  as  he  can  spare  from 
the  Government  school. 

The  Girls'  School  under  Miss  Newton  has  had  a  good  year. 
The  attendance  has  been  larger  than  during  any  previous 
year.  Five  girls  graduated  in  June.  Three  have  been  received 
into  the  church  and  seven  others  have  applied  for  baptism. 
Many  have  shown  development  of  character  and  growth  in 
Christian  experience.  The  grade  of  work  is  somewhat  in  ad- 
vance of  previous  years,  and  a  stricter  system  of  marking  has 
been  introduced  with  good  results.  Two  of  the  best  pupils 
died  during  the  year,  witnessing  a  good  confession.  To  one 
of  them  was  vouchsafed  one  of  those  inexplicable  experiences, 
hearing  heavenly  music  and  seeing  a  wondrous  vision.  Three 
girls  from  official  families  are  numbered  among  the  pupils, 
all  enjoying  their  work  and  environment.  ■  These  girls,  as  well 
as  any  other  outsider,  of  course,  pay  the  full  cost  of  their 
education.  The  fee  for  the  children  of  church  members  has 
been  raised  very  considerably,  but  no  objection  has  been  made. 
Miss  Newton  writes: 

Last  year  we  recorded  a  manifest  work  of  grace  in  the  heart  of 
Mrs.  Chang,  one  of  our  teachers,  in  regard  to  making  a  voluntary 
restitution  of  money  dishonestly  gained  many  years  before.  This  year 
Miss  Li  has  done  something  similar,  though  with  this  great  difference, 


106  NORTH  CHINA— PAOTING-FU. 

that  she  was  bearing  not  her  own  sins  but  the  sins  of  others.  In  the 
settlement  of  indemnity  claims  after  the  Boxer  year,  many  of  the 
Church  of  England  Mission,  to  which  Miss  Li's  family  belong,  admin- 
istered what  they  called  justice  with  a  high  hand.  Since  that  year  the 
Anglican  Church  in  that  district  has  been  cold  and  formal.  Miss  Li, 
with  spiritual  discernment,  has  felt  convinced  that  one  great  reason 
for  the  unsatisfactory  condition  of  the  church  was  the  unforgiving, 
resentful  spirit  shown  by  the  Christians  toward  those  who  had  wronged 
them.  For  years  Miss  Li  has  been  carrying  this  burden,  praying  con- 
stantly to  be  shown  how  she  could  influence  her  father  and  brother 
to  restore  to  these  Boxers  all  that  had  been  extorted  by  her  family.  The 
father  and  stepmother  vigorously  objected,  but  the  brother  felt  his 
sister  to  be  right,  and  agreed  to  sell  his  most  valuable  possession, 
some  well-grown  trees,  which  a  foreigner  agreed  to  buy  for  $ioo.  Miss 
Li  borrowed  $70  from  two  friends,  and  adding  to  these  sums  what 
they  had  been  able  to  save  from  their  salaries,  they  went  home  this 
Summer,  determined  to  restore  to  these  astonished  Boxers  all  that  their 
family  had  received. 

Mr.  and  Mrs.  Killie  have  made  many  country  trips  to  the 
four  counties  lying  west  and  northwest  of  Paoting-fu.  Had 
more  native  helpers  been  available  possibly  the  other  two 
counties  in  their  care  might  also  have  been  reached.  This  lack 
of  suitable  helpers  every  department  of  the  work  feels  most 
keenly. 

In  Man  Ch'eng  County  preaching  and  Sunday-school  have 
been  held  every  Sunday  in  the  year,  with  an  average  attend- 
ance of  thirty-five.  The  most  encouraging  feature  is  an  awak- 
ening sense  of  responsibility  in  witnessing  for  Christ.  Volun- 
teer bands  of  men  continue  to  visit  and  preach  in  the  street 
chapel  in  the  country  town,  while  one  of  the  converts,  a  re- 
formed opium  smoker,  has  developed  into  a  trusted  and  happy 
preacher,  and  is  now  in  charge  of  the  Wan  Hsien  Street  chapel. 
The  new  property  purchased  there  has  been  a  source  of  great 
satisfaction,  and  a  regular  service  followed  by  Sunday-school 
is  held  every  week.  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Killie  with  their  Chinese 
helpers  have  held  several  classes  for  men  and  women  here 
during  the  past  year. 

Mrs.  Killie  has  conducted  six  women's  classes  and  the  number 
interested  is  constantly  increasing.  One  of  the  counties  in  this  field  is 
very  inaccessible  and  can  be  reached  only  on  bad  mountain  roads.  On 
their  way  to  hold  a  class  there,  Mrs.  Killie  was  pushed  over  a  preci- 
pice bv  a  pack-mule  in  their  train,  breaking  a  rib  and  bruising  herself 
badly  in  the  fall.  As  it  was  as  difficult  to  go  back  as  to  go  forward, 
they'  pushed  on  to  their  terminus,  and.  although  suflfering  sadly,  Mrs. 
Killie  persevered  in  teaching  a  class  of  sixteen  women  while  lying  on 
her  back.  When  managing  alone  was  out  of  the  question,  she  would 
call  in  her  cook  to  assist  her,  as  he  was  something  of  a  student.  As 
he  could  not,  according  to  Chinese  etiquette,  look  at  the  women,  he 
sat  on  the  door-sill  with  his  back  to  the  class  and  thus  helped  them 
learn  to  read.  The  women  seemed  greatly  touched  by  Mrs.  Killie's 
devotion.  As  a  thank  offering  for  spared  life,  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Killie 
presented  the  Kuang  Ch'ang  people  with  enough  ground  to  build  a  new 
chapel.    This  they  hope  to  complete  this  Summer.    Mr.  Killie  has  given 


NORTH  CHINA— PAOTING-FU.  107 

enjoyable  and  prohtable  talks  with  his  magic  lantern  to  both  Chinese 
and  foreigners  in  Poking,  Shantung,  and  Paoting-fu  during  the  year. 

The  work  in  the  east  and  north  fields  has  brought  encourage- 
ment. ]\Ir.  and  Mrs.  Mather  have  given  almost  their  entire 
time  to  it,  and  have  found  much  to  make  them  thank  God  and 
take  courage.  One  hundred  and  eighty-five  new  villages  have 
been  visited  by  one  or  both,  and  chapels  have  been  opened  in 
five  cities  and  three  market  towns.  Mrs.  Mather  accompanied 
her  husband  whenever  she  could  leave  the  Women's  Hospital, 
where  she  has  been  helping  Dr.  Elizabeth  Lewis  by  translat- 
ing for  her,  and  sometimes  dispensing  when  Dr.  Lewis  was 
indisposed. 

In  the  east  field  are  seven  helpers.  Only  one  of  these  could  really  be 
considered  efficient,  though  the  others  are  earnest  Christians  faithfully 
doing  their  best.  In  Tsang  T'sun  the  work  is  showing  progress.  The 
children  there  have  always  responded,  and  now  after  five  years  a  vil- 
lage child  who  has  been  in  Miss  Newton's  school  is  during  her  holi- 
days trying  to  visit  women  who  cannot  come  to  the  chapel  and  teach 
thern  at  home.  In  Ku  Ch'eng  Air.  Mather  had  the  unique  experience  of 
baptizing  at  one  time  four  generations  of  one  family.  In  An-Su  Mr. 
and  Mrs.  Mather  gave  magic  lantern  exhibitions  on  the  life  and  par- 
ables of  Christ.  As  in  Tsang  T'sun,  the  children  were  perhaps  the 
niost  ready  to  respond,  and  already  three  of  the  boys  have  been  taken 
into  the  boys'  boarding  school.  The  boys  from  the  surrounding 
country  fields  are  considered  very  promising.  The  month  of  May  Mr. 
and  Mrs.  Mather  spent  on  the  tortuous  stream  called  a  river  which 
runs  through  our  east  field.  They  visited  and  sold  books  and  tracts  in 
sixty-three  villages.  Most  of  those  village  people  had  never  heard  of 
the  Saviour.  Wherever  a  school  existed,  Mr.  Mather  made  a  point  of 
visiting  it  and  endeavoring  to  establish  friendly  relations  with  the 
teacher.  The  markets  have  been  attended  and  in  two  places  regular 
Sunday  services  have  been  held.  In  three  other  places  earnest  Chris- 
tians are  stationed.  This  Summer  five  college  students  from  Shantung 
and  our  own  grown-up  school  boys,  who  have  just  graduated  from 
Peking,  are  scattered  over  the  country  fields,  superintended  by  Mr. 
Killie  and  Mr.  Mather.  Mr.  Chou  has  also  finished  a  special  theological 
course  at  the  Union  Seminary,  and  promises  to  be  most  useful  in  the 
future. 

Dr.  and  Mrs.  Lewis  were  gladly  welcomed  back  from  fur- 
lough. Their  return  was  a  special  joy  to  their  sister,  Dr. 
Elizabeth  Lewis,  who  has  suflfered  much  from  neurasthenia. 
All  year  she  has  had  charge  of  the  city  dispensary,  and 
since  March,  when  Dr.  Mackey  had  to  go  home,  of  the  dis- 
pensary daily  carried  on  in  connection  with  the  Hodge  Me- 
morial Hospital.  Mrs.  Mather  has  been  her  interpreter  in  the 
hospital  and  Miss  Gowans  in  the  city  dispensary,  but  the  time 
has  almost  come  when  she  can  dispense  with  a  foreigner's 
help. 

At  the  compound  dispensary  3,905  patients  have  been  seen  during  the 
year,  and  in  the  city  dispensary  1,490.  Officials'  wives  have  freely 
called  upon  the  women  physicians  to  minister  to  them,  and  as  a  fee

of  almost  $2  gold  is  asked  for  each  visit,  Dr.  Elizabeth  Lewis  hopes 
in  time  to  make  these  out-calls  pay  the  running  expenses  of  the  hos- 
pital. Since  Dr.  Mackey's  departure  for  her  well-earned  furlough,  Dr. 
Dilley,  although  supposed  to  have  his  time  free  for  language  study, 
has  kindly  assisted  in  operations  where  an  anaesthetic  was  necessary. 

Mr.  Chapin  helped  with  famine  rehef  work  in  the  Spring, 
and  now  takes  a  class  in  Sunday-school.  Next  year  he  hopes 
to  speak  Chinese  as  fluently  as  he  did  when  he  was  four  years 
old  and  left  China  with  his  parents  for  America. 

Two  of  the  Chinese  helpers  have  been  particularly  useful. 
One,  Mr.  T'sui,  in  addition  to  considerable  country  work,  con- 
ducts a  weekly  personal  Workers'  Band.  The  other  helper, 
Mr.  Li  Pen  Ken,  our  one  elder,  was  loaned  to  Manchuria  to 
follow  Mr.  Goforth's  revival  services  there.  He  did  this  most 
acceptably.  The  Manchurian  missionaries  wrote  of  him  that 
"he  was  the  choice  man  of  all  China  for  the  special  work  that 
was  needed." 

The  street  chapel  work  inside  the  city  has  been  carried  on 
under  great  difficulties.  Dr.  Lowrie,  requiring  to  give  so  much 
of  his  time  to  the  Boys'  School,  found  it  impossible  to  be  there 
every  afternoon,  as  formerly ;  but  the  need  has  made  two  of 
the  Boys'  School  teachers  volunteer  their  services  and  thus  de- 
veloped their  usefulness. 

The  attendance  on  the  whole  has  been  equal  to  that  of  former  years, 
a  larger  proportion  of  men  of  thought  and  position  being  found  in  the 
daily  audiences.  An  occasional  lecturer  in  the  city  "Popular  Lecture 
Hall"  was  there  heard  to  say,  in  speaking  of  Christianity,  that  it  was 
useless  to  attempt  to  understand  it  without  resorting  to  the  exercise 
of  prayer.  As  this  is  one  of  our  most  frequent  themes  in  the  chapel, 
we  were  glad  to  see  it  promulgated  on  a  platform  and  to  an  audience 
so  widely  different  from  our  own.  Another  interesting  item  was  that 
one  of  the  most  hopeful  inquirers  in  Mr.  Killie's  far-away  field  had 
first  been  touched  by  a  prayer  he  had  heard  in  the  street  chapel. 

Once  in  six  weeks  the  "He  T'san  Hui,"  or  Union  Council, 
meets  in  the  pastor's  house.  Chinese  and  foreign  teachers  and 
evangelists  give  reports  of  their  work  since  the  preceding 
meeting  and  new  measures  are  discussed. 

The  work  for  women  in  the  city  has  gone  on  much  as  in 
former  years.  The  daily  dispensary  has  brought  many  within 
hearing  of  the  Gospel  and  opened  homes  to  visits. 

It  is  now  a  rare  thing  for  a  foreign  woman  to  be  treated  with  any- 
thing but  the  greatest  courtesy  and  cordiality ;  and  what  is  better,  the 
hunger  for  the  Bread  of  Life  is  constantly  growing  more  apparent. 
From  homes  where  the  women  would  not  be  allowed  to  attend  a  pubhc 
service  prayer  to  God  daily  ascends.  Two  women  have  been  released 
from  opium  through  God's  help,  and  although  some  whose  names  were 
on  the  church  roll  have  fallen  into  sin,  we  believe  God's  Spirit  will 
bring  them  back. 


NORTH  CHINA— SHUNTE-FU.  109"^ 

The  third  Annual  Rally  was  held  in  November.  It  was 
the  best  one  of  all. 

The  special  theme  was  "Seeing  the  Face  of  Jesus,"  and  our  special 
hymn  the  well-known  "Glory  Song."  From  far  and  near  the  church 
members  came.  Eight  men  and  six  women  came  from  Kuang  Ch'ang, 
ninety  miles  away,  and  although  some  of  their  poor  feet  were  frozen 
on  their  long  tramp  home,  they  still  felt  it  well  worth  while.  Mr.  Killie 
said  to  the  poor  old  grandmother  who  had  suffered  most,  "You  will 
never  want  to  make  that  tramp  again,  I  fear."  "No  matter  what 
others  do,  God  willing,  I  will  walk  again  next  year,"  was  her  brave 
reply.  A  large  map,  pointing  out  the  great  field  for  which  we  as  a 
church  are  responsible,  had  a  great  effect  upon  the  people.  It  was 
constantly  alluded  to,  and  underneath  were  the  words,  "The  salvation 
of  this  territory  depends  on  you  and  me."  Many  men  who  had  not  a 
great  deal  of  money  pledged"  time,  a  month,  or  a  week,  or  so  many 
market  days,  to  go  to  some  other  place  and  tell  what  they  knew.  After 
the  last  session  the  women  gathered  together  with  the  question,  "What 
can  we  do?"  Down  they  went  on  their  knees,  and  before  the  meeting 
broke  up  they  had  chosen  the  most  earnest  of  their  number  and  asked 
her  to  go  to  Pai  Kou  He,  the  farthest  away  Station  open  in  our  field 
to  the  northeast.  They  promised  to  support  her  as  far  as  lay  in  their 
power  financially,  and  solemnly  pledged  themselves  to  pray  daily  that 
God  would  bless  her  work.  Mrs.  Ch'en  is  a  very  humble,  ignorant,  but 
consecrated  woman  who  knows  she  is  nothing,  but  God  uses  her.  Once 
a  month  the  Chinese  women  church  members  meet  together  to  make 
their  contributions  and  pray  unitedly  for  her,  and  her  own  testimony 
is  that  since  her  friends  all  began  to  pray  for  her  she  has  not  known" 
what  homesickness  or  discouragement  was.  Please  unite  with  us  in' 
our  daily  prayer  that  God  will  raise  up  more  helpers  for  churches,- 
chapels,  hospitals,  schools,  and  women's  work,  men  and  women  ful^ 
of  the  Holy  Ghost  and  of  faith ;  also  for  the  deepening  of  the  Chris- 
tion  life  of  those  already  at  work. 

SHUNTE-FU  STATION. 

The  four  years  since  the  founding-  of  Shunte-fu  Station 
have  had  to  be  largely  devoted  to  erecting  buildings,  studying 
language  and  laying  foundations  for  the  large  future  work 
that  we  expect  to  develop. 

We  cannot  too  earnestly  express  our  gratitude  to  the  Fifth  Avenue 
Church  of  New  York,  and  especially  to  Mrs.  Hugh  O'Neill  and  Mrs. 
Darlington,  who  have  made  it  possible  thus  early  to  equip  the  Station. 
Their  generous  gifts  have  spared  the  workers  many  discouraging 
makeshifts  and  hastened  the  beginning  of  uninterrupted  work  along 
regular  lines.  The  Women's  Hospital,  for  which  funds  are  available, 
and  buildings  for  a  boys'  and  a  girls'  school  are  yet  to  be  constructed,, 
but  this  Fall,  with  the  completion  of  the  house  for  Mr.  Miller,  every 
man  will  dwell  under  his  own  roof.  A  broad  walk  has  been  laid 
across  the  compound,  and  over  it  now  is  cast  grateful  shade  from  a 
row  of  trees  which  we  planted.  On  this  thoroughfare  daily  pass  the 
evidences  of  the  active  work  of  the  Station — inquirers  from  the  east 
field,  some  aged  and  halting,  to  their  classes  in  Mr.  Miller's  study;  the 
school-boys,  clean,  erect,  and  alert,  to  Mrs.  Hawley's  singing  class  or 
to  drill  in  the  church  court ;  and  the  half  blind  leading  the  blind  to 
the  dispensary  clinic,  while  the  hospital  coolie  hurries  b}',  carrying  his 
aged  mother  on  his  laack,  to  the  same  destination. 


no  xNORTH  CHINA— SHUNTE-FU. 

There  is  now  at  least  a  portion  of  a  missionary's  time  for 
each  of  the  four  Hnes  of  work.  In  addition  to  holding  two 
Station  classes,  Mr.  Miller  made  a  trip  to  the  east  field  and  an 
exploratory  trip  into  the  Shansi  Mountains.  At  the  latter 
place  he  found  the  people  in  a  pitiable  condition.  Much  has 
been  heard  of  the  havoc  of  opium  in  Shansi,  but  here  he  saw 
it  in  all  of  its  body  and  soul-destroying  power.  Men,  women, 
and  even  young  children  were  dulled  by  the  drug  to  every 
interest  in  life  save  satisfying  the  craving  for  more  opium. 
Needy  as  the  field  appeared  to  him,  he  found  it  too  difficult  of 
access  to  be  worked  from  Shunte-fu  at  present,  as  we  have 
four  counties  in  our  own  immediate  district. 

As  superintendent  of  the  church,  Mr.  Miller  has  systematized 
and  advanced  the  evangelistic  work  in  every  department.  The 
attendance  at  the  services  has  steadily  increased,  including 
some  who  were  first  interested  by  Dr.  Whiting's  faithful  work 
in  the  little  street  chapel. 

The  church,  situated  at  the  intersection  of  the  main  roads  leading 
into  the  busy  suburb,  is  a  strategic  point  for  reaching  wayfarers.  The 
dedication  of  the  church  in  December  resulted  not  only  in  the  conse- 
cration of  the  house  to  God,  but  of  every  heart  in  our  little  force  to 
renewed  service.  The  sermon  and  prayer  by  Dr.  Lowrie  were  an 
inspiration  that  did  not  pass  with  the  hearing,  and  sowed  the  seed  in 
many  hearts.  At  the  Communion  services,  later  in  the  year,  five  men 
and  three  women  were  received,  especially  precious  as  the  first  of  the 
church  at  Shunte-fu.  The  lives  of  these  people  are  known,  and  show 
a  rooting  and  grounding  in  the  truths  faithfully  presented  by  the 
pastor. 

Concerning  the  work  in  the  east  field,  if  the  church  was 
expecting  immediate  results,  the  apportionment  of  this  ter- 
ritory to  us  would  not  be  viewed  with  unalloyed  gratification. 

Brother  rises  against  brother  and  friend  against  friend,  the  dis- 
putants as  a  preliminary  precaution  assuming  a  fervent  interest  in 
the  Gospel,  that  in  the  day  of  judgment  the  teacher's  favor  may  fall 
on  their  side.  Mothers  and  wives  importune  aid  for  the  sons  and 
brothers  who,  according  to  their  version,  have  been  imprisoned  for 
righteousness'  sake.  The  most  promising  inquirer  has  been  practically 
convicted  of  being  a  thief,  and  another,  asking  for  financial  aid,  sits 
down  on  the  walk,  opens  his  Bible,  and  devoutly  reads,  that  he  who 
passes  may  observe  his  piety.  Since  the  founding  of  the  Station  these 
people  have  not  ceased  to  importune  aid  in  lawsuits,  nor  to  offer  their 
allegiance  to  the  church  in  exchange  for  the  foreigner's  aid  in  their 
time  of  need.  These  things,  however,  simply  prove  anew  the  need  of 
missionary  work.  Our  Presbyterian  missionaries  in  China  have  learned 
to  be  careful  and  thorough,  and  they  are  seldom  deceived  by  the  un- 
worthy. The  Gospel  will  yet  change  hearts  here,  as  it  has  changed 
them  elsewhere. 

In  addition  to  the  duties  of  treasurer,  Mr.  Miller  was  as- 
signed to  the  oversight  of  the  construction  of  the  fourth  resi- 
dence at  Shunte-fu.  This  prevented  the  usual  number  of 
itinerating  trips,  but  all  other  work  was  carried  on  as  before. 


NORTH  CHINA— SHUNTE-FU.  HI 

Mr.  Hawley  was  appointed  in  October  to  open  a  boys'  school, 
some  of  the  leading-  merchants  having  previously  expressed  a 
desire  to  have  their  sons  enter  it. 

The  main  object  was  to  secure  and  widen  the  interest  in  our  work 
among  the  classes.  The  beginning  was  made  in  a  room  of  the  street 
chapel,  and  the  result  has  far  exceeded  expectations.  Forty  bright  boys 
at  the  close  of  the  year's  work  attested  the  zeal  and  patience  daily  put 
into  the  enterprise.  This  success  was  achieved  against  many  odds.  The 
Chinese  room,  where  heating  and  ventilation  conflicted,  a  total  lack  of 
any  place  for  recreation  or  even  fresh  air,  save  by  traversing  the  inter- 
vening mile  between  the  street  chapel  and  the  compound,  and  inade- 
quate Chinese  assistants  were  difficulties  which  had  to  be  endured. 

Mr.  Hawley  continued  his  language  study  during  the  year 
and  completed  the  three  years'  course.  Several  trips  with  the 
helper  were  made  to  surrounding  villages,  where  were  found 
crowds  of  interested  though  curious  listeners,  and  some  books 
and  tracts  were  sold. 

The  medical  work  has  grown  fully  to  justify  the  large, 
convenient  Hugh  O'Neil  Memorial  Hospital.  In  fact  there 
were  times  when  the  main  building,  the  Chinese  wards,  and 
the  women's  court  were  filled  to  overflowing.  The  increased 
confidence  of  the  people  has  resulted  in  bringing  a  larger  num- 
ber of  surgical  cases. 

There  are  stiii  prejudices  to  overcome,  as  in  the  case  of  the  man  who 
preferred  death  to  the  amputation  of  his  hand,  because  when  entering 
the  spirit  world  minus  this  useful  member  he  would  find  himself  the 
helpless  target  for  persecution  by  the  other  shades.  Every  day  brings 
cases  interesting,  amusing,  pathetic,  hopeless,  and  still  others  which 
justify  a  thousand  times  the  expenditure  of  time  and  strength,  and 
are  in  fact  the  saving  element  from  despondency;  for  many  come  too 
late  and  only  after  suffering  untold  tortures  from  Chinese  doctors. 

The  statistics  given  by  Dr.  Hamilton  are  as  follows :  Dispensary 
patients,  new,  1,523;  dispensary  patients,  old,  5,230 — a  total  of  6,753 ; 
ward  patients,  105 ;  surgical  operations  under  general  anaesthetic,  63 ; 
surgical  operations  under  local  anaesthetic,  34 — a  total  of  97 ;  opium 
patients,  76. 

Such  time  as  remained  from  operations  and  clinics  Dr.  Ham- 
ilton has  devoted  to  language  study. 

In  this  connection  Mr.  Li,  the  crippled  evangelist,  should  be  men- 
tioned. His  sunny,  Christian  spirit  is  a  help  to  foreigners  and  Chinese. 
He  cares  for  the  little  tubercular  orphan,  and  is  instant  in  season  and 
out  of  season  in  furthering  the  work. 

Miss  Hicks'  time  has  been  divided  between  language  study 
and  women's  work.  Four  short  country  trips  were  made  and 
one  class  was  held  at  the  compound.  Ten  women,  few  of 
whom  had  ever  left  their  native  village,  made  the  long  journey 
to   Shunte-fu  and  literally  opened  their  eyes  to  strange  new 


112  NORTH  CHINA— SHUNTE-FU. 

sights.  They  studied  diligently  for  ten  days,  and  however 
the  seed  may  have  rooted,  they  could  not  have  returned  the 
same  ignorant,  unthinking,  untouched  souls  that  they  came. 

A  Mohammedan  woman  in  the  suburb  offered  a  room,  and  weekly 
services  were  conducted  by  Miss  Hicks  and  Mrs.  Ma.  Frequent  visits 
were  made  to  other  homes,  and  we  were  grateful  to  find  the  same 
cordial  welcome  that  was  extended  to  us  in  early  days  when  we  were 
valuable  as  curiosities.  There  is  practically  no  limit  to  the  women's 
work,  even  as  conducted  from  the  compound,  for  the  frequent  days 
of  worship  at  the  temples  bring  hundreds  of  women  to  our  very  gates. 
Mrs.  Ma,  with  her  pleasant  manner,  tact  and  fervent  desire  to  reach 
souls,  is  invaluable.  The  strengthening  friendship  with  our  near  neigh- 
bors is  largely  due  to  her  interpreting  to  them  the  real  motive  and 
purpose  of  our  dwelling  among  them. 

The  wives  have  helped  as  far  as  household  duties  permitted. 

Mrs.  Miller  has  been  organist  at  the  church  services,  taught  in  the 
Sunday-school,  led  the  weekly  song  service,  and  filled  the  breach  in 
women's  work  when  Miss  Hicks  and  Mrs.  Ma  were  absent.  Mrs.  Haw- 
ley  has  continued  her  sewing  class  and  furthered  her  husband's  efforts 
in  making  the  boys'  school  a  success.  While  continuing  her  language 
study  as  time  and  strength  permitted,  she  also  taught  English  twice 
a  week  for  several  months.  Mrs.  Hamilton  studied  with  a  teacher 
almost  every  day,  but  with  one  ear  open  to  his  instructions  and  the 
other  to  domestic  sounds,  there  was  the  usual  result  attending  divergent 
forces.  Her  Sunday-school  class  has  grown  in  size  and  interest.  The 
standard  was  raised  by  the  addition  of  the  younger  boys  from  the 
school,  but  the  scale  of  attainment  still  ranges  from  the  child  bent  on 
keeping  quiet  her  infant  charge  to  the  little  miss  who  has  risen  to  the 
dignity  of  asking  doctrinal  questions. 

The  Station  greatly  appreciated  the  gift  of  a  piano  through 
Miss  Ward  and  Mrs.  Armour.  The  instrument  has  been  a 
source  of  pleasure  to  both  foreigners  and  Chinese.  It  will  be 
very  useful  in  the  work,  for  it  greatly  attracts  the  Chinese 
women. 

The  loss  of  Dr.  Keator  has  been  keenly  felt. 

What  it  has  meant  to  us  only  those  who  knew  her  in  times  when 
devotion,  untiring  energy,  and  self-sacrificing  zeal  were  needed  can 
fully  appreciate.  Miss  Hicks'  marriage  within  the  coming  year  will 
again  deplete  our  forces  and  the  women's  work  again  be  left  without 
a  head.  But  we  know  that  her  influence  will  still  be  exerted  for  the 
women  of  China.  Reinforcements  for  these  two  vacancies  are  expected 
in  the  near  future. 

For  the  unbroken  health  of  our  little  force  we  are  most  grateful  to 
a  loving  Father's  care.  Every  member  of  the  working  force  is  alive 
to  the  possibilities  of  the  coming  year  as  the  best  in  our  history.  Our 
greatest  encouragement  is  in  the  realization  that  ours  have  been  special 
privileges  and  opportunities,  and  that  in  each  heart  is  the  resolve  to 
use  them  to  His  glory.

TENG-CHOU  STATION. 

The  health  of  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Seymour  and  Miss  Snodgrass 
has  caused  anxiety  during  the  year.  The  two  former  managed 
to  go  on  with  their  work  till  after  Mission  meeting,  but  they 
were  obhged  to  return  to  America  during  the  Winter.  It  is 
confidently  expected  that  the  rest  and  change  will  restore  them 
to  health,  so  that  they  can  go  back  to  the  field  at  the  expiration 
of  their  furlough.  Miss  Snodgrass'  furlough  had  to  be  pro- 
longed and  she  was  at  home  all  the  year,  but  will  be  in  China 
again  by  the  time  this  report  is  published. 

The  death  of  the  Rev.  C.  W.  Mateer,  D.D.,  who  spent  most  of  his 
lono-  and  active  life  in  Mission  service  at  this  Station,  removed  a 
steadfast  supporter  of  our  Teng-chou  work.  Although  for  the  past 
few  years  in  Weihsien  and  continuously  active  with  all  his  strenuous 
duties  there  as  translator  and  educator,  he  ever  remembered  our  work 
in  tender  sympathy  and  liberal  support. 

A  year  ago  our  boarding  schools  were  closed  on  account  of 
bubonic  plague  in  this  city  and  we  were  very  anxious  for  a 
time.

Although  there  were  about  200  deaths,  very  few  of  the  Christians 
were  attacked.  The  officials  gave  $120  Mexican,  although  but  little 
was  done  by  them  to  stamp  out  the  disease.  The  people  did  practically 
nothing,  did  not  clean  up  or  make  any  effort  to  kill  off  the  rats. 
There  has  been  no  return  of  the  disease  this  year,  however,  and  we 
have  been  enabled  to  continue  our  work  without  interruption. 

We  wish  to  acknowledge  Miss  Lachlow's  kindness  to  the  members 
of  the  Station  during  her  sojourn  here,  and  to  express  our  thanks  to 
her  for  assistance  rendered  in  the  work. 

The  work  has  gone  on  much  the  same  as  during  the  past 
years ;  yet  in  many  lines  there  is  manifestly  a  steady  growth. 

EVANGELISTIC  WORK.— The  City  Church  continues 
under  the  efficient  services  of  its  Chinese  pastor,  Mr.  Lau ; 
twenty-six  have  been  added  during  the  year.  Some  of  the 
young  people  go  out  every  Sunday  for  part  of  the  day  to 
preach  in  the  villages  near  the  city. 

The  Water  City  work  has  been  under  the  care  of  Dr.  and 
Mrs.  Seymour.  The  Christians  there  have  fitted  up  a  building 
for  school  and  religious  services  at  a  cost  of  $150  Mexican. 

Last  Winter  the  Christians  conducted,  with  the  help  of  the  evangelist, 
an  evening  inquirers'  class  for  two  weeks.  As  a  result  of  the  work 
several  have  been  admitted  into  the  church.  There  are  now  ten  men 
and  two  women  in  this  Water  City  group.  Their  leader,  Mr.  Leu, 
is  now  in  the  Bible  Training  School  in  Chefoo.  During  the  Winter 
he,  with  two  or  three  others,  plans  to  go  on  an  evangelistic  trip  to  the 
islands  north  of  Teng-chou.  They  offer  to  give  their  time  for  twenty 
days  and  the  use  of  their  boats  for  the  journey,  and  ask  only  a  little 
help  for  their  food.  Being  fishermen  by  trade,  we  hope  they  now 
become  true  fishermen  of  men  and  lead  many  to  Christ.  They  main- 
tain a  weekly  prayer  meeting  and  Sunday  evening  services.  Elder  Li, 
the  evangelist,  and  his  family  still  reside  in  the  street  chapel  and  are 
doing  steady  and  faithful  work. 

City  Museum  and  Street  Chapel. — In  the  museum  and  street 
chapel  on  the  main  city  street  the  attendance  reported  for  the 
year  is  12,575.  This  work  is  largely  seed-sowing,  but  it 
bears  fruit  later,  both  in  the  city  and  the  country  districts. 

Country  Work. — In  our  country  field  we  have  thirty  out- 
stations  or  places  where  the  Christians  meet  for  worship,  with 
500  communicants.  This  work  is  under  Mr.  Irwin's  care. 
Although  it  is  scattered  over  parts  of  five  or  six  counties,  the 
large  circuits  are  slowly  filling  in  and  are  becoming  better  con- 
nected than  in  former  years. 

In  the  district  south  of  Teng-chou  City,  a  new  church  was  organized 
this  Spring  with  108  members.  This  is  the  first  church  fully  organized 
in  this  county  of  Perglai  outside  of  Teng-chou  City.  Special  services 
were  held  for  a  few  days  at  that  time  which  were  very  helpful. 
Monthly  union  meetings  have  been  continued  in  this  district  and  the 
attendance  has  been  very  good.  Special  meetings  were  held  at  Kin 
Rai,  in  the  Lai  Choofu  field,  for  a  week  last  Winter  and  the  church 
was  greatly  strengthened.  Dissensions  were  healed  and  thirty-three 
were  added  to  the  church. 


118  EAST  SHANTUNG— TENG-CHOU. 

The  Ning  Kia  Church  is  also  growing.  A  new  out-station 
with  a  boys'  school  has  been  added  in  the  district  near  Pastor 
Sens'  home.  The  churches  are  all  making  efforts  to  call  and 
support  native  pastors  and  the  work  for  the  most  part  is 
encouraging.  Mr.  Irwin  visited  all  these  out-stations  during 
the  year,  most  of  them  two  or  three  times,  holding  special 
meetings,  examining  inquirers,  conducting  Communion  ser- 
vices, etc.  Mrs.  Wight,  with  a  Bible  woman  and  helpers,  also 
made  a  long  visit  through  these  districts. 

We  have  only  thirteen  native  evangehsts  and  two  colporteurs  in  all 
these  large  districts,  including  also  the  city  work.  One  of  the  col- 
porteurs is  an  elder  in  the  Ning  Kia  Church  who  has  devoted  most 
of  his  time  gratuitously  to  this  work  for  several  years.  Some  of 
the  Christians  and  students  also  devote  a  little  time  each  year  to  some 
form  of  evangelistic  work.  The  evangelists  for  the  most  part  are 
earnest  and  are  doing  faithful  work,  but  are  insufficient  to  reach  all 
these  thousands  of  villages  and  great  markets. 

The  Care  of  the  Churches. — During  the  year  104  have  been 
added  to  the  churches  in  the  country  and  26  in  the  city,  mak- 
ing 130  in  all,  a  larger  number  than  during  any  former  single 
year. 

The  care  of  the  churches  is  no  small  task,  but  we  are  often 
encouraged  by  the  life  of  some  aged  saint  or  little  event  in  the 
work.  At  one  remote  out-station  resides  a  woman  ninety-eight  years 
of  age,  whose  son  was  for  years  a  pastor  in  one  of  the  Wei-hsien 
churches.  Although  nearly  blind  she  is  cheerful  and  steadfast  in  the 
faith.  At  Ning  Kia  an  earnest  Christian  passed  suddenly  away,  ex- 
claiming as  he  fell  dying:  "Jesus  has  come!  Elder  Ning  has  come!"' 
For  years  the  wife  of  this  old  Elder  Ning  had  stood  against  Christianity. 
This  Spring  we  had  the  joy  of  baptizing  her  and  her  daughter-in-law 
and  grandson's  wife,  three  generations  at  once.  Her  great-grandson, 
the  fourth  generation  in  this  family,  is  also  to  be  baptized. 

Growth  of  Our  Work. — A  few  figures  will  show  the  prog- 
ress of  this  Station. 

In  1894  there  were  but  285  members  in  connection  with  all  the  Teng- 
chou  work,  including  the  three  churches  in  Ping-tu.  Now  we  have 
a  membership  of  783,  exclusive  of  the  three  Ping-tu  churches,  which 
a  few  years  ago  with  195  members  and  eleven  schools  were  all  trans- 
ferred to  Tsing-tau  Station.  Many  college  students  and  others  were 
also  transferred  to  Wei-hsien  and  elsewhere.  During  these  fourteen 
years  1,107  rnembers  have  been  added  on  confession  of  faith.  This 
year  we  received  130  and  since  the  Boxer  uprising  647.  There  has  been 
considerable  increase  in  the  amount  of  native  contributions  and  for 
the  most  part  the  work  has  gone  steadily  forward,  for  which  we  thank 
God  and  take  courage. 

Woman's  Work. — Miss  Snodgrass  has  been  missed  in  the 
women's  work.  The  Bible  women  have  been  faithful  and 
Mrs.  Seymour  and  Mrs.  Wight  have  done  what  visiting  they 
could.    The  woman's  prayer  meeting  is  now  held  in  the  church 


EAST  SHANTUNG— TENG-CHOU.  119 

and  attendance  has  been  very  good.  In  the  Spring  special 
meetings  for  women  were  held  with  good  results.  The 
Christians  manifest  special  interest.  Some  of  the  women  have 
been  quite  active  in  Christian  work,  going  out  of  their  own 
accord  to  find  people  and  bring  them  to  church. 

Sunday-school  Work. — The  Sunday-schools  in  the  city  have 
continued  under  Dr.  Seymour's  direction.  During  most  of  the 
year  there  are  two  divisions,  the  primary  and  adult  schools 
meeting  at  different  hours,  as  the  church  could  not  seat  so 
many  at  once,  there  being  often  nearly  500. 

Dr.  Seymour  has  prepared  the  primary  Sunday-school  lessons,  of 
which  about  2,000  are  used  in  the  various  places.  Sunday-schools 
have  also  been  conducted  in  most  of  the  country  out-stations  and  nearly 
600  total  attendance  reported.  Picture  cards  have  been  used  to  attract 
the  children  and  with  very  good  results.  A  few  of  the  schools  are 
quite  well  organized  and  the  attendance  very  good,  but  a  number  are 
not  yet  what  they  ought  to  be.  We  hope  to  get  more  accomplished 
along  these  lines  this  coming  year.  The  schools  were  all  examined 
on  the  first  half  of  the  year's  lessons  this  Fall,  and  their  work  graded 
and  reported  to  Presbytery. 

Special  Evangelistic  Work. — It  was  planned  last  year  to 
make  a  special  evangelistic  effort  to  reach  non-Christians  in  as 
many  villages  as  possible. 

Owing  to  so  many  other  things  on  hand  we  fell  short  of  our  hopes, 
and  yet  considerable  was  accomplished,  not  only_  by  the  regular 
evangelists  in  their  own  districts,  but  special  combined  efforts  were 
made  in  several  districts  by  the  students  and  leading  Christians.  In 
the  district  south  of  Teng-chou  City,  Mr.  Hie,  the  evangelist  there, 
with  some  other  helpers  and  four  of  our  High  School  boys,  seven 
men  in  all,  spent  three  weeks  in  special  effort,  visiting  forty-seven 
villages  and  preaching  to  about  4,000  people.  A  similar  campaign  was 
made  in  the  Lai  Choo-fu  field  by  the  ihelpers  and  leaders  there;  four 
evangelists  and  some  others  preaching  in  fifty-five  villages  to  over  3,000 
hearers. 

In  all  during  the  year  our  helpers  have  preached  in  about 
500  villages  and  markets,  and  the  Gospel  has  been  heard  by 
about  20,000  people  in  the  country,  besides  the  12,575  who 
visited  the  museum  and  street  chapel  in  the  city.  Many  of 
these  seemed  glad  to  hear  the  truth,  and  we  hope  and  pray 
that  this  seed-sowing  will  soon  bear  much  fruit. 

EDUCATIONAL  WORK.— The  Boys'  High  School  is 
under  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Irwin's  care.  The  attendance  is  twenty- 
three.  There  are  also  fourteen  boys  in  the  English  School 
who  take  their  Chinese  and  Western  branches  with  the  High 
School  boys,  making  a  total  of  thirty-seven.  Last  year  six 
boys  finished  their  course  and  three  entered  the  second  year 
of  the  Arts  College  at  Wei-hsien,  Five  others  are  teaching  in 
our  day-schools. 


120  EAST  SHANTUNG— TENG-CHOU. 

The  students  continue  their  Y.  M.  C.  A.  work  and  conduct  their 
own  Sunday  meetings.  Some  of  them  teach  in  the  primary  Sunday- 
school,  and  a  number  preach  on  the  streets  or  in  the  villages.  Most 
of  the  boys  are  Christians,  six  having  united  with  the  church  this 
year.  Our  teachers,  both  graduates  of  the  college,  have  done  faithful 
work.  Two  more  of  the  students  have  finished  their  course  and  expect 
to  enter  the  Arts  College  at  Wei-hsien  next  year,  and  three  of  the 
English  pupils  will  enter  the  Anglo-Chinese  School  in  Chefoo. 

Girls'  High  School. — Mrs.  Wight,  who  is  in  charge,  writes : 

It  was  a  serious  problem  whether  we  should  open  the  boarding 
school  until  we  were  certain  there  would  be  no  recurrence  of  the 
plague.  Finally  it  was  decided  to  allow  those  to  come  whose  parents 
could  be  quickly  notified  in  case  of  danger  and  twenty-eight  responded. 
There  has  been  no  plague,  and  now  forty-three  are  in  attendance  and 
work  is  going  on  as  usual. 

The  girls  show  earnest  Christian  activity.  Every  Sunday  evening 
they  gather  in  my  sitting  room  and  plan  and  pray  for  work  and  for 
absent  classmates.  Their  "Win.  One"  prayer  circle  leaflet  has  been 
printed  and  used  not  only  in  Shantung,  but  even  in  Canada  and  Florida. 
Each  girl  has  one  Christian  and  one  worker  for  whom  she  prays. 
The  girls  have  taken  active  part  in  Sunday-school,  in  Christian  En- 
deavor and  woman's  prayer  meetings.  This  year  we  kept  the  anniversary 
of  last  year's  revival,  when  so  many  had  received  such  wonderful 
assurance  of  pardon.  About  one-third  of  the  work  of  the  school  is 
done  by  Seniors.  During  the  year  a  gift  was  received  from  the  Madi- 
son Avenue  Church  of  a  stove  and  a  boiler  for  the  Girls'  High  School. 

Day-schools. — In  the  city  we  have  two  schools  for  boys  and 
one  for  girls,  with  a  total  of  fifty-six  boys  and  thirteen  girls. 
The  two  boys'  schools  are  under  Mrs.  Seymour's  direction. 
The  Sanpai  Kio  School  of  thirty-three  pupils  is  well  organ- 
ized, being  taught  by  Mr.  Hu,  a  college  graduate,  and  assisted 
by  one  of  the  young  men  from  our  Boys'  High  School.  In 
the  country  we  have  thirteen  schools  for  boys  with  148  pupils 
and  four  for  girls  with  forty-three  pupils — in  all  fifteen  schools 
for  boys  with  204  pupils  and  five  for  girls  with  fifty-six  pupils. 

These  schools  are  under  an  experienced  school  inspector  directed  by 
Mr.  Irwin,  and  most  of  them  are  doing  very  good  work.  Our  great- 
est difficulty  is  to  get  efficient  teachers  trained  in  modern  methods  of 
teaching.  Among  our  best  teachers  are  our  own  Boys'  High  School 
graduates.  One  of  these  schools  is  entirely  self-supporting.  One 
school  has  sixteen  pupils,  six  of  whom  were  received  into  the  church 
at  one  Communion  season  this  year. 

Teachers'  Conference, — During  the  Summer  vacation  the 
Station  held  three  weeks  of  conference  and  classwork  with 
the  evangelists  and  teachers.  Some  of  the  girls  and  boys 
from  our  High  Schools  also  attended,  making  a  class  of  about 
forty. 

Dr.  Hayes  came  to  Teng-chou  for  this  special  work.  He  gave 
lectures  on  the  theory  and  practice  of  teaching,  on  Hebrews,  and  the 
Life  of  Christ,  three  classes  each  day.     Mr.     Irwin  had  charge  of  the 


EAST  SHANTUNG— CHEFOO.  121 

class  and  also  taught  a  part  of  the  Life  of  Christ,  and  conducted  the 
conference  discussions  on  practical  themes  regarding  school  work. 
Dr.  Seymour  gave  them  a  course  of  lectures  in  practical  physiology 
and  hygiene,  and  Mrs.  Wight  and  others  also  took  part.  These 
Summer  classes  greatly  help  and  stimulate  our  teachers  and  helpers 
and  enable  them  to  do  more  efficient  work. 

jMEDICAL  work. — In  hospital  work  there  has  been  an 
advance  in  several  ways,  though  the  number  of  in-patients  is 
a  Httle  less  than  last  year. 

The  ward  fixed  up  a  year  ago  in  the  old  college  building  has  been 
used  for  several  cases  which  would  scarcely  have  been  received  at  all 
without  this  clean  ward  with  its  clean  beds.  A  number  of  difficult 
and  important  operations  were  performed.  In  all  there  were  fifty- 
eight  in-patients  and  7,551  out-patients.  Our  medical  assistant,  Dr. 
Ho,  went  to  the  Yale  Alission  in  Hunan,  where  he  gets  two  or  three 
times  as  much  salary  as  here.  Dr.  Seymour  has  also  conducted  a 
nurses'  class  since  last  Spring,  composed  of  four  women  and  one  man, 
two  hours  a  week  in  physiology  and  nursing.  This  is  important,  for 
when  these  women  are  well  trained  as  nurses  there  is  a  great  work 
for  them  to  do  among  their  suffering  sisters. 

An  evangelist  preaches  to  those  who  come  to  the  dispensary  for 
treatment,  and  religious  instruction  is  given  to  those  who  are  in  the 
hospital. 

The  Chinese  Christians  are  growing-  in  their  sense  of  duty 
to  propagate  their  own  work.  They  plan  more  for  them- 
selves, take  the  lead  better,  and  in  a  good  spirit  assume 
responsibilities  they  would  not  have  thought  of  some  years 
ago.  They  have  largely  increased  their  contributions.  They 
are  making  efforts  to  call  and  support  their  own  native  pastors. 
These  are  hopeful  signs. 

The  Station  report  closes : 

We  thank  the  Board  for  their  many  expressions  of  interest  and 
sympathy  in  our  work.  We  thank  the  home  churches  and  friends  for 
their  prayers  and  support.  We  thank  the  Lord  for  the  privilege  of 
taking  part  in  this  important  work ;  and  we  earnestly  seek  for  it  the 
sympathy  and  prayers  of  the  home  churches,  and  pray  that  the  Lord 
will  grant  ever  increasing  blessings  upon  this  large  and  needy  field. 


CHEFOO  STATION. 

The  arrival  of  Dr.  and  Mrs.  O.  F.  Hills  in  January  to 
begin  the  long  desired  medical  work  was  in  answer  to  many 
prayers.  The  transfer  of  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Wells  to  Tsing-tau,  to 
fill  the  place  of  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Davies,  deprived  Chefoo  of  the 
valuable  services  of  Mrs.  Wells  in  the  city  work,  and,  of 
course,  Mr.  Wells  could  not  give  as  much  time  to  that  part 
of  the  Chefoo  country  field  he  had  in  charge. 

EVANGELISTIC  WORK.— Seventy  thousand  people  at- 
tended the   street  chapel   and  museum   during  the  year.     At 


122  EAST  SHANTUNG— CHEFOO. 

the  Chinese  New  Year  there  were  special  days  for  women  and 
children  on  which  over  5,000  visitors  attended. 

The  effects  of  the  work  at  the  chapel  were  noticeable  in  the  increased 
friendliness  in  many  places  in  the  country  where  evangelistic  work  was 
carried  on.  A  night  school  has  been  organized  at  the  chapel,  to  get  hold 
of  the  young  people  in  the  neighborhood.  Rev.  Tung  teaches  them 
science  and  gives  them  religious  teaching.  A  number  of  women  in  the 
city  near  Temple  Hill  have  been  under  instruction  by  Mrs.  Corbett  and 
the  Bible  woman,  Mrs.  Chang. 

Special  union  evangelistic  services  were  held  in  Chefoo  dur- 
ing the  Chinese  New  Year  season,  at  which  there  are  special 
opportunities  for  reaching  the  people.  Dr.  Corbett,  Mr.  Corn- 
well  and  Pastor  Wang,  of  our  church,  together  with  bands 
of  preachers  and  local  native  Christians,  carried  on  an  evan- 
gelistic campaign  in  the  country  districts  within  a  radius  of 
100  miles  from  Chefoo.  Two  thousand  six  hundred  villages 
were  reached  in  this  way  and  many  thousands  heard  the 
Gospel  message.  Everywhere  the  people  were  friendly  and 
listened  with  interest.  An  effort  was  also  made  to  reach  the 
coolies  returning  from  South  Africa. 

Sunday  services  were  opened  in  the  former  C.  I.  M.  Chapel 
on  the  western  outskirts  of  the  town,  in  order  to  reach  the 
people  of  that  vicinity.  Mr.  Cornwell  made  two  visits  to 
Vladivostock,  with  a  view  to  opening  work  among  the  300,000 
Chinese  living  in  that  region.  A  chapel  has  been  opened  and 
a  preacher  placed  in  charge.  This  work  was  inaugurated  by 
the  Federated  Churches  of  Shantung. 

A  Chinese  preacher  and  his  wife  have  settled  in  a  large 
non-Christian  community  in  Dr.  Corbett's  field  in  order  to 
reach  the  people  there. 

Pastoral  Work. — 

The  clerical  members  of  the  Station  shepherded  the  church  in  the 
city  and  the  churches  and  groups  of  native  Christians  in  the  country 
districts.  Steady  progress  is  noticeable  although  there  has  not  been 
as  large  an  ingathering  as  formerly. 

The  debt  on  the  Chefoo  Church,  amounting  to  $1,000  Mexican,  was 
cleared  off. 

A  new  church  building  was  erected  at  one  of  the  out-stations  by 
the  church  members  at  a  cost  of  $700  Mexican. 

Sunday-schools. — Dr.  Elterich  was  placed  in  charge  of  the 
Temple  Hill  Sunday-school  with  its  more  than  200  members, 
and  Mr.  Booth  released  to  organize  a  Sunday-school  for  non- 
Christian  children  on  the  streets  of  Chefoo. 

The  average  attendance  is  130.  A  great  deal  of  good  has  been  ac- 
complished by  this  Sunday-school,  as  many  homes  have  thus  been 
opened  to  the  Gospel  message  that  had  not  been  reached  before,  and 
an  opportunity  afforded  for  training  our  school-boys  in  Christian 
service. 


EAST  SHANTUNG— CHEFOO.  123 

The  Sunday-school  for  women  and  girls  under  Mrs.  Corbett's 
charge  was  also  well  attended.  Throughout  our  country  out-stations 
Sunday-schools  were  organized  and  supplied  with  lesson  helps. 

EDUCATIONAL  WORK.— Attendance  at  the  Anglo- 
Chinese  School  was  127  the  first  term,  but  at  the  close  of  the 
term  a  case  of  discipline  led  a  large  number  of  students  to 
rebel  and  start  an  institution  of  their  own.  The  attendance  at 
our  school  fell  to  fifty,  but  is  now  gradually  increasing  again. 
The  Station  passed  new  regulations  for  the  government  and 
discipline  of  the  school,  and  there  is  a  marked  change  for  the 
better  in  the  deportment  of  the  students. 

The  students'  Y.  M.  C.  A.  has  been  well  attended.  Practically  all 
of  the  older  Christian  students  teach  Sunday-school  classes.  Many 
sessions  were  held  which  all  the  Christian  students  attended,  also 
quite  a  number  who  are  not  yet  church  members.  The  non-Christian 
students  have  been  more  or  less  reached  by  personal  efforts  on  the 
part  of  the  principal,  Mr.  Booth. 

The  Chefoo  High  School  has  had  an  attendance  of  over 
eighty  boys,  of  whom  fifty  were  boarders.  As  the  regular 
dormitories  were  inadequate  to  accommodate  so  many,  a  num- 
ber of  outbuildings  on  another  compound  had  to  be  made  use 
of.  Plans  are  being  made  to  secure  more  land  and  buildings. 
The  tuition  fees  have  been  better  paid  than  usual. 

One  case  of  small-pox  caused  concern,  but  there  were  no  further 
cases,  and  the  health  of  the  school  has  been  very  good.  Efficient 
work  was  done  by  both  teachers  and  students.  Three  boys  entered  the 
Arts  College  at  Wei-hsien  this  Spring,  and  seventeen  are  getting  ready 
for  the  entrance  examinations. 

Mrs.  Corbett's  school  had  an  attendance  of  fifty. 

The  school  was  handicapped  by  lack  of  good  teachers,  the  most 
efficient  one  having  gone  to  Peking  to  complete  her  education.  Plans 
are  being  made  for  the  training  of  kindergartners  in  connection  with 
the  school. 

The  School  for  the  Deaf,  of  which  Mrs.  A.  Mills  is  principal, 
assisted  by  Miss  A.  E.  Carter,  closed  its  first  decade  as  a 
separate  work  in  February.  The  plant  is  valued  at  $i5,cxxd 
Mexican,  and  is  free  from  debt. 

In  the  boys'  department  there  are  twenty  pupils.  Four  of  the  oldest 
were  recently  placed  in  good  positions.  Two  of  them  are  learning 
to  set  type  in  a  Christian  printing  establishment  in  Chefoo. 

A  department  for  girls  was  opened  in  September,  1907,  under  the 
care  of  Miss  Carter.  She  is  assisted  by  two  j'oung  women  who  are 
graduates  from  the  Teng-chou  Girls'  High  School,  and  are  in  training 
for  teaching  the  deaf.  There  are  now  girls  in  this  department  of  whom 
one  is  not  only  deaf  but  also  blind.  A  number  of  applications  had  to 
be  refused  as  there  were  not  a  sufficient  number  of  scholarships  in 
the  school,  and  the  parents  or  guardians  were  unable  to  pay  the  full 
fees. 


124  EAST  SHANTUNG— CHEFOO. 

The  twenty-seven  pupils  represent  seven  provinces  in  China,  and 
one  pupil  comes  from  Korea.  The  Methodist  Mission  in  Pyeng  Yang, 
Korea,  has  selected  a  man  and  his  wife  from  among  their  native 
Christians  for  the  purpose  of  coming  to  the  Deaf  School  to  acquire 
training,  and  later  to  open  a  school  for  deaf  Korean  boys  and  girls  in 
a  school  to  be  supported  by  the  Methodist  Mission. 

A  noteworthy  attempt  is  now  being  made  to  present  the 
need  and  importance  of  schools  for  the  deaf  to  the  Chinese 
Government.  Mrs.  Mills  is  visiting  Peking,  Paoting-fu,  Han- 
kow and  other  leading  cities  for  this  purpose.  She  has  given 
practical  demonstration  that  the  deaf  can  be  taught  to  the 
President  of  the  Board  of  Education  at  Peking  and  to  a 
number  of  other  prominent  officials,  among  them  the  Viceroy 
of  Chili.  As  a  result  plans  have  been  made  to  open  a  school 
for  the  deaf  at  Paoting-fu,  and  a  teacher  trained  in  the  school 
at  Chefoo,  together  with  one  of  the  older  deaf  boys,  will  be 
placed  in  charge.  It  is  hoped  that  schools  for  the  deaf  will 
be  gradually  opened  in  all  the  provinces  of  China, 

Plans  are  being  made  to  secure  an  endowment  for  the  school  of 
$25,000  gold,  and  a  number  of  gifts  towards  it  have  already  been 
given  or  promised.  It  was  requested  that  part  of  the  endowment  be 
known  as  "The  Phoebe  Hinsdale  Brown  Memorial" ;  as  Mrs.  Brown, 
mother  of  one  of  the  donors,  was  the  mother  of  Dr.  S.  R.  Brown, 
whom  she  dedicated  to  foreign  mission  work  before  any  Board  of 
Foreign  Missions  was  formed  in  America.  She  herself  taught  the  deaf 
three  years  in  New  York  before  coming  to  China. 

Training  Classes. — Several  training  classes  were  held.  One 
was  opened  in  the  Spring  to  train  women  for  Christian  work. 

Ten  attended  the  class,  which  was  five  months  in  session.  It  was 
under  the  charge  of  Mrs.  J.  McMullan  and  Pastor  Wang.  Mrs.  Mc- 
Mullan  generously  provided  the  means  to  carry  on  this  class,  which 
required  an  outlay  of  $300  Mexican.  During  the  session  Mrs.  Mc- 
Mullan took  the  women  out  frequently  to  the  villages  on  the  outskirts 
of  Chefoo  for  evangelistic  work,  and  since  their  return  home  they 
have  been  doing  good  work  in  their  districts. 

In  October  a  training  class  for  men  was  opened  on  Temple 
Hill  to  fit  them  for  Christian  work. 

Twenty-five  selected  men  attended  this  class,  which  was  in  charge 
of  Dr.  Corbett  and  Mr.  McMullan,  the  latter  generously  providing  the 
funds.  The  estimated  cost  for  carrying  on  the  class  and  providing 
salaries  between  sessions  when  the  members  do  evangelistic  work  will 
be  about  $1,400  Mexican  a  year.  We  are  very  grateful  to  Mr.  and  Mrs. 
McMullan  for  their  generous  assistance. 

A  Summer  class  was  held  for  preachers  and  class  leaders,  in 
charge  of  Drs.  Corbett  and  Elterich  and  Mr.  Cornwell.  About 
thirty  men  attended. 

Mrs.  Nevius  had  a  class  of  sixteen  in  the  Spring  in  Roman- 
ization   and   Bible   study,   and   had  another  class   of  eighteen 


THE    REV.    CALVIN    W.    MATEER,    D.D.

in  the  Fall.     Mrs.  Cornwell  assists  her  in  teaching  the  Life 
of  Christ. 

LITERARY  WORK.— Mrs.  Nevius  is  preparing  a  "Com- 
mentary on  Galatians." 

She  has  also  Romanized  a  selection  of  the  Psalms,  and  is  at  present 
Romanizing  a  "Treatise  on  Perseverance,"  "The  INIemoir  of  Rose 
Miller"  and  the  "Story  of  the  Swiss  Boy."  She  expects  to  have 
another  Gospel  and  perhaps  two  or  more  of  the  Epistles  ready  to  be 
printed  before  long. 

MEDICAL  WORK.— Dr.  Hills  took  charge  of  the  supplies 
for  the  dispensary  and  exercised  a  general  supervision  of  the 
medical  work.  Dr.  Chang  attended  the  patients  which  came 
to  the  dispensary,  the  number  being  over  4,000.  The  build- 
ing of  a  hospital  is  not  being  pressed  while  Dr.  Hills  is  study- 
ing the  language. 

TSING-TAU  STATION. 

There  have  been  many  changes  in  the  personnel.  Miss 
Yaughan  was  absent  on  furlough  all  the  year.  Mr.  and  Mrs. 
Davies  were  obliged  to  return  to  America  in  April  by  the 
ill  health  of  Mrs.  Davies,  and  to  the  great  regret  of  the 
Board  and  the  Mission  this  valued  family  has  resigned,  as 
physicians  felt  that  Mrs.  Davies'  health  had  become  so  im- 
paired that  further  residence  in  China  was  out  of  the  ques- 
tion for  an  indefinite  period.  The  loss  of  such  a  strong  and 
•  efficient  missionary  as  Mr.  Davies  is  a  serious  one.  To  fill  this 
vacancy  at  Tsing-tau,  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Mason  Wells  had  to  be 
transferred  from  their  work  in  the  Chefoo  Station  field. 
Dr.  Efifie  B.  Cooper  was  also  gladly  welcomed  from  Chefoo. 
The  Tsing-tau  Station  field  was  considerably  enlarged  at  the 
last  annual  meeting  by  the  transfer  to  it  of  that  part  of  the 
Chefoo  out-station  field  which  can  be  more  conveniently 
worked  from  Tsing-tau. 

It  is  a  great  satisfaction  to  report  that,  after  weary  years 
of  waiting,  property  for  a  Mission  compound  of  our  own  has 
"tieen  acquired.  Rents  are  high  in  Tsing-tau  and  the  house<; 
that  could  be  secured  were  not  well  adapted  to  mission  uses. 
Those  good  friends  of  the  cause,  Mrs.  Hugh  O'Neil,  of  New 
York,  and  Mr.  A.  A.  Hyde,  of  Wichita,  Kansas,  were  the 
largest  donors,  and  smaller  but  valued  gifts  were  made  by  a 
few  other  friends.  A  good  site  has  been  secured,  and  one 
residence  and  a  girls'  school  provided  for.  Two  more  resi- 
dences are  needed  before  the  Station  force  can  be  grouped 
in  the  new  and  better  location. 

Mr.  and  Mrs.  Scott  have  gotten  on  with  language  study  so  that  they 


126  EAST  SHANTUNG— STATISTICS. 

are  able  to  assist  in  the  Sunday-school  and  Mr.  Scott  has  taken  two 
trips  into  the  country.  The  one  in  the  Spring  occupied  two  months, 
during  which  he  and  Mr.  Wells  went  over  the  whole  field  under  the 
care  of  the  Station. 

The  Chinese  brethren  conducted  special  services  in  various 
parts  of  the  district,  often  making-  use  of  the  large  tents 
which  were  taken  from  place  to  place.  The  missionaries  took 
such  parts  as  were  assigned  them  by  the  native  pastor  in 
charge. 

Dr.  Cooper  with  her  Bible  women  also  attended  these  conferences, 
doing  work  among  the  Christian  women.  She  also  held  five  classes 
of  from  ten  to  fourteen  days  each  for  giving  Bible  instruction  to  the 
women  in  the  country,  besides  one  such  class  in  Tsing-tau  and  the 
regular  weekly  meetings  which  she  and  Mrs.  Wells  have  conducted. 

Summer  conferences  were  held  at  Sin-tan  for  the  school 
teachers  of  the  district  and  at  Kaomi  City  for  the  evangelistic 
helpers. 

The  two  boarding  schools,  one  for  boys  at  Meichin  and  one 
for  girls  at  Ta-shin-tan,  together  with  the  twenty  village 
primary  schools  aided  by  the  Mission,  have  been  visited  and 
examined  by  the  school  inspector  and  Mr.  Wells. 

The  pastoral  oversight  of  the  churches  has  been  in  the  hands 
of  four  Chinese  pastors.  Revs.  Han,  Li,  Djao  and  Swen, 
assisted  by  native  evangelists.  These  evangelists  have  visited 
about  a  thousand  villages  where  they  have  preached  to  the 
people  on  the  streets,  distributed  tracts  and  sold  copies  of  the 
Gospels. 

A  number  of  inquirers'  classes  were  held  in  the  Fall,  and 
the  evangelists  assisted  the  pastors  in  this  work.

'WEI-HSIEN  STATION. 

CHANGES  DURING  THE  YEAR.— The  necessity  of  giv- 
ing Tsining-chou  some  aid  resulted  in  the  transfer  of  Mr. 
Field  to  Tsining-chou.  In  October,  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Fitch  re- 
turned from  furlough  to  resume  their  usual  work,  and  Mr. 
and  Mrs.  Chandler  came  to  the  College  staff. 

At  the  close  of  the  year,  in  the  very  midst  of  annual  meeting, 
the  Nestor  of  the  Station,  the  Rev.  Calvin  W.  Mateer,  D.D.,  LL.D", 
passed  away.  Some  one  writing  of  the  missionaries  who  flourished 
in     the     early     and     middle     decades     of     the     nineteenth     century 

127 


128  WEST  SHANTUNG— WEI-HSIEN. 

has  said,  "There  were  giants  in  those  days."  Many  of  them  were 
men  of  vast  attainments,  great  brain  power,  keen  insight,  mighty  faith, 
and  prodigious  industry.  Of  Dr.  Mateer  it  could  be  truly  said,  he  was 
one  of  the  last  of  these  giants.  He  did  not  belong  to  us,  but  to  all 
China.  The  Chinese  Church  mourns  him  as  deeply  as  do  we ;  espe- 
cially is  this  true  of  his  old  pupils.  It  was  his  constant  prayer  to  be 
spared  to  complete  the  revision  of  the  Mandarin  version  of  the  Bible, 
as  he  was  chairman  of  the  Committee  on  Revision.  The  New  Testa- 
ment had  been  completed  and  Genesis  and  thirty-four  of  the  Psalms, 
when  God  bade  him  leave  his  task  to  others,  and  receive  from  his 
Master  the  crown  of  glory. 

As  to  general  conditions,  without  doubt  the  most  serious  is 
the  shortage  of  crops.  The  rains  of  the  year  have  been  much 
below  the  average,  and  very  irregular  in  distribution.  Spots 
here  and  there  have,  fair  crops,  but  others  are  in  the  midst  of 
famine  conditions. 

The  Tsingtau  Daily  states  that  34  of  loS  counties  of  the  province 
have  very  bad  harvests.  This  means  great  suffering,  many  refugees, 
and  we  fear  there  will  be  many  to  starve  before  another  harvest  can 
be  gathered.  These  conditions  will,  of  course,  affect  our  Christians' 
ability  to  give,  or  meet  obligations  already  made,  and  so  must  con- 
stitute one  of  the  financial  difficulties  of  our  Station  the  coming  year. 
Along  one  or  two  rivers,  a  sudden  flood  in  August  washed  away  thirty 
villages,  involving  quite  a  number  of  Christians.  Here  ]\Ir.  Mateer 
has  already  given  some  private  relief.  As  yet  there  is  hardly  sufficient 
data  at  hand  to  determine  whether  general  famine  relief  will  be  needed ; 
but  we  hope  not. 

EVANGELISTIC— -A  total  of  751  days  has  been  spent  in 
itinerating.  Campaigns  have  been  carried  on  in  a  number  of 
places.  Mr.  Mateer,  with  a  band  of  helpers,  spent  fifty  days 
last  Fall  in  meetings  of  this  kind. 

Part  of  the  day  was  given  to  services,  and  then  the  Christians  broke 
up  into  groups,  with  the  helpers  as  leaders,  and  out  to  the  surround- 
ing villages  and  preached  on  the  streets.  Mr.  Fitch  did  some  work 
in  which  Christians  and  helpers  united  for  village  preaching  previous 
to  the  revival.  In  all  cases  considerable  numbers  came,  and  almost 
without  exception  they  were  respectful  and  interested  listeners. 
Numberless  expressions  of  approval  were  heard  on  every  hand. 

As  to  results  in  actual  conversions,  they  are  not  always  immediate. 
The  number  uniting  with  the  Church  is  smaller  than  it  was  two  or 
three  years  ago.  The  Chinese  are  cautious  about  adopting  a  new  way 
of  thinking,  and  one  occasionally  hears  that  the  memory  of  the  Boxer 
year  still  lies  heavy  on  some  minds.  However,  careful  inquiry  shows 
that,  while  conditions  vary,  the  disposition  to  listen,  interestedly,  is 
quite  general.  Marked  readiness  to  hear  is  certainly  an  encouraging 
feature  in  the  situation,  and  God's  spirit  is  able  to  sweep  all  barriers 
away. 

One  church  which  was  disbanded  a  few  years  ago  has  so 
far  recovered  spiritual  tone  as  to  warrant  its  reorganization. 
One  young  man  of  fine  spirit  was  ordained  by  Presbytery  to 
the  ministry  and  settled  over  a  charge.    Two  were  licensed  to 


WEST  SHANTUNG— WEI-HSIEN.  129 

preach  and  two  others  were  received  under  the  care  of  Pres- 
bytery. 

There  has  been  no  serious  friction  between  Christians  and  non- 
Christians  during  the  year.  Tliere  have  been  a  few  instances  where 
the  Christians  have  tried  to  have  the  pastor  interfere  under  the  cry  of 
"persecution,"  but  we  have  not  done  so,  and  after-results  justified  the 
hands-off  policy.  There  has  been  one  case  of  trouble  with  the  Catholics, 
which  would  have  been  easily  settled,  had  not  a  rather  irascible  foreign 
priest  fomented  trouble  instead  of  pacifying  it. 

In  the  field  of  primary  education,  the  schools  have  been  in- 
creasing in  numbers  and  in  attendance.  There  are  now  760 
pupils  in  fifty-five  schools.  The  relative  help  these  schools 
receive  from  the  Board  has  diminished  from  two-thirds  to  less 
than  two-fifths.  This  is  a  fine  showing.  The  Union  Normal 
School  at  Chingchowfu  is  furnishing  an  increasing  number  of 
well-qualified  teachers  and  they  are  improving  the  quality  of 
work  done  in  the  schools. 

The  Girls'  Primary  Schools  (boarding)  are  the  same  both 
in  number  of  schools  and  of  pupils  as  last  year.  Here  again 
Dad  crops  are  a  disturbing  factor,  preventing  the  opening  of 
two  more  schools,  and  larger  attendance  in  all  schools. 

Report  is  that  this  Fall  will  see  many  stepping  out  because  of 
increase  of  expense.  The  patrons  in  our  schools  now  must  pay  one- 
half  of  the  teachers'  wages,  besides  all  incidentals,  books,  etc.  In 
fact  everything  but  one-half  the  salary,  and  i,Soo  small  cash  (90  cents 
Mexican)  per  month  for  boarding  pupils.  Improvement  is  noted  in 
the  teaching  methods  in  the  girls'  schools  also.  These  schools  have 
been  under  Mrs.  Mateer's  efficient  care. 

Mrs.  Chalfant  reports  the  Girls'  High  School  in  satisfactory 
condition. 

Eleven  girls  were  graduated  in  June,  seven  of  whom  were  from  the 
Wei-hsien  field,  three  from  East  Shantung,  and  one  from  Tsinan-fu. 
Of  the  present  attendance,  thirteen  out  of  sixty-two  come  from  out- 
side the  Wei-hsien  field.  A  number  of  the  graduates  are  teaching  in 
other  Stations  and  Missions,  showing  that  the  school  is  of  importance 
to  our  own  and  other  Missions  beyond  the  bounds  of  this  Station. 
The  education  of  women  is  growing  in  importance  in  the  eyes  of  this 
people. 

The  Point  Breeze  Academy  for  Boys  has  had  a  good  year. 

Seventy  pupils  are  all  that  can  be  accommodated  with  the  present 
dormitory  space.  This  Academy  is  the  only  road  by  which  the  sons 
of  our  Christian  constituency  of  over  5,000  can  reach  the  College. 
Not  over  twenty-eight  new  pupils  can  be  received  each  year,  or  an 
average  of  one  every  other  year  from  each  of  our  country  schools. 
Our  Mission  has  not  near  the  provision  for  boys  of  this  grade  that 
the  other  Mission  of  our  Educational  Union  has,  and  we  are  threatened 
with  the  situation  where  Presbyterians  can  furnish  less  than  half  the 
number  of  pupils  in  the  Union  College  classes  because  our  educa- 
tional scheme  is  weak  at  the  middle  school  stage.  Hence  the  problem 
5 


130  WEST  SHANTUNG— WEI-HSIEN. 

of  expansion  is  important.  In  this  we  are  embarrassed  at  the  outset 
by  limitation  of  grounds.  And  the  present  location  of  the  Academy 
is  such  that  we  cannot  add  to  them. 

The  spiritual  condition  of  the  Academy  gives  great  satisfac- 
tion. During  the  year,  all  boys  who  were  not  already  Chris- 
tians applied  to  be  received  into  the  Church. 

The  Academy  has  been  enlarged  from  forty-five  to  seventy 
in  four  years  without  any  additional  demand  on  the  Board, 
by  increase  in  fees  alone,  a  record  which  is  very  gratifying. 

But  a  serious  question  enters  here.  This  rise  in  fees  is  shearing  off 
a  larger  proportion  of  the  Christians  from  the  hope  of  being  able 
to  get  an  education  for  their  children,  and  this  lower  middle  class  is 
one  with  many  promising  sons,  who  would  be  of  value  to  the  church 
and  society.  It  is  true  that  it  is  impossible  that  all  should  be  given 
higher  education,  but  it  is  a  question  whether  some  scheme  of  scholar- 
ships should  not  be  devised,  whereby  some  bright  boys  from  good 
families  of  the  financially  poorer  should  still  be  able  to  get  a  good 
education. 

Managers  of  schools  in  all  countries  have  their  financial 
troubles  and  no  foresight  can  anticipate  drought,  short  crops 
and  famine  prices.  Both  our  schools  found  themselves  in 
serious  embarrassment  this  year  and  they  were  threatened 
with  forced  closing  long  before  the  terms  were  ended.  In 
these  circumstances,  we  are  specially  grateful  to  the  Point 
Breeze  Church,  of  Pittsburgh,  and  to  Mr.  Edward  B.  Sturges, 
of  Scranton,  Pa.,  for  coming  to  the  rescue  respectively  of  the 
Boys'  Academy  and  the  Girls'  High  School. 

Miss  Franz  has  had  charge  of  the  Women's  Bible  Institute 
during  the  year.  She  reports  good  work  and  an  attendance  of 
thirty. 

The  women  have  paid  about  half  their  food  money.  The  purpose 
of  this  institute  is  to  give  more  advanced  instruction  than  can  be 
given  in  inquirers'  classes  to  promising  women  who  have  not  had  the 
benefit  of  educational  advantages.  The  intention  is  to  make  them  use- 
ful Christian  workers  in  their  own  families  and  church,  and  also  to 
furnish  Bible  women  for  the  field.  Some,  however,  wives  of  students, 
were  not  even  Christians,  and  it  is  interesting  to  record  several  con- 
versions among  this  number. 

Of  Bible  classes  for  women  in  the  country  there  have  been 
nine,  one  conducted  by  Mrs.  Mateer,  the  others  by  Miss 
Hawes. 

The  great  benefit  of  such  classes  is  too  well  known  to  need  further 
reference.  The  women  provided  their  own  food.  This  means  that 
the  Christians  are  really  interested  in  the  spiritual  uplift  of  their 
women. 

In  the  Summer  a  large  class  for  men,  nearly  sixty,  was  conducted 
at  the  Station.  It  was  to  help  men  of  a  grade  that  might  hope  to 
become  Station  leaders.     For  this  class  food  was  provided. 


WEST  SHANTUNG— WEI-HSIEN.  131 

The  Men's  Hospital,  under  Dr.  Roys,  has  had  a  year  of 
gratifying  progress.  In-patients  numbered  359.  This  class  of 
patients  yields  more  satisfactory  results,  medically,  than  do 
dispensary  patients,  and  they  are  in  touch  with  the  Christian 
teaching  long  enough  to  get  a  more  definite  idea  of  what 
it  is.    There  were  fewer  dispensary  patients  than  last  year. 

Indeed  dispensary  patients  have  never  rallied  to  the  figures  of  pre- 
Boxer  days.  An  important  reason  doubtless  is  that  some  native  shops 
are  selling  foreign  medicines  and  some  of  the  proprietors  of  these 
claim  to  have  foreign  training.  These  shops  are  points  of  competition 
and  their  inferior  results  are  an  injury  to  the  reputation  of  legitimate 
medical  practice. 

At  the  city  dispensary  Dr.  Roys  has  been  gathering  some- 
thing of  a  museum  and,  though  it  far  from  satisfies  his  ideals, 
it  has  attracted  about  5,000  visitors  during  the  six  months 
it  has  been  in  operation.  The  city  evangelist,  an  earnest  man, 
has  presented  the  Gospel  to  these  hosts.  His  wife,  also 
educated,  has  also  done  a  good  work  among  the  women  of 
that  quarter.  Even  ladies  of  the  exclusive  wealthy  families 
have  invited  her  to  call,  and  she  has  been  able  to  give  them 
the  Gospel  message. 

The  Woman's  Hospital,  under  Dr.  Bynon,  has  a  record  of 
over  4,000  dispensary  patients,  including  those  seen  on 
itineraries.     There  have  been  132  in-patients. 

More  ward  room  is  needed.  Much  more  might  have  been  done  if 
Dr.  Bynon  had  not  been  so  cramped  for  room.  A  number  of  trips  to  sur- 
rounding places  were  undertaken  during  the  year.  Word  was  sent  out 
ahead,  and  the  day  appointed  was  spent  in  dispensing  to  all  who  came. 
On  these  trips  a  total  of  over  1,000  patients  was  seen.  Many  cases 
of  interest  in  the  Gospel  have  been  noted  among  the  patients  in  the 
hospital.  There  has  been  faithful  preaching  to  all  patients  by  the  Bible 
woman. 

Our  hospitals  have  been  in  sad  need  of  isolation  wards  for 
years.  We  are  greatly  indebted  to  the  Minneapolis  Pres- 
byterial  Society  for  a  gift  of  $430  gold,  which  has  made  it 
possible  to  erect  this  much-needed  ward.  Dr.  Roys  has  super- 
intended erection.  It  is  so  located  as  to  be  available  for  either 
men  or  women,  and  is  to  be  known  as  the  Robert  F.  Sample 
Memorial  Ward. 

LITERARY  WORK.— Several  members  of  the  Station 
have  given  some  time  to  literary  work. 

Mrs.  Crossette  has  published  a  translation  of  "Little  Meg's 
Children,"  and  is  now  engaged  in  the  translation  of  Mrs.  Prentiss' 
"Stepping  Heavenward."  Mrs.  R.  M.  Mateer  has  brought  out  "Teddie's 
Button"  in  Chinese,  and  is  engaged  on  a  work  upon  "Organ  Method," 
and  also  on  a  story,  "The  Browns  at  Mt.  Hermon."  Mr.  Luce  is 
working  on  "Studies   on  the  Life   of   Christ."     Mr.    Chalfant's   spare 


132  WEST  SHANTUNG— TSINAN-FU. 

time  has  been  busied  with  "Ancient  Chinese  Writing."  Mrs.  C.  W. 
Mateer  has  published  a  Supplement  to  the  Tunebook  so  long  in  use, 
also  the  second  volume  of  her  Abridged  Arithmetic.  She  is  now 
preparing  a  book  on  "Household  Economy."  And,  of  course.  Dr. 
Mateer  was  engaged  on  the  great  work  of  translating  the  Old  Testa- 
ment. 

TSINAN-FU  STATION. 

The  return  of  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Neal  from  furlough  was 
gladly  welcomed.  Miss  Mary  M.  Harding  came  with  them 
and  was  at  once  united  in  marriage  to  the  Rev.  W.  W.  John- 
ston, an  event  of  delightful  interest  to  many.  Dr.  Charles 
F.  Johnson  has  since  returned  from  furlough,  Mrs.  Johnson 
remaining  in  America  for  a  time  with  the  children. 

EVANGELISTIC— aVy  Work.— Dr.  Hamilton  is  in 
•charge  of  the  East  Suburb  Church  and  co-superintendent  of 
the  Union  Church  of  the  South  and  West  Suburbs.  He  has 
been  assisted  in  preaching  by  other  members  of  the  Station 
and  by  some  of  the  Chinese  brethren. 

The  Church  has  the  usual  experience  of  the  wheat  and  the  tares, 
but  the  good  predominates.  Two  young  men,  sons  of  Christians,  have 
been  guilty  of  dishonesty  and  other  sins  in  connection  with  their  posi- 
tion in  the  Post  Office.  They  have  lost  lucrative  posts,  plunging  those 
dependent  upon  them  into  sore  distress. 

While  some  have  gone  astray  in  the  postal  service,  there  are  more 
than  a  dozen  of  our  members  in  honorable  Government  employ,  either 
in  the  Post  Office  or  in  educational  or  in  medical  work,  who  reflect 
credit  upon  the  Church.  Two  of  them  act  as  superintendent  and 
assistant  superintendent  of  our  Sunday-school.  The  general  reputa- 
tion of  our  Christian  community  in  the  East  Suburb  is  good  and  we 
are  steadily  increasing  in  favor  with  our  non-Christian  neighbors. 
Present  membership  is  seventy-six,  of  whom  one-fourth  are  absent 
earning  their  living.  One  of  these,  away  off  in  Si-chuan,  West  China, 
remembered  us  by  providing  that  his  life  insurance  of  $i,ooo  Mexican 
should  at  his  death  go  to  the  church  for  the  establishment  of  an 
industrial  school. 

Mrs.  Hamilton  and  Miss  Boehne  held  a  ten-day  Summer 
class  for  the  women  of  the  neighborhood.  It  was  fairly  well 
attended. 

The  daughter  of  a  minor  military  official  secretly  attended  the  class. 
Pier  brother  is  an  inquirer  at  the  Street  Chapel  and  he  helped  her  in 
her  study.  Another  secret  inquirer  is  a  middle-aged  woman,  who 
attends  the  prayer  meeting,  coming  from  a  distant  quarter  of  the  city. 

The  juvenile  class  of  the  Sunday-school  continues  under 
Mrs.  Dodd's  care.    The  children  of  Christians  attend  well. 

Street  Chapel. — The  year  in  the  Street  Chapel  has  been  the 
best  ever  recorded  in  Tsinan.  Large  and  attentive  audiences 
have  assembled  evening  after  evening  all  the  year.  Four  men 
of  very  promising  character  have  recently  been  received. 


WEST  SHANTUNG— TSINAN-FU.  133 

The  union  with  the  EngHsh  Baptist  Mission  in  street-chapel 
work  still  continues.  That  Mission  contributes  $40  a  year, 
which  is  5  per  cent,  on  half  the  capital  of  the  plant.  They 
also  share  current  expenses.  On  the  Baptist  side  Mr.  Har- 
mon has  been  responsible  for  the  Chapel  work;  on  the  Pres- 
byterian side,  Dr.  Hamilton. 

The  Street  Chapel  preacher  this  year  is  a  young  man  of  the  Baptist 
Church,  who  has  just  completed  the  theoiogical  course  at  Tsing-chou-fu. 
Christians  from  the  city  and  country  render  valuable  assistance. 
Notably  is  an  energetic  barber,  Gung  by  name,  who  has  talent  for 
public  address.  He  has  made  wonderful  progress  in  the  attainment  of 
Christian  truth  since  he  came  to  us  four  years  ago.  Then,  he  could 
hardly  read  a  word ;  now,  he  has  a  fair  knowledge  of  Scripture  history 
and  especially  the  New  Testament. 

The  Baptist  Church  now  conducts  daily  preaching  in  the  Museum 
connected  with  their  Institutional  work.  They  are  also  planning  to 
acquire  a  preaching  place  in  the  West  Suburb,  a  city  of  itself  as  to 
population  and  business. 

Country  IVork.—ln  the  country  are  five  organized  churches 
with  a  membership  of  427.  In  connection  with  the  unorgan- 
ized work  are  212  members.  During  the  year  have  been  added 
sixty-six,  with  fully  as  many  catechumens. 

In  every  town  and  village  where  the  Gospel  has  been 
preached  there  is  a  much  better  hearing  than  in  any  former 
year.  The  total  membership  for  the  Station  is  now  715;  re- 
ceived this  year,  sixty-eight. 

Our  whole  country  field  has  greatly  suffered  this  year  from 
lack  of  rain  and  a  dreadful  shortage  of  crops.  A  large  sec- 
tion will  show  not  more  thati  one-third  of  the  usual  fruitage. 
This  seriously  affects  the  contributions  of  the  Chinese  Church. 
This  is  of  small  importance  as  compared  with  the  basal  fact 
that  in  some  places  we  are  face  to  face  with  a  condition  of 
semi-famine. 

This  shortage  of  crops  predisposes  the  popular  mind  to  other  un- 
settling influences.  Wild  rumors  fly  with  rapidity  and  never  grow 
less.  For  several  weeks,  all  West  Shantung  has  been  stirred  with 
rumors  that  China  is  in  difficulty  with  Germany.  The  popular  imagina- 
tion converted  a  recent  washout  of  the  German  Railway  into  an  act 
of  belligerents ;  a  powder  magazine  explosion  far  away  was  an  attack 
of  the  Germans  on  Chefoo,  and  the  local  movements  of  the  military 
quite  beyond  the  knowledge  of  the  masses  was  considered  proof  posi- 
tive that  war  was  in  the  air.  All  such  conditions  tend  very  seriously 
to  frighten  the  incipient  inquirer  after  Truth. 

Agaiuj  in  some  parts  of  the  field  have  been  local  disturbances  that 
have  caused  anxiety.  Dr.  Hamilton  speaks  of  some  official  underlings 
pouncing  upon  an  inquirer  when  at  Sunday  service.  There  were  faults 
on  both  sides,  friction  ensued,  which  resulted  in  loss  of  considerable 
money ;  and  then  when  the  missionary  refused  to  press  the  case  before 
the  magistrate  on  behalf  of  the  Christians,  there  was  much  soreness. 
Several  other  cases  have  been  very  trying. 

Mr.  Murray  and  Mr,  Dodd  report  good  attendance  at  the 


134  WEST  SHANTUNG— TSINAN-FU. 

Sunday  services,  and  among-  the  most  faithful  attendants  are 
a  number  of  new  seekers,  including-  some  promising  men  from 
villages  where  there  has  been  no  Christianity. 

Triumphs  for  Christ  may  also  be  found  among  the  women.  It  is 
surprising  how  some  of  them  have  come  out  and  remained  firm  and 
have  grown.  In  two  of  Mr.  Murray's  churches  the  women  attend 
better  than  the  men.  Some  of  them  have  been  severely  tried  by  home 
persecution,  dishonest  dealings,  and  repeated  sicknss  and  death  in  the 
family.  But  they  are  bright  with  faith  and  hope.  They  are  the  Lord's 
own, 

Mrs.  Hamilton  and  Miss  Boehne  have  been  doing  good  work 
among  the  women.  Miss  Boehne  reports  holding  classes  in 
the  country  in  eight  different  villages,  besides  doing-  much 
home  visitation. 

Station  Classes  for  Bible  Study. — These  are  held  every  year 
and  are  productive  of  much  good.  With  a  larger  Christian 
constituency  in  the  country,  better  material  can  be  chosen. 
There  are  over  twenty  helpers  in  the  country,  none  of  whom 
have  had  a  complete  education,  and  but  few  of  them  able  to 
take  the  course  at  Tsingchow-fu. 

It  is  our  custom  to  have  these  men  come  in  Winter  and  Summer  for 
Bible  study.  With  them  we  have  a  number  of  other  Christians  and 
advanced  inquirers.  The  daily  study  of  Scripture  for  a  month  each 
time  results  in  a  blessing.  We  have  seen  the  fruits  of  it  already.  All 
through  July  a  class  of  fifty  first-class  men  were  here  closely  studying 
Scripture  references  on  the  Ten  Commandments,  together  with  a  study 
of  Isaiah.  Two  of  the  leaders  spoke  daily  on  selected  texts  with 
criticism  of  others.  Messrs.  Murray,  Hamilton  and  Dodd  all  took 
part  in  the  teaching.  Mr.  Murray  expresses  the  opinion  that  this  Bible 
study  is  his  best  work  and  productive  of  most  good. 

EDUCATIONAL.— T/ie  Clara  Linton  Hamilton  Memorial 
Academy  for  Boys  under  Mr,  and  Mrs.  Dodd  reports  a  de- 
cided improvement  in  the  efficiency  of  the  native  Faculty,  the 
character  of  the  work  done,-  and  the  conduct  and  spirit  of  the 
student  body. 

Much  is  due  to  the  efficient  work  of  the  head  Chinese  teacher,  Mr. 
Chang  Kwei  Wen,  who  came  to  us  from  the  Post  Office  at  a  great 
pecuniary  loss  to  himself.  We  are  sorry  that  the  attendance  has  been 
so  small,  only  twenty-nine. 

The  religious  life  of  the  boys  has  had  a  healthy  growth.  Increasing 
enthusiasm  for  evangelistic  work  has  been  shown  in  their  Y.  M.  C.  A. 
They  supplied  an  out-station,  sending  one  or  two  students  each  week, 
with  a  teacher,  to  spend  Saturday  evening  and  Sunday  helping  the 
Christians  all  they  could. 

T^YO  other  students  entered  the  College  at  Wei-hsien,  raising  our 
present  representation  there  to  seven  students,  all  of  whom  are  making 
good  progress.  We  hope  to  send  several  more  students  to  the  College 
and  the  Training  School  at  Tsingchow-fu. 


WEST  SHANTUNG— TSINAN-FU.  135 

Primary  Schools. — The  school  in  the  East  Suburb,  sup- 
ported entirely  by  the  native  Church,  has  an  enrollment  of 
seventeen.  An  interesting  feature  of  the  school  is  that  it  is 
conducted  in  a  Taoist  Temple.  Altogether  there  are  twelve 
Primary  Schools  with  an  enrollment  of  135  pupils.  There 
are  three  country  schools  for  girls,  also  introducing  new 
methods.  Two  teachers  are  from  our  Wei-hsien  High  School. 
Mr.  Murray  writes : 

What  a  marked  difference  of  former  years !  I  well  remember  the 
first  girl  that  was  brought  from  her  country  home  to  the  Mission 
school,  then  a  small  affair.  There  was  opposition  and  much  talk.  I 
saw  the  tears  of  the  little  girl  on  leaving  home.  But  I  also  remember 
her  perseverance,  unbound  feet  and  happy  faith.  On  one  occasion  she 
had  acute  trouble  with  her  eyes,  and  the  doctor  thought  she  would 
be  blind.  With  bandaged  eyes  in  a  darkened  room  she  was  often  heard 
cheerily  singing.  When  asked  how  she  could  be  so  happy,  she  replied 
with  some  spirit  in  child-like  confidence,  "I  won't  be  blind  in  Heaven." 
Now,  after  weary  years  of  waiting,  the  Station  is  seeing  the  evidences 
of  better  treatment  and  education  of  our  Christian  girls  and  women. 
Two  of  our  elders  in  the  country  erected  good-sized  buildings  for  the 
Girls'  Schools  and  in  other  ways  have  shown  their  interest.  When 
one  school  was  closed  for  lack  of  a  suitable  teacher,  one  of  the 
older  girls,  under  advice  of  her  pastor,  began  at  home  teaching  her 
younger  brothers  and  sisters.  She  is  now  entering  the  High  School  at 
Wei-hsien. 

MEDICAL. — The  Board  deeply  regrets  that  it  has  thus  far 
been  unable  to  find  a  woman  physician  to  reopen  the  Louisa 
Boyd  Hospital  for  Women  while  Dr.  .Neal's  furlough  closed 
the  Men's  Hospital. 

The  Dispensary  for  Women  has  been  kept  open.  Miss  Dai,  a  former 
assistant,  has  been  able  to  treat  many  simple  cases,  2,617  in  all.  We 
take  pleasure  in  recording  the  faithful  performance  of  duty  of  this 
Chinese  woman  under  trying  circumstances. 

Last  Fall,  Governor  Wu  made  a  gift  to  the  "Medical  work  in  East 
Suburb"  of  $400  Mexican. 

ENLARGEMENT  OF  THE  MISSION  PLANT.— The 
Station  records  its  gratitude  for  donations  of  money  for  the 
purchase  of  land.     Donations  received  are  as  follows,  viz. : 

Gold.        Mexican.

136  WEST  SHANTUNG— ICHOU-FU. 

Tsinan-fu  has  always  been  a  large  and  important  city,  the  capital 
of  the  province.  The  city  is  now  coming  into  even  greater  prominence. 
With  new  railroads,  greater  business,  and  Chinese  education,  better 
equipment  is  needed. 

The  securing  of  suitable  adjacent  land  was  deemed  of  first  impor- 
tance. Our  scheme  called  for  over  eight  English  acres.  We  report 
that  we  have  purchased  over  seven  acres  and  that  money  is  in  hand 
for  the  other  one. 

Of  the  $4,500  for  land  and  wall  asked  for  last  year,  we  have  already 
received  approximately  $3,000. 

We  have  also  the  $1,000  from  Mr.  Severance,  referred  to  in  pre- 
ceding list,  for  the  kindergarten  and  towards  the  Anglo-Chinese 
School  or  for  the  Girls'  School,  as  future  developments  may  show  to 
be  expedient.  As  far  as  the  land  is  concerned,  all  that  was  contem- 
plated in  the  scheme  has  been  provided  for,  save  the  land  for  the 
English  School. 

ICHOU-FU  STATION. 

STATION  TERRITORY.— Here  is  a  small  empire  as 
large  as  the  two  States  of  Massachusetts  and  Delaware,  its 
population  probably  equal  to  that  of  those  two  States,  with 
Connecticut's  thrown  in.  The  field  comprises  the  entire  south- 
eastern part  of  the  province.  From  the  I  River  it  stretches 
westward  until  it  meets  the  more  or  less  clearly  defined  bound- 
ary line  of  Yi-hsien  and  Tsining-chou  Stations,  thirty  miles 
away,  and  eastward  to  the  coast  fifty-five  miles.  Northward  it 
goes  over  river,  mountain  and  plain  to  the  Wei-hsien  field,  a 
clear  reach  of  100  miles.  Southward  from  Ichou-fu  the 
territory  slants  down  to  the  provincial  boundary,  fifty  miles 
away. 

In  all  this  territory  we  have  had  this  year  two  missionary  evangelists 
working.  This  Fall  a  third  will  be  at  work,  except  when  busy  in  the 
Station  with  the  schools.  It  is  evident  that  even  three  men  cannot 
cover  this  vast  field.  One-third  of  it  is  practically  not  worked.  The 
northeastern  quarter  is  too  far  from  the  Station  for  effective  opera- 
tions. The  out-stations  in  this  northeast  territory,  in  order  to  give 
them  anything  approaching  pastoral  oversight,  must  be  visited  at  least 
two  or  three  times  a  year,  at  a  great  expenditure  of  time,  energy  and 
money.  One  of  these  out-stations,  formerly  one  of  our  most  prosper*- 
ous  ones,  it  has  been  possible  to  visit  but  once  during  the  last  two 
years. 

STATION  WORK. — Each  missionary  has  been  engaged  in 
one  or  all  of  these  four  kinds  of  work :  study,  teaching,  preach- 
ing, healing. 

1.  Study. — This  work  never  ends,  as  study  should  be  con- 
tinued through  life.  The  younger  members  of  the  Station  have, 
of  course,  given  their  chief  time  to  the  language. 

2.  Teaching. — A  Boys'  Academy  was  organized  last  year. 
The  missionaries  write: 

The  school's  founding  was  compulsory,  even  though  no  building, 
teacher,  equipment,  or  support  were  visible.     We  were  forced  to  pro- 


WEST  SHANTUNG— ICHOU-FU.  137 

ceed  along  the  path  of  the  plain  pointings  of  God's  Providence,  trust- 
ing Him  to  care  for  His  work.  As  to  buildings,  we  were  able  to  get 
along  for  a  few  months  with  two  or  three  native  house-rooms ;  when 
compelled  later  to  move  from  these,  fortunately  others  were  found 
available.  But  during  the  eighteen  months  of  the  school's  life,  it 
has  been  compelled  to  move  not  less  than  three  times,  and  the  end  is 
not  yet. 

To  secure  teachers,  the  evangelistic  force  was  crippled.  As  for 
equipment,  we  have  done  without  all  but  the  absolutely  indispensable — 
indispensable  not  from  the  standpoint  of  an  American  educator,  but 
from  that  of  the  missionary  long  inured  to  letting  crying  needs  go 
unmet  and  meeting  only  those  whose  outcry  is  the  loudest.  As 
regards  financial  support,  we  have  lived  from  hand  to  mouth,  but  we 
closed  the  year  out  of  debt,  and  with  grateful  hearts. 

The  first  year  of  the  Academy  was  a  successful  one,  from  an  educa- 
tional standpoint.  At  first  under  the  charge  of  Messrs.  Chalfant  and 
Paris,  and  since  January,  of  Mr.  Faris  alone,  good  work  has  been  done 
by  teachers  and  pupils.  The  first  year  eleven  boys  were  in  attendance, 
of  whom  three  were  graduated  in  January.  Of  these  one  is  now 
teacher  of  the  Boys'  School  in  Yi-hsien,  and  one  is  attending  the 
Normal  School  in  Ching-chou-fu.  There  are  at  present  ten  students, 
and  enough  are  in  sight  to  make  it  seem  certain  that  we  shall  have  at 
least  twenty,  if  we  have  money  to  care  for  them. 

The  Boys'  Day-school  continues  to  be  conducted  in  two  de- 
partments, according  to  the  boys'  ages.  The  two  Chinese 
teachers  have  been  busy,  with  an  attendance  of  forty-one. 
DiscipHne  has  been  good,  and  examinations  show  excellent 
work  by  instructors  and  pupils. 

The  Girls'  Day-school,  under  Mrs.  Fonts,  has  had  another 
year  to  taxed  accommodations.  Enrollment  w^as  twenty-six, 
and  further  growth  is  checked  until  more  room  can  be  secured. 
Six  of  the  girls  are  from  the  country,  in  spite  of  the  lack  of 
accommodations  for  boarding  pupils ;  as  in  the  case  of  the 
Boys'  Academy,  rooms  properly  belonging  to  other  depart- 
ments have  been  used  for  boarders. 

Another  Station  school  deserves  mention. 

Dr.  Fleming  and  Mrs.  Fonts,  recognizing  a  need  for  further  in- 
struction of  girls  and  young  married  women  too  old  for  the  day- 
school,  opened  the  "Women's  Training  School."  Mrs.  Fouts  was 
placed  in  charge,  and  the  school  has  had  a  successful  seven-months' 
term,  with  an  enrollment  of  six.  The  school  is  frankly  an  experiment, 
but  it  seems  to  be  worth  the  time  spent  on  it,  and  it  is  hoped  that 
more  than  one  of  the  young  women  may  later  be  available  as  Bible 
women.  The  financial  outlay  has  been  nil,  room  and  equipment  having 
been  loaned  by  the  missionaries. 

Country  schools  number  nine,  with  sixty-eight  pupils,  most 
of  whom  are  boys.  The  work  on  the  whole  has  been  as  satis- 
factory as  could  have  been  expected,  with  the  small  salaries 
paid  teachers,  and  the  lack  of  sufificient  supervision  by  an  over- 
worked missionary  force. 

The   teaching   of   Western    branches    is    but   beginning   in    our   out- 


138  WEST  SHANTUNG— ICHOU-FU. 

station  schools,  though  the  patrons  are  eager  for  its  introduction  every- 
where. As  a  means  to  the  end  desired,  a  three-weeks'  Summer  school 
was  held  at  Ichou-fu,  when  ten  teachers  from  the  country  were 
taught. 

Two  Bible  Institutes  have  been  held  this  year,  one  for 
women  in  December  in  charge  of  Dr.  Fleming  and  Mrs.  Fonts, 
when  twenty-six  women  received  instruction  in  the  elements 
of  the  Gospel,  and  one  in  January-February  for  men,  con- 
ducted by  Messrs.  Chalfant  and  Armstrong,  at  which  fifty 
men  were  taught  for  two  weeks.  As  in  the  past,  those  attend- 
ing were  given  a  small  pittance  of  "cash,"  to  help  them  with 
their  "road  money,"  their  simple  food  while  in  the  Station  also 
being  furnished. 

The  following  is  a  summary  of  the  students  from  our  field  in 
attendance  on  the  various  schools  of  the  Mission  during  the  year : 
Country  schools,  68;  Ichou-fu  Girls'  Day-school,  26;  girls  in  Wei- 
hsien  High  School,  i;  Women's  Training  School,  6;  Boys'  Day-school, 
41 ;  Ichou-fu  Boys'  Academy,  14 ;  students  in  Ching-chou-fu  Theological 
and  Normal  School,  7;  total,  163. 

Under  the  subject  of  education  should  be  mentioned  a  little  work 
in  English  undertaken  early  in  the  year.  The  new  district  magistrate 
asked  the  missionaries  to  teach  English  to  his  two  sons.  It  was 
finally  deemed  wise  to  give  them  four  hours  a  week  for  a  time,  the 
instruction  being  given  by  Mr.  Faris  and  Dr.  Fonts.  Later,  Messrs.  Ber- 
gen and  Chalfant  took  part  of  the  work,  and  for  some  months  the  boys 
were  given  six  hours  a  week.  In  all,  over  100  hours'  instruction  was 
given  these  sons  of  the  official. 

3.  Preaching. — Under  this  head  are  oversight  of  the  organ- 
ized churches,  visiting  and  ministering  to  the  scattered  be- 
lievers and  inquirers,  proclaiming  the  Word  to  the  teeming 
multitudes  of  heathen,  and  superintendence  of  street  preaching 
Stations  and  bookshops. 

(a)  Organised  Churches. — The  Ichou-fu  field  now  has  seven 
churches  as  compared  with  six  two  years  ago. 

The  last  is  the  Northeast  Church  of  the  county  in  which  Ichou  City 
is  situated.  It  includes  several  villages,  and  has  three  elders,  no  two 
of  whom  live  in  the  same  town.  Four  of  these  churches,  including  that 
in  Ichou-fu  itself,  are  under  the  supervision  of  Mr.  Chalfant,  Mr. 
Armstrong  caring  for  the  other  three.  The  three  in  Mr.  Armstrong's- 
field  are  from  75  to  100  miles  distant  from  the  Station — too  far  for 
effective  supervision. 

Ichou-fu  Church  is  becoming  stronger  every  year,  the  pres- 
ent membership  being  130. 

The  attendance  has  been  all  that  our  little  room  could  accommodate,, 
and  we  anticipate  that  with  the  erection  of  the  new  building  the 
congregations  will  increase  rapidly.  Ichou-fu  furnishes  an  excellent 
opportunity  for  a  strong  church.  Beside  the  regular  Sunday  and 
Wednesday  services,  a  Sunday  afternoon  meeting  for  men  has  been 
held  in  the  men's  hospital  and  one  for  women  in  the  chapel.  The- 
latter  has  been  cared  for  by  the  foreign  women  of  the  Station. 


WEST  SHANTUNG— ICHOU-FU.  139 

The  local  church  Sunday-school  flourishes  with  an  average  at- 
tendance of  I  GO.  Mrs.  Fouts'  regular  Bible  class  for  women 
has  been  continued  during  most  of  the  year. 

As  a  part  of  the  evangelistic  work  of  the  Station  should  be  men- 
tioned the  organization  of  a  Young  Women's  Christian  Association 
with  seventeen  members.  This  was  organized  by  Dr.  Fleming  and  she 
has  acted  as  advisory  member  at  the  weekly  meetings,  opening  her 
home  for  its  gatherings,  and  doing  much  to  make  it  a  real  power  for 
mental  and  spiritual  uplift  to  the  girls. 

(b)  Other  Preaching  Places. — In  addition  to  the  organized 
churches  there  are  in  country  villages  eighteen  places  of  regular 
visitation. 

In  some  of  these,  there  is  much  to  cheer  the  itinerant's  heart.  No 
startling  results  have  been  attained,  but  it  is  evident  that  the  Gospel 
has  a  genuine  hold  on  many  of  the  people,  and  new  inquirers  are 
enrolled  at  nearly  every  visit.  In  the  care  of  these  scattered  groups 
of  Christians,  and  of  the  organized  churches,  the  missionaries  are 
assisted  by  nine  Chinese  "helpers"  and  three  Bible  women. 

It  is  not  always  easy  to  tabulate  results  of  mission  work, 
but  some  figures  may  be  helpful.  The  new  inquirers  enrolled 
number  65 ;  inquirers  examined,  120 ;  received  into  church 
communion,  35.  The  total  membership  of  the  Church  in  the 
Ichou-fu  field  is  now  571,  as  compared  with  542  last  year, 
497  in  1907,  and  303  nine  years  ago,  a  year  before  the  Boxer 
war. 

The  value  of  books  sold  during  the  year  is  168,000  small  cash,  the 
equivalent  of  perhaps  $35  gold.  The  books  given  away  were  for  the 
most  part  school  books,  of  which  the  Ichou-fu  boys'  and  girls'  schools 
received  to  the  value  of  68,000  small  cash  ($15),  and  the  country 
schools  to  the  value  of  5,000  small  cash  ($1).  The  books  sold  were 
nearly  all  religious  in  character,  and  sold  at  reduced  prices.  It  is  to 
be  remembered  in  connection  with  the  value  of  the  books  bought  by 
the  Chinese,  that  $1  gold  in  China  is  equivalent  to  about  $25  in  America, 
considering  the  wages  of  a  common  day  laborer. 

Preaching  Chapels. — The  four  street  chapels — at  Ichou-fu, 
Chu-chow,  Li-Djia-Djwang  and  I-shwei — have  been  open  as 
formerly  with  a  helper  and  a  gate-keeper  at  each. 

Associated  with  each  of  them,  except  at  Ichou-fu,  is  a  boys'  school. 
In  connection  with  the  one  at  Chu-chow  the  branch  dispensary  has 
been  continued,  with  a  medical  graduate  in  charge.  There  is  also  at 
Chu-chow  a  small  Sunday-school.  At  Ichou-fu  the  daily  preaching 
to  the  visitors  attracted  from  the  street  by  the  singing  has  been  con- 
tinued, with  regular  preaching  services.  Numbers  of  books  have  been 
sold,  and  a  few  inquirers  have  been  enrolled,  one  of  whom  has  been 
baptized. 

(d)  Itinerating. — The  superintendence  of  these  country 
churches  and  preaching  places  has  necessitated  much  travel 


140  WEST  SHANTUNG— ICHOU-FU. 

by  the  clerical  missionaries.  Suitable  vehicles  cannot  often  be 
secured.  For  a  part  of  this  work,  the  wheelbarrow  is  pre- 
ferable, and  this  is  used,  except  when  rain  makes  it  impossible 
to  use  a  barrow  on  the  muddy  roads.  However,  there  are 
times  when  barrows  are  decidedly  less  convenient  than  mule- 
carts  or  mule-litters. 

Many  days'  travel  could  be  saved  in  a  year's  time  could  we  use  one 
of  these  vehicles,  as  is  done  rather  generally  in  the  northern  Stations 
of  the  Mission.  But  in  Ichou-fu  there  are  no  mule-litters,  and  hiring 
a  cart  is  always  difficult,  especially  when  one  is  wanted  very  much! 
Indeed,  there  are  times  when  it  would  be  impossible  for  the  mis- 
sionaries to  leave  the  Station,  even  were  it  a  case  of  life  and  death. 

While  itinerating,  opportunities  have  been  embraced  to  attend 
markets  and  do  open-air  preaching,  and,  when  the  marketers  would 
buy,  to  sell  them  New  Testaments,  Gospels  or  tracts.  The  clerical 
itineration  of  the  year  totals  187  days,  during  which  time  6,000  li 
(1,800  miles)  were  covered.  Medical  itineration  included,  the  total 
number  of  days  is  216. 

Work  at  Yi-hsien. — The  active  clerical  members  of  the  Sta- 
tion force  have  done  what  they  could  to  help  the  over-worked 
Yi-hsien  missionaries,  Mr.  Chalfant  spending  nineteen  days 
on  a  trip  to  that  Station,  and  Mr.  Armstrong  thirteen  days. 

4.  Healing. — The  medical  work  of  the  Station  has  had  an- 
other successful  year.  Dr.  Fonts,  having  completed  the  re- 
quired language  course,  has  given  his  entire  time  to  the  men's 
dispensary  and  hospital  and  to  the  Station  treasurership. 

The  figures  for  the  year,  including  those  at  the  Chu-chow  branch 
dispensary,  are  as  follows :  Dispensary  patients,  new,  9,785 ;  return 
visits,  6,299;  seen  on  itineration,  223;  professional  visits  in  homes,  38; 
hospital  in-patients,  282-  making  a  total  of  16,627. 

Men's  Medical  Work. — 

The  attendance  at  the  Ichou-fu  dispensary  has  been  reduced  by 
the  introduction  of  a  gate  fee.  This  step  was  made  imperative  by  the 
utter  disproportion  between  the  number  of  patients  and  the  funds  and 
time  at  our  command.  The  change  has  been  beneficial,  enabling  us 
to  do  our  work  more  thoroughly  and  affording  a  prospect  of  closing 
the  year  without  debt. 

An  effort  to  increase  the  field  receipts  has  met  with  a  measure  of 
success.  About  1,000,000  small  cash  has  been  received  from  fees,  sales 
and  contributions.  Deducting  from  this  the  gate  fees,  which  amount 
to  about  275,000  sm.all  cash,  we  have  left  about  725,000  small  cash,  a 
sum  considerably  larger  than  the  600,000  small  cash  we  received  last 
year.  Conditions  are  such,  however,  that  it  will  be  some  time  before 
we  can  make  the  work  entirely  self-supporting,  much  as  we  should 
like  to  do  so. 

On  the  hospital  or  in-patient  side,  there  is  a  gratifying  in- 
crease in  numbers,  due  chiefly  to  the  fact  that  the  foreign 
physician  has  had  more  time  for  oversight. 


WEST  SHANTUNG— TSINING-CIIOU.  141 

Evangelistic  Work  in  Hospital. — 

None  have  been  received  into  the  Church  from  tlic  hospital  this 
year,  but  a  number  have  become  inquirers.  The  usual  daily  preaching 
by  the  native  evangelist  has  been  carried  on,  and  also  daily  morning 
prayers  in  the  hospital,  with  a  far  larger  attendance  of  patients  than 
last  year.  Informal  meetings  with  the  patients  Sunday  mornings, 
usually  conducted  by  the  foreign  physician,  have  been  well  attended. 

The  work  in  the  Chu-chow  branch  dispensary  is  more  satisfactory 
this  year  than  last.  Dr.  Djang  Gwang  Dien  is  now  in  charge  and 
doing  faithful  work.  The  attendance  is  not  so  large  as  during  the  first 
few  months  of  the  work  there,  but  remains  large  enough  amply  to 
justify  the  work. 

Only  four  days  have  been  spent  in  itineration  during  the  year,  in 
which  223  patients  were  seen. 

The  Women's  Hospital  and  Dispensary,  in  charge  of  Dr. 
Fleming,  reports :  Dispensary  patients,  new,  3,366 ;  return 
visits,  2,800 ;  seen  on  itineration,  285 ;  professional  visits  in 
homes,  50;  hospital  in-patients,  187;  a  total  of  6,688. 

The  fine  new  hospital  building  was  completed  in  September, 
1907,  and  many  attended  the  opening  exercises.  The  new 
building  gives  needed  room  for  a  few  lines  of  work  somewhat 
outside  of  the  regular  medical  work.  For  example,  the 
Women's  Training  School  occupied  one  large  room  during 
the  year,  and  the  teacher  had  her  room  in  the  hospital  also, 
where  her  example  was  of  benefit  to  the  patients. 

In  November,  Dr.  Fleming  spent  twenty-five  days  itinerating,  treat- 
ing 281  patients  on  the  trip,  while  at  the  Station  she  conducted  daily 
prayers  in  the  hospital  chapel  for  all  able  to  attend,  beside  offering 
prayer  with  the  assistants  before  opening  the  dispensary  each  day. 

The  work  done  has  compared  favorably  with  that  done  in  other 
years,  the  contributions  being  fair  and  the  relations  between  physician 
and  her  helpers  most  pleasant.  As  much  time  as  could  be  spared  was 
spent  in  the  wards,  talking  to  the  patients. 

TSINING-CHOU  STATION. 

The  working  force  has  been  smaller  than  usual  during  the 
past  year. 

Dr.  and  Mrs.  Lyon  left  on  furlough  in  May.  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Rom.ig 
have  been  in  charge  of  the  Boys'  Boarding  School  and  the  Girls'  Day- 
school,  and  up  to  the  Chinese  New  Year  they  were  in  charge  of  all  the 
evangelistic  work.  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Thompson  have  been  away  on 
furlough;  the  Station  is  glad  to  welcome  them  back.  Mr.  Field  and 
Mr.  Fames  were  welcome  additions.  The  former  helped  in  the  coun- 
try work,  taking  charge  of  the  Feng-hsien  region.  He  has  also  taken 
charge  of  the  Boys'  School.  Mr.  Fames'  time  has  been  occupied  by 
language  study  and  in  teaching  English. 

The  Rev.  R.  M.  Mateer  came  from  Wei-hsien  with  a  valuable  helper 
and  they,  together  with  Pastor  Chia.  conducted  a  large  class  in 
February.  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Hamilton,  of  Tsinan,  assisted  in  the  Feng- 
hsien  and  Northwest  fields  during  the  Spring.  We  thank  these  friends 
who  left  the  work  in  their  own  Stations  to  give  us  much  needed  help 


142  WEST  SHANTUNG— TSINING-CHOU. 

EVANGELISTIC. — Evang-elistic  work  was  started  in  the 
Fall  by  a  series  of  meetings  in  four  centres  under  arrange- 
ments made  by  Mr.  Romig.  Three  Chinese  pastors  from  the 
Wei-hsien  field  with  Mr.  Romig  had  charge  of  these  meet- 
ings, which  were  well  attended  and  most  profitable. 

Each  person  provided  for  his  own  food  except  millet  gruel.  In  the 
Northwest  field  we  had  to  stop  in  an  inn  a  mile  from  the  chapel.  It 
was  interesting  to  see  the  group  of  from  fifty  to  seventy-five  persons 
going  back  and  forth  across  the  fields  to  the  meetings.  Fathers  and 
mothers  became  anxious  for  those  of  their  families  who  were  not 
converted.  Earnest  prayers  were  offered  by  the  Christians  and  a  total 
of  seven  years'  time  was  contributed  by  the  Christians  and  inquirers 
for  preaching  to  their  fellows.  One  old  gentleman  said  that  he  wished 
to  give  all  his  remaining  years  to  the  Lord's  work.  In  July,  a  week's 
meetings  were  held  in  the  Feng-hsien  field  at  the  request  of  the 
Christians  there.  Mr.  Field,  Pastor  Chia,  Liu  Heng  Yu  and  Elder 
JLiu  Hsu  Tseng  all  had  a  part  in  these  meetings. 

A  large  class  for  leaders  of  the  various  out-stations  was 
opened  after  the  Chinese  New  Year.  Eighty  men  came  from 
thirty  centres  and  sixty  villages.  Messrs.  R.  M.  Mateer,  Romig 
and  Field,  together  with  Elder  Teng  and  Pastor  Chia,  gave 
instruction  to  the  class.  Evangelistic  services  were  held  dur- 
ing the  evenings.  We  regret  that  Mr.  Mateer  was  ill  during 
much  of  the  time.  His  lectures,  however,  were  given  by 
Elder  Teng,  of  Wei-hsien. 

Woman's  work  consisted  in  the  Station  of  the  usual  woman's 
weekly  prayer  meeting,  the  Sunday-school  class,  and  a  semi* 
weekly  Bible  class. 

We  are  indebted  to  Mrs.  Hamilton  for  the  work  done  in  the  country 
districts.  In  the  Spring  she  made  a  tour  of  the  Southern  and  North- 
western fields  where  large  classes  were  held.  The  women  were  eager 
for  instruction.  Several  women  contributed  a  week  or  more  of  time 
each  to  the  Church  and  have  been  faithful  in  using  that  time  in  preach- 
ing in  their  own  and  neighboring  villages. 

The  whole  field  has  been  covered  twice  in  itineration.  Eight 
hundred  examinations  of  inquirers  have  been  conducted  and 
l6o  adults  baptized.  There  have  been  some  persecutions  which 
we  hope  will  bear  good  fruit.  The  helpers  spend  the  day  at 
markets  or  villages,  preaching  and  distributing  tracts  and 
portions  of  Scripture,  and  the  evening  at  some  centre,  teach- 
ing the  Christians  and  inquirers.  The  Word  of  God  is  taking 
root  in  many  hearts. 

A  man  of  official  rank  came  to  the  compound  one  Sunday  to  inquire 
about  Christianity.  Mr.  Romig  discussed  Christian  teachings  with  him 
and  with  some  understanding  the  man  bowed  in  prayer.  Later  he 
invited  the  missionary  to  meet  some  of  the  gentry  of  the  city.  The 
talk  was  on  Christian  topics.  It  was  surprising  how  much  general 
knowledge  these  men  had  of  Christianity  and  how  many  had  read  the 
Scriptures.  There  are  many  such  men  in  China :  may  the  Holy 
Spirit  lead  them  to  Christ. 


•  WEST  SHANTUNG— TSINING-CHOU.  143 

Though  the  year  has  been  a  hard  one  financially  for  the 
people,  there  have  been  native  contributions  to  the  amount  of 
about  $150  for  evangelistic  work. 

There  are  now  forty  out-stations  for  regular  religious  services,  an 
addition  of  twelve  since  last  year.  Among  these  is  a  large  town, 
Nan-yang,  on  the  Grand  Canal,  which  has  been  opened  by  a  young 
man  who  was  converted  in  South  Africa  and  who  has  been  zealous 
since  his  return  home  in  influencing  others  of  his  own  town. 

The  Summer  class  for  native  evangelists  was  taught  by 
Pastor  Chia  and  Liu  Heng  Yu.  The  Tsining  organized  church 
has  had  a  healthy  growth,  but  no  great  advance.  We  rejoice 
in  our  enlarged  chapel  which  some  friends  made  possible  by  a 
timely  gift. 

The  colporteurs  have  done  good  work.  Fifteen  thousand  portions 
of  Scripture  have  been  sold  in  the  cities  and  villages.  The  influence  of 
this  spread  of  the  Gospel  is  difficult  to  estimate,  but  we  feel  sure  that 
it  will  yield  fruit.  The  Men's  Sunday-school  has  been  superintended 
by  Dr.  Lyon  and  is  now  in  charge  of  Mr.  Li,  the  leading  teacher  of 
the  Boys'  Boarding  School.     A  good  attendance  has  been  maintained. 

MEDICAL. — The  Rose  Bachman  and  Annie  Hunter  Me- 
morial Hospitals  were  under  the  supervision  of  Dr.  Lyon,  Mrs. 
Lyon  assisting  in  the  work  of  the  Hunter  (Women's)  Hos- 
pital, until  their  return  to  America  on  furlough  in  May.  After 
that  the  work  was  in  charge  of  Dr.  Chia  and  his  assistants. 
The  Rose  Bachman  Hospital  reports  16,688  treatments,  311 
in-patients  and  82  major  and  minor  operations.  The  Hunter 
Memorial  Hospital  for  Women  shows  the  number  of  treat- 
ments to  be  4,365 ;  in-patients,  135 ;  operations,  23.  There  is 
thus  a  total  of  dispensary  cases  for  both  hospitals  of  21,053; 
in-patients,  446,  and  operations,  105,  some  of  which  were 
major  operations. 

SCHOOL  WORK.— The  Boys'  Boarding  School  has  con- 
tinued on  the  self-help  plan.  There  has  been  an  average  of 
forty-five  students,  three-fourths  being  in  the  self-help  depart- 
ment. The  fees  from  this  department  have  amounted  to  $292 
Mex.,  besides  cash  $109,  a  total  of  $401  for  the  year.  One 
hundred  and  fifty-five  thousand  pages  of  tracts  have  been 
printed  by  the  boys  and  many  other  kinds  of  work  done.  Spe- 
cial funds  from  a  friend  helped  to  meet  the  expenses  of  the 
school,  which  have  not  decreased  since  the  famine  year  in 
Kiang-su. 

A  normal  class  of  twelve  was  held  during  the  Spring  term,  taught 
by  the  teachers  of  the  Boys'  School.  Several  of  this  class  helped  with 
Chinese  branches  in  the  Boys'  School,  thus  paying  for  their  board. 

After  Mr.  Romig's  resignation  from  the  school  at  the  close  of  the 
Spring  term,  Mr.  Field  took  up  that  work.     In  September,  he  opened 


144  WEST  SHANTUNG— YI-HSIEN. 

the  school  with  thirty  pupils  in  the  High  School  and  eight  in  the 
Normal  class.  A  class  of  five  will  graduate  from  the  High  School 
at  the  next  Chinese  New  Year. 

Four  new  country  schools  have  been  opened  during  the 
year.  The  teachers  of  two  of  these  schools  have  been  pupils  in 
the  Tsining  High  School  and  are  able  to  instruct  in  western 
branches. 

The  Girls'  Day-school  at  Tsining  has  made  its  usual  good 
progress  with  an  attendance  of  twelve  girls.  The  one  farthest 
advanced  has  entered  the  Girls'  High  School  at  Wei-hsien. 

We  have  many  causes  for  gratitude.  The  field  is  open  to  the  preach- 
ing of  the  Gospel  and  there  is  a  large  and  interested  body  of  inquirers. 
The  number  of  baptisms  has  exceeded  that  of  any  other  year.  There 
has  been  growth  on  the  part  of  the  Christians.  Many  of  them  are 
ready  and  willing  to  give  time  to  telling  their  fellows  of  Christ.  The 
foreign  evangelistic  force  of  the  Station  is  now  stronger  than  it  has 
been  during  the  past  few  years,  two  men  having  been  assigned  to 
Tsining  last  year  and  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Thompson  having  just  returned 
from  America.  Though  our  Station  is  sixteen  years  old,  we  are  still 
working  with  a  very  inadequate  plant  in  school  and  evangelistic  work. 
It  is  practically  impossible  for  us  to  make  any  great  advance  in  the 
still  untouched  and  wide  open  field  with  the  small  number  of  native 
evangelists  at  our  command. 

YI-HSIEN  STATION. 

The  year  has  been  a  trying  one  to  the  little  group  of  mis- 
sionaries at  Yi-hsien.  Uncertainty  as  to  the  future  of  the  Sta- 
tion has  caused  the  members  of  the  Station  great  anxiety. 
Anticipated  funds  for  new  property  had  not  developed,  and  it 
became  a  question  whether  it  would  be  financially  possible  to 
maintain  the  Station  at  all.  The  little  company,  however, 
held  on  with  splendid  fidelity  and  courage.  As  the  year  closed, 
their  faith  was  rewarded  by  the  assurance  that  the  Station  was 
to  be  continited,  while  the  generosity  of  the  New  York 
Woman's  Board  provided  a  residence.  The  outlook  is,  there- 
fore, brighter,  but  the  needs  are  still  great. 

Foundation  laying  is  important  in  any  structure.  The  first 
few  years  in  all  new  Stations  are  of  this  kind.  Much  of  the 
effort  shows  little,  but  it  is  nevertheless  essential  to  the  future 
results.  Work  this  year,  while  possibly  not  of  a  kind  to  yield, 
material  for  a  stirring  report,  has  still  been  of  importance. 
Overcotning  prejudices,  winning  friends,  and  in  numerous 
ways  attempting  to  get  into  touch  with  the  people  around  us, 
nre  among  the  accomplishments  of  the  vear. 

The  force  has  been  small,  the  equipment  inadequate,  but  we  have 
done  the  best  we  could.  The  churches,  hospital,  and  schools  are  all 
prosperous,  and  the  attitude  of  the  people  generally  is  friendly. 

We  are  extremely  grateful  to  Dr.  and  Mrs.  William  Hamilton  for 
their  visit   in  the   Spring.     Their   untiring  energy  and  valuable  advice 


WEST  SHANTUNG— YI-HSIEN.  145 

were  a  great  help.  Their  opinions  were  most  favorable  regarding  the 
openings  in  this  entire  region  and  the  promising  outlook  in  all  depart- 
ments of  work. 

Mr.  William  Chalfant  also  paid  us  a  visit  and  helped  us  in  many 
ways,  frequently,  too,  writing  us  fully  upon  important  questions  about 
which  we  had  consulted  him. 

MEDICAL. — Dr.  Cunningham  feels  that  the  year's  work 
affords  cause  for  gratitude,  not  only  because  of  the  number  of 
patients  treated,  but  also  because  of  the  great  ntmiber  of  people 
who  have  had  the  opportunity  for  the  first  time  to  hear  the 
story  of  God's  love. 

Treatment  of  those  who  come  seeking  physical  relief  forms  but  one 
phase  of  our  twofold  mission.  Aside  from  the  one  evangelist  who  gives 
several  hours  each  day,  every  member  of  the  staff  assists  in  pointing 
all  who  come  to  the  Cross  as  the  only  means  of  man's  redemption. 

Two  classes  that  come  are  very  pitiable — inoperable  cancer 
and  leprosy.  Multitudes  afflicted  with  the  latter  disease  live 
northwest  of  us,  and  it  is  hoped  in  the  near  future  that  a  spe- 
cial ward  may  be  provided  for  these  unfortunates.  While  no 
radical  cure  can  yet  be  given  them,  their  sufferings  can  be  more 
or  less  relieved,  their  lives  prolonged  and  made  more  tolerable, 
and  above  all  they  can  be  brought  under  the  influence  of  the 
Gospel  in  ways  now  necessarily  denied  them. 

Effort  is  being  made  to  place  the  hospital,  as  far  as  possible,  on  a 
self-supporting  basis.  Whether  this  can  be  accomplished,  the  future 
only  can  tell,*  but  we  know  that  the  Chinese  spend  much  on  native 
medicines  and  doctors,  so  there  is  no  reason  why  all  should  be  treated 
gratis.  Our  hospital  will  have  a  greater  value  by  charging  all  who 
can  afford  it,  just  as  the  spiritual  life  of  the  native  Church  is  healthier 
when  members  contribute  according  to  their  ability  to  its  support. 

During  the  year  11,124  patients  were  treated  and  thirty- 
seven  calls  came  from  outside. 

EDUCATIONAL. — We  have  seven  primary  schools  in  and 
about  Yi-hsien,  including  the  one  at  Taierh-chwang  and  the 
two  in  the  Station.     Ninety  boys  and  girls  have  attended. 

A  class  for  country  school-teachers  was  held  in  February.  Arithmetic 
and  geography  were  taught  by  Mr.  Yerkes,  and  doctrine  by  Mr.  W. 
P.  Chalfant.  A  similar  class  was  held  in  August,  during  which  Mr. 
Armstrong,  of  Ichou-fu,  lent  a  helping  hand. 

The  educational  work  in  Yi-hsien  itself  is  encouraging.  Dur- 
ing the  first  year  of  the  Station,  there  were  so  few  children 
willing  to  come  that  only  one  school  with  eight  pupils  was 
maintained.  But  before  the  Chinese  New  Year  so  many  more 
wanted  to  come  that  a  separate  school  for  girls  was  opened, 
under  the  supervision  of  Miss  Paris.    The  school  started  with 


146  WEST  SHANTUNG— YI-HSIEN, 

eight  pupils  and  the  number  increased  till  there  were  seventeen 
enrolled.  The  boys'  school,  under  the  care  of  Mr,  Yerkes, 
has  grown  from  three  to  ten.  The  room  is  so  small  and  dark 
that  it  can  hardly  be  dignified  by  the  name  of  building.  How- 
ever, we  are  much  pleased  with  the  work  done  by  the  two  lit- 
tle schools, 

EVANGELISTIC— Depleted  force  and  financial  uncer- 
tainty prevented  much  itineration,  and  no  inquirers'  class  for 
men  was  held  during  the  year.  Four  inquirers'  classes  were 
held  for  women. 

Law-suits  in  some  places  have  caused  the  work  to  suffer,  but  the 
Christians  have  learned  a  lesson,  and  in  the  future  will  understand 
that  their  pastor  is  not  their  lawyer  and  that  they  are  subject  to  the 
law  of  their  native  land. 

An  effort  has  been  made  to  instruct  the  helpers  and  country  school- 
teachers so  that  they  could  do  more  and  better  work  along  evangelistic 
lines  as  well  as  teaching.  Two  classes  with  a  total  of  thirty-five  days 
were  held  with  that  aim  in  view. 

During  the  year  fifteen  adults  and  five  children  were  bap- 
tized. 

These  figures  do  not  show  our  actual  gain,  as  the  Christians  have 
grown  in  grace  and  there  is  a  large  number  of  catechumens,  some  of 
whom  are  prepared  for  baptism.  Several  districts  have  other  inquirers 
that  have  not  been  enrolled  as  catechumens.  These  places  have  been 
visited  and  many  expect  to  apply  for  examination  in  -the  Fall.  One 
town  in  the  above  class  has  twenty  men  who  are  studying,  four  of 
whom  have  twice  traveled  over  fifty  li  to  attend  Sunday  services  at 
Yi-hsien.  One  family  alone  purchased  over  8,000  small  cash  worth  of 
Bibles,  hymn  books  and  commentaries.  The  leader  of  this  group  is 
a  Chinese  doctor  of  good  reputation  and  some  means.  All  meet  at 
his  place  for  worship  and  his  attitude  toward  Sunday  is  reported  the 
best  in  either  Teng  or  Yi-hsiens.  All  of  our  helpers  have  visited  the 
town  and  report  it  the  most  remarkable  opening  they  ever  saw.  We 
have  five  other  centres  that  we  are  opening  in  a  like  manner,  and  if 
we  had  the  men  could  find  many  open  doors. 

SHANTUNG  PROTESTANT  UNIVERSITY. 

The  annual  report  is  not  issued  by  the  Field  Board  of  Di- 
rectors until  the  close  of  the  College  year,  which  is  consider- 
ably after  the  Board's  report  must  go  to  press. 

The  College  at  Wei-hsien  has  prospered  during  the  year. 
Two  hundred  and  forty-five  students  have  matriculated,  the 
largest  number  in  its  history.  The  work  done  by  the  students 
and  teachers  is  steadily  increasing  in  efficiency.  More  than 
nine-tenths  of  the  students  are  Christians,  Every  member 
of  the  Senior  class  is  a  Christian,  as  in  fact  are  all  the  students 
in  the  regular  classes.  The  few  non-Christians  come  to  us 
as  young  men  who  have  completed  their  Chinese  education, 


WEST  SHANTUNG— PROTESTANT  UNIVERSITY.         147 

and  who  are  eager  to  acquire  a  knowledge  of  Western  science. 
They  come  properly  recommended  to  us  by  pastors  and 
elders,  as  men  of  straight  life,  and  without  bad  habits.  Several 
among  them  are  not  far  from  the  Kingdom. 

A  growing  feature  of  our  work  is  increasing  inquiry  as  to  terms 
of  entrance  to  the  College  on  the  part  of  young  men  now  attending 
Government  institutions.  These  schools,  not  usually  being  equipped 
with  qualified  teachers,  and  almost  destitute  of  discipline,  have  been 
disappointing  in  their  results.  We  believe  this  is  but  a  passing  phase 
of  these  schools  and  that  in  the  course  of  a  decade  great  improvement 
will  be  made.  But  in  any  case  there  need  be  no  conflict  or  competition 
between  their  schools  and  ours.  The  supreme  aim  of  our  College  is 
to  educate  thoroughly  young  men  who  as  pastors  or  laymen  will  prove 
able  and  devoted  leaders  in  the  Church;  while  in  the  Government  the 
education  will  be  strictly  secular,  if  not  anti-Christian. 

The  Church  therefore  should  do  all  in  its  power  to  foster  and 
develop  this  College,  where  an  education  is  given  which  inspires  respect 
on  every  hand,  and  which  is  permeated  with  Christianity  from  start 
to  finish.  Such  a  work  carried  on  by  the  Church  bears  a  most  vital 
relation  to  evangelization  of  Shantung.  It  shows  the  governing 
classes  that  the  Church  stands  for  education  of  the  highest  order,  for 
loyalty  to  native  land,  and  obedience  to  the  powers  that  be.  It  shows 
that  the  Church  is  developing  young  men  who  are  useful,  both  to  the 
Church  itself  and  to  the  commonwealth. 

If  we  desire  to  present  the  Gospel  to  the  really  serious  consideration 
of  the  thoughtful  and  educated  men  of  the  Province,  we  cannot  do 
so  more  wisely  than  by  showing  that  Church  and  College  are  linked 
together  in  close  co-operation  for  the  salvation  of  men  in  the  broadest 
sense.  Our  supporters  at  home  should  know  the  urgent  importance 
of  entering  the  widely  open  door  offered  by  the  present  thirst  for 
education  on  western  lines. 

The  Theological  Seminary  and  Normal  School  at  the  Bap- 
tist Station  of  Tsing-chou-fu  has  also  had  a  good  year.  Dur- 
ing the  Spring  term,  the  average  attendance  in  all  depart- 
ments stands  very  near  eighty-one  Presbyterians  to  sixty-one 
Baptists ;  during  the  Fall  term  eighty-one  Presbyterians  to 
fifty-one  Baptists. 

In  the  Theological  Seminary  proper  nine  men  finish  the 
course  this  year.  Six  of  these  are  Presbyterians  and  three 
Baptists.  In  the  Collegiate  Department  thirteen  men  complete 
the  course.  Eleven  of  these  are  Presbyterians  and  two  Bap- 
tists. Future  classes  will  show  a  larger  proportion  of  Baptist 
students. 

The  Rev.  Watson  M.  Hayes,  D.D.,  continues  to  be  our  rep- 
resentative on  the  Faculty.  He  was  prostrated  for  a  time  by 
severe  illness,  but  God  graciously  spared  him  to  the  work  in 
which  he  is  so  useful.  On  his  recovery,  he  plunged  again  into  his 
accustomed  activities,  teaching,  writing  and  translating.  A 
Bible  class  of  fifty  members  is  a  growing  power  for  good. 

More  time  has  been  given  to  literary  work.  Kellogg's  "Handbook  of 
Comparative  Religions"  was  finally  completed  and  published  in  August 


148  WEST  SHANTUNG— PROTESTANT  UNIVERSITY. 

"Optics,"  Part  I,  after  passing  through  several  editions,  has  been 
entirely  rewritten  and  brought  in  Hne  v/ith  the  most  recent  Enghsh 
and  American  text-books.  This  has  been  the  most  exacting  Hterary 
work  of  the  year.  A  new  draft  of  "Apostohc  History"  has  also  been 
prepared  (the  first  edition  being  exhausted),  the  work  considerably 
enlarged,  and  the  larger  part  of  the  MS.  is  now  in  the  hands  of  the 
printer. 

The  new  Medical  College  at  Tsinan-fu  is  being  given  an 
excellent  plant  out  of  the  special  gift  for  this  purpose  received 
by  the  Baptist  Mission.  Dr.  Charles  Johnson,  formerly  of 
Ichou-fu,  has  been  transferred  to  Tsinan-fu  to  join  Dr.  James 
B.  Neal  in  the  enlarged  work  which  will  hereafter  include 
teaching  and  training  medical  students  as  well  as  conducting 
a  large  hospital  and  dispensary.

CANTON  STATION. 

The  work  of  this  large  Station  has  continued  to  prosper. 
The  absence  on  furlough  of  the  Rev.  Drs.  A.  A.  Fulton  and 
Andrew  Beattie  has  necessarily  affected  the  evangelistic  work 
in  which  these  two  veteran  missionaries  have  been  so  inde- 
fatigable. 

We  record  with  deep  regret  that  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Beattie  have 
been  obliged  to  resign.  Dr.  Beattie's  health  has  caused  anxiety 
for  several  years,  and  finally  physicians  advised  his  return  to 
America.  The  Board  joins  many  friends  of  the  family  and 
Mission  in  hope  and  prayer  for  full  recovery. 

EVANGELISTIC  WORK.— First  and  Third  Churches  in 
Canton,  and  work  in  the  Districts  of  Kam  Li,  Shun  Tak,  Nam 
Hoi,  San  Ning,  Hoi  Ping  and  Yan  Ping.  Since  the  departure 
of  Dr.  Fulton  and  Dr.  Beattie,  Mr.  W.  D.  Noyes  has  cared

for  these  extensive  fields  as  well  as  he  could  with  his  other 
work. 

The  statistics  show  that  there  has  not  been  as  large  a  number  re- 
ceived as  in  some  previous  years.   This  is  for  various  reasons  : 

(i)  The  restlessness  of  the  people.  The  antagonism  aroused  by  the 
British  in  policing  the  West  River  and  the  boycott  against  things  Jap- 
anese tended  to  produce  a  general  anti-foreign  feeling  that  affected 
Christian  work  more  or  less. 

(2)  Atheistic  or  agnostic  literature.  Much  of  it  comes  from  Japan, 
and  the  kinship  of  the  two  languages  as  written  makes  it  more  ac- 
cessible than  if  this  literature  were  introduced  in  some  European 
tongue.  The  Chinese  preachers  frequently  mention  this  as  a  menace  to 
the  progress  of  the  Church. 

(,3)  A  better  understanding  of  the  aims  of  the  Church  in  the  minds 
of  the  people  in  general,  hence  they  do  not  try  to  enter  the  Church  to 
get  in  law-suits,  and  those  who  did  so  are  leaving.  In  times  past  these 
men  have  been  able  to  deceive  the  very  elect  by  their  professions. 

(4)  There  is  a  movement  on  foot  in  the  native  Church  to  make 
entrance  more  difficult  and  the  requirements  of  membership  more  rigid. 
This  purifies  and  strengthens  but  perhaps  limits  numbers. 

(5)  Our  grave  lack  of  foreign  missionaries  properly  to  direct  the 
work  and  do  the  intensive  work  that  is  now  needed.  The  Chinese 
leaders,  good  as  they  are,  have  not  reached  the  point  where  they  are 
able  to  do  the  work  as  it  ought  to  be  done. 

(6)  Our  field  has  been  reduced  during  the  year.  The  San  Ui  Dis- 
trict, formerly  in  the  bounds  of  this  Station,  has  now  been  transferred 
to  the  Canadian  Presbyterian  Mission.  This  does  not  mean  a  lesser 
work,  but  one  just  as  great  or  greater.  We  are  attempting  to  enter  new 
towns  in  the  districts  under  our  care.  We  withdraw  from  one  section 
only  to  enter  more  thoroughly  into  another  and  to  develop  it  to  a 
higher  state  of  efficiency. 

Third  Church,  Canton. — Steady  progress  during  the  year. 
Associated  are  several  chapels  in  two  other  districts.  Outside 
the  Little  North  Gate  is  Wan  Chi  Kong,  a  chapel  on  a  main 
thoroughfare  into  the  city,  reaching  many  who  pass  by. 

It  is  planned  to  hold  the  conference  of  preachers  twice  a  year  instead 
of  once.  The  conference  includes  devotional  meetings,  discussions  of 
the  various  problems,  and  planning  for  the  future,  much  like  the  re- 
treats of  the  ministers  at  home.  In  this  field  there  are  three  self-sup- 
porting churches,  in  one  of  which  there  is  a  Chinese  pastor.  We  strive 
to  get  the  members  to  shoulder  as  much  responsibility  as  possible,  and 
there  are  few  places  that  look  to  the  Board  for  their  whole  support. 
These  we  are  reducing  in  number  as  fast  as  possible. 

Fa-ti  Church,  Canton  (in  care  of  Rev.  J.  J.  Boggs). — This 
church  is  composed  largely  of  the  students  in  the  High  School, 
but  more  and  more  people  are  coming  in  from  the  villages 
around.  The  number  of  members  is  141,  of  whom  ten  joined 
this  year.  There  are  three  Sunday-schools  connected  with  the 
church,  one  for  men  and  two  for  women.  In  term  time  when 
the  students  are  present  the  large  church  is  full. 

Evangelistic  Work  among  Women. — Dr.  Mary  W.  Niles 
and  Miss  Lucy  Durham  have  been  faithful  in  making  evan-

o^elistic  trips  into  the  country — Nam  Hoi,  Shun  Tak,  and  the 
four  districts.  They  have  exercised  oversight  over  tlie  Bible 
women  and  girls'  schools  in  those  regions,  and  exerted  a  most 
helpful  influence  by  their  visits. 

Mrs.  A.  J.  Fisher  has  made  several  trips  of  a  week  or  more 
into  the  country  from  Shek  Lung  and  had  some  very  good 
meetings,  though  the  time  was  short  at  each  place. 

In  April  the  Christian  women  gathered  into  our  school  building  for 
a  week  of  study,  twenty-two  boarders  and  as  many  more  from  Shek 
Lung  daily.  The  Sunday-school  has  gradually  grown.  The  prayer 
meeting  after  the  church  service  is  one  of  our  most  helpful  meetings. 
Tuesday  meetings,  well  attended  at  the  beginning  of  the  year,  fall 
off  during  the  hot  months  and  at  the  end  of  the  year. 

Miss  E.  A.  Churchill  has  had  marked  improvement  in  her 
eight  day-schools :  259  enrolled,  an  increase  of  sixty-five. 
Daily  attendance  has  also  increased. 

Fees  received  amounted  to  $132.10,  almost  double  those  of  last  year. 
Opened  a  new  Sunday-school  at  a  day-school  at  the  East  Gate  of  the 
city,  with  forty  pupils.  In  six  weeks  had  200  women  and  children  in  a 
little  room,  20  by  15  feet.  Another  room  ten  feet  longer  was  secured, 
which  was  packed  with  250  before  the  hot  weather  came  on.  This 
neighborhood  presents  a  splendid  field  for  work.  Regular  weekly  meet- 
ings in  the  chapel,  together  with  visiting  in  the  homes,  have  been  con- 
tinued during  the  year.  Four  Bible  women  have  done  good  work. 
Sixteen  women  have  received  baptism  in  connection  with  my  work. 
Meetings  in  day-schools,  176;  in  chapel,  36;  in  homes,  88;  in  Sunday- 
school,  38. 

Mrs.  W.  D.  Noyes  has  had  charge  of  a  Sunday-school  of 
twenty-five  children  and  twenty-five  to  sixty  women.  A  day- 
school  has  been  visited  once -a  week;  two  of  the  women  have 
become  Christians.  Two  Bible  women  have  worked  at  Po  Tai 
Shui  and  one  in  near-by  villages.  A  choir  of  eight  boys  has 
been  trained  at  the  church.  A  new  boys'  school  has  been 
opened,  and  though  it  has  been  stoned  several  times  it  has 
had  nineteen  pupils. 

EDUCATIONAL  WORK.— The  Fati  schools,  under  the 
care  of  Mr.  Boggs,  Dr.  Noyes  and  Mr.  Noyes,  have  had  a 
prosperous  year  and  are  responding  as  best  they  can  to  the 
new  spirit  which  is  leading  the  young  men  of  China  to  seek 
a  thorough  education. 

His^h  School  and  Theological  Seminary,  Fati  (in  care  of 
Rev.^H.  V.  Noyes,  D.D.,  Rev.  J.  J.  Boggs  and  Rev.  W.  D. 
Noyes). — During  the  absence  of  Dr.  Noyes  on  furlough  the 
others  had  their  hands  more  than  full  of  work,  but  they  were 
ably  assisted  by  the  four  Chinese  teachers  who  have  done  good 
and  faithful  work  in  all  departments. 


154  SOUTH  CHINA— CANTON. 

There  have  been  eighty  students  in  the  high  school,  and  twenty- 
eight  in  the  theological,  the  building  for  the  former  department  being 
full  and  the  latter  half  full.  This  was  in  spite  of  the  fact  that  we  had 
anxious  times  on  account  of  epidemics.  A  supposed  case  of  plague  in 
the  school  almost  created  a  panic;  at  another  time  we  had  an  out- 
break of  beri-beri  that  assumed  serious  proportions,  while  an  epidemic 
of  cholera  with  a  dozen  deaths  in  a  neighboring  institution  gave  good 
reason  for  watchfulness.  We  were  mercifully  spared  and  all  the  sick 
recovered.  Some  damage  was  suffered  in  the  Summer  from  typhoon 
and  flood.  The  students  responded  liberally  to  the  appeals  for  help 
for  those  starving  because  of  the  flood. 

The  students  have  continued  their  evangelistic  work  in  the 
surrounding  villages. 

True  Light  Seminary,  for  zvomen  and  girls  (in  care  of  Miss 
H.  Noyes,  Miss  E.  M.  Butler  and  Miss  H.  Lewis). — Miss 
Noyes  and  her  associates  have  continued  their  arduous  labors 
at  the  True  Light  Seminary,  where  a  large  number  of  girls 
have  been  under  training  and  where  considerable  evangelistic 
work  for  women  and  children  centres.  The  evangelistic  awak- 
ening in  China  includes  women  as  well  as  men  and  there  is  a 
greater  demand  than  ever  before  for  the  education  of  girls. 
This  old  and  well-established  institution  has,  therefore,  come 
into  new  prominence  and  the  missionaries  are  very  desirous  of 
having  its  scope  so  enlarged  that  it  will  be  able  to  meet  the 
increasing  demands  upon  it. 

The  increased  desire  for  Western  learning  now  felt  in  China 
gives  crowded  school-rooms  and  makes  it  impossible  to  receive 
all  who  apply.  Enrolled:  women's  department,  78;  normal 
class,  25 ;  advanced  class,  28 ;  intermediate  class,  62 ;  primary 
class,  44 ;  a  total  of  237. 

Progress  is  made  in  self-support,  many  now  paying  all  expenses.  A 
former  pupil  returned  from  Rangoon  this  year  and  brought  $100  to 
pay  what  was  expended  for  her  while  here  more  than  thirty  years  ago. 
Twenty  of  the  students,  thirteen  women  and  seven  girls,  have  united 
with  the  Church.  Seven  have  commenced  mission  work  as  Bible  women, 
five  as  teachers,  and  six  have  taken  up  the  study  of  medicine.  One  of 
the  teachers  went  to  her  home  in  a  large  city  in  the  interior  and 
opened  a  self-supporting  school  which  has  had  good  success.  The  con- 
tributions of  teachers  and  students  for  the  year  were  $248,  given  to 
different  objects.  The  missionary  society  has  supported  three  Bible 
women  working  in  country  villages.  The  Chinese  teachers  are  two  well- 
educated  women  and  two  men  who  give  part  of  their  time,  and  a 
graduate  of  the  women's  medical  college,  who  lectures  twice  a  week. 
Since  the  idea  of  educating  the  daughters  of  China  has  taken  root  in  the 
minds  of  the  people,  the  demand  for  trained  teachers  has  become  very 
insistent  and  work  in  this  line  seems  most  necessary. 

Miss  Lewis,  since  her  return  from  furlough,  has  resumed 
work  in  the  seminary  and  has  had  care  of  four  day-schools  for 
girls  and  chapels  for  women,  with  a  total  of  183  pupils.  The 
work  has  been  very  encouraging  and  the  attendance  remarkably 
good. 


SOUTH  CHINA— CANTON.  155 

Miss  Butler's  work  has  been  mainly  in  the  seminary,  though 
she  has  had  some  new  work  in  the  normal  school. 

One  day-school  and  one  Bible  woman  have  been  under  her  care. 
The  Pui  Kei  school  for  boys  has  been  more  prosperous  than  ever, 
with  no  pupils  in  attendance,  till  the  heat  of  Summer  made  it  neces- 
sary to  send  some  to  their  homes. 

MEDICAL  WORK.— Canton  General  Hospital.— The  or- 
ganic relations  which  have  so  long  existed  between  the  Board 
and  the  Canton  General  Hospital  have  been  severed.  It  is 
known  to  the  Church  that  this  hospital,  founded  by  the  great 
Dr.  John  G.  Kerr,  has  been  for  many  years  owned  and  con- 
trolled by  a  local  independent  association  known  as  the  Canton 
Medical  Missionary  Society,  which  is  composed  of  missionaries 
of  various  denominations  represented  in  Canton,  Consuls, 
European  and  American  business  men  and  Chinese.  Our 
Board  furnished  the  medical  staff  of  the  hospital  and  had 
charge  of  the  evangelistic  work.  The  Medical  Missionary 
Society  deemed  it  expedient  to  assume  control  and  support 
of  the  medical  staff  as  well  as  of  the  other  expenses  of  the 
institution. 

This,  of  course,  affected  our  medical  missionaries  who  were 
connected  with  the  hospital.  Dr.  John  M.  Swan  remains  as 
Superintendent,  having  resigned  his  connection  with  the  Board. 
Dr.  Paul  J.  Todd  has  also  resigned  and  has  gone  into  private 
practice  in  Canton.  He  married  during  the  year  Miss  Mar- 
garet Strathie.  We  are  sorry  to  lose  these  excellent  workers, 
but  glad  that  Christian  work  in  Canton  has  not  lost  them.  Dr. 
Harry  W,  Boyd  remains  with  the  Mission  and  will  probably 
have  charge  of  the  medical  work  at  Shek  Lung. 

The  students  of  the  Medical  College  for  Men  in  connection 
with  the  Canton  General  Hospital  were  so  attached  to  Dr. 
Boyd  that  they  left  the  college  in  a  body,  about  sixty  in  num- 
ber, and  followed  him  to  the  Lafayette  Compound,  where  he 
went  for  a  time  to  assist  Dr.  Mary  Fulton  in  the  large  medical 
work  centring  there.  A  Presbyterian  medical  college  for  men 
could  thus  have  been  easily  continued,  and  it  might  have  been 
regarded  as  the  logical  outcome  of  the  medical  school  work 
begun  by  Dr.  Kerr  as  early  as  1865.  In  view,  however,  of  the 
fact  that  the  Canton  Medical  Missionary  Society  expects  to 
continue  its  Medical  College  for  Men,  and  that  the  Christian 
Association  of  the  University  of  Pennsylvania  is  developing 
another  medical  college  for  men  in  Canton,  the  Board  did  not 
deem  it  expedient  or  a  wise  use  of  missionary  force  and  money 
to  maintain  a  third  college.  It  was,  therefore,  agreed  that  Dr. 
Boyd  should  continue  his  instruction  until  the  end  of  the  college 
year,  and  that  for  the  ensuing  year  the  students  were  to  be  ad- 
vised to  return  to  the  Canton  Medical  Missionary  Society's 


156  SOUTH  CHINA— CANTON. 

College  or  to  connect  themselves  with  the  College  of  the  Uni- 
versity of  Pennsylvania. 

Dr.  Boyd  held  a  dispensary  once  a  week  at  the  Fa-ti  High 
School  and  Theological  Seminary. 

On  Dr.  Beattie's  return  to  America,  the  work  for  lepers  was 
assigned  to  Dr.  Boyd. 

The  chapel  has  been  repaired.  The  school  for  untainted  children 
of  lepers  at  Fa-ti  has  three  adults  and  one  child.  The  school  for 
untainted  children  at  the  East  Gate  has  eleven  children.  The  older 
children  make  clothes  for  the  younger  and  spend  part  of  their  time 
in  making  lace.  Dr.  Boyd  has  also  superintended  the  Sunday-school  at 
the  First  Church,  of  nearly  200,  and  conducted  the  Thursday  night 
prayer  meeting,  and  the  Bible  class  for  new  converts. 

Mrs.  J.  J.  Boggs  reopened  her  dispensary  in  January  on  the 
completion  of  the  new  building. 

Besides  the  work  among  the  women  who  come  in  on  dispensing 
days,  the  blind  Bible  woman  has  gathered  in  children  from  the  neigh- 
borhood daily  to  study,  and  on  Sundays  there  is  a  Sunday-school  for 
women  and  children.  A  day-school  is  maintained  in  a  village  about  a 
mile  away  among  an  entirely  heathen  community,  with  a  Sunday- 
school  on  Sunday  afternoons  for  women  and  children,  and  small  boys 
from  a  nearby  heathen  day-school.  Many  visits  made  in  the  homes  were 
gladly  and  courteously  received.  Many  calls  are  received  from  the 
heathen  women  in  near-by  villages  as  we'll  as  from  a  distance. 

David  Gregg  Hospital  for  Women. — Dr.  Mary  Fulton  has 
continued  her  strenuous  labors  which  have  been  intensified  by 
the  marriage  of  Miss  Strathie  to  Dr.  Todd  and  the  marriage  of 
Dr.  Isabella  Mack  to  Mr.  Patton  of  Yeung  Kong.  The  super- 
intendence of  the  David  Gregg  Hospital  for  Women  and  Chil- 
dren, the  E.  A.  K.  Hackett  Medical  College  for  Women,  the 
Julia  P.  Turner  Training  School  for  Nurses  and  the  Mary  H. 
Perkins  Memorial  Maternity  Wards  make  Dr.  Fulton  one  of 
the  busiest  women  in  the  world. 

Damages  from  flood  and  typhoon  had  to  be  repaired,  and  two  large 
buildings  were  for  the  first  time  since  their  erection  repaired  and  re- 
painted. A  committee  of  Chinese  was  given  the  use  of  the  grounds 
for  a  bazaar  for  the  relief  of  the  flood  sufferers.  This  fair  was  in  every 
way  a  success  and  a  goodly  sum  was  raised. 

During  the  year,  4,125  cases  were  treated  at  the  David  Gregg  Hos- 
pital, of  which  number  240  were  in-patients ;  448  visits  were  made  in 
homes;  308  operations,  major  and  minor,  were  performed;  721  teeth 
were  extracted  and  2  would-be  suicides  saved.  At  the  annex  dispen- 
sary 1,619  patients  were  seen,  37  visits  to  homes,  36  operations,  and  109 
teeth  extracted. 

Three  women  have  given  their  entire  time  to  teaching  the  Bible. 
Besides  church,  Sunday-school,  and  morning  worship  on  the  compound 
there  is  a  Bible  class  Sunday  evening,  nurses'  meeting,  working  women's 
meeting,  men's  prayer  meeting,  and  C.  E.  All-day  bedside  instruction  is 
given  daily  throughout  the  year.  A  mothers'  meeting  is  conducted  by 
Mrs.  Boyd  and  a  recent  converts'  meeting  by  Dr.  Boyd.    The  Gospel  is 


SOUTH  CHINA— CANTON.  157 

presented  in  all  homes  visited  and  tracts  and  books  distributed.    Some 
patients  have  been  genuinely  converted. 

Dr.  Fulton  has  finished  translating  two  volumes  of  Penrose's 
Gynecology,  484  pages,  Chinese.  There  is  also  in  press  a  re- 
vision of  "Nursing  in  Abdominal  Surgery,"  "Answers  to 
Prayer,"  and  "The  Roller  Bandage." 

The  E.  A.  Hackett  Medical  College  for  Women. — There  are 
thirty-seven  young  women  pursuing  the  regular  four  years' 
course ;  five  were  entered  irregularly ;  total,  forty-two.  Many 
new  text-books  permit  raising  the  standard.  There  are  twelve 
instructors,  three  being  foreigners.  The  girls  are  from  Foo- 
chow,  Amoy,  Hankow,  Hainan  and  Honolulu,  as  well  as  from 
regions  near.  The  college  has  recently  graduated  a  class  of 
seven.  The  occasion  was  a  notable  one.  The  Taotai  (Mayor) 
of  the  city  was  present  and  made  the  following  address : 

The  sixteenth  of  the  twelfth  moon  of  the  Mo  Shan  Year  being  the 
day  on  which  your  esteemed  college  celebrates  the  occasion  of  your 
students  completing  their  term  of  study,  I,  the  Taotai,  by  order  and  on 
behalf  of  the  Viceroy  of  the  two  Kwangs,  attend  this  meeting  to-day  and 
deliver  the  following  address : 

In  Western  countries,  medical  colleges  for  men  and  women  are 
equally  held  in  high  esteem.  Formerly  the  Americans  established  a  hos- 
pital for  women  in  Canton  called  the  Yan  Tsai,  and  subsequently  es- 
tablished the  present  college,  and  had  gathered  virtuous  ladies  and 
taught  them  the  method  of  delivering  the  people  of  this  world,  which 
is  a  very  good  idea.  All  the  ladies  have  used  their  utmost  endeavors 
to  learn,  and  have  now  succeeded  in  their  study.  From  this  time  for- 
ward, they  would  make  good  use  of  their  profession  and  be  brilliant 
lights  among  the  females,  so  as  to  comply  with  the  excellent  idea  of 
a  nation  with  whom  we  maintain  a  cordial  relation,  and  at  the  same  time 
realize  the  pleasure  and  hope  of  our  Viceroy.  May  you  female  students 
all  pluck  up  your  courage.  I  also  congratulate  your  esteemed  college 
on  its  future  career. 

The  young  physicians  thus  started  on  their  career  were  also 
addressed  by  Dr.  Amos  P.  Wilder,  American  Consul-General 
at  Canton,  who  said : 

It  is  your  part  to  show  that  medical  training  and  the  opportunity 
it  gives  for  helping  women  and  children  do  not  war  on  womanly  mod- 
esty and  gentleness,  but  rather  enrich  the  character  and  give  it  strength. 
Such  a  womanly  equipment  may  clash  with  the  traditions  of  those  who 
count  woman  a  toy  or  a  slave,  but  it  appeals  to  those  who  admire 
women  of  good  mind  and  an  intelligent,  sympathetic  and  efficient  in- 
terest in  life.  You  thus  have  a  double  mission,  not  only  to  alleviate 
pain  and  restore  strength,  but  to  build  up  among  the  Chinese  an  ambi- 
tion to  educate  their  daughters,  as  well  as  their  sons,  and  to  open 
doors  for  full,  rich  life  for  Chinese  women. 

It  is  common  to  hear  people  say  they  favor  and  will  support  med- 
ical missions  and  missionary  schools,  but  they  have  no  sympathy  with 
the  preaching  department  of  missions.  You  have  lived  with  mission- 
aries here  and  see  the  false  reasoning.  Medical  missions  and  missionary 
schools  are  the  fruits  of  Christian  principles ;  if  the  latter  are  not 
preached  there  will  be  none  of  the  former.    You  do  not  know  any  doc- 


158  SOUTH  CHINA— CANTON. 

tors  working  among  the  Chinese  without  fees  who  have  not  the  Chris- 
tian inspiration;  you  never  heard  of  a  foreigner  coming  to  China  and 
teaching  for  the  love  of  it;  only  those  come  with  the  Christian  motive 
power  behind  them. 

The  Julia  P.  Turner  Training  School  for  Nurses  has  been 
enlarged  so  there  are  nme  young  women  in  training. 

There  is  a  growing  interest  in  the  work  and  very  soon  in  Chinese 
homes  there  will  be  a  greater  demand  for  trained  women  to  care  for 
the  sick.  Sixteen  calls  were  responded  to  by  those  in  the  school.  Two 
went  a  distance  of  200  miles  into  the  country  and  another  150.  All 
are  Christians  except  two  who  came  recently  and  they  are  learning  the 
Gospel  message.   Three  completed  the  course  this  year. 

The  John  G.  Kerr  Refuge  for  the  Insane  continues  its  great 
and  beneficent  work.  Mrs.  Kerr  gives  to  it  a  large  part  of 
her  time  in  loving  consecration  to  the  work  which  her  husband 
bequeathed  to  her.  Dr.  C.  C.  Selden,  the  Christian  physician  in 
private  practice  in  Canton  to  whom  the  Refuge  owes  so  much, 
has  not  only  given  to  the  Hospital  all  the  time  and  strength 
that  his  rather  frail  health  has  permitted,  but  he  has  brought 
out  and  is  supporting  Dr.  John  A.  Hofifman  as  assistant. 

The  Refuge  has  had  311  inmates  this  year;  sixty-six  have  been  dis- 
charged cured  and  thirty  improved.  Twenty-three  died.  This  has  been 
a  year  of  misfortune ;  flood  and  typhoon  causing  damage  to  extent  of 
$600,  and  cholera  carrying  off  some  of  the  patients  after  an  illness  of  a 
few  hours.  There  have  been  weekly  a  Sunday  preaching  service,  two 
prayer  meetings,  a  Sunday-school,  and  an  evening  of  Bible  study.  Two 
have  become  Christians. 

School  for  the  Blind  (in  charge  of  Miss  Mary  W.  Niles, 
M.D.,  and  Miss  Lucy  Durham). — Many  friends  of  the  blind 
have  long  been  interested  in  the  heroic  efforts  which  Dr.  Mary 
Niles  has  made  to  found  and  carry  on  a  School  for  Blind 
Girls  in  Canton.  While  she  has  been  a  regular  member  of 
the  Mission,  and  while  the  Board  has  made  a  small  appropria- 
tion for  the  school,  the  main  burden  of  maintenance  has  been 
carried  by  Dr.  Niles  personally.  The  Mission  and  Dr.  Niles 
feel  that  the  time  has  come  when  this  School  for  the  Blind 
should  be  brought  into  the  same  relation  with  our  Mission 
work  as  our  other  institution  in  Canton,  and  this  transfer  is 
now  being  made  to  the  satisfaction  of  all  concerned.  A  larger 
and  better  site  for  the  school  has  been  secured  and  new  build- 
ings are  now  in  process  of  erection.  The  school  will  con- 
tinue as  before  under  the  superintendence  of  Dr.  Niles,  as- 
sisted by  Miss  Durham,  and  we  commend  it  anew  to  the  in- 
terest of  the  whole  Church. 

There  has  been  a  distinct  advance  in  methods  of  teaching  and  a 
marked  improvement  in  the  health  of  the  pupils.  Certificates  of  grad- 
uation were  given  to  some  who  had  completed  the  course.    The  girls 


SOUTH  CHINA—SEEK  LUNG.  159 

have  done  much  out-door  work,  carrying  earth  and  sand  for  filling  and 
working  in  the  garden.  Building  has  been  going  on  slowly,  a  residence 
for  the  missionaries  is  occupied,  already  tested  by  the  terrible  typhoon 
of  July,  and  the  brick  work  of  the  main  building  for  the  school  is 
nearly  done.  There  is  no  money  to  put  up  the  other  stories,  the  ve- 
randas, or  the  teachers'  house,  and  the  school  will  be  crowded  and 
unable  to  grow,  but  we  believe  the  Lord  will  put  it  into  the  heart  of 
some  one  to  pity  the  blind  of  China  and  send  means  to  care  for  them. 
There  has  been  an  average  of  thirty-one  blind  pupils.  One  who  grad- 
uated in  massage  under  Miss  Strathie  continued  her  studies  under  Dr. 
Niles  and  studied  physical  diagnosis.  In  vacation  they  did  religious 
work  in  their  villages.  Eight  girls  joined  the  church  during  the  year. 
The  typhoon  damaged  the  mat  sheds  that  were  in  use  as  temporary 
quarters. 

It  is  an  interesting  fact  that  this  School  for  the  BHnd,  the 
John  G.  Kerr  Refuge  for  the  Insane  and  the  School  for  the 
Deaf  and  Dumb,  the  last  in  Chefoo,  were  all  founded  and  are 
being  maintained  by  Presbyterian  missionaries.  Our  sympa- 
thies go  out  strongly  to  these  institutions,  which  are  deserving 
of  a  larger  support  than  they  have  yet  received. 

Dr.  Mary  Niles  has  also  given  much  time  to  translating. 

Two  volumes  of  the  Obstetrics  have  been  printed.  Two  volumes  of 
the  Practice  are  printed  and  the  work  on  the  third  volume  well  ad- 
vanced. The  office  practice  was  closed  in  January ;  up  to  that  time,  with 
the  help  of  the  native  assistant,  there  had  been  129  office  calls  and  30 
calls  in  the  country.  At  the  Ha  Fong  Tsuen  Dispensary,  810  patients 
were  treated,  under  the  care  of  Drs.  Selden  and  Hoffman,  most  of 
the  work  being  done  by  the  native  assistant,  though  the  foreigners 
frequently  assisted  in  the  more  difficult  cases. 

SHEK  LUNG  STATION. 

Mr.  and  Mrs.  Fisher  continue  their  care  of  this  important 
and  growing  field.  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Boyd  are  now  to  be  as- 
sociated with  them.  There  is  a  large  population  easily  acces- 
sible from  Shek  Lung,  and  a  great  opportunity  for  the  develop- 
ment of  a  large  work.  During  the  year,  Mr.  Fisher  had  sole 
oversight  of  the  sixteen  chapels  and  five  day-schools  for  boys 
of  the  East  River  field.    The  work  is  steadily  growing. 

Shek  Lung  Church  has  six  chapels  connected  with  it,  in  all 
of  which  preaching  has  been  regularly  carried  on  during  the 
year.    Forty-six  have  united  on  confession  of  faith. 

The  boys'  school  has  had  an  attendance  of  thirty. 

Look  Laan  Chapel  is  the  banner  chapel  in  point  of  numbers 
of  baptism — sixty-eight  were  baptized  this  year.  A  beautiful 
new  chapel  has  been  erected  at  a  cost  of  $1,500,  without  any 
aid  from  the  Mission.

YEUNG  KONG  STATION. 

The  members  of  this  Station  have  continued  their  devoted 
work.  Mr.  Patton  returned  from  furlough  during  the  year, 
bringing  with  him  his  bride.  Miss  Isabella  Mack,  M.D.,  of  the 
Canton  Station.  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Patton  are  devoting  their  spec- 
ial attention  to  the  development  of  Ko-chou,  one  of  the  out- 
stations  of  Yeung  Kong,  which  has  become  specially  prominent 
and  promising  as  a  centre  for  a  larger  evangelistic  work.  It 
will  remain  an  out-station,  there  being  no  thought  of  develop- 
ing it  into  a  separate  centre.  The  work  will  be  carried  on  by 
Chinese  helpers  under  the  superintendence  of  Mr.  and  Mrs. 
Patton,  who  will  visit  the  field  as  often  as  circumstances  will 
permit.  Mr.  Sheldon  Parks,  of  Cleveland,  Ohio,  has  gen- 
erously placed  at  the  disposal  of  the  Board  the  sum  of  $2,000 
gold  for  securing  the  necessar}^  property  at  Ko-chou,  this  sum 
being  composed  of  the  gifts  of  several  individuals  and  of  the 
Catherine  M.  V.  Holley  legacy  of  $600. 

EVANGELISTIC  WORK.— It  may  be  of  interest  to  note 
certain  general  conditions  and  special  forces  which  have  com- 
bined to  make  the  year  meager  in  visible  results,  yet  rich  in 
experience  and  full  of  promise  for  the  future.  Mr.  Marshall 
writes : 

1.  The  growing  indifference  to  idolatry,  sometimes  taking  the  form  of 
active  iconoclasm,  has  been  in  itself  an  opportunity  to  point  the  way  to 
the  true  God.  The  hostility  which  marked  the  early  part  of  the  year  has 
disappeared,  so  that  preachers,  colporteurs,  and  Bible  women  report  un- 
usual opportunities  to  present  the  Gospel  to  willing  hearers.  To  the 
Christians  has  come  the  opportunity  to  show  faithfulness  under  testing. 
Two  Christians  have  been  murdered  by  robbers,  seven  members  of 
Christian  families  carried  away  and  held  for  ransom,  while  the  wife 
of  another  brother  is  still  in  the  hands  of  pirates.  People  in  general 
are  beginning  to  understand  that  the  church  offers  its  members  no 
assistance  in  worldly  matters.  This  does  away  with  much  misappre- 
hension and  causes  the  Gospel  to  be  taken  on  its  merits. 

2.  Independent  forces  are  manifest  both  within  and  without  the 
Church.  There  is  a  general  spirit  of  restiveness  among  Christians, 
tending  toward  cutting  loose  from  missionary  control.  In  extreme 
cases  of  those  who  have  failed  to  find  in  the  church  worldly  advance- 
ment, there  has  been  a  turning  against  the  Church  and  a  repudiation  of 
all  connection  with  foreigners.  Outside  of  the  Church,  in  educational, 
industrial,  commercial,  and  official  matters,  the  Chinese  are  showing  an 
increasing  desire  to  rely  upon  their  own  resources.  In  consequence 
of  all  this,  there  is  a  call  both  within  and  without  the  Church  for 
leadership,  and  it  seems  unfortunate  that  China  has  but  few  men  pre- 
pared to  seize  the  strategic  moment.  Especially  do  we  feel  the  lack  in 
our  field,  as  our  men  are  almost  all  young,  inexperienced,  and  poorly 
equipped  for  leadership.

3.  Strong  spiritual  forces  are  undoubtedly  working.  In  Yeung  Kong 
City  especially  we  can  not  complain  of  stagnation,  and  the  agitation 
is  extending  to  other  places.  There  is  really  a  deep  spirit  of  earnest- 
ness which  sometimes  expresses  itself  in  crude  and  mistaken  forms 
yet  clearly  indicates  the  strivings  of  new  life.  A  characteristic  result 
is.  the  formation  of  several  leagues  for  prayer,  self-support,  Sabbath- 
keeping,  and  preaching  the  Gospel.  Such  forces,  if  wisely  directed,  will 
result  in  wider  evangelism  and  richer  harvests. 

Mr.  Marshall  spent  the  first  part  of  the  year  in  erecting-  a 
new  church  in  Yeung  Kong  City.  The  congregation  has  now 
a  commodious  building  situated  on  one  of  the  principal  streets. 
Its  erection  was  made  possible  by  the  generous  aid  of  the 
Second  Presbyterian  Church  of  Germantown,  in  supplementing 
the  efforts  of  the  local  congregation. 

The  opening  of  this  new  house  of  worship  was  attended  with  great 
blessing.  The  presence  of  the  Spirit  was  manifested  in  deep  heart- 
searching  and  confession  of  sin  followed  by  great  joy  and  peace.  As 
a  result  of  this  movement  many  are  earnestly  inquiring  what  are  the 
possibilities  of  the  Christian  life;  sluggish  indifference  has  been  broken; 
the  congregations  are  larger  and  more  attractive ;  a  new  era  of  evan- 
gelism has  come;  the  members  of  the  session  are  more  alert  and  aggres- 
sive, and  a  new  spirit  of  inquiry  has  arisen  among  people  in  general. 

On  account  of  pressure  of  work  only  three  communion  services  have 
been  held  in  each  chapel.  One  hundred  and  two  candidates  have  been 
examined,  and  out  of  this  number  twenty-five  have  been  baptized. 
Death  has  claimed  the  unusual  number  of  twenty-seven ;  two  of  whom 
were  killed  by  robbers,  most  of  the  others  being  the  victims  of  bubonic 
plague,  which  has  been  unusually  virulent  this  year. 

Special  classes  for  helpers  were  held  in  February  and  July.  Sys- 
tematic study  was  made  of  the  epistles  of  First  John  and  Philippians 
with  the  purpose  of  strengthening  the  Christian  motive  and  increasing 
the  spiritual  joy  of  all  our  helpers  in  their  arduous  work.  On  account 
of  their  isolation  and  the  severe  test  that  they  must  meet,  we  feel  that 
they  need  these  seasons  for  fellowship,  conference  and  Bible  study. 
Many  members  of  the  local  congregation  also  attended  these  classes 
and  much  interest  was  manifested. 

EDUCATIONAL  WORK.— Three  day-schools  with  a  total 
enrollment  of  seventy  pupils,  are  under  Mr.  Marshall's  charge. 
The  schools  in  Yeung  Kong  City  and  Fa  chau  are  taught  by 
first  degree  men,  who  have  shown  much  interest  in  their  work. 
A  marked  improvement  is  seen  both  in  discipline  and  scholar- 
ship. Many  promising  lads  are  gathered  into  these  schools, 
who  ought  to  be  given  the  advantages  of  higher  education. 

Part  of  Mr.  Marshall's  time  has  been  given  to  instructing 
a  theological  class  composed  of  three  promising  young  men, 
whom  we  hope  soon  to  be  able  to  use  in  supplying  vacant 
chapels.  This  class,  with  the  women's  training  class  and  the 
future  enlargement  of  the  evangelistic  work  of  the  Yeung 
Kong  section  of  our  field,  is  made  possible  by  the  generosity 
of  the  Second  Presbyterian  Church  of  Germantown.

Boarding  School  for  Girls. — This  school  is  in  care  of  Miss 
Wilcox,  who  writes: 

The  desire  of  my  heart  has  been  fulfilled  in  a  flourishing  girls'  school 
of  thirty-seven  pupils,  with  a  boarding  department  well  started  with 
twelve  boarders.  Many  more  are  waiting  to  come  as  soon  as  we  can 
accommodate  them.  The  majority  are  unable  to  pay  the  full  price  of 
board,  but  give  about  what  the  expense  of  living  at  home  would  be. 
The  opening  of  the  school  last  Fall  in  a  more  central  location  and  larger 
building  proved  to  be  quite  an  incentive  and  many  new  pupils  were 
added  to  our  roll. 

Living  in  the  city  has  brought  me  nearer  to  the  Chinese  and  the 
oversight  of  the  school  has  been  exercised  to  better  advantage.  Our 
new  teacher  from  the  True  Light  Seminary  in  Canton  is  very  popular. 
Several  of  the  girls  are  from  well-to-do  families,  but  after  hearing  of 
Jesus  at  school  they  refuse  to  join  in  the  idol  and  ancestral  worship 
in  their  homes. 

When  visiting  a  village  a  few  miles  distant,  I  met  two  girls  who  de- 
sired to  attend  school.  Their  father  was  glad  to  have  them  do  so, 
and  they  came  with  me.  After  a  few  days,  the  grandfather  came  in 
my  absence  and  took  them  away.  I  inquired  the  reason,  and  learned 
that  the  parents  had  been  informed  that  I  would  dig  out  the  eyes  of 
the  girls,  so  I  judge  that  they  consider  themselves  very  fortunate 
in  rescuing  their  offspring  when  they  did. 

The  industrial  department  for  the  boarding  pupils  was 
opened  with  the  hearty  concurrence  of  both  pupils  and  parents. 
The  older  girls  help  in  the  kitchen,  also  in  sweeping  and  clean- 
ing. The  sewing  class  has  already  completed  a  ntimber  of 
garments  and  helped  in  the  making  of  shoes,  while  the  smaller 
ones  are  learning  to  prepare  the  hemp  thread  ready  for  weav- 
ing. 

At  the  weekly  prayer  meeting  with  the  girls,  as  many  as  20  outside 
women  and  children  have  attended.  A  class  of  three  has  begun  les- 
sons on  the  organ.  I  have  also  visited  a  number  of  villages  and  been 
with  the  Bible  women  to  many  homes  in  the  city,  where  there  has 
usually  been  a  good  opportunity  to  tell  of  the  love  of  Jesus  to  the 
crowds  who  gather  to  see  the  foreigner. 

After  the  series  of  meetings  held  in  the  winter,  at  which  time  many 
of  our  helpers  developed  a  stronger  desire  to  win  souls,  the  inquirers' 
class  increased  to  an  average  attendance  of  about  20.  The  Sunday- 
school  class  for  girls  has  also  grown  in  numbers,  the  usual  attend- 
ance ranging  from  30  to  40. 

MEDICAL  WORK.— Forman  Memorial  Hospital— The 
hospital  was  reopened  on  Dr.  Dobson's  return  from  furlough. 
While  he  was  in  America  many  chronic  cases  accumulated 
awaiting  his  return.  When  opening  day  came,  these  cases  be- 
gan to  fill  up  the  wards. 

There  has  been  no  native  assistant  since  the  hospital  reopened.  In 
his  place  one  man  and  one  woman  have  been  partially  trained  as  nurses. 
This  arrangement  has  thrown  more  details  on  the  physician.  He  has 
rarely  left  the  hospital  compound  except  to  make  professional  calls  or 
to  attend  service  on  Sunday. 


SOUTH  CHINA— YEUNG  KONG.  163 

Many  more  of  the  better  class  have  been  patients  at  the  hospital. 

Professional  calls  have  been  made  in  many  families  of  the  well  to  do. 

Reputation   has   extended   so   that  now   patients  come   from   long   dis- 
tance?. 

Dr.  Dobson  endeavors  to  carry  on  the  work  as  cheaply  as 
possible,  the  annual  expenditure  being  only  $400  gold,  besides 
salary  of  foreign  physician.  Of  this  amount  $100  is  raised  on 
the  field.  In  spite  of  the  meager  sum  mentioned,  and  the  pres- 
ence of  only  one  physician,  the  increased  work  of  the  hospital 
has  been  successfully  carried  on.  Dr.  Dobson  has  seen  every 
one  of  the  3,500  dispensary  cases ;  has  prescribed  for  an  aver- 
age of  thirty  ward  patients  twice  daily ;  an  average  of  over 
five  operations  twice  weekly,  every  one  of  which  has  been  done 
by  him. 

With  a  few  exceptions,  every  tooth  pulled  and  every  wound  dressed 
has  been  personally  done.  Anaesthetizing  has  been  partially  attended 
to  by  the  druggist.  City  calls  and  office  calls  amount  to  nearly  1,000. 
Other  duties  are  superintending  the  Sunday-school,  and  Treasurer  of 
the  Station.  This  report  is  being  written  at  4.30  A.  M.  In  addition,  it 
is  a  pleasure  to  conduct  morning  and  evening  prayers  ten  times  a  week. 

Operations  were  performed  as  follows  (under  anaesthetic)  :  Upon: 
the  eye,  cataract,  25;  others,  59;  rectal,  36;  hand,  10;  skin,  28;  tumors,. 
6;  malignant  tumors,  6;  genito-urinary,  13;  wounds,  2;  bones,  12; 
hernia,  i;  ear,  2;  nose,  4;  glands,  6;  miscellaneous,  20. 

Many  kind  friends  in  the  United  States  have  contributed  to  the 
repair  fund.  We  have  added  a  story  to  the  employees'  quarters,  built 
two  private  wards  for  women,  enlarged  the  gatehouse,  and  built  a  gate- 
man's  lodge,  repainted  the  wood  work,  and  a  lot  of  miscellaneous  re- 
pairing. The  water  works  have  been  enlarged  and  a  water  heating 
plant  has  been  presented  through  the  friends  in  Jersey  City.  The  hos- 
pital has  received  five  folding  spring  beds  from  one  of  the  elders  in 
Jersey  City;  also  five  quilts  given  by  various  aid  societies  through  the 
efforts  of  Mrs.  Bruce.  We  wish  a'ou  could  hear  the  thanks  of  the  pa- 
tients for  these  benefits. 

Regarding  the  progress  of  the  Gospel  among  the  patients,  we  wish 
more  definite  results  could  be  chronicled.  Better  attention  has  been 
given  at  prayers.  Nearly  every  patient  says  he  wishes  us  to  come  and 
preach  the  Gospel  at  his  home.  Recently  one  patient  has  entered  the 
Church  and  four  in-patients  are  now  in  the  inquirer's  class.  I  contin- 
ually see  former  patients  present  at  church  services. 

Out-patients:  men.  new,  608;  returned,  943;  w'omen,  new,  423; 
returned,  799.  Office  calls  and  visits  at  homes,  923.  Patients  in  wards : 
men,  170;  women,  66;  a  total  of  236.  Surgical  operations:  in  operating 
room,  228;  in  dispensary,  28;  total,  256.   Teeth  extracted,  41. 

Evangelistic  work  among  women  in  the  hospital  has  been 
carried  on  as  usual  by  Mrs.  Dobson.  A  Bible  woman  talks 
to  the  dispensary  patients  a  couple  of  hours  every  day,  which 
means  that  about  500  women  have  heard  the  life-giving  mes- 
sage during  the  year. 

Class  work  in  the  wards  has  been  very  satisfactorj-,  the  aim  having 
been  to  have  Bible  verses,  commandments,  Lord's  Prayer  and  hymns 
memorized  so  as  to  never  be  forgotten  by  these  poor  ignorant  people 


164  SOUTH  CHINA— UEN-CHOU. 

unable  to  read  a  word.  A  large  number  have  read  simple  books  and 
learned  the  Catechism. 

During  the  latter  part  of  the  year  a  new  Bible  woman  has  lived  on 
the  place  and  given  half  her  time  to  this  work;  also  has  accompanied 
a  number  of  patients  to  home  villages  and  talked  to  large  numbers  of 
people.  Advance  along  this  line  will  be  the  chief  endeavor  of  the  com- 
ing year.  Bible  lessons  and  talks  on  hj-giene  have  been  eagerly  attended 
as  often  as  I  was  able  to  give  them. 

Woo  Ong  Che,  the  itinerating  Bible  woman,  has  done  excellent  work 
in  the  country  and  reports  the  attitude  of  the  people  changing  to  friend- 
liness and  eagerness  to  hear  her  message. 

Mrs.  Marshall  has  devoted  much  time  to  the  training  class. 
Seven  women  were  taught.    Mrs.  Marshall  writes : 

We  had  the  joy  of  seeing  two  begin  regular  evangelistic  work,  one 
in  the  hospital,  the  other  in  the  city  and  out-stations,  though  they  still 
continue  their  studies.  A  third,  who  has  studied  for  eighteen  months 
without  financial  aid,  has  given  several  hours  a  week  to  work  in  the 
hospital  wards,  and  promises  to  make  a  good  helper.  Only  one  other 
woman  has  been  helped.  She  is  the  wife  of  a  theological  student,  our 
policy  being  to  give  the  wives  of  our  helpers  some  education  where 
it  is  possible. 

Less  time  than  usual  has  been  available  for  visiting.  All  of  the 
Christian  women  within  easy  distance  have  been  visited,  also  most  of 
the  inquirers,  but  many  invitations  from  outsiders  have  had  to  be  de- 
clined. Many  callers  have  been  entertained  here,  chiefly  from  the  fam- 
ilies of  the  gentry  or  official  class. 

The  Bible  woman  under  my  charge  has  done  good  work  in  the  city 
and  neighboring  villages,  and  the  senior  members  of  the  training  class 
have  also  done  hpuse-to-house  work.  A  large  number  of  non-Chris- 
lian  women  hear  the  Gospel  at  the  Sunday  services,  especially  since 
the  new  chapel  has  been  in  use.  Five  women  have  been  baptized  here 
during  the  year  and  there  is  now  a  class  of  about  twenty  inquirers  under 
instruction. 

A  number  of  women  whose  domestic  duties  will  not  permit  them  to 
study  show  a  desire  to  learn  to  read,  and  my  Sunday-school  class  now 
has  an  enrollment  of  fifteen  women  who  can  read  the  lesson,  besides 
several  who  are  used  as  teachers.  Many  others  learn  to  read  a  single 
-verse  for  the  Thursday  prayer  meeting. 

LIEN-CHOU  STATION. 

We  trust  that  many  in  the  home  churches  have  been  think- 
ing and  praying  during  the  year  for  the  heroic  and  devoted 
little  company  of  missionaries  who  have  reopened  this  Station, 
.hallowed  by  the  blood  of  martyrs.  With  no  thought  of  them- 
selves, they  went  back  as  soon  as  the  authorities  would  permit 
the  reoccupation  of  the  Station.  They  are  busily  and  happily 
at  work  erecting  new  buildings  in  place  of  those  destroyed  by 
the  mob,  gathering  together  the  scattered  Christians,  and,  as 
fast  as  the  building  operations  permit,  reorganizing  the  evan- 
gelistic and  educational  work  of  the  Station.  While  some  of 
the  people  have  been  suspicious,  many  have  shown  a  kindly 
interest  in  the  missionaries.     The  meetings  are  being  largely 


SOUTH  CHINA— LIEN-CHOU.  163 

attended  and  there  appears  to  be  no  reason  to  anticipate  further 
trouble.  But  the  loneliness  and  isolation  of  this  remote  Sta- 
tion are  great,  and  while  the  missionaries  appear  to  be  as 
safe  as  missionaries  elsewhere  in  China,  the  peculiar  circum- 
stances call  for  special  sympathy  and  prayer. 

Although  there  have  been  armed  clan  fights  in  the  villages  in  our 
immediate  neighborhood,  we  are  glad  to  report  no  open  opposition  was 
offered  to  us  or  to  our  work.  It  is  undoubtedly  true  that  many  suffer 
our  presence  grudgingly.  We  feel  that  the  most  opposition  is  to  be 
found  in  the  small  villages  adjoining  the  Mission  premises,  and  not  so 
much  from  Lien  Chou  City  nor  the  outlying  districts.  Lien  Chou  City 
is  reserved  but  not  openly  opposing  us ;  we  are  praying  and  working  to 
remove  this  barrier.  The  outside  districts,  at  present,  are  the  most  re- 
ceptive. i\Iost  of  the  faithful  church  members  are  there,  and  the  schools 
are  filled  from  the  same  source ;  likewise  a  large  percentage  of  the  dis- 
pensary patients. 

The  officials  have  shown  a  friendly  interest  in  all  of  our  work.  Inas- 
much as  the  title  to  some  portions  of  land  had  been  in  dispute,  it 
was  considered  advisable  to  have  the  Mission  property  outlined  jTublicly 
and,  by  invitation,  all  the  officials  and  the  elders  of  the  village  from 
whom  the  property  was  purchased  were  present  to  locate  the  boundary. 
None  of  the  land  needed  for  Mission  purposes  was  disputed.  The 
village  elders  were  very  urgent  in  their  request  that  the  sites  of  some 
ancient  graves  be  not  enclosed.  For  the  sake  of  their  good  will  and 
to  show  that  we  respect  their  burial  places  their  request  was  granted. 

BUILDING.— In  addition  to  the  buildings  he  put  up  last 
year,  Mr.  Edwards  has  completed  the  new  boys'  school,  oc- 
cupied in  September,  1907 ;  the  church,  occupied  December, 
1907 ;  and  residence  No.  2,  occupied  January,  1908.  In  April, 
Dr.  R.  M.  Ross  began  work  on  residence  No.  3  and  the  Van 
Norden  Memorial  Hospital.  Residence  No.  3  was  occupied  in 
June,  the  hospital  still  being  under  construction.  Much  of  the 
building  material  for  the  Brooks  Memorial  Hospital  has  been 
purchased.  We  are  thankful  that  the  work  of  rebuilding  has 
gone  on  so  rapidly  and  unhindered  by  the  least  opposition. 

EVANGELISTIC. — Lien  Chou. — As  soon  as  the  assembly 
room  at  the  boys'  school  could  be  used,  the  church  services 
were  transferred  to  that  room  and  it  was  not  long  before  the 
place  was  crowded. 

When  the  church  was  completed  another  move  was  made  and  the 
attendance  has  continued  to  increase,  there  being  at  times  500  or  600 
people  at  the  Sunday  services.  The  number  of  applicants  for  admis- 
sion has  largely  increased  also.  Of  these  seventeen  have  been  received, 
the  remainder  being  placed  upon  a  special  roll  for  further  instruction. 

The  Sunday-school  has  been  one  of  the  most  promising 
features  of  the  work.  From  the  time  that  the  church  was  re- 
opened to  the  close  of  the  schools  at  the  end  of  June,  the  aver- 
age attendance  has  been  over  200  and  at  times  has  reached 


166  SOUTH  CHINA— LIEN-CHOU. 

350.     A  weekly  teachers'  meeting-  has  been  held  for  prepar- 
ing the  teachers  for  the  following  Sunday. 

The  regular  midweek  prayer  meeting  and  Christian  Endeavor  meet- 
ing have  been  held  as  in  previous  years.  The  attendance  from  out- 
side the  schools  has  not  been  large.  Some  of  the  older  pupils  have 
taken  their  turn  as  leaders  with  a  greater  degree  of  success  than 
desirable  in  one  respect,  for  the  hour  scarcely  provides  time  in  which 
to  express  themselves. 

Sam  Kong. — While  Miss  Patterson  was  at  Sam  Kong  in 
charge  of  the  girls'  school,  the  interest  in  the  church  services 
was  well  sustained,  but  after  the  removal  of  the  school  at  Lien 
Chou  with  but  an  occasional  visit  from  the  missionary  the 
interest  is  not  so  manifest.  There  are  a  few  faithful  ones,  but 
the  majority  do  not  take  part  in  the  work.  Several  persons 
have  come  before  the  Session,  but  none  were  yet  ready  to  be 
admitted. 

Kang  Hau. — On  account  of  the  distance  from  Lien  Chou 
and  the  demands  on  the  time  and  energies  at  the  home  Station, 
this  church  has  been  greatly  neglected.  There  has  been  no 
preacher  located  here.  As  there  is  no  material  from  which  to 
make  elders  it  is  planned  to  enroll  the  membership  as  part  of 
the  Lien  Chou  Church. 

Evangelistic  Itinerating. — Six  preachers  and  colporteurs 
have  given  a  part  or  the  whole  of  their  time  to  evangelistic 
work. 

Lien  Chou,  Sam  Kong,  Paak  Fu,  Tsai  Kong,  Shek  Kok,  Tung  Pei 
and  the  surrounding  villages  have  been  the  field  for  evangelistic  work. 
A  week  was  spent  at  Paak  Fu  by  Mr.  Edwards  and  family.  Tung  Pei 
was  visited  and  the  chapel  which  had  been  closed  from  the  time  of 
the  trouble  was  reopened.  Later  in  the  Spring  Mr.  Kunkle  also  spent 
a  few  days  at  Tung  Pei. 

Wong  Pit  Chin  has  continued  her  faithful  work  of  visitation  amongst 
the  Christians  and  inquirers.  Her  health  has  not  been  good,  but  her 
willingness  to  work  has  been  just  as  manifest  as  before. 

Lok  Neung,  at  Sam  Kong,  although  hindered  by  family  cares,  has 
continued  faithfully  in  her  work  of  visitation  there. 

Many  women  have  been  callers  at  the  homes.  These  have 
been  entertained  and  their  curiosity  partially  satisfied.  Some 
are  willing  to  listen  and  we  have  found  a  few  really  hungering 
hearts  plainly  stirred  by  the  Spirit.  The  attendance  of  such 
at  church  services  has  given  cause  for  encouragement.  A 
"Month  of  Study"  was  given  for  women  who  wished  to  learn 
more  of  Christianity.  The  women  were  in  daily  attendance, 
living  on  the  Mission  compound.  Instruction  was  given  by 
Mrs.  Edwards  with  the  assistance  of  Miss  Patterson  and  three 
Bible  women.  The  results  were  so  satisfactory  that  larger 
plans  will  be  made  for  next  year.  This  year  fifteen  women 
availed  themselves  of  the  opportunity.     At  the  communion,  at 


SOUTH  CHINA— LIEN-CHOU.  167 

the  close  of  the  month,  two  of  the  women  were  received  into 
the  church. 

Great  opportunities  have  presented  themselves  in  homes  in  the  city 
and  villages.  The  ladies  of  the  station  visited  many  homes  and  gave 
the  Message.  As  a  rule  they  were  welcomed  and  many  more  invita- 
tions were  received  than  could  be  accepted.  Their  open  homes  included 
the  poorest  as  well  as  a  few  of  the  wealthy.  It  is  evident  that  interest 
in  Christianity  on  the  part  of  women  is  much  more  general  than  in 
former  years. 

EDUCATIONAL.— 5or/  Boarding  School— The  school 
formerly  held  in  a  Chinese  building  in  the  neighboring  village 
of  Ho  Chun  was  transferred  to  Sam  Kong  after  the  massacre. 
On  the  completion  of  the  school  building,  it  was  opened  again 
at  Lien  Chou.  The  enrollment  was  sixty  boarding  and  day 
pupils.    The  highest  class,  in  particular,  has  done  good  work. 

The  deportment  of  the  school  has  been  good.  A  very  friendly 
interest  has  been  shown  toward  Christianity  by  those  in  the  school 
who  come  from  non-Christian  families.  Of  the  pupils  received  into 
the  Church  one  is  from  the  Ins  (an  aboriginal  race),  a  bright  boy,  who, 
we  hope,  will  become  an  evangelist  to  his  own  people. 

Girls'  Boarding  School. — Thirty-eight  pupils  have  been  en- 
rolled during  the  year,  six  of  whom  were  day  pupils.  Others 
had  to  be  refused  admittance  as  there  was  no  room  to  receive 
more. 

The  first  part  of  the  year  school  was  held  in  Sam  Kong  as  in  pre- 
ceding years,  but  the  latter  part  it  was  moved  out  to  Lien  Chou  and 
crowded  into  a  part  of  the  house  for  single  women. 

However,  in  spite  of  cramped  quarters  and  lack  of  well-trained 
Chinese  teachers,  progress  has  been  more  marked  than  in  the  preceding 
i^ear.  Lack  of  teachers  has  been  in  a  measure  remedied  by  having  some 
of  the  work  in  connection  with  the  boys'  school.  Thanks  are  due  Mr. 
Kunkle  for  instruction  in  geography  and  map  drawing. 

Day-schools. — When  the  boarding  school  was  moved  from 
Sam  Kong  to  Lien  Chou,  a  day-school  for  girls  was  opened  in 
Sam  Kong,  Mo  Sz  Nai,  teacher.  Twenty-seven  pupils  were 
enrolled,  and  the  average  attendance  was  excellent.  The  school 
has  been  a  good  evangelistic  agency,  as  most  of  the  children 
come  from  non-Christian  homes,  and  the  parents  frequently 
come  with  the  children  to  visit  the  school  and  sometimes  with 
them  to  church  service. 

MEDICAL. — The  medical  work  has  not  yet  begun  to  be 
aggressively  pushed,  owing  to  the  work  of  language  study  and 
of  building.  Dr.  Carper's  dispensary  for  women,  which  has 
been  open  an  hour  daily  from  January  i  to  July  i,  has  had 
500  patients.  Plans  for  the  Brooks  Memorial  Hospital  have 
been  made,  some  material  bought  and  work  of  leveling  the 
site  begun.

The  Van  Norden  Memorial  Hospital  is  about  completed  and 
will  probably  be  opened  about  Chinese  New  Year.  The  dis- 
pensary for  men  has  been  open  daily  and  we  have  had  cases 
from  several  distant  districts.  A  few  out-patients  have  been 
visited.    The  outlook  for  medical  work  is  most  encouraging.

niSSION  IN  GUATEMALA. 

Guatemala  has  an  area  of  63,400  square  miles,  has  a  popu- 
lation variously  estimated  at  1,200,000  to  1,500,000,  composed 
unequally  of  whites.  Mestizos  and  Indians,  the  latter  vastly 
predominating.  The  climate  of  this  republic  is  for  the  most 
part  salubrious.  Our  work  is  at  Guatemala  City,  and  at  Ouezal- 
tenango,  situated  and  occupied  as  follows : 

Guatemala  City  :  60  miles  from  the  sea  port  of  San  Jose ;  occupied 
1882.  Missionaries — Rev.  and  INIrs.  William  B.  Allison,  Dr.  Mary  E. 
Gregg.    Out-station,  San  Augustin. 

QuEZALTENANGo:  125  niilcs  northwest  from  Guatemala  Git}-;  oc- 
cupied 1898.    Missionaries— Rev.  Walker  E.  McBath  and  Mrs.  M'cBath. 

On  Furlough  during  the  Year:     Rev.  and  Mrs.  W.  B.  Allison. 

The  work  of  the  Guatemala  Mission  has  gone  suc- 
cessfully on  this  year,  although  somewhat  retarded  by 
the  fact  that  of  the  five  members  of  the  Mission  two  have 
been  on  furlough  in  the  United  States  and  one  has  been  laid 
aside  from  work  because  of  illness.  The  force  has,  however, 
now  been  increased  by  the  arrival  in  the  home  of  INIr.  and 
Mrs.  McBath  of  a  little  child  and  they  are  surely  to  be  con- 
gratulated that  in  the  midst  of  the  isolation  at  Quezaltenango 
this  new  and  personal  joy  has  come  to  them. 

During  the  absence  of  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Allison  in  the  States, 
Dr.  Mary  Gregg,  with  such  native  aid  as  she  could  secure,  has 
had  to  "stand"  by  and  hold  the  "Missionary  fort"  at  Guatemala 
City.  That  she  has  succeeded  in  her  difficult  task  can  be  seen 
by  reading  the  following  word  from  Mr.  Allison  upon  his 
return : 

We  arc  back  at  our  post  once  more  after  a  most  delightful  and  most 
blessed  furlough,  great!}-  refreshed  in  body,  mind  and  spirit  and  in  the 
best  of  health.  When  our  train  pulled  in  a  large  number  of  our  people 
were  there  to  welcome  us.  I  cannot  tell  you  how  it  thrilled  us 
to  receive  this  welcome  from  these  people  who  have  been  redeemed  from 
terrible  lives  of  sin  and  shame,  but  who  are  now  new  men  and  women 
in  Christ  Jesus.  We  have  found  our  work  in  fine  shape.  Dr.  Gregg  is 
deserving  of  great  credit.  It  is  true  that  she  has  had  the  help  of  the 
representatives  of  the  American  and  British  and  Foreign  Bible  Societies, 
but  she  has  borne  the  responsibility. 

Dr.  Gregg  has  continued  to  receive  her  patients  in  her  little 
house  which  serves  as  a  hospital,  and  daily  there  have  come 
to  her  those  who  being  in  need  of  bodily  help  went  away  not 
only  benefited  physically,  but  also  with  a  new  vision  of  what 
is  meant  by  service  in  the  name  of  Christ  and  a  new  desire 

169 


170  GUATEMALA. 

to  know  more  of  that  interpretation  of  religion  which  makes 
it  not  a  matter  of  rites  and  ceremonies,  of  formality  and  fees, 
but  rather  of  purity,  righteousness  and  truth.  Dr.  Gregg  has  had 
to  meet  all  the  demands  for  help  practically  alone,  with  only 
such  aid  as  could  be  gotten  in  an  emergency.  She  needs  a 
nurse  who  could  also  do  evangelistic  work,  play  the  organ  and 
be  generally  useful,  and  could  some  kind  friend  furnish  the 
necessary  money,  this  would  be  a  splendid  opportunity  to  "lend 
a  hand  at  a  strategic  point." 

Owing  to  the  fact  that  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Allison  have  been  on 
furlough,  there  has  been  no  regular  report  from  their  field,  but 
in  a  letter  received  since  their  return  certain  needs  are  made 
conspicuously  clear. 

In  order  to  carry  on  this  work  we  simply  must  have  an  advance  all 
aiong  the  line.  We  do  not  feel  that  we  can  personally  stand  back  of 
and  meet  the  expenses  for  so  many  things  as  we  have  been  doing  here- 
tofore, out  of  our  own  pockets.  Our  native  helpers  have  not  been 
receiving  a  living  and  their  pay  must  be  advanced  or  we  can  no  longer 
hold  them.  The  Board  allowed  us  last  year  less  than  $1,500  (gold)  for 
the  carrying  on  all  the  native  work,  the  boys'  school,  house  rent, 
itineration,  medical  expenses,  repairs,  etc.,  etc.  We  are  thankful  for 
our  salaries,  but  we  do  honestly  feel  that  we  should  have  at  least  twice 
$1,500  for  the  prosecution  of  the  work  of  the  Mission.  Our  force  of 
native  workers  should  be  doubled  at  once.  We  are  simply  failing  to  do 
our  plain  duty  because  of  lack  of  funds.  Please  look  over  the  estimates 
of  last  year  as  a  partial  guide.  I  think  that  it  should  be  distinctly  taken 
into  consideration  that  through  our  failure  to  push  on  and  follow  up 
our  work  we  are  losing  some  of  our  very  best  opportunities.  Repeatedly 
the  independent  missionaries  have  come  into  the  field  and  squatted 
down  on  work  opened  by  us,  but  we  were  not  in  a  position  to  say  nay, 
as  we  were  not  proper!}-  looking  after  the  work.  Some  people  from  the 
Baptist  and  also  from  the  Methodist  Church  have  been  here  and  they 
are  writing  home  and  telling  their  people  that  the  work  here  has  not 
been  properly  looked  after  owing  to  lack  of  workers  and  that  the  op- 
portunity is  a  great  one  to-day  in  Guatemala. 

Such  is  the  plea.  A  good  friend  of  Missions  once  remarked, 
'"You  people  send  out  men,  but  you  do  not  give  them  proper 
tools.  This  is  shortsighted."  The  difficulty,  so  far  as  Gtiate- 
mala  and  the  South  American  countries  are  concerned,  is  that 
it  seems  to  be  peculiarly  hard  to  interest  givers  in  these  fields. 
Because  Christianity  in  the  form  of  Roman  Catholicism  has 
been  there  so  long,  one  often  hears  the  statement  that  they  are 
not  proper  ground  for  missionary  propaganda. 

Could  one  spend  half  an  hour  in  conversation  with  almost 
any  one  of  our  missionaries  from  these  lands  of  "Baptized 
Paganism,"  he  would  no  longer  deceive  himself  in  this  way. 
If  the  place  where  immorality  stalks  abroad  in  the  persons 
of  debased  and  polluted  representatives  of  religion,  where  wor- 
ship and  the  sacraments  are  a  matter  of  dollars  and  cents, 
where  the  purity  of  young  womanhood  is  threatened  at  every 


GUATEMALA— STATISTICS.  1 7 1 

street  corner,  is  not  a  field  for  Missions,  then  there  is  no  field 
anywhere  in  the  world. 

In  letters  from  Mr.  and  Mrs.  McBath,  of  Quezaltenango,  in 
which  they  speak  of  their  coming  furlough,  one  recognizes 
how  this  blight  threatens  even  the  missionaries  themselves. 
In  one  letter  is  this  sentence : 

I  need  to  confess  that  we  feel  the  need  for  a  change  on  account  of 
our  spiritual  condition.  We  have  been  so  long  under  the  deadening 
influence  of  constant  contact  with  a  mingled  heathenism  and  indiffer- 
ence to  all  religion,  with  no  Christian  friends  or  companions  near,  that 
we  feel  ourselves  no  longer  able  to  grapple  with  conditions  here  and 
must  seek  some  place  where  we  can  be  among  those  who  will  strengthen 
us. 

This  is  the  cry  of  a  child  of  God  for  a  breath  of  spiritual 
fresh  air,  and  is  all  the  more  significant  when  read  alongside 
of  the  following  plea  for  advance  in  the  Kingdom  of  God. 

Oh.  when  we  look  about  us  and  see  the  need  of  this  dark  land 
and  so  few  to  help  us  and  so  little  with  which  to  carry  on  the  work, 
our  hearts  are  well  nigh  crushed. 

Yesterday  Mr.  McBath,  baby  and  I  started  out  in  our  little  "runabout" 
to  distribute  some  literature  in  a  little  town  not  so  far  distant  from 
Quezaltenango,  but  along  the  road  we  met  one  of  our  believers,  who, 
by  the  way,  is  new  in  the  faith,  but  is  active  in  the  work  by  way  of 
distributing  tracts  and  holding  personal  conversation  with  his  friends, 
and  who  was  on  his  way  to  another  little  town.  In  our  conversation 
with  him  he  spoke  of  the  necessity  of  a  school  for  Indian  boys  and  ex- 
pressed the  desire  of  giving  some  of  his  time  to  teaching  if  such  a 
thing  should  come  to  pass  in  this  city.  He  is  a  man  of  prominence  as 
well  as  energetic  in  his  work  for  the  maintenance  of  his  family,  and 
we  know  that  his  words  and  life  must  have  weight  among  his  fellow- 
men.  He  did  not  know  when  he  spoke  to  us  of  the  need  of  a  school, 
that  he  was  voicing  our  own  sentiments  in  the  matter,  which  only  made 
us  to  realize  more  and  more  the  great  need  to  work  the  works  of 
God  among  this  poor  down-trodden  people  of  Quezaltenango.  We  had 
just  a  few  days  before  (after  much  prayer),  in  making  out  our 
estimates,  asked  for  money  for  a  school  for  Indian  boys.  So  our  faith 
was  strengthened  by  this  coincidence.

niSSIONS  IN  INDIA. 

The  work  of  the  India  Missions  has  advanced  more  encour- 
agingly than  ever  throughout  the  year.  Both  in  the  Punjab  and 
in  the  North  India  Missions  the  missionaries  can  baptize  much 
larger  numbers  of  the  low  caste  people  than  they  are  as  yet 
prepared  to  instruct.  Without  shirking  responsibilities  which 
seem  to  be  clearly  thrown  upon  them,  they  have  nevertheless 
sought  to  pursue  as  conservative  a  course  as  possible.  The  situ- 
ation in  the  two  Missions  is  set  forth  sufficiently  in  the  Station 
reports. 

The  general  conditions  in  India  have  been  more  tranquil 
than  the  previous  year.  The  Nationalistic  Movement  has  con- 
tinued, but  under  more  temperate  direction.  There  have  been 
outrages  attempted  and  some  perpetrated  against  the  British 
officials  and  other  representatives  of  the  Government,  but  for 
the  most  part  these  have  been  the  outcome  of  the  anarchistic 
spirit.  One  such  young  anarchist  attempted  the  life  of  Sir 
Andrew  Fraser,  Lieutenant-Governor  of  Bengal  and  Modera- 
tor of  the  Church  in  India,  and  might  have  succeeded  but  for 
the  failure  of  the  first  cartridge  in  his  revolver  to  explode. 

Influential  men  throughout  the  nation  have  preached  patriot- 
ism. No  more  emphatic  statement  has  been  made  than  by  the 
•  Nawab  of  Rampur,  in  his  address  to  Sir  John  Hewett,  Lieu- 
tenant-Governor at  Aligarh  in  February,  1909.  His  Highness 
said : 

We  must  not  be  anything  but  loyal,  because  we  finally  believe  that  the 
work  of  the  Government  of  the  great  Empire  has  been  placed  by  the 
inscrutable  decree  of  Providence  upon  the  broad  shoulders  of  the 
British  race,  under  wdiose  protection  we  now  live  in  peace  and  pros- 
perity. To  them  was  given  the  power  of  Government,  of  gradually 
guiding,  persuading  and  leading  the  people  of  this  country  to  the  noble 
goal  of  civilization.  We  should  not  be  blind  to  what  the  British  have 
done  in  India  in  so  short  a  time.  From  the  highest  peak  of  the  Hima- 
layas to  Cape  Comorin  every  city  and  village  bears  the  evidence  of  their 
labor  and  courage.  There  would  have  been  no  roads,  docks,  harbors, 
and  canals  unless  the  Government  had  established  them.  In  the  last 
fifty  years  they  have  transformed  India.  Behold  a  network  of  some 
28,000  miles  of  railway  which  carry  19,500,000  passengers  and  44,000,000 
tons  of  goods  more  or  less  every  year.  Railways  have  given  to  the  popu- 
lation throughout  India  an  impulse  of  activity  which  in  no  other  way 
could  have  been  communicated.  Since  the  transfer  of  the  Government  of 
India  to  the  Crown  of  England  just  fifty  years  ago  Rs.  4,500,000,000  has 
been  raised  and  spent  on  railways  and  canals  alone,  under  the  guarantee 
of  the  Secretary  of  State.  If  India  is  poor  now  with  so  many  railways, 
which  are  the  means  of  quick  transfer  and  consequently  a  flourishing

state  of  Indian  trade,  which  is  evidenced  by  the  overcrowded  goods  and 
go-downs  in  every  railway  station  as  you  pass,  what  must  have  been 
the  poverty  of  India  fifty  years  since?  And  yet  no  mention  of  the 
poverty  of  those  days  is  made  by  the  anti-British.  Is  it  just  or  hon- 
est to  blame  the  Government  for  those  misfortunes  which  are  beyond 
human  control?  Could  any  Government,  past  or  present,  have  pos- 
sibly mitigated  those  misfortunes  to  the  extent  that  the  present  British 
Government  has  done?  Look  at  the  marvelous  irrigation  works  !  In  the 
whole  of  India  the  British  Government  supervises  and  manages  some 
43,000  miles  of  canals,  by  which  20,000,000  acres  of  land  are  irrigated. 
No  Government  in  the  world  can  show  a  nobler  record  of  what  they 
have  done  for  those  whom  they  govern.  Little  is  known  of  the  famines 
which  devastated  India  before  the  era  of  British  rule,  but  the  records 
of  the  terrible  famine  of  1769  are  still  extant.  No  language  can 
fully  describe  the  suffering  caused  by  that  famine,  which  cost  Bengal 
one-third  of  its  population.  It  is  not  difficult  to  imagine  what  the 
severity  of  the  famines  of  pre-British  rule  must  have  been  when  the 
mitigating  influences  of  railways  and  canals  and  the  help  of  the  British 
officials  were  absent.  If  such  manifestations  of  disloyalty  were  shown 
in  any  other  country  to  a  Government  having  the  power  and  resources 
of  the  British  Government,  they  would  not  have  met  with  such  gentle 
preventive  measures.  But  it  must  be  distinctly  understood  that  this 
forbearance  is  a  sign  of  strength  rather  than  of  weakness,  and  if  this 
display  of  disloyalty  and  anarchy  continues,  who  can  say  but  that  even 
this  benevolent  Government  will  not  be  forced  to  take  those  strong 
measures  which  these  so-called  patriots  so  richly  deserve?  If  the  Brit- 
ish rule,  as  the  enemies  of  India  would  like,  were  to  disappear  from 
it,  the  horror  and  misery  of  the  people  would  be  indescribable.  The 
fifty  years  that  India  has  been  directly  under  the  Crown  have  brought 
to  her  many  blessings.  There  is  no  department  of  life  in  which  the 
people  of  this  country  have  not  prospered,  and  the  promises  made  to 
you  by  Her  late  Majesty,  Queen  Victoria,  in  the  following  passage 
have  been  fully  carried  out :  "We  hold  ourselves  bound  to  the  na- 
tives of  our  Indian  Empire  by  the  same  obligations  of  duty  which  be- 
long to  all  our  other  subjects,  and  these  obligations  of  duty  by  the 
blessings  of  Almighty  God  we  shall  faithfully  and  conscientiously  ful- 
fill. Firmly  relying  ourselves  on  the  truth  of  Christianity  and  acknowl- 
edging with  gratitude  the  solace  of  religion,  we  disclaim  alike  the 
right  and  the  desire  to  impose  our  convictions  on  any  of  our  subjects. 
We  declare  it  to  be  our  royal  will  and  pleasure  that  none  be  in  any 
wise  favored,  none  molested  or  disquieted,  by  reason  of  their  religious 
faith  or  observances,  but  that  all  shall  enjoy  alike  the  equal  and  im- 
partial protection  of  the  law;  and  we  do  strictly  charge  and  enjoin  all 
those  who  may  be  in  authority  under  us  that  they  abstain  from  all  in- 
terference with  the  religious  belief  or  worship  of  any  of  our  subjects 
on  the  pain  of  our  highest  displeasure.  And  it  is  our  further  will  that 
so  far  as  it  may  be,  our  subjects  of  whatever  race  or  creed  be  freely 
and  impartially  admitted  to  offices  in  our  service,  the  duties  of  which 
they  may  be  qualified  by  their  education,  ability  and  integrity,  duly  to  dis- 
charge." Gentlemen,  all  the  promises  made  by  that  gracious  Sovereign 
are  being  strictly  kept.  Her  commands  have  been  implicitly  obeyed  by 
her  servants.  The  most  absolute  and  perfect  toleration  ever  known 
in  the  history  of  the  world  has  been  practiced  in  India  by  the  English, 
and  the  people  of  the  country  have  been  admitted  to  the  highest  offices, 
and  in  every  possible  branch  of  administration  everything  has  been 
done,  and  it  is  being  done,  to  give  the  people  of  this  country  the 
fullest  benefit  of  civilization. 


PUNJAB  MISSION. 

The  field  occupied  by  the  Punjab  Mission  of  the  Presbyterian 
Church  in  the  United  States  of  America  comprises  a  territory 
extending  from  Saharanpur  on  the  east  to  Lahore  on  the  west, 
a  distance  of  about  250  miles,  and  from  the  Himalaya  Moun- 
tains on  the  north  to  an  indefinite  line  on  the  south.  Within 
these  boundaries  other  Missions  have  undertaken  a  work, 
thus  limiting  the  dimensions  of  the  field. 

The  field  thus  delimited  comprises  an  area  of  about  20,000 
square  miles.  Lying  on  the  border  is  much  territory  as  yet 
unoccupied,  into  which  occasional  tours  are  made  by  the 
missionaries  and  their  evangelists. 

Within  this  territory  there  are  eighty-eight  towns  and  cities 
and  14,230  villages,  comprising  a  population  of  7,566,412. 
Considered  from  a  religious  standpoint  the  population  may  be 
thus  divided: 

Hindus 3-736,445 

Moslems 2,923,835 

Sikhs 882,783 

Christians 23 ,349 

Included  in  what  is  here  designated  "Hindu  population" 
are  838,410  low  caste  people,  of  whom  one-fourth  are  Chuhras 
and  three-fourths  Chamars. 

The  actual  population  of  the  Punjab  Mission  districts   is 

5,694,967- 

To  meet  the  evangelistic  requirements  of  this  field  a  mis- 
sionary force  is  needed  as  follows: 

Foreign  missionaries  and  their  wives 60 

Single  lady  missionaries 120 

Licentiate  or  ordained  Indian  ministers 120 

Indian  teachers  and  readers 1,200 

This,  it  may  be  remarked,  is  a  conservative  estimate  of  the 
working  force  needed  in  this  field. 

The  present  force  in  the  field,  including  those  at  home  on 
furlough,  is:  24  foreign  missionaries,  and  their  wives  (iS)  = 
42;  18  foreign  single  lady  missionaries,  not  including  five 
foreign  lady  teachers  and  two  lay  missionaries,  besides  18  lady 
teachers  employed  in  this  country  as  teachers  in  Dehra, 
Saharanpur  and  Landour;  27  ordained  Indian  missionaries 
and  ministers  in  Mission  employ;  22  Indian  licentiates;  515 
male  teachers  and  preachers;  63  Indian  women  as  teachers. 
176 


PUNJAB.  177 

This  exhibit  shows  that  in  point  of  numbers  our  force  of 
foreign  missionaries  must  be  increased  nearly  threefold.  The 
Indian  evangelistic  force  must  be  multiplied  by  three,  and  our 
teaching  force  must  be  increased  fivefold. 

EDUCATIONAL  WORK  OF  THE  MISSION.— 

For  Indian  Christians  there  are  two  High  Schools,  one  for  boys  and 
the  other  for  girls;  two  Industrial  and  Orphan  Schools,  one  for  boys 
and  the  other  for  girls,  both  graded  as  middle  schools;  two  Training 
Schools  for  village  boys  and  girls,  one  for  each  sex,  and  sixteen  priinar^^ 
village  schools  for  village  Christians.  There  is  also  a  Woman's  High 
School  and  College  for  Europeans  and  Eurasians  at  Landour,  where 
Indian  Christian  girls  may  also  be  received. 

For  non-Christians  there  are  now  five  High  Schools  and  one  middle 
school  for  boys.  Connected  with  these  are  thirteen  branch  .schools 
of  the  primary  grade,  three  middle  schools  for  girls  and,  separate  from 
these,  ten  primary  girls'  schools.  At  the  head  of  this  system  is  the 
Forman  Christian  College  for  young  men,  affiliated  with  the  Punjab 
University,  to  which  young  women  may  also  be  admitted. 

In  all  there  are  two  colleges,  seven  high  schools  which  include  all 
grades,  four  separate  middle  schools,  twenty-three  primary  schools  at 
central  stations,  and  sixteen  village  schools. 

The  total  enrollment  at  these  schools  in  1908  was  as  follows: 

Forman  Christian  College .^ 43  7 

Woodstock  High  School  and  College .* 156 

High  Schools  for  Christians 282 

High  Schools  for  non-Christians 2,164 

Middle  Schools  for  Christians 214 

Middle  Schools  for  non-Christian  boys 199 

Middle  Schools  for  non-Christian  girls 361 

Training  Schools  at  Khanna  and  Ferozepur 35 

Primary  Schools  in  cities 1,426 

Village  Schools  (in  part) 203 

Total 5,432 

The  total  cost  of  these  schools  in  1907  was  Rs.  223,607. 
The  sources  of  income  were : 

Fees,  board,  etc Rs.  107,572 

Grants-in-aid 41,310 

Other  sources  in  field 33.ii5 

Board's  treasury 41,610 

Educaiion  of  Christians. — The  duty  of  educating  and  training  the 
Christians  is  felt  to  be  supreme.  It  is  to  Christian  schools  that  we  look 
for  trained  men  and  women  who  will  be  able  to  lead  their  countrymen 
into  an  intelligent  knowledge  of  the  Scriptures  and  the  doctrines  of  the 
Christian  religion.  Educated  men  and  women  are  wanted  for  the 
work  of  the  Indian  Missions  and  Churches. 

Such  education,  in  the  first  instance,  must  necessarily  be  expensive. 
The  constituency  of  the  schools  is  small,  and  generally  indigent. 
Accordingly  the  schools  for  669  Christian  boys  and  girls  cost  the  very 
large  sum  of  Rs.  103,840  annually.  The  fees  for  schooling  and  board- 
ing bring  in  a  revenue  of  Rs  56,428.  The  Government  grants-in-aid 
amount  to  Rs.  12,869.  There  are  other  revenues  amounting  to  Rs. 
3,199.  This  leaves  a  balance  of  Rs.  31,290  to  be  paid  by  the  Mission 
treasurer.     To  this  sum  should  be  added  the  salaries  of  at  least  two 


178  PUNJAB. 

married  missionaries  and  eight  single  ladies  which  would  be  Rs.  17,200. 
Thus  the  total  net  cost  of  our  schools  for  Christians  is  Rs.  48,490. 

The  average  cost  per  pupil  in  these  Christian  schools,  excluding  the 
salaries  of  the  missionary  teachers,  is  Rs.  47/8.  Including  the  salaries 
of  missionaries  the  cost  is  Rs.  57/4. 

The  village  school  work  of  the  Punjab  Mission  is  the  weak  point 
in  our  educational  scheme.  Some  sixteen  or  eighteen  village  schools 
are  maintained  in  a  desultory  way.  Another  year  will  produce  a 
better  showing. 

Education  of  non-Christians. — The  extensive  system  of  secular 
schools  in  the  Punjab  Mission  grew  out  of  the  circumstances  which 
surrounded  the  founders  of  the  Mission.  The  school  was  then  the  only 
institution  likely  to  strongly  influence  the  minds  of  the  better  classes. 
Moreover,  the  influence  of  the  great  educationalist.  Dr.  Duff,  set  the 
pace  for  our  Mission  in  the  early  years  of  our  history  That  we  have 
done  much  and  are  still  doing  much  in  the  way  of  overthrowing  super- 
stitions, promoting  family  and  social  reforms,  introducing  the  desire 
for  female  education,  etc.,  etc.,  cannot  be  denied.  Some  yoiing  men 
have  been  led  to  confess  their  faith  in  Christ  and  have  brought  strength 
and  dignity  to  the  Church.  Thousands  of  young  men  are  still  being 
influenced  in  their  characters  and  lives  by  our  schools. 

The  schools  for  the  education  of  non-Christian  boys  number  five 
high  schools,  one  middle  school,  and  the  Forman  Christian  College  in 
Lahore.  There  are  also  thirteen  primary  schools  connected  with 
these  high  schools.  The  total  attendance  is  3,754,  and  the  annual  net 
cost  to  the  Mission  is  Rs.  3,548.  If  to  this  we  add  the  salaries  of  the 
missionaries,  who  spend  most  of  their  time  in  this  work,  the  cost  would 
be  Rs.  18,118. 

This  does  not  seem  to  be  too  much  to  pay  for  the  opportunity  of 
educating  3,754  boys  and  men,  most  of  whom  will  some  day  occupy 
important  places  in  India's  economic  and  intellectual  life.  It  is  true 
that  the  outcome  in  the  way  of  conversions  is  small,  but  on  the  other 
hand  every  reform  sect  in  India  is  busy  with  the  school  and  college 
We  cannot  but  believe  we  have  been  rightly  led  in  the  past  to  establish 
these  schools;  and,  if  so,  we  should  hold  the  vantage  ground  which 
education  has  won  for  us  in  our  effort  to  evangelize  the  educated  classes. 

EVANGELISTIC  WORK  OF  THE   MISSION.— 

It  is  generally  conceded  that  wherever  a  chapel  or  hall  can  be  secured 
it  is  best  to  preach  in  a  stated  place.  There  are  six  such  chapels 
within  the  central  stations  of  the  Mission,  two  at  Lahore,  one  at  Lud- 
hianna,  one  at  Ferozepur  Cantonment,  one  at  Hoshyarpur,  and  one  at 
Sabathu.  Regular  preaching  services  are  carried  on  at  Lahore  and 
Ludhiana,  witnin  the  chapel  walls.  At  other  places  mentioned  the 
chapels  are  used  as  reading  rooms,  while  the  preaching  is  usually  done 
outside  the  building. 

The  total  number  of  villages  within  the  bounds  of  the  field  occupied 
by  the  Ptinjab  Mission  is  14,230.  This  field  is  composed  of  Station 
districts  of  indefinite  limits.  In  some  station  districts  the  number 
of  villages  reported  is  far  less  than  the  actual  number  within  station 
limits,  being  the  villages  within  which  they  have  organized  their 
village  work. 

The  Indian  Christian  community,  now  numbering  several  thousand 
souls,  is  scattered  among  more  than  500  villages.  Among  these 
eighty  centres  of  evangelistic  work  have  been  established.  Eighteen 
churches  and  twenty-five  congregations  have  been  organized.  Of  the 
churches  eleven  have  pastors  or  supplies. 

The  churches  established  within  the  bounds  of  the  Punjab  Mission 
number  nineteen.     Of  these   ten  have  pastors,  the  remaining  nine 


PUNJAB.  179 

have  stated  supplies.  The  total  baptized  community  numbers  9,462. 
Adding  the  unbaptized  adherents,  which  are  2,908,  we  have  a  total 
enrollment  of  12,370.  The  greater  portion  of  this  community  is  resi- 
dent in  the  villages,  and  for  thousands  there  are  no  properly  organized 
congregations  or  regular  stated  means  of  worship.  The  officers  in 
these  organized  churches  are:  elders  51,  and  deacons  18.  The  number 
of  Sunday-schools  is  115,  with  108  teachers,  and  a  total  membership 
of  4,266. 

MEDICAL  WORK  OF  THE  MISSION.— 

The  Punjab  missionary  establishment  comprises  three  hospitals 
for  women  and  children:  the  Philadelphia  Hospital  at  Ambala  City, 
the  Woman's  Hospital  at  Ferozepur,  and  the  Denny  Hospital  at 
Hoshyarpur.  At  each  of  these  hospitals  there  is  a  dispensary.  There 
is  also  a  dispensary  for  women  and  children  in  Lahore,  and  a  dispen- 
sary for  all  classes  in  the  city  of  Ferozepur.  A  hospital  and  dispensary 
is  conducted  in  connection  with  the  Leper  Asylum  at  Sabathu. 

Connected  with  these  institutions  are  two  men  and  four  lady 
physicians ;  one  lady  physician  is  working  as  principal  of  the  Ludhiana 
Medical  School. 

The  total  attendance  at  the  hospitals  and  dispensaries  last  year 
was  as  follows:  in-patients  1,257,  ^^d  out-patients  62,667. 

The  inmates  of  the  two  Leper  Asylums  at  Sabathu  and  Ambala 
were  164.  The  Leper  Asylums  have  been  taken  over  by  the  Mission 
to  Lepers,  our  responsibility  being  limited  to  the  general  superintend- 
ence of  them  and  ministering  to  their  spiritual  n^eds. 

LITERARY  WORK.— 

The  Punjab  Mission  has  always  been  distinguished  for  its  activity 
in  the  production  and  publication  of  a  vernacular  literature.  To  it 
must  be  given  the  credit  for  the  setting  up  of  the  first  printing  press 
in  the  Punjab.  Its  missionaries  prepared  the  first  translation  of  the 
New  Testament  and  portions  of  the  Old  Testament  Scriptures  into  the 
Punjabi  language.  They  also  prepared  and  published  the  first  Gram- 
mar and  Lexicon  in  the  Punjabi  language.  They  also  undertook  the 
first  work  of  the  Bible  and  Tract  Societies,  publishing  in  the  Urdu, 
Hindi,  Ptmjabi,  Kashmiri,  and  Persian  languages.  They  published 
the  first  newspaper  in  the  Punjab,  the  Ludhiana  Akhbar,  and  are  now 
the  publishers  of  the  oldest  vemactdar  weekly  newspaper  in  the  pro- 
vince, the  Nur  Afshan.  For  many  years  our  book  depot  was  the  one 
source  of  supply  for  Northwest  India.  Twice  was  this  depot  de- 
stroyed by  fire,  and  twice  restored,  largely  through  the  benevolence 
of  Christian  men  in  civil  and  military  employ. 

The  Nur  Afshan  is  published  in  Persian  Urdu.  It  is  the  only  Chris- 
tian newspaper  in  the  Urdu  language  and  Persian  character  published 
in  the  Punjab.

LUDHIANA  STATION. 

When  the  Mission  was  founded  in  the  year  1S34,  the  pioneer 
missionary,  the  late  Rev.  John  C.  Lowrie,  D.D.,  selected  the 
town  of  Ludhiana  as  the  first  point  to  be  occupied.  Ludhiana 
was  at  that  time  the  frontier  station  and  military  cantonment 
of  the  East  India  Company.  From  this  centre  the  work 
was  extended. 

Ludhiana  has  at  present  a  population  of  48,211  (Census 
1 901),  and  is  the  centre  of  a  district  containing  673,087 
inhabitants.  As  to  its  religious  complexion  the  '  Census 
report  gives  the  following  figures:  Hindus,  269,000;  Sikhs, 
164,919;  Moslems,  235,700;  Jains,  2,532,  and  Christians,  946. 

EDUCATIONAL  WORK.— High  School.— Last  year  there 
were  in  all  139  boys  in  attendance.  The  number  on  the  roll 
this  year  is  ninety-seven,  of  whom  eighty-one  are  boarders 
and  sixteen  day-scholars.     Only  one  boy  is  a  non-Christian. 

The  building  up  of  Christian  character  is  a  principal  object 
of  this  school. 

The  Jagraon  Village  Girls'  School. — Jagraon  is  connected 
with  the  Ludhiana  Station,  but  may  be  regarded  as  a  Woman's 
Rural  Mission  to  women.  It  is  situated  twenty-five  miles 
west  of  Ludhiana,  on  the  Ludhiana  and  Ferozepur  Railway. 
It  contains  about  25,000  inhabitants.  The  Jagraon  Tehsil 
contains  184,795  inhabitants. 

The  attendance  last  year  was  twenty-seven,  of  whom 
twenty-four  were  boarders.  Six  of  the  pupils  are  boys  of 
five  or  six  years.  There  are  no  non-Christian  pupils.  Besides 
their  studies,  the  girls  are  taught  to  do  all  their  own  work — 
cooking,  sweeping,  washing  their  own  clothes.  They  are  also 
taught  how  to  cut  out  and  make  their  own  clothes. 

City  Mission  High  School. — The  religious  influences  of  this 
school  are  many.  In  1908,  notwithstanding  the  closing  of 
two  branch  schools,  the  enrollment  was  407  in  the  main  school 
and  70  in  the  branch  school,  making  a  total  of  477. 

Girls'  Schools. — There  are  two  schools,  one  for  Hindus  and 
the  other  for  Moslems.  The  attendance  last  year  was  fifty. 
This  year  it  is  about  the  same.  The  teachers  are  all  Chris- 
tians, except  two,  one  a  Hindu  and  the  other  a  IMoslem. 


182  PUNJAB— SAHARANPUR. 

EVANGELISTIC  WORK.— There  are  864  villages  in 
this  district.  There  are  sixty  villages  in  which  there  are 
Christian  residents.  Summer  schools  are  held  for  the  workers 
and  such  Christian  men  and  women  as  can  be  induced  to 
attend.  There  are  regular  Church  servcies  held  at  three 
centres. 

The  chief  response  to  the  call  of  the  Gospel  has  been  made 
by  the  poor  and  despised  low  caste  people.  The  number 
of  baptisms  reported  this  year  is  200. 

Zenana  Work. — Mrs.  Prem  Das  has  visited  regularly  in 
twenty  houses  this  year.  Hundreds  of  women  of  the  city 
have  heard  the  Gospel.  Many  of  the  women  have  ceased  to 
believe  in  idol  worship,  and  two  widows  now  pray  to  Christ 
after  their  early  morning  bath,  instead  of  repeating  the  names 
of  Rama  and  Krishna. 

Miss  Ghose  works  mostly  among  Mohammedans,  and  this  year 
has  regularly  visited  seventeen  houses,  in  which  she  has  taught  thirty- 
one  women  and  girls. 

Miss  £annerjee  has  some  very  interesting  and  encouraging  pupils, 
some  of  whom  have  told  her  that  they  believe  in  Christ. 

Miss  Jenks  writes  of  the  work  in  the  Ludhiana  District  as 
follows : 

Nine  different  centres  were  visited,  together  with  many  of  the  sur- 
rounding villages.  The  people  are  more  friendly  than  formerly,  and 
the  district  seems,  as  it  has  for  a  number  of  years  recently,  ripe  fer  an 
ingathering  from  among  the  low  caste  people,  if  only  we  had  more 
Indian  evangelists  and  teachers  working  in  these  villages  all  the  year 
roi:nd.  A  small  school  for  Chuhra  boys  was  kept  open  for  several 
months,  although  several  times  broken  up  by  Sadhus,who  frightened 
the  parents  into  believing  their  children  would  be  carried  off. 

All  the  workers  from  the  district  attended  the  Summer  School 
with  their  families,  as  well  as  many  village  Christians.  For  three 
weeks  classes  were  taught  for  the  different  grades.  Sixty- two  adults, 
of  whom  thirteen  were  women,  were  in  one  or  more  of  the  classes. 


SAHARANPUR  STATION. 

The  city  of  Saharanpur  is  situated  sixty  miles  east  of  Am- 
bala,  on  the  North  Western  Railway.  The  city  has  a  popu- 
lation, predominantly  Mohammedan,  numbering  about  66,000. 
It  is  the  chief  city  in  a  district  possessing  an  area  of  about 
2,228  square  miles.     The  total  population  is   1,045,230. 

EDUCATIONAL  WORK.— 7^^  Industrial  School  and  Or- 
phanage has  an  enrollment  of  115  pupils.  The  larger  boys 
are  taught  some  one  of  four  trades:  Carpentry,  shoemaking, 
blacksmithing  and  tailoring.  The  smaller  boys,  and  for 
part  of  the  time  the  larger  boys,  are  taught  in  the  vernacular 
middle  school  connected  with  the  institution. 


PUNJAB— SAHARANPUR.  183 

We  have  designed  and  made  an  improved  school-desk  during  the 
year,  which  has  met  with  the  approval  of  European  School  Inspectors. 

A  power  flour-mill  has  been  built  and  put  up.  We  are  able  to  turn 
out  about  eighty-two  pounds  of  flour  per  hour,  but  if  we  had  a  larger 
engine  we  should  be  able  to  turn  out  three  times  as  much.  Three  boys 
were  granted  journeymen's  certificates. 

The  Saharanpur  Theological  Seminary  was  established  in 
1883  for  the  training  of  Indian  Christian  students  for  the 
ministry.  Three  students  in  the  Senior  Class  passed  the 
final  examination  and  received  diplomas  or  certificates.  One 
went  back  to  the  Hoshyarpur  District,  and  has,  we  are 
grieved  to  say,  apostatized  to  Mohammedanism. 

In  the  Training  School  at  the  end  of  the  year  there  were  ten  students. 
Of  these,  eight  passed  and  were  given  certificates.  Six  of  them  have 
since  been  employed  in  the  Punjab  and  North  India  Missions;  the  other 
two  joined  the  Junior  Class  of  the  Seminary  in  January,  1908.  The 
total  enrollment  at  that  time  was  twenty-seven.  Of  these,  three 
belong  to  other  Missions  than  our  own,  eleven  are  connected  with  the 
North  India  Mission,  and  eight  with  the  Punjab  Mission. 

These  are  small  numbers,  not  enough  to  meet  one-tenth  part  of  our 
present  need.  But  there  is  need  for  another  class  of  workers.  Realiz- 
ing this,  the  Missions  have  recommended  a  plan  which  provides  for 
two  separate  courses  of  study  at  different  times  of  the  year,  one  for 
licentiates  and  ordained  ministers,  such  as  have  been  trained  in  the 
Seminary  heretofore,  from  October  to  February;  another  for  village 
pastors  from  March  to  Jvtly.  An  attempt  has  been  made  to  oi-ganize 
the  students  into  an  effective  aggressive  company.  A  large  map  of 
the  district  on  a  scale  of  one  inch  to  the  mile  has  been  secured  and 
hung  up  in  a  conspicuous  place  in  the  Seminary  Hall,  where  it  may  be 
seen  and  studied  both  by  students  and  teachers.  The  students  are 
divided  into  parties  of  two  each,  and  to  each  party  a  definite  field  is 
assigned,  containing  some  eight  or  ten  villages.  Thus  within  a  small 
area  in  the  immediate  vicinity  of  Saharanpur,  covering  some  fifty 
or  sixty  miles,  nearly  every  village  has  been  visited,  some  of  them  three 
or  four  times  a  month.  The  result  of  this  work  is  seen  in  a  considerable 
number  of  inquirers,  some  of  whom  have  been  baptized,  while  many 
others  are  being  prepared  for  baptism. 

Mrs.  Velte  writes: 

The  Training  School  for  the  wives  of  students  forms  an  important 
part  of  the  work  carried  on  in  connection  with  the  Seminary.  Here 
it  is  that  the  women  are  daily  gathered  together  and  systematically 
instructed  in  Biblical  knowledge  and  other  studies,  which  are  calculated 
to  make  them  helpful  co-workers  with  their  husbands. 

The  work  in  this  school  is  not  carried  on  without  numerous  draw- 
backs. Each  student,  as  a  rule,  has  one  baby  or  more,  as  the  case  mav 
be,  who  employ  their  shining  hours  in  crying,  or  tearing  books,  or 
snatching  slate  pencils,  and  generally  making  it  their  business  in  fife 
to  interrupt  the  studies  of  their  maternal  relatives  and  try  to  the 
utmost  the  patience  of  the  teachers. 

In  arithmetic,  every  stage  from  learning  to  count  and  write  figures 
up  to  the  end  of  vulgar  fractions  has  been  taught.  Roman  Urdu, 
Persian  Urdu,  Hindi  writing,  geography  from  the  maps,  sanitation, 
common  diseases  and  their  remedies,  needlework,  dictation,  singing, 
and  a  little  English  to  three  pupils,  have  formed  the  bulk  of  the  cur- 
riculum. 


184  PUNJAB— SAHARANPUR. 

A  weekly  Women's  Presbyterial  Missionary  Society  is  held.  The 
meeting  is  presided  over  by  one  of  the  members,  and  all  take  some  part 
in  the  meeting. 

District  Work. — Mr.  Velte  reports: 

I  believe  it  was  Emerson  who  said  that  America  was  only  another 
word  for  opportunity.  Considered  from  the  missionary  point  of  view,  the 
same  name  may  to-day  be  given  to  India.  That  word  should  be  written 
in  large  letters  over  the  Saharunpur  District,  and  over  the  whole  of  the 
Punjab  Mission  field.  About  a  month  ago,  Mr.  Roy  was  making  a  tour 
through  part  of  the  district,  when  one  day,  while  traveling  slowly  over 
a  rough  village  road,  he  noticed  a  man  rvmning  hard  behind  him.  On 
his  coming  up  with  the  cart,  the  man  asked  if  he  were  a  Padri  Sahib, 
and  on  his  receiving  an  answer  in  the  affirmative  said,  "I  want  to 
become  a  Christian ;  won't  you  baptize  me  ? "  The  carriage  was  stopped 
to  exainine  this  candidate  so  eager  for  baptism.  A  few  questions 
brought  out  the  fact  that  the  man's  knowledge  of  Christianitj'  was 
almost  nil.  His  chief  motive  was  just  this:  "  My  father  is  a  Christian; 
all  my  relations  are  Christians.  I  do  not  want  to  be  the  only  one  left 
out."  And  so  he  pleaded  most  earnestly  to  be  baptized,  promising 
that  he  would  learn  all  a  Christian  ought  to  know,' if  we  would  only 
teach  him.  This  is  the  opportunity  of  the  mass-movement.  The  mis- 
sionary who  hesitates  to  receive  such  a  candidate,  or  who  would  first 
put  him  on  a  long  trial  to  test  his  motives,  is  likely  to  miss  the  oppor- 
tunity. One  of  the  most  hopeful  features  of  this  movement  is  that  it 
runs  along  the  line  of  family  relationships,  and  we  are  much  less  likeh" 
to  meet  with  disappointment  when  baptizing  a  whole ,,  family  than 
when  baptizing  a  single  individual. 

During  the  last  year,  Lajpat  Rai,  in  a  lecture  delivered  at  Allaha- 
bad, remarked  that  he  would  urge  two  things  upon  all  Hindus  who 
loved  their  country  and  wanted  it  to  become  a  self-governing  nation: 
(i)  Not  to  send  their  children  to  Christian  schools  and  colleges;  for 
by  attending  such  institutions  they  might  become  Christians,  and  so 
would  be  lost  to  the  caiise  of  India;  (2)  to  take  immediate  steps  to 
ameliorate  the  condition  of  the  low  castes  of  India,  othera'ise  the 
missionaries  would  convert  them  to  Christianit}',  and  so  a  large 
number  of  people  would  be  alienated  from  the  Indian  people.  One 
regrets  that  there  is  so  much  in  the  present  national  movement  that 
is  anti-Christian;  but  it  is  well  for  us  to  note  the  two  points  where 
those  who  are  hostile  to  Christianity  think  that  the  missionary's 
eft'orts  must  be  special!}'  resisted,  and  where,  in  their  opinion,  the 
missionary  is  likely  to  be  most  successful.  Are  the}^  not  the  points 
where  the  emphasis  needs  to  be  placed  in  our  present  Mission  policy? 
Let  us  strengthen  every  IMission  school  and  college,  no  matter  Avhat 
the  cost,  and  let  us  at  the  same  time  utilize  the  opportunity  of  the  low 
caste  movement  to  the  fullest  extent. 

The  work  in  the  Saharanpur  District  is  carried  on  from  seven  differ- 
ent centres.  The  total  number  of  baptisms  during  the  year  was 
188,  of  whom  134  were  adults.  There  are  Christians  now  in  sixty 
villages,  the  total  number  being  736. 

Central  Girls'  School. — This  school  is  for  both  Hindu  and 
Moslem  girls.  The  attendance  last  year  was  seventy-one, 
but  the  average  number  present  was  only  forty-five.  They 
are  all  day-scholars.  One  little  girl  is  a  Christian.  This 
school  is  the  only  agency  for  reaching  the  women  and  girls 
of  Saharanpur. 


PUNJAB— JULLUNDUR.  185 

SABATHU  STATION. 

""  EVANGELISTIC  WORK.— Of  the   evangelistic   work   at 
Sabathu  Dr.  M.  B.  Carleton  writes: 

This  work  was  carried  on  from  three  centres  by  the  catechists  and 
colporteurs  located  at  these  places.  On  certain  days  it  is  house-to- 
house  and  shop-to-shop  personal  work,  and  other  days  one  or  more 
villages  are  visited.  On  Thursday  of  each  week  we  have  bazaar 
preaching,  when  all  the  workers  and  voluntary  helpers  meet  together 
with  music  and  singing.  In  the  evening,  we  have  magic-lantern 
lectures  and  more  personal  work  among  the  pilgrims  and  travelers 
who  may  be  stopping  over  night  in  the  best  houses  in  the  bazaar. 
At  these  times  and  places  many  handbills,  tracts,  and  picture  cards 
are  distributed  and  some  Bibles  and  books  sold. 

During  the  year  there  are  many  melas  held  in  various  places  in  this 
district. 

MEDICAL  WORK  AND  LEPER  ASYLUM.— The  num- 
ber of  inmates  on  the  roil  of  the  asylum  is  141.  Fifty  of  these 
were  admitted  this  year,  and  six  of  them  are  Europeans  and 
Eurasians.  Morning  and  evening  prayers  have  been  held 
throughout  the  year,  with  a  more  extended  service  on  Sunday 
conducted  by  the  pastor.  From  twenty  to  twenty-five 
lepers  need  daily  medical  or  surgical  care.  At  any  time,  day 
or  night,  w^e  are  liable  to  be  called  out  by  the  needs  of  the 
lepers.  The  Home  for  the  untainted  children  of  lepers  gave 
shelter  to  seven  boys  and  seven  girls,  a  very  bright  and  happy 
company  of  children,  well  worth  the  care  bestowed  upon  them. 

Nearly  forty-five  lepers  attend  school,  and  are  learning  to 
read  the  Bible.  From  the  asylum  four  adults  were  received 
into  the  church  by  baptism. 

The  number  of  separate  cases  attending  the  dispensary  and 
hospital  was  nearly  4,000;  the  number  of  visits  was  nearly 
10,000;  the  in-door  patients  was  490,  and  the  operations 
277.  More  than  half  of  these  were  operations  requiring  chloro- 
form. 

JULLUNDUR  STATION. 

The  area  of  the  Jullundur  District  is  2,061  square  miles, 
with  a  population  in  igoi  of  1,050,161,  of  which  266,831  belong 
to  the  Kapurthala  State.  Of  this  total  population,  421,452 
are  Hindus,  147,590  Sikhs  and  479,104  Mohammedans.  The 
Christian  population  is  1,713  as  reported  in  1901,  but  now 
2,015.  The  Indian  Christians  now  number  four  or  five 
hundred. 

EDUCATIONAL  WORK.— JtdlundMr  High  School.— This 
school  was  established  more  than  a  half  century  ago,  and 
for  many  years  was  the  only  school  in  the  district.  The 
advance  in  education  is  illustrated  bv  the  fact  that  besides 


18G  PUNJAB-LAHORE. 

a  Government  school  there  is  a  High  School  for  Hindus  and 
Mohammedans. 

The  attendance  at  the  end  of  September  was  299  in  the 
main  school  and  136  in  the  branch  school.  This  is  a  gain  of 
ten  pupils  in  the  main  school  and  six  in  the  branch. 

Schools  for  Non-Christian  Girls. — There  are  three  girls' 
schools.  Miss  Newton  has  also  given  lessons  in  all  the  schools 
in  clay  modeling,  paper  cutting,  needlework,  etc.,  after  the 
fashion  of  the  American  schools.  This  special  work  has 
awakened  the  keenest  interest. 

The  number  of  pupils  enrolled  is  151,  which,  with  fifty-eight 
in  thirty-four  zenanas,  makes  a  total  of  209  women  and  girls 
under  instruction.  The  Widows'  School,  with  fourteen,  had 
an  average  attendance  of  seven. 

As  to  religious  instruction,  all  pupils  learn  the  Catechism; 
and  all  are  taught  the  Sunday-school  lesson  for  the  v/eek. 
There  is  an  attempt  to  pursue  a  graded  course  of  Scripture 
lessons,  beginning  with  the  Old  Testament  stories  and  ending 
with  the  New  Testament.  As  to  the  importance  of  these 
schools,  the  ladies  said: 

They  open  up  the  best  way  to  reach  the  girls  and  for  most  of  them 
the  school  is  the  only  way.  Through  the  schools,  we  are  able  to  reach 
the  homes  of  the  girls. 

EVANGELISTIC  WORK.— 

The  evangelistic  work  at  JuUundur  is  under  the  care  of  Dr.  C.  B. 
Newton.  A  new  and  promising  centre  was  established  at  a  large 
village  called  Pindori,  the  home  of  Faqir  Chand,  a  young  man  baptized 
now  nearly  two  years  ago.  He  was  brought  to  us  here  in  Jullundur 
by  old  Nihala,  a  man  who  has  appeared  in  previous  reports  and  is 
going  to  appear  again  as  a  luminous  figure.  The  dear  old  man  never 
fails  to  go  with  me,  if  I  tour  in  his  neighborhood.  He  has  a  wide  circle 
of  acquaintances  and  relatives  in  scores  of  villages,  and  is  tiniversally 
respected  among  all  classes  and  castes. 

His  influence  and  example  led  to  the  conversion  of  Faqir  Chand, 
familiarly  known  as  Faqiria.  From  the  first  Faqiria  showed,  together 
with  a  simple  and  amiable  disposition,  an  earnest  spirit,  and  like 
Andrew  (John  i  :  41)  sought  to  bring  the  members  of  his  family  to 
Christ. 

LAHORE  STATION. 

In  the  year  1849  Lahore  was  occupied,  the  Rev.  John  New- 
ton and  Rev.  Charles  W.  Forman  being  pioneers.  Lahore  is 
the  capital  of  the  Punjab  and  one  of  the  most  ancient  cities 
in  North  India. 

The  area  of  the  Lahore  Station,  including  the  city  and  the 
three  Tehsils  in  the  district  occupied  by  the  Mission  Station, 
is  1,978  square  miles.  The  population  of  this  district  is 
870,419  including  the  city,  which  has  186,000  inhabitants. 
Of  this  population  538,400  are  Moslems,  214,800  Hindus,  and 


PUNJAB— LAHORE.  187 

112,119    Sikhs.     The    Christian    population    numbers    about 
5,100,  of  which  4,300  are  Europeans  and  Eurasians. 

EDUCATIONAL  WORK.— 7/^^  Forman  Christian  College. 
— There  were  437  students  on  the  roll  the  15th  of  October, 
1908.  Of  these  229  are  Hindus,  145  Mohammedans,  24 
Christians,  36  Sikhs,  and  three  others.  Of  the  Christian 
students,  two  are  young  women.  The  number  on  the  roll 
at  the  same  time  last  year  was  401.  The  increase  has  been  in 
the  number  of  Hindus  and  Sikhs.  There  is  a  slight  falling  off 
in  the  number  of  Christians. 

During  the  last  year  there  have  been  evening  prayers  in 
Kennedy  Hall,  the  hostel  for  Christian  students.  These 
have  been  taken  in  turn  by  the  different  professors  who  live 
in  the  vicinity  of  the  college.  It  is  felt  that  this  is  a  step  in 
advance.  The  Christian  students  have  also  engaged  in  some 
practical  Christian  work. 

There  has  been  a  special  attempt  during  the  past  year  to 
develop  the  spirit  of  helpfulness  among  all  the  students  of 
the  college,  Christian  and  non-Christian  alike.  The  purpose 
which  underlies  this  effort  is  not  to  substitute  philanthropy 
for  religion,  but  to  hold  up  a  life  of  service  as  a  constituent  part 
of  true  religion.  It  is  believed  that  the  student  who  hungers 
to  serve  his  fellow-men  will  discover  sooner  or  later  that  with- 
out the  spirit  of  Him  who  "came  not  to  be  ministered  unto, 
but  to  minister,"  such  aspirations  will  never  be  adequately 
realized.  In  various  ways  they  have  tried  to  help  others, 
some  by  teaching  in  night  schools,  others  by  giving  talks  on 
sanitation  in  their  villages,  and  by  trying  to  correct  miscon- 
ceptions regarding  the  plague  measures  of  Government,  others 
by  establishing  small  loaning  libraries,  others  by  teaching 
their  mothers  and  sisters  how  to  read,  others  by  playing  the 
part  of  peacemakers  and  discouraging  litigation,  still  others 
by  working  to  establish  primary  schools  in  their  villages,  etc., 
etc. 

The  Rang  Mahal  High  School. — This  school  was  established 
immediately  after  the  conquest  of  the  Punjab  in  1849.  It  is 
located  in  the  heart  of  the  walled  city.  The  school  building 
was  originally  an  old  palatial  structure,  which  has  been  added 
to  from  time  to  time,  but  still  needs  extensive  repairs  and 
additions  to  meet  the  requirements  of  a  modern  High  School. 

The  total  attendance  is  747.  There  are  also  four  branch  schools 
connected  with  the  High  School,  with  a  total  attendance  of  462. 

All  other  schools  are  either  outside  or  soon  to  move  outside  the  walls. 
The  High  School  has  the  opportunity  of  working  in  a  way  similar  to 
the  settlement  work  of  Western  lands.  The  maintenance  of  this  sys- 
tem keeps  the  Mission  in  the  closest  possible  touch  with  the  people  in 
the  city. 

The  great  evangelistic  influence  of  this  school  is  to  be  sought   (i) 


188  PUNJAB— LAHORE. 

in  the  fact  that  some  800  famihes  are  thus  kept  in  touch  with  the 
Christian  influence  of  the  school  through  the  boys  who  attend  school; 
(2)  some  hundreds  of  young  men  are  being  taught  the  spiritual  and 
moral  lessons  of  the  Bible  during  every  school-day  in  the  year;  (3) 
besides  this  there  are  always  some  boys  confessedly  interested  in  the 
way  of  salvation  through  "Christ.  One  boy  was  baptized  last  5^ear, 
and  another  boy  was  beaten  by  an  uncle  until  an  arm  was  broken 
because  he  refused  to  spit  on  the  Bible.     This  boy  has  disappeared. 

Girls'  Schools  for  Non-Christians. — There  are  two  schools, 
one  for  Hindus  and  the  other  for  Moslems.  Miss  MacDonald 
reports: 

These  schools  offer  an  excellent  opportunity  of  reaching  a  large 
number  of  girls  just  at  the  age  when  they  can  be  most  easily  impressed. 
On  the  roll  of  the  Alohammedan  school  we  have  at  present  seventy 
girls,  with  an  average  attendance  of  forty-seven.  I  have  had  the 
privilege  of  teaching  the  older  girls  in  a  daily  Bible  class  for  nearly 
two  years.  With  them  in  this  Bible  class  meet  more  or  less  regularly 
several  young  married  women,  who  used  to  be  members  of  the  school 
aiid  now  live  near  by.  They  come  across  the  roofs  and  in  through  the 
windows,  often  bringing  their  babies  on  their  hips.  The  rest  of  the 
school  is  made  up  of  smaller  girls  from  five  to  twelve  years  of  age. 
Although  they  are  all  of  good  caste,  there  is  when  we  first  get  them 
very  httle  of  Oriental  splendor  about  them,  but  a  great  deal  of  Oriental 
dirt;  and,  for  the  most  part,  they  are  so  shy  and  timid,  and  so  utterly 
unaccustomed  to  forming  even  baby  ideas,  that  they  seem  well-nigh  a 
hopeless  undertaking. 

In  the  Hindu  School  we  have  173  on  the  roll  and  an  average  attend- 
ance of  107.  We  follow  the  same  plan  of  Bible  teaching  there  as  in  the 
other  school  and  with  exactly  the  same  result.  The  little  Hindu  girls 
are,  as  a  rule,  quicker  and  brighter  than  the  Mohammedans,  and 
therefore  finish  the  work  of  the  primary  school,  which  is  as  far  as  we 
take  them,  at  an  earlier  age.  They  also  marry  much  younger  than  the 
Mohammedan  girls;  and  that  takes  many" of  them  awaj^  from  us 
at  twelve  years  of  age,  or  3'ounger.  Last  year,  all  the  children 'in 
that  school,  above  the  infants,  about  fifty  in  all,  committed  to  memory 
the  Commandments,  the  Beatitudes,  the  Lord's  Prayer,  the  Parables 
of  the  Prodigal  Son  and  the  Lost  Sheep,  the  first  six  verses  of  John  xv 
and  many  Bible  verses,  besides  having  a  regular  Scripture  lesson  every 
day. 

EVANGELISTIC  VJOKK.— District  Work.— The  work  of 
village  evangelization  is  in  charge  of  the  Rev.  G.  L.  Thakurdas. 
The  following  are  extracts  from  his  report: 

In  the  field  under  my  charge  there  are  eighteen  villages  in  which 
work  has  been  carried  on  during  the  year.  These  may  be  grouped 
around  seven  centres.  Three  of  these  centres  are  at  the  Lahore  Tehsil. 
Four  preachers  and  teachers  work  this  group  of  villages.  There  are 
two  primary  schools,  with  forty-six  pupils.  Several  voluntary 
workers  take  part  in  preaching.  The  total  baptisms  in  the  Lahore 
District  have  been  2S4. 

Zenana  Work. — Miss  MacDonald,  of  Lahore,  writes: 

All  of  my  Saturdays  I  have  devoted  to  zenana  teaching.  I  have 
five  very  interesting  pupils.     The}'  are  all  high  class  Mohammedan 


PUNJAB— AMBALA.  1S9 

ladies  and  very  delightful  to  have  as  friends  as  well  as  pupils.  One 
of  these  women  is  a  leader  of  reform  among  her  own  people;  and, 
although  she  does  not  at  all  suspect  it,  she  is  showing  her  Christian 
teaching  and  working  along  Christian  lines  every  day  of  her  life. 
She  edits  a  paper  for  Mohammedan  women  in  the  Urdu  language,  in 
which  she  gives  suggestions  to  mothers  and  writes  stories  and  poetry 
for  children  which  have  a  decided  Christian  tone. 

Wo)iiaii's  Village  Work. — Miss  Clara  Thede,  whose  lonely 
life  at  Wagah,  in  the  Lahore  District,  is  most  inspiring,  tells 
of  much  calamity  which  overtook  the  villagers  during  the 
year. 

It  was  almost  impossible  to  work.  Fever  everj^vhere,  and  roads 
covered  with  water.  Patients  came,  and  I  could  attend  to  them  and 
tell  them  of  the  good  Physician  who  heals  body  and  soul.  Our  joy 
was  in  the  baptism  of  eight  persons  w^ho  joyfully  came  to  Christ.  First 
a  young  husband  and  wife,  then  an  educated  young  man,  who  was 
longing  to  give  himself  to  Christ;  though  disowned  by  his  family  and 
subject  to  much  ill  treatment,  yet  he  rejoices  in  his  Saviour. 

In  September,  I  got  fever  badly  and  had  to  come  up  to  Dharmsala. 
I  have  not  the  records  of  the  dispensary  here,  but  there  were  about 
5,000  in  attendance. 

MEDICAL  WORK.— Mrs.  Clark  writes  as  follows: 

Our  dispensary  during  the  past  year  has  been  thronged  by  large 
numbers  of  women  from  all  classes  and  religions.  Many  are  deeply 
interested  in  the  Bible  messages  given.  This  year  the  new  patients 
have  been  4,704,  and  the  whole  number  of  patients  11,355,  as  against 
about  8,000  last  year.  This  has  made  a  daily  average  of  forty-six. 
No  startling  cases  of  conversion  have  occurred,  but  we  are  glad  to  see 
an  increasing  inner  circle  of  deeply  interested  women,  who  say  that  they 
accept  Christ  as  their  Saviour. 

A  Bible  woman  was  obliged  because  of  her  health  to  give  up  most  of 
her  zenanas.  The  women  from  these  houses  followed  her  to  the  dis- 
pensary to  hear  the  Word  of  truth  there.  One  day  when  the  teaching 
had  been  about  a  recent  earthquake  as  a  possible  voice  of  God,  a 
Mohammedan  woman  said:  "What  does  it  matter?  Living  or  dying 
we  belong  to  Jesus."  Another  time,  after  the  Bible  teacher  had 
spoken  of  Christ  as  the  one  Saviour,  a  woman  spoke  up  and  said: 
"Friends,  this  is  all  true  that  she  has  been  telling  you.  I  am  a  Moham- 
medan, but  there  is  no  hope  in  Mohammedanism.  Only  Jesus  Christ 
can  save.  Believe  in  Him,"  and  with  these  impressive  words,she  went 
suddenly  away- 

AMBALA  STATION. 

The  portion  of  the  Ambala  District  occupied  by  this  Station 
is  about  forty  miles  in  length  and  thirty-three  miles  broad, 
comprising  1,346  square  miles.  The  entire  civil  district  covers 
2,019  square  miles.  The  population  of  the  Ambala  District, 
occupied  by  the  Punjab  Mission,  is  587,067,  of  which  530,000 
inhabit  the  villages.  The  Cantonment  population  is  about 
23,000. 

If  the  population  just  enumerated  be  divided  on  the  basis 


193  PUNJAB— AMBAL  A. 

of   religion,   we   shall   have  the   following:  Hindus,    365,800; 
Sikhs,  42,009;  Moslems,  175,080;  Christians,  4,178. 

EDUCATIONAL  WORK.— City  High  School.— The  re- 
ligious influences  of  this  school  include  the  following  items; 
an  opening  service  daily  of  Bible  reading  and  prayer  limited 
to  fifteen  minutes ;  Bible  instruction  daily  in  the  lower  classes 
for  forty-five  minutes,  except  Saturday,  when  it  is  thirty 
minutes;  and  in  the  upper  classes  a  Bible  lesson  every  other 
day.  On  Saturdays  the  Middle  and  High  Departments  are 
assembled  for  the  Sunday-school  lesson,  at  which  time  a 
Christian  teacher  addresses  the  classes  assembled. 

This  school  closed  the  year  with  a  total  enrollment  of  530 
pupils,  of  whom  398  attended  the  main  school  and  132  the 
three  branches. 

The  Cantonment  School  for  A' on-Christian  Boys. — Ranks 
as  a  middle  school,  of  which  Dr.  Thackwell  is  superintendent. 
The  enrollment  is  now  217. 

The  girls'  schools  in  Ambala  City  are  in  the  hands  of  Miss 
Pratt. 

EVANGELISTIC  WORK.— There  are  fifty-eight  villages 
in  which  there  are  resident  Christians  besides  the  workers. 

The  Rev.  Asanand  Rai,  with  a  band  of  four  workers,  has 
visited  125  villages,  some  of  them  several  times  during  the 
year.  Twenty-nine  persons  were  added  to  the  church  by 
baptism. 

The  Ambala  Cantonment  report  contains  the  following 
notice  of  the  death  of  the  late  Mrs.  Calderwood : 

It  is  with  deep  regret  we  have  to  record  the  death  of  our  valued 
and  highly  esteemed  co-worker,  Mrs.  Calderwood,  who,  after  a  faithful 
service  of  upwards  of  forty-seven  years,  passed  into  her  heavenly  rest 
on  the  29th  of  June  last.  Those  who  were  most  intimately  associated 
with  her,  her  teachers  and  her  schools  and  zenanas,  as  also  her  fellow 
missionaries,  greatly  miss  her.  She  filled  a  large  place  in  the  Mission 
work  in  Ambala,  and  it  will  not  be  easy  for  any  other  to  fill  it  just  as 
she  did.  A  willing,  consecrated  worker  can  no  doubt  be  found,  but  it 
is  not  every  one  who  can  endure  the  exposure  to  the  terrible  heat  of  the 
summer  months,  in  going  back  and  forth  to  her  work  as  she  did,  and 
make  light  of  it,  notwithstanding  the  advice  of  friends  who  tried  to 
persuade  her  to  go  to  the  hills  during  the  hottest  summer  months. 
She  was  so  attached  to  her  work  that  she  never  seemed  to  be  happy 
away  from  it. 

It  will  be  well  to  preserve  Mrs.  Calderwood's  views  as  to 
the  importance  of  the  work  done  by  the  zenana  visitor. 

What  good  can  you  do  by  visiting  in  houses  of  fanatical  Mohamme- 
dans and  bigoted  Hindus?  There  are  thousands  of  girls  and  women, 
from  ten  years  and  upward,  who  can  only  be  reached  by  zenana  visiting. 
When  one  remembers  that  in  India,  perhaps  more  than  in  most  coun- 
tries, "She  who  rocks  the  cradle  rules  the  world,"  the  great  importance 


PUNJAT3— DEHRA.  191 

of  reaching  these  girls  and  women  will  be  readily  understood,  especially 
at  such  a  time  as  the  present,  when  there  is  a  general  feeling  of  unrest 
among  the  masses  of  this  great  Empire  Teaching  in  zenanas  is  a 
great  boon  to  the  women  of  India,  and  gives  us  an  opportunity  of 
instilling  our  ideas  of  the  duties  of  wives  and  mothers  into  minds  that 
otherwise  could  not  be  reached  by  us,  or  by  anyone  else. 

MEDICAL  WORK.— The  Philadelphia  Hospital  for  Women. 
— The  dispensary  is  open  four  or  five  hours  every  day.  The 
average  daily  attendance,  as  noted  in  the  Government  Report, 
is  sixty-four  to  seventy-four  patients,  making  a  total  attend- 
ance of  12,944.     The  visits  for  the  year  were  about  23,000. 

The  hospital  has  thirty  beds,  but  the  average  number  of 
in-door  patients  is  eighteen. 

More  than  half  of  the  patients  in  the  hospital  and  at  the  dis- 
pensary come  from  the  villages  lying  out  in  a  radius  of  forty 
miles. 

A  few  persons  have  been  converted  in  this  hospital,  but  they 
have  usually  been  baptized  elsewhere.  As  a  result  of  the  work 
in  this  hospital,  the  doors  are  open  everywhere. 

Leper  Asylum. — The  number  of  inmates  at  the  end  of  the 
year  is  thirty,  while  once  during  the  year  it  rose  to  thirty- 
three.  It  has  been  our  privilege  during  the  year  to  baptize 
twelve  of  the  inmates  of  the  men's  asylum.  In  the  women's 
asylum  all  are  Christians. 

DEHRA  STATION. 

The  town  of  Dehra  has  a  population  of  24,000,  which  it 
owes  to  the  presence  of  a  military  cantonment  occupied  by 
Gurkha  soldiery.  Here,  too,  are  the  civil  courts  and  offices  of 
the  Forest  Department.  It  is  the  source  of  supply  for  the 
neighboring  Hill  Stations  of  Mussoorie  and  Landour.  The 
district  has  a  population  of  178,195. 

Of  the  total  of  population  178,695  in  the  Dehra  District, 
148,275  are  Hindus,  24,661  are  Mohammedans,  755  are  Sikhs, 
3,743  Christians,  and  others  1,761. 

EDUCATIONAL  WORK.— Christian  Girls'  School— This 
school  has  on  its  roll  134  pupils,  of  whom  129  are  boarders. 
Among  these  are  a  few  European  and  Eurasian  girls.  The 
school  prepares  its  pupils  not  only  for  entrance  to  the  univer- 
sity, but  a  few  girls  are  prepared  for  the  first  arts  exami- 
nation in  college.  During  Miss  Donaldson's  absence  on  fur- 
lough, Miss  Woodside  acted  as  principal.  In  reporting  the 
work  of  the  school,  Miss  Morris  concludes: 

Are  these  girls  better  equipped  for  their  work  as  Christian  women  ? 
Have  they  truer  conceptions  of  right  and  wrong,  larger  faith,  higher 
ideals  of  duty,  more  fellowship  with  God?  We  believe  that  they  have, 
and  our  hearts  fill  with  gratitude  as  we  think  of  one  and  another  who

has  grown  in  grace  and  in  knowledge,  of  some  who  have  passed  from 
death  to  hfe,  and  of  whole  classes  whose  earnest  response  to  spiritual 
things  is  a  marked  contrast  to  the  indifference  of  the  early  part  of  the 
year. 

Boys'  High  School. — 

The  scholars  in  this  school  represent  the  be^t  classes  of  Indian 
society.  These  boys  are  kept  under  Christian  influences.  They  are 
taught  the  main  truths  of  the  Bible.  Their  morals  are  moulded  on 
Christian  principles.  When  English  officials  want  young  men  for 
almost  any  place  in  the  Government  service,  they  prefer  to  take 
Mission  School  boys.  These  schools  prepare  them  to  appreciate  the 
Christian  religion.  Some  of  these  boys  profess  themselves  believers, 
though  secret  believers.  A  few  have  been  able  to  openly  confess  their 
faith  and  have  become  prominent  in  the  Church. 

The  number  on  the  roll  of  this  school  has  risen  this  year  from  250 
to  315. 

Mrs.  Emily  Alexander  and  Mrs.  Lilla  Sircar  visit  together  in  thirty- 
nine  houses,  where  they  have  thirty-eight  pupils,  and  in  the  mohallas. 
These  hearers  enjoy  listening  to  the  Gospel  story  and  join  in  singing 
bhajans. 

HOSHYARPUR  STATION. 

The  Hoshyarpur  Station  was  occupied  in  the  year  1867. 
The  suggestion  to  estabHsh  a  Mission  there  was  made  by  the 
late  H.  E.  Perkins,  Esq.,  then  Deputy  Commissioner  at  Hoshy- 
arpur, who  on  retiring  from  office,  many  years  later,  became 
a  missionary  of  the  Church  Missionary  Societ5^ 

The  district  of  Hoshyarpur  is  ninety-four  miles  long,  with 
an  average  breadth  of  about  twenty-five  miles,  containing  an 
area  of  2,232  square  miles.  There  are  in  this  district  seven- 
teen towns  and  2,117  villages,  containing  a  population  in  1901 
of  989,782.  Divided  as  to  religion,  on  the  basis  of  the  Census 
of  1901,  the  population  would  thus  be  described:  Hindus, 
603,740;  Sikhs,  71,126;  Jains,  1,137;  Moslems,  312,958;  Chris- 
tians, 785.  The  number  of  the  Indian  Christians  is  now 
2,816.  There  are  in  this  district  19,075  faqirs  or  mendicants, 
of  which  3,407  are  Hindus,  15,075  i\Ioslems  and  593  Sikhs. 

Girls'  Orphanage. — There  is  accommodation  for  seventy 
inmates.  Everything  is  plain  and  neat  and  clean.  The  object 
is  to  train  the  girls  to  habits  that  will  fit  them  for  the  domestic 
life  they  will  have  to  live  as  the  wives  of  village  workers  and 
teachers.  The  school  grades  at  present  as  an  upper  primary 
school.  Indeed  it  is  difficult  to  keep  the  girls  beyond  this 
stage,  nor  does  it  seem  to  be  desirable  to  do  so,  owing  to  the 
demand  for  marriageable  girls,  while  experience  shows  the 
desirability  of  marrying  the  average  orphan  girl  at  the  age 
of  sixteen  or  seventeen. 

The  number  of  girls  on  the  roll  was  fifty-three,  of  whom 
twenty-six  were   orphans,   eleven   half-orphans,   and  sixteen

girls  with  both  parents  aUve,  but  too  poor  to  send  them  to 
more  expensive  schools. 

EVANGELISTIC  WORK.— Dr.  Chatterjee  has  divided 
the  villages  of  his  district  into  two  classes:  The  villages 
which  have  a  Christian  community  and  those  which  are 
entirely  non-Christian.  In  the  whole  district  there  are  nine 
central  stations,  in  each  of  which  there  is  an  evangelist  or 
catechist,  who  has  charge  of  a  circle,  and  who  is  responsible 
for  the  evangelization  of  the  villages  within  that  circle  and  for 
the  instruction  of  the  inquirers  and  baptized  members  of  the 
church  within  these  bounds.  The  missionary  makes  periodical 
visits,  and  inspects  the  work  of  his  evangelists  and  catechists, 
and  examines  those  who  have  been  taught  by  them. 

The  total  Christian  community  in  the  Hoshyarpur  District 
numbers  2,816.  For  these,  four  separate  church  organizations 
have  been  constituted  by  the  Lahore  Presbytery.  Each 
church  has  its  Board  of  Elders,  and  is  ministered  to  by  a 
Stated  Supply.  Services  on  Sundays,  Sunday-schools,  and 
prayer  meetings  are  held  in  these  places  by  five  ordained  and 
twelve  unordained  teachers  and  preachers.  There  are  forty 
Sunday-schools,  with  a  membership  of  764.  There  were  only 
four  day-schools,  with  fifty-six  boys  on  the  roll.  The  contri- 
butions amounted  last  year  to  Rs.  261. 

iVlEDICAL  WORK.— The  Denny  Hospital.— Dr.  Dora  Chat- 
terjee reports: 

There  have  been  fifteen  maternity  cases,  all  of  whom  came  of  their 
own  accord,  while  formerly  one  had  to  go  to  their  homes  and,  after 
much  persuasion  and  loss  of  valuable  time,  perhaps  bring  them  to  the 
hospital.  Most  of  the  respectable  people  now  have  no  objection  to 
coming  and  staying  in  the  hospital  when  necessary,  and  sometimes 
the  younger  Purdah  ladies  would  like  to  come  just  for  a  change  of  air 
and  scene.  Out  of  a  total  of  192  in-patients,  up  to  October  i,  there 
were  109  Hindus,  49  Mohammedans,  and  34  Christians. 

The  dispensary  is  kept  open  four  hours  a  day.  In  these  four  hours 
an  average  of  175  have  been  treated  daily.  The  number  of  new  cases 
was  11,310. 

FEROZEPUR  STATION. 

The  area  of  the  Ferozepur  District  is  4,302  square  miles, 
comprising  five  Tehsils,  in  which  are  eight  towns  and  1,503 
villages,  with  a  total  population  of  956,657.  On  the  basis 
of  religion  this  population  stands  thus:  Mohammedans, 
447,615;  Hindus,  279,094;  Sikhs,  2^8,358;  Jains,  1,090; 
Indian  Christians,  500. 

EDUCATIONAL  WORK.— (7*^5' Sc:/too/.— This  school  had 
to  be  closed  for  some  months  owing  to  the  inability  of  the

194  PUNJAB— FEROZEPUR. 

Mission  to  secure  a  suitable  Christian  teacher.     It  was  not 
until  March  that  the  school  was  reopened. 

Miss  Clark  tells  why  it  is  so  difficult  to  get  Christian  teachers. 

The  Hindus  and  Sikhs  have  discovered  how  much  more  desirable 
Christian  teachers  are  than  those  who  have  not  had  Christian  training. 
Here  in  Ferozepur,  the  head  mistress  of  both  the  Arya  and  Sikh  schools 
are  Christians.  In  the  house  of  a  well-to-do  Hindu  pleader,  another 
young  Christian  woman  has  been  acting  as  governess  for  two  mother- 
less children.  If  we  could  offer  equally  large  salaries  we  might  have 
less  difficulty  in  obtaining  teachers.  However,  I  have  taken  care  to 
inquire  and  find  that  longer  hours  of  work  are  required  in  these  non- 
Christian  schools  than  are  usually  required  from  our  city  workers. 

EVANGELISTIC  WORK.— In  the  Ferozepur  Station 
district  there  are  1,295  villages.  The  duty  of  carrying  the 
Gospel  to  this  multitude  must  of  necessity  involve  great  labor. 
A  missionary  could  not  profitably  visit  more  than  one  village 
a  day.  At  that  rate  the  missionary  would  have  to  spend  four 
years  to  pay  a  single  visit  to  each  one  of  these  villages.  But 
that  would  mean  that  he  should  travel  every  week-day  in  the 
year,  which  no  European  could  do. 

The  work  now  undertaken  centres  around  four  towns, 
which  Mre  central  in  the  Tehsils  to  which  they  belong.  There 
are  in  the  district  twenty-one  villages  and  towns  in  which 
there  are  Christian  families.  The  village  Christian  population 
is  136,  including  the  workers  and  their  families. 

The  following  is  an  extract  from  Dr.  Newton's  report: 

There  is  a  settlement  of  Chumars  at  Jalalabad,  a  town  of  some 
importance  about  twenty  miles  from  Fazilka.  The  two  communities 
claim  each  other  as  Biradari.  There  is  kinship  between  the  families. 
They  of  Jalalabad  are  well  off.  They  make  leather  and  much  money. 
Now  when  certain  baptisms  had  taken  place  at  Fazilka  the  fact  was 
soon  noised  abroad.  The  men  of  Jalalabad  heard  that  certain  of  their 
Biradari  had  become  Kiranis  (a  contemptuous  term  for  Christians). 
The  former  were  summoned  to  Jalalabad;  a  large  gathering  was 
assembled,  a  Panchayat  (a  sort  of  committee)  was  appointed  to  ex- 
amine these  Kiranis,  and  if  they  should  not  abjure  their  errors, -to 
pronounce  sentence  upon  them.  Now  when  I  was  informed  of  this, 
though  it  was  no  more  than  was  to  be  expected,  I  was  much  disturbed 
in  my  mind.  It  was  necessary  that  some  of  us  should  be  present  to 
stand  by  these  young  Christians,  now  to  be  put  on  their  trial.  I 
had  an  engagement  on  that  day,  which  made  it  impossible  to  be  pres- 
ent. Three  others,  however,  went  and  witnessed  the  proceedings. 
I  was  surprised  when  I  learned  afterwards  that  the  expected  opposition 
and  the  condemnation  of  the  apostates  to  Christianity  did  not  take 
place.  Instead  the  assembly  gave  our  men  leave  to  speak,  and  paid 
quiet  attention.     The  whole  controversy  ended  in  peace 

Miss  Clark  gives  the  following  interesting  incidents  in  her 
experience  as  a  zenana  visitor: 

Of  the  thirteen  houses  in  which  I  have  taught  for  a  longer  or  shorter 
period,  all  but  three  are  Mohammedan.     In  one  house  there  are  three

women  who  listen  to  the  reading  and  teaching  of  the  Bible  with  marked 
interest.  Only  one  of  them  reads.  The  others  hardly  wait  for  the 
lesson  to  end  before  saying,  "Now  read  to  us  from  your  book."  The 
account  of  the  sufferings  and  death  of  our  Lord  greatly  moved  them, 
and  the  old  mother  would  say  again  and  again  with  tears  in  her  eyes, 
"This  indeed  is  something  worth  listening  to.  This  is  the  truth." 
She  has  spent  many  years  teaching  the  Koran. 

MEDICAL  WORK.— City  Dispensary.— Dr.  Newton  re- 
ports: 

The  number  of  new  patients  was  6,963;  visits  10,676,  many  of 
the  patients  coming  repeatedly  for  renewal  of  their  prescriptions; 
surgical  cases  435.  Most  of  these  were  what  would  be  called  minor 
operations.     The  nu:nber  of  indoor  patients  was  forty-one. 

Last  Summer  I  had  a  patient  who  had  come  from  some  distance. 
I  brought  him  to  my  house,  where,  as  the  weather  was  warm,  he  pre- 
ferred to  lie  on  a  charpoy  on  the  veranda  rather  than  inside.  Some 
friends  of  his  in  the  city  used  to  bring  him  his  food.  This  man  was 
the  mullah  of  a  mosque,  one  with  whom  I  had  had  several  years' 
acquaintance.  I  was  glad  to  have  this  opporttmity  of  entertaining 
him  at  my  own  house,  for  it  involved  but  little  trouble  and  gave 
opportunity  for  intercourse  and  conversation.  He  read  the  Bible 
and  other  books  which  I  gave  him. 

In  a  week  he  was  well  enough  to  return  home.  It  was  only  a  few 
days  after  he  had  left  when  there  came  another  patient  to  the  dis- 
pensary, who  also  had  come  from  a  distance  and  would  fain  stay  for 
treatment.  This  man  was  not  like  my  friend  the  mullah,  but  poor, 
illiterate  and  friendless.  He  had  fever  and  an  enlarged  spleen — this 
latter  a  very  common  condition  indeed  What  could  I  do  with  him 
there  but  take  him  also  to  my  house  ?  I  was  the  m«re  encouraged  to 
do  this  as  the  previous  case  had  made  a  satisfactory  recovery  in  so 
shortatirfi'e  But  this  proved  to  be  a  very  serious  case.  He  gradually 
grew  worse  instead  of  better  I  was  nurse  as  well  as  doctor.  Daily 
suitable  food  had  to  be  thought  of  and  provided,  as  well  as  medicine. 
For  two  hot  months,  June  and  July,  I  tended  him,  sleeping  beside  him 
at  night  out  in  the  open  air  in  front  of  the  house.  We  read  to  him 
and  prayed  with  him. 

In  June  I  had  occasion  to  visit  Fazilka,  which  is  one  of  our  sub- 
stations, and  took  my  patient  with  me.  I^could  not  leave  him  behind. 
There,  one  day,  in  the  presence  of  a  number  of  men,  who  had  come  to 
spend  a  part  of  the  day  with  us,  some  of  whom  were  Christians,  but 
the  majority  Hindus,  he  was  baptized.  We  returned  to  Ferozepur, 
where  by  degrees,  in  spite  of  all  we  could  do,  my  poor  patient  succumbed 
about  the  end  of  Jtily.  I  had  become  much  attached  to  him.  It 
was  tmfeigned  sorrow  I  felt  when  he  died.  It  is  strange  how  the  very 
act  of  tending  and  serving  a  man  draws  out  our  sympathy  and  affec- 
tion toward  him. 

The  Woman's  Hospital  has  been  in  charge  of  Dr.  Maud  Allen 
and,  after  she  went  on  furlough,  Dr.  Marston. 

The  number  of  in-patients  for  the  year  was 233 

The  number  of  out-patients  (new) 6,291 

The  total  nimiber  of  visits  for  the  year  was 8.335 

We  have  had  encouragement  from  some  of  our  in-patients.  They 
listen  very  attentively  to  the  Gospel  taught  or  sung  to  them.  A  very 
attractive  and  lovable  woman  has  been  an  in-patient  several  times 


196  PUNJAB— KHANNA. 

during  the  year.  She  is  from  another  city,  and  had  been  taught  by 
the  missionaries  there.  She  has  a  heavy  burden  to  bear — widowhood, 
poverty,  an  imbecile  son  (her  only  child),  and  her  own  poor  health. 
She  takes  part  in  the  daily  work,  as  regularly  as  though  she  were  a 
paid  worker.  She  is  a  very  sensible,  intelligent  woman.  She  is  so 
interested  in  all  that  we  do,  that  I  can  hardly  reaUze  she  is  not  a  Chris- 
tian.    She  seems  to  be  one  in  all  but  in  name. 

KASUR  STATION. 

Dr.  C.  W.  Forman,  on  his  return  from  furlough,  took  charge 
of  the  Kasur  District. 

Fifty -nine  persons  were  baptized  in  Waltoha  itself  and  forty- 
nine  in  Ghariyala,  a  village  five  miles  distant,  where  the 
Christians  now  number  about  loo. 

These  baptisms  took  place  under  the  following  circumstances. 
We  arranged  to  have  a  business  meeting  of  all  the  workers  of  the 
district  at  Waltoha,  in  order  that  we  might  settle  on  suitable  places  for 
opening  village  schools,  and  also  discuss  other  questions  connected 
with  the  work.  Our  preachers  came  in  from  Puttee,  Khem  Karan, 
Ourara,  Lvdiani,  etc.,  and  each  was  accompanied  by  some  delegates 
from  the  Christian  communities  in  these  places.  What  began  as  a 
business  meeting  soon  developed  into  a  revival  meeting.  One  of  our 
preachers,  Jiwan  Khan  of  Khem  Karan,  who  had  recently  returned 
from  the  conference  at  Sialkot,  was  the  chief  instrument  used  by  the 
Spirit  of  God  for  this  purpose.  We  were  fortiinate  in  having  some 
good  musicians  in  the  party,  and  singing  interspersed  with  remarks 
was  kept  up  till  one  and  two  in  the  morning.  Our  only  regret  was  that 
none  of  the  ladies  who  had  been  so  faithful  in  sowing  the  seed  were 
present  at  the  time  of  ingathering. 

A  Hindu  Sadhu,  who  appeared  on  the  scene  unexpectedly,  continued 
to  attend  our  meetings,  and  finally  after  a  few  weeks'  instruction 
was  baptized  in  our  church  here  last  Simday.  He  is  a  very  intelligent 
yotmg  man,  and  bids  fair  to  make  a  usefvil  member  of  our  community. 

Other  baptisms  at  Luliani,  Khem  Karan,  Kalanjar,  etc.,  makes 
the  total  for  the  year  about  350. 

KHANNA  STATION. 

The^Training  School  for  Village  Boys  at  Khanna  is  tmder  the 
care  of  Rev.  E.  P.  Newton  and  Mrs.  Newton.  Mr.  Newton 
reports  as  follows: 

i^In  the  Boarding  School  there  are  twenty  boys,  of  whom  ten  come 
from  JuUundur  and  one  from  Ambala.  The  remainder  belong  to  our 
own  district.  Some  of  these  are  now  able  to  read  well  both  Ptmjabi 
and  Urdu.  Indeed  five  may  be  said  to  have  graduated  and  taken  their 
degree  in  Punjabi,  and  have  now,  in  addition  to  the  Persian  character, 
of  which  also  they  have  a  good  knowledge,  begun  reading  Roman 
Urdu.  The  test  of  proficiency  is  to  require  a  boy  to  read  his  book 
upside  down.  If  he  is  able  to  do  this  with  stifficient  fluency  he  is  held 
to  be  ripe  for  graduation  in  that  subject  and  is  allowed  to  take  up  the 
next. 

During  the  year  a  fair  amount  of  cotton  and  woollen  cloth  has  been 
woven,  but  we  are  very  much  hampered  by  the  want  of  a  smtable 
workshop.     The  three  looms  are  now  placed  in  two  small  cottages. 


PUNJAB— PRESBYTERI A L  HOME  MISSIONS.  197 

The  Christian  commtmity  in  this  district  numbers  153,  of  whom 
forty-one  are  communicants.  Nine  adults  and  four  children  were 
baptized  during  the  year.  With  many  families  we  can  keep  in  touch 
only  by  visiting  them  in  their  homes,  as  they  are  too  scattered  to  be 
gathered  into  any  one  place  for  regular  religious  services. 

LANDOUR  STATION. 

EDUCATIONAL  WORK.  — Woodstock  College.— Within 
sight  of  the  Dehra  Girls'  School  and  about  fifteen  miles  dis- 
tant, but  some  4,000  feet  higher  up  on  the  mountain  side,  is 
the  Woodstock  College  and  High  School  for  European  girls. 
It  is  located  at  Landour. 

This  institution  was  begun  in  1854  as  a  ladies'  seminary, 
tmder  the  auspices  of  the  London  Society  for  the  Promotion 
of  Female  Education  in  the  East,  especially  for  Protestant 
girls. 

The  average  number  of  students  in  attendance  in  1908  was 
147.  The  highest  number  attending  at  any  one  time  was  156. 
The  highest  number  of  boarding  students  was  115. 

The  spiritual  condition  of  the  school  has,  on  the  whole,  been 
satisfactory. 

PHILLOUR  AND  RUPAR  DISTRICTS. 

Some  years  previous  to  the  conquest  of  the  Punjab  by  the 
English,  the  missionaries  ventured  to  send  their  senior  cate- 
chist,  the  late  Rev.  Golak  Nath,  to  preach  in  Phillour.  Two 
hours  after  his  arrival  he  was  seized  by  the  Sikh  soldiery, 
quartered  in  the  fort,  and  thrown  on  his  back  on  the  ground. 
A  millstone  was  placed  on  his  chest  to  hold  him  down,  until 
it  should  be  decided  what  should  be  done  with  him.  He  was 
sent  back  to  the  east  bank  of  the  Sutlej  River,  and  warned 
never  to  return.  It  is  an  interesting  fact  that  the  son  of  this 
man,  the  Rev.  Henry  Golak  Nath,  and  his  wife' are  the  mis- 
sionaries at  Phillour,  living  within  a  short  distance  of  the  spot 
where  his  father  narrowly  escaped  martyrdom.  There  are 
750  villages  in  this  field. 

There  are  386  villages  in  the  Rupar  field.  In  125  of  these 
there  are  Christians  resident.  The  district  has  been  divided 
into  fifteen  circles  or  divisions  in  which  workers  are  located, 
and  who  visit  the  villages  within  their  respective  circles. 

PRESBYTERIAL  HOME  MISSIONS. 

The  Lodiana  and  Lahore  Presbyteries  have  maintained  their 
Presbyterial  missionary  work,  the  former  under  Mr.  Circar, 
and  the  latter  under  Mr.  Talib-ud-din.  The  two  home  mis- 
sion fields  are  located  in  the  Ambala  and  Lahore  Districts,

J.    Morrow,    Rev.    and    Mrs.    J.    S.    Woodside,    Rev.    and    Mrs.    E.    A. 
Enders,  Rev.  and  Mrs.  C.  A.   R.  Janvier. 

The  Mission  received  no  reinforcements  during  the  year  and 
lost  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Woodside,  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Kellogg-  and  Miss 
Cuthbertson.  Mr.  Woodside  was  the  oldest  member  of  the 
Mission — indeed,  the  oldest  missionary  of  the  Board  in  India, 
having  been  appointed  in  1848.  He  and  Mrs.  Woodside  re- 
turned to  the  United  States,  expecting  to  spend  their  last  years 
in  the  home  land.  Mrs.  Woodside  died  in  Wooster,  Ohio, 
February,  1909.  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Kellogg  were  obliged  to 
return  by  the  failure  in  health  of  Mr.  Kellogg's  mother  and 
brother.  Miss  Cuthbertson  also  had  to  leave  on  account  of 
.long  continued  illness. 

The  work  of  the  Mission  has  advanced  steadily  in  spite  of 
the  smaller  force. 

ALLAHABAD  STATION. 

CHURCHES. — There  were  added  to  the  Katra  and  Jumna 
Churches  during  the  year  twenty-four  members.  The  Jumna 
Church  has  at  last  called  a  pastor,  supported  with  the  aid  of 
the  Presbytery.  In  the  Sunday-schools  of  the  two  churches 
there  are  635  pupils. 

EVANGELISTIC— Leaving  out  the  city  of  Allahabad,  with 
its  178,000  people,  and  the  Home  Mission  field  of  the  Pres- 
bytery which  is  in  the  Allahabad  District,  we  as  a  Station  and 
Mission  are  responsible  for  giving  the  Gospel  to  the  people 
living  in  the  Tehsils  of  Meja,  Bara  and  Karchhana — the  three 
Tehsils  containing  a  population  of  349,844. 

There  are  two  centres  for  reaching  the  villages,  one  at 
Sirsa,  thirty  miles  south  of  Allahabad,  where  seventeen  con- 
verts from  Hinduism  have  been  gathered  during  the  past  year 
and  the  second  at  Shivrangapur.  There  are  350,000  people 
in  the  district  south  of  the  Jumna  to  be  evangelized  by  the 
Station. 

Our  centre  of  evangelistic  work  in  Allahabad  is  the  City  Church, 
where  five  evenings  of  the  week  the  doors  are  thrown  open  from  4  or 
5  o'clock  until  8,  and  during  this  time  the  Gospel  is  preached  and  con- 
versations held  with  those  who  come  in. 

EDUCATIONAL.— .-^//o/m&a J  Christian  College— The  col- 
lege has  grown  steadily  in  influence  and  equipment.  A  gen- 
tleman from  Knoxville,  Tenn.,  gave  $3,000  for  the  building 
of  a  hostel  for  non-Christian  students,  and  the  Bethany  Church

department  has  met  with  more  acceptance,  x^n  additional 
teacher  has  been  added  to  it,  and  Mr.  Avcy  writes : 

The  attitude  in  general  of  the  public  toward  the  engineering  depart- 
ment is  gradually  but  surely  changing.  Students  are  coming  to  the 
opinion,  and  are  beginning  to  act  upon  it,  that  true  Svvadcsi  can  best 
be  promoted  by  making  themselves  able  to  develop  the  internal  re- 
sources of  the  country.  Students  with  this  idea  in  mind  are  coming  to 
us.  When  we  say  this  we  do  not  mean  to  say  men  who  enter  the  engi- 
neering department  are  seditionists — far  from  it,  but  we  do  mean  that 
men  arc  joining  us  who  look  ahead  to  doing  something  toward  the 
industrial  development  of  India  and  making  for  themselves  a  living  by 
(ither  methods  than  by  the  traditional  methods  of  their  caste  or  an- 
cestry. The  present  year  finds  us  with  five  regular  students  against  one 
in  the  first  two  years. 

Mr.  Edwards  was  at  home  during  the  year,  but  Mr.  S.  H. 
Werden,  B.A.,  of  Toronto,  Canada,  joined  the  staff.  The  at- 
tendance in  the  college  department  has  been  165  and  might  have 
been  200  if  there  had  been  hostel  accommodation.  Of  the  work 
in  the  hostels  Mr.  Thompson  writes : 

Of  the  eighty  students  in  the  hostels,  ten  are  Christians,  twenty-three 
Mohammedans,  and  the  remaining  forty-seven  Hindus.  There  are  more 
of  the  latter  Kayasthas  than  of  any  other  caste 

The  students  of  all  different  castes  and  creeds  live  together  and  enjoy 
each  other's  companionship.  A  few  cases  of  innocent  "hazing"  have 
been  discovered.  The  Mohammedans  have  formed  a  Muslim  .Associa- 
tion, at  the  last  social  of  which  Christians  and  Hindus  were  also  pres- 
ent and  partook  of  the  refreshments.  The  walls  of  caste  were  seen 
crumbling,  and  out  of  the  ruins  a  new  college  spirit  was  born  in  the 
visions  of  many  present. 

Jumna  Boys'  High  School. — 

In  attendance  the  school  has  again  surpassed  the  previous  record. 
The  number  enrolled  in  September  was  541.  As  the  number  of  pupils 
allowed  in  each  class  may  not  e.xceed  thirty-three,  seven  out  of  twelve 
classes  are  divided  into  two  sections 

The  growth  of  this  school  illustrates  very  clearly  that  it  is  almost 
impossible  to  plan  too  largely  in  educational  matters  in  India  at  the 
present   time.     Four  years  ago,   it   seemed   to   be   a   rather   enterprising 

thing  to  do  to  plan  for  400  students.    We  are  overflowed The 

Scriptures  are  regularly  taught  to  every  class  in  the  school No 

one  single  agency  used  by  missionaries  is  doing  more  to  create  the  new 
India  in  which  Christ  shall  be  a  dominant  factor  than  our  missionary  ed- 
ucational system  of  which  the  high  school  is  an  important  part. 

Fifty  of  the  boys  are  resident  in  the  Christian  Boys'  Boarding 
House,  of  which  Mr.  Higginbottom,  who  is  in  charge,  reports: 

Progress  has  been  made  in  self-help.  No  boy  supported  by  a  mis- 
sionary or  getting  any  scholarship  can  remain  without  doing  some 
work.  One  boy  cares  for  the  lamps  and  so  earns  his  way.  From  time 
to  time,  boys  have  worked  in  the  kitchen,  carried  in  eighteen  tons  of 
coal  and  1,000  mounds  of  wheat.  A  garden  is  under  regular  cultiva- 
tion, all  work  being  done  by  the  boys.    Wood  has  been  chopped  and

mail}-   other   services   demanded  of  tlie  boys,  all   of   which   it   is   hoped 
will  help  to  deepen  in  them  a  sense  of  responsibility  and  independence. 

Mary  Wananiakcr  Girls'  High  School. — 

'1  his  school  has  had  on  its  roll  this  year  120  Christian  girls.  They 
come  from  Christian  homes  scattered  over  the  provinces  and  even  from 
the  central  provinces,  Bombay  and  Bengal.  The  fees  from  the  parents 
increase  from  year  to  year,  showing  that  the  parents  are  willing  to 
deny  themselves  to  give  their  daughters  an  education,  and  in  not  a 
few  cases  it  means  a  great  deal  of  self-denial  even  in  the  way  of  food 
to  be  able  to  pay  the  fee^  for  their  daughters. 

Katra  Mission  Boys'  School. — 

The  Katra  Mission  School  had  on  its  roll  the  last  year  103  pupils — 
Hindus,  39;  Mohammedans,  57,  and  Christians,  7,  besides  10  boys  in 
the  vernacular  branch.  The  Bible  and  Catechism  were  taught  to  every 
class  by  three  Christian  teachers,  while  the  missionary  in  charge  opens 
the  school  with  an  exposition  of  a  portion  of  Scripture  and  prayer,  the 
service  lasting  nearly  half  an  hour.  The  pupils  ranging  in  ages  from 
eight  to  twenty  could  be  reached  with  the  Gospel  message  in  no  other 
way,  certainly  in  no  such  promising  way  as  in  the  school. 

MEDICAL. — In  the  Sara  Seward  Hcspital  and  Dispensary, 
during-  the  year  ending  October  7,  1908,  there  have  been  8,154 
new  patients  and  24,145  treatments.  The  hospital  has  twenty- 
two  beds  for  in-patients,  of  whom  there  have  been  206  during 
the  year.  These  are  the  statistics  for  the  year,  but  how  little 
they  tell  of  the  relief  of  the  8,000  and  more  women  and  chil- 
dren who  have  visited  the  hospital,  and  how  little  they  tell  of 
the  confidence  won  and  the  message  spoken  to  them  while 
waiting  for  treatment  or  while  inmates  of  the  hospital. 

MISCELLANEOUS.— The  Makhsan-i-Masihi,  published 
on  the  1st  and  15th  of  every  month,  is  for  the  upbuilding  of 
the  Indian  Church.  It  goes  to  many  Christians  living  in  vil- 
lages who  know  little  of  the  work  of  the  Church  in  other  parts 
of  India  and  in  other  lands.  Through  its  pages  they  are  kept 
In  touch  with  the  work  of  the  missionary  societies  in  India  and 
fhroughout  the  world. 

Mr.  Avey  has  looked  after  the  Blind  Asylum,  whose  in- 
mates have  increased  to  sixty-one. 

Of  the  Leper  Asylum  Mr.  Higginbottom  writes : 

The  spirit  of  the  Leper  Asylum  gives  much  cause  for  encourage- 
ment. When  it  was  known  that  famine  and  consequent  high  prices  were 
inevitable,  the  lepers  themselves  willingly  gave  up  one  chattick  per  day 
of  ata. 

The  leper  who  for  the  first  time  in  his  life  heard  of  One  who  loves 
the  leper  proved  himself  a  happy  and  useful  member.  After  getting  a 
Hindu  Bible,  he  read  it  and  used  to  get  a  crowd  around  him  as  he  would 
read  aloud  for  an  hour  or  two  daily,  and  when  he  died  he  died  believ- 
ing that  he  would  soon  awake  in  His  likeness.

In  July  cliolcra  broke  out,  and  out  of  forty-two  cases  eleven  died. 
Measures  were  taken  and  huts  built  outside  so  that  the  disease  was 
-tayed.  The  highest  number  on  the  roll  has  been  210,  and  the  average 
for  the  year  about  175. 

ETA W AH  STATION. 

Mr.  Enders  has  developed  the  district  work  of  the  Station 
most  eiierg'etically,  but  broke  down  completely  in  health  at 
the  end  of  the  year  with  three  attacks  of  typhoid  fever  and  has 
been  ordered  home. 


FATEHGARH  STATION. 

The  work  of  the  Station  has  been  carried  on  this  year  by 
five  missionaries,  two  wives  of  missionaries  and  Dr.  Fuller- 
ton,  six  Eurasian  or  European  helpers,  four  ordained  Indian 
ministers,  four  preachers  and  their  wives,  twenty-three 
preacher  teachers  and  twenty-one  wives,  twenty-tu'o  teachers 
(men),  thirteen  teachers  (women)  and  five  other  helpers. 

Famine  during  the  first  part  and  an  unusual  amount  of 
sickness  during  the  latter  part  of  the  year  have  greatly  added 
to  the  strain  on  all.  More  than  that,  the  work  in  almost 
every  department  is  growing  perceptibly  heavier  each  year. 
This  growth  has  so  added  to  some  of  our  cares  as  to  make  it 
almost  unwelcome,  since  aside  from  the  fact  that  there  has 
been  no  adequate  provision  for  expansion  in  work,  there  has 
been  constantly  with  some  of  us  the  distracting  nightmare  of 
not  being  able  to  figure  out  even  in  our  finances. 

The  work  of  the  Station  is  roughly  catalogued  as  follows : 
English  preaching  and  work  among  railway  people.  The  care 
of  a  district  in  which  there  are  5,536  Christians,  939  communi- 
cants, in  twenty-three  organized  churches  and  six  other  places 
which  are  not  organized  as  yet ;  cibout  fifty  places  of  regular 
services,  fifty-three  Sunday-schools,  forty  Christian  Endeavor 
Societies,  besides  the  Sunday-schools  and  Christian  Endeavor 
Societies  and  Women's  Societies  in  the  central  Station ;  forty- 
four  district  day-schools,  the  Training  School,  the  High  School 
for  Boys,  the  Boarding  School  for  Boys,  the  Girls'  School  and 
Orphanage,  the  Central  City  School  for  Girls,  the  Industrial 
Training  School,  the  Christian  Industrial  Association,  two 
dispensaries — more  accurately,  thVee  dispensaries — a  consider- 
able weight  of  editorial  work,  some  literary  work,  and  last, 
but  not  to  be  despised,  Presbytery,  Mission  and  putside  com- 
mittees too  numerous  to  mention  and  some  of  them  rather 
heavy. 

EVANGELISTIC— The  Hindustani  churches  of  the  cen- 
tral Station  have  not  quite  held  their  own.     During  the  year 


204  NORTH  INDIA— FATEHGARH. 

3/1   have   united  with  the  churches  of  the  district.     Of  this 
district  work  among  the  low  castes  Mr.  Bandy  writes: 

We  report  this  year  but  679  baptisms,  the  smallest  number  in  years. 
This  is  due  to  the  fact  that  we  have  not  had  the  men  nor  the  money 
to  push  into  new  territory.  Our  already  occupied  field  has  been  much 
more  intensively  worked  this  year.  In  spite  of  famine,  our  village 
churches  have  given  Rs.  46  more  this  year  than  last. 

EDUCATIONAL. — The  Training  School  has  had  a  very 
unsatisfactory  term. 

The  Christian  Boys'  Boarding  School. — The  total  enroll- 
ment for  the  year  has  been  175.  The  actual  attendance  has 
ranged  between  140  in  July  and  122  in  September.  The  Sum- 
mer vacation  attendance  was  108.  The  variation  in  attendance 
during  the  school  term  is  accounted  for  first  by  cholera.  Fol- 
lowing this  was  the  fever  epidemic.  Village  boys  principally 
left  us  during  this  time.  A  large  number  of  boys  came  to  us 
from  other  Stations.  The  finances  of  the  school  continue  to 
be  most  distressing.  Good  rains  have  come  and  still  prices 
of  grain  hover  very  near  to  famine  figures.  India  is  becoming 
commercially  linked  up  with  all  the  world  and  it  is  not  at  all 
likely  that  we  will  have  cheap  grain  in  India  till  Europe  and 
America  have  cheap  wheat  again. 

lite  City  Mission  High  School. — -The  enrollment  has  reached 
the  record  figure  this  year  of  442.  Of  this  number  no  are 
Christians.  The  average  attendance  of  the  school,  also  record, 
has  been  346.  In  accordance  with  the  hint  from  Government 
more  or  less  regular  instruction  has  been  given  on  the  subject 
of  temperance. 

The  Industrial  School. — During  the  year  fourteen  have  been 
working  in  the  shoe-making  department,  ten  in  the  carpenter- 
ing, six  in  the  tailoring,  and  four  in  the  blacksmithing,  a  total 
of  thirty-four  boys.  Three  shoemakers  have  gone  out  to  make 
their  own  way.  One  of  our  carpenters,  the  last  we  heard,  was 
making  20  rupees  a  month.  Two  tailors  have  left  us,  but 
they  have  not  steady  work  and  do  not  wholly  depend  on  their 
trade  for  a  living,  and  one  of  the  blacksmiths  ran  away.  The 
rest  of  the  boys  are  still  with  us  and  are  on  their  way  to  be- 
coming from  fair  to  good  workmen.  Shoemaking  is  our  best 
trade ;  there  the  boys  have  made  their  best  progress  and  with 
least  cost  to  the  management. 

The  Christian  Industrial  Association  is  again  solvent.  There 
was  a  time  when  its  shares  were  below  par,  but  during  the 
year  nearly  one-half  its  stock  exchanged  hands  at  100  per  cent. 

Rakha  Girls'  School  and  Orphanage. — Until  July  the  whole 
school  was  drilled  daily  in  breathing  exercises.  This  with 
the  improvement  of  sanitary  conditions  and  an  increase  in  the 
amount  of  food  accounts  for  such  improvement  in  health  as  has 


NORTH  INDIA— JHANSI.  205 

been  seen.  The  girls  were  g-iven  a  football  which  they  kicked 
around  with  considerable  vigor  till  it  was  kicked  to  pieces  and 
a  new  one  cost  more  money  than  the  school  finances  w^ould 
justify,  so  there  was  an  end  to  that  wholesome  sport,  about 
the  only  sport  the  girls  have  really  taken  to. 

The  City  Girls'  School. — Measles  followed  by  smallpox, 
smallpox  by  cholera,  and  cholera  by  fever  and  malaria,  and 
the  last  the  worst  and  still  raging.  The  general  average  daily 
attendance  from  December  to  July  was  seventy-four ;  from  Au- 
gust to  date  it  was  fifty-six,  and  this  with  a  total  enrollment 
of  133- 

MEDICAL  WORK. — Dr.  Anna  Fullerton  has  continued  to 
give  her  invaluable  assistance.  The  Medical  Dispensary  for 
Women  and  the  branch  dispensary  for  Christian  boys  and 
men  cannot  complain  as  do  the  schools  this  year  of  poor  at- 
tendance nor  of  unfavorable  conditions  for  full  column  sta- 
tistics. The  total  number  of  visits  to  the  two  dispensaries  has 
been  11,594;  3,514  have  been  in  the  men's  and  boys'  branch. 
There  have  been  204  operations.  Opportunities  have  been  af- 
forded for  teaching  that  "salvation  and  sanitation  are  twins." 
When  it  is  remembered  that  one  out  of  every  four  children  in 
this  province  dies  before  attaining  one  year  of  age,  the  need 
for  talking  to  mothers  on  the  care  of  children  is  easily  recog- 
nized. Fever  mixtures  and  quinine  are  made  up  daily  by  the 
quarts  and  the  dispensary  fever  powder  has  come  to  be  re- 
garded as  a  cure-all, 

JHANSI  STATION. 

Dr.  Forman  reports : 

Our  district  work,  which  is  chiefl}-  among  the  weavers  of  Mau  and 
Ranipur,  has  been  largely  moulded  during  the  past  year  by  the  exigen- 
cies of  famine  relief.  The  weaver  is  doubly  hit  by  famine.  The  price 
of  food  rises,  and  the  price  of  the  cloth  he  weaves  falls.  During  the 
scarcity  three  years  ago  I  had  helped  some  of  the  weavers  by  provid- 
ing them  with  yarn  at  a  rate  slightly  lower  than  the  market  rate.  A  year 
ago,  when  faced  by  the  famine,  I  proposed  this  plan  to  the  Government, 
and  asked  for  funds  that  I  might  help  a  larger  number.  The  plan  was 
approved  by  the  Famine  Commissioner,  and  the  collector  gave  me 
charge  of  relief  work  for  weavers  in  Mau,  Ranipur  and  the  surround- 
ing villages. 

I  would  visit  a  village,  make  inquiries  on  the  spot  concerning  needy 
weavers,  and  give  to  those  who  were  in  need  an  order  on  our  catechist 
in  Mau  or  Ranipur.  He  would  enter  their  names  on  our  books,  and 
give  them  an  order  on  a  local  dealer  for  two  bundles  of  yarn,  for 
which  the  weaver  would  pay  us,  after  he  had  made  and  sold  his  cloth, 
from  fifteen-sixteenths  to  fourteen-sixteenths  of  the  cost  price.  He 
would  then  get  a  second  order  on  the  dealer.  The  catechist  every 
evening  paid  the  receipts  of  the  day  into  the  hands  of  the  dealer.  Lia- 
bility to  mistakes  was  thus  reduced  to  a  minimum.    Both  Babu  Sannu 


206  NORTH  INDIA— JHANSI. 

Lai  and  Babu  Mul  Chand  Wilson  worked  most  faithfully,  the  former 
especially  giving  himself  in  the  most  whole-hearted,  self-sacrilicing  v/ay 
to  this  work  of  relief.  And  the  Summer's  work  passed  off  very  satis- 
factorily. On  closing  operations  on  September  i,  permission  was  given 
by  the  collector  to  give  the  last  two  bundles  of  yarn  to  each  beneficiary, 
as  a  valedictory  dole,  for  food  prices  were  as  high  as  ever,  and  it 
would  be  most  difficult  for  the  people  to  pay  for  their  last  bundles  and 
also  get  a  start  on  the  old  basis  with  the  dealers.  The  gift  was  greatly 
appreciated  by  the  people. 

The  advantage  of  this  method  consisted,  of  course,  in  the  fact  that 
men  were  kept  at  work  at  their  ov/n  employment,  in  their  own  homes ; 
and  that  instead  of  giving  gratuitous  aid,  it  only  made  it  possible  for 
tlicm  to  earn  tlieir  living  in  the  normal  way. 

We  gave  out  in  all,  to  over  950  heads  of  families,  a  little  over  Rs. 
51,200  worth  of  yarn,  at  a  cost  to  Government  of  Rs.  9,600,  including 
the  cost  of  the  valedictory  doles.  The  total  number  of  persons  helped  was 
3,764;  there  being  1,116  men,  1,257  women,  1,391  children,  living  in 
seventeen  towns  and  villages.  The  average  cost  to  Government,  aside 
from  the  valedictory  doles,  was  a  trifle  under  6  annas  (12  cents)  a 
month  for  each  person. 

How  much  these  poor  low-caste  people  need  friendship  and  help. 
Their  ignorance,  their  poor  and  insufficient  food,  their  insufficient  clotli- 
ing,  their  dirtiness,  their  needless  sicknesses  and  sufferings,  their  petty 
deceits  and  suspicions,  their  constant  strife  among  themselves,  their 
harshness  one  to  another,  their  frequent  drunkenness,  their  gambling — 
all  combine  to  make  their  lives  pitiful.  To  bring  healing  into  their 
diseased  and  suffering  life,  would  indeed  make  one's  own  life  not  to 
have  been  in  vain.  Sometimes  one  is  cast  down  with  the  seeming 
impossibility  of  it ;  at  others,  full  of  hope. 

Whatever  weakness  of  character  and  whatever  social  evils  there  are, 
the  people  have  seen  in  Christianity  a  light  that  is  lightening  them. 
One  night  during  last  summer,  we  were  having  a  meeting,  and  I  asked 
if  tliere  were  any  who  wished  to  be  baptized.  A  serious-faced  little 
boy  of  about  eight  years  of  age  came  forward.  His  father  had  been 
baptized  some  time  before,  and  now  the  boy  came  forward  of  h's  own 
desire.  A  youth  of  sixteen  or  seventeen  was  there,  and  was  u-'ged  to 
also  take  the  step.  After  refusing  and  being  still  urged,  he  explained 
that  if  he  became  a  Christian  he  could  not  return  abusive  language 
for  abusive  language,  or  give  blow  for  blow,  and  he  was  not  ready  to 
undertake  this.  Thus  repeatedly  we  have  seen  that  the  people  recog- 
nize the  higher  moral  demands  of  Christianity. 

Our  work  in  Man  has  been  carried  on  much  the  same  lines  as  in 
Ranipur,  only  with  a  smaller  staff.  Man  is  a  c!ty  of  about  20.000  inhab- 
itants, and  the  weaver  community  is  a  very  large  one. 

So  far  ;is  v/e  can  judge,  the  famine  relief  work  has  opened  to  us  many 
doors  in  ;ind  about  Man  and  Ranipur,  if  we  had  but  the  workers  to 
enter  in.  It  is  distressing  under  such  circumstances,  to  have  difficulty 
in  keeping  up  even  our  present  staff. 

Girls'  School. — The  average  daily  attendance  in  the  school 
has  been  thirty,  and  the  average  number  on  the  rolls  forty- 
.six. 

In  the  sewing  class  they  have  learned  to  stitch,  hem  and 
overcast,  and  many  of  them  to  knit.  There  are  two  Bible 
classes  held  each  day. 

Zenana   Work. — Miss  Williamson  reports  : 

During    the    past    year    I    have    visited    and    taught    in    thirty-seven 


NORTH  INDIA— MAINPURIE.  207 

homes  and  have  fifty-four  pupils.  Together  with  the  reading  and  writ- 
ing that  are  taught,  religious  instruction  is  given  in  each  home,  some  of 
the  women  and  girls  reading  "The  Life  of  Christ,"  others  the  New  Tes- 
tament, while  some  can  receive  only  oral  instruction. 

May  God's  grace  make  us,  in  all  we  do  and  say,  faithful  witnesses 
of  His  love  and  power  to  save,  and  may  many  be  born  into  the  King- 
dom, especially  from  among  these  poor,  oppressed,  helpless  women, 
whose  lives  are  so  pitifully  empty  of  all  that  is  highest  and  best. 

The  church  in  Jhansi  City  is  under  the  care  of  Rev.  Prabhu  Dutt. 
It  has  had  a  year  of  quiet  steady  work. 

The  church  in  Sipri  Bazaar  has  had  but  a  small  attendance  during  the 
year,  and  for  three  months  was  closed.  But  regular  services  are  now 
being  held. 

Babu  Prabhu  Charan  has  kept  up  his  school  for  boys  in  Lai  Kurti 
(Red  Coat)  Bazaar,  one  of  the  two  regimental  bazaars.  There  has  been 
a  good  deal  of  opposition  to  meet,  but  it  is  of  a  kind  that  does  not  last 
many  months,  and  already  the  school  is  regaining  its  members.  One 
can  hardly  blame  a  teacher  much  for  failing  to  keep  hold  of  the  boys 
who  come  to  him  in  a  regimental  bazaar.  It  were  almost  as  easy  to  hold 
wild  asses'  colts  by  moral  suasion.  But  the  school,  with  the  daily 
Bible  lesson  during  the  week,  and  the  Sunday-school  on  Sundays,  is 
doing  good  among  these  boys. 

MAINPURIE  STATION. 

Mr.  Mitchell  spent  six  weeks  in  special  itinerating  among 
the  zemindars  of  the  district,  the  object  of  which  was  to  secure 
their  interest  in  the  high  school  and  to  get  their  help  in  build- 
ing a  hostel  for  the  school.  This  was  a  new  experience.  It 
gave  many  opportunities  for  a  personal  word  on  religion.  The 
cordial  reception  and  financial  help  secured  show  that  the 
people  have  a  warm  feeling  of  gratitude  for  what  the  Mission 
is  doing  in  helping  to  educate  their  sons.  The  work  among 
our  baptized  community  of  nearly  2,000  is  encouraging  in 
some  places  and  discouraging  in  others.  Some  places  where 
the  most  teaching  has  been  done  show  the  least  signs  of  prog- 
ress. These  are  the  larger  towns,  where  the  major  part  of 
the  community  still  engage  in  sweepers'  work. 

The  Station  centres  of  work  have  been  Shikohabad,  Jasrana, 
Bhongaon,  Kuraoli,  Bewar.  There  are  thirty-nine  Sunday- 
schools  with  an  attendance  of  786  in  the  district.  During  the 
year  there  were  ninety-two  baptisms  in  the  Shikohabad  and 
Jasrana  fields ;  twenty-five  in  the  Bewar  field,  and  a  total  of 
143  in  the  district. 

The  Mainpurie  Church  has  had  a  prosperous  year  and  is 
quite  self-supporting.  Twenty-nine  have  been  added  on  con- 
fession of  faith  during  the  year. 

The  work  of  the  Training  School  for  Christian  Teachers  has 
gone  on  for  eleven  months  of  the  year.  We  closed  for  the 
month  of  June,  and  most  of  the  students  went  to  their  homes 
for  all  or  a  part  of  the  vacation.  During  the  year  we  have 
had  an  average  attendance  of  forty  men  and  thirty  women  in 
this  school.    Mr.  Mitchell  writes : 


208  NORTH  INDIA— ETAH. 

The  school  has  been  examined  twice  by  the  Presbyterial  Committee, 
once  in  May  and  once  in  September.  These  examinations  lasted  seven 
days  of  eight  hours  each.  Some  students  were  examined  in  as  many  as 
twenty-four  subjects,  including  twelve  books  of  the  Bible.  There  were 
very  few  failures.  The  most  of  these  same  people  three  to  six  years 
ago  could  not  have  told  one  letter  from  another.  Understand,  they  have 
not  been  in  school  all  this  time,  but  have  worked  for  various  periods 
in  their  villages. 

The  unrest  has  not  yet  seriously  afifected  our  work.  I  believe  now  is 
an  opportunity  for  Christian  educational  work  such  as  has  never 
before  presented  itself  to  this  country.  To  meet  it  we  must  have  more 
Christian  teachers,  from  the  village  teacher  who  goes  out  from  one  of 
our  training  schools  to  graduates  from  our  colleges  and  universities. 

For  half  of  the  year  there  has  been  but  one  missionary  family  here. 
This  has  necessitated  leaving  the  care  of  the  nearly  2,000  baptized  peo- 
ple wholly  to  the  Indian  helpers. 

MORAR  STATION. 

It  has  not  been  possible  to  locate  any  missionar}^  at  Morar, 
the  capital  of  the  State  of  Gwalior.  Dr.  Fornian  has  had  charge 
of  the  Station  and  reports : 

Almost  nothing  has  been  done  by  the  Mission  in  Gwalior  during  the 
past  year.  The  Rev.  Sukh  Pal  is  very  old  and  feeble,  and  for  much  of 
the  time  has  been  unable  to  leave  the  house.  We  have  no  other  worker 
there. 

The  Mi.ssion  urgently  asks  help  to  enable  it  to  occupy  this 
unique  field. 

ETAH  STATION 

There  are  now  thirteen  churches  in  the  Etah  field,  of  which 
four  have  been  organized  this  year  by  a  Committee  of  Pres- 
bytery. The  total  membership  is  469,  of  whom  249,  or  more 
than  half,  have  been  added  by  examination  during  the  year. 

There  are  twenty-six  Sunday-schools  reported  in  connection 
with  these  churches.  There  are  ten  Christian  Endeavor  So- 
cieties. Of  the  thirteen  churches  mentioned,  only  one,  the 
Etah  Church,  has  a  pastor  and  is  self-supporting. 

The  Evangelistic  work  has  been  much  more  extensive  this 
year  than  before.  A  larger  number  have  been  under  Christian 
instruction,  a  larger  number  have  been  baptized,  a  larger  num- 
ber have  been  brought  into  the  communion  of  the  churches 
than  ever  before.  Over  fifty  new  villages  have  been  entered  in 
our  books  and  1,161  have  been  baptized  and  thus  brought  into 
our  Christian  community.  This  fact  does  not,  however,  indi- 
cate that  less  attention  than  usual  has  been  given  to  the  older 
communities,  but  does  indicate  more  time  spent  in  the  district 
by  the  missionaries  than  has  been  possible  in  previous  years 
and  that  the  eflforts  of  an  increasing  force  of  Indian  workers 
i.s  bearing  fruit  to  a  gratifying  degree. 


NORTH  INDIA— ETAH.  20Q 

The  total  community  now  connected  with  our  Etah  work, 
after  a  more  careful  record  than  has  been  made  recently,  is 
4,652. 

The  low-caste  work  does  not  shut  the  doors  of  the  higher 
castes.  During  the  year  among  the  converts  are  a  Thakur,  a 
Sonar,  Dhobis  and  Mohammedans. 

Of  the  Boys'  Boarding  School  Mr.  Lawrence  writes : 

Owing  to  the  lack  of  money,  it  was  necessary  to  allow  the  attendance 
to  dwindle  down,  till  at  the  close  of  last  year  there  was  an  attendance 
of  about  thirty  boarders,  including  the  orphans. 

The  training  classes  were  quite  full  last  Winter  and  many  were  re- 
fused admission  and  of  those  received  some  were  not  able  to  prove 
themselves  able  to  take  the  course  and  were  recommended  to  follow 
other  employment.  Since  the  opening  of  the  school  in  July  the  classes 
are  the  largest  we  have  yet  had.  The  enrollment  reached  forty-five,  but 
the  fever  has  reduced  this  to  thirty-nine.  Most  of  these  are  old  stu- 
dents who  have  licen  engaged  in  the  work  for  sonic  time. 

Mr.  McCiaw  reports  specially  regarding  the  district  work: 

During  the  twelve  montlis,  606  people  renounced  their  idols  and  ac- 
cepted Christ  as  their  Saviour,  the  only  one  they  knew  about.  In  so 
far  as  they  have  been  able  to  take  in  the  new  teaching,  they  have  sin- 
cerely accepted  it. 

The  poverty  of  these  people  is  something  not  found  in  many  coun- 
tries. The  carpenter  caste  is  rather  higher  than  these  converts  were 
and  better  off  in  a  worldly  way.  From  a  Government  text-book  I  have 
culled  these  facts  about  a  carpenter  of  Etah  district.  The  family  con- 
sists of  six  persons,  two  of  whom  are  girls  to  be  married.  (The  cost 
of  one  wedding  would  be  about  $33-)  The  man  has  a  debt  of  $24. 
His  family  expenses  for  the  year  are  estimated  at  $35.  His  income  for 
the  year  is  estimated  at  $36,  which  leaves  an  unexpended  balance  of 
$1,  and  debt  and  daughters  still  on  hand.  A  list  of  household  articles 
and  tools  is  given  amounting  to  less  than  $5  for  all.  Our  Christians  are 
not  better  off.  Laborers'  wages  just  now  are  six  cents  a  day,  which  is 
one  cent  more  than  usual.  Some  of  our  fellow-Christians  work  for  the 
landlord  of  their  village  for  $1  per  month  plus  a  few  perquisites.  It 
is  from  such  wage-earners  that  we  expect  offerings  and  are  not  disap- 
pointed. 

There  is  one  thing  that  has  often  surprised  us — it  is  the  simple  faith 
of  these  people  in  their  God.  They  knew  only  the  vain  repetitions  of 
the  heathen  before,  but  now  they  know  that  God  hears  and  answers 
prayer.  More  is  expected  of  some  of  these  ignorant  villagers  than  seems 
to  be  expected  of  elders  of  the  church  in  some  places.  I  mean  in  regard 
to  praying  in  public. 

I  recently  asked  for  evidences  of  the  working  of  God's  Spirit 
among  the  people  and  got  among  others  the  following  answers : 
Knowledge  of  God,  change  of  heart,  preaching  of  Gospel  to  others,  dis- 
gust for  idolatr.v,  singing  of  Bhajans  under  persecution,  less  cursing 
and  swearing,  effect  of  the  observance  of  the  Lord's  Supper,  less  de- 
ception. Thus  slowly  and  gradually  a  large  community,  "a  nation,"  is 
being  born  and  learning  new  ways.  In  this  transformation,  the 
pastor-teacher  is  the  chief  factor.  Considering  their  past  and  the 
shortness  of  their  present,  and  the  lack  of  opportunity  for  securing 
what  we  regard  as  essential  to  the  growth  of  our  cliildren's 
character,  and  the  odds  against  them  in  this  religious  but  immoral  at- 


210  NORTH  INDIA— CAWNPORE. 

mosphere,  one  can  but  marvel  at  what  God  has  done  through  tliese 
young  men  and  their  wives  from  the  training  classes. 

We  rejoice  in  the  "good  hand  of  our  God  upon  us,"  which  has 
brought  into  our  Etah  Mission  within  nine  years  over  4,000  converts 
from  the  sweeper  caste.  During  this  time  we  have  spent  money,  time 
and  effort  to  develop  those  who  were  coming,  intellectually  and  spirit- 
ually. Progress  has  been  slow,  but  progress  there  has  been.  Education 
has  been  emphasized  because  of  its  vital  connection  with  their  spiritual 
uplift.  Scarcely  less  important  is  their  social  standing.  I  am  unable  to 
see  how  it  is  possible  to  make  of  these  submerged  people  a  strong 
church  until  they  have  been  raised  above  their  present  social  and  ma- 
terial condition. 

At  the  tiptop  of  the  Hindu  skyscraper  is  the  Brahman,  while  buried 
hundreds  of  feet  below  the  surface  of  independence  and  respectability 
are  the  despised  sweepers,  the  Bhungees.  In  the  exalted  brotherhood 
of  Hinduism  the  Bhungee  has  not  been  permitted  to  think  of  him- 
self as  one  of  the  brothers ;  indeed,  his  touch  is  more  defiling  by  far 
than  that  of  a  dog.  Some  of  them  are  village  watchmen,  employed  by 
Government;  some  are  employed  by  landlords  to  collect  taxes  and 
rents;  a  few  are  farmers;  but  honorable  employment,  education  and 
a  new  religion  do  not  avail  to  overcome  the  contempt  heaped  upon  them 
because  of  their  birth  in  that  caste. 

These  sweeper  Christians  are  unable  to  get  away  from  this  condition. 
Christianity  is  giving  them  ambition  to  get  up  and  away  from  the  past, 
but  what  avenues  of  escape  offer  themselves?  A  few  of  the  young  men 
are  becoming  teachers  and  still  fewer  will  become  pastors  of  country 
churches,  employed  as  part  of  the  Mission  probably.  A  few  will  drift, 
or  may  be  sent  to  Cawnpore  to  enter  the  mills,  but  what  of  the  thou- 
sands that  are  growing  up  with  no  outlook  but  that  of  the  old  one  of 
degradation  ? 

We  are  taught  by  the  past  to  expect  great  things  and  to  attempt  great 
things  also.  Ten  years  ago  Etah  was  an  out-station,  occupied  by  two 
or  three  Indian  workers,  with  a  Christian  community  of  about  twenty. 
To-day  it  has  100  Indian  workers,  4,652  Christians,  13  churches,  27 
out-stations,  43  schools,  and  Indian  contributions  amounting  to  over 
$200.  We  expect  and  shall  attempt  yet  greater  things  for  the  next 
decade. 

CAWNPORE  STATION. 

The  work  of  the  Station  has  been  much  interrupted  by  Mr, 
Gillam's  illness,  but  a  better  foothold  has  been  gained  in  Cawn- 
pore, where  there  are  great  multitudes  of  young  men  in  the 
mills  separated  from  their  home  restraints  and  free  to  listen 
and  to  act  save  for  the  abiding  bonds  of  caste.  Mr.  Gillam 
writes : 

Since  returning  I  have  done  some  work  in  villages,  having  made 
five  or  six  trips  in  the  mornings  to  villages  nearby,  and  having  gone 
hut  on  two  mornings  in  the  city  in  company  with  a  Christian  preacher. 
We  dealt  with  individuals  or  little  groups  of  hearers.  In  some  cases 
we  met  with  an  indifferent  reception ;  in  other  cases  we  had  ;i!i  e:irnest 
and  attentive  hearing.  On  one  occasion  we  had  a  group  of  putters  who 
gave  an  eager  hearing  to  what  was  said.  Men  here  and  tliere  gave 
frank  assent  to  the  truth,  but  when  pressed  as  to  action  gave  caste  and 
the  brotherhood  as  a  reason  for  not  becoming  Christians.  One  man 
in  the  city,  a  sweeper,  agreed  to  the  truth  of  what  was  said,  but  when 
told  that  mere  assent  was  not  enough,  and  when  the  illustration  of  a 


NORTH  INDIA— FATEIIPUR.  211 

medical  prescription  was  used  and  the  point  made  that  it  was  necessary 
to  have  it  filled  and  to  take  it,  he  said  that  he  couldn't  l)ecome  a 
Christian  because  of  his  brotherhood,  and  that  it  didn't  matter  what 
happened,  he  wouldn't  take  the  prescription  and  with  that  he  walked 
away.  With  many  even  though  the  question  of  caste  is  not  raised,  they 
raise  it  for  themselves,  and  it  forms  probably  the  chief  difficulty  in 
the  minds  of  those  who  in  any  wise  contemplate  becoming  Christians. 

FATEHPUR  STATION. 

A  large  part  of  Mr.  Mattison's  work  during  the  year  was  in 
connection  with  the  famine  reHef.     He  writes : 

Out  of  the  experiences  of  past  famines  there  has  been  formed  a 
definite  policy  of  Famine  Administration,  which  was  brought  into  opera- 
tion with  great  promptness  and  vigor.  A  strong  and  wise  Govern- 
ment by  its  alertness  and  insistence  made  its  determination  felt  clear 
down  to  the  village  watchman  in  the  remotest  hamlet.  For  the  bare 
saving  of  life  from  actual  starvation  and  epidemic  diseases  arising  out 
of  famine.  Government  has  held  its  officers  strictly  responsible,  and  has 
poured  out  money  as  water  for  this  purpose.  As  a  result  mortality 
statistics  have  l)een  kept  almost  if  not  quite  normal.  The  outstanding 
fact  is  that  this  Government  has  grappled  with  a  great  famine  so  suc- 
cessfully that  there  are  no  bone-strewn  fields  to  photograph.  Placards 
appeared  on  the  trees  even  in  the  most  remote  villages  and  hamlets  as- 
suring the  people  that  the  Government  would  stand  by  them  in  every 
way  and  that  they  were  not  to  give  way  to  fear  or  abandon  their  homes, 
and  that  the  Government  would  give  loans  of  money  for  seed,  for 
digging  wells,  for  buckets,  ropes  and  oxen  for  drawing  the  water  and 
for  various  irrigation  projects.  Constant  pressure  was  brought  to  bear 
upon  every  one  to  sow  every  field  about  whose  yield  there  could  be  any 
hope  at  all  based  upon  irrigation  or  upon  the  Winter  rains.  These 
vigorous  and  insistent  measures  secured  the  sowing  of  perhaps  57  per 
cent,  of  the  available  fields. 

In  addition  to  the  above,  the  Government  opened  every  available 
kind  of  work  to  enable  laborers  to  earn  at  least  enough  to  keep  from 
actual  starvation,  and  for  those  who  could  not  labor  provided  a  daily 
dole  which  was  calculated  to  sustain  life  at  least. 

I  was  asked  also  to  act  as  Honorary  Superintendent  of  Weavers 
Relief.  (I  may  say  that  all  my  official  work  has  been  as  honorary 
officer.)  We  have  26,000  weavers  in  this  district,  of  whom  I  am  now 
aiding  one-tenth  directly.  Government  pays  for  the  yarn  and  its  trans- 
portation and  gives  me  a  clerk  and  a  messenger.  Yarn  is  advanced  to 
the  most  needy  on  credit,  at  a  reduced  price.  The  weavers  whom  I 
have  admitted  to  relief  live  in  more  than  200  villages  scattered  through 
600  miles  of  territory. 

Finding  that  in  some  of  the  most  remote  places  large  numbers  of 
people  were  subsisting  upon  wild  berries  and  leaves  of  shrubs,  with 
very  occasional  supplement  of  worthless  grain  brought  in  by  sharks  and 
sold  for  five  times  the  usual  price,  I  purchased  good  grain  in  the 
Punjab  and  sent  it  in  to  them  and  sold  it  at  about  30  per  cent.  loss. 
This  form  of  relief  has  grown  until  we  now  have  shops  in  all  the  most 
distressed  spots. 

Our  grain  shops  will  continue  until  the  first  coarse  grains  ripen, 
August  I  to  15,  and  weaver  relief  perhaps  to  September  i.  The  organ- 
izing of  these  grain  shops,  purchasing  and  transporting  the  grain,  stock- 
ing and  distributing  the  yarn,  together  with  the  inspecting  work  men- 
tioned above  have  involved  a  lot  of  travel,  and  owing  to  the  nature 
of  the   country  have   required  an  amusing  variety   of  vehicles.     In   a 


212  NORTH  INDIA— STATISTICS. 

single  trip  I  pretty  nearly  compassed  the  catalogue — railway  and  bicycle, 
tomtoms,  tongas,  ekkas  and  bullock-carts  in  relays,  elephants  and  afoot, 
with  an  occasional  spill  for  rice.  Some  of  the  experiences  reminded  me 
of  what  a  civil  surgeon  said  to  me,  "What  a  pity,  Padri,  that  you  can- 
not swear !"  and  they  have  fully  convinced  me  that  there  is  just  one 
right  vehicle  for  a  missionary  in  the  jungle,  the  airship. 

A  few  have  already  been  baptized  and  are  leading  happy  Christian 
lives.  There  are  large  numbers  of  hopeful  inquirers,  and  good  ground 
for  expecting  a  real  movement  in  two  if  not  three  castes. 

People  of  all  classes  are  much  more  inclined  to  regard  us  as  true 
friends  of  the  people  and  not  mere  proselyters,  and  they  listen  to  our 
message  with  greater  respect  and  interest. 

Our  preachers  and  all  Christians  are  more  favorably  received  through- 
out tlie  district,  and  the  friendly  relations  with  the  Government  have 
been  made  even  more  cordial.

the  Maharaja  of  Kolhapur  to  act  as  guardians  and  tutors  to  his

children.  This  gave  them  the  responsible  task  of  preparing 
for  the  throne  Kolhapur's  future  ruler,  second  in  importance 
to  but  few  of  India's  princes.  Dr.  Irwin  began  this  work  with 
enthusiasm,  but  on  November  28,  1908,  he  was  called  to  his 
rest.  He  was  a  man  of  noble  character,  courageous  tem- 
perament and  a  devoted  servant  of  God.  At  his  funeral  there 
was  a  large  concourse,  not  only  of  the  lowly,  but  of  the  high- 
est ofificials,  and  all  joined  in  a  common  grief  in  the  loss  of  one 
whom  they  called  friend.  The  health  of  Mr.  and  Mrs. 
Marshall  has  not  been  sufficiently  restored  to  warrant  their  re- 
turn, although  they  hope  soon  to  be  able  to  start  for  India. 
Miss  B.  G.  Johnson  has  also  had  to  return  home  on  account 
of  her  health,  and  Drs.  Heston  and  McArthur  have  had  to 
delay  their  return  for  the  same  reason.  When  these  names 
are  added  to  those  on  furlough  it  creates  a  situation  that 
threatens  the  well-being  of  the  work.  It  is  a  fortunate  thing 
that  Miss  Clara  Seller,  who  spent  her  young  life  in  India  as 
the  daughter  of  one  of  our  former  missionaries,  has  been  ap- 
pointed and  will  start  for  the  field  in  the  early  Autumn.  Action 
has  also  been  taken  by  the  Board  looking  to  the  closer  affilia- 
tion of  the  Village  Settlement  and  the  Mission,  with  the  thought 
that  the  work  will  eventually  be  carried  on  as  a  part  of  the 
regular  work.  As  the  matter  is  now  in  process  of  adjustment, 
no  report  of  the  Settlement  appears  herewith. 

KOLHAPUR  STATION. 

EVANGELISTIC. — The  Kolhapur  Church  report  shows  no 
very  startling  facts,  except,  perhaps,  a  startling  need  for  the 
prayer,  "Revive  us  again."  Shivramji,  "faithful  and  beloved," 
has  been  at  his  post,  and  his  sermons  are  earnest,  strong  and 
telling.  Some  of  his  illustrations  are  delightful,  as  for  ex- 
ample one  about  the  spirit  of  boastfulness  and  conceit.  A  little 
girl  when  told  how  God  had  blessed  her  all  her  life  and  how 
dependent  upon  Him  she  was,  responded,  "But  just  look  what 
a  big  girl  I  am !  Well,  when  the  Lord  made  me  I  was  just 
a  little  thing,  and  I  grew  all  the  rest  myself." 

Attendance  at  the  regular  Sunday  afternoon  services  and 
midweek  prayer  meetings  has  been  good. 

Statistics  for  the  year  are  as  follows :

As  to  finances,  there  is  not  quite  so  much  to  boast  of  as 
there  should  be.  The  pastor's  salary  is  in  arrears  by  several 
rupees,  a  condition  that  the  members,  at  any  cost,  should 
remedy.    Tabulated,  the  finances  show  as  follows :

Wadgav  Church  has  been  without  a  pastor,  but  the  teacher, 
Mthoba  Bhople,  has  held  Sunday-school  and  conducted  preach- 
ing service  there.  He  sends  in  an  interesting  report,  telling 
how  closely  he  is  questioned  as  to  the  message  he  is  giving 
the  people,  and  what  they  ask.  For  example,  "Is  Christ  the 
only  Saviour,  and  why?"  He  adds,  "I  tell  them  to  examine 
the  evidences  of  Christianity  with  calm  minds  and  impartiality, 
and  get  yourselves  convinced  that  Christianity  is  the  true  re- 
ligion." 

Touring  has  been  carried  on  in  the  Kolhapur  District  mainly 
by  Mr.  Simpson.  At  the  beginning  of  the  season  he  was  ac- 
companied by  Mrs.  Simpson  for  a  time,  and  again  by  Mr. 
Graham,  in  December. 

As  illustrative  of  the  kind  of  work  done,  this  account  of 
the  methods  pursued  at  Nipani  is  of  interest: 

Here,  at  the  Nipani  bazaar,  and  in  every  place  where  some  event 
drew  unusual  crowds,  advantage  was  taken  of  the  opportunity  to 
teach  and  preach,  and  to  sell  books  to  the  Hindus.  From  Nipani 
camp  sixteen  towns  and  villages  were  visited,  and  a  total  of  741  persons 
received  the  message,  some  from  the  lantern  lectures,  some  from  the 
preaching,  and  to  all  and  sundry  books  were  sold  to  the  number  of 
292.  This  is  a  fair  example  of  how  the  Vv'ork  was  carried  on  at  Takari. 
Barvadi,  Pattan,  Kodoli,  Janvad,  Aksumba,  etc.,  with  stereopticon, 
literature  and  preaching.  The  idea  is  to  preach  the  Gospel,  in  any 
way  or  manner,  so  that  the  hearts  of  the  people  are  reached,  let  the 
channel  be  what  it  will — eye,  ear  or  mind,  and  therein  we  rejoice- 
yea,  and  will  rejoice! 

The  summary  of  the  year's  work,  till  the  breaking  of  the  rains,  is 
as  follows  : 

Camps    made    ^4

216  WESTERN  INDIA— KOLHAPUR. 

Sunday-schools. — In  the  main  Kolhapur  School  the  attend- 
ance was  anywhere  between  240  and  290.  A  large  number  of 
boys  and  girls  appeared  for  the  all-India  examination,  and  it 
was  counted  a  high  honor  when  the  big  middle  division  silver 
medal  was  awarded  to  Vishram  Shivramji,  one  of  the  Mission 
high  school  boys  in  Dr.  Irwin's  Sunday-school.  Several  of 
the  scholars  and  teachers  stood  very  high,  and  received  certifi- 
cates to  that  effect.  The  school  subscribed  for  seventy-five 
weekly  copies  of  Balshikshak.  Again  this  year,  one  of  the 
teachers,  Meghsham,  took  the  medal  in  the  teachers'  class. 

A  Sunday-school  on  the  Mission  compound  is  success- 
fully carried  on  by  Miss  Patton  with  a  membership  of  sixty- 
five.  Mr.  Simpson  superintends  a  Sunday-school  which  has 
been  opened  in  the  Mahar  Warda  with  a  membership  of  forty 
and  an  attendance  of  thirty-one.  Wadgav  has  twenty-five 
pupils  in  Sunday-school,  of  whom  some  sixteen  are  usually 
present.  Savade  has  sixteen  and  twelve  attend,  and  Herla 
fifteen  and  ten.  It  would  appear  that  some  460  to  475  boys 
and  girls  in  the  district  are  being  reached,  and  have  at  least 
heard  echoes  of  the  voice  of  God.  The  problem  is  to  hold  all 
these  with  an  ever-strengthening  grip. 

With  regard  to  the  work  of  the  Bible  women,  Punadai  and 
Radhabai,  Miss  Patton  writes : 

Some  homes  have  been  closed  against  their  visits  and  others  opened. 
For  two  weeks  they  were  in  the  neighborhoods  of  Kini  and  Wadgav, 
where  they  sought  out  the  old  pupils  of  our  schools,  many  of  whom  had 
married  and  settled  in  that  vicinity.  Some  had  gone  back  into  Hindu- 
ism, and  these  they  tried  to  win  back.  All  the  old  reasons  were  pro- 
duced to  excuse  their  conduct.  It  seemed  that  the  Christian  way  was 
severe.  Why,  really,  one  could  not  steal  comfortably,  or  even  work 
on  Sunday  without  reproof,  to  say  nothing  of  making  a  profitable 
marriage  for  one's  daughter !  But  in  the  last  analysis,  the  true  reason 
seemed  to  be  that  they  could  not  endure  the  persecution  and  separa- 
tion from  their  caste.  Poor  souls !  Astonishing  as  has  been  their 
progress  in  some  ways,  in  some  others  how  small  it  seems  !  Yet  we 
must  remember  that  we  are  not  called  upon  to  suffer  for  the  Name, 
and  should  wot  judge  these  poor  deserters  harshly.  They  are  the 
lost  sheep,  the  lost  coin,  the  prodigal.  Let  us  help  search  and  find 
them. 

EDUCATIONAL. — Mr.  Simpson  reports  ten  day-schools, 
Miss  Brown  two,  and  Miss  Patton  one. 

The  Shiikravar  Boys'  School,  plague  to  the  contrary  notwithstanding, 
stood  firm  through  the  year,  though  reduced  at  one  time  to  eleven.  It 
is  reported  that  of  those  who  continued  in  the  school,  none  was  lost. 
We  think  we  should  have  been  allowed  to  guess  that,  but  do  not 
blame  the  one  who  told  us.  Vithoba  Hazari  and  a  Brahmin  assistant 
have  charge  of  the  school.  Vithoba  and  his  boys  are  much  in  evi- 
dence in  the  Sunday-school.  Total  enrollment  for  the  year  of  309 
weekdays,  166 ;  average  daily  attendance,  36.6.

Putting  these  facts  together  we  get  these  totals : 

314     boys  and  girls  are  being  taught  in  these 

10      schools,  which  run  an  average  of 
167.8  days  out  of  the  year,  and  have 

12.4  average  attendance. 

For  Somvar  School  Miss  Browne  reports  that  it  has  taught 
a  few  non-readers  to  read ;  that  the  girls  learn  Scripture  verses, 
and,  she  hopes,  take  them  home. 

The  year,  however,  was  not  without  anxiety.  Miss  Browne 
writes : 

In  May  the  exodus  came.  The  little  Princess  of  Kolhapur  was 
married,  so  every  other  girl  big  enough  to  walk  wanted  to  be  married 
likewise.  My  best  and  biggest  went.  For  two  months  and  a  half 
the  school  was  closed  on  account  of  plague.  The  average  attendance 
is  only  twenty-five,  although  eighty-nine  names  have  been  on  the  roll 
for  shorter  or  longer  periods. 

Aiditvar  School  has  kept  open  ten  months  of  the  year. 
Forty-nine  names  having  been  enrolled.  Average  attendance 
twelve. 

Girls'  Boarding  School. — Miss  Patton's  report  begins  with 
the  words: 

There  is  nothing  new  or  wonderful  to  write,  unless  it  be  a  wonder 
that  227  girls,  from  almost  as  many  different  families,  of  different 
dispositions,  and  of  different  castes,  and  every  one  with  a  great 
deal  left  over  of  ancient  barbarism — "just  like  me" — have  been  able  to 
live  and  work  together  another  year  without  biting  and  devouring  one 
another. 

The  work  in  the  three  homes,  with  the  exception  of  the  washing, 
has  been  done  by  the  work  classes ;  all  the  older  girls  taking  turns 
at  cooking,  washing  dishes,  grinding,  carrying  water,  combing  hair 
(there  are  no  ladies'  maids!),  and  cleaning  the  house  and  yards,  while 
the  little  ones  help  wherever  they  can.  Without  calling  this  either  an 
"Industrial  School"  or  a  "College  of  Domestic  Science,"  Miss  Patton 
sees  to  it  that  no  girl  leaves  in  ignorance  of  these  important  branches. 

The  girls  have  kept  up  their  prayer  and  Missionary  meetings  and 
have  promised  to  give,  out  of  their  fund,  a  rupee  a  month  toward  the 
support  of  the  evangelist  employed  by  Presbytery.  They  paid  the 
expenses  of  a  short  evangelistic  tour  made  during  vacation  by  one  of 
their  teachers. 


218  WESTERN  INDIA— RATNAGIRI. 

The  Boys'  High  School  is  reported  upon  by  Dr.  and  Mrs. 
Irwin.  From  the  hostel  the  school  returned  to  the  city  in  Novem- 
ber, the  danger  from  plague  being  over.  But  in  the  meantime 
they  had  lost  almost  all  the  non-Christian  students  from  town. 
Next,  water  troubles  developed  at  the  hostel.  The  Moham- 
medans, it  seems,  became  caste  people,  and  joined  with  Hindus 
in  objecting  to  the  use  of  the  public  well  by  low-caste  Chris- 
tians, "lest  it  be  defiled  and  we  could  not  use  it." 

For  months  a  great  effort  was  made  in  vain  to  secure  a 
head  master,  but  it  was  impossible  to  secure  one  for  what  the 
principal  could  offer.  Beginning  in  October,  tutoring  work 
carried  on  for  His  Highness  the  Maharaja  brought  an  income 
just  sufficient  to  square  the  school's  accounts.  It  has  been  most 
interesting  work. 

"In  the  middle  of  March,"  Dr.  Irwin  records,  "we  held  our 
first  graduation  of  the  Theological  School,  and  three  good 
young  men  were  licensed  to  preach,  by  Presbytery,  which 
voted  Rs.  25  for  support  of  the  school.  The  school-boys  have 
done  well  in  their  Sunday-schools,  Endeavor  Society,  Y.  M. 
C.  A.,  etc." 

In  the  Alice  Home  for  Widows  there  have  been  twenty-six 
women. 

Two  of  them  are  now  regularly  employed  as  school  teachers,  and 
two  as  Ayahs.  Three  more,  by  turns,  go  with  a  Bible  woman  into 
town  to  visit.  All  take  part  in  the  home  work  and  in  the  care  of 
the  twenty-five  little  ones  in  the  nursery.  Spending  money  is  given 
to  each  woman  every  month— eight  cents  apiece — but  this  amount  is 
subject  to  cut  for  quarreling.  Out  of  this  sum  they  give  their  regular 
Sunday  contributions  and  their  share  toward  the  support  of  the  pastor. 

The  widows,  with  their  three  children,  were  baptized  in  January. 
Of  the  twenty-two  at  present  in  the  Home,  only  one  is  unbaptized. 
Ten  passed  the  examinations  in  the  Bible  women's  course. 

The  Nursery.— VJhoo^mg  cough  has  been  amongst  us,  leaving  only 
ten  out  of  the  twenty-five  babies  not  retired  from  duty  on  that  account. 

There  is  a  chubby,  round-faced  one  in  the  nursery,  who  is  an  un- 
tainted child  of  a  leper  woman  at  Mirja.  It  was  a  great  wrench  for 
the  mother  to  give  her  up,  but  Shaou  is  happy  here  and  has  found 
another  mother.  We  have  Moses,  Aaron  and  Jacob  among  our  infants. 
Aaron  seemed  to  be  fading  away,  but  two  months  in  Kodoli  Hos- 
pital almost  made  a  man  of  him. 

RATNAGIRI  STATION. 

EVANGELISTIC. — The  regular  Church  services,  Sunday- 
school  and  midweek  prayer  meetings  have  been  carried  on 
throughout  the  year.  Until  he  left  the  Mission,  Mr.  Kernen, 
together  with  the  elders,  conducted  the  services.  Occasion- 
ally they  were  assisted  by  Mr.  Sawarkar,  the  Government 
Educational  Inspector. 

Two  of  the  widows  have  been  baptized  and  received  into 
full  communion,  and  six  children  have  been  baptized. 


WESTERN  INDIA— RATNAGIRI.  219 

The  Young  Women's  Christian  Association  has  held  its 
meetings  throughout  the  year.  The  women  and  girls  have 
conducted  the  weekly  meetings  in  turn. 

Joshua  Ramchandra  Juigadi  reports  for  the  Young  Men's 
Christian  Association  that  there  are  thirty-five  members.  Of 
these  six  are  honorary,  seventeen  are  active,  and  twelve  as- 
sociate members.  Some  students  from  the  Government  High 
School  are  associate  members. 

The  reading  room  is  open  daily,  but  there  has  been  a  de- 
crease in  the  number  of  readers  this  year,  because  of  the  open- 
ing of  two  free  reading  rooms  conducted  on  Swadeshi  prin- 
ciples. 

Bible  Study. — Bible  study  classes  for  women  have  been  held 
throughout  the  rainy  season.  Five  women  passed  an  examina- 
tion on  the  third  part  of  "What  the  Bible  teaches  about  the 
Holy  Spirit,"  and  two  "on  the  Acts  of  the  Apostles." 

Orphanage. — Mr.  Kernen  writes : 

The  health  of  the  children  has  been  unusually  good  this  year,  even 
during  the  rains.  A  few  new  children  have  been  admitted.  One  little 
sober-faced  lad,  about  four,  was  sent  to  us  from  Vengurle.  He  appears 
so  much  brighter  that  one  can  scarcely  believe  he  is  the  same  boy.  At 
first  he  would  speak  to  no  one,  except  to  the  little  ones  of  his  own 
age.  Then  he  took  the  Sahib  into  his  intimate  circle,  and  is  now 
quite  at  home. 

The  two  older  girls,  who  have  acted  as  assistant  matrons,  have 
done  their  work  faithfully  and  well.  Lately  a  woman  of  good  edu- 
cation and  ability  has  been  secured  as  matron  for  the  girls,  and  the 
two  older  girls  have  continued  to  do  their  work  under  her  super- 
vision. 

Two  of  our  Orphanage  girls  have  been  married.  One  of  the  bride- 
grooms had  also  been  one  of  our  boys,  while  the  other  had  come  in 
famine  days,  and  although  he  had  been  away  for  a  time,  he  subse- 
quently returned  to  us.  This  was  the  first  wedding  to  take  place  from 
among  the  children  brought  up  in  the  Home.  One  of  the  Elders  took 
the  opportunity  to  point  out  the  difference  between  the  simple  Chris- 
tian wedding  and  the  ordinary  extravagant  Hindu   ceremony. 

EDUCATIONAL. — Station  School. — Concerning  the  Sta- 
tion School  Mr.  Kernen  writes : 

The  results  of  another  school  year  have  been,  on  the  whole,  good, 
and  improvement  can  be  observed  along  various  lines.  The  Inspector 
was  specially  pleased  with  the  work  of  the  drawing  classes. 

Two  girls  were  sent  to  Sholafur  last  Fall  for  kindergarten  training. 
Very  encouraging  reports  of  their  progress  have  been  received. 

After  the  High  School  was  closed  in  Kolhapur  in  June,  the  High 
School  boys  from  Ratnagiri  were  sent  to  the  American  Mission  High 
School  in  Bombay.  This  is  one  of  the  most  excellent  High  Schools 
in  this  part  of  India.  It  is  especially  for  Christian  boys  and  girls. 
The  masters  are  the  best  that  can  be  had.  A  spirit  of  manly  inde- 
pendence is  characteristic  of  the  boys.  The  whole  burden  of  admin- 
istration does  not  fall  upon  the  missionary,  but  the  masters  anil 
children  assist.     Our  boys,  who  have  been  only  in   small  classes  here- 


220  WESTERN  INDIA— RATNAGIRI. 

tofore,  and  have  missed  the  enthusiasm  which  comes  of  larger  numbers, 
cannot  fail  to  be  helped  by  the  change. 

Bazar  School. — Miss  Unsworth  writes : 

There  are  about  thirty  boys  and  girls  coming  to  school  at  the 
present  time.  They  are  Hindus,  Kojas  and  Goanese.  Seventeen 
passed  the  examination  held  by  the  Inspector  in  August.  God  is 
blessing  our  school  work,  for  several  of  the  girls  who  are  married 
and  live  in  the  village  tell  us  that  they  read  the  Bible  and  pray  in 
the  name  of  Jesus  in  their  homes.  They  often  sing  the  hymns  and 
tell  others  of  Him. 

The  experiment  has  been  tried  of  getting  the  mothers  of  the  chil- 
dren to  come  to  the  school  for  an  hour  a  week  when  the  children 
were  not  there.  Cloth  was  provided  for  them,  and  while  learning  to 
sew  they  were  taught  some  of  the  hymns  and  told  of  Jesus.  At  our 
first  meeting  last  Saturday  twelve  women  came.  Some  were  a  little 
afraid  at  first,  but  gained  courage  after  a  time.  Please  pray  that  they 
may  learn  more  than  sewing. 

There  are  eighteen  widows  in  all,  and  they  are  employed  in  various 
ways.  Four  are  engaged  in  the  rice  industry,  six  are  engaged  in 
sewing,  and  do  drawn-thread  work,  one  cares  for  a  little  baby  in  the 
Orphanage,  two  are  working  in  Christian  families,  and  others  are  em- 
ployed about  the  compound,  and  one  is  a  personal  servant  to  Miss  Uns- 
worth. 

Two  of  them  have  confessed  Christ  in  baptism,  and  others  are 
eagerly  inquiring. 

A  Hymn  of  Praise.— One  old  woman  has  been  very  ill.  The  first  day 
she  felt  that  she  was  getting  better  she  said,  "Sing  a  praise  hymn;  Jesus 
has  brought  me  here  and  saved  me,  and  made  me  well  again."  One  day 
she  told  Miss  Jefferson  that  she  would  like  the  same  to  be  done  in  her 
village  that  had  been  done  in  Ambe  Shet ;  that  is,  a  school  opened,  and  in 
the  future  wants  her  grandson,  Bhiwa,  now  a  student  in  school,  to 
go  there  and  teach  the  school  and  teach  the  people  how  to  be  saved. 

Leper  Hospital. — The  Leper  Hospital  has  been  visited  regu- 
larly throughout  the  year.  The  women  have  been  visited  by 
Miss  Minor  or  Miss  Jefferson,  accompanied  by  Koudubai,  the 
Bible  woman,  while  the  two  helpers  have  visited  the  men. 
There  is  great  cause  for  praise  to  God,  when  one  compares 
the  condition  of  the  leper  women  now  with  what  it  was  a  few 
years  ago.  The  hard  faces  have  softened  and  there  is  much 
more  response  from  them.     Koudubai  says : 

The  Lord  is  surely  working  among  them,  and  they  gladly  sit  and 
listen  to  the  story  and  like  the  pictures.  Sometimes  at  Christmas  they 
get  sweets,  and  in  the  season  have  jack  fruit  and  mangoes.  One 
time  they  said,  "Don't  get  any  more  sweets ;  but  we  have  one  special 
request,  and  that  is  we  want  sandals,  because  our  feet  are  full  of  sores 
and  the  stones  hurt  them."  Several  of  us  prayed  for  the  money  and 
God  out  of  the  fulness  of  His  grace  sent  it.  The  day  the  sandals 
were  received  was  a  great  day  at  the  hospital.  The  friends  in  America 
who  made  it  possible  to  give  the  sandals  would  have  been  pleased  to 
have  seen  the  pleasure  they  gave  and  the  added  comfort  to  those  who 
have  so  little  to  make  them  happy. 

Touring. — Miss    Minor,    Miss   Jefferson    and    three    of   the 


WESTERN  INDIA— RATNAGIRI  221 

Bible  women  spent  about  five  weeks  in  touring  in  the  villages 
about  Pali  and  Lauza.  They  visited  all  the  villages  about  Pali 
that  were  accessible  and  a  good  number  of  those  near  Lauza. 
They  found  the  people  in  various  villages,  who  were  formerly 
so  much  afraid,  willing  and  attentive  listeners. 

"Patient  Soul  Winning." — At  one  place  a  gruff  old  man  was  not  going 
to  let  us  come  in,  but  he  finally  did  so,  and  we  had  a  large  company  of 
women.  Koudubai  said  that  three  years  ago  he  flourished  a  stick  and 
wouldn't  let  them  come  near.  Last  year  he  let  them  come  and  sing,  but 
would  allow  no  preaching.  This  year  he  let  us  do  both,  and  she  thinks 
that  next  year,  if  he  is  spared,  he  will  sit  and  listen  for  himself,  as  God 
seems  to  be  softening  his  heart. 

The  Sound  of  the  Grinding. — Miss  Jefferson  writes : 

The  sound  of  grinding  at  a  mill  in  a  small  cottage  attracted  my 
attention,  and  I  ventured  to  call  out  to  the  unseen  woman.  The 
response  was,  "Yes,  I  am  coming,  but  I  cannot  walk  fast."  Soon  a 
partially  paralyzed  form,  with  a  most  pitiful  face  stood  before  me. 
Eagerly  did  she  try  to  hear  and  understand  the  new  and  wondrous 
story.  "What  did  you  say  was  the  name  of  the  Saviour?"  she  ques- 
tioned. Reverently  the  name  "Lord  Jesus"  was  uttered  for  the  first 
time  by  those  lips.  Hopelessly  she  related  her  story  thus :  "I  have 
been  to  Pandarpur  (I  was  well  in  those  days)  and  have  seen  Vithoba. 
I  have  called  upon  him.  I  have  called  upon  Narayan,  Rama  and  others, 
but  all  to  no  profit.  I  have  sought  death,  but  it  would  not  come.  I 
have  tried  to  hang  myself,  but  I  did  not  die.  I  threw  myself  into  a 
well,  but  I  was  not  drowned."  "The  Lord  Jesus  has  spared  you 
that  you  might  hear  this  story,"  replied  Kondubai,  the  Bible  woman. 
"Yes,  it  seems  to  me  I  have  met  God  to-day,  and  if  I  were  only  able 
I  should  follow  you  and  minister  to  you  in  the  most  menial  ways. 
I  did  not  know  before  that  I  should  not  worship  idols,  but  I  shall 
call  only  upon  the  name  of  the  Lord  Jesus  after  this."  These  and 
many  more  were  the  expressions  of  that  heart  so  ready  to  believe 
and  receive.  Earnestly  she  poured  out  her  heart  in  simple  faith  and 
prayer  to  the  Lord  to  have  mercy  upon  a  poor  sinner.  After  saying 
farewell  and  going  to  another  house,  I  felt  I  must  return  and  give 
an  additional  word  of  assurance.  She  met  me  at  the  back  door, 
saying,  "Yes,  I  have  been  praying  while  I  was  grinding.  I  have  tried 
so  many  times  to  take  my  life,  but  the  Lord  Jesus  has  spared  me  that 
I  might  hear  of  Him.  Tell  Him  my  name  is  Paravatabia.  Pray  for 
a  poor  sinner." 

A  week  later,  before  leaving  our  camping  place,  we  again  visited 
the  town  where  this  woman  lived.  To  our  great  joy  Paravatabia 
responded  to  our  call  and  gladly  listened  as  before.  Turning  to  our 
Bible  woman  she  said,  "Tell  me  out  of  your  Book  when  I  shall  find 
peace.  I  forgot  to  ask  you  when  you  were  here  before."  Kondubai 
repeated  the  Saviour's  promise,  and  assured  her  that  through  believ- 
ing she  would  find  peace.  A  group  of  men  and  boys  gathered  about 
the  door.  She  will  not  dare  confess  her  faith  before  them,  my  un- 
believing heart  suggested.  But  clear  and  true  rang  out  her  testi- 
mony that  she  no  longer  worshiped  idols,  and  that  she  believed  in 
Jesus  Christ  as  her  Saviour.    "Say  not,  ye,  there  are  yet  four  months 

and   then    cometh    harvest Look   on    the    fields,    for    they   are 

white  already  to  harvest." 

OUT-STATION  PALI.~The  work  of  this  out-station  is 


222  WESTERN  INDIA— KODOLI. 

in  charge  of  two  trusted  helpers,  Govindrao  Malap  as  preacher, 
and  Dagadaba  as  master  of  the  school. 

Govindrao's  village  is  close  to  Pali  and  he  frequently  visits 
his  old  home  and  seeks  to  lead  his  people,  the  farmer  caste, 
to  a  higher  way.  Years  ago  when  he  went  back  to  his  home 
for  the  first  time  after  becoming  a  Christian,  his  father  met 
him  and  gave  him  a  thrashing  for  attempting  to  preach  Chris- 
tianity. Govindrao  now  says  that  the  attitude  of  the  people  of 
the  village  is  quite  changed  and  they  receive  him  in  a  friendly 
manner. 

Dagadaba  has  been  carrying  on  the  school  in  an  efficient 
manner.  A  lawyer,  who  came  to  the  village  in  the  hot  season, 
preached  against  the  school  and  succeeded  in  keeping  the  chil- 
dren away  for  a  while.  However,  they  are  now  all  back  again 
and  at  work.  The  Government  Inspector  speaks  well  of  this 
school.  Work  has  also  been  carried  on  at  Ambe  Shet  and 
Patavane,  with  varying  success,  under  the  guidance  of  Miss 
Jefferson  and  Miss  Minor. 

OUT-STATION  PATAVANE.— Miss  Minor  writes : 

The  work  in  the  scliool  at  Patavane  has  gone  on  well  throughout 
the  year.  The  school  was  examined  hy  the  Government  Educational 
Inspector  last  December.  At  that  time,  out  of  fifteen  examined,  twelve 
passed  and  were  promoted  into  higher  standards.  The  master  and 
scholars  were  much  encouraged  by  the  results  of  this  examination, 
and  are  now  working  hard  to  be  prepared  for  the  coming  examination 
in  November. 

KODOLI  STATION. 

During  the  last  part  of  the  year  the  work  has  been  divided 
as  follows :  Dr.  Wilson  has  charge  of  the  hospital  and  the 
dispensary  and  of  the  evangelistic  work  of  the  Station.  Mrs. 
Wilson  cares  for  the  women's  school  and  the  women's  prayer 
meeting,  besides  looking  after  the  orphanage  children  in  Chris- 
tian homes.  Miss  Foster,  besides  her  work  as  nurse  in  the 
hospital,  visits  in  the  villages  and  has  a  day-school  and  a  Sab- 
bath-school in  her  charge.  Miss  Brown  has  the  industrial  de- 
partment of  the  boys'  and  girls'  schools  and  attends  to  the 
clothing  of  the  boys.  Miss  Johnson  has  charge  of  the  Girls' 
School  and  Dormitory,  conducts  the  children's  C.  E.  Society, 
and  has  the  care  of  an  out-station  school.  Mr.  Howard  is 
Treasurer  of  the  Brownie  Orphanage  and  has  charge  of  the 
boys'  school. 

EVANGELISTIC— Dr.  Wilson  writes: 

The  spiritual  condition  of  the  indigenous  Church  is  naturally  the 
most  important  subject  in  a  Mission  or  Station  Report.     Would  that 


WESTERN  INDIA— KODOLI.  223 

we  could  say  that  the  churches  in  the  Kodoli  field  were  ready  to  assume 
their  full  evangelistic  responsibility. 

All  of  the  services  have  been  maintained  regularly,  of  course, 
throughout  the  year,  both  in  Kodoli  and  Ayatiwada.  There  has 
been  a  marked  increase  in  interest  in  Bible  study  on  the  part 
of  many,  especially  of  the  helpers,  and  as  shown  by  the  attend- 
ance on  the  women's  Bible  classes.  Several  of  our  young  men  have 
been  led  to  take  very  seriously  their  responsibility  for  voluntary  evan- 
gelistic work  here  and  in  the  village  communities  around  us.  That 
this  is  a  genuine  interest  is  shown  by  the  fact  that  since  the  i8th  of 
May  we  have  held,  with  their  help,  forty-four  evangelistic  services 
in  the  evenings  in  ten  different  towns,  at  which  134  addresses  were 
made.  These  towns  were  from  two  to  eight  miles  distant,  but  four 
to  ten  of  these  young  men  were  present  every  time,  walking,  of  course, 
both  ways. 

Sidramji  reports: 

In  all,  about  fifteen  or  sixteen  villages  were  reached  by  itinera- 
tion. Besides  that,  in  the  dispensary,  in  the  bazaar,  at  street  corners 
and  cross-roads,  in  the  heathen  public  meeting  house,  in  the  tanners' 
quarter,  in  the  potters'  quarter,  in  the  Mahar  and  Mang  wards,  and  in 
other  places,  according  to  opportunity,  Christ  has  been  presented. 

A  Pointed  Question. — In  one  village  the  chief  officer  of  the  district 
sought  an  interview  with  us.  He  said,  "If  your  religion  is  true,  then  how 
is  it  that  in  England,  America,  Germany,  and  other  places,  there  are 
strife,  war,  tumults  and  bloodshed?  Your  religion  is  holy  is  it  not?  Then 
how  do  such  things  arise?  That  Queen  Bloody  Mary  beheaded  many 
Protestants?  Is  that  a  holy  religion?"  Our  reply  was  that  she  was 
not  a  true  Christian ;  that  not  all  the  people  in  a  country  are  true 
Christians ;  many  are  so  only  in  name.  Only  those  are  real  Chris- 
tians whose  disposition  has  been  renewed  by  the  Lord  Jesus  Christ, 
who  have  received  a  new  mind  from  Him.  Through  His  propitiation, 
His  blood,  everj'one  may  become  a  real  Christian.  The  officer 
answered,  "Yes,  that  is  true,  for  without  blood  there  is  no  forgiveness 
of  sin." 

Village  Work. — Miss  Foster  writes: 

There  is  great  pleasure  in  village  work.  We  go  out  with  the 
Bible  women.  The  people  ask  us  to  sit  down.  Perhaps  they  have 
spread  out  a  blanket  for  us  to  sit  on,  or  it  may  be  on  the  veranda  of 
a  house,  or  in  the  shade  of  the  house  in  the  street.  A  hymn  is  sung. 
During  the  singing  the  people  gather  around.  Then,  the  same  sweet 
Gospel  message  is  told.  Some  have  never  heard ;  others  have  heard 
before — perhaps  it  was  from  some  of  our  Christian  workers,  or  in 
the  hospital  that  they  heard  of  Jesus.  Sometimes  we  meet  with 
opposition,  but  that  does  not  discourage.  Generally  the  people  listen 
attentively.  We  meet  many  in  these  villages  who  have  been  to  the 
hospital  for  attention  ;  they  are  always  glad  to  see  us  and  they  make 
us  welcome.     They  seem  to  appreciate  the  kindness  shown  them. 

Sabbath-school. — 

The  Sabbath-school  has  an  average  attendance  of  about  200.  There 
are  twelve  classes.  There  is  a  men's  Bible  class  of  fifty  or  sixty  men. 
Dr.  Wilson  conducts  the  weekly  meeting  of  the  teachers.  He  had  been 
emphasizing  the  importance  of  teaching  the  Bible  and  not  simply  talk- 
ing.    A   Sabbath  or  two  after   that,   some   of  the  men   said   to  their 


224  WESTERN  INDIA— KODOLI. 

Sabbath-school  teacher,  "Why  do  3'ou  continually  quote  the  Bible  and 
appeal  to  the  Bible?  Talk  to  us,  preach  to  us,  but  don't  give  us  the 
Bible."  They  were  ready  to  listen  to  a  long  talk  about  nothing  and 
pay  no  attention ;  but  the  truths  of  the  Bible  were  beginning  to  call 
for  obedience. 

Mang  Sabbath-school. — 

The  Sabbath-school  in  the  Mang  ward  has  been  well  attended  during 
the  year.  Some  of  the  mothers  and  fathers,  as  well  as  the  children, 
attend.  It  is  held  on  a  veranda  of  a  heathen  home.  The  children 
have  been  taught  hymns  in  the  school,  and  they  sing  them  sweetly. 
When  they  begin  to  sing  the  older  people  gather,  though  they  cannot 
sing.  They  are  taught  the  golden  text,  verses  of  Scripture  and  the 
catechism. 

Besides  the  Christian  Endeavor  Societies  under  the  care  of 
Miss  Johnson  there  is  a  woman's  class,  of  which  Mrs.  Wilson 
writes : 

A  few  more  women  have  been  enrolled  this  year  than  last.  There 
has  also  been  very  real  interest  in  Bible  study,  and  growth  in  the 
spiritual  lives  of  several  women.  Seventeen  women  took  the  Mission's 
Bible  women's  examination  in   September,  fifteen  passing. 

There  has  also  been  considerable  visiting  in  the  homes  by 
Miss  Foster  which  has  opened  the  way  for  much  quiet  evan- 
gelistic work,  the  fruits  of  which  will  only  be  revealed  in  time. 

EDUCATIONAL. — Brozvnie  Orphanage. — The  number  of 
children  in  care  of  the  Brownie  Orphanage  has  varied  more 
or  less  during  the  year.  At  the  close  of  September  it  was  as 
follows : 

Children  in  Christian  homes   under  Mrs.  Wilson's  care 14 

In  girls'  dormitory   38 

In  boys'  dormitory   82 

In  Kolhapur  Girls'  School     58 

In  Sangli  Trades   School    31 

In  Pandita  Ramabai's  home 2 

In  American    Mission    High    School,    Bombay I 

226 

Boys 124 

Girls    102 

Total 226 

Boys'  School. — The  average  attendance  for  the  year  was 
eighty-three;  for  the  last  month  (September)  it  was  ninety- 
nine. 

The  boys'  dormitory  is  the  home  for  eighty-two  of  the  school- 
boys. Many  of  these  are  orphans,  many  have  parents.  Some- 
times the  parents  are  unable  to  care  for  their  children;  often 


WESTERN  INDIA— KODOLl.  225 

it  is  considered  better  for  the  boy's  spiritual  welfare  to  be  in  the 
dormitory  than  to  be  in  his  home.  In  many  cases,  too,  the  child 
would  not  be  sent  to  school  at  all  were  he  not  receiving  this 
help.  The  people  do  not  yet  appreciate  the  value  of  an  educa- 
tion enough  to  sacrifice  themselves  much  in  order  to  give  their 
children  a  schooling. 

Girls'  School. — Of  this  school  Miss  Foster  writes : 

When  Miss  Graham  went  on  furlough  in  March,  I  took  over  the 
Christian  Girls'  School  and  the  boarding  department  of  the  Brownie 
Orphanage  in  connection  with  the  school,  and  though  a  new  work,  I 
enjoyed  it.  During  vacation  a  number  of  the  orphan  girls  had  to  be 
looked  after  in  the  dormitory.  It  kept  me  busy  trying  to  find  amuse- 
ment for  them,  so  as  to  keep  them  happy. 

There  are  fifty-five  pupils  in  the  school.  Thirty-eight  of  these  live 
in  the  dormitory  and  seventeen  come  in  as  day  pupils.  They  all  seem 
to  enjoy  their  studies,  and  are  doing  nicely  in  their  school  work. 

In  the  Second  Standard  we  have  9  pupils 

In  the  First  Standard,  A  Division,  we  have 15       " 

In  the  First  Standard,  B  Division,  we  have 7      " 

In  the  Binetta,  or  Primary  Division,  we  have 24      " 

Industrial  Department. — 

From  the  beginning  of  the  year  the  interest  and  progress  in  indus- 
trial work  was  as  good  as  could  be  expected  for  the  short  time  devoted 
to  it.  Since  June  i,  when  double  the  time  was  allowed  for  every  boy, 
the  interest  and  efficiency  increased  accordingly.  Another  factor  which 
is  helping  toward  good  work  is  that  the  boys  receive  marks  for  work 
done  in  Sloyd  School,  as  well  as  for  progress  in  book  knowledge. 
Consequently,  some  boys  who  were  slow  in  some  of  their  studies,  but 
good  in  their  manual  work,  took  a  better  standing.  One  class  of  the 
older  boys  have  been  encouraged  to  fill  orders  for  small  useful  articles, 
for  which  they  receive  pay.  Such  work,  however,  must  be  done  out 
of  regular  school  hours,  and  does  not  entitle  them  to  any  extra  marks. 
We  are  making  our  first  crude  attempts  at  chip  carving,  and  when 
some  boys  become  expert  in  this  line,  they  will  be  able  to  make  fancy 
articles  for  those  who  need  them. 

There  are  thirty-two  classes  a  week  under  the  care  of  two 
assistants. 

High  School  Boys. — Besides  the  educational  work  car- 
ried on  in  Kodoli,  the  Station  has  sent  seven  boys  to  the 
American  Mission  High  School  in  Bombay.  It  is  hoped  that 
these  young  men  will  come  back  prepared  to  take  up  work  as 
teachers  or  other  Mission  helpers,  and  that  the  villages  around 
may  become  a  good  field  for  their  work. 

MEDICAL. — Hospital  and  Dispensary. — There  is  nothing 
unusual  to  report  in  work  of  hospital  and  dispensary.  The  at- 
tendance has  been  fair  and  to  all  in-patients  the  Gospel  has 
been  faithfully  presented.  The  exceedingly  heavy  rains  of 
July  and  August  so  isolated  Kodoli  that  the  attendance  of 


226  WESTERN  INDIA— SANGLI. 

patients  fell  to  a  lower  point  than  ever  since  the  work  was  es- 
tablished.   Dr.  Wilson  says : 

There  have  been  many  happy  features  of  the  work.  The  gratitude 
of  patients  restored  in  health  and  able  to  take  up  again  their  place 
at  home  is  sometimes  very  touching.  Some  days  ago  a  mother  brought 
her  only  child  for  operation.  One  of  the  leg  bones,  black  and  stink- 
ing, was  protruding  through  the  flesh.  They  had  waited  one  year  for 
nature  to  effect  a  cure.  The  little  one  is  all  right  now  and  they  go 
home  to-morrow. 

The  following  statistics  are  from  the  last  Annual  Report,  as  sub- 
mitted to  the  Government  of  Bombay : 

Dispensary,  new  patients    6,655 

Dispensary,  returning  patients   3,374 

Total   10,029 

Visits  to  patients  in  their    homes    in    Kodoli 229 

Visits  to  patients  in    outside    towns 13 

242 

Hospital  in-patients  213 

10,484 
Total   surgical   operations   in    1907 478 

In  the  ten  years  of  work,  since  the  dispensary  was  opened  in  1898, 
the  attendance  has  been  82,330,  and  there  have  been  2,154  operations. 


SANGLI  STATION. 

EVANGELISTIC. — The  pastor  reports  additions  to  the 
church  during  the  year  as  follows:  On  profession  of  faith, 
27 ;  by  certificate,  3.  During  the  year  the  church  roll  has  been 
revised  and  the  names  of  all  non-residents  dropped,  with  the 
result  that  in  spite  of  the  new  members  received,  the  total  num- 
ber on  the  church  roll  is  less  than  last  year. 

An  Interesting  Case. — In  our  last  year's  report  we  referred  to  the  casi* 
of  a  member  of  the  Church,  a  schoolmaster,  who  had  been  beaten  by  a 
village  officer  and  then  accused  of  resisting  the  police.  Unfortunately 
the  case  went  against  him,  and  he  had  to  suffer  four  months'  imprison- 
ment and  a  fine.  His  brother  at  the  same  time  being  sentenced  to  two 
months'  imprisonment  and  a  fine.  The  members  of  the  church  showed 
their  confidence  in  his  innocence  by  electing  him  an  elder  while  the  trial 
was  in  progress.  As  soon  as  he  was  released  he  took  up  his  work  again 
with  renewed  energy,  and  it  is  not  too  much  to  say  that  the  growth  of 
the  church  this  year  has  been  due  more  to  his  efforts  than  to  those  of 
any  one  person. 

House-to-house  visitation  has  been  carried  on  all  the  year  among 
both  Christian  and  Hindu  women.  The  Christian  women  now  number 
twenty-six,  and  there  has  been  an  effort  to  visit  them  in  their  homes 
each  month.  The  new  women  in  the  Mangwada  recently  received  into 
the  church  have,  however,  been  visited  almost  daily,  and  every  effort 
has  been  made,  by  the  reading  of  the  Word  and  prayer  in  these  visits, 
to  lead  them  on  into  a  progressive  Christian  life. 

Encouraging  Incidents, — On  one  occasion,  when  visiting  one  of  the 
younger  women  who  had  not  seemed  to  understand  as  much  as  the 


WESTERN  INDIA— SANGLI.  227 

others,  in  explaining  the  benefits  of  faith  in  Christ,  the  missionary  was 
surprised  and  cheered  when  her  listener  suddenly  leaned  forward,  and 
with  clasped  hands  and  shining  face  said,  "I  do  beheve  in  Jesus,  I  do 
believe."  Often,  if  prayer  or  reading  is  omitted  from  the  visit,  it  is 
asked  for  before  the  missionary  leaves. 

In  connection  with  this  work,  one  other  little  incident  seems  worth 
mentioning.  Waiting  one  day  at  the  railway  station  for  the  train, 
the  missionary  was  accosted  by  a  lad  in  the  dress  of  a  station  peon, 
who  asked  for  a  book  to  read,  which  led  to  the  following  conversa- 
tion : 

"What  sort  of  a  book  do  you  want?  I  can  only  give  you  a  book 
about  God." 

"That  will  do  very  well." 

"Have  you  heard  about  Christ?" 

"Yes." 

"Who  is  He?" 

"He  is  the  Son  of  God." 

Surprised  at  the  ready  promptness  of  this  last  reply,  the  missionary 

"Who  told  you  that?" 
"You  did." 

As  well  as  the  missionary  could  ascertain,  months  before  he  had, 
in  some  outdoor  audience,  heard  this  truth  and  had  never  forgotten  it. 

EDXJCATIO'NAL.— Industrial  School— The  work  of  the 
industrial  school  has  gone  on  without  interruption.  The  gen- 
eral health  of  the  school  has  been  good.  The  routine  of  the 
day  is  described  as  follows : 

A  typical  boy  gets  off  the  floor  where  he  has  been  sleeping  at 
6  A.  M.,  or  as  much  later  as  he  dares.  At  6.30  he  sits  down  to  break- 
fast. At  7.15  the  chapel  bell  rings  and  he  hastens  to  chapel,  for  the 
monitors  "will  get  you,  if  you  don't  watch  out."  At  7.30  work  begins, 
half  the  school  at  their  books  and  half  in  the  workshop.  At  1 1.30 
books  and  tools  are  dropped  and  an  hour  and  a  half  are  given  to 
lunch  and  rest.  School  opens  again  at  l  and  the  workshop  at  2,  the 
boys  who  worked  in  the  morning  studying  in  the  afternoon  and  vice 
versa.  At  5  the  boy  is  free  for  play  until  6.45,  when  dinner  is  ready. 
At  7.30  comes  study  hour — 7.30  to  8.30  for  the  smaller  boys,  and 
7.30  to  9.00  for  the  larger  ones — and  then  to  bed.  Saturday  morning 
is  taken  up  with  reviews ;  Saturday  afternoon  with  washing  of  clothes 
and  play,  and  on  Saturday  night  each  class  in  turn  gives  an  exhibi- 
tion, in  which  recitations,  essays,  dialogues  and  songs  make  a  much 
enjoyed  hour.  Sunday,  with  its  Sunday-school,  Christian  Endeavor 
meetings  and  church  services,  interspersed  with  time  for  rest  and 
reading,  and  sometimes  an  hour  of  singing,  completes  the  cycle  of 
the  week. 

In  addition  to  his  school  work,  each  boy  has  from  two  to  four 
hours'  work  in  some  trade.  A  few  of  the  boys  give  their  whole  time 
to  work.  Classifying  the  trades  in  the  order  of  their  success  in  fitting 
boys  to  earn  their  own  living,  the  stone  cutting  class  and  the  sewing 
class  will  compete  for  the  first  place.  Carpentering  comes  next,  and 
blacksmithing  and  metal  hammering  bring  up  the  rear.  In  addition, 
we  have  made  a  successful  beginning  in  the  training  of  washermen. 
The  boys  of  the  sewing  class  made,  during  the  last  three  months,  two 
suits  of  clothing  for  each  scholar  in  the  school.  They  are  now  making 
garments  for  Europeans  and  are  taking  much  pride  in  doing  so.  The 
shop  has  not  turned  out  so  much  work  as  last  year,  for  the  reason 
that  it  has  turned  out  workmen.    Last  year  we  had  a  number  of  boys 


228  WESTERN  INDIA— MIRAJ. 

who  had  completed  their  lessons  and  were  perfecting  themselves  by 
doing  miscellaneous  work.  This  year  nearly  all  of  our  boys  have  been 
engaged  with  their  lessons.  In  addition,  opportunities  for  the  car- 
penters to  work  in  Sangli  town  have  come  this  year  as  never  before, 
and  we  have  been  glad  to  send  out  the  best  trained  boys  to  get  a  little 
practical  experience  along  with  other  carpenters,  while  they  continue 
to  live  in  the  school. 

At  the  close  of  the  year  the  number  of  boys  in  the  school  was 
84,  as  follows:  Carpentry,  35;  masonry,  19;  sewing,  18;  metal  ham- 
mering, 3 ;  blacksmithing,  2 ;  washing,  3 ;  unclassified,  4. 

Station  School. — The  Station  School  was  inspected  by  the 
Government  School  Inspector  in  January  and  the  work  done 
by  the  boys  was  satisfactory  to  him  except  their  writing. 
He  also  thought  that  they  should  have  more  practice  in  mental 
arithmetic.  The  first  of  February  we  had  our  examinations  in 
the  school  and  six  boys  passed  into  the  Industrial  School. 

The  average  number  of  boys  in  the  school  was  thirty-four. 

Each  Sunday,  just  after  Sunday-school,  the  Junior  Endeavor  Soci- 
ety met  on  the  veranda  of  Bungalow  No.  i.  The  little  boys  took  part 
well  and  the  meetings  never  lagged.  When  the  boys  were  transferred 
to  the  Brownie  Orphanage,  Kodoli,  they  had  Rs.  4-1-10  in  the  treasury 
of  the  society.  As  all  the  members  went,  the  money  was  also  sent  to 
Kodoli,  to  be  used  for  a  society  there. 

The  day-school  in  the  Mangwada  (the  section  of  the  town  where 
the  Mangs,  a  low  caste,  live)  has  been  kept  up  with  a  regular  attend- 
ance of  twelve.  This  comprises  all  the  children  of  school  age  in  the 
wada,  with  four  or  five  exceptions.  The  school  is  steadily  gaining 
ground  and  influence.  A  year  ago  it  was  hard  work  to  get  the  chil- 
dren to  attend.  Now  it  is  a  common  occurrence  for  parents  to  punish 
their  children  for  not  going  to  school.  The  missionary,  who  at  one 
time  almost  feared  to  punish  a  child  lest  it  should  break  up  the  school, 
now  even  dares  to  expel  a  pupil  for  bad  behavior. 

MIRAJ  STATION. 

The  branches  of  work  which  have  been  carried  on  during 
the  past  year  are  the  same  as  in  the  previous  year.  Along  most 
lines  there  has  been  more  successful  work  done  and  the  mem.- 
bers  of  the  Station  write  in  gratitude  to  God  for  the  measure  of 
good  health  that  He  has  given  them  and  for  the  joy  they  have 
experienced  in  His  service.  Dr.  Wanless,  Mr.  and  Mrs. 
Richardson  and  Miss  Thompson  have  been  in  the  work 
throughout  the  year ;  Miss  Patterson  from  the  beginning  of 
the  year  until  she  went  on  furlough  in  April,  and  Mrs.  Wan- 
less  since  the  time  of  her  marriage  with  Dr.  Wanless  in  De- 
cember, 1907. 

The  Medical  School,  Dispensary  and  Hospital. — Dr.  Wan- 
less, as  formerly,  has  been  in  charge,  assisted  by  Mrs.  Wan- 
less. The  church  (until  the  coming  of  the  pastor),  the  schools, 
Leper  Asylum  and  general  evangelistic  work  have  been  in 
charge  of  Mr.  Richardson,  assisted  by  Mrs.  Richardson,  who 


WESTERN  INDIA— MIRAJ.  229 

has  also  had  charge  of  two  schools  and  the  training  of  Chris- 
tian women.  The  work  of  house-to-house  visiting,  in  the  town, 
with  the  Bible  woman  and  the  teaching  in  the  villages  around, 
was  conducted  by  Miss  Thompson  from  the  beginning  of  the 
year  until  she  took  up  Miss  Patterson's  work  in  the  hospital. 
Miss  Patterson,  until  she  went  on  furlough,  had  the  charge  of 
the  nursing  work  and  the  training  of  nurses.  The  work  of  the 
church  may  be  seen  from  extracts  from  the  pastor's  report. 
He  says: 

The  church  is  a  cosmopolitan  one — most  of  the  members  coming 
from  different  parts  of  this  great  countrj',  and  from  different  Mis- 
sions, with  dift'erent  ideas  and  practices  and  speaking  different  lan- 
guages. Though  they  are  of  such  different  places  and  circumstances, 
they  are  in  this  church  of  one  mind  and  spirit.  The  total  number 
of  communicants  is  fifty-eight,  and  the  whole  baptized  community, 
ninety-three.  During  the  year  six  children  were  baptized,  and  there 
are  fifty-four  non-Christians  under  instruction.  The  spiritual  condi- 
tion of  the  congregation  seems  to  be  satisfactory, '  Sunday-schools, 
preaching  services  and  prayer  meetings  being  well  attended,  and  the 
church  members  taking  great  interest  in  the  Christian  work,  trying  in 
their  daily  duties  to  do  something  for  their  Master.  During  the  year 
the  church  has  contributed  Rs.  292  for  the  church,  Presbyterial  and 
Home  Mission  expenses,  and  is  thinking  of  starting  a  fund  for  a  new 
church  building.  In  a  word,  the  church  is  growing  in  grace  and  is 
trying  to  spread  the  knowledge  of  the  Lord  Jesus  Christ.  The  church 
has  had  its  own  pastor  since  last  December  and  has  paid  the  whole  of 
his  salarjf. 

GENERAL  EVANGELISTIC  WORK.— This  work  has 
been  carried  on  more  systematically  than  ever  before,  so  that 
there  is  scarcely  a  quarter  in  the  town  where  the  Gospel  has 
not  been  preached,  Khandoba  and  Laxmibai  being  most  faithful 
in  this  work.  In  almost  every  place  where  the  Gospel  is 
preached  opportunity  is  given  to  purchase  Christian  books,  gen- 
erally Gospel  portions.  Twice  a  day  Khandoba  preaches  in 
the  dispensary ;  three  or  four  times  a  week  at  the  railway  sta- 
tion ;  three  times  a  week  at  the  Leper  Asylum ;  twice  a  week 
at  the  bazaar,  besides  talking  with  patients  in  the  hospital  and 
preaching  in  the  different  parts  of  the  town. 

Opposing  Forces. — During  the  last  few  months  the  evangelist  has 
not  always  received  the  best  of  treatment.  In  the  bazaar  and  at  the 
railway  station.  Brahmins  have  displayed  a  very  bitter  spirit,  inter- 
rupting the  preaching  and  preventing  the  sale  of  Scriptures.  Some- 
times they  have  bought  Bible  portions  and  then,  tearing  them  in 
pieces,  have  burned  them  before  the  preacher,  saying,  "We  will  soon 
burn  you  as  we  burn  your  books."  This  opposition  has  been  met 
with  in  several  quarters.  One  Sunday,  Mr.  Richardson,  in  company 
with  Mr.  Simpson,  was  preaching  to  a  crowd  at  Chinchli,  when  two 
Brahmins  joined  the  crowd  and  began  in  a  most  excited  way  to  address 
the  people.  They  got  louder  as  they  went  on,  and  perspiration  rolled 
down  their  faces.  The  missionary  stood  coolly  watching  them  (al- 
though having  difficulty  to  keep  from  smiling),  both  Brahmins,  shout- 


230  WESTERN  INDIA— MIRAJ. 

ing  at  the  same  time  in  their  eagerness  to  be  heard,  drowned  out  each 
other's  voice.  In  their  excitement  and  anxiety  to  accomplish  their 
purpose,  they  seemed  to  lose  their  common  sense.  When  they  were 
tired  Mr.  Richardson  quietly  asked  them  if  they  had  finished,  and  if 
they  had  any  question  to  ask,  and  then  began  again  to  speak  to  the 
people.  After  awhile  the  same  Brahmins  came  back  with  others  and 
began  to  interrupt,  shouting  and  doing  their  best  (or  worst)  to  excite 
the  people,  who  began  to  press  in  on  the  missionaries.  At  this  moment 
a  burly  Mahratta  (drunk  as  the  proverbial  lord)  and  waving  a  big 
stick,  stood  in  front  of  the  missionaries  and  told  Mr.  Richardson  to 
speaic  to  the  people,  that  he  would  protect  him  and  would  not  allow 
a  man  to  touch  him.  Afterwards,  when  the  missionaries  were  ready 
to  leave,  he  walked  before  them  to  protect  them  from  any  assault. 

The  Y.  M.  C.  A.  has  conducted  its  weekly  meetings  through- 
out the  school  year  and  reports  that  there  is  marked  spiritual 
progress.  Members  take  part  in  the  preaching  in  the  wards 
of  the  hospital,  in  conducting  a  school  at  the  Leper  Asylum  and 
hi  preaching  in  nearby  villages.  The  Association  has  also  or- 
ganized a  choir  under  the  leadership  of  Mrs.  Wanless  for  the 
Sabbath  services  in  the  church. 

MEDICAL.— 7/i^  Hospital.— There  is  little  that  is  new  to 
report  in  the  work  of  the  Miraj  Hospital  unless  it  be  the  in- 
crease in  the  multitudes  of  the  lame,  the  halt  and  the  blind  who 
from  increasingly  remote  villages  seek  relief  in  the  hospital  and 
dispensary. 

Since  Miss  Patterson  left  for  furlough  Miss  Thompson  has 
rendered  excellent  service  in  the  management  of  the  nurses  and 
general  supervision  of  the  Nursing  Superintendent's  Depart- 
ment. The  Medical  Staff  remains  unchanged.  Dr.  Powar, 
our  senior  Indian  medical  assistant,  passed  his  examination  in 
the  College  of  Physicians  and  Surgeons  at  Calcutta.  Two  new- 
nurses  have  been  added  to  the  nursing  staff  during  the  year, 
making  a  total  of  nine  Indian  nurses,  all  but  one  of  whom  are 
still  undergraduates.  There  has  been  visible  evidence  of  in- 
creasing efficiency  on  the  part  of  all  the  workers  connected  with 
the  hospital.  The  entire  Indian  staff  of  medical  assistants  and 
nurses  has  been  trained  in  the  institution  and  all  are  Chris- 
tians. A  day's  program  will  perhaps  give  the  best  idea  of  the 
work  done  in  the  hospital. 

A  rising  bell  rings  at  6.30  A.  M. ;  a  get-ready  bell  at  7,  and  a  call 
to  prayer  at  7.10.  The  medical  staff  and  students  meet  in  the  Y.  M. 
C.  A.  hall  for  twenty  minutes'  service  of  exhortation  and  prayer.  A 
scheduled  passage  of  Scripture  is  read,  and  a  brief  exhortation  given 
in  turn  by  one  of  the  medical  staff  or  students.  A  text  for  the  day 
is  read,  with  comment  thereon.  Special  requests  for  prayer  are  pre- 
sented and  use  is  made  of  two  prayer  cycles,  including  all  the  medical 
Missions  in  India  and  all  the  departments  of  work  in  our  own_  Mis- 
sion. The  nurses,  under  the  Nursing  Superintendent,  have  a  similar 
service.  At  7.30  to  8  there  is  a  Bible  class  for  the  medical  students, 
conducted  in  turn  by  Mr.   Richardson  and  the  pastor  of  the  church. 


WESTERN  INDIA— MIRAJ.  231 

At  7.30  also  Dr.  Wanless  begins  his  hospital  rounds,  the  nurses  are 
on  duty,  the  dressing  of  cases  begins.  The  taking  of  temperatures 
is  begun  by  special  nurses  and  students  at  7  A.  M.,  and  is  completed 
before  the  physician  begins  his  rounds.  By  9  A.  M.  the  patients  have 
all  been  visited  and  prescribed  for;  a  compounder  copies  his  direc- 
tions, the  nurses  attend  to  theirs,  the  ward  assistant  looks  to  the 
carrying  out  of  the  directions  given,  and  takes  personal  charge  of 
aseptic  dressings,  and  the  doctor  spends  an  hour  with  his  medical  class. 
The  first  assistant,  having  taught  the  class  from  8  to  9,  attends  the 
outdoor  dispensary  patients,  a  service  having  been  conducted  by  the 
Station  evangelist  while  the  patients  are  waiting  for  the  doctor.  By 
10.30  the  morning's  w^ork  in  the  hospital  is  usually  completed,  and 
by  II  the  outdoor  dispensary  is  finished.  Operations  begin  by  12 
o'clock.  Mondays,  Wednesdays  and  Fridays  are  devoted  to  ophthalmic 
operations  and  minor  surgery,  and  from  six  to  thirty  (the  average 
about  ten)  eye  operations  are  performed  on  each  of  these  days.  On 
Tuesdays,  Thursdays  and  Saturdays  the  operative  work  consists  of 
general  surgery,  there  being  usually  from  four  to  ten  operations, 
chiefly  major,  performed  daily,  and  include  in  the  course  of  a  year 
operations  in  practically  every  department  of  surgery.  On  these  three 
general  operating  days  the  staff  is  usually  engaged  in  the  operating  thea- 
tre from  three  to  five  hours.  At  3  P.  M.  one  of  the  operating  staff  is 
released  for  afternoon  dispensary  work.  On  the  ophthalmic  operating 
days  the  physician  himself,  being  free  in  the  afternoon,  conducts  the 
dispensary  from  3  to  5,  and  this  afternoon  clinic  is  also  preceded  by 
preaching  service.  Books  and  Scripture  portions  are  offered  for  sale, 
and  tracts  are  distributed  by  the  Station  evangelist.  While  all  this  is 
going  on,  a  staff  of  two  trained  compounders  and  three  student  com- 
pounders are  preparing  medicines  for  hospital  and  outdoor  patients, 
or  lotions  and  preparations  for  hospital  use.  The  Nursing  Super- 
intendent directs  the  preparation  of  dressings  by  the  nurses,  and  the 
ward  ayhas  attends  to  the  wards,  ward  nursing,  hospital  clothing,  the 
administration  of  medicines  by  nurses,  and  keeps  an  eye  on  many  other 
things  too  numerous  for  individual  mention.  A  special  diet  nurse  pre- 
pares diets  for  special  cases.  One  of  the  medical  assistants  gives  his 
morning  to  laboratory  work.  In  the  afternoon  students  in  the  medical 
class  assist  in  operations,  and  perform  other  hospital  duties  assigned 
them.  As  the  daylight  fades  a  Gospel  talk  is  given  in  the  hospital 
wards,  by  a  nurse  in  the  women's  wards  and  by  a  student  or  one  of 
the  medical  assistants  in  the  men's  wards.  Special  mention  should  be 
made  of  the  two  night  nurses,  a  senior  and  a  junior,  who  have  the 
entire  care  of  the  wards  and  the  serious  responsibility  of  nursing 
most  serious  cases.  Without  their  faithful  service  in  the  hospital, 
mortality  would  doubtless  be  higher.  Sunday  is  a  day  of  comparative 
rest,  only  necessary  duties  being  performed.  A  Sabbath-school  for 
patients,  nurses  and  medical  students  is  conducted,  under  the  superin- 
tendency  of  the  physician-in-charge,  who  himself  takes  the  Bible  class 
for  English-speaking  pupils,  and  addresses  all  in  Marathi  at  the  close 
of  their  lesson.  International  Lessons  are  used,  and  are  taught  by 
the  medical  staff,  senior  nurses  and  Bible  women. 

An  Illustrious  Patient. — The  most  illustrious  of  our  patients  this 
year  was  His  Highness  the  Maharajah  of  Kolhapur,  who  was  brought 
to  the  hospital  wounded  by  a  spear  while  hunting  wild  boar.  He  came 
accompanied  by  some  thirty  of  his  followers,  all  of  whom  were  ac- 
commodated over  night.  Three  young  princes  were  entertained  at  the 
doctor's  table  by  the  Madam  Sahib,  while  the  doctor  and  his  assist- 
ants chloroformed  His  Highness  and  sewed  up  his  wound.  The  Maharajah 
and  staff  left  next  morning  for  Kolhapur,  taking  the  doctor  with  him 
to  dress  his  wound.  Several  visits  were  subsequently  made  to  Kolha- 
pur, and  later  the  IMaharajah  himself  came  to  Miraj   for  the  dressing 


232  WESTERN  INDIA— MIRAJ. 

of  his  wound,  until  it  had  entirely  healed,  which  it  did  to  His  High- 
ness' great  satisfaction.  The  incident  has  served  greatly  to  strengthen 
the  existing  friendship  between  His  Highness  and  the  Mission,  and  on 
his  part  to  esteem  and  appreciate  more  highly  the  work  of  the  Mis- 
sion. Among  other  appreciative  remarks  which  His  Highness  was 
pleased  to  make  was,  "I  once  had  doubts  about  the  work  of  the  Mis- 
sion, but  I  have  none  now.  Is  there  anything  I  can  do  for  the  Mission?" 
On  a  Sunday,  while  at  Miraj,  His  Highness  asked  for  Christian  books, 
and  in  other  ways  manifested  an  interest  in  the  spiritual  as  well  as 
the  physical  work  being  done  by  the  Mission.  We  cannot  but  be 
fhankful  for  the  incident  which  providentially  has  served  to  secure  the 
favor  of  those  in  authority. 

Hospital  Statistics. — The  Medical  School  highly  appreciated  the  sev- 
eral weeks  of  medical  instruction  given  by  Dr.  Goheen  in  the  school 
during  the  month  of  December. 

Indoor  patients    I-3I9 

Surgical    operations    1,9^3 

Outdoor    patients    24,220 

Expenses    Rs.  12,708 

Receipts   , Rs.  9,994 

The  Medical  School, — The  present  class  is  the  largest  to  date,  six- 
teen in  the  medical  and  three  in  the  compounding  class.  AH  in  all, 
they  are  a  promising  company  of  young  men.  Medical  subjects  are 
taught  by  the  principal.  Dr.  W.  J.  Wanless,  and  the  senior  medical  as- 
sistant. Dr.  J.  S.  Powar.  The  religious  subjects  are  taught  by  the 
Rev.  Mr.  Richardson  and  the  church  pastor.  The  medical  curriculum 
approved  by  the  physicians  of  the  Mission  is  followed  as  closely  as  the 
teaching  staff,  which  is  inadequately  small,  permits.  Effort  is  made 
to  afford  a  maximum  of  practical  training  in  laboratory,  hospital 
wards,  operating  room  and  dispensary.  The  religious  training  consists 
of  a  regular  course  in  vital  truths. 

The  medical  work  has  also  been  carried  on  through  the  dis- 
pensaries at  Vila  and  Paulus.  At  the  former  there  has  been  an 
increasing-  attendance.  At  the  latter  the  work  has  not  been  so 
encouraging.  The  place  is  not  desirable  as  a  centre  for  medical 
work.  Ashta,  a  town  of  about  12,000  inhabitants,  in  an  adjoin- 
ing Taluka  (country),  where  for  years  the  missionaries  have 
been  petitioned  by  the  people  to  open  medical  work,  will  prob- 
ably take  its  place. 

EDUCATION. — The  number  receiving  Christian  educa- 
tion in  the  Miraj  field  is  larger  than  in  any  previous  year, 
a  total  of  210.  Besides  the  three  boys'  schools,  there  is  the 
Christian  girls'  school  (which  has  more  boys  than  girls  and 
more  non-Christians  than  Christians,  the  Christian  girls,  as 
soon  as  they  are  old  enough,  going  to  the  Christian  girls' 
boarding  school  at  Kolhapur).  There  are  also  two  night 
schools,  one  with  a  regular  attendance  of  thirty  and  the  other 
of  fourteen,  a  reading  school  for  women,  the  medical  school, 
several  classes  at  the  Leper  Asylum  and  the  women  taking 
the  Bible  women's  courses. 

From  the  several  Sabbath-schools  a  goodly  number  took  the 


WESTERN  INDIA— VENGURLE.  233 

All  India  Sabbath-school  Scripture  examination  and  passed, 
and  from  among  the  Christian  women  six  took  the  Mission's 
examination  in  the  Bible  women's  courses,  two  in  the  first 
year,  three  in  the  second  year  and  one  in  the  fourth  year's  work. 
All  obtained  grades  of  over  90,  two  receiving  97. 

THE  LEPER  ASYLUM.— 

The  past  year  at  the  Leper  Asylum  has  seen  a  marked  increase  in 
the  number  of  inmates.  At  the  beginning  of  the  year  the  roll  showed 
twenty  men  and  eleven  women  in  attendance ;  the  enrollment  now  is 
thirty-seven  men  and  seventeen  women,  a  total  of  fifty-four.  The  year 
has  been  one  full  of  good  things:  l.  The  dedication  of  the  new  chapel, 
2d  of  January,  1908.  2.  Completion  of  the  large  new  building  for 
women,  thereby  making  possible  the  giving  more  room  to  the  inmates 
generally  and  the  housing  the  women  in  more  comfortable  quarters, 
more  secluded  from  the  men.  3.  The  cure  of  one  of  the  inmates,  Abba 
Kambale,  who  was  first  in  Vengurle  Orphanage,  afterwards  at  the 
Sangli  School,  then,  while  serving  as  a  hamal  (house-servant)  in  a 
missionary's  home  at  Miraj,  he  was  discovered  to  be  a  leper.  He  has 
been  in  the  asylum  about  two  years,  gradually  improving  in  general 
health,  and  being  examined  about  three  months  ago,  he  was  declared 
to  be  free  from  leprosy  and  is  now  employed  as  a  pati-walla  at  the 
hospital.  4.  The  success  of  seven  inmates  who  took  the  All  India 
Sunday-school  Scripture  Examination,  all  but  one  obtaining  a  grade 
of  over  80  per  cent.  5.  The  large  number  of  visits  the  inmates  have 
enjoyed  from  missionaries  and  other  friends  interested  in  their  welfare. 
Daily  at  noon  there  is  a  prayer  service  with  the  study  of  the  Old  Testa- 
ment ;  four  afternoons  a  week  a  Gospel  service,  and  on  Sabbath  Sun- 
day-school. 

VENGURLE  STATION. 

EVANGELISTIC. — There  have  been  a  few  changes  in  the 
membership  of  the  Church.  The  sacrament  of  the  Lord's  Sup- 
per has  been  administered  but  twice  during  the  year — once  in 
December,  when  Mr.  Edgar  Wilson  v/as  visiting  the  Station, 
and  once  in  April,  when  Pastor  Shivramji  accepted  the  church's 
invitation  to  come  from  Kolhapur  to  administer  the  sacraments 
of  communion  and  baptism. 

The  Sunday-schools  continue  to  be  five  in  number.  In  each 
of  our  school  buildings,  a  Sunday-school  is  held  at  7  o'clock 
on  Sunday  morning,  and  at  8.30  the  church  Sunday-school 
meets  at  the  bungalow.  The  average  attendance  at  each  of  the 
Sunday-schools  has  been  as  follows :

of  the  Session,  bazaar  preacher,  clerk  of  the  dispensary,  and 
the  most  frequent  speaker  at  the  dispensary  services,  is  per- 
haps best  described  by  a  translation  of  his  own  report  for  the 
year.    It  reads : 

The  work  in  Vengurle  is  growing.  There  are  four  schools  and 
three  of  these  are  going  on  well,  and  in  each  school,  Sunday-school  is 
held  each  Sunday  morning.  The  work  of  the  dispensary  is  growing, 
and  so  many  people  are  coming  that  Dr.  Goheen  has  to  give  a  great 
deal  of  his  time  there.  The  people  come  from  many  of  the  surround- 
ing villages,  and  the  Gospel  is  preached  regularly  in  the  dispensary. 
The  people  listen  well  and  are  beginning  to  discuss  amongst  them- 
selves the  life  and  works  of  Jesus  Christ. 

Miss  Ferguson  and  Mrs.  Goheen  have  given  one  afternoon 
in  the  week  to  the  Christian  women.  At  the  meetings,  after  a 
simple  little  Bible  talk,  much  time  is  spent  in  prayer.  It  has 
been  a  great  comfort  to  the  workers  this  year  to  see  how  some 
of  the  women  have  been  learning  to  pray,  and  how  earnestly 
they  pray  for  the  work  of  the  Station.  The  opening  of  the 
hospital,  the  first  case,  the  fear  of  the  people  that  the  hospital 
was  haunted,  all  these  have  been  earnestly  prayed  over,  and  as 
God  has  heard  and  answered,  heartfelt  praise  has  been  given 
for  each  answer. 

A  Prayer  from  the  Heart. — One  dear  old  woman,  who  a  little  more 
than  two  j'ears  ago  had  never  seen  a  white  face,  made  the  following 
touching  little  prayer  one  afternoon :  "Oh,  dear  Lord,  we  do  thank  Thee 
that  Thou  hast  taken  away  the  fear  of  the  people,  and  that  they  are 
coming  to  the  hospital,  where  they  can  hear  of  Jesus.  But,  oh  God.  I 
never  knew  that  so  much  money  would  be  needed  for  the  work  of  the 
hospital.  Will  you  please  make  the  people  in  America  send  money. 
We  here  in  Vengurle  have  been  giving  onV  our  tenth,  but  now,  oh 
Lord,  if  you  wish  me  to,  I  will  give  one-half.  Amen."  She  now  gives 
all  that  she  can  for  the  work,  and  is  always  the  first  one  to  offer  her 
blanket  to  any  sick  person  who  may  come,  or  for  whom  Dr.  Goheen 
may  have  no  hospital  bedding. 

Owing  to  lack  of  funds,  touring  has  not  been  possible  this  year,  but 
the  visiting  in  the  homes  has  been  carried  on  regularly.  In  some 
homes  the  women  really  care  to  hear  of  the  Saviour,  because,  as  they 
say,  their  many  vows  and  prayers  to  their  own  numerous  gods  have 
given  them  no  peace,  and  they  want  to  hear  of  One  who  we  say  gives 
peace.  Some  say  the  story  "cools  their  hearts."  Others  will  listen, 
but  are  seemingly  indifferent.  The  most  discouraging,  heart-breaking 
visits  are  those  made  to  the  homes  of  the  intelligent  but  usually  bitter 
and  flippant  temple-women.  This  class  is  very  prevalent  in  Vengurle, 
and,  alas,  it  is  a  class  that  steadily  increases  in  numbers,  for  the 
daughters  of  these  temple-women  are  dedicated  from  birth  to  the  same 
life  of  shame  that  their  mothers  have  lived. 

EDUCATIONAL.— The  work  in  the  four  schools  has  on 
the  whole  been  encouraging,  and  it  is  a  great  joy  to  see  the 
marked  improvement  in  Biblical  knowledge  of  the  children 
who  have  attended  school  all  year.  Miss  Ferguson  has  charge 
of  the  school  in  the  fishermen's  quarter,  and  in  the  low  caste 


WESTERN  INDIA— VENGURLE.  'J3a 

and  Maratha  quarters  as  well.     Of  the  school  for  fishermen's 
children  she  writes : 

The  number  of  the  children  on  the  roll  of  this  school  is  forty,  the 
average  attendance  being  thirty.  At  the  beginning  of  the  year  the 
Christian  teacher  left  to  take  up  work  in  Bombay,  and  it  was  some 
months  before  anyone  could  be  found  to  take  his  place.  Then  the 
teacher  who  did  come  was  at  first  not  very  tactful  with  the  pupils,  and 
a  number  of  the  older  ones  left  school.  In  September,  to  our  great 
disappointment,  the  Hindu  master,  who  has  been  in  the  school  since 
it  started,  gave  up  his  position  to  take  up  a  better-paying  one  in  a 
Government  school,  and  again  at  that  time  several  of  the  older  boys 
left  to  go  to  the  other  school.  It  has  been  hard  for  the  Christian 
teacher  to  be  left  with  what  he  terms  the  "refuse"  of  his  second  stand- 
ard, but  he  is  devoting  himself  to  his  work  as  never  before,  so  what 
seemed  a  loss  is  really  proving  a  gain.  Seventy-five  per  cent,  of  the 
pupils  passed  the  Government  examination. 

The  Mahar  school  has  been  carried  on  all  year  as  a  half-day  school 
by  Sakhabai,  Miss  Ferguson's  Bible  woman. 

Of  the  Parabh  or  Maratha  School,  Miss  Ferguson  writes : 

The  number  on  the  roll  is  thirty-eight,  the  average  attendance 
twenty-eight.  Brahmin,  Maratha,  Roman  Catholic  and  Protestant  chil- 
dren attend  the  school.  The  school-room  is  the  best  we  have,  for  it  is 
large,  airy  and  well  lighted — in  fact,  it  is  a  nicely-built  cattle  shed. 
Sometimes  the  bullocks  are  treading  out  grain  at  one  end,  but  for- 
tunately neither  teachers  nor  pupils  seem  to  be  in  the  least  disturbed. 
Seven  and  a  half  per  cent,  of  the  scholars  passed  the  Government  ex- 
amination. This  was  the  best  record  of  any  of  the  schools  in  the 
whole  town. 

The  largest  school,  the  Bhut  School,  of  which  Mrs.  Goheen 
has  charge,  like  the  Parabh  school,  has  all  sorts  and  conditions 
of  pupils.  It  is  named  the  Bhut  school  because  it  is  situated  in 
the  Bhut  or  priests'  quarters  and  a  number  of  the  children  of 
priests  attend  the  school.  The  school  suffered  more  than  the  mis- 
sionaries realized  at  the  time  from  the  bad  influence  of  the  for- 
mer master,  who  each  morning  had  his  scouts  out  to  watch  for 
and  warn  him  of  Mrs.  Goheen's  approach.  But  the  new  master 
is  an  earnest  Christian  and  an  earnest  worker,  and  it  is  hoped 
that  under  his  care  things  will  be  better. 

MEDICAL. — "Growth"  is  the  word  that  best  describes  the 
medical  work  of  the  year.  Early  in  November,  the  medical 
work  was  greatly  stimulated  by  the  gift  of  Mrs.  Mather,  of 
Cleveland,  who  sent  $300  for  the  repair  of  the  old  Cantonment 
Hospital  and  grounds,  the  Government  grant  of  which  was  re- 
ported last  Mission  meeting.  The  Mission's  Property  Com- 
mittee immediately  visited  the  Station  and  inspected  the  site. 
They  favored  only  the  temporary  repair  of  the  old  building, 
because  it  was  feared  that  the  site  was  too  far  from  the  bazaar 
to  be  a  good  one  for  the  hospital.    These  repairs  were  made  and 


236  WESTERN  INDIA— STATISTICS. 

early  in  July  the  first  operation  was  performed  in  a  partially 
finished  room  of  a  much  unfinished  building. 

Removing  of  Obstacles. — The  patient's  father,  believing  the  then 
widespread  report  that  the  building  was  haunted,  refused  to  allow  his 
son  to  stay  in  the  hospital,  and  he  had  to  be  accommodated  in  a  room 
on  the  bungalow  compound.  The  case  was  a  very  serious  one,  and  its 
slow  but  sure  recovery  seemed  to  those  who  watched  its  progress  a 
definite  answer  to  the  prayers  of  many  in  the  church  for  the  lad,  and 
that  cure  has  been  taken  to  be  the  first  sign  of  God's  favor  and  blessing 
upon  the  nev/  work.  It  was  a  happy  moment  when  on  leaving  the  old 
father  offered  a  prayer  of  gratitude  to  the  Lord  Jesus.  The  progress 
of  the  second  case,  although  of  a  different  nature,  was  equally  encour- 
aging. This  lad,  a  Brahmin  of  the  highest  caste,  was  after  the  opera- 
tion too  weak  to  be  removed  from  the  hospital,  and  in  this  way  God 
again  answered  prayer,  and  removed  the  very  general  superstition  that 
the  house  was  haunted.  That  boy  to-day  is  the  best  possible  adver- 
tisement for  the  hospital,  for  he  who  by  reason  of  his  disease  had  not 
stood  on  his  feet  for  three  years  is  to-day,  to  the  great  joy  and  wonder 
of  his  parents,  hopping  about  everywhere  on  crutches. 

Writing  on  the  15th  of  October,  Dr.  Goheen  says: 

Forty  patients  have  been  admitted.  At  present  every  bed  is  full, 
and  several  applications  for  admission  have  had  to  be  refused. 

The  surgical  apparatus  is  very  meagre,  as  only  Rs.  300  could  be 
spared  from  the  funds  for  this  purpose.  But  the  gift  of  a  ten-gallon 
water  sterilizer  from  the  Mission's  faithful  friend,  Mr.  Emerson,  of 
Titusville,  deserves  grateful  mention  here. 

Every  Sunday  evening  at  dusk  a  song-service  with  Bible  talks  and 
prayer  is  held  in  the  wards  of  the  hospital,  and  to  this  all  the  patients 
give  earnest  attention.  One  man  who  was  dismissed  on  a  Saturday 
morning  begged  to  be  allowed  to  stay  until  after  the  service  on  Sunday. 

The  enrollment  of  patients  in  the  dispensary  for  the  year  is  11,440. 
Of  this  number,  6,433  were  men,  2,962  women,  and  2,045  children.

MISSIONS  IN  JAPAN. 

In  ^pite  of  cotitinued  foolish  talk  regarding  the  difficulties 
between  the  United  States  and  Japan  over  the  question  of 
Japanese  emigration,  the  relations  of  the  missionaries  to  the 
[apanese  have  been  uninterruptedly  cordial.  The  idea  that 
the  Japanese  were  filled  with  a  spirit  of  war  was  untrue  and 
absurd.  The  following  words  from  well-known  Japanese,  ut- 
tered within  the  last  few  months,  are  illustrative  of  the  spirit 
and  purposes  of  the  nation : 

"Before  all  other  questions,  the  most  vital  question  should  be  con- 
sidered, namely,  how  to  bring  about  the  amity  of  mternational  rela- 
tions "—Mayor  OzAKi,  quoted  in  the  Jiji  Shimpo. 

"Wonderfully  has  mankind  grown  in  political  instincts  from  being  a 
member  of  a  village  community  to  be  a  voice  in  the  federation  ot  the 
world." — Dr.  Nitobe.  .  r    ,       ru         ^ 

"I  am  sincerely  convinced  that  the  achievements  of  the  C^ague; 
Conference  are  such  as  will  mark  an  epoch  in  the  history  of  the  progress 
of  humanity."— Ambassador  Tsuzuki. 

"An  international  exhibition  and  warlike  preparation  can  neyer  be 
attempted  at  the  same  time  and  same  place;  therefore,  the  invitation 
of  the  Japanese  Government  to  all  nations  to  come  together  in  the 
coming.  World's  Fair  is  a  sure  sign  of  Japan's  universal  desire  tor 
peace."— Viscount  Kaneko. 

"The  Christian  Movement  in  Japan,"  the  annual  report  of 
the  advance  of  Christian  influence  in  the  Empire,  puts  the  mat- 
ter succinctly,  as  follows: 

Japan  being  at  peace,  and  the  Hague  Conference  having  been  kept 
before  the  world  during  the  year,  the  thoughts  of  the  people  have 
turned  naturally  to  the  subject  of  peace.  Conducive  to  this  end  has 
been  the  successful  conclusion  of  the  Franco- Japanese  and  the  Russo- 
Japanese  Conventions,  and  the  Commercial  Treaty  with  Russia,  to- 
gether with  the  reassuring  visit  of  Secretary  Taft  and  such  utterances 
from  Ambassador  O'Brien  as/There  is  room  enough  on  the  Pacific  for 
all  of  the  ships  of  the  world."  ,       tt  r-     t 

Among  the  special  delegates  of  Japan  to  the  Hague  Conference 
was  one  member  of  the  Japan  Peace  Society,  who  has  taken  a  genuine 
interest  in  the  work  of  the  society.  Besides  sending  a  cable  to  the 
conference  and  forwarding  the  petitions  from  the  various  Hague  Day 
Meetings,  the  Society,  at  the  request  of  the  author,  translated  into 
English  and  printed  Count  Itagaki's  "Open  Letter  to  the  President  of 
the  Hague  Conference"  and  sent  to  representatives  of  the  peace  societies 
at  the  Hague  a  sufficient  number  of  copies  for  each  delegate.  The  above 
letter  received  the  hearty  approval  of  Mr.  Tsuzuki,  Ambassador  to  the 
Hague  Conference.  .  .  , 

the  beginning  of  the  peace  movement  in  Japan,  and  its  growtn 
to  the  present  time,  have  depended  largely  upon  personal  interviews. 


240  JAPAN. 

The  past  year  has  witnessed  much  activity  in  this  line.  Members  of  the 
Japan  Peace  Society  have  interviewed,  with  good  resuUs,  university 
professors,  editors,  business  men,  Buddhist  and  Christian  leaders,  con- 
suls, mayors,  judges,  governors  and  members  of  Parliament.  These 
personal  interviews  have  all  witnessed  to  the  fact  that  the  leading 
thinkers  of  Japan  really  love  peace,  and  wish  to  demonstrate  to  the 
world  that  the  nation's  military  career  shall  not  be  allowed  to  over- 
shadow her  victories  in  the  arts  and  industries  of  peace. 

Two  other  paragraphs  from  "The  Christian  Movement"  are 
of  interest  as  showing  the  general  trend  of  thought  in  the 
Empire : 

Baron  Makino,  Minister  of  Education,  in  addressing  the  Prefects 
assembled  in  Tokj'O,  made  the  interesting  statement  that  complete 
success  has  attended  the  important  change  made  last  year  when  the 
compulsory  course  of  instruction  in  primary  schools  was  extended  from 
four  to  six  years.  Out  of  20,000  schools  established  throughout  the 
Empire,  the  new  system  has  been  put  into  effect  in  every  instance  with 
the  exception  of  144.  There  can  be  no  doubt  that  the  people  are  earn- 
estly bent  upon  providing  good  education  for  their  children.  On  the 
other  hand,  the  authorities  are  greatly  embarrassed  by  the  lack  of 
instructors.  This  want  is  especially  felt  in  the  field  of  female  education, 
and  the  Minister  urges  that  no  time  should  be  lost  in  increasing  the 
number  of  normal  schools.  His  Excellency  further  recommends  that 
the  system  of  retiring  allowances  to  teachers  should  be  remodeled  on 
a  more  liberal  scale. 

Mr.  Soyeda  spoke  warmly  about  the  dififercnce  between  education 
in  England  and  in  Japan.  He  asserted  that  the  great  aim  of  English 
education  was  to  produce  men  of  character,  but  he  could  not  discern 
that  any  such  object  was  pursued  by  educators  in  Japan.  He  went  on 
to  say  that  the  habits  of  leading  men  in  Great  Britain  could  not  be  too 
much  admired — the  respect  they  showed  for  religion  and  the  upright 
lives  that  they  led.  The  consequence  was  that  the  prominent  figures 
in  commerce  and  politics  alike  commanded  a  degree  of  public  esteem 
which  they  did  not  at  all  possess  in  Japan,  and  such  an  institution  as 
a  Chamber  of  Commerce  wielded  wide  influence.  One  very  regret- 
table habit  of  the  Japanese  mind  was  the  small  value  placed  upon  time. 
Even  a  pure  business  call  had  to  be  prefaced  by  comments  about  the 
weather  and  extraneous  talk  which  materially  shortened  the  moments 
available  for  transacting  business.  Then  there  was  the  still  more 
objectionable  custom  of  making  tea-house  entertainments  an  occasion 
for  business  consultations.  This  involved  an  immense  loss  of  time  and 
mone}',  to  say  nothing  of  injury  to  health. 

Although  Dr.  H.  Kato,  ex-President  of  the  Imperial  University, 
Tokyo,  has  made  another  violent  attack  on  Christianity  as  hostile  to 
the  best  interests  of  the  State,  another  prominent  educator  and  philos- 
opher does  not  agree  with  him,  as  the  following  clipping  shows  : 

"The  Kirisutokyo  Sekai  (Congregational)  refers  to  a  speech  bear- 
ing on  Christianity  in  Japan  made  by  Dr.  Inouye  Tetsujiro  at  a  large 
meeting  of  Directors  of  Provincial  Middle  Schools  held  in  Tokyo  a 
few  months  ago.  Dr.  Inouye  is  reported  to  have  made  the  following 
remark  on  that  occasion:  'Formerly  Christianity  in  this  country  was 
not  in  agreement  with  the  State,  but  such  is  no  longer  the  case.'  This 
admission  caused  great  surprise  at  the  time  it  was  made  and  has  since 
been  the  subject  of  much  comment.  The  Kirisutokyo  Sekai  asks  what 
difference  there  is  between  the  new  and  the  old  form  of  Christianity, 
and  comes  to  the  conclusion  that  the  Christianity  to  which  in  former 
years  Dr.  Inouye  so  strongly  objected  was  the  Occidental   Christianity 


JAPAN.  241 

which  had  been  propagated  here  unchanged,  whereas  the  Christianity 
of  which  the  learned  Doctor  approves  to-day  is  Japanicized  Christianity. 
Into  the  doctrinal  changes  which  have  taken  place  the  organ  we  are 
quoting  docs  not  go,  but  simply  lays  stress  on  the  significance  of  Dr. 
Inouj'c's  change  of  attitude  toward  Christianity  in  Government  schools. 
It  seems  now  to  be  generally  held,  says  the  Kirisutukyo  Sckai,  that 
Christianity  in  schools  can  do  no  harm  whatever  to  the  Japanese  State. 
This  opens  the  way  for  Christian  work  in  Government  schools." 

The  numerical  progress  made  by  the  Church  has  been  steady 
but  not  unusual.  In  the  Congregational  Churches  there  were 
2,3(?4  adult  baptisms  during  the  year ;  in  the  Baptist  Churches, 
389;  in  the  United  Methodist  Churches,  1,654;  in  the  Church 
of  Christ,  or  Presbyterian  Churches,  2,127,  ^^'^^  in  the  Episcopal 
Churches,  1,024.  The  largest  Protestant  body  is  the  Church 
of  Christ,  with  a  total  membership  of  18,140. 

The  discussion  on  the  subject  of  the  relations  between  the 
Churches  in  Japan  and  the  Foreign  Missions  was  continued 
throughout  the  year.  The  West  Japan  Mission  has  entered  into 
full  co-operative  relations  with  the  Church  of  Christ  in  Japan, 
and  is  thus  far  the  only  one  of  the  six  Church  Missions  hith- 
erto co-operating  with  the  Church  of  Christ  which  has  done 
so  as  yet.  Plans  of  co-operation  have  been  agreed  upon  between 
the  East  Japan  IMission  and  the  Board  to  be  submitted  to  the 
Church  of  Christ,  but  before  they  had  been  so  submitted  a 
letter  was  published  in  the  Fukuin  Shimpo,  the  leading  paper 
of  the  Church  of  Christ,  signed  by  four  of  the  leaders  of  the 
Church  and  proposing  a  plan  of  affiliation,  as  follows : 

IMissions  formerly  known  as  Missions  co-operating  with  the  Church 
of  Christ  in  Japan,  which  are  unable  to  become  co-operating  Missions 
under  the  definition  of  the  Synod,  may  apply  to  the  Synod  for  recogni- 
tion as  affiliated   (or  related)   Missions. 

I.  An  affiliated  Mission  sincerely  accepts  the  Confession  of  Faith, 
Constitution  and  Canons  of  the  Church  of  Christ  in  Japan;  and  trains 
its  converts  accordingly.

of  an  affiliated  Mission  may  apply  to  Presbytery  for  licensure  of  ordina- 
tion. Such  licentiates  and  ministers  shall  be  subject  to  the  discipline 
of  the  Presbytery ;  but  they  shall  not  have  the  privileges  of  either 
full  or  associate  members. 

3.  Dendo-kyokzuai  and  kogisho  of  affiliated  Missions  shall  have  no 
ecclesiastical  connection  whatever  with  the  Church  of  Christ  in  Japan ; 
but  they  shall  be  included  in  the  statistics  of  the  Church  as  belonging 
to  affiliated  Missions. 

4.  Affiliated  Missions  do  not  organize  churches  (kyokzvai) ;  but 
when  their  dendo-kyokzvai  or  kogisho  are  ready  for  organization  as 
churches,  they  shall  apply  to  Presbytery,  and  when  so  organized  shall 
be  churches  of  the  Church  of  Christ  in  Japan. 

This  plan  was  presented  at  the  meeting  of  the  Synod  in  the 
Fall  of  1908,  but  there  was  some  difference  of  view  among  its 
promoters  as  to  its  scope  and  meaning,  and  the  matter  was  with- 
drawn from  consideration  by  the  Synod.    The  idea  of  a  rela- 


242  JAPAN. 

tionship  of  affiliation,  however,  instead  of  co-operation,  has 
been  taken  up  for  fuller  discussion,  and  a  plan  based  on  this 
principle  was  submitted  to  the  Board  by  the  East  Japan  Mis- 
sion as  follows : 

The  Mission  shall  be  known  as  an  affiliated  Mission  and  shall  carry 
on  its  evangelistic  work  under  the  following  arrangement. 

1.  The  Mission  accepts  the  Confession  of  Faith,  Constitution  and 
Canons  of  the  Church  of  Christ  in  Japan;  and  will  expect  dendo- 
kyokwai  and  kogisho  connected  with  it  to  do  so  also. 

2.  Men  desiring  to  engage  in  evangelistic  work  under  the  direction 
of  the  Mission  may  apply  to  Presbytery  for  licensure  or  ordination. 
Such  licentiates  and  ministers  shall  be  subject  to  the  discipline  of  the 
Presbytery.  They  may  also  be  invited  by  the  Presbytery  to  become 
permanent  corresponding  members.  Such  ministers,  however,  as  are 
already  full  or  associate  members  shall  have  the  privileges  of  associate 
members. 

3.  Dendo-kyokwai  and  kogisho  connected  with  the  Mission  shall 
have  no  ecclesiastical  connection  with  the  Church  of  Christ  in  Japan; 
but  they  shall  be  included  in  the  statistics  of  the  Church  as  connected 
with  the_  Mission,  and  shall  report  to  the  Presbytery  annually  for  its 
information  regarding  their  financial  and  spiritual  condition. 

4.  The  Mission  will  not  organize  churches  (kyokzvai) ;  but  when  de)i- 
do-kyokwai  or  kogisho  connected  with  it  are  ready  for  organization  as 
churches  they  shall  apply  to  the  Presbytery,  and  when  so  organized  shall 
be  churches  of  the  Church  of  Christ  in  Japan. 

It  may  be  explained  that  dcndokyokwai  and  kogijo  are  un- 
organized congregations  and  preaching  places. 

With  the  presentation  of  this  plan  to  the  Board,  the  follow- 
ing action  was  taken  by  the  Board  on  the  recommendation  of 
its  Committee  on  Policy  and  Methods : 

In  January,  1908,  the  Board  took  action,  providing  for  a  plan  of 
co-operation  between  the  East  Japan  Mission  and  the  Church  of 
Christ  on  the  basis  of  the  Synod's  definition  of  a  co-operating  Mission. 
The  Mission,  on  the  basis  of  this  action  of  the  Board,  adopted  a  plan 
of  co-operation,  and  was  about  to  submit  it  to  the  Board  of  Missions  of 
the  Church  of  Christ  when  there  appeared  the  suggested  plan  of  affilia- 
tion, which  some  of  the  Japanese  ministers  proposed  to  submit  to  the 
Synod  as  a  possible  alternative  to  the  plan  of  co-operation.  In  view 
of  the  proposal,  the  Mission  asked  the  Board  to  assent  to  its  postpone- 
ment of  the  presentation  of  its  plan  of  co-operation  until  after  the  meet- 
ing of  the  Synod  in  October.  To  this  the  Board  agreed.  At  the 
meeting  of  the  Synod,  however,  the  plan  of  affiliation  was  withdrawn 
and  the  sentiment  of  the  Church  was  expressed  strongly  in  favor  of  the 
policy  of  co-operation,  and  the  time  was  extended  during  which  the 
Missions  might  propose  plans  for  the  consideration  of  the  Synod. 

The  East  Japan  Mission  now  requests  the  Board  to  allow  it  to 
propose  to  the  Church  of  Christ  a  plan  of  affiliation  modeled  upon 
that  which  had  been  proposed  to  the  Synod.  This  the  Committee  and 
the  Council  are  unprepared  to  do.  The  withdrawal  of  the  plan  of  affilia- 
tion by  the  Japanese  and  the  discussions  and  actions  of  the  Synod 
seem  to  us  to  leave  the  matter  just  where  it  was  before  the  plan  of 
affiliation  was  proposed,  and  all  the  considerations  which  led  the  Board 
to  favor  a  policy  of  co-operation  then  appear  to  apply  now,  and  with 
increased  force.'      W?  recommend,  therefore,  that  tlie  Board  advise 


JAPAN.  243 

tlie  Mission  that  it  is  its  judgment  that  the  Mission  should  proceed 
to  carry  out  the  course  previously  agreed  upon  in  the  Mission  action 
of  June,  1908,  and  should  propose  the  plans  of  co-operation  then  adopted 
to  the  proper  Committee  of  the  Church  of  Christ. 

In  advising  this  course,  however,  we  would  recommend  also  that 
the  Mission  be  informed  that  the  Board  is  entirely  willing  that  the 
Mission  should  consider  with  th»  Church  of  Christ  the  plan  of  affilia- 
tion as  proposed,  and  adopt  such  a  plan  in  consultation  with  the  Church, 
provided  that  it  be  found  to  be  wholly  acceptable  to  the  Church. 

The  year  1909  marks  the  fiftieth  anniversary  of  the  estab- 
lishment of  Protestant  Missions  in  Japan,  and  is  to  be  ob- 
served by  a  joint  evangelistic  campaign  carried  on  by  the  Jap- 
anese Churches  and  the  missionary  bodies  jointly,  and  by  a 
jubilee  celebration  in  October.

TOKYO. 

EVANGELISTIC— Dr.  Thompson  reports  the  continuance 
of  his  work  in  Tokyo  and  Tochigi  and  Utsunomiya,  cities  sixty 
miles  to  the  north  of  Tokyo. 

Mei  Sei  preaching  place  was  at  one  time  a  church.  It  was  one  of 
those  wrecked  by  the  mob  four  years  ago.  It  has  had  a  hard  time 
ever  since  in  overcoming  the  difficulties  it  has  had  to  meet.  The  acting 
pastor  is  Rev.  Y.  Ogawa,  our  oldest  native  minister,  now  in  his  seventy- 
seventh  vear  and  failing  in  health.  He  has,  however,  been  able  to  keep 
the  oversight  of  this  flock  during  the  past  year,  has  preached  regularly, 
and  has  received  bv  baptism  some  twenty  new  members. 

Tochigi:  This,"  too,  is  a  populous  place  like  Utsunomiya,  in  the 
same  general  direction  and  about  equally  distant  from  Tokyo  by  rail. 
It  differs  from  the  latter  place  in  one  respect,  viz.,  our  Mission  alone 
maintains  work  there  now.  A  few  church  members  of  almost  every 
denomination,  as  is  the  case  elsewhere  in  Japan,  may  be  found  on 
search  among  the  people. 

Mr.  MacNair's  evangelistic  work  has  been,  as  he  writes,  m  the  three 
country  places,  Matsuo,  Hasunuma  and  Kisarazu,  and,  in  Tokyo,  with 
the  Akasaka,  Shinagawa  and  Koishkawa  dendo  Kyokwai  or  "mission 
churches,"  more  especially  the  latter,  where,  besides  preaching  fre- 
quently, I  meet  a  group  of  students  for  Bible  study. 
244 


EASTERN  JAPAN— TOKYO.  245 

Mr.  MacNair  has  worked  steadily  during  the  year  on  the 
new  Union  Sunday-school  Hymn  I'ook,  which  it  is  hoped  will 
prove  as  great  a  success  as  the  Union  Church  Tlymnal,  which 
has  reached  its  fifth  edition  and  210,000.  In  spite  of  various 
illnesses  Miss  Youngman  has  gone  forward  with  her  work  in 
the  three  Missions  Uyeno,  Kamijima  and  Kamakwa.  At  the 
last  point  several  thousand  have  heard  the  Gospel  during  the 
year. 

EDUCATIONAL. — Meiji  Gakuin,  Academic  Department. 
— Mr.  Reischauer  reports : 

The  number  of  students,  360,  is  as  large  as  present  accommodations 
will  allow  and  the  fact  that  we'  can  select  by  competitive  examinations 
the  best  of  many  applications  insures  us  a  better  class  of  students  than 
we  might  otherwise  have.  Our  graduating  class  of  the  Middle  School 
Department  is  not  quite  as  large  as  last  year,  but  still  we  have  sixty- 
six.  Last  year,  March,  1908,  seventy-one  were  graduated.  In  our  upper 
department  we  have,  however,  a  graduating  class  of  eight,  where  last 
year  we  had  none  and  the  year  before  only  two.  Of  these  eight,  five 
are  baptized  Christians  and  the  other  three  are  essentially  Christians. 
In  the  two  lower  classes  of  the  Koto  department  we  have  eleven  candi- 
dates for  the  ministry.  As  a  plant  of  secular  education  the  future  of 
the  school  is  fairly  bright.  But  to  make  it  more  and  more  a  true  and 
shining  light  is  the  thing  that  lies  most  heavily  on  our  hearts.  There 
are  eighty  Christians  among  the  360  enrolled,  and  in  comparison  with 
most  Mission  boys'  schools  this  is  not  a  bad  showing,  but  surely  the 
percentage  can  and  must  be  raised.  The  chief  difficulty  lies  in  getting 
a  thoroughgoing  Christian  faculty. 

Theological  Department. — Dr.  Imbrie  reports: 

The  Theological  Department  held  its  commencement  in  June.  There 
were  five  graduates,  all  of  whom  arc  now  doing  evangelistic  work  in 
connection  with  either  the  Presbyterian  or  the  Reformed  Mission.  At 
the  beginning  of  the  Autumn  term  seven  new  students  entered  for  the 
regular  and  four  for  the  special  course.  Those  entering  for  the  regular 
course  were  all  graduates  of  the  higher  course  of  the  Academic  De- 
partment. There  are  now  twenty-four  students  in  attendance,  and  nine 
pursuing  the  higher  course  of  the  Academic  Department  with  the  ex- 
pectation of  entering  the  Theological  Department. 

loshi  Gakuin. — During  the  year  there  have  been  in  all 
eighteen  baptized,  and  there  are  now  seventy  baptized  Chris- 
tians out  of  230  girls  in  attendance  in  our  school.  Several  are 
only  waiting  for  their  families'  permission  and  many  others 
have  a  real  faith. 

At  the  commencement  in  March  American  Ambassador  O'Brien  gave 
the  address.  He  spoke  in  a  complimentary  way  to  the  class  upon  its 
ability  in  using  English  and  congratulated  the  country  upon  having 
such  good  facilities  for  giving  a  foreign  education  to  its  youth.  Eight 
girls  received  diplomas  from  the  advanced  department,  while  thirty- 
eight  certificates  were  issued  from  the  lower  English  department,  and 
forty-two  certificates  from  the  lower  Japanese  department.  It  was  an 
imposing  sight  to  see  such  numbers  of  daintily  dressed  young  women 


246  EASTERN  JAPAN— TOKYO. 

receive  the  mark  of  their  school's  approval  from  the  hand  of  their 
honored  principal,  Mrs.  Yajima,  now  seventy-six  years  of  age.  Four  of 
the  graduating  class  settled  soon  at  virork;  three  became  teachers  in 
Mission  schools  and  one  became  a  missionary's  assistant.  The  other 
four  girls  are  with  their  families. 

The  Sunday  work  of  the  older  students  in  twelve  churches  has  con- 
tinued with  the  usual  interest.  In  one  Sunday-school  the  people  ap- 
preciated the  ability  of  their  helper  so  much  that  they  asked  her  to  con- 
duct children's  meetings  for  a  week  at  the  time  of  their  special  revival 
services.  At  the  three  set  feasts  of  the  year,  the  Alumnae  Meeting,  the 
Dosokai  for  all  former  students,  and  the  Christmas  entertainment, 
a  goodly  number  of  former  students  returned  and  a  fine  spirit  of 
loyalty  was  shovv^n.  The  non-Christian  families  of  two  girls  who  had 
died  brought  small  presents  of  money  at  Christmas  time  in  memory  of 
their  daughters'  appreciation,  and  a  graduate  of  this  year  made  a  gift 
of  fifty  yen  in  the  same  way.  These,  with  a  larger  gift  last  year  from 
a  widowed  husband  in  memory  of  his  wife,  start  an  endowment  fund 
for  the  school,  and  show  the  spirit  that  such  a  school  should  provoke. 

Joshi  Gakuin  has  had  an  unusual  privilege  this  year  in  receiving  four 
new  Chinese  students  and  four  new  Korean  students  into  its  dormitories. 
These  girls  want  the  Christian  influence  and  the  education  in  English 
which  the  school  affords  to  prepare  them  for  a  greater  sphere  of  use- 
fulness in  their  ov/n  lands.    They  are  all  womanly  Christian  girls. 

Mrs.  McCauley  reports  of  the  two  primary  schools,  one  in 
Tsukiji  with  an  attendance  of  280,  and  the  other  in  Shiba  with 
an  attendance  of  ninety,  with  ninety-seven  additional  children 
in  the  Kindergarten,  and  also  the  Rescue  Howe  at  Okubo,  as 
follows : 

This  last  year  we  have  twice  had  meetings  for  the  parents  of  Kin- 
dergarten children.  The  last  meeting  we  got  out  a  number  of  the 
fathers  as  well,  and  we  urged  their  having  their  little  ones  remain. 
One  father  got  up  and  said,  "Oh,  for  a  shame,  that  we  should  have  to 
he  urged  to  let  our  little  ones  remain  in  this  clean,  safe,  good  school. 
[  thank  the  great  God  that  I  can  every  day  go  about  my  work  in  peace, 
knowing  that  my  little  girl  is  in  this  school.  We,  every  one,  should 
be  the  suppliants  for  the  privilege  of  sending  them  here."  Ten  or 
twelve  parents  filled  out  the  papers  to  have  their  children  entered  in 
primary  school  in  April.  Others  confessed  that  their  child  was  not 
recorded,  and  on  closer  inquiry  the  marriage  was  not  registered,  so  we 
are  starting  on  a  civic  reform.  The  head  teacher  is  visiting  the  homes, 
explaining  the  law,  getting  the  child  legitimatized  and  then  enrolled  as 
a  citizen. 

I  have  superintended  the  Rescue  Home,  living  in  it,  at  Okubo,  a 
suburb  of  Tokyo.  Five  young  girls,  rescued,  have  been  placed  in  mis- 
sion schools  on  scholarships ;  four  have  found  work  as  domestics  in 
Christian  homes ;  five  were  restored  to  their  parents ;  one  went  to 
Hawaii  to  become  the  wife  of  a  Christian  man  there;  four  were 
baptized  and  received  into  Tsumohazn  Church  during  the  year;  and 
three,  after  remaining  for  a  short  time,  ran  away.  We  teach  the  Bible 
morning  and  evening  in  the  Home,  one  and  a  half  hours  secular  book- 
knowledge,  cooking,  sewing  and  knitting.  There  are  at  present  seven 
girls  in  the  Home.  It  is  hard  work,  often  disappointing,  but  the 
tendency  is  upward ;  and  one  of  our  rescued  women  is  now  contributing 
one  yen  a  month  to  the  Home,  to  help  save  others.  She  is  a  happy 
wife  and  a  mother.   One  case  like  the  above  outweighs  many  failures.

women   and   her   important   personal   evangelistic   work    Miss 
West  reports : 

The  Bible  school  has  continued  in  the  same  lines  of  work  and  study. 
We  have  the  same  assistants  with  the  addition  of  Mrs.  Matsupama; 
we  have  about  the  same  number  of  students  who,  beside  their  regular 
study,  are  working  as  usual  in  Sunday-schools,  woman's  meetings  and 
visiting.  During  the  last  year  one  recent  graduate  and  two  students 
were  married. 

Of  the  other  part  of  my  life,  it  is  almost  impossible  to  write.  There 
are  certain  fixed  "meetings,"  but  I  do  not  count  that  my  best  work  in 
them  nor  in  the  regular  Bible  class  on  Simday  morning:  but  rather  in 
the  work  and  prayer  for  individuals  who  as  yet  cannot  come  out  to  pub- 
He  meetings.  My  acquaintance  has  grown  far  beyond  the  limits  of  my 
time  for  visiting  and  the  problem  of  my  life,  at  present,  is  to  know  how 
best  to  help  and  to  lead  the  many,  many  "friends"  who  have  come  in 
touch  with  my  life  and  who  are  hungering  for  some  comfort,  and 
peace  and  hope.  Some  wonderful  surprises  have  come  which  make 
my  heart  stand  still  with  awe  as  I  realize  how  God  answers  prayer. 

THE  HOKKAIDO. 

EVANGELISTIC  WORK.— The  Hokkaido  is  an  island  of 
30,371  square  miles,  i.e.,  one-fifth  of  the  whole  empire,  with 
a  present  population  of  1,500,000  Japanese  and  about  16,000 
Ainu,  and  a  possible  population  of  10,000,000,  who  might  be 
sustained  by  the  produce  of  the  7,250,000  acres  of  arable  land, 
only  14  per  cent,  of  which  is  cultivated,  and  find  employment 
thereon,  or,  in  mining  the  600,000,000  tons  of  coal  estimated  as 
still  dormant  in  the  great  coal  fields,  or  in  cutting  the  forests 
that  cover  the  great  mountain  areas.  In  Tokachi  Province 
there  is  a  prairie  so  extensive  that  its  boundaries  have  not  yet 
been  explored.  Asahigawa  is  coming  more  and  more  into 
prominence,  and  may  make  a  still  more  noted  advance  if  the 
proposition  to  move  the  capital  from  Sapporo  to  our  city 
is  favorably  considered  by  the  Central  Government.  The  Diet 
at  present  in  session  in  Tokyo  is  even  now  deliberating  thereon. 
The  recent  burning  of  the  "Docho"  (the  capitol  building  at 
Sapporo)  and  offer  on  the  part  of  the  Asahigawa  fold  to  build 
a  new  "Docho,"  if  located  in  the  latter  city,  make  the  propo- 
sition of  removal  to  the  centre  of  the  island's  life  and  wealth 
not  an  impossibility. 

Mr.  Pierson  reports : 

The  Mission  has  hitherto  worked  in  seven  places.  Five  of  these, 
to  wit,  the  Asahigawa,  Takigawa,  Gakuden,  Hokkosha  and  Mororan 
fields,  are  still  its  peculiar  work.  Of  the  remaining  two,  one  Kushiro, 
was  undertaken  by  the  Dendokyoku  (Japanese  Board  of  Missions), 
but  there  has  been  difficulty  in  securing  a  pastor.  Meanwhile  the  Mis- 
sion has  offered  to  do  what  it  could  in  supplying  the  need  and  Mr. 
Sakamoto  and  I  have  visited  the  field  monthly.  The  people  there  have 
built  a  combination  church  and  parsonage  on  a  commanding  site,  a 
constant  reminder  of  the  way   of  life   to  the  people  of  the   city  and 


248  EASTERN  JAPAN— THE  HOKKAIDO. 

"them  that  go  down  to  the  sea  in  ships."  The  other  field  that  lies 
between  the  Dendokyoku  and  the  Mission  is  the  Nayoro-Piuka  field. 
Through  a  series  of  events  the  Nayora  part  of  this  binary  system  has 
become  the  territory  of  the  Dendokyoku,  and  we  consented  to  their 
asking  one  of  our  faithful  men,  Mr.  Yamaguchi,  to  take  charge  of  this 
place.  The  other  part  of  the  territory,  Piuka,  of  their  own  accord  went 
into  the  Nevius  Plan  and  now  conduct  their  own  afifairs,  still  con- 
tinuing in  connection  with  the  Nihon  Kiristo  Kyokai  (Japanese  Pres- 
byterian Church),  receiving  no  aid  either  from  Dendokyoku  or  Mis- 
sion. They  go  on  as  usual  with  the  church  services  and  work.  They 
are  reported  as  being  most  faithful  in  attendance,  and  they  are  leading 
inquirers.  I  spent  several  days  there  in  November,  was  cordially  wel- 
comed, invited  to  preach,  and  asked  to  come  again.  It  is  a  most  in- 
teresting example  of  what  can  be,  and  in  some  cases  must  be,  and  in 
other  cases  ought  to  be  done.  There  are  other  places  in  the  Hokkaido 
where  this  system  ought  to  prevail.  Mororan  is  well  named  and  in  good 
condition.  Seven  hundred  new  houses  went  up  last  year  and  i,ooo 
houses  are  going  up  soon.  The  streets  are  filled  with  a  procession  of 
people,  the  cause  of  all  being  the  new  iron  zvorks  and  the  new  steel 
zvorks,  from  both  of  which  more  is  to  be  heard.  When  things  get  going 
in  full  blast  Mororan  will  be  a  great  city.  Hills  have  been  leveled  and 
the  shoals  of  the  wide  harbor  filled  in  and  things  are  going  ahead  as 
fast  as  an  army  of  men  can  make  them. 

Last  year's  report  spoke  of  the  extraordinary  work  which 
had  been  done  in  the  Obihiro  Prison,  whose  chief  was  an 
earnest  Christian  and  among  whose  officers  and  inmates  there 
had  been  a  great  revival.  The  chief  was  removed  by  another 
person,  and  the  new  official  was  much  less  sympathetic  with  the 
Christian  work.     Mr.  Pierson  writes : 

I  write  this  letter  at  the  Obihiro  Prison,  where  we  have  just  cele- 
brated our  Christmas  for  1908.  The  Christmas  celebration  was  held 
in  the  Fujinkwai  Hall  (Women's  Hall)  and  the  attendance  was  almost 
as  large  last  year.  I  counted  in  the  rough  60  men,  80  women,  120 
children,  260  in  all.  The  children  sang  and  recited  most  impressively. 
I  wish  I  could  report  as  good  things  of  the  work  among  the  prisoners 
as  among  the  officials.  Communicating  the  Gospel  to  the  prisoners  is 
cut  off.  Many  are  using  the  Buddhist  prayer  heads  again.  They  have 
no  chance  of  hearing  the  truth.  The  prison  laws  generally  throughout 
Japan  have  become  more  strict.  Intercourse  with  prisoners  is  almost 
impossible.  However,  much  depends  on  the  chief  warder.  In  this  case 
the  new  chief  is  not  disposed  to  give  access.  So,  '*as  faith  cometh  by 
hearing  and  hearing  by  the  Word,"  it  is  not  surprising  if  they  degen- 
erate. But  there  is  much  to  be  said  on  the  bright  side.  Chief  Kurogi 
is  working  for  Christ  in  his  new  field,  Aomori  Prison.  The  Fujinkwai 
among  the  Aomori  Prison  officials'  families  has  increased  from  thirty 
to  sixty.  Bibles  and  Christian  books  are  being  introduced  among  the 
prison  people  in  Aomori.  The  chief  is  chief  official  over  four  prisons, 
so  that  his  field  is  a  wide  one.  Here  in  Obihiro,  Mr.  Usui  is  working 
hard  in  various  ways  and  the  Christmas  gathering  _  (at  which  the 
chief,  a  Buddhist,  was  present  and  who,  after  proposing  Banzais  for 
the  Emperor  and  Crown  Prince,  added  one  for  the  Sunday-school) 
was  an  index.  There  is  a  faithful  believing  remnant,  and  others,  too, 
among  the  officials  who  may  be  won  by  faithful  visitation  and  prayer. 
"This  kind  cometh  not  out  but  by  prayer  and  fasting."  I  am  many 
"ri"  (miles)  remote  from  discouragement,  although  I  do  realize  some 
things,  among  them  the  power  of  Satan. 


EASTERN  JAPAN— THE  HOKKAIDO.  249 

Constant  pra3^cr  should  go  up  that  the  prisoners  may  have  the  Gos- 
pel preached  to  them.  The  Abasliiri  Prison  is  open  to  the  Gospel.  We 
had  the  joy  of  speaking  before  400  prisoners  there  last  October. 

No  report  should  go  in  without  a  grateful  recognition  of  the  changing 
attitude  of  the  nation,  particularly  the  educated  people,  toward  Chris- 
tianity. (By  this,  however,  is  not  meant  the  educational  authorities  in 
Japan.)     There  are  many  even  now  standing  at  the  gates. 

Mrs.  Pierson  writes  of  the  present  work: 

Mr.  Pierson  has  since  then  waited  on  the  head  of  the  Prison  Depart- 
ment for  the  whole  country,  in  Tokyo,  Mr.  T.,  who  himself  a  Christian, 
told  Mr.  Pierson  that  the  Government  per  se  did  not  object  to  Chris- 
tian teaching  in  the  prisons  (though  the  official  chaplains  are  always 
Buddhist  priests),  but  that  large  latitude  to  decide  this  is  left  to  the 
individual  chiefs,  the  present  chief  being  a  Buddhist  naturally  does  not 
favor  Christian  teaching.  Mr.  T.  ofifered,  however,  to  write  the  present 
chief  of  Tokachi  and  to  urge  him  to  permit  this  for  the  600  Christian 
prisoners  there. 

We  are  all  greatly  interested  in  the  "dai  Keshin"  (great  resolve)  of 
the  one-legged  Christian  ex-prisoner  Sugano.  You  know  he  was  a 
gambling  chief  in  Nemuro.  Another  gambling-chief  invading  his  prov- 
ince and  thus  threatening  the  livelihood  of  his  followers  he  challenged 
his  rival  and  killed  him.  For  this  he  was  put  in  prison  and  sentenced 
to  death.  But  on  account  of  the  death  of  the  Dowager  Empress  at 
that  time  the  sentence  was  commuted  to  life-imprisonment,  and  now 
for  good  behavior,  which  dates  (I  believe)  from  the  revival,  he  has 
been  released.  If  he  went  to  Nemuro  his  grateful  gang  would  gladly 
support  him  to  the  end  of  his  days  in  wealth  and  luxury.  But,  like 
Moses,  "esteeming  the  reproach  of  Christ  greater  riches  than  the 
treasures  in  Egypt,"  he  has  chosen  to  go  to  Sendai  and  support  himself 
by  sock-making,  at  which  he  has  become  an  adept  during  his  long  term 
in  prison,  but  which  is  decidedly  infra,  dig.  for  an  ex-gambling  chief ! 
As  soon  as  he  has  established  his  livelihood  he  then  means  to  go  to 
Nemuro.  search  out  his  old  gambling  companions,  and  lead  them  every 
one  to  Christ.  His  "great  resolve"  he  took  pains  to  declare  to  the  non- 
Christian  Governor  of  the  Prison  before  he  started  for  Sendai,  where 
he  now  is.  So  there  is  one  of  the  Christian  prisoners  of  Tokachi  at 
least  who  has  stood  the  test  of  isolation  and  temptation. _  And  this 
man's  test  was  a  test  indeed.  Few  have  had  such  a  "fiery  trial,"  for  his 
prison-mate  (presumably  the  man  he  was  chained  to),  who  was  not 
converted  in  the  revival,  determined  to  test  the  genuineness  of  the 
Christian  religion  by  trying  to  tempt  this  man  in  every  conceivable 
manner  for  one  year.  And  according  to  the  tempter's  own  testimony, 
Sugano  didn't  fail  once!  Now  this  man  says,  "If  Christianity  is  that 
sort  of  a  religion,  I  want  to  'enter  the  faith/  too,"  and  he  has  decided 
to  become  a  Christian !  Pray  that  brave  Sugano  may  succeed  in  his 
"Great  Resolve." 

EDUCATIONAL  WORK.— Sapporo— Hokusei  Jo  Gakko. 
— Miss  Monk  reports  a  total  enrollment  in  this  school  for  girls 
of  175,  with  an  actual  attendance  of  148.  Thirteen  graduated 
from  the  regular  department  after  four  years'  work.  Fifty- 
five  of  the  pupils  were  Christians ;  nineteen  were  baptized  dur- 
ing the  year. 

A  large  part  of  onr  teaching  force  is  recruited  from  the  ranks  of  our 
scholarship  girls,  who  promise  to  teach  for  us  two  years,  at  a  merely 


250  EASTERN   JAPAN— STATISTICS. 

nominal  figure.  After  that,  they  sometimes  remain  two  or  three 
years  more,  at  a  higher  but  still  relatively  low  salary ;  in  fact,  about 
half  the  amount  received  by  Government  teachers  of  like  training  and 
experience. 

Government  inspectors  who  visited  the  school  early  in  the  year 
expressed  themselves  as  greatly  pleased  with  the  school  in  every  par- 
ticular— management,  light,  ventilation,  courses,  and  instruction.  The 
increased  registration  shows  that  parents,  also,  are  increasingly  well 
disposed  toward  us.  The  entering  class  this  year,  eighty  in  number, 
was  the  largest  but  one  in  the  history  of  the  school.  The  exception  was 
the  year  of  the  war  with  Russia,  when,  I  believe,  lOO  new  names  were 
enrolled. 

The  "Violet  Society,"  composed  of  dormitory  girls,  still  continues 
its  good  work.  During  the  year  2,019  bouquets,  mostly  of  pansies  and 
nasturtiums,  were  taken  to  the  city  hospitals.  Each  bouquet  was  fas- 
tened with  a  strip  of  paper  on  which  had  been  written  a  Bible  verse. 
This  society  also  contributed  to  various  church  and  Sunday-school 
enterprises  the  sum  of  yen  6.00.  During  the  year,  nineteen  of  our  girls 
were  baptized.  Thirteen  baptized  Christians  have  left  the  school  (upon 
graduation  or  otherwise)   and  forty-two  are  now  enrolled. 

Otarit. — The  Seishu  Jo  Gakko. — Miss  Rose  reports: 

The  Otaru  Mission  School,  the  Seishu  Jo  Gakko,  is  a  family  school. 
It  accommodates  about  fifty  girls  and  100  children  in  its  Kindergarten. 
It  registers  these  numbers  year  after  year.  It  is  both  a  residential  and 
a  day-school.  Twenty-six  girls  live  in  the  school  and  four  teachers. 
The  pupils  work  for  board  and  tuition.  We  have  no  servants.  Some 
students  pay  only  in  work,  others  also  pay  one  yen  a  month,  others  two 
yen,  a  few  can  pay  three  or  even  four  yen. 

Four  pupils  have  been  baptized  during  the  year,  and  there  are  in- 
quirers among  us.  All  the  pupils  study  the  Bible  daily  and  attend 
family  pfayers. 

Most  of  the  day  pupils  belonging  to  the  upper  school  attend  church 
and  Sabbath-school,  but  the  homes  of  our  Kindergarten  children  are 
almost  all  unknown  to  us.  Our  native  church  here  has  a  fine  Sunday- 
school  and  the  teachers  of  our  Mission  school  carry  on  another  in  the 
busy  market-place,  in  the  house  of  a  Christian  baker.  The  oven  is 
on  one  side,  the  baker's  table  and  flour  bags  are  on  another,  cake  jars 
are  in  front,  and  our  organ  in  the  todana  afield.  But  now  I  have  to 
tell  good  news,  for  this  long-time  rented  lot  has  recently  been  bought 
by  our  Board  and  Mission,  partly  with  funds  obtained  by  the  sale  of 
Tsukiji  property,  and  partly  with  means  raised  on  our  Mission  field.

Under  the  plan  of  co-operation  between  the  Mission  and  the 
Church  of  Christ,  fully  described  in  the  last  annual  report, 
the  evangelistic  work  of  the  Mission  has  been  carried  forward 
most  harmoniously.  The  only  addition  to  the  Mission  force 
during  the  year  was  Miss  Annie  Hail,  daughter  of  the  Rev. 
A.  D.  Hail,  D.D.,  who  returned  to  Japan  with  her  father  and 
mother  under  regular  missionary  appointment. 

KANAZAWA  STATION. 
Mr.  Fulton  reports: 

We  had  Evangelist  Mr.  Kimura  Seimatsu  with  us  for  a  short  time  in 
the  latter  part  of  September  and  early  October.  He  is  very  earnest 
and  straightforward  in  his  preaching,  and  is  very  powerfid  in  bringing 
people  to  decision.  In  all  nearly  100  people  expressed  a  desire  to  study 
Christianity  or  to  lead  a  Christian  life. 

In  October  the  twenty-fifth  and  twentieth  anniversaries  of  the  two 
churches  in  Kanazawa  were  celebrated  by  special  efforts  at  evangelism. 
Messrs.  Uemura  and  Kiyama  were  present  and  three  or  four  days' 
meetings  were  held  with  crowded  houses,  resulting  in  about  sixty 
inquirers. 

Following  the  meeting  of  the  National  Convention  of  Christian 
Endeavor,  two  days'  special  meetings  were  held  in  all  the  places  where 
work  is  being  carried  on,  and  the  delegates  to  the  Convention  exerted 
themselves  to  give  a  forward  impulse  to  the  work  as  a  whole.  The 
meeting  of  the  National  Convention  was  quite  a  feature  for  the  Hokuri- 
kudo,  being  the  first  meeting  of  its  kind  ever  held  in  this  section.  It 
was  looked  forward  to  especially  by  the  young  people,  and  every 
effort  was  put  forth  to  make  it  a  success  as  well  as  a  blessing.  Cer- 
tainly the  attendance  exceeded  all  expectations,  and  strong  impres- 
sions were  made  upon  all  by  the  earnest  addresses  of  the  different 
speakers. 

There  have  been  baptisms  at  each  of  the  out-stations  of 
Daishoji,  K^omatsu,  Takaoka  and  Toyama.  Of  Takaoka 
Mr.  Fulton  writes: 

There  have  been  five  baptisms  during  the  year.  One  an  old  man 
near  seventy  years  of  age,  another  a  little  girl  of  only  nine  yearsi  The 
latter  gave  such  clear  evidence  of  having  been  born  again,  and  at  her

examination  her  replies  to  questions  asked  her  about  her  experience 
so  deeply  impressed  the  little  company  of  Christians,  that  they  all  asked 
that  she  be  received  as  a  full  member.  Since  becoming  a  Christian, 
she  lias  won  the  admiration  of  her  school-teachers  by  her  conduct  to 
such  an  extent  that  they  have  publicly  commended  her  repeatedly, 
and  on  more  than  one  public  occasion  have  asked  her  to  repeat  Chris- 
tian stories  that  she  has  learned  at  Sunday-school  I  asked  her  how- 
she  showed  that  she  was  a  Christian.  She  replied:  "The  other  day 
I  was  M^alking  tip  a  hill  and  passed  an  old  lady  who  had  broken  the 
thong  of  her  wooden  shoe  and  couldn't  walk.  She  was  greatly 
troubled,  so  I  stopped  and  tore  off  a  piece  of  my  hand  towel  and  tied 
the  thong  of  her  shoe.  It  made  her  very  happy.  Also,  a  few  days  ago, 
I  was  at  a  religious  festival  and  found  a  little  child  crying  there.  She 
had  gotten  lost  from  her  mother  and  couldn't  find  the  way  home.  I 
knew  where  she  lived,  so  I  took  her  on  my  back  and  carried  her  home. 
That  is  the  way  I  try  to  show  that  I  love  God. "  She  said  these  things 
in  such  a  simple  earnest  way,  that  among  those  who  were  listening 
there  was  not  a  dry  eye,  and  when  I  asked  them,  "Shall  we  allow  her 
to  take  the  commtinion?"  they  all  said  "Yes."  Just  as  I  start  for 
America  she  has  sent  me  a  letter,  thanking  me  for  teaching  and  bap- 
tizing her,  and  at  the  same  time  asks  me  to  tell  the  Sunday-school 
pupils  in  America  that  she  is  trsnng  to  serve  God  among  many  who 
do  not  know  Him,  and  asks  them  to  pray  for  her. 

The  Yako  now  has  a  subscription  Hst  of  2,200.  It  continues 
to  reach  scattered  inquirers  in  many  places.  Mr.  Curtis  finds 
it  very  useful  in  Korea,  and  Mr.  Gorbold  has  a  contingent  of 
800  around  Kyoto. 

The  Kindergarten  has  been  crowded  with  seventy  children. 
The  Kindergarten  Mothers'  Club,  organized  four  years  ago, 
has  met  twice  a  month.  The  cooking  classes,  Sunday-schools 
and  Christian  Endeavor  Societies  have  all  done  their  work 
faithfully. 

Hokuriku  Girls'  School. — Miss  Luther  reports: 

Though  ever  since  my  return  we  have  been  planning  for  Government 
recognition  and  advertised  our  intentions,  we  regret  to  say  the  entering 
class  in  April  was  very  small  in  comparison  with  those  of  several 
years  back.  About  twenty-five  entered,  nearly  all  of  them  Kanazawa 
girls.  Only  three  entered  the  dormitory.  As  a  large  number  of  the 
outgoing  class  were  boarders,  and  as  only  these  three  new  ones  entered, 
we  at  present  have  only  twenty  students  in  the  building.  This  is  a 
disappointment,  as  we  naturally  have  a  stronger  hold  on  the  boarders 
than  the  day-pupils.  Seventeen  have  been  baptized  since  last  Mission 
meeting.  Four  more  have  taken  their  examinations  and  are  to  be 
baptized  as  soon  as  they  return  in  September."  There  are  exactly 
100  names  on  the  roll  and  about  one-third  of  them  are  baptized 
Christians. 

Two  years  ago  we  reported  a  girl  taken  from  the  school  because  she 
became  a  Christian.  She  was  baptized  jtist  before  going  home,  as  she 
feared  she  would  never  be  allowed  to  either  come  back  or  attend  a 
Christian  service  again.  At  first  she  was  constantly  ill-treated  by  her 
parents  and  an  older  sister.  She  took  a  position  in  a  school  as  assistant 
teacher,  going  home  every  evening.  By  faithfully  trying  to  obey 
parents,  patiently  enduring  unkindness,  and  living  a  true  Christian 
life  both  at  home  and  in  the  school  where  she  taught,  she  has  now 
permission  from  home  to  come  back  and  graduate.     How  happy  she 


254  WESTERN  JAPAN— OSAKA. 

is,  and  what  an  encouragement  to  other  girls  who  are  afraid  to  take 
the  step  in  opposition  to  those  at  home. 

The  brother  of  another  student,  through  his  sister's  influence,  has 
become  so  deeply  interested  in  Christianity  he  has  decided  to  go  to 
Tokyo  to  study,  hoping  ke  may  take  up  the  ministry  as  his  life's  work. 
He  wishes  her  to  enter  a  Tokyo  school,  so  they  may  be  together,  but 
she  is  begging  to  stay  with  us.  Another  result  of  the  influence  of  a 
Christian  life. 

All  the  workers  find  as  many  opportunities  as  they  have 
strength  to  embrace.  Miss  Gibbons  tells  of  a  visit  to  the 
Government  primary  schools  in  Fushiki,  a  fishing  village  near 
Takaoku,  where  she  was  invited  to  go  to  play  for  the  children. 
She  writes: 

Of  course  the  children  were  excited  over  the  foreigner  and  crowded 
around,  but  when  we  reached  the  assembly  room  where  the  organ  was, 
after  I  had  played  a  few  marches,  they  asked  me  to  sing.  I  said, 
"English  or  Japanese?"  atid  they  replied  "Either. "  I  hardly  thought 
I  dared  to  sing  hymns ;  but  this  teacher  brought  her  hymn-book, 
handed  one  book  to  some  of  the  other  teachers  and  we  all  sang 
hymns  for  over  an  hour.  There  were  over  i  ,000  children  in  the  school, 
and  they  were  allowed  to  come  in  by  companies  to  hear  us.  Mr. 
Hayashi  could  not  preach,  of  course,  but  he  had  a  lot  of  tracts  with 
him,  and  he  went  aroiind  talking  with  the  teachers  and  gave  them 
this  literature.  Although  we  were  not  allowed  to  preach,  yet  a  great 
deal  of  Gospel  can  be  taught  by  singing,  and  I  am  siire  that  we  sang 
some  that  will  be  blessed  to  the  good  of  some  hearts  some  time.  I 
don't  think  I  ever  had  a  harder  time  to  get  away  from  any  place  in 
my  life  before,  and  we  had  to  rush  in  order  to  catch  our  train  for  our 
meeting  in  Takaoka. 

OSAKA  STATION. 

The  Ajikawa  Church,  Osaka,  moved  into  its  new  bmlding 
daring  the  year.  Mr.  Van  Hoi-n  reports  of  it  and  some  of  the 
country  work: 

Since  the  church  was  dedicated  we  have  had  three  series  of  meetings 
with  varying  results.  There  were  about  100  decided  for  the  Christian 
life,  i.e.,  Kesshin  hito,  and  are  ready  for  instruction. 

The  work  in  the  province  of  Izumi  is  more  encouraging  than  ever 
before  in  its  history.  At  Sano,  a  town  of  some  10,000  people,  we  have 
had  four  baptisms  in  the  last  few  months.  After  years  of  seemingly 
fruitless  labor,  the  Lord  has  thus  rewarded  us.  This  may  seem  small 
to  those  unacquainted  with  the  field.  Six  years  ago,  I  was  marched 
to  the  police  station,  half  a  mile  away,  hatless  and  shoeless,  on  a  cold 
December  night,  at  the  head  of  a  mob,  because  I  was  holding  a  Chris- 
tian stereopticon  meeting  on  the  same  night  that  there  was  a  troupe  at 
the  theatre.  Three  young  men  and  one  young  woman  have  broken 
away  from  the  old  conservative  thought  of  their  parents  and  come  oiit 
on  the  side  of  Christ. 

Dr.  Murray  and  Dr.  J.  B.  Hail  conducted  the  Evangelists' 
Training  School,  teaching  the  young  men  especially  by  leader- 
ship in  practical  work.     Dr.  Murray  writes: 


WESTERN  JAPAN— OSAKA.  255 

The  work  in  the  school  has  gone  steadily  on,  the  number  of  students 
about  the  same  as  last  year.  As  in  the  primitive  church,  our  chief 
troubles  have  come  through  the  "serving  of  tables.  "  Some  discipline 
has  had  to  be  exercised  lately,  but  it  has  greatly  cleared  the  atmos- 
phere,and  just  at  present  the  condition  along  all  lines  is  very  satisfactory 
Five  students  were  licensed  at  this  Spring's  Chulcwai  and  all  of  them 
have  been  settled  except  one,  who  wishes  to  study  somewhat  longer 
in  the  school.  Recently  the  course  of  study  has  been  more  thoroughly 
systematized;  the  students,  hitherto  all  taught  together  as  one  class, 
have  been  divided  into  an  upper  and  lower  division  of  two  years  each, 
and  a  regular  curricukmi  of  study  covering  four  years  definitely  laid 
out. 

Dr.  Hail  writes: 

One  day  when  we  started  out  on  one  of  these  house-to-house  visita- 
tions I  said  to  the  young  man  who  was  with  me,  "  How  long  a  time  do 
you  propose  to  spend  to-day  in  this  work?"  His  reply  was,  "  I  do  not 
know;  I  expect  to  stay  in  it  until  I  have  won  a  soul.  I  have  asked 
God  to  give  me  at  least  one  soul  to-day." 

On  another  occasion  when  I  was  out  with  another  student,  after  we 
had  been  out  from  2  until  about  8  o'clock,  he  said  to  me  on  our  way 
back  to  our  homes,  "Teacher,  when  I  get  to  preaching  Jesus  to  a  man 
I  forget  that  I  am  hungry." 

Not  only  has  this  work  given  us  an  insight  into  the  hearts  of  some 
of  the  students,  it  has  also  given  us  a  greater  confidence  in  the  fact  that 
the  Gospel  is  the  power  of  God  unto  salvation. 

Hikata  is  one  of  our  churches  that  has  never  had  the  services  of  a 
pastor.  The  elders  of  the  church  take  on  them  all  the  work  that 
usually  falls  on  the  pastor.  They  are  supported  by  an  earnest  body 
of  men  and  women  who  are  all  earnest  workers.  One  night,  after  one 
of  the  theatre  meetings,  one  of  the  elders  telling  about  it  said,  "There 
was  a  man  present  who  makes  his  living  by  gambling.  The  house  was 
crowded,  and  the  people  were  so  quiet  that  you  would  not  suspect  that 
there  was  any  one  there.  This  gambler  was  sitting  well  up  toward  the 
front,  and  when  he  had  listened  to  the  sermons  of  the  preachers  he 
said,  'I  intend  from  this  on  to  live  a  different  life.'  Since  that  time 
he  has  opened  his  house  for  the  meetings  of  the  inquirers,  and  he  has 
become  a  changed  man.  His  conversion  has  had  a  great  influence  on 
the  people  and  there  are  many  inquirers." 

At  Kimiidera  one  day,  as  I  was  going  from  house  to  house,  I  called 
at  the  house  of  one  of  the  Christian  converts.  I  found  the  three  Chris- 
tian men  of  the  place  in  earnest  conference.  I  asked  them  what  the 
subject  of  conference  was.  One  of  them  answered,  "As  you  know, 
the  hymns  that  we  teach  at  the  kogisho  are  now  sung  by  all  the  children 
in  the  school  here."  A  Buddhist  priest  living  in  an  adjoining  village 
was  very  much  incensed  because  his  own  boys  were  singing  Christian 
hymns  and  has  taken  his  children  out  of  school.  Not  content  with 
that,  he  made  complaint  both  at  the  village  headquarters  and  also  at 
the  school  concerning  the  matter.  As  one  of  the  teachers  is  a  Christian 
and  attends  the  meetings  at  the  kogisho  and  conducts  a  class  therein, 
he  demanded  that  the  teacher  either  be  dismissed  or  that  he  be  pro- 
hibited attending  the  Christian  services. 

One  of  the  pleasant  things  we  have  met  was  a  meeting  we  held  just 
before  starting  for  the  Mission  meeting.  About  three  ri  from  Wakayama 
is  the  village  of  Miki.  In  the  school  here,  where  they  employ  ten 
teachers,  eight  of  them  are  Christians.  Two  were  baptized  on  the  8th 
of  July.  After  the  baptisms  we  adjourned  to  the  house  of  the  mayor 
of  the  village,  where  a  preaching  service  was  held.  The  mayor  had 
called  in  all  the  leading  men  of  the  town  and  they  listened  patiently

for  three  hours  or  more  to  the  Gospel.     Then,  after  partaking  of  a  feast 
prepared  for  us,  we  returned  to  our  homes. 

Wihnina  Girls'  School. — Miss  Morgan,  who  is  at  the  head 
of  the  school,  reports: 

The  enrollment  during  the  last  year  was  254;  average  attendance 
about  200;  new  pupils  73.  A  class  of  thirty-six  girls  graduated  from 
the  academic  department  and  five  from  the  sewing  department  which 
is  now  closed.  The  opening  of  the  new  year  in  April  was  not  as 
encouraging  at  first  thought  as  we  had  expected,  the  enrollment  of  195 
being  forty-six  less  than  that  of  the  year  before ,  but  the  loss  from  the 
unusually  large  graduating  class,  the  closed  sewing  department,  and 
a  smaller  number  of  scholarship  girls  accounts  for  forty-four  out  of 
the  forty-six,  and  we  find  that  there  are  practically  as  many  paying 
pupils  in  regular  work  as  before. 

Our  records  were  not  very  closely  kept  for  last  year,  but  the  follow- 
ing numbers  are  not  overstated:  Christians  at  opening  April,  1907,  72; 
baptisms  during  the  year,  33  (also  two  teachers  and  two  of  the  March 
graduates  were  baptized);  public  decisions  in  Y.  W.  C.  A.,  15;  making 
a  total  of  120  choosing  the  way  of  Christ  out  of  the  254  enrolled. 
The  whole  graduating  class  of  thirty-six  took  a  public  stand  for  the 
Christian  life,  three  only  being  refused  baptism  by  parents,  and  one  of 
these  has  been  baptized  since. 

Of  the  Young  Women's  Christian  Association  work  in  the 
school  Miss  Alexander  writes: 

The  first  thing  to  which  I  wish  to  call  attention  is  the  fact  that  our 
Y.  W.  C.  A.  is  unique  in  that  every  student  in  the  school  is  either  an 
active  or  associate  member  of  the  organization.  This  means  that  every 
girl  in  school  has  openly  committed  herself  to  the  recognized  aim  of  the 
society — the  attainment  of  a  Christ-like  character.  No  pressure  was 
used  to  bring  about  this  result.  At  the  welcome  meeting  for  the  new 
students  this  Spring,  the  purpose  of  the  society,  its  relation  to  the 
school,  the  duties  of  the  members  and  the  benefits  to  be  derived  from 
belonging  to  the  organization  were  fully  explained.  A  few  weeks 
later,  it  was  announced  that  new  inembers  would  be  received  the 
following  week.  The  younger  girls  were  advised  to  consult  their 
parents  and  gain  their  consent  before  uniting  with  the  society.  The 
result  was  the  entrance  of  every  new  student. 

Mr.  Kimura  was  with  us  twice  in  June,  and  his  Gospel  talks  were 
fruitful  of  immediate  results.  More  than  sixty  girls  signified  their 
intention  to  be  Christians,  and  these  with  the  thirty  who  had  already 
taken  that  step  make  ninety  who  are  preparing  for  church  member- 
ship. Some  need  more  instimction,  some  are  only  hindered  because 
they  have  not  their  parents'  consent.  It  is  with  great  joy  that  we 
report  that  all  the  girls  in  the  five  higher  classes  are  either  members  of 
the  Church  or  else  preparing  for  the  ordinance  of  baptism. 

Another  point  of  interest  is  worthy  of  mention — the  quiet  hour  for 
Bible  reading.  For  a  period  of  fifteen  minutes,  just  before  the  after- 
noon session  begins,  the  girls  repair  to  their  class-rooms,  where  they 
have  concert  Bible  reading  in  subdued  tones.  The  readings,  while 
under  the  oversight  of  the  Y.  W.  C.  A.,  are  selected  by  the  teachers 
of  the  various  Bible  classes  with  reference  to  the  subjects  being  taught. 
The  influence  of  this  hour  upon  the  school  is  very  evident  in  its  quiet- 
ing effect  upon  the  girls. 

A  training  class  for  teachers  in  the  primary  department  has  had  an 
average  of  twenty-five  in  attendance.     I  have  myself  had  charge  of

two  Sunday-schools  out  from  the  city  a  few  miles      With  two  assistants 
I  have  left  the  school  Sunday  morning,  usually  getting  back  by  dark. 

WOMAN'S  WORK.— All  the  members  of  the  Station  have 
been  busy  in  classes  or  schools  or  church  work.  Miss  Garvin 
reports : 

In  Haze  village  the  principal  family  is  that  of  Yiobayashi.  All 
that  was  left  of  it  last  year  was  three  generations  of  widows.  The 
oldest,  a  woman  of  sixty-two,  had  been  a  notoriously  loud  and  wicked 
character,  a  sake-drinker,  gambler,  and  home-abuser.  But  she  was 
first  to  believe,  the  two  younger  women  and  four  of  the  villagers 
following  her  example  later.  She  opened  her  house  for  weekly  services 
and  for  Sunday-school.  Pastor  Sudzuki,  of  Sakai,  as  well  as  the  Bible 
woman,  visits  there  once  a  week.  When  we  went  to  Haze  to  attend 
their  Christian  services,  I  asked  Mrs.  Yiobayashi  what  words  in  the 
Bible  had  led  her  first  to  believe.  Without  a  moment's  hesita- 
tion she  pointed  to  Pastor  Suzuki  and  said,  "He  was  my  Bible." 
Then  the  daughter  in  turn  pointed  to  her,  saying,  "And  site  was  my 
Bible.  The  first  thing  that  arrested  my  attention  was  the  great 
change  in  my  mother."  In  fact  that  whole  country-side  has  been 
compelled  to  notice  this  change  and  to  associate  it  with  Christianity. 
Late  in  the  Winter  Mrs.  Yiobayashi's  earthly  life  suddenly  ended, 
and  a  great  company  of  people  came  to  attend  the  first  Christian 
funeral  in  that  region.  It  was  thought  that  this  Christian  death 
would  have  its  fruit  in  j^et  more  conversions  there. 

The  number  of  house-to-house  visits  with  open  Bible  which  it  is 
now  possible  to  make  in  Osaka  is  so  large  that  it  is  limited  only  by  the 
time  of  the  missionary. 


HIROSHIMA  AND  MATSUYAMA  STATIONS. 

Dr.  Langsdorf  has  had  charge  of  both  these  fields  since  Mr. 
Bryan's  removal  to  Manchuria.  Through  a  generous  gift 
of  Dr.  W.  W.  Atterbury  the  new  church  building  has  been 
erected  in  Matsuyama.     Dr.  Langsdorf  writes: 

The  work  connected  with  the  Hiroshima  Station  has  greatly  pros- 
pered. Iwakuni:  Two  baptisms;  over  loo  in  the  Sunday-school; 
a  flourishing  young  men's  organization;  good  women's  meetings, 
a.bout  fourteen  or  more  present  monthly;  evangelist  licensed  at  the 
Spring  meeting  of  Presbytery;  members  somewhat  discouraged  because 
of  many  deaths  and  removals,  but  will  be  good  for  their  faith;  accepted 
as  a  Dendo  Kyokwai  by  Presbytery  last  September. 
,  The  Hiroshima  Fukuinkwan,  which  was  estabhshed  only  a  little 
over  three  years  ago,  is  in  a  very  flourishing  condition — more  so  than 
any  other  organization  in  the  Presbytery.  Twelve  baptisms  in  last 
year;  total  membership  forty-nine,  one  of  these  an  infant;  fine  young 
men's  organization,  fourteen  members  and  all  earnest,  active  Chris- 
tians ;  at  several  special  meetings  for  men  only  fifty  to  sixty  present ; 
about  ninety-five  in  Sunday-school;  fine  women's  meetings.  I  had 
German  and  Japanese  Bible  classes,  too,  attended  by  professors  and 
teachers  of  Higher  Normal  College,  Normal  School,  physicians  and 
students.  Mrs.  Langsdorf  had  Enghsh  and  Japanese  Bible  classes; 
house-to-house  visitation. 

Miss  Cooper  reports:

258  •  WESTERN  JAPAN— KYOTO. 

At  the  request  of  seven  of  the  students  in  the  third  year  class  of  the 
Yamanaka  Girls'  School  in  Hiroshima,  a  Bible  class  has  been  opened 
in  my  home.  The  Buddhist  influence  in  this  school  is  very  strong, 
OAving  to  the  fact  that  they  have  received  money  from  that  source  for 
building  purposes,  and  all  but  three  members  of  the  faculty  are  strong 
Buddhists.  The  opposition  of  the  teachers  and  priests  has  prevented 
our  doing  any  work  in  this  school  for  about  two  years  until  now. 

KYOTO  STATION. 

Mr.  Gorbold's  report  covers  an  extensive,  well-planned  and 
well-administered  work,  including  Bible  schools  almost  every 
day  in  the  week  for  children  and  students.     He  writes : 

The  preaching  place  in  Nishijin  (West  Kyoto)  and  also  the  one  at 
Ni  Jo  and  Sakai  Station  are  prospering  and  are  a  source  of  strength  to 
the  church  and  lights  in  the  communities  where  they  are  located.  More 
attend  the  meetings  at  these  places  than  ever  before.  The  careful 
distribution  of  10,000  announcements  and  a  personal  invitation  in 
almost  as  many  homes  has  doubtless  helped  not  a  little  in  securing 
the  attendance.  By  billboard  advertising,  of  which  I  have  made  a 
specialty,  the  people  come  to  realize  that  they  are  wanted  at  Christian 
meetings  even  though  they  are  not  members.  The  tent  meetings  have 
kept  up  interest  as  usual  and  bring  to  thousands  the  seeds  of  truth. 

A  small  room  in  our  house  has  an  outside  door  to  the  porch,  and 
in  this  I  had  matting  laid  and  placed  some  good  seats  which  were 
purchased  from  the  Doshisha  Hospital.  A  notice  on  the  front  gate  for 
twenty-four  hours  brought  a  throng  of  bright  girls  and  boys  to  a 
meeting  in  this  room,  but  it  soon  overflowed  and  two  classes  for  girls 
occupy  two  rooms  in  the  other  part  of  the  house,  while  the  two  classes 
for  boys  are  taught  in  this  little  baggage  room.  One  hundred  and 
forty  are  enrolled  and  half  that  number  till  the  rooms  to  overflowing. 
A  man  will  be  baptized  next  Sunday  who  was  led  through  his  little  girl, 
who  came  to  this  Sunday-school  and  carried  away  now  and  then  a  tract 
which  the  father  read  and  thus  came  to  inquire  more  fully  and  to  go 
to  church.  In  this  same  room  I  have  held  the  regular  Saturday  night 
Bible  class,  which  is  attended  by  teachers  and  students  from  many 
schools  as  well  as  by  business  men. 

In  all  the  ten  English  student  Bible  classes  the  American  Revised 
New  Testament  is  used.  B}''  special  arrangement  the  students  can 
buy  a  very  good  copy  of  this  book  for  20  sen  or  10  cents  gold. 

As  for  the  hundreds  of  children  in  the  Sunday-school  the  matter  of 
cards  is  a  great  problem.  It  is  out  of  the  question  to  give  them  Sun- 
day-school papers  on  account  of  lack  of  funds.  But  they  must  have 
something  to  take  home  with  them  for  study  and  to  show  to  their 
parents  and  brothers  and  sisters,  or  one  of  the  greatest  opportunities 
for  reaching  these  homes  is  lost.  This  great  need  and  opportunity 
led  to  the  adoption  of  a  system  which  has  already  proved  itself  worthy 
of  filling  this  great  need.  This  plan  is  calculated  to  bring  up  a  Bible- 
loving  and  Scripture-memorizing  generation  of  children.  The  plan  is 
as  simple  as  it  is  effective.  When  a  boy  or  girl  comes  for  the  first  time 
he  receives  a  small  slip  of  paper  (not  so  thick  as  a  card).  On  this 
card  is  printed  Gen.  i,  i  in  both  English  and  Japanese.  The  card  is 
numbered  "I."  If  the  boy  comes  the  next  time  (or  some  time)  and 
repeats  this  verse,  he  receives  No.  "  II. "  If  he  does  not  memorize  the 
verse  he  receives  nothing.  The  reciting  of  these  verses  is  made  the 
first  order  of  each  meeting.  Each  teacher  records  in  a  large  book 
the  names  of  the  children  and  the  numbers  of  the  verses  which  they 
have  memorized.     After  the  lesson  for  the  day  has  been  taught,  all 


WESTERN  JAPAN— YAMAGUCHI.  259 

the  children  together  repeat  all  the  verses  learned  to  date.  I  have 
never  heard  sweeter  music  than  the  voices  of  a  hundred  children 
repeating  these  precious  trtiths  from  God's  Word. 

Until  we  get  the  children  we  will  not  find  stalwart  life-long  Chris- 
tians in  Japan.  The  children  are  the  great  evangelizing  force  in  Japan 
to-day,  and  next  to  the  little  children  come  the  older  ones  whom  we 
call  students.  We  hope  to  see  a  network  of  children's  meetings  spread 
over  the  city,  vmtil  there  shall  be  no  street  and  no  home  which  will  not 
furnish  children  to  swell  the  numbers  of  the  great  anny  of  children 
who  are  so  eager  to  sing  the  hymns  and  hear  the  Gospel  stor}'  of  our 
Christ. 

The  many  callers  and  inquirers  who  come  to  our  home  opens  a 
wonderful  opportunity  and  one  of  the  greatest  encouragements  in 
the  work.  The  outlook  along  all  lines  of  work  is  most  marvelous  and 
inspiring. 

Thanks  to  the  generosity  of  visitors,  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Gamble 
and  Mr.  Severance,  provision  has  been  made  for  a  suitable 
headquarters  for  the  student  work. 

Of  the  Kindergartens  Mrs.  Gorbold  reports : 

Both  Kindergartens  have  had  a  flourishing  year,  with  many  on  the 
waiting  list  at  each  place.  Some  parents  turn  away  in  tears  because 
their  children  cannot  be  admitted.  One  woman  wrathfuUy  denounced 
Christianity  because  the  Christian  Kindergarten  can't  admit  her  child, 
who  is  at  least  on  the  waiting  list. 

During  the  year  two  of  the  children  have  gone  to  the  upper  fold. 
The  truly  Christian  death  of  one  whose  last  breath  was  spent  in  singing 
"Jesus  Loves  Me"  led  her  parents  to  study  Christianity,  and  they  are 
now  members  of  the  Church. 

We  have  many  guests  at  the  Marguerite  Ayres  Kindergarten  and 
the  almost  universal  verdict  is,  "This  is  the  most  interesting  thing  I 
have  seen  in  Kyoto,"  or  some  similar  expression  of  pleasure. 

The  Nishijin  Sunday-school  has  had  a  more  satisfactorj''  year  than 
usual  on  account  of  having  a  larger  corps  of  teachers.  There  have 
been  over  300  enrolled  and  a  frequent  attendance  of  125  or  thereabouts. 

Dr.  Jones  has  given  as  much  time  as  he  could,  in  view  of  the 
continued  ill  health  of  Mrs.  Jones,  to  the  work  in  South  Kyoto, 
where  there  are  200,000  people,  many  of  them  in  the  imme- 
diate neighborhood  of  the  head  temples  of  the  influential 
Buddhist  sects,  for  whom  relatively  little  is  being  done. 

YAMAGUCHI  STATION. 

Girls'  Boarding  School. — In  the  Kojo  Jo  Gakuin  seventy- 
five  pupils  were  registered,  twenty-two  of  them  Christians. 
Eight  pupils  did  not  miss  a  day  during  the  school  year,  and 
four  have  not  missed  a  day  for  two  years.  The  average  attend- 
ance was  the  highest  in  the  history  of  the  school.  During 
the  Spring  term  the  average  was  fifty-four. 

The  Morning  Star  Kindergarten  has  had  thirty-five  or 
thirty-six  names  on  the  roll  during  the  entire  year. 

Of  the  EVANGELISTIC  WORK  in  the  Station,  Miss  Wells 
reports: 


260  WESTERN  JAPAN— FUKUI. 

Last  Fall  some  of  the  nurses  in  training  at  the  Ken  Hospital  began 
coming  to  our  house  on  Sunday  afternoons.  The  matron  of  their 
department,  not  a  Christian  herself,  gave  the  girls  permission  to  go 
anyw^here  they  wished  on  Sundays  (their  only  rest  day),  provided  it 
was  where  they  would  hear  Christian  teaching.  Nine  or  ten  availed 
themselves  of  the  permission  and  went  to  church  morning  and  evening 
and  to  our  house  in  the  afternoon.  We  filled  up  the  time  with  singing 
and  a  short  Bible  talk.  They  bought  Testaments  and  hymn  books, 
and  said  they  tried  to  sing  the  hjmms  whenever  they  had  a  little  leisure. 
In  February  two  or  three  of  them  made  inquiries  about  baptism,  but 
it  was  thought  to  be  a  little  too  soon.  In  March  the  class  graduated 
and  scattered.  When  the  new  class  got  fairly  started,  seven  or  eight 
of  them  began  to  come  as  the  others  had  done,  as  often  as  they  had  the 
time.  It  is  a  pleasure  to  have  them  come  on  Sunday  afternoons,  for 
they  enjoy  the  singing  so  much.  One  of  them  told  me  that  whenever 
any  of  our  Christians  are  sick,  these  nurses  take  their  hymn-books  to 
the  sick  one's  room  and  they  all  sing,  for  they  enjoy  it  so  much.  The 
matron  comes  with  the  girls  to  church  sometimes,  and  I  hope  this  class 
will  not  graduate  before  some  of  their  number  have  given  themselves 
to  the  Master. 

The  children's  weekh^  meetings  at  Ogari  (nine  miles  away)  have 
been  continued  regularly  through  the  year,  but  the  preaching  services 
have  been  very  irregular.  From  the  time  cold  weather  began  the 
attendance  increased  till  our  place  was  crowded,  there  being  between 
eighty  and  ninety  children  seated  and  a  dozen  or  more  adults,  and  an 
equal  number  of  children  standing  outside. 

The  preaching  places  at  Mitajiri,  Yanai  and  Tokuyama  have  all 
become  "Dendo  Kyokwai."  W^e  have  been  to  each  of  these  places  for 
women's  meetings,  all  of  which  have  been  pretty  well  attended.  We 
have  also  been  to  Hagi,  Tsuwano,  Chofu,  Moji  and  Shimonoseki  for  work. 
The  work  at  Hagi  is  in  a  ver}''  discouraging  condition,  but  it  may  be 
only  the  darkest  hour  before  the  morning.  The  church  at  Moji  has 
been  enlarged  and  fixed  up  generally  and  is  much  better  than  ever 
before.     The  women's  meetings  there  are  always  well  attended. 

The  church  in  Shimonoseki  was  without  a  pastor  for  several  months, 
but  recently  they  called  some  one  and  he  is  probably  there  by  this 
time.  Their  Sunday-school  has  been  reorganized,  new  methods  tried, 
and  they  now  have  an  attendance  of  over  loo  children  and  seven 
teachers,  and  the  attendance  at  church  is  better  also. 

Weddings,  funerals,  calling,  callers,  all  these  have  filled  the  daj^s. 
In  Miss  Nishi  I  have  had  a  most  efficient  and  consecrated  helper  and 
companion,  and  her  forgetfulness  of  self  in  the  interests  of  the  work 
has  been  the  means  of  influencing  many  to  feel  that  the  Christian  life 
is  not  a  sham  nor  a  shame. 

FUKUI  STATION. 

Mr.   Dunlop  writes: 

In  Fukui  City  there  have  been  twelve  baptisms  since  September, 
but  there  have  been  the  usual  number  of  removals,  and  the  membership 
is  actually  little  larger  than  before.  It  has  grown,  however,  in  the 
spirit  of  responsibility  and  in  financial  strength. 

We  have  in  our  central  chapel  at  Fukui  a  better  Sunday-school  than 
ever  before,  the  attendance  ranging  from  fifty  to  seventy,  and  the 
school  well  organized  and  with  a  good  staff  of  volunteer  teachers.  I 
have  had,  besides  a  Bible  class  in  Japanese  in  the  Sunday-school,  two 
Bible  classes  of  Normal  School  students,  in  which  the  instruction  is 
given  in  the  usual  way  in  such  classes,  partly  in  English  and  partly  in 
Japanese. 


WESTERN  JAPAN— WAKAYAMA.  261 

Mrs.  Dunlop  resumed  her  cooking  class  last  Fall,  which  has  been  well 
attended  by  wives  of  officials  and  others  of  the  better-to-do  class. 

Upon  returning  to  Fukui  we  found  that  many  of  Our  former  friends 
of  the  official  class  had  either  left  the  city  or  were  soon  to  leave.  These 
changes  include  the  governor  of  the  prefecture,  the  mayor  of  the  city, 
the  principals  of  normal,  middle,  and  agricultural  schools,  the  chief  of 
police  of  the  city,  the  prefectural  superintendent  of  police,  the  prefec- 
tural  secretary,  and  the  chief  public  prosecutor. 

We  never  lack  a  fixed  audience  of  fifteen  to  twenty,  and  recently  I 
baptized  three  adults  there,  one  of  them  being  an  old  lady  of  ninety-two, 
great-aunt  of  Evangelist  Kuchimura,  the  oldest  person  I  have  ever 
baptized  or  seen  baptized.  She  said  that  she  "did  not  understand 
the  doctrine  well,  but  she  believed,"  and  wished  to  be  baptized,  and 
upon  examination  I  found  that  she  certainly  tmderstood  enough  and 
that  she  had  an  intelligent  and  warm  faith,  and  I  counted  it  an  unusual 
privilege  to  be  allowed  to  admit  such  an  one  to  the  Church  of  Christ, 

KURE  STATION. 

Mr.  and  Mrs.  Brokaw  were  obliged  to  come  home  for  a  part 
of  the  year  on  account  of  Mrs.  Brokaw 's  health.  They  were 
on  the  field  long  enough  to  supervise  the  erection  of  the  new 
Mission  house  at  Kure.  The  out-station  work  is  in  better 
condition  than  a  year  ago. 

WAKAYAMA  STATION. 

Dr.  J.  B.  Hail  reports: 

The  whole  Wakayama  field  is  divided  into  five  circuits.  The  most 
central  field  is  that  which  has  for  its  centre  Tanabe.  Seven  of  these 
towns  are  on  the  coast  road  leading  south  from  Tanabe.  The  farthest 
is  fifty  miles  distant.  Mr.  Ito  visits  each  of  these  places  once  in  two 
months.  The  other  three  towns  are  on  the  motmtain  road  that 
leads  to  Shingu.  The  farthest  is  forty-five  miles  from  Tanabe.  In 
all,  the  number  of  inquirers  in  this  circuit,  including  the  town  of  Tanabe, 
is  about  loo.  The  second  circuit  extends  from  Tanabe  to  Hikata. 
Twice  during  the  year  the  whole  field  has  been  visited  by  the  evangelist 
in  company  with  another  worker.  The  workers  held  street  preaching 
services  in  all  the  towns,  from  three  to  five  services  being  held  each 
day.  On  these  occasions  the  night  services  were  full  and  the  people 
were  not  wearied  after  three  or  four  hours'  services. 

A  third  circuit  consists  of  the  towns  of  Hikata  and  Kimiidera  and 
the  city  of  Wakayama.  The  church  at  Hikata  has  had  a  year  of  steady 
growth.  The  present  membership  is  seventy-five.  Twice  during 
the  year  they  have  held  meetings  in  the  theatre.  On  both  occasions 
the  house  was  filled  to  its  utmost  capacity.  The  order  was  perfect. 
The  people  came  to  hear  the  Gospel,  and  although  on  each  occasion 
the  services  lasted  over  three  hours,  there  was  no  manifestation  of 
impatience  on  the  part  of  the  audience.  Among  the  fruits  of  one  of 
these  meetings  was  the  conversion  of  a  notorious  gambler  . 

In  the  city  of  W'akayama  the  church  dedicated  its  new  house  of 
worship  on  the  3d  of  November  and  on  the  same  day  installed  its  pastor. 

In  all  there  have  been  thirty-three  baptisms  dxiring  the  year. 

A  fourth  field  comprises  the  villages  of  Kokawa,  Ozu,  Nate  and 
Karishiku. 


262  WESTERN  JAPAN— TANABE. 

Mrs.  Hail  reports: 

Among  our  most  faithful  workers  is  an  old  lady  over  seventy  years  of 
age,  who  worships  with  us  and  devotes  a  large  part  of  her  time  to  the 
work.  Her  home  is  in  a  distant  province  and  she  is  not  a  member  of 
the  Nippon  Kinsto  Kiyokwai.  She  came  to  Wakayama  two  }^ears  ago, 
expressly  to  bring  her  son,  who  belongs  to  another  house,  to  Christ. 
Two  weeks  ago  the  whole  family,  father,  mother  and  four  children, 
were  baptized. 

TANABE  STATION. 

Of  the  work  in  Tanabe  Miss  Leavitt  writes: 

I  have  no  touring  to  report  this  year.  Every  day  since  our  last 
Mission  meeting  has  been  spent  in  my  Station,  Tanabe,  and  all  work 
done  has  been  in  connection  with  the  church  there.  Its  regular  Sunday 
and  week-day  services  I  have  attended  regularly,  giving  such  help 
as  I  could  with  the  music.  I  have  supplied  Bible  lessons  on  Sundays 
in  the  pastor's  absence,  and  taught  our  English  Bible  class  every 
Sunday  evening.  Lately,  instead  of  the  Bible,  Mrs.  Curtis'  book, 
"The  Story  of  Salvation,"  has  been  used  in  this  class. 

Four  Sunday-schools  are  carried  on  in  the  town.  My  two  helpers 
and  I  are  responsible  for  one  in  a  preaching  place  in  the  eastern  suburb, 
and  we  teach  in  and  feel  almost  as  much  responsible  for  the  larger 
school  in  the  church.  The  attendance  here  has  not  fallen  below  loo 
in  the  past  year  and  has  gone  up  to  148,  besides  the  six  teachers  and 
superintendent  and  the  pastor  of  the  church.  The  Sunday-school  has 
an  average  of  sevent}^. 

There  seems  to  have  been  an  effort  to  secure  Christian  teachers  in 
the  public  schools.  In  place  of  but  two  last  j^ear  there  are  now  seven 
in  the  town,  besides  one  who  teaches  in  a  village  near  by. 

The  special  evangelistic  effort  of  the  Dendo  Kyoku  last  Spring, 
which  gave  us  a  visit  from  Mr.  Kirjama  and  Mr.  Baba.  proved  a  bless- 
ing to  the  church.  Very  thorough  preparation,  both  in  prayer  and 
arrangements,  was  made  for  weeks  before  the  meetings,  which  were  held 
but  three  days.  Forty  persons  gave  in  their  names  as  inquirers. 
These  were  divided  into  three  classes — heads  of  families,  young  men 
and  girls — and  each  class  is  still  taught  weekly  according  to  its  needs 

One  Sunday  afternoon  four  young  men  came  to  ask  particularly 
about  Sabbath  keeping.  It  was  an  opportunity  I  had  long  wanted, 
so  I  tried  to  make  the  best  of  it.  For  three  hours  we  talked — not 
disputing  and  arguing,  but  searching  the  Law  and  Gospel  to  find  God's 
purposes  toward  us  concerning  the  Sabbath.  One  man — a  working- 
man — seemed  to  wish  to  evade  its  requirements;  another,  a  teacher, 
found  no  difficulty  in  accepting  them;  another,  a  merchant's  son,  said 
he  only  wanted  to  find  out  what  was  right,  whether  it  was  hard  or  easy; 
but,  according  to  his  idea  of  the  day  as  one  of  spiritual  refreshment 
and  peace  of  mind,  his  conscience  wouldn't  let  him  selfishly  leave 
all  the  work  of  the  house  and  shop  to  the  rest  of  the  family,  after  he 
himself  had  enjoyed  the  morning  in  Sunday-school  and  church. 
Feeling  that  there  was  still  much  for  each  one  to  learn,  we  had  to  leave 
the  subject  with  prayer  for  enlightenment  and  courage  to  see  and  do 
God's  will  in  this.  It  is  a  sorrow,  shared  doubtless  by  each  one  here, 
that  the  church  keeps  the  day  so  indifferently,  but  their  difficulties 
are  many. 

Last  year  one  young  man  was  dismissed  from  the  church  for  immoral 
conduct.  This  case  of  discipline  was  the  first  for  man}"  years,  but  it 
had  a  wholesome  effect  on  both  the  church  and  the  town.  The  church 
certainly  has  gained  a  recognized  influence  in  the  place  and  is  regarded 


WESTERN  JAPAN— YAIMADA.  263 

as  a  helpful  factor  in  it.  This  was  shown  when  the  pastor  was  planning 
to  begin  a  kindergarten  in  the  church  btiilding.  Several  men,  not 
Christ'ians,  offered  aid;  the  town  office  donated  a  quantity  of  supplies 
and  money  to  pay  for  necessary  repairs  and  changes  in  the  building. 
A  judge's  wife,  who  had  been  a  kindergarten  teacher,  freely  gave  her 
help  and  advice  in  getting  it  started.  Only  one  teacher  is  regularly 
employed,  with  a  young  girl  to  help  her.  My  two  helpers  give_ their 
time  free  of  charge.  None  of  them  have  had  any  previous  training. 
As  a  kindergarten,  it  is  absurdly  imperfect  in  equipment;  but  as  a 
way  to  make  friends  with  the  children  and  their  parents  and  showing 
them  the  value  Christians  place  on  these  little  ones,  it  is  a  great 
success.     The  daily  attendance  is  about  seventy. 

Miss  Moore  reports: 

We  have  kept  up  two  Sunday-schools,  one  on  Sunday  mornings 
and  one  in  the  afternoon.  In  the  former  we  have  ninety-nine  enrolled, 
but  often  those  present  exceed  that  number.  We  have  three  teachers 
in  this  school.  The  latter,  which  is  for  the  fishermen's  children,  can 
hardly  be  called  a  Sunday-school;  it  has  been  called  "a  spot  on  the 
'hama,'  "  i.e.,  beach.  And  so  it  is,  for  we  have  no  house,  but  hold  our 
meetings  out  on  the  sand.  But  these  have  been  held  regularly  and 
we  have  an  enrollment  of  fifty-five. 

YAMADA  STATION. 

Mr.  Hereford  reports  regarding  the  new  church  building 
and  other  hopeful  features  of  the  work: 

The  Christians  are  taking  great  interest  in  the  building,  and  we 
hope  that  it  may  prove  a  blessing  to  them  and  to  man}''  others.  Some 
unbelievers  have  volunteered  to  help.  The  building  is  to  be  finished 
by  the  middle  of  September.  We  hope  to  see  them  become  self- 
supporting  pretty  soon  after  the  building  is  completed. 

There  were  five  young  inen  in  the  graduating  class  of  the  Yamada 
Middle  School  who  had  been  brought  into  the  church  through  the 
English  classes.  The  graduating  class  numbered  fifty-six,  and  the 
first,  second,  and  fifth  men  in  the  class  were  Christians.  I  invited 
the  five  to  our  home  the  night  after  their  graduating  for  a  farewell 
meeting  with  them.  I  talked  to  them  about  their  life-work.  I  told 
them  of  the  importance  of  their  plans  for  life  coinciding  with  the  plans 
of  God.  I  assured  them  that  they  would  receive  smaller  salaries  and 
have  harder  work  to  do  in  the  ministry  than  in  other  professions,  but 
told  them  that  doing  God's  will  meant  peace  of  heart.  One  of  them 
said  that  he  had  intended  being  a  "rice  merchant"  and  making  a 
great  deal  of  money,  which  he  intended  to  use  for  the  glory  of  God,  but 
that  now  he  was  sure  that  he  was  called  of  God  to  the  work  of  the 
ministry.  He  met  strong  opposition  in  his  home,  but  was  firm  in  his 
decision.  The  daj'  before  he  left  for  school,  he  came  to  our  home 
to  make  a  farewell  call,  and  while  he  was  there  his  father  came  with  a 
box  of  cakes  and  a  string  of  thanks,  as  an  offering  to  us  for  the  teach- 
ing and  help  that  we  had  given  his  son.  Both  father  and  son  were 
surprised  and  confused  when  they  met,  but  the  son  was  glad  to  know 
that  his  father  was  thanking  us  and  not  cursing  us  for  what  we  had 
done  for  him. 

The  visible  restilts  of  the  j'ear's  work  in  the  whole  Yamada  field 
are  sixty-three  baptisms,  one  church  repaired,  one  church  now  in 
course  of  construction,  and  considerable  advance  in  self-support. 
In  this  work  we  have  been  helped  by  Miss  Riker,  four  evangelists,  two 
Bible  women,  and  about  125  Christians. 


264  WESTERN  JAPAN— TSU. 

Miss  Riker  writes: 

In  Yamada  the  smallest  class  and  easiest  work  has  been  most  fruit- 
ful in  visible  results.  My  girls'  English  class  is  small  in  numbers  and 
irregular  in  attendance,  but  the  five  young  ladies  have  all  been  bap- 
tized since  last  September. 

Although  the  master  of  the  Yamada  Orphanage  is  an  ex-Shinto 
priest,  he  allows  us  to  go  and  teach  the  children. 

TSU  STATION 

After  the  departure  on  furlough  of  the  Rev.  and  Mrs.  J.  E. 
Hail,  Miss  Garvin  took  up  the  work  at  Tsu.     Mr.  Hail  writes : 

One  of  the  men  baptized  at  Kameyama  was  a  large  sake  brewer, 
who  gave  up  his  whole  business  at  a  heavy  financial  loss  in  order  to 
become  a  Christian.  It  had  been  the  business  of  his  house  for  genera- 
tions. Among  the  vats  which  had  been  used  by  his  family  in  brew- 
ing sake  were  some  made  of  fine  Keyaki  wood  several  hundred  years 
old.  In  destroying  the  vats  it  occurred  to  this  man,  Mr.  Mori,  that 
it  would  be  better  still  to  use  that  wood  in  making  a  pulpit  for  our 
chapel  at  Kamej^ama,  so  he  is  having  that  done. 

I  have  continued  the  practice  of  speaking  to  the  students  of  the 
Ueno  Third  Middle  School  in  their  school  on  "Religious  and  Moral 
Subjects"  on  every  visit  to  the  city,  this  being  the  request  of  the  school 
authorities. 

One  of  the  men  baptized  at  Haze  was  the  son  of  the  man  who  built 
the  chapel  at  this  place.  He  had  been  very  wild  and  was  accustomed 
to  declare  that  when  his  generation  came  he  would  tear  down  the 
church  and  sweep  Christianity  out  of  the  village.  He  is  now  treasurer 
of  the  fund  which  the  Christians  have  started  for  enlarging  the  church 
building. 

In  Tsu  alone  there  is  much  more  than  enough  work  to  keep  several 
missionaries  busy.  Once  a  week  I  have  taught  a  class  in  Homiletics 
and  Apologetics.  The  public  school  teachers'  Bible  class  meets  every 
Saturday  afternoon,  and  the  Normal  School  Bible  class  twice  a  week. 
I  have  also  several  classes  in  the  Young  Men's  Club  recently  organized 
by  the  church.  Besides  this,  there  are  several  hundred  inquirers 
secured  at  the  Tsu  Exposition  last  year,  with  whom  I  have  carried  on 
an  irregular  correspondence  during  the  past  year.  In  the  special 
Taikyo  Dendo  meetings  held  here,  covering  about  two  and  a  half 
weeks  in  point  of  time,  there  were  117  or  more  decisions  to  accept 
Jesus  the  Christ  as  Saviour,  some  twenty-five  Sunday-school  children 
being  included  in  this  number.  Among  the  remainder  thirt}''-seven 
were  Normal  School  students,  several  public  school  teachers,  two  or 
three  of  the  younger  men  in  the  Appellate  Court,  and  other  prefectural 
officials. 

Miss  Garvin  writes  further  of  the  work  at  Haze  and  of  the 
converted  brewer  at  Shano: 

The  Bible  woman  supplies  the  pulpit,  keeps  up  the  prayer  meeting 
and  Sunday-school,  and  acts  as  pastor  to  the  Christian  community. 
She  is  young,  a  graduate  of  the  Kyoritsu  Jo  Gakko,  Yokohama,  and 
has  served  acceptably  in  Haze  for  one  year.  She  said  that  she,  like 
Samuel,  was  when  a  child  given  by  her  parents  to  the  Lord  for  service. 
The  meetings  in  Haze,  I  am  told,  have  practically  to  be  dropped  for 
two  months  in  Summer  and  again  for  two  months  in  Winter,  because 
the  whole  village  has  to  give  its  attention  to  the  silk-worm  industry. 


WESTERN  JAPAN— DAIREN.  265 

The  leading  Christian  at  Shano  was  a  sake  brewer.  Upon  becoming 
a  Christian  in  February  he  at  once  sold  all  of  his  sake  brewing  outfit. 
Though  offered  a  good  price  for  it  b)'  other  sake  brewers,  he  sold  it 
at  less  profit  that  it  might  not  agian  be  used  for  a  bad  purpose.  He 
also  sold  his  costlj-  Buddhist  shrine.  The  place  where  the  sake  vats 
once  stood  is  now  filled  with  looms  for  weaving  flags.  About  thirty 
men  and  women  are  employed  for  the  looms .  On  Sunday  thej"  are 
given  a  day  of  rest  and  are  assembled  in  their  employer's  house  to  hear 
the  Gospel. 

The  Drennan  Memorial  Church  was  dedicated  March  4.  Its  tower 
lights  can  be  seen  afar.  Its  seating  capacity  is  500  and  it  stands  on 
a  lot  of  perhaps  two  acres. 

About  sixty  young  men  from  the  Tsu  schools  continued  their  Bible 
study  with  Mr.  Hail  till  he  left,  and  I  have  undertaken  to  keep  up 
these  classes  in  his  absence. 

DAIRBN  STATION. 

Mr.  Winn  reports  of  the  work  at  Dairen  in  Manchuria, 
where  he  is  acting  as  pastor  of  the  Japanese  church : 

The  organization  of  the  church  was  effected,  four  excellent  men 
being  elected  as  elders.  One  was  at  the  head  of  the  police  department 
of  Dairen,  while  another  had  until  recently  been  at  the  head  of  the 
hospital  of  the  South  Manchurian  Railroad  Company. 

We  had  as  guests  on  the  occasion  the  Chief  of  the  Civil  Adminis- 
tration of  Dairen,  one  of  the  Directors  of  the  South  Manchurian  Rail- 
road, the  United  States  Consul,  and  the  English  Vice-Consul.  The 
Chief  of  the  Civil  Administration  made  a  speech  of  congratulation, 
in  which  he  expressed  the  best  wishes  for  the  success  of  the  work  which 
the  church  is  doing.  As  I  listened  to  his  words,  and  connected  with 
them  the  fact  that  the  "  Kwantung  Government"  had  aided  in  the 
erection  of  the  beautiful  building  we  were  dedicating  to  God's  glory, 
I  could  but  marvel  at  the  changed  attitude  of  the  Japanese  Govern- 
ment toward  the  Church. 

I  am  obliged  to  say  that  for  the  first  of  the  time  during  the  past  year 
we  felt  something  of  discouragement. 

After  a  special  week  of  prayer  tlie  conditions  changed 
greatly  for  the  better. 

The  church  Y.  M.  C.  A.  on  two  occasions  rented  the  largest  hall 
they  could,  and  each  time  for  three  nights  in  succession  held  Christian 
lecture  meetings.  I  was  wonderfully  impressed  at  the  time  with  the 
fine  spirit  shown  and  the  earnest  efforts  made  to  reach  others  with 
some  knowledge  of  the  Gospel.  They  had  crowded  houses  every 
night. 

Another  unusual  thing  which  occurred  was  a  union  day  of  sports. 
The  union  was  that  of  the  Church,  the  Sunday-school,  the  Charity 
Hospital,  the  International  Y.  M.  C.  A.  night-school,  and  the  Salvation 
Army  Rescue  Home.  Early  on  the  morning  of  April  3  there  was  a 
general  concourse  at  the  church,  from  which  the  procession  took  its 
way  to  the  Tiger  Park.  Banners  waved  and  Christian  songs  were 
sung  as  we  moved  through  the  streets.  A  large  place  in  the  Park 
had  been  partitioned  oft"  for  our  use,  and  flags  of  all  nations  were  strung 
on  ropes  waving  in  many  directions.  The  time  from  10  A.M.  to  4  P.M. 
was  filled  with  games  and  sports.  At  the  noon  intermission  1,200 
lunches  were  necessary  to  supply  the  crowd  inside  the  grounds-     Out-

side  there  was  a  throng  of  several  thousands,  who  from  close  by  or 
from  the  hills  at  a  little  distance  enjoyed  watching  the  sports.  With 
the  exception  of  two  or  three  times  in  deciding  who  were  the  winners 
in  close  contests,  there  was  scarcely  an  excited  word  spoken  during 
the  day.  The  crowd  saw  how  clean  sports  and  recreation  could  be 
conducted.  It  was  a  splendid  object  lesson  to  the  people  of  Dairen. 
A  squad  of  policemen  who  were  on  duty  said  that  it  was  the  easiest 
day's  work  they  had  ever  had  on  such  an  occasion :  indeed  that  they 
had  nothing  to  do  that  day.  I  stood  in  a  booth  with  one  of  the  elders, 
kept  busy  in  distributing  prizes  the  whole  day.  It  was  truly  a  grand 
day  of  its  kind,  far  beyond  any  thought  of  mine  as  to  what  it  would  be. 
But  the  cost  was  beyond  what  I  imagined  it  would  be  also.  Over 
300  yen  were  paid  out,  including  the  cost  of  the  lunches.  The  exercises 
on  the  ground  were  opened  with  a  hymn,  Scripture  reading  and  prayer. 
They  were  closed  in  the  same  way.  Everybody  felt  repaid  for  the 
work  done  and  the  time  given  to  the  field  day;  and  a  few  evenings 
later  the  church  was  filled  with  people  that  had  gathered  to  give  thanks 
for  the  success  of  the  day. 

Another  very  interesting  evening  was  one  which  was  devoted  to 
meeting  and  encouraging  a  number  who  had  signified  their  desire  and 
determination  to  become  Christians.  These  inquirers  were  guests  of 
the  evening.  While  tea  and  cake  were  enjoyed,  they  were  encouraged 
to  introduce  themselves  with  a  few  words  about  their  personal  history. 
After  the  guests  had  spoken,  the  hosts  of  the  hour  gave  one  by  one  some 
things  of  their  own  personal  history  and  told  of  the  way  in  which  they 
had  been  led  to  become  Christians.  These  speeches  were  a  succession 
of  the  most  interesting  and  telling  experiences  that  I  remember  to 
have  heard  on  any  occasion.  The  grace  of  God  was  magnified,  and 
the  blessings  of  the  Gospel  were  illuminated.  I  was  deeply  thankful 
that  I  had  not  yielded  to  bodily  weariness  and  gone  home  in  the  midst 
of  the  meeting.  To  one  who  feels  the  loss  of  regular  sleep  as  I  do,  late 
hours  are  a  horror.  But  I  was  glad  enough  to  have  staj^ed  for  that 
meeting,  though  it  continued  till  nearly  midnight.  It  was  a  meeting 
when  remarkable  testimony  was  given  of  God's  presence  and  guidance 
of  individuals. 

The  testimony  of  one  was  that  he  had  heard  that  the  trjie  God  was 
the  Father  in  Heaven.  He  lost  his  father  when  a  young  bo}''  and  had 
not  known  what  it  was  to  have  the  love  of  an  earthly  father.  The 
longing  for  a  father's  love  led  him  to  seek  God.  I  never  heard  of  a 
similar  experience.  Another  said  that  he  went  to  San  Francisco, 
thinking  that  he  would  gain  wealth  in  America  and  bring  it  back  to 
Japan.  But  he  found  what  he  did  not  think  of  seeking,  and  yet  which 
was  more  precious  to  him  than  many  riches.  Another  said  that  he 
used  to  glory  in  his  luibelief  and  had  joined  others  in  persecuting  a  man 
in  like  business  with  himself  because  he  was  a  Christian.  But  the 
spirit  of  love  which  the  persecuted  man  showed  moved  his  own  heart 
and  led  him  to  begin  the  study  of  the  Bible  in  earnest.  One  more 
statement  was  that  the  speaker's  mother  was  a  Christian,  and  when  he 
left  home  as  a  young  man  she  gave  him  a  New  Testament.  But  he 
put  it  away  and  did  not  look  at  it.  Several  years  after  that  he  was 
walking  along  a  stream  during  a  tramp  into  the  country.  A  friend 
who  was  with  him,  though  not  a  Christian,  began  to  sing  a  Christian 
hymn.  That  hymn  made  such  an  impression  upon  his  heart  that,  soon 
after  his  return  to  his  boarding  place,  he  got  out  that  New  Testament, 
to  find  that  it  was  interesting  to  him.  He  went  to  the  Christian  preach- 
ing place  and,  like  an  ordinary  unbeliever  and  as  if  he  knew  nothing 
about  the  ways  of  Christians,  stood  outside  to  listen  to  what  was  said. 
When  only  the  preacher  and  missionary  were  left,  he  went  inside  to 
ask  for  instruction  in  the  truth.  That  was  the  beginning  of  the  Chris- 
tian Hfe  for  him.     Yet  one  other  said  that  he  went  to  Osaka  to  get  an 


WESTERN  JAPAN— PORT  ARTHUR.  267 

education  and  seek  his  fortune.  He  soon  found  himself  without  money 
and  without  friends.  As  a  means  for  getting  a  Hving,  he  became  a 
poHceman.  "While  in  that  employment  he  sought  an  introduction  to 
a  missionary,  hoping  to  be  taught  English.  But  before  he  had  courage 
to  make  his  request,  it  was  suggested  to  him  that  he  shotild  come  on 
certain  days  to  study  the  Bible.  He  agreed  to  it  otit  of  mere  polite- 
ness. He  had  once  seen  a  Bible,  but  on  opening  it  at  the  first  of  Gene- 
sis and  reading  a  few  verses,  he  had  slammed  it  down  upon  the  floor 
with  a  feeling  that  he  never  wanted  to  see  it  again.  He  continued  to 
read  it  this  time  for  several  weeks  without  any  interest  in  it ,  till  he 
read  Matt,  xxiii.  37,  "O  Jerusalem,  Jerusalem,"  etc.  Those  words 
went  through  his  heart  like  a  spear  and  led  him  to  study  the  Bible 
with  earnest  desire  to  know  its  teachings. 

Mr.  and  Mrs.  Winn  have  visited  also  the  Japanese  commu- 
nities at  New  Chwang,  Liao-Yang,  Mukden  and  Dai  Sekkyo. 
Mrs.  Winn  writes: 

During  June  we  held  the  first  union  women's  meeting  ever  held  in 
Manchviria,  to  which  the  women's  societies  at  Port  Arthur  and  Kinchin 
were  invited.  It  was  an  all-day  meeting  and  our  women  worked  hard 
to  get  it  up.  The  morning  meeting  was  a  prayer  meeting  conducted 
by  themselves;  at  noon  all  were  provided  with  lunches,  and  in  the 
afternoon  we  had  two  addresses,  the  first  being  on  the  care  of  young 
children  by  an  elder  of  the  chttrch,  who  is  a  prominent  physician,  and 
the  second  on  the  subject  of  salvation  by  Mr.  Yamamura  of  the  Salva- 
tion Army,  who  was  forttmately  in  Dairen  at  the  time.  These  addresses 
were  listened  to  with  great  interest  by  over  eighty  women,  with  a  fringe 
of  men  around  the  edges  who  were  curious  to  see  a  women's  meeting. 
We  had  special  songs  by  some  of  our  best  singers  among  the  women 
and  by  Sunday-school  children  and  a  quartette  of  inale  voices.  At  the 
close  of  the  meeting  afternoon  tea  was  served. 

I  have  undertaken  a  little  new  work  this  year  in  writing,  as  I  was 
urgently  invited  to  do,  for  one  of  our  daily  papers  a  series  of  articles 
on  hygiene,  and  for  a  mothers'  magazine  on  training  of  children. 

We  have  recently  received  into  the  church  by  profession  of  faith 
a  Christian  who  had  long  been  a  special  subject  of  prayer.  He  was 
the  husband  of  a  lovely  Christian  woman.  He  was  so  long  in  reaching 
a  decision  that  I  could  hardly  believe  he  ever  would  become  a  Christian, 
especially  as  his  wife  told  me  that  he  thought  he  could  never  give  up 
the  use  of  sake.  But  he  was  touched  by  the  Spirit  of  God  and  it  did 
not  take  him  long  to  decide  that  he  could  and  would  live  a  Christian 
life.  I  think  his  wife  could  hardly  have  rejoiced  more  than  we  did 
when  he  made  profession  of  his  faith. 


PORT  ARTHUR. 

Mr.  Bryan  reports: 

^ly  work  has  been  largely  that  of  English  teaching  in  two  night- 
schools  in  both  the  army  and  naval  headquarters,  as  well  as  privately 
in  the  home  I  have  had  an  interesting  Bible  class  in  Japanese  in  my 
house  Sunday  evenings  and  have  carried  on  a  Sunday-school  for  chil- 
dren in  the  afternoon.  The  English  teaching  has  given  me  an  oppor- 
tunity of  reaching  with  the  Gospel  those  who  otherwise  would  not 
have  listened.

tians  and  the  calls  made  on  our  time  convince  us  that  the  Mission 
decided  wisely  in  locating  a  family  in  Port  Arthur. 

Mrs.  Bryan  writes; 

Our  opportunities  to  present  Christian  truth  in  Port  Arthur  are  far 
greater  than  I  have  ever  found  them  in  Japan,  because  they  are  so  far 
from  relatives  and  have  little  in  the  way  of  pastime. 

>X^ORK  AMONG  THE  JAPANESE  IN  KOREA. 

Mr.  and  Mrs.  Curtis,  while  retaining  their  connection  with 
the  West  Japan  Mission,  have  been  assigned  to  Korea  for 
work  among  the  120,000  Japanese  resident  in  the  peninsula. 
Mr.  Curtis* reports: 

Of  the  ten  months  in  Korea,  I  have  spent  six  in  touring  and  the 
remainder  in  Seoul.  Almost  everywhere  we  have  found  abundant 
opportunities  for  service.  In  nine  of  the  eighteen  places  visited  no 
Christian  work  had  been  previously  done.  We  have  looked  up  and 
recorded  about  300  people.  Of  these  1 14  were  Christians,  57  inquirers, 
and  123  others,  manj^  of  whom  may  be  classed  as  adherents  or  sym- 
pathizers.    With  nearly  all  these  personal  conversation  has  been  had. 

Among  the  points  at  which  special  work  has  been  done  were  Kunsan. 
where  there  are  3,000  Japanese  resident,  where  the  Christians  welcomed 
Mr.  and  Mrs.  Curtis  gladly  and  advertised  meetings  to  be  held  in  their 
own  houses,  and  came  night  after  night  to  about  ten  services,  and  where 
twenty-one  Christians  and  fifteen  inquirers,  agreeing  to  contribute 
twenty  yen  monthly,  had  sent  in  a  request  to  the  Japanese  Home 
Mission  Board  for  a  permanent  evangelist.  At  Mokpo  (3,000  Japanese) 
the  unbelieving  piit  to  shame  the  nominal  Christians,  for  the  Town  Hall 
was  open  to  us  for  meetings,  and  the  Resident  called  together  the 
policemen  and  gendarmes  for  a  meeting  at  the  Residency.  Yongpo, 
500  Japanese;  Kwangju,  500  Japanese;  Taikn,  3,000  Japanese,  which 
was  the  most  unresponsive  place  of  all;  Alasanipo,  2,500  Japanese. 
The  change  in  atmosphere  between  this  place  and  Taiku,  metaphoric- 
ally and  actually,  was  enormous,  and  our  hearts  took  fresh  courage. 
Here  warm-hearted  Christian  workers,  in  a  newly  hired,  modest  little 
meeting  room,  welcomed  us,  and  for  several  consecutive  nights  souls 
were  led  and  prayed  into  the  kingdom,  and  then  we  had  several  more 
nights  for  the  instruction  of  the  new  believers.  Some  of  these  Chris- 
tians seemed  unable  to  tear  themselves  away  from  their  beloved  church 
home,  and  stayed  on  till  12  or  i  o'clock  night  after  night,  singing  and 
praying.  Fvisan,  18,000  Japanese,  with  an  evangelist  of  the  Church 
of  Christ  in  Japan;  Yongsan,  3,000  Japanese;  Seoul,  17,000  Japanese. 
The  wife  of  the  Resident  and  a  judge  and  his  wife,  in  high  position, 
are  professing  Christians,  and  have  now  begun  to  attend  the  services. 
Chief  Justice  Watanabe,  quiet  and  unassuming,  but  very  pleasant  and 
efficient,  is  a  true  help  and  his  judgment  and  devotion  to  the  Master 
makes  his  advice  most  valuable.  While  I  was  on  my  second  trip 
he  preached  twice  to  the  great  gratification  of  the  hearers.  He  gives 
time  from  his  busy  life  for  conference  whenever  needed. 

The  importance  of  Christian  work  at  this  crisis  cannot  be  measured — 
not  only  as  relates  to  the  Japanese  nation  and  people  in  Korea,  but  to 
the  Japanese  nation  and  to  the  Koreans  as  well.  In  every  quarter  of 
Korea  the  influence  of  the  Japanese  is  being  increasingly  felt,  and 
their  influence  on  the  future  of  the  peninsula  is  immeasurable  in  its 


WESTERN  JAPAN— STATISTICS.  269 

potentialities.     Just  what  this  influence  shall  be  for  moral  and  spiritiial 
good  or  ill  depends  upon  the  nieastire  of  Christianity  they  possess.

THE  KOREA  MISSION. 

The  Korea  Mission  has  had  another  great  year.  The 
remarkable  movement  which  has  challenged  the  attention 
of  the  world  continues  with  unabated  force.  We  have  great 
reason  for  gratitude  to  God  and  yet  reason  too  for  humility 
of  spirit.  Last  year's  report  amazed  and  delighted  the  whole 
Church,  but  this  year's  report  is  even  more  remarkable,  as 
will  be  seen  in  the  statistical  table  at  the  end  of  this  report. 

It  is  plain  that  the  Holy  Spirit  is  working  in  Korea  on  a 
vast  scale,  and  that  all  should  unite  in  special  prayer  and 
should  at  the  same  time  redouble  effort,  that  this  unprece- 
dented opportunity  may  be  rightly  utilized. 

We  are  in  the  midst  of  an  educational  revolution.  Schools  spring 
up  in  a  night,  heathen  and  Christian.  The  Governor  starts  schools; 
the  magistrate  starts  schools;  the  Myun  officials  start  schools;  the 
town  officials  start  schools  and  the  villages  start  schools.  Seven  school 
boards  lay  hold  of  the  flowing  coat  tails  of  one  poor  teacher.  Salaries 
have  gone  up,  and  the  Pj^eng  Yang  graduate  is  the  man  of  the  hour. 
Thanks  to  Dr.  Baird,  his  boys  stand  like  rocks,  and  by  the  valuable 
work  they  do  repay  him  for  all  his  careful  toil.  During  the  year  four 
academies,  as  yet  including  only  the  lower  classes,  have  been  largelv 
conducted  by  Pyeng  Yang  Academy  graduates. 

It  has  been  interesting  to  see  how  the  school  ideals  have  changed, 
and  how  the  demand  for  up-to-date  teachers  has  made  old  Confucian 
scholars  lose  their  proud  seats,  giving  place  to  those  who  know  both 
Chinese  and  the  Western  sciences.  So  strong  has  been  the  leadership 
of  the  Church  that  many  unbelievers  have  sent  their  children  to  church 
schools.  Schools  financed  by  unbelievers  have  sought  church  officers 
to  come  and  run  them.  The  course  of  study  used  in  the  church  schools 
has  been  the  pattern  for  unbelievers'  schools  as  well. 

The  year  has  not  been  free  from  anxiety,  however.  The 
unsettled  condition  of  the  country,  due  to  the  readjustments 
which  the  Japanese  are  inaugurating,  has  of  course  interfered 
to  some  extent  with  the  work,  though  not  as  seriously  as  we 
had  feared.  The  very  interesting  work  among  the  Japanese 
in  Korea  by  the  Rev.  F.  S.  Curtis  is  reported  in  connection 
with  the  West  Japan  Mission. 

The  movement  to  secure  additional  reinforcements  and 
equipment,  inaugurated  by  the  Board  December  2,  1907,  and 
popularly  known  as  "The  Korea  Propaganda,"  has  been 
vigorously  prosecuted  during  the  year  b}^  the  members  of  the 
Mission  who  were  at  home  on  furlough.  The  Rev.  H.  G. 
Underwood,  D.D.,  gave  practically  his  entire  time  to  this 
work,  speaking  and  traveling  in  many  different  States.  He

was  ably  assisted  b}^  the  Rev.  Ernest  F.  Hall,  the  Rev.  R.  H. 
Sidebotham,  and  Dr.  A.  M.  Sharrocks;  while  other  mission- 
aries returning  on  furlough  took  hold  as  they  arrived,  notablv 
Dr.  0.  R.  Avison  and  the  Rev.  WilHam'  M.  Baird,  D.D. 
Other  missionaries  have  given  material  assistance  and  many 
friends  have  co-operated.  The  total  receipts  to  the  credit 
of  the  Korea  Propaganda  Fund  to  date  are  $90,170.42,  and 
the  number  of  new  missionaries  sent  out  during  the  year, 
including  wives,  was  13. 

An  unusual  number  of  visitors  cheered  the  missionaries 
during  the  year.     The  missionaries  write : 

Of  all  the  visits  this  year  from  friends  at  home  that  of  Mr.  L.  H. 
Severance  and  his  companion,  Dr.  Ludlow,  left  the  greatest  impression 
on  the  Mission,  especially  along  educational  lines.  The  impetus  which 
Mr.  Severance  gave  us  will  last  for  years  to  come.  He  came,  as  we 
have  long  wished  that  the  laymen  leaders  of  our  Church  at  home 
might  come,  to  study  our  work  with  us,  help  us  to  see  our  mistakes 
and  to  correct  them;  and  he  stayed  long  enough  to  accomplish  what 
he  came  to  do.  He  did  us  good.  The  visit  of  Mr.  and  Mrs.  D.  B. 
Gamble  was  another  such  blessing.  We  only  wish  we  could  have  seen 
more  of  them.  Their  time  was  limited,  but  they  made  us  feel  their 
sympathy,  and  their  helpfulness  will  long  be  remembered. 

To  the  deep  regret  of  all,  ill  health  prevents  "the  return  to 
Korea  of  Miss  Mary  B.  Barrett. 

The  sudden  and  tragic  death  of  the  Rev.  R.  H.  Sidebotham, 
December  3,  brought  sorrow  to  the  whole  Church.  He  had 
been  indefatigable  in  his  labors  in  connection  with  the  Korea 
Propaganda,  and  was  about  to  return  to  the  field  when  he  was 
fatally  burned  b}^  an  explosion  of  gasoline.  Mr.  Sidebotham 
was  a  man  of  unusual  vigor  of  mind  and  body,  and  a  mis- 
sionary of  marked  devotion  and  success.  His  loss  is  keenly 
felt,  and  the  sympathies  of  a  multitude  of  friends  go  out  to 
the  bereaved  wife  and  the  two  fatherless  children,  as  well  as 
to  Mr.  Sidebotham's  father,  an  honored  and  beloved  member 
of  the  Synod  of  Michigan.

SEOUL  STATION. 

The  year  has  been  an  epochal  one  in  Seoul  Station.  In 
November,  1907,  an  arrangement  for  territorial  division  was 
consummated  with  the  Southern  Methodist  Mission,  b)'  which 
we  surrendered  to  them  all  of  our  work  north  of  Seoul'  and 
all  of  our  rights  in  the  north  two-thirds  of  Kang  Won  Province. 
We  received  in  return  their  groups  and  exclusive  territory 
in  the  country  east  and  west  of  Seoul  in  Kyung  Kye  Province, 
and  the  whole  south  one-third  of  Kang  Won  Province. 

This  arrangement,  desirable  as  it  was  in  every  way,  has  involved  a 
making  over  of  much  of  our  Station  field.  Fully  one-third  of  all  our 
developed  work  in  the  country  was  of  necessity  turned  over  to  the 
Methodists,  and  because  of  that  it  also  became  necessary  to  turn  over 
to  our  own  Chai  Ryung  Station  all  of  our  old-established  churches 
around  Pai  Chun.  In  return  we  received  some  forty  meeting  places 
east  and  southeast  of  Seoul  and  several  places  in  the  counties  west. 
The  groups  received  from  the  Methodists  had  good  members  in  them, 
but  they  were  located  where  the  war  conditions  of  the  last  year  have 
been  most  distressing.  It  had  not  been  possible  for  a  foreigner  to 
visit  them  for  months,  and  scarcely  for  a  Korean  helper  to  do  so. 
Nominally  the  membership  received  was  about  equal  to  the  active 
membership  surrendered,  but  it  was  found  necessary  practically  to 
deduct  60  per  cent,  everyw^here  as  net  loss,  and  our  statistics  this  year 
must  reflect  this  fact. 

This  year  marks  the  final  setting  aside  of  another  section 
of  our  territory,  i.e.,  the  Choong  Chung  Provinces  south  of 
us.  That  work  and  its  statistics  will  hereafter  be  independ- 
ently reported  by  Chong  Ju  Station.  The  first  steps  have 
also  been  taken  toward  setting  apart  yet  another  section  of 
our  territory  for  a  Station  in  Kang  Won  Province  at  Won  Ju. 

It  has  been  the  greatest  year  evangelistically  that  we  have  ever 
had,  for  in  spite  of  the  giving  up  of  such  a  large  part  of  our  territory, 
and  the  separate  reporting  by  Chai  Ryung  and  Chong  Ju  Stations 
of  the  Choong  Chung  and  Pai  Chun  statistics,  which  were  in  our  totals 
last  year,  and  in  spite  of  the  fact  that  no  examinations  have  been  hel 


276  KOREA— SEOUL. 

in  the  new  groups  received  from  the  Methodists,  we  still  report  more 
new  churches,  more  new  communicants,  and  more  contributions  than 
ev.er  before  in  one  year. 

I.  CITY  EVANGELISTIC  WORK.— Sat  Moon  An  Church 
(Messrs.  Reynolds,  Welbon  and  Miller  in  turn  acting  as 
Superintendents). — Baptized  total,  258;  added  during  the 
year,  72;  adherents  total,  1,200;  catechumens,  150;  added 
during  the  year,  94;  offering  U.  S.  gold,  $3,851.83. 

During  the  year  this  people  have  built  on  a  site  provided 
by  themselves  a  building  60  by  80  feet,  seating  1,200,  and  for 
it  they  have  paid  $2,300  gold,  over  two-thirds  of  the  total 
cost.     The  site  cost  $400  additional. 

To  make  a  comparison  with  things  at  home,  using  the  price  of  un- 
skilled labor  in  each  place  as  a  basis  (20  cents  here  and  ■]%  times  as 
much  at  home,  $1.50),  this  equals  over  $20,000  at  home.  Two 
branches  of  the  church  have  flourished  under  a  helper  from  the  home 
church.  Two  helpers  and  five  Bible  women  have  been  fully  supported, 
and  salary  part  of  the  year  has  been  given  to  a  third  helper.  Five 
school-teachers  have  been  supported,  making  a  total  of  i2>^  salaries 
paid  by  the  church.  Two  boys'  schools  and  one  girls'  school  have  been 
maintained;  total  pupils,  140.  The  church  suffered  a  heavy  loss  in  the 
month  of  May  in  the  death  of  their  beloved  Korean  pastor.  Elder  Ko 
Chan  Ik,  a  man  whom  God  had  used  wonderfully  in  winning  the  hearts 
of  the  people. 

The  Central  Church  (C.  A.  Clark,  Superintendent). — 
Baptized  total,  192;  added  during  the  year,  71;  total  ad- 
herents, 660;  catechumens,  96;  added  during  the  year,  90; 
offerings  U.  S.  gold,  $517.47. 

The  Central  Church  has  had  the  best  year  in  its  history, 
gaining  over  50  per  cent,  in  membership  and  fully  50  per  cent. 
in  attendance.  One  Bible  woman  and  one  colporteur  have 
been  employed,  besides  five  school-teachers.  The  book- 
room  at  the  church  has  not  only  become  self-supporting,  but 
is  yielding  a  profit.  Every  fine  of  the  church  work  is  flourish- 
ing, especially  the  work  for  children,  there  being  an  attend- 
ance of  from  120  to  150  children  every  Sabbath.  One  day- 
school  for  boys  and  one  for  girls  have  been  conducted  by  the 
Church,  and  two  other  private  schools  have  been  closely 
affiliated;  total  pupils,  240. 

S.  F.  Moore  Memorial  Chttrch  at  Tongmak  (A.  A.  Pieters, 
Superintendent). — Baptized  total,  48;  added  during  the 
year,  18;  total  adherents,  100;  catechumens,  18;  added 
during  the  year,  18;  offerings  U.  S.  gold,  $iS6.oo. 

This  church  has  steadily  grown  in  numbers  and  still  more 
in  zeal.  The  old  building  early  in  the  year  became  utterly 
inadequate  for  the  congregation  and  was  sold.  In  two  col- 
lections the  people  raised  $150  gold.  They  intended  to  buy 
a  site,  but  were  offered  free  the  site  of  what  had  been  an  old

heathen  temple.     They  are  now  putting  up  a  building  32  by 
32  feet,  to  cost  $300  gold. 

Evangelistic  services  at  the  hospital  have  been  continued  in  charge 
of  Drs.  Avison  and  Hirst.  This  group  has  not  been  set  aside  as  a 
separate  church,  although  all  regular  church  services  are  held,  with  an 
attendance  of  about  100.  A  church  will  have  to  be  organized  there 
before  long. 

A  new  work  has  been  set  aside  outside  the  East  Gate,  centring  in 
the  village  Tolkoji,  and  under  the  pastorate  of  Mr.  E.  H.  Miller.  A 
new  church  is  being  built.  Ten  have  been  baptized,  making  a  member- 
ship of  twenty.  Contributions,  S87  gold.  This  bids  fair  to  become 
a  large  and  important  work. 

II.  COUNTRY  EVANGELISTIC  WORK.— West  of  Seoul 
(A.  G.  Welbon,  Superintendent). — Groups  total,  18;  church 
buildings,  12;  adherents  total,  1,500;  offerings  U.  S.  gold, 
$524.71;  baptized  total,  494;  new  baptisms,  78;  catechumen 
total,  163;  new  catechumens,  100. 

This  district  has  done  very  well,  although  it  too  has  suf- 
fered the  last  two  years  from  frequent  changes  in  superin- 
tendents. The  work  has  expanded  by  the  addition  of  two 
counties.  Pa  Ju  and  Kyo  Wha.  Mr.  Welbon  has  made  two 
trips  through  this  district.  Two  helpers  are  fully  supported 
here. 

South  of  Seoul  (A.  A.  Pieters,  Superintendent). — Groups 
total,  34;  church  buildings,  23;  adherents  total,  800;  oft"er- 
ings  U.  S.  gold,  $721.50;  baptized  total,  272;  new  baptisms, 
182;  catechumen  total,  391;  new  catechumens,  :^:i:^. 

The  work  in  this  district  has  been  carried  on  under  difficulties. 
In  September,  in  addition  to  the  care  of  these  fourteen  counties  and 
Bible  translation,  Mr.  Pieters  was  assigned  the  Mission  Treasurership. 
It  has  been  necessary  to  do  the  country  work  in  many  short  trips 
instead  of  in  one  or  two  long  ones,  and  there  has  been  no  time  for  coun- 
try classes.  Four  new  groups  have  sprung  up,  seven  new  church 
buildings  have  been  built,  and  four  old  ones  enlarged.  The  increase 
in  the  baptized  membership  is  200  per  cent.  Two  men  are  supported 
by  this  people. 

East  of  Seoul  (C.  A.  Clark,  Superintendent). — Groups 
total,  16;  church  buildings,  12;  adherents  total,  400;  offer- 
ings U.  S.  gold,  $493 ;  baptized  total,  77;  new  baptisms, 
40;  catechumen  total,  115;  new  catechumens,  104. 

This  territory  is  largely  new  work,  none  of  it  being  over 
three  years  old.  Every  group  has  made  material  gains; 
twelve  new  ones  have  sprung  up;  ten  new  church  buildings 
have  been  built,  and  for  two  more  material  has  been  gathered; 
seven  day-schools  have  been  started,  all  self-supporting. 
The  support  of  two  helpers  has  been  paid  by  this  people. 

5.  E.  of  Seoul-Kang  Won  Circuit  (C.  A.  Clark,  Superintend- 
ent, assisted  by  Mr.  Welbon). — Groups  total,  35;  church 
buildings,  21;  adherents,  500;  offerings,  $187  gold;  baptized 


278  KOREA— SEOUL. 

total,    60;  new   baptisms,    i;   catechuments   total,    180;  new 
catechumens,   24. 

This  territory,  eleven  counties,  is  largely  composed  of  the 
groups  received  from  the  Southern  Methodists. 

Of  all  the  thirteen  provinces,  this  field  has  suffered  the  most  from 
the  disturbances  the  last  year.  The  helpers  have  exerted  all  their 
influence  to  keep  the  Christians  out  of  the  troubles.  Because  the 
helpers  have  insisted  on  remaining  neutral,  they  have  met  with  great 
persecution,  and  sometimes  for  weeks  at  a  time  have  actually  been 
in  danger  of  their  lives. 

Of  course  the  work  goes  slowly  under  such  conditions,  yet 
the  support  of  three  colporteurs  has  been  taken  by  this  field 
this  year,  ten  new  groups  have  sprung  up,  six  new  church 
buildings  have  been  bought,  and  four  self-supporting  schools 
have  been  opened. 

This  territory,  with  a  few  counties  in  Choong  Chung  and  Kyung 
Sang  Provinces,  is  the  territory  which  is  planned  to  be  set  apart  for 
the  new  Station  in  Kang  Won  Province.  It  is  roughly  130  miles  east 
and  west,  by  fifty  miles  north  and  south.  The  population  is  about 
350,000;  and  it  is  exclusively  our  territory,  no  other  Mission  working 
in  it.  It  is  accessible  by  the  Han  River.  Won  Ju  is  a  city  of  about 
1,000  houses.  It  is  the  old  capital  of  the  province.  Out  from  it  in  all 
directions  radiate  a  number  of  excellent  roads.  North,  east  and  south 
of  the  city  the  country  is  low  rolling  hills,  thickly  dotted  with  vil- 
lages. The  population  of  Won  Ju  County  alone  is  45,425.  It  is  prac- 
tically impossible  to  work  this  country  to  advantage  from  Seoul. 
It  is  fully  250  miles  to  the  far  end  of  it,  and  it  takes  nearly  two  weeks 
to  get  there.  It  is  eighty  miles  to  Won  Ju,  the  centre  of  the  present 
developed  work,  and  it  takes  ten  days  to  reach  the  farthest  groups  now 
existing. 

III.  TRAINING  CLASS  WORK.— The  short-handedness 
of  the  Station  this  year  has  made  the  carrying  on  of  Training 
Class  work  very  difficult,  but  one  has  been  held  in  the  Kang 
Won  Circuit  by  Mr.  Welbon,  and  two  in  the  East  Circuit  by 
Mr.  Clark.  Two  others  were  held  in  the  city,  one  a  general 
class  and  one  for  helpers  only.  The  attendance  at  the  general 
class  was  the  greatest  ever  had  in  Seoul,  about  500.  Mr.  Lee, 
from  Pyeng  Yang,  assisted  the  class,  and  Mr.  Miller  took  Mr. 
Lee's  place  in  Pyeng  Yang  as  an  exchange.  Mr.  Welbon 
assisted  the  Southern  Presbyterians  in  a  class  at  Kunsan  in 
January. 

IV.  WOMAN'S  EVANGELISTIC  WORK.— The  greater 
part  of  the  woman's  itinerating  work  has  been  done  by  Miss 
Wambold,  she  having  spent  a  part  of  each  of  nine  consecu- 
tive months  in  the  country. 

Mrs.  Pieters  has  made  one  trip  and  Mrs.  Clark  two.  In  the  city 
every  woman  has  her  part  in  the  Sunday  services.  Week-day  services 
have    been    taught    by    Mrs.    Pieters,    Miss    Wambold,  Mrs.  Avison, 


KOREA— SEOUL.  279 

Mrs.  Hirst  and  Miss  Heron.  One  regular  large  Bible  class  for 
country  and  city  women  was  held  in  the  city  with  an  enrollment  of 
113,  and  two  local  classes  later  in  the  year.  Mrs.  Pieters  made  one 
visit  to  Chung  Ju  and  one  to  Chai  Ryung  during  the  year,  teaching  in 
classes  for  women  in  each  place.  Mrs.  E.  H.  Miller  helped  in  a  class 
in  Pyeng  Yang  in  March.  Calling  in  the  homes  of  the  Korean  women 
is  one  of  the  most  valuable  parts  of  our  work.  It  has  been  participated 
in  by  Miss  Wambold,  Mrs.  Pieters,  Mrs.  Avison,  Miss  Heron,  Mrs. 
Greenfield  and  Mrs.  Clark 

V.  EDUCATIONAL  WORK.— John  D.  Wells  Training 
School  for  Christian  Workers  (Kyung  Sin  Hakyo). — We  regret 
to  report  that  the  beginning  of  the  school  year  saw  the  disso- 
lution of  the  union  in  work  which  had  been  brought  about  two 
years  ago.  The' Southern  Methodists  wished  to  withdraw 
from  educational  work  in  Seoul  and  concentrate  their  strength 
in  Songdo.  The  Northern  Methodists  wished  to  change  the 
character  of  their  school,  using  English  hereafter  as  the 
medium  of  teaching,  instead  of  the  vernacular;  and  so  we 
were  once  more  thrown  on  our    own  resources. 

Mr.  L.  H.  Severance  came  to  our  aid  just  as  the  financial  problem 
was  most  pressing;  and  through  his  generosity  the  school  has  had  the 
best  year  in  its  history.  The  greater  part  of  the  teaching  by  foreign- 
ers has  been  done  by  Mr.  Miller,  principal  of  the  school.  The  needs 
are  more  teachers,  more  money,  and  more  buildings.  The  total  enroll- 
ment has  been  126.  Five  were  graduated.  Much  progress  has  been 
made  toward  self-support,  every  pupil  pajang  a  matriculation  fee  and 
a  small  tuition.  It  was  not  possible  to  conduct  any  self-help  work 
department  this  j'ear,  but  the  attendance  was  not  much  affected  there- 
by. The  College  Department  was  of  necessity  dropped  this  year  for 
lack  of  teachers  and  money,  but  we  hope  that  the  coming  year  we  shall 
be  able  to  reopen  it. 

Women's  Academy. — This  school  has  taken  a  new  lease  of 
life  this  year.  The  old  Industrial  Department  has  been 
dropped,  and  cash  has  been  charged  for  board  and  tuition. 
There  have  been  no  pupils  whose  parents  or  friends  have  not 
paid  the  full  charge  asked. 

The  school  has  taken  in  all  the  pupils  that  the  buildings  could 
hold,  and  many  were  turned  away.  The  enrollment  was  fifty-eight, 
as  against  thirty-nine  last  year,  and  twenty-six  the  year  before.  Of 
these  eighteen  were  young  married  women  or  widows.  Five  girls 
were  graduated,  and  the  graduation  exercises  were  a  marked  event  in 
the  educational  life  of  the  city.  Next  year  it  is  hoped  that  two  new 
departments  of  the  work  may  be  pushed,  a  music  department  and  a 
Bible  women's  department.  Rates  are  to  be  raised  to  cover  the  extra 
cost  of  maintaining  so  many  buildings.  The  bulk  of  the  work  of  the 
school  has  been  carried  by  Mrs.  E.  H. "Miller,  but  Miss  Heron  has  taught 
regularly,  and  Mrs.  Pieters  and  Miss  Wambold  and  others  have 
assisted  when  possible.  The  great  needs  of  the  school  are  more  build- 
ings, as  the  present  ones  are  full  to  overflowing. 

Primary  Schools. — Twelve  primary  schools  were  opened 
during  the  year,  making  a  total  of  thirt}' -one,  with  an  enroll-

ment  of  7S2.  A  departure  in  primary  schools  has  been  the 
boarding  department  in  connection  with  the  Central  Church 
School.     Six  girls  were  in  this  department. 

Nortnal  Schools. — A  normal  class  was  held  in  August  for 
two  weeks,  with  an  attendance  of  ten.  Next  year  more  will 
be  made  of  this  department.

VI.  MEDICAL  VJO'RK.— Severance  Hospital  (O.  R.  Avi- 
son  M.D.,  Superintendent;  Dr.  J.  W.  Hirst,  M.D.,  Assistant 
Superintendent) . — 

The  work  of  the  year  in  and  about  the  Severance  Hospital  has  grown 
to  such  proportions  that  one  can  barely  do  more  in  a  report  of  this  size 
than  enumerate  the  departments  carried  on.  They  are  as  follows: 
(i)  Native  Medical  and  Surgical  Practice;  (2)  Native  Dispensary 
Work;  (3)  Native  Private  Office  Consultations;  (4)  Native  Home 
Visitation  Work;  (5)  Foreign  Medical  and  Surgical  Practice;  (6) 
Foreign  Office  Consultations;  (7)  Foreign  Home  Visitations;  (8) 
Pasteur  Institute;  (9)  Contagious  Diseases;  (10)  Optical  Depart-

The  ward  practice  of  the  hospital  this  year  has  increased  43  per 
cent,  over  last  year.  Medical  cases  numbered  316,  surgical  332,  and 
obstetrical  7,  a  total  of  655. 

The  dispensary  has  been  conducted  in  the  basement  as  heretofore. 
The  number  of  treatments  this  year  is  slightly  less  than  last  year, 
but  the  number  of  new  cases  was  much  greater.  There  were  5674 
new  cases,  3,638  return  cases,  and  1,241  minor  operations  performed 
in  the  dispensary. 

The  visiting  of  Korean  patients  in  their  homes  has  heretofore  been 
discouraged,  on  account  of  the  inability  of  the  physicians  to  give  the 
time  to  it.  This  year,  with  the  graduating  medical  students  to  assist, 
much  more  has  been  done. 

The  foreign  practice  of  the  hospital  is  necessarily  very  large,  totaling 
657  office  consultations  and  605  outside  visits;  and  besides  this  a 
number  of  patients  have  been  received  in  the  wards.  The  doctors 
feel  their  lack  of  equipment  to  care  for  this  foreign  ward  practice, 
there  being  no  arrangement  for  preparing  foreign  food  or  for  isolating 
the  patients  from  the  Koreans,  and  they  desire  very  much  that  the

matter  of  sanitarium  be  taken  up  in  connection  with  the  future  work 
of  the  hospital. 

The  Pasteur  Department  this  year  has  treated  seven  persons  bitten 
by  mad  dogs. 

The  Medical  College  connected  with  the  hospital  has  rounded 
out  a  unique  period  in  its  history  by  graduating,  on  June  3, 
its  first  class,  conferring  on  them  the  degree  of  Doctor  of 
Medicine  and  Surgery.  This  was  the  culmination  of  fifteen 
years'  work  by  Dr.  Avison,  and  is  something  of  which  the 
whole  Mission  can  be  proud.  These  graduates  have  had  excep- 
tional opportunities  for  practical  work.  Some  of  them  had 
before  graduation  successfully  performed  major  operations 
in  surgery,  and  all  of  them  had  done  every  kind  of  minor 
surgery.  The  commencement  was  an  event  in  the  city,  and 
of  great  importance  in  the  progress  of  modern  civilization  in 
Korea.  Representatives  of  the  royal  family,  the  Resident 
General  and  his  staff,  and  numbers  of  other  prominent  people, 
including  the  foreign  diplomats,  attended  the  graduating 
exercises.  The  Government  formally  recognized  the  value  of 
the  work  done  by  presenting  to  the  graduates  Government 
certificates,  the  first  of  the  kind  issued  in  Korea.  This  act 
gives  the  doctors  a  recognized  standing  in  the  country.  Prince 
Ito,  the  Resident  General,  gave  public  expression  of  his 
appreciation  of  the  work  done,  and  presented  each  graduate 
with  his  medical  college  diploma. 

In  the  School  for  Nurses,  Miss  Shields  has  had  seven  pupils. 
June  12,  capping  exercises  were  held  for  them  and  five  received 
their  caps.  In  March,  Miss  Shields  participated  in  the  organ- 
izing of  the  Graduate  Nurses'  Association  of  Korea,  whose 
object  is  to  "advance  the  profession,  and  to  learn  the  best 
ways  of  doing  effective  work  in  Korea." 

Financially  the  hospital  has  had  the  greatest  year  in  its  history. 
Although  no  money  was  received  from  the  Government,  the  total 
receipts  were  $9,344.35  U.  S.  gold,  an  increase  of  50  per  cent,  over  last 
3^ear.  No  money  was  received  from  the  Board  except  the  salaries  of 
the  foreign  staff,  the  hospital  evangelist  and  Dr.  Hirst's  language 
teacher. 

In  May,  Miss  Burpee  came  to  work  among  the  foreign  community 
as  a  private  trained  nurse  and  to  assist  in  the  hospital;  Miss  Babcock, 
who  had  been  in  this  service,  having  gone  home  in  April. 

VII.  LITERARY  WORK.— Dr.  Gale  has  acted  as  editor 
of  the  Church  Herald,  has  worked  all  the  year  on  the  Korean- 
English  Dictionary,  and  has  spent  much  time  on  Bible  trans- 
lation, besides  reading  proof  for  the  Tract  Society's  publications. 
Mr.  Pieters  spent  part  of  one  month  on  Bible  translation. 
Mr.  E.  H.  Miller  reports  progress  on  the  Intermediate  Arith- 
metic, and  that  he  is  reading  proof  on  a  Harmony  of  the 
Gospels.     Mrs.    Pieters    has    revised    her    Arithmetic.     Mrs.

E.  H.  Miller  has  translated  a  Primary  Geography.  Dr. 
Avison  has  completed  an  Advanced  Physiology,  and  reports 
progress  on  a  Surgery,  Practice  of  Medicine,  and  a  Medical 
Dictionary.  Mr.  C.  A.  Clark  has  several  times  revised  the

and  has  translated  part  of  a  Commentary  on  Matthew  and 
most  of  Dr.  Martin's  "Evidences  of  Christianity." 

FUSAN  STATION. 

In  spite  of  the  fact  that  the  furlough  of  Mr.  Sidebotham 
left  only  two  families  at  the  Station,  the  growth  of  the  year 
has  been  most  encouraging,  no  less  than  1,019  catechumens 
being  admitted.  We  have  not  had  any  serious  disturbances 
within  the  Church,  but  many  things  have  had  to  go  by 
default,  particularly  special  class  instruction  and  timely 
discipline. 

As  the  visits  of  the  missionary  have  become  less  frequent,  the  in- 
fluence of  the  helpers  has  increased.  Thej^  have  proven  themselves 
qualified  to  meet  the  demands,  and  not  only  are  the  individual  churches 
being  educated  to  -welcome  the  services  of  native  pastors,  but  the 
men  are  being  raised  up  who  will  eventually  be  called  upon  to  be  the 
responsible  shepherds  of  their  flocks. 

EVANGELISTIC  WORK.— i.  Miryang  County,  larger, 
more  populous,  and  in  wealth  far  outstripping  any  other 
county  in  the  province,  has  not  only  continued  in  the  front 
rank  among  our  churches,  but  has  shown  far  greater  advances 
this  year  than  any  other  county. 

Last  year  there  were  196  catechumens  admitted  and  this  j'ear  443 
have  been  admitted,  a  gain  of  about  200  per  cent. 

Last  year  fifty-three  were  baptized,  this  year  117;  there  were  121 
communicants  last  year,  this  year  229,  which  would  have  been  greatly 
increased  if  the  missionary  had  been  able  to  visit  the  groups  again,  or 
if  Bible  women  could  give  some  time  to  instructing  the  faithful  but 
ignorant  women.  Last  year  there  were  twelve  groups,  this  year 
eighteen;  though  as  a  number  of  these  are  in  reality  plural  groups, 
twenty-one  would  more  exactly  represent  the  real  number. 

All  of  the  new  groups  have  either  erected  new  buildings  or  purchased 
and  repaired  old  buildings.  A  number  of  old  groups  have  both  en- 
larged and  improved  the  appearance  of  their  meeting  places. 

Educational  work  has  also  advanced.  Two  or  three  new 
schools  have  been  started  and  old  schools  improved.  One 
in  particular,  located  at  Chung  Key,  has  made  great  progress. 
Twenty-nine  boys  and  thirteen  girls  have  attended  in  separate 
institutions. 

The  helper  working  among  most  of  the  churches  of  the  county,  an 
elder,  will  probably  be  entirely  supported  by  native  funds  this  year. 
One  well-to-do  brother  in  the  county-seat,  in  addition  to  large  help 


KOREA— FUSAN.  283 

in  the  local  work  and  throughout  the  county,  has  given  $250  gold 
toward  the  Girls'  School  in  Fusan. 

Kim  Hai  County  has  done  much  better  even  than  the  statistics 
indicate.  The  helper  who  travels  most  widely  in  this  county  having 
been  in  the  Theological  Seminary  for  three  months,  superintendence 
has  not  been  close,  and  many  waiting  catechumens  have  not  been 
admitted  or  new  groups  organized. 

Tong  Nai  County  has  been  enlarged  territorially  and  our  work  has 
grown.  At  Koopo,  a  river  port  newly  attached  to  this  county,  we 
have  a  group  of  some  thirty  or  forty  people  housed  in  a  comfortable 
building.  In  the  county-seat  there  is  now  a  flourishing  group,  with  an 
attendance  of  over  100.  Two  or  three  other  places  have  somewhat 
disappointed  our  hopes  and  have  as  yet  not  been  organized  into  groups. 
One  place  is  a  tiny  island  in  front  of  the  local  port,  with  but  fourteen 
houses,  most  of  which  have  made  some  profession  of  religion. 

The  Deer  Island  congregation  has  grown  most  handsomelj',  and 
now  threatens  the  primacy  of  the  local  church. 

Special  efforts  have  been  made  by  the  local  Church  to  reach  non- 
Christians  through  a  class  in  English  and  a  men's  society,  which  though 
quite  successful  in  their  way  have  not  yet  produced  much  of  the 
desired  fruit. 

Mrs.  Irvin  has  given  much  of  her  time  to  the  Sunday-school, 
with  large  classes  of  both  infants  and  adults.  The  church 
will  shortly  elect  two  elders.  Three  leaders  have  practically 
been  doing  the  work  of  elders  throughout  the  year. 

Through  the  growth  of  the  port  the  Korean  population  also  increases, 
though  the  nature  of  employment — political  positions,  inn-keeping, 
and  day-labor — in  addition  to  other  worldly  influences  at  work  in 
a  port,  make  it  necessary  that  the  Station  be  equipped  for  effective 
work.  The  floating  population  is  also  great;  and  while  we  cannot 
retain  such  members  permanently  on  our  rolls,  the  influence  is  good 
and  wide. 

In  Chan  Won  County,  where  the  church  had  not  grown  much,  the 
rise  of  some  new  groups  in  close  proximity  to  each  other  has  given 
opportunity  for  holding  union  services  in  several  localities.  This 
seems  to  have  made  the  desired  impression.  Many  new  people  have 
come  in  and  prospects  for  future  growth  are  excellent.  There  were 
some  250  people  at  these  meetings.  They  awakened  the  desire  to 
perpetuate  this  union,  and  to  build  a  large  church  in  some  central 
location  and  develop  a  united  congregation.  This  is  a  big  burden, 
as  they  must  continue  to  support  their  local  buildings  for  prayer 
meetings  and  other  services. 

Ku  Chang  and  Hap  Chun,  our  most  extreme  counties  with 
established  work,  have  made  gratifying  progress,  notwith- 
standing perplexing  political  conditions  and  our  inability 
to  provide  them  proper  oversight. 

Ku  Chang  now  ranks  fifth  in  the  counties  having  developed  work. 
Two  new  groups  are  reported  in  Ham  Yang  County,  the  most  distant 
of  all,  and  one  in  Anwe,  the  extreine  northwestern  county,  bordering  on 
the  North  ChuUa  Province.  There  has  been  considerable  of  an  uprising 
in  these  parts,  making  travel  unsafe,  and  some  colporteurs  have  been 
molested.  Besides  being  so  distant  from  other  developed  work, 
superintendence  by  a  regular  helper,  whose  guidance  they  require 
even  more  than  a  long  established  congregation,  is  difficult  and 
expensive. 


284  KOREA— FUS  AN. 

About  twenty  new  meeting  places  in  all  have  been  pro- 
vided this  year,  and  while  they  are  not  elegant,  when  we  con- 
sider how  few  Christians  there  may  be  in  a  group,  or  their 
place  in  society,  one  city  group  having  been  composed  for  a 
long  time  of  a  few  boys,  it  is  proof  of  their  genuine  interest 
and  a  guarantee  of  better  things  as  soon  as  they  are  able. 

MEDICAL  WORK.— Jtmkin  Memorial  Hospital.— Dr. 
Irvin  writes: 

Ten  thoitsand  crossed  our  threshold  this  year,  seeking  relief  from  all 
sorts  of  afflictions,  from  itch  to  cholera,  and  from  a  cracked  com  to  a 
cracked  skull.  Many  of  them  covered  long  distances  and  endured 
increased  suffering  while  making  the  journey  in  search  of  help.  Some 
were  able  to  secure  all  the  comfort  that  could  be  had  for  such  a  journey, 
while  to  others  the  trip  involved  great  privations  through  lack  of  food 
and  shelter. 

Being  here  in  the  name  of  the  Master,  this  latter  class  holds  a  greater 
claim  on  us  than  their  more  fortunate  fellow-sufferers,  and  the  physi- 
cian who  is  not  a  disgrace  to  his  high  calling  does  not  demand  imprac- 
ticable fees  when  confronted  by  such  worthy  objects  of  charity. 
Patients  who  are  able  to  pay,  however,  are  required  to  do  so,  and  $900 
gold  were  received  in  this  way  during  the  year. 

In  evangelistic  work  no  lack  of  zeal  has  been  shown.  The  Junkin 
Memorial  Hospital  and  the  Mary  Collins  Whiting  Dispensary  are 
medical-evangelistic  worksjiops  where  neither  soul  nor  body  escapes 
needed  care,  and  while  we  do  not  claim  always  to  rescue  the  body 
from  physical  affliction,  \ve  do  claim  that  the  remedy  for  spiritual 
ills,  if  taken  as  directed,  is  infallible. 

EDUCATIONAL  WORK.— Two  classes  have  been  held  for 
helpers  and  colporteurs. 

Though  supposed  to  be  a  triple  union  of  Taiku,  the  Australian  Mis- 
sion and  ourselves,  the  class  through  a  misunderstanding  included  only 
the  Australians  and  ourselves,  and  Mr.  Engel  being  unable  to  assist 
because  of  illness,  the  conduct  of  the  class  was  most  difficult.  With 
the  prospect  of  a  larger  number  of  qualified  men  on  the  field  the  coming 
year,  the  class  should  exceed  in  rich  results  any  of  our  past  efforts. 

The  conduct  of  the  annual  Bible  class  for  men  was  a  matter  for 
grave  concern,  with  only  one  clergyman  in  the  Station  and  probably 
over  600  to  be  instructed.  As  a  consequence  we  were  obliged  to 
depend  more  largely  than  ever  on  the  native  helpers  and  colporteurs. 
This  class  was  held,  as  in  the  past,  at  Kim  Hai,  taxing  the  generosity 
of  that  always  kindly  host  almost  to  the  utmost. 

The  class  was  attended  by  over  500  from  a  distance,  and 
among  them  was  a  large  proportion  from  the  most  outlying 
regions  of  our  work.     A  number  came  100  miles  to  attend. 

As  yet  we  lack  accommodations  in  any  one  place  for  the  large  and 
constantly  augmenting  numbers  who  care  to  attend  our  classes,  and 
until  such  time  as  such  accommodations  are  provided  we  shall  prob- 
ably have  to  hold  two  separate  classes,  both  of  them  far  from  the 
homes  of  the  missionaries. 

Had  it  not  been  that  Mrs.  Irwin  found  herself  free  at  that  time  to 
help,  the  classes  for  women  would  have  been  more  than  ever  neglected. 


KOREA— PYENG  YANG.  285 

She,  with  some  young  ladies  whom  she  has  had  under  instruction  more 
or  less  for  a  number  of  years,  conducted  a  well-attended  class  at  Mir- 
yang  for  a  week,  while'  Mr.  Smith,  assisted  by  a  helper  and  a  Bible 
woman,  conducted  contemporaneously  a  similar  class  at  Yung  Dong. 
The  interest  in  both  classes  was  maintained  to  the  end. 

The  number  of  primary  schools  has  increased  among  the 
churches,  and  though  the  people  are  painfully  poor,  through 
a  wise  co-operation  and  mutual  effort  they  have  done  all  they 
could  to  improve  the  quality  of  the  instruction  offered. 

A  new  building  for  a  boarding  school  for  girls  has  been 
kindly  provided  by  the  gifts  of  Messrs.  Severance,  Gamble 
and  a  Korean,  Mr.  Ho,  and  will  be  ready  for  occupancy  in 
the  early  Fall.  Mrs.  Irvin  has  already  spent  some  months 
in  strenuous  efforts  to  equip  her  three  Korean  assistants, 
and  we  have  every  prospect  of  being  able  to  supply  a  long- 
felt  need. 

PYENG  YANG  STATION. 

The  influence  of  last  year's  wonderful  outpouring  of  the 
Spirit  has  continued.  This  year  2,206  baptisms  are  reported, 
while  1,106  were  reported  last  year. 

It  has  been  a  period  of  struggle  with  difficult  problems 
growing  out  of  changing  conditions  in  the  country,  and  con- 
sequent unrest  among  the  people,  and  constant  prayer  has 
been  made  that  God  would  keep  the  Church  true  to  its  first 
ideals. 

If  one  thing  has  caused  more  anxiety  than  another  it  has  been  the 
difficulty  of  keeping  the  Church,  and  particularly  the  church  schools, 
free  from  political  agitation.  If  one  thing  has  caused  more  joy  and 
thanksgiving  than  another,  it  has  been  the  steadfast  loyalty  and  dis- 
interested service  of  the  leaders  of  the  Church  in  conditions  that  might 
easily  disturb  men  of  much  longer  experience. 

Dr.  and  Mrs.  Baird  and  Miss  Snook  left  on  furlough  in  June,  leaving 
our  educational  force  for  next  3''ear  sadly  crippled. 

Dr.  and  Mrs.  Moffett  were  joj-fuUy  welcomed  back  in  August,  1907, 
bringing  with  them  Miss  Strang,  who  has  rendered  invaluable  service 
in  the  foreign  school.  Miss  Butts  was  assigned  to  our  Station  at 
annual  meeting  and  Mr.  McMurtrie  reached  us  Christmas  Eve.  Both 
have  already  come  to  seem  indispensable  to  the  Station  life. 

EVANGELISTIC  WORK  IN  THE  CITY.— This  shows 
another  year  of  steady  gain. 

In  the  Central  Church  the  congregation  is  so  large,  about 
2,500,  that  the  men  and  women  are  compelled  to  have  separ- 
ate services.  Three  new  elders  were  recently  ordained. 
The  installation  of  Pastor  Kil  took  place  last  October.  This 
was  the  first  service  of  its  kind  in  the  Presbyterian  Church 
in  Korea,  and  it  marks  an  epoch  in  the  growth  of  our  work. 
Mr.  Kil  has  proved  his  capacity  as  an  ordained  minister. 


28fi  KOREA— PYENG  YANG. 

The  South  Gate  Church,  in  charge  of  Mr.  Swallen,  has  held  its  own 
in  spite  of  changes  in  population  due  to  the  coming  of  Japanese.  The 
congregation  remains  about  the  same,  500. 

In  the  North  Church,  Mr.  Blair  in  charge,  the  year  has  been  one  of 
testing  due  to  a  long-standing  quarrel  between  a  deacon  and  a  leader. 
The  quarrel  resulted  in  the  withdrawal  of  one  from  the  church,  and  the 
removal  from  office  of  the  other.  New  men  have  come  to  the  front, 
and  the  church  to-day  appears  to  be  rapidly  recovering. 

The  Fourth  Church,  Mr.  Bemheisel  in  charge,  is  the  youngest  of 
the  swarms  sent  off  from  the  Central  Church,  and  has  had  a  year  of 
progress.  The  new  building,  costing  $1,100,  was  first  occupied  Sep- 
tember I.  The  congregation  averages  400.  Two  elders  were  ordained 
during  the  year. 

Special  mention  should  be  made  of  the  women  in  the  city. 
Sunday  mornings  the  Central  Church  women  are  divided  into 
three  Sunday-schools,  which  have  been  led  by  Miss  Best,  Mrs. 
Lee,  Mrs.  Baird,  Mrs.  McCune  and  Mrs.  Moffett.  In  each  of 
the  other  churches  the  missionary  in  charge  has  had  the 
woman's  Sunday-school,  and  conducted  week-day  Bible 
classes. 

A  new  feature  of  this  year's  work  is  the  Korean  Woman's  Home 
Missionary  Society,  organized  by  the  union  Session  of  the  four  city 
churches.  The  Society  has  two  women  em. ployed  to  work  in  non- 
Christian  villages  in  Pyeng  Yang  territory,  and  these  are  assisted  by 
others  who  go  with  them,  receiving  only  their  expenses. 

The  work  of  the  Library  Association  has  been  largely  under  Korean 
control.  A  college  student  has  acted  as  secretary,  and  has  made  the 
library  very  popular.  There  are  now  about  900  books,  which  are  in 
constant  demand.  The  night-school  has  been  well  attended  and  has 
graduated  a  class  of  four  men. 

EVANGELISTIC    WORK    IN    THE    COUNTRY.— The 

country  work  under  direction  of  this  Station  consists  of  seven 
circuits  in  charge  of  missionaries,  including  three  Korean 
pastoral  charges.  There  are  thirty-nine  helpers  supported 
by  the  churches  where  they  labor,  and  196  unpaid  leaders, 
who,  in  the  absence  of  the  helper,  preach  and  look  after  the 
needs  of  the  people. 

The  Christians  have  continued  to  make  good  progress  in  numbers, 
in  knowledge,  and  in  spiritual  life,  as  is  manifested  in  the  development 
of  Christian  character,  activity  in  personal  work,  and  earnestness  in 
Bible  study. 

In  one  circuit,  when  a  special  effort  was  made  during  the  New  Year 
season  to  reach  an  unevangelized  territory,  forty-five  men  yolim- 
tarily  gave  themselves  up  to  prayer  and  direct  personal  preaching  for 
ten  days  at  their  own  expense.  This  resulted  in  many  being  led  to 
Christ  and  new  groups  being  formed  in  a  section  where  the  Gospel  had 
not  previously  taken  hold.  It  also  proved  a  great  stimulus  to  the 
whole  Church  in  that  region. 

In  another  circuit  some  of  the  Christians  thought  the  tithe  was 
not  enough  to  show  their  gratitude  to  God  for  what  He  had  given  them,^ 
so  they  sold  their  rice  and  bought  millet  to  eat,  in  order  that  they 
might  have  more  to  give  to  the  Lord's  work. 


KOREA— PYENG  YANG.

In  some  parts  the  larger  churches  are  ambitious  to  support  their 
own  helpers.  They  are  given  permission  to  do  so,  as  a  rule,  only  after 
they  are  able  and  willing  to  contribute  a  tenth  of  their  own  helper's 
salary  to  aid  the  work  of  the  weaker  groups. 

The  work  in  charge  of  the  three  Korean  pastors  has  kept 
pace  with  the  rest.  Each  pastor  has  proved  himself  a  worthy 
accession  to  the  ministerial  force  in  Korea.  Of  the  total 
number  of  baptisms  reported,  20S  were  by  these  men. 

Throughout  Pyeng  Yang  Station's  territory  the  Korean 
Christians  have  worked  faithfully;  and  as  a  result  of  their 
zeal  and  consecrated  wisdom  we  have  a  strong,  active,  grow- 
ing church.  The  following  table  gives  a  bird's-eye  view  of 
the  whole  work  in  the  city  and  country.  •

Men's  Bible  Training  Classes. — Men's  Bible  Training 
Classes  continue  to  be  an  important  feature  of  the  work  of 
the  Station.  The  object  is  to  have  at  least  one  such  class 
in  every  church  each  year. 

The  way  the  Christians  lay  aside  their  work  and  attend  these  classes 
for  Bible  study  is  a  constant  wonder  and  delight.  Those  who  study 
bear  their  own  expenses;  and  in  the  city  we  assess  each  student  a 
small  amount  to  pay  the  running  expenses  of  the  class. 


288  KOREA— PYENG  YANG. 

The  Winter  class  in  the  city  was  attended  by  about  goo  men  from 
all  parts  of  the  province.  Wniie  there  was  none  of  that  terrible  con- 
viction and  confession  of  sin  of  the  year  before,  it  was  a  time  of  deep 
consecration  to  the  Master's  service.  The  after-effects  were  very 
evident  in  the  country  churches. 

At  the  Korean  New  Year,  we  always  hold  a  class  for  local  men  only. 
Direct  evangelistic  efforts  are  then  made  for  unbelievers;. and  this 
year,  as  before,  several  hundred  made  public  confession  of  Christ. 

One  of  the  most  important  classes  of  the  year  is  that  for 
church  officers  in  June.  This  year  there  were  more  than  250 
from  all  parts  of  the  province.  Altogether  there  have  been 
held  151  classes  for  men  in  the  country  churches,  attended 
by  6,^75  persons.  The  three  city  classes  were  attended  by 
about  1,500  persons. 

Women's  Bible  Training  Classes. — A  large  number  of 
Bible  classes  have  been  held  during  the  3^ear  under  the  super- 
vision of  the  native  churches.  This  report  concerns  only 
those  held  under  the  direction  of  the  Training  Class  Commit- 
tee. Eighty-nine  such  classes  have  been  held  during  the 
year.  Of  these  ten  were  held  in  country  churches  by  the  mis- 
sionary women,  and  were  attended  by  721  women.  Seventy- 
five  were  held  by  Korean  women,  sent  out  two  by  two  from 
our  Workers'  Class  especially  to  the  newer  groups  of  Chris- 
tian women  in  the  country  circuits,  and  were  attended  by 
2,248  women. 

Four  classes  were  held  in  Pyeng  Yang,  taught  by  all  the 
women  of  the  Station  and  by  Korean  helpers,  and  were  at- 
tended by  1,163  women.  This  makes  the  total  number  in  at- 
tendance 4,132.  The  schedule  of  Bible  classes  and  practical 
talks  on  hygiene,  Sunday  observance,  etc.,  is  designed  to 
harmonize  with  our  regular  course  of  study  in  our  local  class 
for  country  women. 

The  four  classes  in  Pj'eng  Yang  consist  of  two  distinct  kinds: 
First,  two  general  classes,  one,  for  a  week,  )pen  to  all  the  women  of 
the  city  churches,  and  one,  for  twelve  days,l  open  to  all  the  women  of 
the  country  churches.  Second,  two  special  classes,  one  a  workers'  class 
for  tv.'o  weeks  in  the  early  Fall,  open  only  to  a  limited  number  of  Bible 
women  and  others  selected  by  the  missionaries,  and  who  are  instructed 
in  the  schedule  of  studies  taught  by  them  in  the  country  classes  during 
the  year.  The  other,  a  special  class,  open  only  to  women  especially 
invited  by  missionaries  and  their  helpers,  and  by  the  Korean  pastors, 
with  a  view  to  their  better  instruction  and  training  to  act  as  Bible 
women,  pastor's  assistants,  and  Sabbath-school  teachers. 

The  classes  all  bear  a  close  relation  to  each  other  and  to  all  our 
woman's  work.  The  strength  of  the  work  lies  in  its  unity  and  the 
hearty  co-operation  of  all  the  missionaries  and  native  helpers  with 
Miss  Best,  together  with  the  rich  blessing  of  God  who  said,  "My  Word 
shall  not  return  unto  me  void. "  We  were  thankful  for  the  assistance 
of  Mrs.  E.  H.  Miller,  of  Seoul,  and  Miss  Samuels,  of  Syen  Chyun. 

The  generous  gifts  of  Mrs.  Borden  and  Mr.  Crowell,  of  Chicago,  of 
$4,500  for  a  plant  for  Woman's  Work  in  Pyeng  Yang  gives  a  beautiful 
and  commodious  building  erected  by  Mr.   Blair.     It  has  two  class- 


KOREA— PYEXG  YAXG.  289 

rooms  and  an  office  in  the  lower  story,  and  three  classrooms  above 
which  can  be  thrown  together  into  a  chapel  seating  650  people.  The 
old  schoolrooms  have  been  repaired  and  fitted  up  as  dormitories. 

The  training  class  system,  with  its  activities  reaching  far 
afield,  is  now  called  "The  Woman's  Bible  Institute  of  Pyeng 
Yang. " 

EDUCATIONAL  WORK.— College  and  Academies.— The 
total  enrollment  for  the  college  and  academy  in  Pyeng  Yang 
for  the  year  was  441,  of  whom  19  were  in  the  college  and  422 
in  the  academy. 

Eighty-three  were  Methodists  and  197  were  Presbyterians.  The 
falling  off  in  attendance  was  due  mainly  to  the  fact  that  a  number  of 
the  students  became  discontented  and  wanted  to  study  other  things 
than  the  subjects  taught;  and  as  the  new  students  outnumbered  the 
old,  it  was  difficult  to  maintain  order  and  discipline.  Then,  as  Mr. 
Becker  said  in  his  report  to  this  Mission:  "Denominational  differences 
were  raked  up  and  magnified  by  a  few,  and  it  was  not  long  before  all 
the  Methodists  struck  in  a  body  for  a  separate  school." 

The  facult3^  however,  remained  firm,  and  the  best  of  the  students 
returned  and  settled  down  to  work,  having  learned  that  they  were 
not  running  the  school.  Presbyterian  students  were  in  attendance 
from  all  over  our  Station's  territory,  also  from  that  of  Syen  Chyun 
and  Chai  Ryung  of  our  own  IMission,  from  the  Southern  Presbyterian 
in  the  south  and  the  Canadian  Presbyterian  in  the  northeast.  The 
whole  school  was  taught  in  sixteen  sections,  making  an  average  of 
112  hours  per  week  taught  by  foreigners.  Besides  the  foreign  force, 
there  were  twenty  Korean  teachers  and  instructors  who  aggregated 
330  hours  per  week. 

The  courses  compare  well  with  the  colleges  and  academies  at  home. 
Chinese,  Japanese  and  English  take  the  place  of  French,  Latin  and 
Greek.  Those  who  gave  full  time  in  teaching  were  Dr.  and  Mrs. 
Baird  and  Mr.  McCune  of  our  Mission  and  Mr.  Becker  of  the  Metho- 
dist Mission;  Dr.  Baird  being  President;  others  were  taken  out  of 
evangelistic  work  for  a  few  weeks  each.  All  this  work  is  carried  on  in 
two  buildings,  one  furnished  by  the  Methodists  and  one  by  us. 

The  first  graduating  exercises  of  the  college  were  held  in 
May  and  two  men  received  diplomas.  Twenty-one  were 
graduated  from  the  academy  at  the  same  time,  making  a 
total  of  fifty-nine  since  the  first  class  of  1904.  There  is  also 
another  academy  in  Whang  Ju,  with  an  attendance  of  sixty, 
taught  by  Koreans.  Plans  are  made  for  starting  two  more 
this  Fall,  one  at  Cha  San  and  one  at  Pan  Suk. 

Pyeng  Yang  Seminary  for  Women. — This  seminary,  of 
which  Miss  Snook  is  Principal,  opened  October  5,  1907,  and 
continued  until  January  30,  1908.  One  hundred  and  fifty 
were  enrolled,  thirty-three  of  whom  were  Methodists  and  117 
Presbyterians.  There  were  thirty-eight  girls  in  the  Presby- 
terian boarding  department,  under  the  direction  of  Mrs.  Lee. 

This  department  is  self-supporting,  and  conducted  on  the  plan  of  a

model  Korean  home.  The  purpose  is  not  to  foreignize  the  students, 
but  to  improve  their  own  environment. 

The  girls  took  turns  in  cooking,  sweeping,  dusting,  etc.  In  this 
way  they  were  taught  that  it  was  possible  to  keep  a  Korean  house 
clean;  and  many  a  girl  who  came  to  the  school  with  untidy  habits 
has  gone  back  to  her  home  an  object  lesson  of  neatness  to  her  neighbors. 

Every  girl  learned  how  to  knit,  and  every  spare  moment  out  of  study 
hours  was  spent  in  knitting,  sewing  and  embroidery.  It  was  a  pleas- 
ure to  go  during  the  evening  and  find  a  busy  happy  circle  gathered 
around  the  lamp. 

May  27,  the  graduating  exercises  of  the  first  class  to  complete  the 
course  were  held.  There  were  five  in  the  class,  all  of  whom  have 
done  faithful  work  throughout  the  course,  and  to-day  are  modest, 
sincere.  Christian  women.  The  desire  for  education  on  the  part  of 
Korean  women  is  growing  rapidly,  as  is  shown  by  the  fact  that  while 
there  were  eighty-two  in  attendance  last  year,  there  were  150  this  year. 
At  this  rate  of  increase  we  must  have  more  buildings  and  equipment. 

Normal  Classes. — The  Union  Normal  Class  for  Women, 
of  which  Miss  Snook  of  our  Mission  and  Miss  Haynes  of  the 
Methodist  Mission  were  in  charge,  was  held  in  April.  The 
enrollment  of  ninety-five  is  not  much  larger  than  last  year 
because  of  a  more  careful  selection.  We  had  four  classes, 
each  of  which  studied  Bible,  Chinese,  arithmetic  and  geog- 
raphy. Besides  these,  there  were  practical  talks  given  on 
hygiene  and  various  other  subjects. 

The  Union  Normal  Class  for  Men,  in  charge  of  Mr.  McCune 
and  Mr.  Becker,  was  held  in  June,  with  an  attendance  of  172, 
of  whom  141  were  Presbyterians.  The  attendance  is  smaller, 
because  the  class  was  held  earlier  this  year,  and  also  because 
Chai  Ryung  had  a  class  of  its  own,  which  was  not  the  case 
last  year. 

A  curriculum  has  been  outlined,  covering  seven  years'  work,  and  so 
arranged  that  a  teacher  can  study  while  teaching,  and  by  taking 
examinations  enter  a  more  advanced  division  at  the  next  Normal 
Class.  In  this  way  the  whole  seven  years'  course  can  be  completed  in 
a  much  shorter  time.  Throughout  the  class  the  teachers  in  attend- 
ance were  treated  as  pupils,  and  thus  were  given  a  practical  example 
in  school  government  and  discipline.  Special  emphasis  was  given 
to  the  spiritual  development  of  the  teachers.  All  except  ten  received 
certificates  for  remaining  throughout  the  term  and  taking  the  exami- 
nations. 

Entrance  fees  were  charged  for  both  the  men's  and  women's  classes. 

Boys'  Blind  School. — This  school,  under  the  direction  of 
Mrs.  Moffett,  has  closed  its  fifth  year.  The  attendance  was 
seven.     The  chief  time  was  given  to  the  New  Testament. 

Woman's  School. — This  school,  under  the  direction  of  Mrs. 
Wells,  provides  for  women  past  school  age,  and  who  are 
limited  in  time  to  study.  It  has  two  sessions  weekly  from 
October  to  May.  Out  of  the  forty-eight  enrolled,  there  was 
an  average  attendance  of  twenty-six.  They  were  given 
instruction  in  geography,  arithmetic,  and  the  Gospel  of 
Matthew. 


KOREA— PYENG  YANG.  291 

Primary  ScJiools. — The  primary  school  question  has  become 
an  important  and  difficult  problem. 

There  are  now  one  or  more  primary  schools  in  nearly  all  of  our 
groups.  Since  the  missionaries  have  been  so  pressed  with  other  work, 
these  schools  have  not  had  proper  oversight.  Because  of  the  fact  that 
our  church  schools  have  been  superior  to  others  in  Korea,  as  well  as  by 
reason  of  the  peculiar  position  the  Church  now  occupies  in  the  country, 
they  have  been  very  popular  with  the  general  public.  In  many  places 
the  school  committees  have  yielded  to  the  popular  demand,  and  boys 
from  non-Christian  homes  have  been  admitted  as  students,  while 
everywhere  it  is  apparent  that  many  are  favoring  the  Church  more 
because  of  its  schools  than  from  any  interest  in  Christianity.  This 
state  of  affairs  constitutes  a  problem  which  will  require  great  wisdom 
for  its  solution,  if  the  Church  is  not  to  be  overwhelmed  with  this 
secular  spirit. 

The  case  of  the  West  Gate  School  at  Pyeng  Yang  indicates  the 
present  danger.  A  party  endeavored  to  make  the  school  a  centre  of 
political  agitation.  Many  boys  from  heathen  families  were  admitted. 
Too  much  time  was  devoted  to  athletics  and  military  drill,  and  when  an 
effort  was  made  by  the  school  committee  to  check  this,  one  of  the  most 
influential  teachers  refused  to  obey  and  was  removed  from  his  position. 
This  brought  to  light  all  the  bad  spirit  in  the  school  and  among  the 
patrons.  Many  meetings  were  held  by  those  in  syinpathy  with  the 
discharged  teacher,  and  the  school  committee  and  church  officers 
were  abused  and  insulted.  As  a  result  an  independent  school  has 
been  started  with  the  support  of  the  disaffected  parents.  This  case 
is  reported  as  an  extreme  one,  and  indicates  a  danger  rather  than  a 
general  condition, 

The  condition  of  our  schools  in  general  is  good,  and  this  case 
of  the  West  Gate  School  has  served  to  awaken  the  whole  Church  to  the 
danger  in  time  to  prevent  it.  At  the  recent  leaders'  class  at  Pyeng 
Y'^ang  a  stand  was  taken,  and  our  officers  went  back  to  their  homes 
determined  to  place  the  schools  completely  under  the  control  of  the 
Church  and  to  be  carried  on  in  its  interests.

MEDICAL  WORK.— Dr.  Wells  reports  an  attendance  of 
13,094  patients  at  the  Caroline  A.  Ladd  Hospital  during  the 
year.  If  we  add  2,925  friends  who  accompanied  the  sick, 
the  widespread  influence  of  the  hospital  work  will  be  evident. 

Thanks  are  due  to  Dr.  Follwell,  Mrs.  Hall,  M.D.,  and  Miss  Hallman, 
of  the  M.  E.  Mission,  for  much  valuable  help  during  the  year.  Ser- 
vices to  missionaries  have  been  constant,  but  the  general  health  has 
been  good.  The  physician  made  eight  visits  to  Syen  Chyun  during 
the  furlough  of  Dr.  Sharrocks.     Mr.  Cho  Iksun,  who  has  served  so

well  as  superintendent,  was  compelled  to  leave  on  account  of  ill  health, 
and  his  place  was  hard  to  fill.  An  officer  in  the  Central  Church  has 
been  secured  to  take  his  place,  and  he  promises  to  become  most 
valuable. 

The  evangelistic  phase  of  the  work  is  well  conserved  by  the  Chris- 
tian staff.  Thousands  have  gone  back  to  their  homes  to  witness  for 
Christ,  of  whom  they  heard  while  at  the  hospital.  Airs.  Wells  has 
visited  the  hospital  almost  daily  and  she  does  much  to  soothe  and  com- 
fort. Other  missionaries  have  also  visited  the  hospital  from  time  to 
time.  During  the  cholera  outbreak  the  isolation  wards  of  the  hospital 
were  ttsed,  in  which  twenty-seven  patients  were  treated.  It  is  evi- 
dent that  it  is  impossible  for  one  foreigner  to  do  all  the  work  of  such  an 
institution.     There  is  great  need  for  a  trained  nurse. 

Mrs.  Moffett  also  reports  seeing  about  loo  patients;  and, 
in  Dr.  Wells'  absence,  she  has  looked  after  some  cases  among 
the  missionaries.

THE  PRESBYTERIAN  THEOLOGICAL  SEMINARY.— 
The  ordination,  September  17,  1907,  of  last  year's  graduates 
from  the  Theological  Seminary  put  the  stamp  of  approval 
of  the  Presbytery  upon  the  work  of  the  institution. 

This  year  there  is  no  graduating  class.  The  other  classes  enroll 
respectively  eleven,  twenty-seven,  twenty-seven,  and  thirty-three — 
a  total  of  ninety-eight.  They  are  a  fine  bodj^  of  capable,  consecrated 
men.  Mr.  Tate  and  Mr.  Bell  of  the  Southern  Presbyterian  Mission, 
Mr.  Foote  of  the  Canadian  Presbyterian  Mission,  and  Messrs.  Ross, 
Clark  and  Sharp  of  our  own  Mission  each  tatight  half  the  term, 
while  Dr.  Moffett  and  Mr.  Swallen  taught  practically  the  full  term. 
Several  other  members  of  Pyeng  Yang  Station  gave  examinations 
on  the  reading  of  'books  of  the  Bible.  The  attendance  from  other 
sections  of  Korea  was  larger  than  heretofore.  The  death  of  Elder  Ko 
of  Seoul  in  the  first  term  of  the  seminary  was  the  one  sad  experience 
of  the  year. 

The  greatly  needed  building  is  now  in  process  of  erection.  The 
cornerstone  was  laid  by  Dr.  Gale,  May  15,  with  appropriate  ceremonies. 
It  is  to  contain  chapel,  five  recitation  rooms  and  an  office.  The  upper 
floor  can  be  made  into  one  large  atiditorium  to  seat  about  1,000  people.

TAIKU  STATION. 

"And  one  woman  gave  her  hair."  That  sentence  from 
Mr.  Adams'  report  of  the  thank-offerings  of  the  Koreans 
toward  building  a  new  city  church  might  well  be  the  topic  of 
a  sermon.  The  act  appeals  at  first  to  our  sense  of  humor 
but  its  significance  is  more  than  superficial.  It  speaks  of 
consecrated  povert3^  of  doing  what  we  can  with  limited 
resources.  The  blessing  that  comes  from  Him  who  looks 
upon  spirit  and  proportion  rather  than  upon  amount  is  not 
small  upon  such  a  giver. 

The  Station  force,  already  weakened  b}^  the  inability  of  Mr. 
and  Mrs.  Barrett  to  return  to  the  work  on  account  of  ill 
health,  was  further  reduced  by  the  furlough  of  Mr.  and  Mrs. 
Bruen. 

EVANGELISTIC— r/zc  Taiku  City  Church.— "The  church 
has  had  steady  growth,  both  in  spiritual  life  and  in  numbers. 
It  now  has  a  constituency  of  859,  of  whom  247  are  catechu- 
mens and  100  are  communicant  members.  Twenty-five 
were  added  on  confession,  and  120  as  catechumens.  The 
church,  in  connection  with  the  neighboring  Satol  Church, 
supports  a  helper  and  an  evangelist. 

They  have  outgrown  their  church  building,  and  after  many  succes- 
sive enlargements  of  it  are  now  compelled  to  build  a  new  one.  This 
they  have  undertaken  in  the  usual  Korean  way,  more  by  faith  than  by 
sight.  The  building  they  had  wished  to  put  up  would  have  cost 
about  $2,250  and  seated  about  1,500  people.  The  building  the}''  are 
erecting  will  cost  perhaps  two-thirds  of  that  amotmt  and  seat  the 
same  proportion.  It  will  be  left,  however,  so  that  a  future  enlarge- 
ment may  be  made.  It  is  doubtful  whether  it  will  accommodate  the 
audience  when  it  is  completed.  When  the  offering  for  the  new  church 
building  was  received  there  Avere  many  affecting  scenes  of  zeal  and 
consecration.  From  the  men  came  money,  rings,  and  one  or  two 
watches — much  prized  and  recently  acquired — while  the  women  gave 
their  silver  ornaments,  their  bridal  hairpins,  and  one  woman  her 
hair. 

For  congregational  expenses  during  the  eleven  months  the  church 
has  given  $118.43;  for  its  educational  work  $211.86;  for  church 
erection  $1,098.65;  and  for  missionary  work  $15.89. 

An  interesting  feature  of  the  Winter's  work  was  an  evangelistic 
campaign,  starting  with  a  house-to-house  canvass  in  the  city,  and 
including  daily  afternoon  and  evening  .meetings  in  the  City  Church. 
The  audiences  averaged  about  700,  the  majority  of  whom  were  non- 
Christians. 

The  Country  Work. — Eastern  Circuit  (Mr.  Adams  in  charge). 

Four  new  groups  have  been  established  on  this  circuit,  and  a 
ntmiber  of  new  centres  developed.  There  are  .sixteen  groups,  of  which 
four  will  hereafter  belong  to  the  northern  circuit.  The  growth  in 
numbers,  organization  and  .grace  has  been  good.  The  helper,  Mr. 
Whang,  has  done  excellent  work.  There  have  been  added  during  the 
year  eightj'-six  communicants  and  125  catechumens,  while  the  num- 


294  KOREA— TAIKU. 

ber  of  adherents  has  grown  from  1,302  to  1,556.  During  the  Winter 
revival  services  were  held  in  most  of  the  churches,  with  a  manifestly 
stimulating  effect.  The  contributions  on  this  circuit  for  eleven  months 
were  $482.  It  should  be  noted  in  all  these  statements  that  while  the 
amounts  quoted  for  the  convenience  of  readers  at  home  are  in  United 
States  currency,  the  contributions  represent  a  far  larger  sum  (fully 
tenfold  larger)  to  the  Koreans,  which  would  appear  were  the  offerings 
stated  in  the  terms  of  their  currency. 

The  Far  East  and  Southern  Circuits  (Mr.  McFarland  in 
charge) . — 

There  have  been  two  forward  movements  in  the  groups  of  this 
region.  One  has  been  the  great  interest  aroused  in  educating  the 
Christian  children  in  almost  every  group.  All  the  helpers  are  urging 
this  work,  and  the  people  are  taking  hold  of  it  in  such  a  way  that  in  a 
few  years  we  shall  have  strong  country  church  schools.  The  second 
movement  is  that  of  several  groups  joining  in  raising  money  for  the 
support  of  a  colporteur.  The  helpers'  duties  have  become  so  heavy 
that  they  no  longer  have  time  for  general  preaching  on  the  roadside, 
and  as  all  colporteurs  supported  on  Mission  funds  go  into  unevangel- 
ized  regions,  the  Christians  have  felt  the  need  of  itinerant  evangelists 
to  do  organized  preaching  to  their  non-Christian  neighbors. 

Eleven  new  groups  have  been  established,  12S  received  on  confession 
and  451  as  catechumens.  The  enthusiasin  of  the  Christians  is  shown 
by  their  contribiitions  to  support  an  extra  helper  and  a  local  colporteur. 

There  have  been  a  few  cases  of  persecution,  some  from 
the  simple  hatred  that  heathenism  has  for  the  Christian 
rehgion,  while  some  have  been  brought  on  by  the  foohsh 
acts  of  new  converts. 

Some  have  their  humorous  side,  as  when  a  young  colporteur,  brought 
before  a  magistrate  and  told  to  prove  that  he  was  a  Christian  b}''  singing 
a  hymn,  was  interrtipted  and  told  that  he  might  stop.  He  replied  that 
there  was  no  such  custom  in  the  church  as  that  of  singing  a  fragment 
of  a  hymn,  and  he  detained  the  magistrate  while  he  sang  through  all 
four  verses  of  "Loving  Kindness."  Other  cases  have  been  more 
severe,  and  at  least  one  tenninated  in  actual  martyrdom,  as  when  a 
Christian  returning  from  meeting  preached  to  a  Japanese  soldier,  and 
was  beheaded  by  the  enraged  soldier,  who  considered  himself  insulted. 

The  total  number  of  adherents  among  the  groups  in  this 
section  is  2,747,  and  during  the  year  the  church  has  contrib- 
uted for  evangeHstic  work  $37.60,  for  congregational  expenses 
$191.39,  and  for  all  other  purposes  $537.66. 

The  Western  Circuits. — These  circuits  are  in  charge  of  Mr. 
Bruen,  but  owing  to  his  absence  on  furlough  they  were  divided 
for  the  year  among  Mr.  Adams,  Mr.  McFarland  and  Mr. 
Erdman. 

Mr.  McFarland,  though  pressed  with  his  own  work,  and  not  well 
much  of  the  time,  was  able  to  visit  the  territories  under  three  helpers. 
He  reported  lack  of  vitality  in  one  group,  so  that  he  spent  most  of  his 
time  in  "correction,  reproof,  and  instruction  in  righteousness." 

Conditions  were  more  encouraging  in  the  others.     Two  new  groups 


KOREA— TAIKU.  295 

were  established  and  many  catechumens  received.  The  extreme 
northwest  of  the  province  was  also  visited,  where  the  new  work  is 
developing.  Things  are  in  a  disturbed  condition  at  present,  owing 
to  the  presence  of  insurgents,  and  also  to  rascals  who  pretended  to 
have  been  sent  by  the  Methodists  to  establish  and  rule  churches. 
Many  of  their  acts  were  outrageous,  and  made  the  Christian  religion 
odious  to  many. 

One  of  these  pseudo-preachers  was  found  to  be  in  league  with  the 
insurgents  and  was  killed  b}'  the  Japanese,  as  a  warning  to  all  who  are 
inclined  to  mix  politics  with  religion.  Only  thirteen  catechumens 
were  received.  Mr.  Adams'  work  was  such  that  he  was  able  to  visit 
but  two  of  the  groups  in  his  share  of  Mr.  Bruen's  territory,  while  Mr. 
McFarland  visited  two  others.  The  church  in  this  district  has  made 
great  progress  in  the  support  of  evangelists.  No  new  groups  have 
developed,  but,  considering  the  fact  that  the  majority  of  those  existing 
have  not  been  visited  this  year,  they  have  held  their  own  well.  Con- 
tributions amounted  to  $173.59.  The  people  support  seven  schools 
with  eighty-five  scholars. 

Sun  San  and  Kai  Ryeng  sections  of  this  territory,  which  is 
in  charge  of  the.  only  elder  thus  far  ordained  in  the  country 
work  of  this  Station,  Kim  Chai  Su,  was  visited  twice  during 
the  year  by  Mr.  Erdman. 

There  are  eleven  groups  in  this  district.  The  fidelity  of  Elder  Kim 
is  apparent  in  the  satisfactory  conditions  and  in  the  large  amounts 
the  people  have  given  in  great  self-denial  for  local  evangelization. 
No  new  groups  were  organized,  though  some  are  ready  for  it,  and  in 
one  case  the  whole  village  is  calling  for  a  church.  The  total  number 
of  adherents  on  these  western  circuits  is  2,557,  among  whom  ninety- 
three  were  baptized  this  year.  They  have  contributed  to  congrega- 
tional expenses  $380.28  and  to  evangelistic  work  $109.42. 

The  Northern  Circuit  (Mr.  Erdman  in  charge). — 

This  is  a  fan-shaped  territory  with  Taiku  at  its  apex,  stretching 
north  for  abottt  165  miles,  and  having  for  its  base  line  a  northern 
boundary  of  North  Kyung  Sang  Province.  There  are  twenty-six 
communicants  as  against  twelve  last  year,  193  catechtimens  as  against 
seventy-one  last  j^ear,  while  five  new  groups  have  been  organized,  in 
addition  to  which  there  are  ten  regularly  visited  preaching  places 
where  there  are  catechumens  in  unorganized  groups. 

The  growth  is  genuine  and  healthful.  The  helper  in  this  circuit 
has  been  very  faithful. 

There  have  been  many  of  the  setbacks  and  problems  inci- 
dent to  a  new  work.  Part  of  the  time  also  itineration  was 
unsafe,  owing  to  the  presence  of  the  insurgents.  The  report 
shows  a  total  of  972  enrolled  attendants,  apart  from  catechu- 
mens or  communicants,  while  there  is  an  average  Sunday 
attendance  of  1,398.  All  groups  have  their  church  buildings. 
$85.26  have  been  spent  on  self-support,  S101.86  on  church 
erection,  $25.34  on  other  objects. 

EDUCATIONAL.— r/i(?  Boys'  Academy.— The  attendance 
at  the  Fall  term  numbered  fifty-two,  all  Christian  young  men 


296  KOREA— TAIKU. 

and  boys,  recommended  by  the  missionary  in  charge  of  their 
respective  churches.  All  were  self-supporting,  work  being 
provided  for  a  few  in  order  to  help  them  stay  in  school. 

The  new  academy  building  is  now  under  construction  and  will  be 
ready  for  occupancy  in  the  Fall.  The  lower  story  is  of  stone  and 
the  upper  story  of  brick,  with  the  roof  of  Korean  tile.  It  will  contain 
five  classrooms  and  a  chapel.  The  gift  of  $5,000  will  put  up  the  build- 
ing and  equip  it  measurably  with  school  furnishings,  but  it  will  not 
provide  any  dormitory  buildings.  * 

Many  of  the  students  are  from  the  poorer  class,  who  are  ambitious 
to  get  an  education,  but  who  have  to  strain  every  resource  to  meet 
the  bare  expense  of  school  fees  and  board  bills.  Room  rent  is  often 
the  decisive  factor  with  them.  Last  term  at  the  drawing  for  rooms 
one  boy,  who  failed  to  draw,  broke  down  and  wept  because  he  had 
not  calculated  on  having  to  go  out  and  rent  a  room,  and  had  no  money 
for  it.  A  Korean  gentleman  in  the  city  has  offered  to  endow  such 
dormitories  as  we  may  put  up  with  sufficient  to  provide  light,  fuel 
and  repair  bills  from  the  income.  These  students  are  Christians, 
many  looking  forward  to  Christian  work. 

Tlie  Primary  Schools. — The  church  schools  of  the  city  have 
grown  steadily.  In  the  boys'  primary  there  are  now  120, 
while  the  girls'  school  enrolls  forty-seven.  The  Mission  assists 
the  boys'  school  to  the  extent  of  about  $1.50  per  month,  and 
$3  per  month  is  given  to  the  girls'  school  from  private  sources. 
The  balance  is  raised  by  the  City  Church,  which  this  year 
contributed  $210.10  for  educational  purposes. 

We  have  in  our  schools  about  one-third  of  all  the  Korean 
school  children  in  this  whole  city.  Throughout  the  province 
we  have  an  aggregate  of  sixt3'-five  schools,  entirely  self-sup- 
porting.    The  total  enrollment  is  842  scholars. 

These  schools  are  primary,  and  often  lack  competent 
teachers,  but  the  Christians  are  doing  the  best  they  can  to 
make  them  as  good  as  circumstances  permit.  They  have 
contributed  in  the  past  year  $861.27  for  this  purpose. 

TRAINING  CLASSES.— 7A^  Second  Annual  Church  Offi- 
cers and  Normal  Class  in  November  proved  to  be  as  useful 
in  solidifying  and  unifying  the  Church  as  was  that  of  last  year. 

Church  officers  from  nearly  every  group  in  the  Station  territory 
were  present,  and  the  time  was  most  profitably  spent  in  Bible  study, 
the  discussion  of  questions  of  Church  principles  and  leadership,  and 
questions  relating  to  Christian  citizenship,  social  and  personal  life, 
and  spiritual  growth.  There  were  present  about  150  leaders  in  Chris- 
tian work  throughout  the  province. 

The  Midwinter  Bible  Class  for  Men  in  February  had  an 
attendance  of  800,  a  gain  of  300  over  last  year. 

The  men  came  from  all  the  churches  and  remained  for  instruction 
ten  daj-s.     Dr.  Moffett's  assistance  was  much  appreciated  by  all. 
After-effects  appeared  in  a  series  of  small  classes  held  by  the  Ko- 


KOREA— TAIKU.  297 

reans  themselves  at  various  places.  The  yearly  growth  of  this  mid- 
winter class,  the  interest  of  the  students,  and  their  zealous  though 
laborious  efforts  at  note  taking  attest  the  value  that  the  Koreans 
themselves  set  upon  them. 

WOMEN'S  WORK.— The  Winter  Bible  Class  for  Women 
was  held  in  March  and  more  than  doubled  last  year's  record 
of  attendants.  There  were  175  women  in  the  first  division 
alone,  and  a  total  of  about  350.  All  the  women  of  the  Station 
had  some  part  in  the  instruction,  and  Miss  Samuels  and  her 
Bible  woman  from  Syen  Chyun  and  Dr.  Moffett  also  helped. 

Mrs.  Adams  conducts  a  weekly  class  in  the  Bible,  in  which  about 
fifty  women  are  studying  Matthew.  A  Dorcas  Society  was  organized 
by  Mrs.  Johnson  last  year  to  cultivate  a  missionary  spirit  among 
women  of  the  church.  This  has  been  in  charge  of  Miss  Cameron,  and 
of  Mrs.  Sawtell  during  the  former's  illness. 

The  Bible  woman  has  done  a  good  work  not  only  in  the  City  Church, 
visiting  and  praying  with  the  sick  and  afflicted,  and  looking  tip  the 
delinquent  members,  but  she  has  made  a  number  of  long  country 
trips,  visiting  church  after  church,  and  bringing  cheer  and  encourage- 
ment. We  were  not  able  to  conduct  any  country  Bible  classes  this 
year,  but  one  or  two  trips  were  made  to  the  country  by  Mrs.  Erdman, 
Mrs.  Sawtell,  Mrs.  McFarland  and  Miss  Cameron. 

Mrs.  Johnson  has  had  charge  of  the  bathroom  for  women,  opened 
through  the  kindness  of  friends,  an  institution  which  has  been  much 
appreciated  by  those  who  have  been  able  to  avail  themselves  of  it. 

Mrs.  McFarland  conducted  in  the  Spring  a  Tuesday  afternoon  Bible 
study  class  for  the  little  girls  of  the  day-school. 

MEDICAL. — The  Taiku  Hospital. — The  year  has  been  a 
good  one  for  medical  work  in  connection  with  the  hospital. 
More  patients  have  come  and  more  operations  have  been  per- 
formed than  before;  and,  better  than  either,  more  of  the 
patients  have  become  interested  in  the  Gospel  and  con- 
fessed Jesus. 

An  average  of  twenty  surgical  cases  required  dressing  daily,  many 
of  them  tubercular  bone  diseases  which,  after  operation,  took  from 
one  to  two  months  for  recovery.  Few  men  or  women,  unless  excep- 
tionally hardhearted  or  prejudiced,  can  be  politely  and  kindly  treated, 
have  their  wounds  carefully  washed  and  dressed  and  hear  daily 
doctrine  preached  and  taught  by  those  so  caring  for  them,  without 
being  convinced  that  the  doctrine  and  the  treatment  are  one,  and 
being  profoundly  impressed  thereby.  Mr.  Su,  the  evangelistic  helper, 
has  done  earnest  preaching  and  personal  work.  Three  student  assist- 
ants have  been  added  to  the  two  already  employed. 

Several  times,  when  lifting  the  curtain  that  separates  the  constilting 
from  the  operating  room,  the  doctor  has  found  the  waiting  patient 
with  head  bowed  in  prayer. 

Mr.  Su  keeps  a  book  in  which  is  noted  the  name  and  address  of  every 
patient  who  has  become  a  Christian  or  expressed  an  interest  in  the 
Gospel,  or  who  has  even  manifested  a  special  friendliness.  These 
names  he  gives  to  the  missionary  of  the  Station  in  whose  territory  the 
patient  lives,  and  when  that  missionary  takes  an  itinerating  trip  to  the 
country,  if  possible,  he  looks  up  the  ex-patient,  or  directs  one  of  his 


298  KOREA— SYEN  CHYUN. 

helpers  to  do  so.     Thus  the  evangelistic  work  of  the  hospital  is  fol- 
lowed up  and  conserved. 

SYEN  CHYUN  STATION. 

The  absence  of  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Sharrocks  on  furlough  materi- 
ally affected  the  Station  work  during  the  year.  Dr.  Hirst, 
Dr.  Whiting  and  Dr.  Wells  gave  occasional  assistance.  In 
March  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Purviance  came  from  America,  and 
remained  until  Dr.  Sharrocks'  return.  Business  matters, 
house  building,  and  much  of  the  routine  duties  of  Station  life, 
which  had  been  borne  by  Dr.  Sharrocks,  were  added  to  the 
work  of  others.  The  coming  of  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Roberts  was  a 
welcome  event. 

There  has  been  almost  constant  sickness  in  the  Station, 
and  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Ross  had  the  sorrow  of  seeing  their  little 
child  taken  from  them  in  December. 

The  completion  of  the  Whittemore  house  and  the  Oliver  Memorial 
Home,  making  five  comfortable  homes  in  our  Station,  has  added  much 
to  our  comfort.  Many  visitors  have  been  with  us,  including  the  parents 
of  Mr.  and  Mrs.  H.  E.  Blair  and  Mrs.  Whittemore's  sister.  Miss  Anna 
Parsons.  The  railroad  has  brought  us  nearer  the  world,  and  made 
living  easier;  but  with  the  change  have  come  hosts  of  problems, 
making  the  past  year  the  most  difficult  one  in  the  history  of  the 
Station. 

EVANGELISTIC— The  Sub-Presbyterial  Committee  is 
getting  the  Church  on  a  better  basis,  all  work  becoming  more 
thoroughly  organized.  There  are  now,  besides  one  Korean 
pastor,  ten  organized  churches,  eleven  ordained  elders,  three 
having  been  ordained  during  the  year,  and  two  elders-elect  in 
the  province. 

It  has  been  a  privilege  to  get  these  men  together  to  discuss  the 
problems  of  the  Church  and  to  lay  plans  for  the  future.  They  are 
strong  men,  and  their  wisdom  is  consecrated.  They  have  personal 
ambitions,  but  are  wonderfully  patient  while  the  Church  goes  through 
its  formative  period.  Their  unselfish  devotion  is  inspiring.  The 
Church  has  become  their  sphere  of  life 

The  helpers  have  traveled  their  circuits  as  usual.  Last 
year  we  reported  twenty-one  helpers,  each  with  a  circuit. 
There  are  now  twenty-five  helpers,  four  new  circuits  having 
been  formed  during  the  year. 

The  local  church  has  advanced  strongly.  The  new  building 
constantly  increases  in  its  usefulness.  The  debt  is  paid. 
There  have  been  eighty-two  baptisms  and  130  catechumens 
admitted  to  the  local  church  during  the  A^ear,  making  a  total 
of  447  baptized  members  and  400  catechumens. 

At  one  time  discipline  for  gross  sin  had  to  be  vigorously  adminis- 
tered.    The   men's    Sunday    Bible    school,    conducted   by   Mr.    Blair, 


KOREA— SYEN  CHYUN.  299 

and  the  women's  Bible  school,  in  charge  of  Miss  Chase,  are  still  held 
separately,  the  men  studying  lirst  and  then  going  home  to  care  for  the 
babies  while  the  women  study.  Miss  Chase,  Mrs.  Ross,  Mrs.  Whitte- 
more  and  Mrs.  Blair  have  all  held  special  women's  Bible  classes  during 
the  year. 

The  Gospel's  hold  upon  our  little  town  grows  deeper  and  deeper. 
Just  above  the  town  has  long  stood  a  high  place,  where  animals  have 
been  sacrificed  to  demons.  First  word  came  that  the  building  was 
for  sale;  then  one  day  a  group  of  Christian  business  men  went  up  and 
took  the  images  out  of  the  shrine  and  burned  them  below  the  gate. 
Then  the  bttilding  was  torn  down,  and  at  last  the  town,  in  a  meeting, 
gave  the  whole  mountain-side  to  one  of  the  schools  of  the  local  church 
as  an  endowment.  During  the  year  the  province  has  been  nearly 
cleared  of  devil  worship  shrines. 

The  country  churches  throughout  the  province  have 
grown  stronger  and  new  groups  have  sprung  up  in  many 
places.  We  now  have  122  groups  in  all  where  regular  church 
services  are  held.  There  are  in  all  5,408  baptized  Christians, 
1,388  having  been  baptized  this  year,  and  5,367  catechumens, 
2,045  being  added  this  year. 

Many  of  the  groups  could  be  visited  but  once  this  year.  We  have 
been  deeply  distressed  over  the  tendency  of  the  Christians  to  lose 
sight  of  the  highest  spirittial  ideals  in  the  new  awakening  over  national 
and  educational  affairs.  We  would  not  discourage  patriotism  or  new 
zeal  for  larger  things  in  education  or  in  business,  yet  we  feel  that  in 
the  change  zeal  for  preaching  the  Gospel,  Bible  study,  and  devotion 
to  Christ  have  suffered,  and  that,  though  the  Church  has  grown  rapidly, 
educational  and  political  interests  move  too  many  of  those  who  come. 

Some  sections  of  our  territory  have  become  largely  evan- 
gelized. Standing  on  the  hills  of  southern  Wijii  or  Nyong 
Chyun  Counties  and  looking  in  almost  any  direction,  one  has 
before  him  the  villages  where  from  four  to  six  churches  are 
to  be  seen.  Taking  the  Yang  Tang  Church  in  Nyong  Chyun 
County  as  a  centre,  and  describing  a  circle  whose  radius  is 
ten  miles,  twenty  churches  enrolling  over  3,000  believers  will 
be  included.  The  Yang  Tang  Church  alone  enrolls  over  650 
believers. 

The  trouble  in  the  Tyul  San  Church,  which  was  rent  by  unruly 
officers  last  year,  has  been  healed,  and  the  church  is  going  forward 
with  good  spirit.  One  group  in  Wiju  County  refused  to  welcome 
the  assigned  helper  because  of  the  personal  dislike  of  a  wealthy  leader. 
Upon  his  being  deposed  from  his  office  in  the  church,  the  whole  church 
followed  him  and  cut  loose  from  Presbyterial  control. 

In  Ku  Shung  County  the  Nam  Dang  group  suffered  terribly  in  a 
fire  which  swept  away  more  than  half  the  town.  The  unbelievers 
blamed  the  Christians  for  the  fire  and  damaged  their  remaining  homes 
and  the  church.  Hearing  of  their  distress,  sympathizing  Christians 
throughout  the  province  have  taken  up  relief  funds  on  their  behalf. 

The  work  in  Tyung  Ju,  Ka  San  and  Pak  Chtin  Counties  has  been 
under  the  joint  care  of  Mr.  Whittemore  and  the  Korean  Pastor  Nyang. 
Pastor  Nyang  has  borne  the  responsibility  and  duties  of  the  work  and 
has  performed  his  pastoral  duties  well.

EDUCATIONAL  WORK.— Bible  Study  Classes.— The  lar- 
gest class  ever  held  in  Korea  was  held  in  February  in  the 
Syen  Chyun  Church.  The  presence  of  Mr.  Sharp  of  Seoul 
and  Pastor  Pang  of  Pyeng  Yang  was  a  great  help.  Five 
Bible  study  classes  for  men  were  conducted  by  the  men  of 
the  Station  during  the  year,  enrolling  over  2,500. 

The  classes  for  women  have  been  especially  well  attended. 
The  two  classes  held  in  Syen  Chyun  enrolled  660.  Miss 
Samuels  held  sixteen  classes  during  the  year,  enrolling  2,458 
women. 

The  home  missionaries  are  still  faithful  to  their  tasks.  The  territory 
traveled  by  the  missionary  Cha  has  progressed  so  well  that  it  was 
deemed  best  to  have  him  give  half  his  time  to  the  organized  groups, 
and  only  half  his  time  to  missionary  work.  The  plan  is  to  put  on 
another  man  as  missionary  at  once. 

A  new  plan  of  raising  the  home  missionary's  salary  was  started  last 
Fall  by  propositions  from  two  of  the  counties  to  be  responsible  each 
for  one  missionary's  salary.  This  work  has  been  on  a  better  basis 
since  the  Pyeng  Yang  Missionary  Society  and  our  Society  separated. 
Our  people  take  a  more  definite  and  personal  interest  in  the  work 

Missionary  Whang,  who  works  among  the  Koreans  in  Manchuria, 
has  gathered  a  new  group  of  believers  together  and  reports  rapid 
progress.  His  work  has  been  somewhat  endangered  by  malcontents 
who  have  found  refuge  in  the  China  hills.  We  are  still  longing  for  the 
time  when  order  may  be  brought  out  of  the  chaos  that  reigns  along 
the  Yalu  River. 

Colporteurs  have  largely  become  agents  of  private  book 
firms  which  are  in  the  business  for  money.  Thus  we  lose 
the  personal  evangelistic  help  of  the  colporteurs  to  a  large 
extent,  even  though  the  men  who  travel  for  the  bookstores 
are  all  Christians.  Mr.  Whittemore  has  dropped  the  book 
business,  and  is  now  getting  rid  of  the  remnants  of  the  old 
stock. 

In  the  far  north  two  colporteurs  are  working  as  in  the  past,  but  they 
will  also  probably  be  supplanted  by  agents  for  private  bookstores  in 
the  near  future.  This  turning  over  of  the  book  business  has  on  the 
whole  been  beneficial,  in  that  it  gets  more  Christian  books  sold; 
it  is  also  a  big  step  in  advance  along  lines  of  self-support. 

Theological  Education. — Mr.  Ross  this  year  gave  one  and  a 
half  months'  instruction  in  the  Theological  Seminary  at 
Pyeng  Yang,  where  twenty-nine  students  were  from  Syen 
Chyun.  There  are  at  present  ten  men  desiring  to  study 
theology  who  are  being  held  back  for  thorough  testing. 

The  Syen  Chyun  Boys'  Academy  has  enrolled  eighty  stu- 
dents with  only  three  classes. 

Mr.  Ross  was  in  charge  till  February,  and  since  then  the  two  Ko- 
rean teachers  have  had  charge.  Good  work  has  been  done  by  the 
students,  although  a  semi-riot  occurred  when  the  boys  were  not  per- 
mitted to  run  the  school  and  choose  their  own  curriculum  at  the  begin- 


KOREA— SYEN  CHYUN.  301 

ning  of  the  Spring  term.     The  expulsion  of  a  few  leaders  brought  them 
to  their  senses. 

The  Wiju  Academy  has  enrolled  fifty  boys  and  the  progress 
has  been  satisfactory. 

In  Yang  Tang  and  Tuk  Chyun  two  academies  have  been  started, 
and,  despite  all  endeavors  of  the  Sub-Presbyterial  Committee  to  imitc 
them  into  one  strong  school,  they  are  still  separate,  entailing  a  too 
heavy  financial  burden  on  the  two  co:nmunities. 

The  Syen  Chyun  Girls'  Academy  has  been  in  Miss  Chases' 
charge.  Forty  students  were  enrolled,  and  five  months  of 
school  were  held  in  the  wards  of  the  hospital  made  vacant  by 
Dr.  Sharrocks'  absence.  The  students  varied  from  women 
thirty-five  years  old  to  little  girls  who  received  their  diplomas 
from  the  primary  schools  last  Spring. 

The  Wiju  Girls'  Academy  enrolled  thirty  students,  and  has 
made  splendid  progress.  Miss  Chase  was  in  Wiju  during 
their  Spring  term  and  taught  only  Bible  classes. 

Over  500  primary  and  night  schools,  claiming  to  teach 
western  branches,  have  been  started  by  officials  and  unbe- 
lievers in  our  territory.  The  church  schools  are  in  the  lead 
of  all,  and  influence  all. 

Normal  Classes. — A  group  of  teachers  from  the  nearby 
counties  has  followed  a  normal  course,  gathering  every 
Monday  at  Syen  Chyun  for  recitation.  In  July  the  Annual 
Normal  Class  was  attended  by  144  teachers,  114  men  and  20 
women. 

The  teachers  worked  hard  to  the  end,  determined  to  master  the 
course,  Avhich  will  be  increased  to  four  years  next  year,  that  they 
may  not  only  get  certificates,  but  may  not  have  to  give  place  to  the 
young  school  boys  who  carry  academy  diplomas.  They  realize  that  it 
is  a  struggle  for  the  survival  of  the  fittest,  and  are  determined  to  sur- 
vive, though  they  have  never  studied  in  academy  or  college. 

Endeavor  has  been  made  to  enforce  uniform  curriculum,  and  we 
have  been  largely  successful.  Better  methods  of  teaching  and  govern- 
ing the  children  are  urged  with  varied  success.  The  magic  uprising  of 
athletic  drill  among  the  primary  schools,  while  it  has  multiplied  the 
strength  and  life  of  the  schools,  has  tended  to  break  up  studious  habits 
and  make  the  boys  headstrong.  Yet,  on  the  whole,  we  are  satisfied 
that  out  of  all  the  present  tumult  over  education  much  good  will 
result  to  the  people  and  the  Church. 

MEDICAL.— After  Dr.  Sharrocks'  departure,  both  Dr. 
Hirst  and  Dr.  Whiting  did  work  in  the  hospital.  After  annual 
meeting  the  buildings  were  closed,  except  while  used  for  the 
Girls'  Academy. 

Dr.  Wells  cheerfully  came  to  our  assistance  about  twice  a  month, 
though  very  busy  with  his  own  work  in  Pyeng  Yang.  He  was  relieved 
by  the  arrival  of  Dr.  Purviance  in  March;  who,  on  account  of  language 
study,  has  tried  to  confine  his  labors  to  treating  missionaries  only 


302  KOREA— CHAI  RYUNG. 

but  has  been  unable  to  turn  aside  a  great  many  Korean  cases  where 
it  would  have  been  cruel  to  have  turned  a  deaf  ear.  We  wish  to 
express  our  gratitude  to  Miss  Hallman,  of  Pyeng  Yang,  for  her  help  in 
emergency. 

The  young  Korean  physician,  Dr.  Tang,  who  graduated  last  Spring 
from  the  Medical  class,  has  opened  a  hospital  in  Wiju  and  has  had 
continual  calls  for  his  services ;  he  often  treats  as  many  as  sixty  cases 
a  day  and  gives  satisfaction.  The  coming  and  going  of  medical 
superintendence  has  made  this  a  costly  year  in  comparison  with  the 
native  work  done.

THE  HUGH  O'NEIL  JR.,  BOYS'  INDUSTRIAL  SCHOOL 

AND  FARM.— Mrs.  Hugh  O'Neil's  gift  of  $15,000  (gold) 
for  a  boys'  school  in  Syen  Chyun  is  bringing  us  great  help  in 
our  school  situation,  and  also  puts  upon  us  grave  responsibili- 
ties and  new  problems. 

We  have  felt  all  along  that  our  Christians  were  able  to  finance  their 
own  educational  work,  but  two  very  strong  reasons  have  led  us  to  feel 
that  a  school  in  Syen  Chyun,  run  by  Mission  money  and  controlled  by 
the  Mission,  is  necessary.  First,  because  we  need  a  better  grip  on  our 
educational  situation;  second,  there  are  hosts  of  poor  boys,  the  very 
best  material  for  strong  church  workers,  who  cannot  get  an  education 
unless  some  system  of  furnishing  advantageous  work,  whereby  they 
can  earn  money  enough  to  live  and  study,  is  provided.  We  want  a 
school,  the  best  of  its  kind  in  our  province,  best  taught,  best  equipped, 
best  governed,  graduating  the  best  students,  and  we  want  it  under 
Mission  control.  We  also  want  to  be  able  to  say  to  worthy  boys,  no 
matter  how  many  may  come,  that  we  can  guarantee  work  that  will 
enable  them  to  get  an  education. 

CHAI  RYUNG  STATION. 

This  comparatively  new  Station  has  reached  a  settled 
division  of  labor  and  organization.  Dr.  Whiting's  eyes  and 
general  ill  health  have  caused  much  anxiety,  but  we  rejoice 
in  his  improvement. 

We  have  been  most  fortunate  in  the  visitors  who  have  helped  make 
the  vear  pleasant.     Mr.  Eckerson,  of  China,  was  the  first,  followed 


KOREA— CHAI  RYUNG.  303 

soon  by  Mr.  Severance,  Dr.  Avison,  Dr.  Ludlow  and  Mr.  Kagin.  After 
annual  meeting  came  Bishop  Harris,  Mr.  Noble  and  Mr.  Critchet. 
Dr.  FoUwell  helped  nobl}^  in  the  hospital  during  the  December  class, 
Miss  Butts  spent  a  month  with  us,  and  Messrs.  Tate  and  Welbon 
taught  at  the  same  time.  Mr.  Kilbom,  of  East  Orange,  N.  J.,  took  in 
Chai  Rj'tmg  on  his  way  around  the  world.  Miss  Snook  and  Mrs. 
Bemheisel  came  for  the  Women's  class,  and  later  Mrs.  Pieters  and  Miss 
Best  for  the  Advanced  class.  Mr.  Rufus,  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Clark,  Mr.  and 
Mrs.  Greenfield,  and  Miss  Strang  complete  the  list  of  visitors.  Mrs. 
Sharp  came  to  Chai  Ryung  shortly  before  leaving  for  America,  and 
her  husband  has  been  with  us  as  often  as  his  work  would  permit. 

Building. — The  hospital  and  the  residences  of  Mr.  Koons 
and  Mr.  Hunt  have  been  completed  and  Mr.  Sharp's  house 
begun  during  the  year.  The  City  Church  has  finished  its 
new  building,  which  has  already  held  an  audience  of  i,ooo, 
and  has  begun  a  primary  school  building,  20  by  70  feet. 
The  Mission  property  has  been  surveyed  and  a  beginning 
made  on  wall  and  fence. 

New  Developments. — Pastor  Saw  Kyung  Jo  was  placed  in 
charge  of  a  large  country  circuit,  consisting  of  Chaing  Nyun, 
Ong  Jin  and  Kang  Nyun  Counties,  comprising  two-thirds 
of  what  was  in  Mr.  Sharp's  charge  in  past  years. 

Another  change  in  organization  was  made  by  putting  the 
special  training  of  women  for  evangelistic  work  in  charge  of 
Mrs.  Whiting,  Mrs.  Hunt  and  Mrs.  Koons,  as  a  Station 
Committee. 

Three  lines  of  work  are  to  be  done  by  this  Committee:  (i)  The 
regular  Training  classes,  held  in  Chai  Ryung  once  a  year  or  oftener, 
and  open  to  all.  (2)  Special  classes,  two  a  year  if  possible,  for  a  chosen 
few.  (3)  Private  training  for  city  and  country  Bible  women.  The 
General  class  in  March  was  attended  by  256,  and  the  Special  class  in 
June  by  twenty-four.  The  teaching  was  done  by  friends  from  Seoul 
and  P3-eng  Yang,  with  help  from  the  women  of  the  Station,  Mr. 
Hunt,  and  the  City  Church  people.  Our  third  experiment  was  the 
Normal  class.  This  was  held  for  a  month,  and  enrolled  no,  of  whom 
fiftj'-six  held  out  to  the  end.  The  teaching  was  done  by  eight  Koreans, 
two  being  paid  and  the  rest  voluntarj^  Mr.  Hunt,  Dr.  Whiting  and  Mr. 
Koons,  with  help  from  others  in  emergencies. 

Chai  Ryung  City  Church  (Mr.  Hunt  and  Mr.  Koons  in 
charge). — The  congregation  of  1,000  people,  with  its  one 
helper,  three  leaders,  seven  deacons,  eight  "pang  changs, " 
and  thirty-five  or  more  Sunday-school  teachers,  became  an 
organized  church  July  8. 

Its  vigorous  campaign  of  personal  work,  and  other  forms  of  preach- 
ing Christ,  its  enthusiastic  school  work,  the  pastoral  work  of  its  officers 
and  its  splendid  self-denial  in  church  building,  all  speak  of  a  life  that 
comes  from  above  working  with  the  body  of  Christ.  Bible  study 
classes  were  held  during  the  Winter  four  nights  a  week  and  prayer 
meetings  the  other  two.  For  all  Whang  Hai  Province  the  Church 
has  called  two  Bible  study  classes  for  men  and  two  for  women.  The 
total  enrollment  was  about    1,300. 


304  KOREA— CHAI  RYUNG. 

Mrs.  Whiting's  class  for  women  Thursdays  and  Dr.  Whiting's 
Sunday-school  teachers'  class  Saturdays  have  been  "channels  of 
blessing.  "  Sj'stematic  giving  has  been  introduced.  The  new  building 
has  proved  very  satisfactory,  but  is  already  too  small  for  the  congre- 
gation. W^e  await  the  completion  of  the  new  school  building  in  which 
to  begin  the  gathering  of  a  second  congregation.  How  great  things 
God  has  wrought! 

The  following  outline  of  beginnings  should  be  preserved: 

In  1895,  Han  Chi  Soon,  of  Sinampo,  received  baptism  in  Pyeng 
Yang. 

1896,  Mr.  Han  and  others  preached  Christ  in  Chai  Ryung.  A  few 
believed,  meeting  in  houses. 

1897,  eleven  persons  were  baptized. 

1898,  Song  Si  bought  a  building  in  which  the  young  church  could 
meet,  and  Mr.  Lee  had  a  class  which  was  hampered  by  jealousy  Mathout 
and  lack  of  faith  within  the  group.  Mr.  Hunt  visited  the  group  for  the 
first  time  in  the  Fall  of  1898,  when  it  was  all  but  extinct. 

1899,  the  Roman  Catholics  wanted  to  buy  our  church  building, 
and  although  the  deed  had  been  handed  to  the  church  officials,  Song  Si 
thought  she  ought  to  sell  and  receive  back  the  money.  Song  Si's 
cousin  bought  the  building,  waited  a  year  to  get  possession  from  its 
unscrupulous  keeper,  then  left  her  Christian  home  near  a  Christian 
church,  and  for  a  year  lived  in  the  heathen  city,  preaching  Jesus  and 
seeing  no  result. 

1 90 1,  she  hired  a  man  to  teach  school,  and  a  few  began  to  believe, 
one  of  whom  is  now  an  honored  leader.  During  this  5'ear  and  the 
following  3^ear  almost  every  Sunday  two  men  came  from  Sinampo, 
six  miles  away,  and  helped  her  conduct  Sabbath  services. 

1902,  another  teacher  was  hired  for  her  "pauper  school,"  and  forty 
men  from  Sinampo  came  to  repair  the  church. 

1903,  the  group  numbered  twenty,  and  suffered  persecution  from  the 
Roman  Catholics. 

1904,  Russian-Japanese  war.  The  congregation  steadilj^  grew. 
The  building  was  again  repaired.  Opening  of  Chai  Ryung  Station 
practically  decided  upon.  Several  missionaries  visited  the  city  with 
this  in  mind. 

1905,  part  of  Station  site  and  a  temporary  house  bought.  Kin 
Chang  II  was  appointed  leader,  the  church  building  enlarged.  First 
Bible  training  classes  for  men  and  women  of  all  Whang  Hai. 

1906,  Choi  Ung  Kwan  appointed  leader;  An  Ong  Sik  from  P3^eng 
Yang  helper  for  three  months.  First  moveinent  for  a  new  church  build- 
ing. Dr.  and  Mrs.  Whiting  and  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Koons  live  in  Chai 
Ryung. 

1907,  new  church  built;  local  helper  secured. 

1908,  Chai  Rj-ting  Church  becomes  fully  organized  by  the  ordina- 
tion of  two  elders. 

Eastern  Circuit  (Mr.  Hunt  in  charge). — The  first  and  only 
visitation  of  the  churches  was  begun  in  July  of  1907,  and 
completed  in  the  latter  part  of  January,  1908. 

Every  church  save  one  reports  growth.  Many  new  groups  have 
started.  The  salaries  of  the  circuit's  six  helpers  have  been  paid  on 
time.  Two  new  helpers  and  a  local  preacher  were  added,  besides  a 
woman  worker  employed  for  two  months  at  Su  Hoong.  Six  new 
leaders  have  been  appointed,  two  elders  ordained.  Sixty-two  Bible 
study  classes  for  men  were  held  and  forty  classes  for  women,  having 


KOREA— CHAI  RYUNG.  305 

a  total  enrollment  of  3,314.     For  Home  and  Foreign  Missions  $192.50 
were  gladly  contributed. 

There  are  eighty-foiir  regular  places  of  meeting,  besides  the  fifty- 
three  reported  groups,  many  of  which  will  be  numbered  as  groups  as 
soon  as  stiitable  leaders  can  be  developed.  The  large  proportions  of 
the  work  have  curtailed  the  development  of  leaders  by  cutting  off 
personal  work,  personal  supervision  of  leaders  and  helpers,  the  most 
rapid  means  of  developing  the  same. 

Southeastern  Circuit  (Mr.  Sharp  in  charge). — The  Mission  has 
transferred  Yunnan  and  Pai  Chun  Counties  to  this  circuit. 

Until  April  a  co-pastoral  relation  with  Saw  K}aing  Jo  was  maintained 
in  the  western  part,  which  was  then  given  into  his  sole  charge,  while 
Mr.  Sharp  cared  for  the  three  eastern  counties.  The  year  shows  good 
results  in  four  new  groups,  and  an  increase  in  the  force  of  helpers,  as 
well  as  an  increasing  desire  to  assume  the  support  of  those  already 
employed.  Enforced  absence  in  Seoul  and  elsewhere  makes  the 
number  of  baptisms  smaller  than  usual,  but  this  has  been  a  time  of 
laying  foimdations,  and  another  year  will  show  its  value. 

SouiJiwcstern  Circuit  (Pastor  Saw  Kyung  Jo  in  charge). — 
This  work  is  distant  and  has  no  natural  causes  to  bring  its 
people  toward  Chai  Ryung;  but  the  people  are  becoming 
cordially  affiliated  and  the  work  shows  most  gratifying  growth 
in  numbers,  strength,  and  financial  matters. 

It  now  siipports  Pastor  Saw,  three  helpers  and  a  Bible  woman. 
The  fighting  between  Japanese  soldiers  and  the  insurgents  has  been 
particularly  severe  in  this  district,  and  Christians  as  well  as  others 
have  had  much  to  endure.  At  the  time  of  the  Summer  class  the  situa- 
tion was  so  grave  that  Pastor  Saw  and  two  of  his  helpers  felt  obliged 
to  stay  at  home. 

In  April  the  military  officer  at  Chaing  Nyun  Eup  ordered  the 
church  there  to  be  closed.  Pastor  Saw  sent  to  Chai  Rj^ung  for  advice, 
and  Mr.  Koons  came.  He  took  the  matter  up  with  the  civil  and  mili- 
tary authorities,  and  the  church  was  imniediatel}^  opened,  and  the 
accusation  that  "the  Christians  are  all  the  same  as  the  insurgents" 
was  officially  withdrawn.  Since  this  time,  though  the  Christians 
have  suffered  with  the  rest  of  the  people,  there  has  been  no  action 
taken  against  the  Church  by  either  side. 

Northwestern  Circuit  (Mr.  Koons  in  charge). — This  work 
includes  six  and  one-half  counties,  in  which  about  one  in  one 
hundred  of  the  people  are  Christians.  The  5"ear's  work  has 
been  most  encouraging,  in  spite  of  the  fact  that  the  pastor 
has  been  unable  to  give  it  the  attention  that  it  deserves. 

Six  new  groups  have  been  started  in  strategic  points.  Almost 
all  the  older  groups  show  good  gains.  Two  churches  have  increased 
their  sessions  by  electing  a  second  elder  each,  and  the  first  elder  has 
been  chosen  in  the  largest  group,  at  Sam  Sang.  Seven  helpers  are 
regularly  employed,  and  two  others  part  of  the  time.  One-fourth 
of  one  man's  salary  is  paid  from  Board  funds.  The  development  of 
these  helpers  is  an  encouraging  feattire  of  this  work. 

Remarkable  zeal  for  education  is  manifested  by  the  people  of  Anak 


306  KOREA— CHAI  RYUNG. 

Eup,  both  Christians  and  unbelievers.  Elder  Choi  Quan  Ok,  of 
Pyeng  Yang,  is  the  leader,  and  is  doing  excellent  work.  Last  Summer 
they  had  a  Normal  class  of  about  loo,  and  this  year  there  are  400  or 
more,  with  talk  of  an  advanced  school.  There  is  no  reason  why  this 
should  not  be  of  great  benefit  to  all,  both  Christians  and  unbelievers, 
if  it  is  kept  to  its  business  of  education. 

EDUCATIONAL. — This  has  been  a  year  of  crisis  in  educa- 
tional matters,  here  as  elsewhere.  The  effort  has  been  to 
lead  the  Church  to  a  sane  position  on  the  subject. 

That  the  Presbyterial  Committee,  through  the  Sessions  and  pastors, 
should  control  our  church  schools  has  been  laid  down  as  a  principle, 
and  this  has  been  generally  well  received  and  obeyed. 

The  Committee  annomiced  the  following  as  essentials  of  a  Christian 
school:  (i)  The  local  School  Committee  which  may  be  appointed  by 
the  pastor  or  Session,  or  elected  by  the  church  with  the  consent  of 
the  pastor  or  Session,  is  to  be  composed  of  baptized  Christians.  (2) 
The  teacher  must  be  approved  by  the  pastor,  Session,  or  helper. 
(3)  The  school  must  have  daily  prayers.  (4)  The  official  curriculum 
is  to  be  followed. 

A  proposition  that  the  Presbyterial  Committee  fotmd  an  academy 
was  passed  and  preparations  for  beginning  on  a  small  scale  are  now 
making.  The  Normal  class  was  in  session  during  the  Summer  class, 
and  at  that  time  educational  matters  were  taken  up  and  discussedat 
length  by  both  school-teachers  and  church  officers,  we  believe  with 
good  effect. 

MEDICAL.— 

The  medical  work  for  foreigners  has  been  light.  The  hospital, 
while  not  run  to  its  full  capacity,  has  done  a  large  and  excellent  work. 
There  has  been  an  abundance  of  variety,  from  a  man  chewed  up  by  a 
tiger  to  a  girl  who  fell  down  a  well,  breaking  both  arms  and  both 
legs.  It  took  most  of  a  half-day  to  match  the  pieces  and  get  her 
together  again,  but  she  is  getting  well,  and  will  be  as  good  as  new  in 
time.  Both  Japanese  soldiers  and  Korean  insurgents  have  been  cared 
for,  sometimes  simultaneously. 

Beside  the  Station  medical  work,  Dr.  Whiting  gave  six 
weeks  to  Syen  Chyun.  He  has  also  taught  a  class  of  medical 
students  part  of  the  time,  and  began  a  class  for  personal 
workers,  which  is  showing  good  results.  The  first  assistant, 
Yu  Mong  Talk,  has  become  a  student  for  the  ministry,  and  is 
now  a  leader  in  the  city  church.

CHONG  JU  STATION. 

The  members  of  the  Station  have  had  a  busy  year.  Mr. 
and  Mrs.  F.  S.  Miller,  who  so  long  toiled  unaided,  are  now 
gladdened  by  seeing  Mr.  Kagin  so  far  along  in  his  language 
study  that  he  can  help  in  the  work,  while  the  arrival  of  Dr. 
and  Mrs.  Purviance  gives  the  long  desired  medical  missionary. 
Helpful  visits  from  Mr.  F.  M.  Brockman,  of  the  Seoul  Y.  M.  C. 
A.,  Dr.  Eva  H.  Field,  and  Mr.  G.  S.  McCune  gladdened  the 
Station. 

THE  FIELD. — The  recent  census  gives  the  population  of 
Northern  and  Southern  Chung  Chong  Provinces  as  1,200,000, 
and  the  population  of  Chong  Ju  County  as  84,000.  These 
84,000  live  in  900  villages  within  an  average  radius  of  about 
fifteen  miles  of  Chong  Ju.  A  division  of  territory  is  being 
made  with  the  Northern  Methodists,  which  we  trust  will  soon 
be  consummated,  giving  to  each  Station  a  clear  and  adequate 
field. 

The  Tillage. — The  field  is  divided  into  three  circuits,  each  of  which 
should  have  a  missionary  in  charge  of  it.  A  helper  and  a  colporteur 
travel  each  circuit.  These  workers  are,  with  one  exception,  men  of 
long  trial  and  good  record.  Two  colporteurs  from  August  to  June  sold 
2,906  books,  attending  140  markets.  The  usual  average  of  each  col- 
porteur is  200  miles  of  travel  per  month  and  300  people  to  whom  they 
have  explained  the  Gospel  at  length.  We  used  about  60,000  leaflets 
during  the  year. 

The  Increase .—Vart  of  the  increase  this  year  was  due  to  division  of 
territory  with  the  Southern  Methodists,  which  gave  us  ten  groups 
and  three  meeting  places,  with  fourteen  full  members  and  forty-two 
catechumens. 

There  are  now  luider  our  care  fifty-four  groups  and  meeting  places, 
with  an  average  attendance  of  975,  including  176  members  and  247 
catechumens,  who  gave  §434.90  gold  or  2,898  days'  wages  during  the 
year. 

MEN'S  BIBLE  CLASSES.— Swium£?r  Classes.— K  helpers' 
class  was  held  during  July,  attended  by  the  colporteurs  also. 
At  the  close  of  this  class  one  for  leaders  was  held,  but  the 
insurrection  and  its  attendant  dangers  greatly  reduced  the 
attendance. 

Winter  Classes. — The  regular  men's  class  was  held  in  Jan- 
uary. It  was  preceded  by  a  week  of  special  prayer,  which 
prepared  the  city  men  to  add  extra  love  and  zeal  to  their 
reception  of  the  country  brethren. 

Sixty-five  attended  this  class,  double  the  attendance  of  last  year. 
Some,  including  two  boys,  walked  fifty-four  miles,  carrying  on  their 
backs  the  food  needed  during  the  class.  Being  too  poor  to  bring  rice, 
they  brought  millet.  The  daily  conferences  on  spiritual  and  practical 
subjects  were  especially  interesting. 

Six  other  classes  were  held  in  the  larger  centres  by  the  helpers, 


308  KOREA— CHOXG  JU. 

assisted  by  a  home  missionarj'-  supported  by  the  Pj'eng  Yang  Church 
The  attendance  amounted  to  170. 

WOMAN'S  WORK.— City.— The  growth  and  development 
among  the  women  in  the  Chong  Ju  Church  has  been  encourag- 
ing.    The  average  attendance  has  been  sixty. 

The  Christian  women  often  take  a  few  tracts  for  non-Christians 
whom  they  visit  in  their  homes.  The  year  has  added  a  goodly  num- 
ber of  new  faces. 

Some  visiting  has  been  done  in  nearby  villages,  but  as  yet  we 
have  no  one  who  can  undertake  this  as  regular  work.  In  the  city  also 
a  large  work  is  waiting  to  be  done.  Several  of  the  women  are  taking 
Sunday-school  classes,  and  teachers  are  thus  being  developed.  Mrs. 
Miller's  Thursday  class  has  drawn  many  hearts  nearer  to  the  Saviour. 

Country. — A  Mrs.  O.,  who  Hves  six  miles  from  Chong  Ju, 
has  been  responding  to  calls  from  the  country  churches  to 
teach  their  women.  She  is  doing  an  excellent  work.  Having 
known  the  power  of  the  Gospel,  not  only  to  save,  but  to  com- 
fort in  time  of  trial,  her  teaching  is  accompanied  by  a  clear 
personal  testimony  to  its  saving  and  keeping  power. 

Midwinter  Class. — Dr.  Field  and  her  Korean  helper  taught 
this  class,  the  mornings  being  given  wholly  to  Bible  study. 

It  was  during  the  Korean  New  Year,  when  evangelistic  sersdces  were 
conducted  every  evening  in  the  church.  The  city  was  divided,  two 
of  the  women  to  a  section;  and,  after  special  prayer  for  the  evening 
service  and  for  the  non-Christians,  these  women  went  from  house 
to  house.  Sometimes  this  was  an  opporttinity  for  only  a  few  words, 
with  the  giving  of  a  tract  and  an  invitation  to  the  evening  service. 
At  other  places  they  were  invited  to  sit  down  in  the  house,  where  their 
message  was  heard  with  much  interest,  and  they  were  urged  to  come 
again. 

Girls'  Day-school. — This  was  open  during  the  Summer, 
when  one  of  the  advanced  girls  from  the  boarding  school  at 
Seoul  came  down  and  taught.  Later  it  had  to  be  closed  for 
lack  of  a  teacher. 

CITY  EVANGELISM.— For  two  weeks  during  the  Korean 
holidays  the  city  Christians,  men,  women  and  boys,  made  a 
canvass  of  the  city  and  nearby  villages.  Leaflets  and  mimeo- 
graph invitations  to  the  evening  meetings  were  distributed. 
At  these  meetings  the  stereopticon  was  used,  and  won  close 
attention  to  the  Gospel.  The  Christians  followed  with  a 
series  of  personal  testimonies.  Some  evenings  about  300 
were  present. 

Market  Preaching. — Chong  Ju  market  is  one  of  the  large 
markets  of  Korea,  being  attended  ordinarily  by  6,000  people 
ever}'  fifth  day.  Mr.  Kagin  has  built  a  preaching  booth  in 
the  market,  and  has  given  much  time  to  this  work.  Before 
the  holidays,  when  the  markets  are  largest,  sixteen  workers 


KOREA— KANG  KAI.  309 

distributed  8,000  leaflets  in  less  than  an  hour,  and  all  were  not 
supplied.  The  people  at  the  market  must  have  numbered 
10,000.  The  helpers,  colporteurs,  and  other  Christians  have 
taken  good  advantage  of  these  opportunities. 

EDUCATIONAL  WORK.— Summer  Schools.— Dming  the 
Summer  the  city  school-boN's,  of  their  own  accord,  organ- 
ized night  schools  in  different  parts  of  the  city  for  the 
"Wood  Boys";  the  latter  paying  the  expenses. 

Wednesday  and  Sunday  evenings  the  pupils  attended  the  prayer 
meeting  and  gave  quiet  attention  to  the  services.  This  brought  some 
thirty  boys  under  the  influence  of  the  Gospel  who  would  not  have 
thought  of  coming  to  Church. 

During  the  Summer,  also  an  advanced  school  was  taught  by  a 
Wells  Training  School  graduate,  and  was  attended  by  a  group  of  the 
most  promising  young  men  in  the  city.      It  was  self-supporting. 

Chang  Ju  Day-school. — When  the  missionaries  returned 
from  the  annual  meeting,  they  found  the  school  scattered 
and  the  schoolhouse  turned  into  an  outpost,  as  it  stands  partly 
on  the  city  wall  on  the  side  toward  the  insurgent  forces. 

The  country  boys  were  afraid  to  attend  all  Winter;  some  of  the 
city  boys  had  fled  with  their  families;  those  who  had  stipported  the 
school  held  fast  to  their  ready  cash,  and  the  school  ran  all  Winter  with 
one  teacher  and  twenty  boys.  In  the  Spring  the  school  took  a  new 
lease  on  life.  $17.00  gold  a  month  was  raised  by  the  Koreans,  and 
doubled  by  the  missionaries,  and  an  excellent  teacher  secured.  He  is 
an  earnest  Christian,  formerly  vice-governor  of  one  of  the  provinces, 
and  was  well  educated  in  Japan.  The  village  deeded  a  tile  building 
to  the  school,  so  we  hope  to  have  a  good  school  in  a  well  adapted  build- 
ing in  the  Fall. 

Country  Scliools. — Schools  are  maintained  by  five  of  the  churches, 
but  as  yet  the  work  here  is  too  3'oung  to  have  this  form  of  activity 
pressed  upon  it. 

MEDICAL  WORK. — Dr.  Purviance  spent  the  first'months 
after  his  arrival  in  Syen  Chyun  caring  for  the  missionaries 
and  medical  work  there  in  the  furlough  absence  of  Dr.  Shar- 
rocks.  On  the  latter's  return.  Dr.  Purviance  came  to  Chong 
Ju  for  his  permanent  residence ;  but  this  was  at  the  end  of  the 
Mission  year. 

The  Duncan  Hospital. — Great  encouragement  has  been  afforded  us 
by  the  gift  of  $5,000  gold  from  Mrs.  John  P.  Duncan,  of  New  York 
City,  for  a  hospital  in  Chong  Ju.  Plans  are  being  drawn  for  the  hos- 
pital, and  we  hope  soon  to  have  medical  work  added  to  the  activities 
of  the  Station  for  the  salvation  of  this  million  people. 

KANG  KAI  STATION. 

One  night,  as  the  native  helper  was  preaching  in  a  village 
300  miles  north  of  Kang  Kai,  the  innkeeper  mentioned  having 
known  a  Korean  named  Lee,  a  colporteur  sent  by  Mr.  John 


310  KOREA— Iv.\NG  KAI. 

Ross,  of  Mukden,  between  1880  and  1S85,  to  distribute  his 
Korean  translation  of  the  Bible.  He  laughed  as  he  told  how 
the  colporteur  threw  great  numbers  of  the  Bibles  into  the 
Yalu  River,  or  burned  them  in  great  piles,  returning  to  Muk- 
den for  suppHes  and  salary.  Then  the  helper  turned  and 
asked  him  if  he  had  not  also  known  wdiat  Mr.  Ross  told  the 
men  who  went  complaining  of  the  colporteur's  dishonesty, 
that  "Whoever  then  drinks  the  waters  of  the  Yalu  or  lives  in 
the  houses  on  which  fall  the  ashes  of  burning  Bible,  will  believe 
in  Christ?"  Then  the  helper  told  how  there  were  600  Chris- 
tians in  Kang  Kai,  100  in  Tung  Kang,  300  in  Cho  San,  and 
so  on  down  the  Yalu  to  Wiju  County,  to  where  there  are  forty 
churches  and  800  Christians  in  Wiju  City  alone ;  then  of  what 
he  had  seen  in  Pyeng  Yang  and  even  in  the  distant  city  of 
Seoul.  Thus  he  showed  him  how  Mr.  Ross's  words,  spoken 
possibly  before  even  Dr.  Allen  reached  Korea,  were  coming 
true,  and  he  urged  the  innkeeper  to  beheve. 

At  the  Cho  San  class  last  Winter,  where  280  Christians  were  gath- 
ered, Leader  Tyung,  of  the  Ean  Church,  was  urging  us  not  to  be  afraid 
to  cast  all  aside  for  Christ;  and  he  told  the  following  stor}*:  About 
twentj'  years  ago  a  Korean  merchant  away  up  the  Yalu  sent  a  boat- 
load of  beans  down  to  Wiju  to  market.  The  rainy  season  was  on  and 
unheard-of  floods  had  covered  all  the  lowlands.  The  boatmen  could 
not  find  the  proposed  landing  and  drifted  helplessly  down  among  the 
islands.  Men  and  women,  clinging  to  trees  and  roofs,  climbed  on  the 
boat  as  it  drifted  by,  till  it  began  to  sink.  Then  the  head  boatman 
ordered  the  beans  cast  overboard.  As  the  boat  grew  lighter  other 
helpless  people  were  taken  in,  till  the  boat  was  filled  with  those  whose 
lives  were  being  saved.  Then  all  worked  the  oars  and  landed  in  safety 
a  little  below  Antung. 

A  few  weeks  later,  as  the  boatmen  with  great  fear  told  their  master 
how  his  cargo  and  wealth  were  lost,  the  good  man  wept  as  he  thanked 
the  men  for  doing  such  noble  ser\-ice  for  him.  And  as  Leader  T5"ung 
told  the  story,  a  double  interest  fixed  the  hearts  of  all  who  heard,  for 
all  knew  of  that  terrible  year  of  the  flood  when  so  many  thousands 
lost  their  lives,  and  there  before  him  sat  men  who  had  lost  homes  and 
all  in  its  waters  and  had  gone  up  the  Yalu  to  make  a  new  start. 

A  great  migration  took  place  that  year,  and  to-day  as  one  goes  along 
the  upper  Yalu  he  is  surprised  to  find  how  many  of  the  best  families 
were  once  wealthy  farmers  in  the  Wiju  bottoms.  Their  relatives  are 
still  in  Wiju  or  Nyong  Chyun,  and  several  of  the  strongest  groups  of 
Christians  up  the  Yalu  were  started  by  men  who,  while  visiting  their 
old  homes  in  Wiju,  heard  the  Gospel  and  returned  to  preach  it  to  the 
salvation  of  their  up-river  friends. 

Fourteen  years  ago  Dr.  Moffett  walked  into  Wiju  City  and 
stopped  in  front  of  a  shop  to  make  a  small  purchase.  A 
crowd  gathered  and  he  gave  some  Christian  pamphlets  to 
them  and  spoke  to  them  of  Christ.  One  of  the  men  standing 
there  was  named  Chay  who  lived  in  Potul  Kol,  200  li  north 
of  Kang  Kai.  He  took  his  pamphlets  home,  read  them, 
and  laid  them  in  a  box,  where  they  remained  for  eleven  years. 


KOREA— KANG  KAI.  311 

Three  or  four  years  ago  Dr.  Moffett  and  Mr.  Lee  sent  a  Christian 
named  Tang  up  the  Yalu  River  to  get  lumber  for  building  in  Pyeng 
Yang,  and  he  put  up  at  an  inn  at  the  mouth  of  the  Potul  Kol  valley. 
One  day  the  man  Chay  went  down  the  valley  on  business  and  stopped 
at  the  inn,  and  Tang  began  preaching  to  him.  Chay  told  how  about 
eleven  years  before  he  had  seen  a  man  in  Wiju  called  Ma  Moksa,  and 
had  brought  home  some  books  and  put  them  away.  Then,  to  his  sur- 
prise. Tang  told  how  it  was  Ma  Moksa  who  had  sent  him  for  lumber. 

The  result  was  that  Chay  accepted  Christ  and  went  back  up  the 
valle}^  got  out  his  books  and  began  preaching.  For  three  years  now 
his  group  has  grown  rapidly  in  one  of  the  deepest,  darkest  mountain 
valleys  in  the  North. 

Christmas,  1907,  ten  strong  men  came  down  the  valley,  met  the 
missionary,  put  his  sleighs  in  charge  of  the  innkeeper,  for  not  even  a 
pack  pony  could  go  up  any  farther,  and,  with  the  loads  on  their  backs, 
started  up  the  valley.  Snow  was  three  feet  deep.  Christmas  Eve 
was  spent  at  a  Christian  home,  and  the  next  morning,  twenty  li  farther 
up,  about  sixty  Christians  gathered  to  spend  a  happy  Christmas 
Day.     They  are  now  building  a  new  church  and  more  are  believing. 

All  along  the  Yalu  there  are  valleys  like  the  Potul  Kol, 
and  one  wonders  if  there  are  not  as  many  people  hidden  away 
in  each  valley,  and  if  some  day  they  may  not  all  know  Christ 
and  be  building  churches. 

In  1899  a  group  of  young  men  in  Kang  Kai  began  calling 
themselves  Christians,  but  lived  in  sin.  With  the  rising  of 
the  Boxer  troubles  in  Manchuria,  fleeing  Koreans  reached 
Kang  Kai  and  told  of  the  massacres.  At  Suppodong  the 
refugees  started  a  church  which  now  enrolls  eighty  believers. 
But  in  Kang  Kai  the  story  of  the  Boxers  ended  the  pretence 
of  the  band  of  young  men  to  be  Christians. 

Meantime  Kim  Kwan  Gun,  a  colporteur,  went  up  to  sell  Bibles. 
Reaching  Kang  Kai  during  1900,  he  could  find  no  trace  of  the  group 
But  a  young  boy,  fifteen  years  old,  followed  him  to  his  inn  and  asked 
him  about  the  Gospel.  So  interested  did  the  colporteur  become  in 
the  boy  that  he  remained  in  the  inn  for  nearly  a  week,  doing  little  else 
than  teaching  him.  The  boy's  name  was  Lee  Hak  Myun.  He 
brought  all  his  money,  bought  a  Bible  and  tracts  and  became  a  Chris- 
tian. 

It  was  about  this  time  that  Syen  Chyun  Station  was  opened,  and  in 
December,  1901,  Mr.  George  Leek,  who  died  at  the  American  mines 
on  his  way  home,  made  his  trip  to  Kang  Kai.  In  his  diary  of  that  trip, 
under  date  of  December  7,  he  wrote :  "Spent  the  day  in  gathering  facts 
in  the  history  of  the  Kingdom  in  the  Kol.  The  first  believer  is  a  young 
man  seventeen  years  old  and  is  very  active."  The  five  whom  Mr. 
Leek  examined  and  admitted  to  the  catechumenate  that  day  were 
led  to  Christ  by  this  boy. 

Next  year  Mr.  Whittemore  visited  Kang  Kai  and  admitted  thirteen 
more  catechumens,  but  baptized  only  one,  this  boy,  the  first  baptized 
man  in  Kang  Kai,  and  made  him  deacon.  Mr.  Ross  took  the  work 
during  1903  and  1904  and  raised  the  young  man  to  the  office  of  leader. 
When  Mr.  Ross  went  to  Kang  Kai,  in  December,  1904,  he  found  about 
150  Christians,  and  Lee  was  still  the  life  and  power  of  the  church,  with 
groups  starting  up  in  other  places.

Mills  to  go  with  one  other  family  and  open  Kang  Kai  Station 
ends  a  long  period  of  waiting.  The  growth  of  the  church,  the 
need  of  more  immediate  guidance  and  discipline,  made  it 
imperative  that  something  be  done. 

Land  has  already  been  purchased  through  the  gifts  of  Mrs. 
Gamble,  and  other  California  ladies,  for  the  main  part  of  the 
compound  in  an  attractive  location.  Mr.  and  Mrs.  John  S. 
Kennedy,  of  New  York,  have  generously  given  money  for  a 
hospital  and  two  residences  have  been  provided.  Money 
given  by  the  Tenth  Church  of  Philadelphia  for  a  launch  for  use 
on  the  river  will  be  an  important  factor  in  the  equipment  of 
the  Station. 

STATISTICS. — Kang  Kai  territor}^  extends  from  the 
Kwang  Shung  group  700  li  straight  north  through  Kang  Kai 
to  Tung  Kang;  from  the  Mama  Hei  Church  on  the  east  it  is 
300  li  to  the  Chinese  groups  on  the  west.  There  are  twenty

HEXICO  niSSION. 

The  annual  meeting  of  the  Mexico  Mission  held  in  the  City 
of  Mexico,  January  20  to  28,  1909,  was  the  twenty-fifth.  No 
special  exercises  were  held  to  commemorate  this  event.  It 
is  suggestive,  however,  that  the  Mission  opened  wide  its  doors 
to  the  native  brethren.  Delegates  were  present  from  the 
National  Synod,  from  the  Zacatecas  Presbytery,  and  from 
the  Presbytery  of  the  City  of  Mexico.  The  Mission  report 
states: 

In  view  of  the  presence  of  these  Mexican  delegates,  much  of  our 
conference  and  discussion  drifted  into  the  Spanish  language ;  but  in 
spite  of  the  bilingual  character  of  the  meetings,  we  never  felt  more 
fully  the  unity  of  the  Spirit  as  we  sat  in  family  fashion  in  the  parlor 
of  the  Girls'  Noi-mal  School,  while  the  fire  glowing  on  the  hearth 
reminded  us  of  the  homeland,  and  the  presence  of  the  native  brethren 
linked  us  closely  and  constantly  to  the  native  Church. 

Many  things  were  settled  that  possibly  we  would  have  had  to  post- 
pone, or  else  expose  ourselves  to  the  danger  of  being  misunderstood 
later  on  by  the  native  Church ;  but  with  the  presence  of  official  dele- 
gates from  the  synod,  we  came  to  conclusions  which  we  knew  would 
be  satisfactory  to  all.  We  think  it  is  not  too  much  to  say  that  the 
last  great  obstacle  to  a  sincere  and  frank  understanding  of  general 
matters  between  missionaries  and  natives  has  been  removed. 

The  spirit  of  independence  and  of  self-support  is  growing 
in  the  native  Church.  During  the  year  a  communication 
was  received  by  the  Board  from  the  Zacatecas  Presbytery 
and  the  Merida  Church  regarding  properties  held  by  the 
Board  in  Mexico.  Our  fellow-Christians  in  Mexico  wanted  to 
be  fully  assured  that  the  moneys  which  they  had  invested  in 
churches  and  schools  should  not  be  diverted  at  any  time  to 
other  purposes.  The  Board  was  more  than  willing  to  assure 
the  members  of  these  churches  that  the  monies  thus  contrib- 
uted should  be  sacredly  held  for  the  extension  of  the  kingdom 
of  God. 

In  view  of  the  increasing  emigration  of  Mexicans  across  the 
northern  frontier,  a  committee  was  appointed  by  the  Mission 
to  consider  this  whole  matter,  and  keep  in  touch  with  the 
Presbyteries  in  the  United  States  which  include  Mexican 
congregations,  as  well  as  with  pastors  of  English-speaking 
churches  within  whose  neighborhood  any  large  numbers  of 
Mexicans  are  found. 

It  is  of  interest  to  note  that  the  Mexico-Texas  Presbytery, 
made  up  entirely  of  Mexican  congregations  in  Texas,  was 

315

recently  organized.  This  Presbytery  will  be  ready  to  co- 
operate with  the  Mexico  Mission  in  caring  for  those  who  come 
to  reside  temporarily  or  permanently  under  the  Stars  and 
Stripes. 

At  the  Mission  meeting  steps  were  taken  looking  to  the 
union  of  the  American  Presbyterian  Church  and  the  Union 
Evangelical  Church  in  Mexico  City.  The  articles  drawn  up 
by  a  joint  committee  have  been  approved  by  both  parties, 
assuring  not  only  the  evangelical  character  of  the  union,  but 
the  maintenance  in  the  new  organization  of  a  living  interest 
in  the  Mission  work  on  the  part  of  the  members  of  these 
English-speaking  churches. 

The  notable  event  of  the  year  was  the  Upper  Chamber 
meeting  in  San  Luis  Potosi,  and  the  work  of  grace  which  fol- 
lowed this  gathering.  The  need  of  a  revival  spirit  had  been 
deeply  felt  for  a  long  time  by  many  in  the  Mission,  and  not  a 
few  groups  of  believers  had  agreed  to  make  it  a  matter  of 
united,  daily  prayer.  An  attempt  to  stir  up  strife  on  the 
part  of  a  small  body  of  men  had  resulted  in  creating  a  very 
strong  desire  for  union  and  for  a  larger  blessing  from  the 
Spirit.  After  much  prayer  it  was  proposed  that  a  group  of 
earnest  workers  be  gathered  together  to  wait  on  the  Lord,  as 
did  the  disciples  after  the  ascension,  until  the  Holy  vSpirit 
should  manifest  His  will.  A  committee  was  named  to  select 
representatives  from  the  various  Christian  bodies  at  work 
in  Mexico,  and  a  list  of  twenty-three  was  prepared.  These 
names  were  selected  irrespective  of  their  affiliation,  and  purely 
from  the  point  of  view  of  the  most  spiritually-minded  men  and 
women  of  the  Church.  The  matter  was  brought  to  the  atten- 
tion of  the  whole  Church,  and  a  call  was  issued  for  a  week  of 
prayer  in  which  all  the  churches  joined  during  the  time  of 
the  Upper  Chamber  meetings.  The  meetings  were  held  at 
San  Luis  Potosi  from  October  13  to  15.  Twenty-six  repre- 
sentatives came  from  other  cities,  and  there  were  present 
nine  from  San  Luis  Potosi.  The  motto  chosen  was  "We 
would  see  Jesus."  All  the  churches  at  work  in  Mexico  were 
represented  save  one.  The  gathering  was  held  in  the  parlor 
of  a  Christian  home.  There  was  no  program,  and  no  prepared 
addresses.  Most  of  the  time  was  spent  in  prayer  and  confes- 
sion. It  was  not  long  before  the  presence  of  the  Spirit  became 
manifest.  A  great  wave  of  enthusiasm  and  expectation  came 
over  all  the  delegates  which  broke  out  in  the  public  meeting 
the  first  night,  and  in  a  great  revival  which  continued  through- 
out the  sessions  and  was  communicated  by  the  delegates  to 
many  churches. 

The  good  effects  of  this  Upper  Chamber  meeting  was  mani- 
fest in  many  ways.  There  were  conversions,  backsliders  were 
reclaimed,  and  a  spirit  of  unity  and  aggressive  evangelism 
was  manifest  in  many  places.

The  changes  in  the  INlission  during  the  year  have  not  been 
many.  In  September,  the  Rev.  Lansing  B.  Bloom,  who  went 
to  the  field  in  1907,  and  had  given  evidence  of  becoming 
an  efficient  and  self-denying  missionary,  was  compelled  on 
account  of  severe  illness  to  leave  Mexico,  and  he  and  Mrs. 
Bloom  have  since  resigned  from  the  Mission. 

Mr.  and  Mrs.  W.  E.  Vanderbilt  were  greatly  afflicted  in  the 
death,  on  December  13,  of  their  little  daughter  Katherine. 

Miss  Mary  McDermid,  who  was  appointed  a  missionary  in 
1897  and  who  for  all  these  years  has  proved  a  most  faithful 
worker,  resigned,  to  become  the  wife  of  the  Rev.  R.  M.  Min- 
ton,  formerly  pastor  of  the  Union  Church  of  Mexico  City. 

Miss  Anita  Boyce,  who  was  appointed  in  1907,  resigned 
February  i,  and  was  married  to  Mr.  George  H.  Billmian.

MEXICO  CITY. 

EVANGELISTIC— The    Rev.    Arcadio    Morales,    as    in 
previous   years,    has   had   charge   of   the   Church   of   Divino- 
318 


MEXICO— MEXICO  CITY.  319 

Salvador.  The  work  was  more  or  less  disturbed  during  the 
year  on  account  of  the  decision  of  the  Federal  Government 
to  widen  Hospital  Real,  the  street  on  which  the  church 
building  is  situated.  In  September  the  Government  advised 
the  Mission  of  its  intention  to  purchase  the  property,  and 
asked  for  the  keys  of  the  church  in  order  that  the  proper 
measurements  might  be  taken.  At  the  time  of  the  Mis- 
sion meeting  no  agreement  had  been  reached  as  to  the 
price. 

The  relations  with  the  Government  have  been  most  friendly 
in  this  matter,  and  the  Mission  will  lose  nothing  by  the  trans- 
action. As  evidence  of  the  spiritual  life  of  the  church  it  may 
be  mentioned  that  the  Christian  Endeavor  Society  of  the 
Divino  Salvador  Church  gave  $6,611.54  Mexican  for  the 
erection  of  Immanuel  Chapel  in  Mexico  City. 

The  Rev.  William  Wallace,  who  is  President  of  the  Coyoa- 
can  College  and  Seminary,  during  the  school  vacation,  accom- 
panied by  Mr.  Morales,  took  a  ten  days'  trip  into  the  Ozumba 
District,  some  sixty  miles  from  the  City  of  Mexico.  He 
reports : 

It  is  one  of  the  most  interesting  fields  that  I  have  ever  visited. 
We  have  there  five  congregations  within  a  radius  of  eight  miles  and 
all  of  them,  with  one  exception,  made  up  of  pure  Indians,  who  have 
taken  up  the  Protestant  faith  with  hearty  enthusiasm.  In  my  whole 
district  I  am  the  only  ordained  man,  and  as  a  result  there  has  been 
very  little  done  in  the  way  of  organization.  During  this  visit,  however, 
Dr.  Morales  accompanied  me  during  part  of  the  time,  establishing  three 
Christian  Endeavor  Societies  in  two  of  the  churches,  and  I  had  the 
pleasure  of  ordaining  elders  and  deacons  in  three  of  the  churches. 
In  one  little  town  of  1,200  we  had  audiences  of  150,  only  about  half 
of  whom  could  crowd  into  the  little  chapel.  Great  interest  was  devel- 
oped in  the  services,  and  after  a  whole  day  spent  in  careful  examination 
and  conferences  with  the  candidates,  thirty-two  were  received  on 
baptism. 

EDUCATIONAL. — Coyoacan  College  and  Seminary. — The 
great  event  of  the  year  was  the  revival  growing  out  of 
the  Upper  Chamber  meetings.  With  perhaps  three  or  four 
exceptions,  the  revival  reached  and  affected  visibly  every 
one  of  the  students  and  all  the  faculty. 

November  12,  the  day  designated  by  the  Mexican  Churches 
as  their  national  thanksgiving  day,  the  students  met  for  half 
an  hour  of  prayer.  They  began  to  pray  for  their  families; 
the  names  of  individuals  were  presented  in  prayer  amid  sobs 
and  broken  utterances.  The  meeting  was  continued  under 
the  Spirit  in  the  hands  of  the  students  for  three  hours,  without 
any  one  being  conscious  of  the  lapse  of  time. 

How  they  did  pray  for  those  at  home!     And  the  first  answer 


320  MEXICO— MEXICO  CITY. 

came  from  away  down  in  Yucatan.  Antonio  Ferraez  came 
in  one  day  a  couple  of  wxeks  later,  his  frank,  handsome  face 
beaming.  He  had  just  had  a  letter  from  his  mother,  and  she 
and  her  daughter  "believed." 

The  changed  lives  of  many  of  the  students  was  the  surest 
indication  of  the  work  of  God's  Spirit  in  their  hearts. 

Converse  Hall  was  practically  completed  during  the  year. 
Part  of  the  flooring  and  plastering  was  done  most  satisfac- 
torily by  the  students. 

As  we  have  no  graduating  class  this  year  we  decided  to  close  the 
school  year  by  inviting  the  Presbytery  of  the  City  of  Mexico  to  meet  with 
us,  extending  them  the  hospitality  of  the  college.  There  were  present 
eleven  ministers  and  eight  elders,  besides  a  number  of  visiting  friends. 
Our  sixty  iron  beds,  secured  through  the  liberality  of  friends  at  home, 
and  our  new  dining-room  service  made  it  possible  for  students,  minis- 
ters, and  Indian  elders  to  be  our  common  guests;  one  brought  his 
whole  family  to  live  with  us. 

Mrs.  William  Wallace,  who  has  been  untiring  in  her  efforts 
to  secure  proper  equipment  for  the  seminary,  writes: 

The  last  payment  on  the  beds  has  been  made,  though  the  last  S25 
was  taken  from  the  general  fund.  More  than  enough  to  pay  for  the 
beds  has  come  in,  but  other  things  had  to  be  had,  and  at  once,  so  a  part 
of  the  bed  iund  was  used.  The  sixty  beds  have  cost,  with  freight 
from  Saltillo  and  hauling  to  Coyoacan,  a  little  more  than  Si, 200,  but 
it  is  comforting  to  know  that  the  seminary  will  never  need  new  beds 
in  our  day  and  generation.  The  school  dining-room  is  also  substan- 
tially equipped. 

There  are  nearly  enough  wardrobes  to  go  ai"ound.  One  dozen 
washstands  have  been  purchased  and  muslin  curtains  made  for  the 
dormitory  windows  and  the  wardrobes.  Though  much  is  still  lacking, 
we  are  less  ashamed  of  our  domestic  department  than  of  yore,  and  the 
change  upon  the  students  _is  marked.  They  are  much  more  orderly 
and  take  pride  in  keeping  their  rooms  neat  and  clean.  With  the  new 
baths  and  sanitary  arrangements,  they  are  a  nice,  clean,  wholesome 
set  of  young  fellows  which  make  my  motherly  heart  swell  with  pride. 

Mr.  R.  A.  Brown  spent  part  of  his  time  in  the  United  States, 
and  the  rest  of  the  year  he  attended  to  his  usual  duties  in 
connection  with  the  Coyoacan  College  and  Seminary. 

The  Girls'  Normal  School. — During  Miss  McDermid's 
absence  on  furlough,  Miss  Hunt  and  Miss  Cathcart  had  charge 
of  the  Girls'  Normal  School.  After  Miss  McDermid's  resig- 
nation the  school  was  left  in  charge  of  Miss  Hunt. 

Our  school  has  just  closed  its  twentj'-sixth  year,  a  remarkable  year 
in  some  respects. 

Increased  facilities  in  dormitory  room  and  dining  room  enabled 
us  to  accept  more  boarders  than  ever  before.  Our  primarj^  depart- 
ment seems  to  have  been  popular  in  the  neighborhood  and  has  had  a 
larger  registration  than  formerly. 

We  have  had  three  American  missionaries  and  six  Mexican  j^oung 
women  on  the  faculty.  The  graduating  class  is  the  largest  we  have 
sent  out. 


MEXICO— MEXICO  CITY.  321 

These  twelve  young  women  come  from  representative  regions  of 
the  Republic.  Three  come  from  the  State  of  Guerrefo,  a  whole 
region  whei"e  the  Gospel  work  is  distinctively  Presbyterian.  We  hope 
one  of  these  will  remain  in  her  own  State  to  teach  for  our  Mission,  one 
go  to  teach  in  a  well-known  Methodist  school,  and  one  go  to  a  far  dis- 
tant coast  town  to  teach  for  the  Ciovernmcnt. 

Three  come  from  the  State  of  Michoacan,  and  will  all  go  back  to 
teach  there  for  our  Mission.  Two  of  the  class  conic  from  across  the 
Gulf  of  Mexico,  making  the  voyage  on  an  ocean  liner.  Their  positions 
have  been  awaiting  them  for  months  in  the  day-school  maintained  by 
our  church  in  their  own  city. 

Two  of  the  class  come  from  the  State  of  Vera  Cruz.  The  one  from 
the  State  capital  may  be  called  to  a  position  in  her  own  alma  mater, 
and  the  one  from  the  great  port  of  Vera  Cruz  will  go  to  open  an  influ- 
ential school  in  the  region  where  our  Mexico  Home  Missionary  Society 
is  spreading  the  Gospel. 

One  member  of  the  class  is  from  a  little  mountain  town  near  here, 
but  nearer  the  great  snow-covered  peaks.  She  was  not  a  Christian 
when  she  came  to  our  school  years  ago,  but  now  she  has  brought  her 
family  into  the  church.  The  member  of  the  class  that  I  mention  last 
is  a  Congregationalist  girl  who  came  to  us  for  her  last  year  of  study, 
and  who  will  go  back  to  teach  in  the  far  north  of  Mexico  for  her  own 
church. 

There  were  forty-two  enrolled  in  the  Normal  Department  at  the  end 
of  the  first  month.  The  attendance  was  almost  perfect.  Forty-one 
were  boarders  and  one  was  a  day  pupil. 

The  attendance  increased  to  forty-five  during  the  year,  and  with 
five  in  the  other  two  departments,  primary  and  intermediate,  the  high- 
est total  number  of  boarders  was  50;  daj'  pupils,  47;  greatest  total 
number,   97. 

THE  PRESS.— During  the  year  Mr.  Vanderbilt  had  the 
management  of  the  Press,  with  Mr.  Arelano  in  charge  of  the 
proof-reading.  Mr.  Vanderbilt  also  performed  the  arduous 
duties  of  Treasurer,  and  assisted  the  teaching  force  at  Coyoa- 
can  College. 

Mr.  Arelano,  in  addition  to  his  proof-reading,  gave  time 
to  work  in  the  seminary  and  assisted  Mr.  Morales  in  pastoral 
work. 

Mr.  Vanderbilt  successfully  launched  the  monthly,  Presby- 
terian Work  in  Mexico,  also  secured  the  publication  of  El 
Evangelista  Mexicano,  and  changed  El  Faro  to  a  weekly 
edition.  The  editorial  work  was  under  the  charge  of  the 
Rev.  C.  Scott  Williams.  Mr.  Williams  has  devoted  a  great 
deal  of  time  to  this  work.  He  has  had  the  entire  supervision 
of  a  staff  of  eight  men  who  form  a  supplementary  staff  of 
writers,  and  who  were  appointed  by  the  Executive  Committee 
of  the  Synod.  These  with  some  six  others  constitute  a  gi  oup 
of  men  who  are  endeavoring  to  make  the  paper  a  great  evan- 
gelistic power  in  Mexico. 

The  El  Faro  became  a  weekly  paper  with  the  first  issue  of 
1909.  It  is  too  early  yet  to  draw  any  conclusions  as  to  the 
success  of  this  change.

and  Mr.  Moises  Saens  has  also  been  published  by  the  Press. 
This  literature  is  used  in  Chile,  in  Colombia,  in  Guatemala, 
in  Cuba,  Porto  Rico,  Spain  and  the  Philippines,  as  well  as  in 
Mexico. 

THE  AMERICAN  CHURCH.— On  May  i,  1908,  Dr. 
W.  B.  Minton  resigned  from  the  American  Church.  The 
members  of  the  Mission  in  Southern  Mexico  felt  responsible 
for  the  continuance  of  this  English-speaking  church.  Rev. 
Newell  J.  Elliott  was  appointed  by  the  Mission  to  take  charge. 
In  this  service  he  was  ably  assisted  by  his  wife.  The  report 
gives  the  following  account  of  the  year's  work  in  this  church: 

The  work  of  the  American  Presbyterian  Church  in  Mexico  City 
came  under  the  care  of  the  Mission  on  May  6,  and  I  began  my  work 
as  pastor  of  the  church  on  this  date.  The  condition  I  found  the 
church  in  was  far  from  encouraging  and  hopeful.  It  was  not  an  old 
church,  it  was  not  a  new  church,  but  it  was  a  discouraged,  scattered 
and  broken  church  which  I  found,  and  the  task  of  building  up  a  church 
in  the  face  of  such  conditions  called  for  the  best  of  life  and  power 
and  we  gave  it.  Some  said  that  the  case  was  hopeless,  but  I  was  sure 
that  the  Lord  would  direct  us  and  soon  show  us  whether  or  not  we  had 
undertaken  a  vain  work. 

The  conditions  are  even  more  opposing  in  this  foreign  city  of  400,000 
than  in  a  city  of  the  same  population  in  the  States.  There  is  the  lack 
of  religious  and  moral  sentiment  which  is  so  helpful  in  a  Christian  land. 
Our  congregation  numbers  some  125  persons,  although  they  are  not 
all  able  to  attend  regularly  for  various  reasons.  The  largest  attend- 
ance has  been  forty-eight  and  the  largest  collection  $43.50. 

ZACATECAS. 

Southern  Zacatecas  field  was  under  the  care  of  the  Rev. 
Charles  Petran,  who  was  on  furlough  most  of  the  year.  He 
reports : 

Last  February  the  Zacatecas  Church  lost  for  the  second  time  its 
pastor.  Rev.  Ventura  Euresti.  He  was  once  called  away  by  the 
Presbytery  and  now  this  past  year  by  the  Seminary.  This  left  the 
church  without  a  pastor  and  no  available  man  in  sight.  Rev.  Juan 
F.  Mdrquez  had  been  assigned  a  field  in  the  Laguna  District,  but  it 
seemed  best  to  detain  him  in  Zacatecas  for  the  balance  of  the  year. 
He  entered  the  work  heartily  and  by  his  pastoral  work  has  gained  the 
approbation  of  a  large  part  of  the  congregation. 

Five  members  were  received  into  the  church  during  the  year  and  all 
the  services  were  continued  with  regularity.  The  C.  E.  has  manifested 
quite  a  little  vigor  in  its  work.  The  group  of  ranches  about  Zacatecas, 
lying  in  the  district  from  Ojocaliente  to  Jerez,  has  been  visited  this  year, 
as  in  previous  years,  during  the  seminary  vacation  by  Antonio  Senti, 
a  Cuban  student.  I  here  include  his  report  to  Presbytery,  to  give  an 
idea  of  what  is  being  done  from  his  point  of  view. 

"This  report  includes  the  months  of  January,  February,  March  and 
December,  1908.  During  this  time  I  visited  nine  different  villages 
and  ranches,  among  them  being  El  Moral,  El  Refugio,  San  Geronimo, 
and  others,  holding  82  services  and  making  175  pastoral  visits  and 
talking  with   150  persons  with  a  view  of  advancing  the  Gospel.     I

have  sold  $27.00  worth  of  Bibles  and  books  from  the  Tract  Society 
and  have  distributed  126  tracts. 

My  object  has  been  as  always  to  animate  our  members  in  these  out- 
of-the-way  places  and  work  among  the  unconverted. 

The  student  might  have  mentioned  a  very  unique  Christmas  cele- 
bration at  the  same  place,  El  Refugio.  The  exercises  were  held  in  the 
open  air  in  a  corral,  where  with  the  stalls  and  animals  it  would  not  be 
very  hard  in  imagination  to  picture  the  first  Christmas.  There  weie 
about  eighty  people  that  filled  the  corral  this  last  Christmas  to  listen 
to  the  songs,  recitations  and  customary  exercises. 

Northern  Zacatecas,  Laguna  and  Saltillo  fields  have  been 
under  the  care  of  the  Rev.  T.  F.  Wallace,  D.D.,  and  Rev. 
Lansing  B.  Bloom.  Dr.  Wallace  is  the  veteran  of  the  Mission. 
We  regret  that  lack  of  space  prevents  giving  the  report  in 
full.     Dr.  Wallace  writes: 

According  to  the  distribution  of  work  made  at  the  last  Mission  meet- 
ing, the  work  of  our  Mission  in  the  States  of  Coahuila,  Nuevo  Leon, 
Durango  and  Northern  Zacatecas  was  assigned  to  T.  F.  Wallace  and 
L.  S.  Bloom,  with  residence  in  Saltillo.  The  latter  was  not  to  be  respon- 
sible for  any  of  the  itinerating  work,  but  was  to  have  charge  of  the 
English  work  at  Saltillo,  and,  as  might  be  found  convenient,  was  to  be 
inducted  by  me  into  the  field  work.  On  our  way  home  from  the  last 
Mission  meeting,  Brother  Bloom  and  I  visited  the  congregations  at 
Zacatecas  and  Fresnillo,  although  these  were  not  on  our  field.  We  also 
visited  the  congregations  on  my  field  at  Gomez  Palacio,  Lerdo  and 
Torreon.  Mr.  Bloom  and  his  wife  did  good  work  at  Saltillo  among 
the  English-speaking  people,  visiting  among  them  and  keeping  up 
regular  preaching  services  for  them.  Mrs.  Bloom  also  did  work  in 
connection  with  our  native  work  there.  But  a  sore  disappointment  for 
them  and  a  sad  one  for  the  Mission  came  to  them  in  August,  when 
their  labors  were  suddenly  interrupted  by  the  severe  illness  of  Mr. 
Bloom,  which  compelled  them  to  leave  the  country  before  my  return 
from  my  annual  vacation,  early  in  September. 

What  has  been  known  as  the  Saltillo  field  comprises  three  districts — 
the  Saltillo,  Monterey  and  Allen de,  and  that  of  Monclova. 

Saltillo. — In  this  district  are  the  organized  churches  of  Saltillo, 
General  Cepeda,  and  Concepcion  del  Oro  and  small  congregation  at 
Parras,  and  one  or  two  preaching  points. 

In  the  Saltillo  Church  there  is  an  intelligent  board  of  elders,  and 
there  are  four  or  more  graduates  of  our  girls'  school  in  the  place. 
With  the  aid  of  these  and  the  minister  we  iinderstand  that  church  ser- 
vices and  Sabbath-school  have  been  kept  up  pretty  regiilarly,  without 
any  expense  to  the  Mission,  and  little  or  none  from  themselves.  Pastor 
and  people  seem  satisfied  to  continue  on  in  this  way,  showing  no  growth 
in  nxunbers,  spirituality  or  Christian  giving.  The  church  is  as  able  to 
pay  a  quota  towards  a  pastor's  salary  as  are  many  others.  There  is 
no  reasonable  hope  for  any  development,  but  rather  the  contrary, 
in  the  church  until  they  have  a  pastor  who  can  and  is  willing  to  care- 
fully look  after  their  spiritual  interests,  a  thing  that  is  now  and  has 
been  for  some  time  almost  wholly  neglected. 

Allende. — Outside  of  Monterey  the  additions  to  membership  in  the 
different  congregations  have  been  very  few  and  the  total  membership 
to-day  is  Uttle  above  what  it  was  twenty  years  ago.  A  larger  munber 
of  girls  from  this  district  than  from  any  other  have  been  educated  in 
our  Saltillo  School,  and  in  great  part  at  expense  of  the  Mission.  And 
although  there  is  need  for  Mission  day-schools  among  them,  the  people 
have  been  unwilling  to  co-operate  with  the  Mission  in  keeping  up  even 


324  MEXICO— SAN  LUIS  POTOSI. 

one  good  school.  To  allow  things  to  continue  there  much  longer  as 
at  present  will  prove  a  positive  harm  rather  than  good  to  the  work  in 
that  district. 

The  visit  to  this  place,  as  well  as  to  two  or  three  others  in  that 
district,  had  some  peculiar  incidents  connected  with  them.  Just  thirty 
years  before  I  had  had  my  first  experience  in  itinerating  in  Mexico, 
visiting  these  places  in  company  with  Rev.  H.  C.  Thomson,  then  in 
charge  of  that  field.  So  on  this  visit  there  was  some  pleasing  and 
pathetic  reminiscencing  with  some  of  the  poorer  and  older  ones  whom 
I  had  not  met  during  all  these  years.  One  was  a  feeble  old  man  who 
had  gone  blind  since  that  first  visit,  and  his  expressions  of  joy  and 
thankfulness  at  meeting  me  and  hearing  my  voice  once  again  were 
most  gratefully  touching.  Such  experiences  are  part  of  the  hundred 
fold  promised,  and  certainly  make  another  chapter  in  the  romance  of 
Missions,  such  as  only  the  "veteran"  missionary  is  permitted  to  relish 
and  record. 

It  will  be  noticed  that  Dr.  Wallace's  report  is  full  of  light 
and  shadow.  The  charge  is  sometimes  made  that  mission- 
aries only  present  the  encouraging  side  of  their  work.  A 
reading  of  Dr.  Wallace's  report  would  prove  the  falsity  of 
this  charge,  so  far  as  he  is  concerned.  For  a  man  who  during 
the  year  passed  his  sevent3^-fifth  birthday  he  seems  to  have 
clear  visions  of  what  is  required  of  a  foreign  missionary. 

EDUCATIONAL.— The  Girls'  Normal  School  at  Saltillo, 
under  the  care  of  Miss  Wheeler,  was  opened  in  1889.  There 
have  been  931  boarders  and  no  graduates.  Of  this  number 
seven  have  died,  thirty-four  are  married  and  sixty-two  are 
teachers.     The  report  shows  a  prosperous  year. 

There  were  seventy-seven  boarding  pupils  and  twenty-six  day- 
pupils,  making  a  total  of  103  in  attendance.  Two  missionaries  and 
seven  regular  Mexican  teachers  constitute  the  faculty.  Our  grad- 
uating class,  numbering  ninteen,  attracted  a  great  deal  of  attention. 
Eighteen  of  the  girls  were  boarders  and  had  been  in  the  house  on  an 
average  of  six  years.  The  one  other  was  a  day-pupil  and  had  never 
attended  any  other  school,  but  had  been  with  us  twelve  years.  She 
was  given  a  position  in  the  Saltillo  city  schools  a  week  after  her  grad- 
uation. Another  member  of  the  class  was  given  a  position  in  the  city 
the  ist  of  January.  We  now  have  three  teachers  in  the  Saltillo  city 
schools. 

It  was  not  difficult  for  the  girls  to  obtain  work  and  all  are  already 
teaching,  the  majority  in  official  schools. 

Financially  the  year  has  been  a  very  difficult  one.  The  promises 
to  pay  tuitions  were  given  in  good  faith,  but  many  people  were  not 
able  to  fulfill  them.  Northern  Mexico  has  felt  very  keenly  the  finan- 
cial crisis.      Our  motto  has  ever  been  forward  and  not  backward. 

SAN  LUIS  POTOSI. 

EVANGELISTIC— In  addition  to  his  large  editorial  work, 
Mr.  Williams  has  had  charge  of  the  San  Luis  Potosi  and 
Guerrero  fields.  He  was  away  from  home  attending  to 
editorial  and  evangelistic  duties  170  days. 


MEXICO— GUERRERO.  325 

The  work  in  this  field  is  divided  into  four  parts,  the  first  a  very 
small  portion  to  the  north  of  San  Luis  on  the  National  Railroad,  where 
the  Mission  has  had  three  preaching  places;  then  in  San  Luis  itself; 
also  in  and  around  Rayon;  and  lastly  the  Huasteca.  It  should  be 
home  in  mind  that  since  i'899  the  Mission  has  had  but  two  workers 
employed  in  this  field  besides  myself,  one  acting  as  pastor  in  San  Luis, 
the  other  at  Rayon,  so  that  it  is  not  to  be  expected  that  any  great 
development  should  have  been  accomplished  outside  of  these  two 
points. 

In  San  Luis  the  work  has  been  more  encouraging,  though  at  the 
beginning  of  the  year  it  was  far  from  being  so.  Twenty  new  members 
were  received  during  the  year,  and  all  the  members  engaged  actively 
in  the  religiovis  work  of  the  church.  The  work  at  Rayon  has  been 
better  than  hitherto.  At  Rayon  seven  new  members  have  been 
received,  one  of  them  a  man  with  his  family  who  are  quite  a  substantial 
addition,  as  he  is  a  man  of  earnestness  and  good  life.  The  people 
have  revived  their  C.  E.  Society  and  Sunday-school  and  as  many  as 
thirty  gather  to  the  preaching  service. 

It  remains  to  speak  of  the  work  in  the  Huasteca.  As  I  give  my  last 
report  on  what  has  been  attempted  in  this  section,  it  is  with  great  regret 
that  so  little  can  be  said  or  given  as  a  fruitage  of  so  many  labors  and 
for  so  many  years.  I  do  not  know  as  it  is  a  particularly  hard  field. 
It  looks  like  a  place  where  much  could  be  done,  as  the  people  are  not  so 
intensely  fanatical  as  in  the  interior.  But  they  are  far  more  indifferent 
to  religion  of  any  sort,  and  as  there  is  less  of  law  and  order,  being  re- 
mote from  the  centre  of  Government,  there  is  also  less  of  moral  re- 
straint, and  a  general  laxness  that  makes  it  hard  to  show  the  people 
that  a  religious  life  is  worth  while. 

THE  GUERRERO  FIELD. 

Mr.  Williams  made  two  visits  to  the  field,  one  in  May  and 
the  other  in  November.     He  writes: 

I  feel  that  I  have  obtained  a  pretty  fair  notion  of  the  kind  of  work 
that  has  been  done,  the  places  where  we  can  do  most  and  the  best  way 
of  employing  the  men  who  are  engaged  with  me  in  the  work.  I  am 
certainly  ready  now  to  make  a  strong  efi'ort  to  redeem  some  of  the 
waste  places  in  this  widely  extended  district,  and  to  begin  a  thorough 
evangelistic  movement  in  all  our  stations. 

The  Field. — The  seventy  or  more  preaching  stations  in  Guerrero 
are  spread  out  over  nearly  the  whole  State,  and  can  be  divided  into 
five  groups  which  I  will  proceed  to  name: 

1.  Atoyac,  with  its  adjoining  stations,  on  the  coast  of  the  Pacific — 
Tecpan,  Aguas  Blancas,  San  Geronimo,  Santa  Barbara,  San  Vicente, 
Acapulco. 

2.  Chilpancingo,  the  State  capital,  with  Tixtla,  Xochipala,  Ztmi- 
pango,  Chichihualco. 

3.  Iguala,  point  nearest  Mexico,  with  Platanillo,  Tuxpan,  Zacuapa, 
Temazcalapa,  Apipilulco,  Totoapa,  Aguacatitlan  Teloloapan,  Moho- 
nera.    Balsas. 

4.  Tlacotepec,  to  the  west  of  Chilpancingo,  with  La  Reforma, 
Tezcal    Huertas  Viejas,  San  Miguelito,  San  Nicolas,  Tetela  del  Rio 

5.  Ajuchitlan,  on  the  lower  Balsas,  with  Totolapan,  Tlapehuala, 
Arcelia,  Coyote,  Poliutla,  Coyuca  de  Catalan,  Llano  de  las  Huertas, 
Coyol  Quseria,  Placeres  del  Oro. 

.^t  present  we  have  in  this  field  five  men,  but  I  am  not  sure  whether 
thev  are  competent  to  do  the  work. 

The  problem  has  been  how  to  distribute  these  men  to  the  best  ad-

vantage  over  this  tremendously  big  field  of  mountains  without  valleys, 
and  towns  a  day's  ride  apart.  At  Chilpancingo  the  church  is  doing 
fairly  well,  has  its  Session,  its  Sunday-school  and  C.  E.  Society,  and  a 
really  earnest  attempt  is  being  made  to  carry  on  evangelistic  work. 
Qviite  a  number  of  the  congregation  have  moved  away  in  the  last  year. 
The  day-school  has  been  kept  up,  and  while  there  is  no  financial  sup- 
port for  it,  it  is  a  great  help  to  the  congregation  and  is  a  really  evan- 
gelistic agency  reaching  many  new  families.  But  much  remains  to  be 
done  in  this  and  the  other  fields. 


JALAPA. 

EVANGELISTIC— The  Station  was  in  the  charge  of  the 
Rev.  Isaac  Boyce  and  Mrs.  Boyce  and  Rev.  Newell  J.  Elliott 
and  Mrs.  Elliott.  The  Station  work  embraces  a  large  field, 
including  Yucatan,  Campeche,  Tabasco  and  Hidalgo.  Some 
idea  of  the  extent  of  the  territory  covered  can  be  gained  by 
reading  Dr.  Boyce's  itinerary  of  travel  by  rail,  6,800  miles; 
by  steamer,  1,500;  by  canoe,  125;  by  stage,  100;  by  horse- 
back, 450. 

In  company  with  Dr.  Boyce,  Mr.  Elliott  left  Jalapa  early 
in  February.  The  first  night  was  spent  at  Vera  Cruz,  where 
services  were  held  and  the  Mission  work  visited.  The  follow- 
ing day  they  sailed  for  Yucatan. 

The  work  in  the  town  of  Progreso  is  advancing  slowly  though 
firmly.  The  new  frame  church  is  nearing  completion,  in  spite  of  the 
fact  of  the  severe  financial  depression  which  has  been  upon  the  State 
the  past  year.  This  port  town  is  not  without  all  the  customary  diffi- 
culties which  such  towns  have  to  contend  with,  yet  a  good  spirit 
seemed  to  be  manifested  in  the  work  and  the  congregation  has  been 
very  generous  in  their  giving  to  the  work. 

In  the  city  of  Merida,  which  we  next  visited,  the  enthusiasm  in 
Christian  work  which  cheers  the  heart  is  to  be  found.  Should  any 
doubt  exist  as  to  the  progress  of  the  work  in  Mexico,  the  attendance  at 
one  sei'vice  in  the  Merida  Church  will  qttickly  dispel  any  idea  of  defeat. 
The  church  is  a  veritable  beehive  every  day  in  the  week.  A  well- 
equipped  and  well-conducted  day-school  is  part  of  the  institution. 
They  truly  follow  the  familiar  slogan  of  "Every  Christian  a  member, 
and  every  member  a  worker."  The  Sabbath-school  is  large  and  well 
conducted  and  the  church  services  are  crowded,  which  means  an 
audience  of  300  to  400  people.  It  is  refreshing  to  look  at  the  clean 
appearance  of  this  congregation,  and  you  cannot  help  but  feel  that  the 
Gospel  has  found  a  worthy  people,  for  we  often  say  "cleanliness  is 
next  to  godliness.  "  Several  representatives  of  other  nations  are  to  be 
found  in  this  church,  namely,  Americans,  Syrians  and  Koreans.  One 
can  realize,  after  a  visit  to  this  church,  the  truly  wonderful  power  of 
an  active  evangelistic  church.  Protestantism  is  respected  in  Merida, 
and  the  power  of  the  church  can  scarcely  be  estimated  in  the  commu- 
nity at  large.  We  next  visited  Ticul,  which  is  several  hours'  ride  by 
train  from  Merida.  In  this  town  the  services  are  well  attended  and 
the  interest  is  very  strong.  The  pastor,  Placido  Lope,  is  doing  fine 
work,  and  the  people  are  growing  into  strong  workers.  During  our 
visit  meetings  were  held  every  evening,  and  though  a  carnival  cele- 
l)ralion  was  in  progress  on  the  plaza  the  church  was  crowded  with 
earnest  listeners.     A  new  church  is  also  nearing  completion,  although 


MEXICO— JALAPA.  337 

the  work  has  been  greatly  delayed  by  the  financial  panic.  We  visited 
some  little  villages  near  this  town.  One  place,  which  is  about  a  league 
distant  from  Ticnl,  we  visited  one  Sabbath  afternoon  and  held  a 
service. 

One  of  the  most  interesting  occasions  on  the  trip  was  the  visit  to 
the  town  of  Muna,  which  is  some  leagues  on  the  other  side  of  Ticul 
on  the  road  to  Merida.  Muna  is  noted  for  its  fanaticism  and  also 
jealousy  of  long  standing  with  the  town  of  Ticul.  But  the  workers 
from  Ticul  were  undaunted  and  fovmd  a  small  entrance  into  this  place. 
We  visited  the  town  two  months  after  the  work  was  started  and  were 
greatly   pleased    at    the    outlook. 

At  Frontera  we  took  the  river  steamer  for  San  Juan  Bautista  and 
arrived  in  that  city  the  next  morning.  The  work  in  San  Juan  exerts  a 
good  influence,  although  the  conditions  are  not  the  most  encouraging 
for  the  pastor,  Mr.  Granados.  He  is  highly  respected  by  the  entire 
city,  from  the  Governor  to  the  poorest  peon.  He  is  truly  a  pastor  and 
his  people  are  very  loyal.  An  incident  occurred  which  is  hopefid  in 
showing  the  respect  in  which  Mr.  Granados  and  his  people  are  held. 
A  rich  ranchman,  who  is  not  a  believer  but  is  friendly  to  the  work, 
invited  the  Presbytery  to  spend  the  day  at  his  home  near  the  city. 
He  was  giving  a  party  for  the  graduates  of  the  Normal  School,  of  which 
his  daughter  was  a  member.  A  special  table  was  arranged  for  us  on 
the  porch,  and  the  waiters  seemed  rather  astonished  when  the  offer  of 
wine  was  declined  by  us.  Such  a  class  of  priests  were  strangers  to  them. 
Such  friendly  recognition  of  the  evangelistic  work  betokens,  I  hope, 
great  things  for  the  future.  Birthday  greetings  were  carried  to  the 
Governor  from  the  Presbytery  and  he  appreciated  them  very  much. 
From  San  Juan  Bautista  we  set  out  on  the  trip  to  the  coast  and  interior 
churches.  The  first  day's  trip  by  canoe  brought  us  in  the  evening  to 
the  Indian  village  of  Hidalgo.  This  place  had  been  visited  for  the 
first  time  by  the  pastor  from  Paraiso  a  few  weeks  before.  Our  coming 
was  cordially  received,  although  we  were  looked  upon  with  rather 
ctirious  eyes.  It  seemed  well  to  hold  a  meeting  the  following  evening, 
after  visiting  some  of  the  homes.  There  were  present  some  loo  men 
and  only  a  few  women,  for,  strange  to  say,  the  women  are  classed  with 
the  cattle  and  do  not  have  many  privileges.  The  place  seems  very 
near  barbarism  in  some  regards,  because  of  the  abbreviation  of  dress 
of  both  women  and  children.  The  visit  was  well  repaid  in  not  only 
helping  with  the  work,  but  also  in  gaining  from  that  little  village  the 
son  of  the  chief  for  the  Coyoacan  College.  The  chief,  after  much 
Indian  hesitation  and  consideration,  finally  consented  to  allow  the  boy 
to  come  to  Mexico  City  with  us,  and  he  agreed  to  pay  all  of  his  son's 
expenses.  If  you  could  visit  the  little  village  you  would  understand 
better  the  future  of  that  place  and  how,  in  many  ways,  it  depends 
upon  the  education  of  the  chief's  son.  Another  canoe  journey  brought 
us  to  Paraiso.  We  traveled  mostly  during  the  night  to  avoid  the 
extreme  heat  of  the  day.  In  Paraiso  the  work  is  very  strong.  At 
the  ordination  service  of  the  pastor  the  church  was  filled,  numbering 
some  300  inside  and  some  fifty  who  preferred  to  stand  outside  and 
look  on.  The  regular  evening  services,  which  were  carried  on  while 
we  were  there,  were  well  attended,  and  the  communion  service,  when 
eight  members  were  received,  was  attended  by  a  very  large  number, 
some  of  the  people  coming  a  long  distance  down  the  rivers.  From 
this  village  of  Paraiso  three  boys  agreed  to  return  to  Mexico  City 
with  us  to  enter  Coyoacan  College.  A  horseback  trip  brought  us  to 
some  of  the  groups  of  believers  and  congregations  in  the  jungles.  The 
genuine  faith  of  the  people  was  always  inspiring  to  me,  and  though  the 
scope  of  their  life  is  not  very  broad,  the  Gospel  of  Christ  seems  to  be 
the  best  thing  they  have  and  truly  makes  their  life  worth  living. 
Brief  services  were  held  along  the  way  where  it  was  possible  to  gather 
a  group  together. 


328  MEXICO— AGUAS  CALIENTES. 

Our  departure  from  San  Juan  Bautista  was  one  to  be  remembered 
with  more  than  passing  interest.  We  had  said  farewell  before  going 
on  the  boat,  and  since  it  was  quite  probable  this  was  to  be  the  last 
visit  of  Dr.  Boyce  to  their  city  for  some  time,  almost  the  entire  con- 
gregation was  at  the  pier  to  say  and  wave  good-by.  It  was  in  the 
early  evening  and  the  high  bank  was  lined  with  the  people  of  the  city. 
As  the  large  river  boat  turned  its  prow  down  stream  in  the  centre  of 
the  river,  we  could  see  a  large  group  of  people  a  little  distance  from  the 
pier  waving  us  farewell.  It  made  us  feel  that  where  the  heart  beats 
true,  there  one  may  find  sympathy  and  friendship  in  all  its  grandeur. 

In  the  Hidalgo  field,  even  as  diligent  an  itinerator  as  Dr. 
Boyce  finds  himself  in  new  territory: 

This  part  of  Mexico  was  entirely  new  to  me,  and  I  knew  nothing  of 
the  character  of  the  inhabitants  of  the  State  of  Hidalgo  until  August 
last  when  I  visited  the  work.  I  had  never  come  in  contact  with  the 
Otomie  Indians,  and  was  interested  in  studying  them  while  on  the 
visit.  I  found  them  different  from  any  other  Indians  I  have  met; 
and  they  do  not  strike  me  as  a  people  likely  to  exist  for  more  than 
a  generation,  or  at  most  for  two  generations.  They  are  poorly  devel- 
oped physically,  low  in  intellect,  and  generally  a  degenerate  people. 
They  do  not  extend  down  into  the  hot  country,  and  the  inhabitants 
in  and  around  Pisafiores  are  very  different  in  character  and  in  physical 
condition  from  the  Otomies  of  the  higher  regions. 

A  new  mining  enterprise  is  being  developed  in  Flojonales,  some 
twenty  miles  to  the  east  of  Zimapan.  Mr.  Sturgiss,  the  general  mana- 
ger, has  shown  a  most  cordial  spirit,  and  his  house,  9,000  feet  above  sea 
level,  is  open  and  warm  for  the  missionary  and  native  preacher 
whenever  they  reach  the  mines.  The  work  being  done  so  far  in  the 
mines  is  development.  If  they  get  the  ores  they  hope  to  find  a  very 
large  plant  will  be  at  once  established,  and  an  electric  road  will  be 
built  from  the  Nacional  to  Flojonales.  In  that  case  this  will  become 
the  most  important  town  in  all  the  section  where  we  have  work. 
Already  a  number  of  believers  have  moved  to  the  place  for  work,  and 
Mr.  Verduzco  holds  services  in  the  camp.  In  case  the  work  is  con- 
tinued, it  is  Mr.  Sturgiss'  intention  to  open  schools  for  boys  and  girls; 
and  he  told  me  he  would  look  to  our  Mission  for  the  very  best  teachers 
we  could  furnish  him,  and  with  full  liberty  to  teach  religion,  as  he  says 
he  sees  the  need  for  it. 

AGUAS  CALIENTES. 

At  the  close  of  the  school  year  Miss  Spencer  and  Miss  Turner 
took  a  few  months  for  a  much  needed  furlough,  and  Mr.  and 
Mrs.  Molloy  were  compelled  to  spend  a  few  weeks  in  the 
States  on  account  of  the  ill  health  of  Mr.  Molloy.  This, 
however,  did  not  interfere  with  either  the  evangelistic  or 
educational  work  of  the  Station.  In  Mr.  Molloy 's  absence 
Mr.  Petran  and  Dr.  Dodds  had  charge  of  the  pulpit. 

EVANGELISTIC— 

The  past  year  has  been  rich  in  blessings.  The  work  of  the  Aguas 
Calientes  Station  has  gone  well  in  all  respects.  The  English  work  has 
.suffered  quite  seriously  on  account  of  the  change  of  administration 
in  railroad  affairs,  causing  an  inn:sual  exit  of  those  who  were  regular 


MEXICO— ACUAS  CALIENTES.  329 

attendants  and  helpful  supporters  of  the  church.  Despite  the  changes 
that  have  taken  place  the  spiritual  and  financial  condition  of  the  church 
are  very  encouraging,  and  we  enter  the  new  year  with  high  hopes  and 
sincere   thankfulness. 

The  organized  Mexican  work  has  gone  on  in  peace  and  prosperity. 
This  church  is  blessed  with  two  good  ruling  elders,  a  good  deacon  and 
a  goodly  number  of  young  men  and  women  of  which  any  congregation 
might  well  be  proud. 

After  the  "Upper  Chamber"  meeting  in  San  Luis  Potosi  some  ten 
of  the  brethren  who  had  attended  that  "feast  of  Pentecost"  spent  a 
day  at  Aguas  CaUentes.  We  held  three  services,  and  it  was  a  glorious 
day — such  a  day  as  the  church  had  never  seen.  Not  less  than  a  score 
were  added  to  the  church,  the  larger  number  of  whom  were  pupils 
of  the  college,  though  many  others  were  deeply  moved. 

Cosio.- — Our  little  congregation  at  Cosio  has  not  grown,  but  we  feel 
thankful  that  the  few  members  that  we  have  there  appreciate  the 
monthly  visits  of  the  native  pastor,  who  holds  three  services  at  each 
visit. 

In  the  new  Mission,  in  the  streets,  in  the  jails  and  in  private  homes 
we  work  against  this  king  of  vices — Intemperance. 

The  opening  up  of  new  Missions  in  Cholula  and  Teran  has  aroused 
much  opposition.  The  Teran  Mission  was  broken  open,  although  the 
door  was  double  locked,  and  about  $200  (gold)  worth  of  property 
(including  the  magic  lantern)  was  stolen. 

EDUCATIONAL.— Co/^gjo  Morelos.— The  severe  illness  of 
Miss  Turner  during  the  year  put  much  extra  work  on  Miss 
Spencer  and  the  Mexican  teachers.  Miss  Spencer  assumed 
full  responsibility  during  Miss  Turner's  illness  and  the  work 
of  the  school  went  on  as  usual.  The  report  of  the  year  is 
encouraging : 

Two  hundred  and  ten  pupils  were  enrolled  in  Colegio  Morelos 
during  1908.  Nine  grades  and  the  kindergarten  were  taught.  In 
all  grades  fair  work  was  done,  and  in  almost  all  of  them  excellent 
results  were  obtained.  The  sixth  year  was '  noticeably  line  in  all 
branches,  and  the  little  folks  of  the  first  grade  did  so  unusually  well 
that  all  the  other  years  willingly  conceded  the  palm. 

We  were  really  gratified  with  the  results  of  the  year's  Bible  study. 
All  grades  did  more  than  average  work.  Even  the  baby  kindcr- 
gartners  learned  many  precious  gems  during  the  year,  and  could  recite 
them  on  their  examination  day. 

The  English  department  did  its  usual  good  work. 

The  dressmaking  department  was  greatly  appreciated  by  manj"  of 
the  girls,  and  proved  profitable. 

The  work  in  the  physical  training  classes  was  of  a  high  grade, 

We  have  not  yet  brought  the  curriculum  up  to  the  mark  that  we 
have  set  for  it,  but  we  have  made  some  progress  toward  it. 

Some  may  remeinber  that  at  our  farewell  prayer  service  at  Mission 
meeting  last  year,  Miss  Spencer  requested  all  to  pray  for  a  revival 
in  Colegio  Morelos  during  1908.  This  thought  was  uppermost  in 
all  our  work  during  the  year.  We  were  not  disappointed  in  results. 
We  have  never  seen  a  more  powerful  manifestation  of  the  Spirit  of 
God  in  our  girls  than  during  the  year  just  closed.  Catholics  and  Pro- 
testants alike  were  converted,  and  showed  fruits  of  the  Spirit.  We 
have  rarely  seen  the  Gospel  of  Christ  so  honored,  and  never  have  we 
seen  the  Spirit  in  so  great  power,  not  only  on  the  great  day  of  the  meet- 
ing  with   the   Mexican   brethren,   who  came   direct   from   the   Upper

Chamber  reunion,  but  long  after.  The  letters  from  the  pupils  to  their 
home  people,  who  were  Catholics,  breathed  of  a  change  so  vital  that 
only  the  Spirit  could  have  wrought.

MISSIONS   IN   PERSIA. 

No  country  in  the  world  has  been  more  disturbed  by  the 
play  of  the  new  forces  which  are  operating  in  Asia  than  Persia. 
The  intro(lucti(Mi  to  the  report  of  last  year  gave  some  account 
of  the  beginning-  of  the  Shah's  rupture  with  the  Parliament. 
On  Tuesday,  June  23,  1908,  his  troops  bombarded  the  Parlia- 
ment buildings.  A  number  of  the  leaders  of  the  Constitutional 
party  were  killed  and  the  Constitution  itself  was  withdrawn. 
Since  then  the  Shah  has  remained  master  of  the  situation  in 
Teheran,  and,  in  spite  of  the  pressure  brought  to  bear  upon 
him,  has  refused  to  restore  the  Constitution  or  to  reconvene 
the  Parliament.  The  situation  has  been  much  strained  between 
him  and  the  people,  and  the  newspapers  have  one  day  reported 
his  acquiescence  in  the  popular  demand  for  a  restoration  of  the 
Constitution,  and  the  next  day  have  reported  his  refusal. 

Distant  sections  of  the  land,  however,  have  been  in  open  re- 
volt. The  city  of  Tabriz,  the  most  important  city  in  the  country 
after  the  capital,  refused  to  acquiesce  in  the  destruction  of  the 
Constitutional  regime  and  civil  war  ensued,  the  Popular  Party 
l)eing  led  by  Satar  Khan.  After  lighting  which  lasted  through- 
out the  Summer  of  1908,  the  Royalists  were  driven  out  of  the 
city  of  Tabriz  and  a  good  part  of  the  Province  of  Azerbaijan 
was  held  by  the  Constitutionalists.  At  the  date  of  the  prepara- 
tion of  this  report,  in  March,  the  Royalist  troops  were  closing 
in  afresh  upon  the  city,  and  fighting  has  been  renewed  with 
outrages  against  which  Russia  and  Great  Britain  had  pro- 
tested, perpetrated  by  the  Royalist  troops  in  their  effort  to  cut 
off  all  communication  between  Tabriz  and  Russia,  the  Royal- 
ists already  holding  the  Eastern  roads  to  the  city  and  the  road 
from  the  South  which  has  been  the  special  road  for  the  food 
supplies  of  the  city.  Throughout  all  the  fighting  the  mission- 
aries have  remained  at  their  posts,  although  last  Summer  bul- 
lets fell  on  the  compounds  and  even  came  in  through  the  win- 
dows of  the  Mission  houses,  and  throngs  of  refugees  pressed 
in  upon  the  missionaries.  It  is  still  uncertain  whether  the  mis- 
sionaries will  be  able  to  continue  in  Tabriz  during  the  coming 
Spring  and  Summer. 

The  work  has  been  kept  up  even  in  Tabriz,  though,  of 
course,  evening  meetings  were  impossible,  and  as  soon  as  the 
fighting  was  over  the  schools  were  more  crowded  than  ever 
with  pupils,  especially  Mohammedans.    In  all  the  Stations  of 

333 


334  PERSIA 

Persia  now,  large  numbers  of  Mohammedan  pupils,  both  boys 
and  girls,  are  thronging  the  schools  and  creating  a  need  which, 
without  additional  help,  the  missionaries  are  unable  to  meet. 
The  presence  of  these  young  Mohammedans  in  the  schools 
furnishes  an  opportunity  which  must  not  be  allowed  to  pass 
unimproved. 

Some  account  of  the  special  conditions  in  Urumia  are  de- 
scribed in  the  detailed  report  of  the  Urumia  Station,  but  the 
following  general  statement  may  be  added : 

In  Urumia  we  have  been  living  at  the  meeting  place  of  two  storms, 
and  this  has  mitigated  the  force  of  the  tempest.  The  internal  disturb- 
ances have  been  kept  somewhat  in  check  because  of  the  fear  of  Turks 
and  Kurds.  Last  Fall,  as  I  then  reported,  the  control  was  in  the  hand 
of  the  local  assembly  or  "anjuman"  and  of  the  "mujahidin"  or  organized 
patriots.  In  November  these  latter  forced  the  governor,  Imam  Kuli 
Mirza,  to  throw  up  his  governorship  and  leave.  A  few  weeks  later  the 
arrival  of  the  Persian  Boundary  Commission  brought  in  an  element  of 
stability,  and  a  few  months  later  (in  March)  Muhtisliam  es  Sultaneh, 
the  head  of  this  Commission,  assumed  the  governorship.  Meantime 
rival  factions  in  the  city  threatened  one  another  with  dire  destruction, 
rival  camps  fired  off  rifles,  and  things  seemed  threatening.  The  storm 
blew  harmlessly  over.  Muhtisham  es  Sultaneh  organized  his  adminis- 
tration with  bureaus  of  justice,  military  affairs,  taxes  and  police.  The 
old  anjuman  was  incorporated  in  the  goverimient  as  a  sort  of  court  of 
appeal,  with  high  honor  but  no  authority.  The  general  result  was  good 
and  order  was  kept.  The  administration  of  the  Kargozar  was  not  re- 
formed, and  the  Christians  were  unblushingly  governed  in  the  good  old 
way  of  bribes  and  intrigues. 

The  border  question  between  Persia  and  Turkey  was  the  subject  of 
negotiations  here  and  elsewhere  during  the  year.  Last  September  H.  B. 
M.  Consul  General  Wratislaw  came  here  from  Tabriz  in  order  to 
assist  in  the  negotiations  of  the  joint  commission.  In  December  the 
Persian  Commission  arrived  and  a  month  later  the  Turkish  Commis- 
sion. After  a  month  or  so  of  fruitless  negotiations  the  Turkish  Com- 
mission returned  to  Turkey,  but  they  were  compelled  by  the  pressure  of 
foreign  governments  to  return  in  June.  They  left  again  in  August  and 
there  is  no  prospect  of  a  resumption  of  negotiations  here.  In  October,  Mr. 
Wratislaw  returned  to  his  post  in  Tabriz.  The  joint  commission  failed 
to  find  even  a  basis  for  discussion,  there  being  no  agreement  as  to  the 
force  and  interpretation  of  treaties.  The  status  quo  for  the  last  century 
more  or  less  is  not  allowed  any  weight  by  the  Turks  and  appeal  is  made 
to  treaties  several  centuries  old  and  to  the  possession  of  territory  by 
tiiem  even  longer  ago.  The  presence  here  of  responsible  Turkish  offi- 
cials was  a  blessing  in  enabling  the  British  and  Russian  consuls  to  bring 
pressure  to  secure  relief  from  Kurdish  depredations. 

Petty  depredations  occurred  continually  last  Fall  and  Winter  and 
culminated  in  a  large  raid  in  June.  The  number  of  villages  that  have 
been  attacked  and  robbed  by  the  Kurds  of  a  considerable  amount  of 
property  is  hardly  less  than  fifty,  at  least  fifteen  of  them  being  Chris- 
tian villages;  while  as  large  or  a  larger  number  have  been  compelled  to 
pay  blackmail.  The  number  of  persons  killed  from  the  Christians  has 
ijeen  perhaps  fifteen  to  twenty.  Tiiese  attacks  have  been  from  one  end 
of  the  plain  to  the  other  and  even  down  to  the  edge  of  the  lake,  whence 
at  one  time  800  sheep  were  taken  up  through  the  plain  and  within  two 
or  three  miles  of  the  city  gates.     .     .     . 

The  revolution  in  Tabriz,  resulting  in  the  possession  of  that  city  by 


PERSIA.  335 

the  nationalists  under  Satar  Khan  and  in  the  occupation  later  of  Khoi, 
Salmas,  and  other  regions  by  the  nationalists,  has  brought  about  the  re- 
establishmcnt  of  the  anjuman  and  the  reappearance  of  the  fidai.  The 
open  union  of  the  Armenians  with  the  Persian  nationalists  has  brought 
a  new  clement  into  the  whole  problem,  and  makes  more  difficult  than 
ever  the  neutral  position  maintained  by  the  Syrians  in  all  of  these  civil 
disorders  in  Persia.  The  killing  of  an  Armenian  revolutionist  in  a 
skirmish  with  the  Kurds  was  made  the  occasion,  on  December  i8,  of  a 
remarkable  demonstration  in  the  city.  His  funeral  was  attended  by 
thousands,  including  the  principal  nobility  of  the  city,  and  speeches  were 
made,  such  as  the  streets  of  Urumia  never  heard  before.  After  making 
large  allowance  for  insincerity  and  fear,  the  public  preaching  of  equality 
without  regard  to  religion,  and  the  fraternizing  of  Christians  and  Mos- 
lems were  enough  to  make  one  think.  Among  the  speakers  were  two 
mullahs  and  a  Sayyed.  Meantime  the  general  breakup  of  the  government 
has  started  the  Kurds  again  to  robbing.  Among  the  losers  is  our  pastor 
in  Gavilan,  who  was  stripped  on  the  road  of  everything,  even  his  cloth- 
ing. Urumia  is  isolated  and  we  hope  that  the  serious  revolutionary  dis- 
turbances may  not  extend  here,  but  all  is  doubtful.  Meantime  the  Turks 
are  in  possession,  though  with  very  small  garrisons,  of  the  border  terri- 
tory from  Sardasht  to  Salmas,  with  Sulduz,  part  of  Baranduz  and  part 
of  Anzal. 

We  have  great  reason  for  gratitude  that  in  the  midst  of  all  these 
changes  and  disorders  no  danger  has  come  near  us. 

In  the  midst  of  all  the  confusion,  which  has  been  in  some  ways  so 
much  greater  in  Tabriz  and  Teheran  than  here,  whither  is  Persia  drift- 
ing? One  answer  can  be  given,  and  perhaps  only  one.  It  is  drifting 
away  from  the  past.  Anarchy  or  foreign  occupation  may  ensue.  We  may 
be  under  Russian  or  under  Turkish  rule.  In  any  case,  the  old  order  has 
gone  forever.  Disappointment  in  the  new  regime  has  not  increased 
the  longing  for  the  old  autocracy.  The  revolutionary  party  in  Tabriz 
has  also  shown  more  force  and  more  self-control  than  was  expected. 

The  worst  conditions,  however,  have  been  in  the  Turkish 
Mountains  in  Mr.  McDowell's  field,  where  raids  by  the  Kurds 
upon  the  Christian  villages  have  brought  immense  suffering 
and  loss.  Special  relief  funds  were  sent  out,  but  these,  at  the 
best,  allowed  but  a  few  coins  to  each  needy  family.  Mr.  Mc- 
Dowell has  carried  forward  his  courageous  work  among  the 
mountains  unflinchingly,  in  spite  of  all  the  discouragements  and 
dangers  that  have  surrounded  it.  In  a  letter  of  December  17  he 
describes  the  worst  -of  the  Kurdish  raids  and  the  general  con- 
ditions which  prevail : 

The  purpose  of  my  visit  to  Tiary  was  to  distribute  relief.  In  July,  some 
5,000  Kurds  descended  on  one  of  their  valleys  and  plundered  and  burned 
some  ten  of  their  villages,  killing  a  few  of  their  people  and  destroying 
their  crops.  Most  of  the  fighting  men  of  the  valley  were  two  days'  distance 
away  in  their  Summer  pastures,  as  it  was  thought  their  flocks  would  be 
the  point  of  attack.  It  was  therefore  as  a  surprise  that  the  army  of 
Kurds  appeared  early  in  the  morning  on  the  top  of  the  mountain  at  the 
head  of  the  valley.  Our  young  preacher,  who  also  by  birth  is  the  chief 
of  the  vallej',  at  the  head  of  a  small  band,  met  the  Kurds  on  the  moun- 
tain, and  by  skillful  fighting  held  them  in  check  until  the  women  and 
children  had  time  to  cross  the  Zab  to  a  place  of  safety.  Khoshaba  and 
his  men  then  crossed  the  bridge,  and  held  it  against  the  Kurds;  thus 
preventing  a  massacre  of  the  people.   But  while  they  were  safe  they  had 


336  PERSIA. 

to  witness  the  burning  of  their  homes  and  fields,  and  the  plundering  of 
their  goods.  One  incident  in  the  fight  deserves  mention.  While  oppos- 
ing the  Kurds  on  the  mountain,  one  of  Khoshaba's  men  was  mortally 
wounded.  He  begged  to  be  left  on  the  field,  as  his  case  was  hopeless, 
but  a  younger  brother  refused  to  listen  to  this.  He  got  him  on  his 
shoulders  and  succeeded  in  carrying  him,  under  fire,  down  the  moun- 
tain and  to  the  bridge ;  but  there  he  himself  fell  wounded  beside  the 
body  of  his  brother,  who  had  died  on  the  way. 

It  was  sad  to  see  the  blackened  walls  of  the  villages,  and  to  see  the 
women  walking  among  the  ruins  of  their  homes,  beating  their  breasts 
and  bemoaning  their  loss.  I  visited  all  the  burned  district,  comforted 
them  the  best  I  could,  and  took  a  census  of  the  villages  and  of  the  supply 
of  food  on  hand  for  the  Winter,  as  a  basis  for  the  distribution  of  relief. 
While  I  was  there  a  small  band  of  the  same  Kurds  made  another  raid 
on  their  sheep,  only  an  hour  or  two  from  the  village.  The  Kurds  were 
driven  ofif,  but  one  of  the  shepherds  lost  his  life.  Is  it  strange  that  these 
Christians  become  warlike  and  sometimes  take  the  law  into  their  own 
hands,  and  by  counter-raids,  punish  the  Kurds  for  such  crimes?

The  Mission,  which  last  year  lost  of  its  reinforcements 
Mr.  Moore,  has  now  lost  also  Miss  Bradford,  who  has  been 
unable  to  endure  the  strain  of  acclimatization.  Dr.  and

Mr.  and  Mrs.  Schuler  were  required  on  account  of  ill  health 
to  spend  the  year  in  Teheran,  while  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Douglas 
and  Miss  Stocking  took  up  the  work  in  Resht. 

TEHERAN  STATION. 

Persia  is  sharing  in  the  general  awakening  that  is  sweeping 
over  Asia.  It  is  not  possible  to  estimate  to  what  extent  mis- 
sionary work  in  Teheran  has  been  affected  by  the  struggle 
on  the  part  of  the  people  to  loose  themselves  from  Oriental 
despotism,  and  to  secure  for  themselves  religious  liberty  and 
greater  freedom  of  thought,  but  it  is  undoubtedly  true  that 
in  no  time  in  the  history  of  the  Station  has  there  been  such 
wide  and  extended  opportunity  for  making  the  religion  of 
Jesus  Christ  known  to  this  people.

CHURCH  WORK.— Dr.  Esselstyn  reports  of  the  work 
and  the  difficulty  of  the  missionary  doing  it  faithfully: 

The  clergyman  must  keep  on  preaching  Sunday  after  Sunday,  with- 
out having  sufficient  opportunity  for  preparation.  In  order  to  preach 
to  the  glory  of  God  and  the  edification  of  the  people,  one  should  have 
time  not  only  for  private  worship  and  communion,  but  also  for  Bible 
study  and  general  reading  bearing  upon  one's  pulpit  preparation. 
It  is  quite  true  that  sometimes  simple  sermons  can  be  preached  on  the 
mission  field  that  would  not  be  appropriate  to  a  home  audience,  simply 
because  the  home  audience  is  educated  as  well  as  the  preacher.  Never- 
theless even  these  simple  or  familiar  themes  require  careful  preparation. 
Mere  exhortation  would  be  no  more  acceptable  to  our  average  Arme- 
nian or  Moslem  congregation  than  to  an  audience  at  home.  The  older 
one  grows  in  the  ministry  of  preaching  the  more  one  realizes  the  neces- 
sity of  "keeping  the  cask  full,"  and  the  difficulty  of  doing  it,  because 
of  lack  of  time  and  opportunity  for  reading  and  study. 

There  has  been  no  wrangling  or  expression  of  discord  among  the 
church  people.  There  has  been  a  large  degree  of  harmony  and  co- 
operation. 

The  attendance  at  all  these  services  has  been  the  largest  we  have 
had  for  a  number  of  years.  The  average  attendance  at  Sunday- 
school  has  been  123  plus,  and  at  the  Persian  preaching  which  is  held 
immediately  after  Sunday-school  108  plus. 

The  Bible  class  for  men  throughout  the  year  was  taught  by  Dr. 
Potter  and,  excluding  the  primary,  had  the  largest  attendance  of  any 
class,  it  not  infrequently  happening  that  from  three  to  four  rows  of 
seats  were  filled  with  men  of  all  ranks,  who  attentively  listened  to  the 
truth  as  it  was  earnestly  and  most  faithfully  taught. 

Six  converts  from  Islam  have  been  baptized.  These  converts  from 
Islam  are  not  enrolled  in  the  membership  of  the  Protestant  Armenian 
Church,  but  are  baptized  and  admitted  to  the  sacraments,  and  pastor- 
ally  watched  over  by  different  missionaries  of  the  Station.  Of  the 
six  converts  one  is  a  young  artisan  who  was  led  into  the  light  by  another 
Christian;  one  is  a  Prince;  one  came  a  journey  of  twenty  days  espe- 
cially to  be  instructed  and  baptized,  and  after  getting  what  he  came  for 
returned  to  his  home;  one  is  a  man  who  graduated  from  the  boys' 
school  and  is  now  a  teacher  in  it;  one  a  girl  from  the  girls'  school,  and 
the  other  a  woman  well  known  to  some  of  the  ladies  of  the  Mission. 

The  English  service  was  conducted  as  usual,  beginning  October  6, 
1907,  and  ending  May  17,  1908;  the  average  attendance  for  the  33 
Sundays  and  Christmas  service  being  44  plus.  The  total  collections 
amounted  to  Krans  6,919.55.  The  entire  British  and  American  Lega- 
tion as  a  rule  attended  regularly,  and  occasionally  the  German  and 
Holland  Ministers  were  present. 

A  class  for  the  training  of  young  men  for  Christian  service 
has  been  conducted  with  an  attendance  of  from  three  to  fifteen. 
Two  of  the  young  men  have  offered  themselves  for  Christian 
work. 

Mr.  Schuler  made  two  evangelistic  tours  during  the  year,  one  a 
forty-five  days'  tour  to  Simnan  in  company  with  Bodvillie  Dom- 
bouragin,  and  one  to  Kasvin  when  he  was  absent  from  the  Station 
forty  days.     In  the  former  twelve  villages  were  visited. 

EDUCATIONAL. — American  Boys'  School. — Mr.  Jordan 
in  his  report  of  the  American  Boys'  School  says: 


EAST  PERSIA— TEHERAN.  339 

Every  year  at  the  opening  of  school  there  is  plenty  to  do,  but  this 
time  it  was  augmented  by  the  strike  of  the  preceding  year,  when  about 
loo  of  the  Moslem  pupils  and  some  of  the  teachers  went  out.  The 
most  trying  thing  that  fell  to  our  lot  was  the  interviews  with  these 
excluded  men,  who  would  first  plead  their  innocence  of  any  fault, 
then  announce  their  willingness  to  accept  any  amount  of  blame  and 
any  punishment  that  we  might  mete  out  to  them,  if  only  we  would 
readmit  them  to  "the  only  school  in  the  city  worth  the  name."  It 
was  as  hard  for  us  to  give  as  for  them  to  hear  the  reply  which,  as  some 
of  them  said,  "shut  the  door  of  hope"  for  thein:  "You  have  had  your 
opportunity,  you  did  not  appreciate  it,  you  threw  it  away;  it  has  been 
decided  that  the  best  interest  of  the  school  forbids  your  readmittance.  " 
In  a  few  weeks  practically  all  of  those  whom  we  would  receive  were 
back,  and  the  only  vacant  places  were  those  of  the  twenty-two  whom 
Mr.  Douglas,  by  vote  of  the  Station,  had  permanently  excluded.  Of 
the  five  remaining  in  the  Senior  Class,  two  left  in  the  middle  of  the  year 
to  accept  good  positions,  one  failed  to  pass  his  examinations  and  will 
remain  another  year.  The  graduating  exercises  for  the  other  two 
were  held,  in  connection  with  the  Amienian  literary  entertainment, 
the  evening  of  May  29.  One  delivered  an  oration  in  Armenian,  the 
other  in  Persian.      Each  acquitted  himself  with  credit. 

The  new  Gennan  school  which  opened  last  Fall  half  a  square  from 
us,  backed  by  the  German  Government  for  commercial  and  political 
reasons,  and  which  received  annually  $12,000  allowance  from  the 
Persian  Government,  started  off  with  a  rush  and  was  soon  full.  As 
it  does  not  aim  to  exert  any  Christian  influence  but  teaches  the  Moslem 
prayers  to  its  pupils,  it  is  free  from  religious  objections.  The  large 
attendance  well  illustrates  how  much  the  Persians  desire  education, 
for  there  is  no  present  demand  for  German.  They  study  it  merely 
as  a  means  by  which  they  may  acquire  the  coveted  education.  We 
think  the  school  has  been  an  advantage  rather  than  a  hindrance  to 
ours,  for  it  is  another  opening  wedge  bi^eaking  down  the  fanaticism  and 
exclusiveness.  As  soon  as  the  people  feel  free  to  send  their  children 
to  a  foreign  school,  they  will  send  them  to  any  foreign  school  they  will 
choose.  They  do  not  want  German;  they  do  want  English;  so  if  we 
continue  to  maintain  a  better  standard  than  they,  we  shall  have  all  the 
pupils  we  can  care  for,  in  spite  of  the  well-known  Christian  character 
of  our  school  and  the  Bible  lessons  which  are  a  required  part  of  our 
course.     The  enrollment  for  the  past  year  was  226. 

Iran  Bethel  Girls'  School. — Miss  Bartlett  reports: 

Persian  girls  are  waking  up  to  the  desirability  of  an  education,  and 
now  attractions  and  accommodations  should  be  greatly  multiplied. 
They  are  opening  schools  for  themselves.  We  ought  to  have  teachers 
ready  for  them.  A  teacher  of  one  of  these  schools  visited  us  and  said 
she  had  two  daughters  helping  her,  but  that  she  wanted  to  send  them 
to  us  to  be  taught  arithmetic  (all  of  it),  geography  and  English.  As 
she  went  over  the  school  she  was  overcome  by  the  blackboards  that 
did  not  rub  off,  the  nice  desks  and  clear  maps,  and  went  awa}^  exclaim- 
ing, "If  this  school  in  its  perfection  was  known,  you  would  have  a 
thousand  girls  begging  for  admittance.  I  have  visited  every  school 
in  this  city,  and  only  here  have  I  found  real  learning.  "  We  were  glad 
of  her  good  opinion ,  but  really  we  are  not  half  what  the  needs  of  the 
capital  city  demand. 

We  enrolled  180 — 97  Armenians,  62  Moslems,  9  Fire  Worshipers, 
6  mixed,  4  Jewesses,  2  Russians. 

The  special  word  for  this  past  year  has  been  " shiluk"  (disturbance, 
disorder).  It  has  been  frantically  shouted,  frightenedly  whispered, 
and   constantly   repeated.     We   have   had   white-faced   women   come 


340  EAST  PERSIA— TEHERAN. 

running  so  fast  after  their  girls  that  they  could  only  pant,  "Shiluk! 
Give  me  my  girl,  quick!  Good-by!  forgive  the  trouble.  Shiluk!" 
Several  times  our  lessons  were  rudely  interrupted  and  the  house 
cleared  in  a  very  short  time.  It  was  trying,  for  the  wolf  never  really 
came,  but  we  were  too  afraid  he  might  to  keep  the  girls  when  sent  for. 
We  had  a  tiny  little  six-year-old  niece  of  the  Shah's  for  a  month  or 
so.  Such  an  independent,  sturdy  specimen  of  royalty  I  had  never 
seen  before,  marching  in  and  out  alone  and  simply  laughing  when  told 
that  she  must  not  go  unattended,  even  if  she  was  our  next-door  neigh- 
bor. 

MEDICAL  WORK.— Dr.  Frame,  who  superintended  the 
work  at  the  hospital  during  Dr.  Wishard's  absence,  makes 
grateful  mention  of  the  valuable  services  rendered  to  this 
department  by  the  English  physicians  of  the  city,  namely: 
Dr.  Neligan  of  the  English  Legation,  Dr.  Lindley  of  the  Shah's 
staff,  and  Dr.  Scott  of  the  English  Telegraph.  He  speaks 
with  regret  of  Mirza  Ayub,  who,  after  ten  years'  connection 
with  the  hospital  as  pupil  and  assistant,  left  the  work  in 
November,  to  throw  in  his  lot  and  influence  with  the  Bahais. 

All  through  the  year  the  dispensary  was  comparatively  small, 
ritnning  from  as  low  as  fifteen  patients  to  as  high  as  seventy  or  eighty 
in  a  morning,  i.e.,  in  the  men's  department,  with  perhaps  an  average 
of  thirty  or  thirty-five.  There  were  about  twenty  fewer  admissions 
in  the  men's  ward  this  year  than  last,  the  total  being  197. 

The  women's  department,  with  Dr.  Smith  on  hand  as  usual,  shows 
a  much  better  record.  The  admissions  to  the  wards  were  practically 
as  last  year,  sixty-four,  and  she  had  a  large  dispensary  all  through 
the  Winter. 

WOMAN'S   WORK. — Mrs.    Jordan   in   reporting   on   this 

work  says: 

With  both  real  and  imaginary  disturbances  in  city  and  state,  with 
rumors  galore  and  many  a  groundless  panic,  we  are  glad  to  be  able  to 
report  that  the  interest  and  attendance  during  the  year  at  all  the 
special  meetings  for  women  and  children  have  been  tinusually  good. 

A  great  cause  for  encouragement  is  the  liberal  spirit  found  on  all 
sides.  The  Moslem  husband  of  the  woman  baptized  was  very  willing 
that  she  should  be  baptized.  The  parents  of  the  school-girl  not  only 
consented  but  the  father  and  little  brother  were  present  at  the  baptism, 
her  mother  being  sick  at  the  time.  A  Moslem  mother  at  the  wedding 
of  her  son  informed  us  that  it  was  because  of  her  having  a  pupil  in  our 
school  that  the  little  bride  had  obtained  so  good  a  husband.  Perhaps 
the  most  gratifying  feature  of  all  this  work  for  women  is  the  very  great 
increase  in  the  attendance  of  Moslem  girls  in  our  school,  nearly  one- 
half  of  the  total  number  enrolled  being  of  Moslem  and  mixed  parent- 
age- ,    . 

Dr.  Smith's  widely  extended  work  m  ward,  dispensary,  and  indi- 
vidual medical  visits  in  their  homes  is  a  great  factor  in  the  uplifting 
of  the  women.  The  women  at  the  crowded  dispensaries  Wednesday 
and  Friday  mornings  were  most  patiently  taught  by  Mrs.  Potter. 
The  Persians  are  awakening  to  the  need  of  trained  women  nurses  and 
are  discussing  establishing  a  school  for  such  training.  One  of  our 
Moslem  friends,  an  unmarried  girl  of  nineteen,  is  studying  nursing 
under  a  Persian  woman  physician  who  got  her  medical  knowledge  from 


EAST  PERSIA— HAMADAN.  341 

her  husband,  a  graduate  of  a  Paris  school.  Tliis  seems  wonderful 
to  us,  who  are  so  used  to  the  shut-in  condition  of  the  women  and  their 
consequent  helplessness. 

HAMADAN  STATION. 

Notwithstanding  the  state  of  pohtical  unrest  and  confusion 
through  which  Persia  has  been  passing  recently,  Hamadan 
and  the  region  around  about  has  been  quiet.  There  has 
been  no  evident  result,  either  favorable  or  unfavorable,  of 
the  political  events  on  the  mission  work  in  the  city. 

Yet  in  our  work  there  are  changes  to  note,  not  brought  aljout  by 
Shah  or  Council.  In  a  large  open  space,  just  outside  the  city,  with  the 
beautiful  mountains  in  view,  Dr.  Fimk  has  opened  the  Lily  Reid  Holt 
Memorial  Hospital,  while  conveniently  near  is  the  physician's  new 
residence.  In  the  building  in  the  city  formerly  occupied  as  a  men's 
hospital.  Dr.  Field  has  recently  reopened  the  Whipple  Memorial  Hos- 
pital for  women.  The  new  Boys'  School  building  at  this  writing  is 
almost  ready  to  receive  the  boys,  whose  numbers  have  increased 
beyond  the  capacity  of  the  old  building.  The  home  at  the  Faith  HuIj- 
bard  School  for  the  first  time  in  its  history  is  closed,  as  Miss  Holmes  and 
Dr.  Clara  Field  have  a  home  in  common  in  the  dispensary  property. 

EVANGELISTIC  WORK.— Mr.  Hawkes,  in  reporting  the 
church  work,  writes: 

From  St.  Stephen's  Church  it  is  reported  that  three  Communions 
were  held,  when  twelve  members  were  added  to  the  church  and  ten 
children  baptized.  Moslems,  men  and  women,  attend  almost  every 
service,  but  most  of  the  men  have  acquired  the  habit  of  leaving  when 
the  text  is  being  announced. 

The  pastor  in  charge  of  the  Kamara  District  has  made  us  two  short 
visits,  at  the  beginning  and  end  of  the  past  summer,  coming  up  to  take 
his  children  home  at  the  close  of  the  school  year  and  to  bring  them  up 
here  again.  He  reports  nineteen  Communion  seasons  at  the  four 
preaching  places  during  the  year,  when  nine  new  inembers  were 
received  and  fifteen  infants  were  baptized. 

EDUCATIONAL.— Boj/^'  School.— Mr.  Euwer,  in  report- 
ing the  work  of  the  Boys'  School,  writes: 

The  roll-book  of  the  American  Boys'  School  for  the  year  ending  June 
a6,  1908,  shows  an  increase  in  attendance  of  more  than  32  per  cent, 
over  last  year,  and  an  increase  in  tuition  collected  of  more  than  55 
per  cent.  At  one  time  during  the  year  the  enrollment  of  Moslems  was 
33.  During  the  year  one  Armenian  and  two  Jewish  boys  united  with 
the  church.  On  March  26  a  class  of  four  boys,  three  Armenians  and 
one  Jew,  was  graduated.  Work  was  begun  on  the  new  school  build- 
ing February  17. 

The  graduates  from  the  Boys'  School  numbered  four.  Notwith- 
standing a  pouring  rain  the  Armenian  Church  was  crowded.  The 
Khalif  was  present  and  desirous  of  making  amends  for  his  opposition 
of  a  year  or  two  ago  and  was  given  opportunity  to  speak.  He  talked 
for  more  than  a  quarter  of  an  hour  in  Armenian.  Those  who  under- 
stood him  said  his  address  was  a  eulogy  of  the  Americans  and  a  call 
for  gratitude  from  his  people  to  the  inissionaries  who  had  helped  them 
so  much. 


342  EAST  PERSIA— HAM  AD  AN. 

Faith  Hubbard  School. — Miss  Holmes  reports  in  the  absence 
of  Miss  Montgomery  on  furlough: 

Of  the  Junior  and  lower  classes  ten  Armenian  girls  during  the  year 
have  confessed  Christ  as  a  personal  Saviour  and  have  been  received  into 
St.  Stephen's  Church.  Two  others,  Moslems,  confessed  Christ,  but 
because  of  existing  circumstances  were  not  baptized,  though  the  father 
of  one  of  them  was  recently  baptized.  Because  of  insufficient  appro- 
priations to  meet  the  expense  of  the  school,  the  boarding  department 
was  closed  at  the  beginning  of  the  Easter  vacation.  Out  of  the  seventy- 
eight  enrolled  before  the  change,  forty-five  remained  enrolled  in  the 
school  after  the  Easter  vacation.  Two  of  the  former  teachers  and 
two  of  the  graduates,  residents  of  Sheverine,  are  now  carrying  on  that 
school  of  thirty-five  pupils. 

WOMAN'S  WORK.— Mrs.  Hawkes  writes: 

Woinan's  special  work  is  her  life.  Her  life  for  Christ  among  a  people 
where  women  have  never  known  the  dignity  they  are  entitled  to,  the 
joy  they  have  a  right  to,  her  freedom,  her  work  as  a  teacher  or  phy- 
sician, the  comradeship  existing  between  husband  and  wife — all  these 
are  object  lessons  that  cannot  fail  to  have  an  eifect. 

There  are  two  weekly  prayer  meetings  in  different  parts  of  the  city, 
besides  one  in  Sheverine  Moslem  women  come  to  them,  as  well  as 
Jews  and  Armenians. 

Most  of  the  ladies  have  Sunday-school  classes,  in  which  are  gathered 
women  and  girls  or  boys  and  young  men.  In  these  classes  are  repre- 
sentatives of  the  three  nationalities  among  which  ovir  work  is  carried 
on.  In  one  class  on  a  recent  vSunday  a  former  pupil  of  the  Jewish 
Girls'  School  came  in,  and  when  warmly  welcomed  she  said,  "I'm 
coming  all  the  time  now.  While  my  baby  lived  I  could  not,  for  it 
was  iny  special  duty  to  take  care  of  it.  But  now  it  is  gone  and  I  am 
coming."  Then  she  went  on  to  tell  how  she  kept  reading  the  Bible, 
because  she  did  not  want  to  forget  what  she  had  learned  at  school, 
and  how  she  had  many  a  talk  with  her  brothers-in-law  who  are  either 
strict  Jews  or  Bahais. 

That  Jewish  Girls'  School  is,  as  for  several  years  back,  a  very  small 
plant,  but  now  and  then  we  gather  such  a  blossom,  and  it  seems  better 
not  to  uproot  the  plant  yet. 

Work  among  the  women  gathered  at  the  dispensary  has  been  full 
of  interest.  They  listen;  they  ask  questions.  An  Eliat  woman 
from  over  the  mountains  one  day  tried  to  quiet  a  lady  who  was  making 
a  disturbance.  "Listen,"  she  said,  "she  wants  to  pray  for  j^ou. " 
When  asked  how  she  knew  prayer  was  to  follow  she  said,  "  I  was  here 
last  year."  Another  time  a  woman  said,  "What  is  the  perfume  on 
the  book?  Is  it  willow-blossom  water?"  "Let  me  smell,"  said 
another.  "No;  it  is  only  the  smell  of  the  Koran.  The  odor  of  prayer. " 
One  day  a  mullah's  wife  came  on  a  donkey,  accompanied  by  her 
husband.  The  next  day  a  porter  came  when  she  was  ready  to  leave. 
"Where  is  the  donkey  she  had  yesterday?"  was  asked.  The  ragged, 
scarcely  human-looking  man  smiled  and  said,  "The  donkey  cost  ten 
shihees.  AVhat  is  the  difference  between  me  and  a  donkey?  It  has 
four  feet,  and  I  have  two  hands  and  two  feet. "  So  he  took  her  on  his 
back  and  departed. 

MEDICAL  WORK.— Dr.  Funk  writes: 

The  past  year  marks  a  new  era,  in  a  way,  in  the  medical  work  for 
Hamadan — at  least  as  far  as  the  work  for  men  is  concerned.     The 


EAST  PERSIA— HAMADAN.  343 

Lily  Reid  Holt  Memorial  Hospital  was  occupied,  as  well  as  the  new 
physician's   residence. 

The  first  patients  were  received  in  the  new  building  on  November 
29.  Up  to  the  TSt  of  August  there  were  44  in-patients  and  33  surgical 
operations  in  the  hospital.  Besides  these  there  were  ^^  operations 
outside.  For  the  period  covered  by  this  report  there  have  been  8,249 
patients  in  the  men's  dispensary  with  about  5,000  additional  attend- 
ants. In  March  two  students  were  graduated  at  the  time  of  the  Boj^s' 
School  Commencement,  this  being  the  first  class  graduated  in  about 
ten  years. 

Dr.  Field  reports: 

On  the  last  of  January,  190S,  the  Whipple  Memorial  Hospital  was 
opened  and  the  first  patient  received. 

We  are  all  becoming  attached  to  a  dear  little  waif  of  seven  years, 
who  was  picked  vip  on  the  Sheverine  and  in  need  of  just  such  a  place 
and  such  treatment  as  the  hospital  can  give.  Dr.  Funk,  Miss  Holmes 
and  the  writer  were  returning  from  speeding  a  departing  guest,  when  a 
crowd  was  noticed  surrounding  a  little  unconscious  bloody  bodj^ 
We  alighted  and  learned  that  the  child  had  been  thrown  from  her 
frightened  donkey  and  ran  over  by  a  heavy  cart.  A  leg  was  broken 
and  her  face  was  badly  mutilated.  The  men  told  us  that  a  Seyid 
was  driving  the  cart;  that  he  had  condescended  to  return  and  very 
graciously  to  give  four  krans  (forty  cents)  to  the  distracted  father. 
This  is  the  estimate  placed  on  the  value  of  a  girl!  However,  according 
to  Moslem  law,  should  the  child  not  survive,  the  horses  and  cart 
would  be  paid  the  father  as  indemnity  for  the  child's  life. 

Anna  Hoseph,  my  assistant  and  medical  student,  and  now  matron 
of  the  hospital,  is  fluent  in  Turkish,  and  she  spends  time  every  day  in 
reading  to  the  patients  from  the  Gospels  and  teaching  them  habits 
of  cleanliness  and  industry  and  truthfulness  (an  element  rarely  found 
in  Persian  character).  They  are  always  interested,  and  often  beg  her 
to  read  on,  while  the  chapter  mo.<;t  frequently  requested  is  the  Fourth 
of  Mark — they  having  come  from  homes  of  "tillers  of  the  soil." 

It  may  seein  incredible  to  one  familiar  with  the  religious  habits  of 
good  Moslems,  especially  to  one  who  has  seen  the  water  jug  dashed  to 
the  ground  because  touched  by  a  Christian,  to  see  in  a  Seyid's  home 
the  bride  of  that  Seyid  deliberately  drink  from  the  same  water  bowl 
from  which  a  Christian  had  just  drunk.  The  superstitious  sneeze, 
however,  still  hinders  us  in  our  work.  For  instance,  the  father  of  a 
sick  child  came  for  medicine  and  was  told  to  report  the  following  day. 
The  afternoon  of  that  same  day  he  returned  the  medicine,  securely  tied 
in  a  dirty  handkerchief,  and  demanded  his  ten  cents.  Why?  Some 
one  had  sneezed ! 

The  dispensary's  record  of  attendance  for  the  j^ear  ending  Septem- 
ber 31  is  7,378  women.  The  number  of  operations  done  under  chloro- 
form in  the  hospital  and  in  homes  is  twenty-nine,  including  two  major 
cases.      In  the  Spring  a  new  medical  class  of  six  members  was  formed. 

Kermansha.— Mr.  and  Mrs.  Stead  continued  their  resi- 
dence in  Kermansha,  although  a  large  part  of  the  year  they 
were  moving  about  on  itinerating  trips,  especially  caring  for 
the  work  at  Sahneh.  Of  the  Woman's  work  in  Kermansha 
Mrs.  Stead  writes: 

By  means  of  Bible  readings  and  conversations  in  connection  with 
medical  work,  by  visits  in  Moslem  homes  with  a  Bible  and  Kashi 


344  EAST  PERSIA— HAMADAN. 

Mooshi's  hymns,  by  visits  in  Jewish  homes  where  all  the  neighbor 
women  always  gather,  and  by  receiving  in  our  own  home  I  have  suc- 
ceeded in  reaching  a  large  number  of  women  of  all  classes.  One  day 
I  was  invited  to  the  home  of  a  patient  to  drink  tea.  She  had  made  a 
great  spread  and  invited  a  whole  roomful  of  friends.  A  dancing 
woman  had  been  invited  to  furnish  entertainment.  From  the  turn 
the  conversation  took  the  dancing  woman  seemed  a  little  abashed,  and 
I  encouraged  her  unwillingness.  When  two  or  three  attempts  at 
music  on  a  little  instrument  like  a  zither  had  failed,  I  suggested  a 
hymn.  Everybody  wanted  another,  and  as  I  did  not  know  the  words 
of  the  one  I  wanted  most  to  sing,  I  sent  for  my  book  of  Kashi  Mooshi's 
hymns  and  a  Bible.  Everybody  was  nthusiastic  over  the  hymns, 
and  all  listened  attentively  to  the  reading  and  exposition  of  the  chap- 
ter. I  have  been  at  the  same  house  several  times  since,  but  no  dancing 
woman  has  been  called  in  to  entertain.  The  Kermansha  women  are 
friendly.  There  are  always  invitations  to  their  homes.  There  is  no 
setting  of  a  separate  place  and  cup,  for  fear  they  will  be  defiled  by  con- 
tact with  their  guest.  There  is  no  apparent  fanaticism  among  them 
Their  hearts  respond  to  the  message  of  salvation,  and  many  are  the 
ejaculations  of  admiration  and  expressions  of  belief  as  I  read  to  them. 
They  weep  at  the  sufferings  of  Jesus,  they  clasp  their  hands  over  their 
breasts  and  raise  their  eyes  to  heaven  at  the  hope  of  His  coming  again. 
Let  not  any  one  of  those  who  are  working  and  praying  for  the  redemp- 
tion of  Persia  think  that  because  conversions  and  baptisms  are  few  the 
work  here  is  hopeless.  There  are  hundreds  who  believe,  and  one  of 
these  days  there  is  going  to  be  a  break,  and  we  will  come  rejoicing 
bringing  in  the  sheaves. 

Of  Kermansha  Medical  Work  Mrs.  Stead  writes: 

Since  it  was  not  my  plan  to  sit  down  to  medical  practice  in  Ker- 
mansha, I  did  not  asic  for  any  rooms  for  dispensary,  but  undertook 
to  see  any  cases  that  should  come  in  during  our  short  stops  in  the  city 
in  one  of  the  rooms  in  our  own  house.  This  proved  a  very  awlavard 
and  unsatisfactory  arrangement  when  the  disturbances  arose  that 
forced  us  to  spend  the  greater  part  of  the  year  in  the  cit^^  one  little 
ro(jm,  twelve  by  fifteen,  having  to  serve  the  purpose  of  waiting  room, 
consulting  room,  operating  room,  dispensary  and  storeroom.  If  in 
point  of  numbers  my  medical  work  has  been  small,  in  point  of  import- 
ance as  an  evangelistic  agency  it  has  been  much  greater  than  if  I  had 
had  a  rushing  medical  work,  for  I  have  had  time  and  opportunity  for 
long  quiet  talks  with  one,  two  or  three,  and  a  good  morning  reading 
with  the  first  roomful  each  day,  neither  of  which  I  could  have  had 
without  either  Bible  woman  or  assistant,  if  I  had  allowed  my  hands 
to  get  too  full  of  the  medical  work. 

Of  the  Evangelistic  Work  from  Kermansha  as  a  centre  Mr. 
Stead  reports: 

There  have  been  five  baptisms  in  the  Kermansha  Church  this  year. 
On  January  5  Kashi  Mooshi  baptized  Hatun,  the  wife  of  a  Jew  who  was 
baptized  about  two  years  ago,  and  Moorad,  a  Jewish  pedler,  who  had 
been  an  inquirer  for  a  number  of  j^ears.  On  April  16  I  baptized  Hosein 
Khan  Garusee,  a  member  of  the  custom  house  force  at  Ghasr  Shirin, 
who  became  interested  during  a  trip  we  made  there  in  the  Autumn. 
He  bought  Scriptures  and  renounced  his  loose  habits  of  life,  and  became 
an  earnest  student  of  the  Word.  Since  his  baptism  he  has  had  some 
trouble  in  finding  Avork,  but  he  has  remained  faithful  to  his  confession 
and  seems  to  be  growing  in  grace  and  spiritual  power.     On  May  3 1 


EAST  PERSIA— KAZVIN.  345 

and  June  21  respectively  I  baptized  Habil  and  Mushi,  sons  of  Mullah 
Hatan,  the  principal  Bahai  preacher  among  the  Kermansha  Jews. 
The  former  of  these,  Habib,  has  shown  a  remarkable  ability'and  apti- 
tude for  discussion  with  the  Jews. 

We  have  made  twenty-one  journeys.  In  addition  seventeen  special 
trips  were  made  to  vSahneh.  In  all,  separately  or  together,  we  spent 
174  days  in  the  villages  and  on  the  road;  101  days  were  spent  in 
Sahneh.  The  Kermansha  pastor,  Kashi  Mooshi,  went  with  us  to 
Sahneh  on  three  occasions.  In  October  he  stayed  for  twenty-six 
days.  He  also  accompanied  us  on  a  week's  trip  to  Ghasr  Shirin.  In 
addition  to  this  Azizullah  spent  July  and  twenty  days  of  August,  1909, 
in  the  villages  of  Kermansha.  The  inain  results  of  the  j^ear's  work 
appear  in  Sahneh. 

Throughout  the  year  the  environment  in  Sahneh  has  become  increas- 
ingly favorable  to  Christianity;  people  have  become  accustomed  to  the 
idea  and  possibility  of  men  and  women  accepting  Jesus  Christ  as  their 
Saviour  and  openly  confessing  Him.  As  the  number  of  Christians 
increased  the  whole  village,  with  a  few  exceptions,  beeaine  openly 
tolerant  of  Christianity.  No  attempts  were  made  to  deprive  Christians 
of  their  means  of  livelihood. 

Nineteen  were  baptized  in  Sahneh  during  the  year. 

By  increasing  the  present  force  of  native  workers  several  fold  at 
once,  and  locating  them  individually  or  in  pairs  in  the  most  favorable 
points,  a  movement  will  certainly  take  place  that  will  result  in  scores 
of  converts  in  a  few  months  and  hundreds  or  more,  probabh'^  thou- 
sands, in  a  Httle  longer  time.  Even  a  few  months  of  well-organized 
and  adequately  supported  work  may  see  so  many  souls  brought  into 
the  Kingdom  as  to  startle  the  faith  of  Christians  throughout  the  length 
and  breadth  of  the  Moslem  mission  field. 

KAZVIN  STATION. 
Dr.    Lawrence  reports: 

In  many  respects  this  has  been  the  richest,  fullest,  best  year  we 
have  had  in  Kasvin,  due  mainly  to  the  fact  that  the  evangelistic  work 
has  been  pushed  to  the  front.  It  has  required  some  firmness  to  adhere 
to  the  rule  of  first  giving  the  Gospel  and  then  treatment.  Some  have 
refused  to  listen  to  the  truth,  preferring  to  leave  the  house  rather  than 
wait  until  the  close  of  services  for  treatment.  Our  custom  is  to  open 
dispensary  every  morning  with  devotional  services,  in  which  we  have 
endeavored  to  hold  up  Christ  as  the  only  Saviour  from  the  giiilt  and 
power  of  sin,  and  the  interest  and  attention  with  which  many  have 
listened  have  been  most  encouraging.  Our  little  dispensary  continues 
in  favor  with  a  great  many,  and  we  are  truly  grateful  for  the  success 
we  have  had  in  treating  many  eases.  Through  it  we  are  able  to  reach 
many  with  the  Gospel  who  without  it  would  not  give  us  a  hearing 
at  all.  It  furnishes  an  excuse  to  those  who  through  curiosity  or 
(Otherwise  desire  to  hear  our  message;  for  Persia,  notwithstanding 
many  changes  in  the  past  few  years,  is  still  a  land  of  religious  tolerance. 

One  of  the  most  interesting,  although  the  least  profitable  in  my 
opinion,  of  the  year's  work  has  been  my  debates  with  the  Mollahs. 
These  men  came  in  crowds  of  five  or  six,  usually  one  spokesman  with 
four  or  five  "rooters." 

Kasvin  has  been  very  conservative  during  all  the  excitement  in 
Teheran  and  Tabriz.  The  RoyaHsts  are  in  the  great  majority,  and 
the  news  of  the  overthrow  of  Parhament  was  received  with  the  great- 
est joy.

RESHT  STATION. 

EVANGELISTIC  WORK.— Mr.  Douglas  reports: 

Morning  Sabbath  worship  perhaps  averaged  twenty  persons,  and  in 
the  evening  fifteen,  with  not  much  variation  above  or  below  that 
number.  There  was,  however,  a  constantly  changing  personnel  of 
those  present;  some  who  could  not  come  in  the  forenoon  came  at  night, 
but  nearly  every  service  saw  some  present  never  there  before,  and 
likely  never  there  again.  It  was  a  constant  challenge  to  our  faith  to 
find  people,  in  all  kinds  of  weather,  appearing  at  these  services,  keep- 
ing up  the  attendance  to  so  steady  a  standard. 

Moslems  themselves  always  have  plenty  of  time  and  are  always 
ready  to  talk  about  religion — nothing  suits  them  better  than  a  religious 
fray. 

One  intelligent,  thoughtful  man,  a  rice  merchant,  years  ago  bought 
a  Bible  from  a  colporteur  in  a  bazaar,  studied  it  despite  the  taunts  of 
his  friends,  has  thoroughly  saturated  his  mind  with  it,  and  by  drawing 
water  from  the  well  of  its  wisdom  has  confounded  by  his  answers  some 
of  the  chief  Moslem  ecclesiastics,  before  whom  his  business  has  taken 
him.  Although  not  yet  a  professed  Christian,  the  astonishing  skill 
and  boldness  of  this  man  in  witnessing  to  the  Scriptures  makes  us  hope 
that  he  may  become  an  Apollus  when  instructed  in  the  more  perfect 
way. 

One  attractive  young  teacher,  a  probable  Behaee,  came  saying,  "I 
am  alone  at  night  in  a  great  hall  of  forty  columns,  trying  without  a 
light  to  discover  which  one  is  gold.  Can  you  furnish  any  light  to  direct 
me  to  the  truth?" 

EDUCATIONAL  WORK.— Miss  Stocking  writes: 

If  anyone  wants  to  really  live  with  the  people  let  him  rent  a  Persian 
house  in  Resht,  reserve  four  rooms  for  the  family,  and  give  over  the 
rest  of  the  house  and  the  entire  small  courtyard  to  the  education, 
recreation  and  sanctification  of  threescore  and  ten  youngsters.  Let 
not  the  tenant  entertain  any  vain  delusion  that  he  will  be  quite  alone 
until  fifteen  minutes  before  school-time.  On  a  Winter's  day  there  is 
a  goodly  assemblage  by  seven-thirty,  and  when  the  days  grow  warm 
and  sunny  the  gate  may  swing  open  at  six  o'clock  to  let  in  some  bright- 
faced  lad  with  his  hands  full  of  flowers  from  his  sunrise  walk  in  a  Per- 
sian garden.  Nor  let  our  lessee  comfort  himself  with  the  thought  that 
he  can  escape  the  gaze  of  shining  brown  eyes  while  he  eats  his  lunch  in 
the  brief  noontime  intermission,  for  it  may  be  that  the  dining-room  will 
be  full  of  "prisoners"  serving  time  for  badly  prepared  lessons.  One 
of  the  songs  popular  with  Mothers'  Clubs  in  America  is  "Oh,  come  let 
us  live  with  ovir  children."  In  Resht  the  children  come  and  live  Avith 
the  missionaries  and  it  makes  the  school  a  big  family — for  most  of  the 
children  the  only  true  home  life  they  have  known. 

We  opened  school  in  September  with  24  pupils;  in  January  we 
niimbered  55,  and  by  the  time  school  closed  in;June  the  total  enrollment 
was  71.  Of  this  number  33  were  Armenians,  25  Moslems,  8  Jews,  2 
Russians,  2  Greeks  and  i  French.  The  total  figures  include  16  girls, 
of  whom  13  were  Armenians  and  3  Jewesses.  The  final  enrollment 
was  nearly  double  that  of  the  previous  j^ear. 

The  most  significant  increase  was  in  Moslem  pupils,  there  having 
been  but  five  the  year  before.  The  Jews  were  also  new  pupils,  but 
only  a  few  new  Armenian  names  were  added  to  the  list.  The  year 
witnessed  the  opening  of  the  fine  new  Armenian  school  in  Resht,  built 
by  a  wealthy  Armenian  at  a  cost  of  30,000  tomans  ($30,000),  and 
presented  to  his  people  in  memory  of  his  son.     Although  this  school 


EAST  PERSIA— RESET.  347 

has  forty  rooms  and  five  teachers  and  tuition  is  practically  free,  as  far 
as  we  know  only  three  pupils  left  us  last  Fall  to  attend  the  Ajmenian 
school. 

We  were  much  impressed  with  the  reverence  of  the  children  who 
had  been  longest  in  the  school,  and  their  gentle  manners  were  a  beauti- 
ful tribute  to  Mrs.  Schuler's  influence.  It  was  good  to  see  the  boys 
carry  their  sisters'  books,  especially  good  in  a  country  where  chivalry 
is  an  unknown  grace  of  manhood.  One  day  when  several  little  boys 
had  just  entered,  we  asked  some  of  the  boys  who  had  come  to  us  a 
few  weeks  before  to  tell  the  newcomers  our  special  rules.  The  reply, 
"You  mitst  not  tell  lies  or  take  an  oath  or  use  bad  language,"  was 
quite  correct. 

If  there  were  time  we  would  like  to  give  you  the  pleasure  of  meeting 
all  of  our  children  and  want  to  introduce  a  few  right  now.  Samson 
is  a  round,  fat  Armenian  boy  of  fifteen  who  lords  it  over  the  other 
boys  like  a  general  at  noontime.  His  best  friend,  Mourteza,  is  a  sen- 
sitive, shrinking  lad,  only  two  years  in  the  school,  but  showing  a  grasp 
of  Christian  truth  and  a  love  for  Christ  that  seems  really  marvellous. 
If  you  do  not  see  Seyid  Jaffar  you  will  sureh'  hear  him,  for  his  voice 
rises  high  in  many  a  controversy  and  many  are  the  bitter  tears  with 
which  he  has  dampened  his  coat-sleeve.  Then  there  is  Aristotle,  the 
jolly  little  Greek  who  might  have  been  a  good  scholar  if  he  ever  sttidied ; 
and  Yesha,  a  pinched  little  Russian  lad,  the  oldest  of  five  brothers, 
who  works  so  hard  in  school  and  then  goes  home  to  hold  the  newest 
baby  for  his  tired  mother.  Yoii  would  like  to  meet  Esau  (which  is 
the  Persian  name  for  Jesus) ,  whose  strange  old  father  of  Moslem  stock 
brought  him  around  and  whispered  softly  that  he  wanted  t:s  to  make 
a  Christian  of  his  little  boy,  and  to  get  the  child  started  in  the  Way. 
He  had  not  allowed  him  to  wear  a  hat,  as  all  Mussulman  children  do. 
Esau  cannot  be  seen  without  Musa,  his  beloved  colleague  and  the  most 
hugable,  lovable  little  lump  of  humanity.  We  would  be  failing  to 
honor  you  properly  if  we  omitted  to  introduce  our  most  distinguished 
pupil,  the  tiny  son  of  the  Vizier,  the  deputy  governor  of  Resht.  The 
Vizier,  with  a  train  of  servants  behind  his  Excellency,  paid  the  school 
a  formal  visit,  examined  the  terrified,  quaking  boys,  expressed  himself 
as  much  pleased  with  our  work,  and  asked  us  to  take  his  son.  saying 
he  was  six  years  old.  The  boy  turned  out  to  be  about  four,  bright, 
handsome,  winning,  a  little  rogue,  but  quite  too  much  of  a  baby  to 
learn  even  his  letters.  His  coming  gave  the  school  added  prestige — 
and  added  cares. 

It  was  hardly  to  be  expected  that  our  work  would  meet  with  no 
opposition  whatever  during  the  year.  In  April  we  began  to  hear  that 
there  was  objection  to  our  teaching  the  Gospel  and  "Questions  and 
Answers  Concerning  the  Christian  Religion"  to  Mvissulman  boys. 
Later  we  heard  that  the  matter  was  to  be  taken  to  the  City  Council, 
and  that  Persian  boys  were  forbidden  to  attend  the  school.  However, 
this  did  not  affect  the  attendance.  For  a  week  men  kept  coming  to 
our  door  to  request  a  list  of  our  Moslem  pupils,  which  of  course  we 
refused  to  give.  When  things  lookedd  blackest  the  Easter  vacation 
intervened,  and  on  resuming  school  after  the  week's  holiday  the  trouble 
seemed  to  have  blown  over,  largely  perhaps  because  our  chief  oppo- 
nent, the  leading  Moslem  ecclesiastic  of  the  city,  was  having  troubles 
of  his  own  with  the  people. 

MEDICAL  WORK.— For  a  good  part  of  the  year  Dr. 
Frame  was  in  Teheran,  but  of  the  work  in  Resht  he  reports: 

For  some  weeks  after  our  return  we  were  hampered  by  Hmited 
quarters  and  had  to  turn  away  several  patients.  The  Persians  can 
understand  how  a  man  may  be  absent  and  will  wait  a  long  time  for 


348  EAST  PERSIA— RESHT. 

him,  but  they  cannot  understand  why  a  physician  should  refuse  to 
treat  a  case  because  of  limited  room.  They  think  his  excuses  a  con- 
fession of  incompetence,  and  so  most  of  these  cases  whom  we  asked  to 
return  a  little  later  have  failed  to  show  up.  In  spite  of  this  hindrance 
our  reception  was  most  flattering.  Almost  the  first  case  to  appear  was 
a  former  patient,  upon  whom  I  had  operated  for  a  cancerous  ulcer  of 
the  face.  I  was  glad  to  see  that  a  year  after  the  operation  there  was  no 
recurrence.  He  was  glad  also,  for  he  brought  a  friend  upon  whom  I 
have  since  done  a  similar  operation. 

In  August  we  had  47  new  cases  and  83  return  visits,  while  in  Sep- 
tember we  had  gS  new  cases  and  over  180  return  visits,  making  a  total 
of  over  278  consultations  in  the  month.  This  remarkable  increase 
was  due  partly  to  the  fact  that  the  Persians  believe  Autumn  is  the 
most  favorable  time  to  take  treatment,  but  also  to  two  cases  upon 
which  I  operated. 

According  to  the  accounts  of  those  who  have  been  longer  in  Persia, 
the  most  remarkable  feature  of  our  work  is  the  freedom  with  which 
Moslem  women  come  to  the  dispensary.  It  is  now  the  exception  rather 
than  the  rule  for  a  woman  to  object  to  a  proper  examination  of  her 
features. 

In  July  we  began  some  medico-evangelistic  trips  to  neighboring 
bazaars  which  we  have  long  planned. 

The  country  here  is  entirely  different  from  the  table-lands.  It  is 
low  lying,  with  an  abundance  of  rainfall,  a  damp  heavy  atmosphere, 
and  rank  vegetation.  Rice  swamps  abound  everywhere.  The  people 
and  their  habits  are  different  also.  They  are  more  peaceable  and  I 
think  less  bigoted.  Their  lack  of  bigotry  is  somewhat  offset,  however, 
by  their  ignorance  and  slowness  to  comprehend  religious  truth  and 
inconsistencies.  They  accept  their  own  religion  as  a  matter  of  course, 
and  never  seem  to  dream  that  there  is  a  possibility  of  changing  their 
faith,  although  they  are  ready  to  admit  the  beatifies  of  the  Christian 
teaching.  These  people  live  in  isolated  farmhouses  or  in  small  groups 
of  houses,  and  would  be  hard  to  reach  except  for  the  fact  that  they 
collect  in  weekly  markets  called  bazaars  and  at  teahouses  along  the 
road.  Here  and  there,  too,  there  are  bazaars  which  are  open  every 
day.  It  has  long  been  our  desire  to  try  to  reach  these  people  by  medico- 
evangelistic  work  at  these  bazaars.  One  difficulty  that  confronts  us  is 
that  the  people  use  a  dialect  of  Persian  which  is  not  widely  spoken,  so 
that  it  is  very  hard  for  them  to  understand  us  or  an  ordinary  Bible 
passage.  We  must  choose  our  langtia'ge  very  carefully  to  reach  their 
thoughts  and  understanding. 

I  began  visiting  some  of  these  bazaars  in  July.  We  chose  for  our 
first  effort  a  Wednesday  bazaar  called  Kuchef  Isfahan.  It  is  located 
about  ten  or  twelve  miles  east  of  us.  The  first  day  we  found  a  large 
crowd  of  people,  but  a  quiet  place  under  some  trees  near  the  entrance. 
I  was  scarcely  seated  when  a  man  recognized  me,  and  reminded  me 
that  I  had  seen  him  on  a  visit  Mr.  Schuler  and  I  paid  here  two  years 
ago.  He  recalled  oiir  leaving  Bibles,  which  gave  me  the  opportunity 
of  bringing  out  my  Testament  and  reading  some  of  the  stories.  Before 
long  three  or  four  priests  joined  the  circle.  They  listened  quietly  to 
the  reading  and  joined  in  a  friendly  conversation.  Meanwhile  a  num- 
ber of  patients  had  turned  up,  and  between  reading,  talking,  and  pre- 
scribing we  did  not  have  time  for  lunch.  We  bought  a  little  bread 
and  cheese,  which  we  ate  at  a  little  teahouse  on  the  way  home. 

A  couple  of  days  later  we  went  to  another  bazaar  west  of  town 
called  Jumeh  bazaar.  Here  patients  were  slow  in  coming,  and  it  was 
some  time  before  we  got  an  opportunity  to  read  or  talk.  Almost 
immediately  we  were  interrupted  by  some  Sayids  who  were  evidently 
bent  on  making  trouble.  They  considered  our  medical  work  merely 
a  ruse  to  get  the  people  to  listen  to  the  Gospel.     We  tried  our  best  to 


EASt  PERSIA— STATISTICS.  349 

get  them  into  a  friendly  discussion  on  almost  any  topic,  but  as  they 
merely  waxed  more  violent  we  finally  yielded  to  their  demand  that  we 
confine  ourselves  strictly  to  medical  work.  This  was  merely  the  action 
of  a  few  bigots.  The  crowd  had  shown  decided  sympathy  with  us 
and  several  remained  afterward  to  express  their  regret.  On  the  way 
home  we  stopped  at  a  teahouse  for  lunch,  and  had  an  interested  audi- 
ence of  ten  or  fifteen  while  we  read  and  talked  from  the  Gospel.

As  already  stated  in  the  preceding  general  introduction  to 
the  reports  of  the  two  Persia  Missions,  no  section  of  the  country 
has  been  more  disturbed  than  the  province  of  Azerbaijan. 
In  Tabriz  for  months  civil  war  raged  between  the  Royalist 
and  the  Constitutionalist  parties,  and  in  the  Urumia  plain  the 
Kurds  c.  nt^i'''scd  their  depredations  upon  Moslem  and  Chris- 
tian villa:?-,  alike. 

In  spite  of  all  the  disturbances  the  missionaries  were  kept 
in  security,  and  while  the  schools  in  Tabriz  were  closed  for  a 
time  and  all  night  meetings  were  given  up,  the  work  in  both 
Stations  has  gone  on  more  prosperously  than  ever,  and  there 
has  been  an  unprecedented  access  to  the  Mohammedans. 

URUMIA  STATION. 

The  work  has  gone  on  without  any  serious  interruptions  and 
without  mishap  to  the  missionaries.  The  force  consists  now 
on  the  field  of  five  clergymen  and  one  physician  with  their 
wives  and  four  single  ladies.  During  the  year  Dr.  Emma  T. 
Miller  and  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Sterrett  have  gone  to  America  on 
furlough,  the  latter  having  joined  the  Mission  this  year  from 
Van  Station  of  the  American  Congregationalist  Board. 

EVANGELISTIC  WORK.— The  statistics  of  the  church 
work  in  the  Persian  part  of  the  field  show  162  additions,  a 
total  membership  of  2,804,  attendance  on  services  of  3.720, 

350 


WESTERN  PERSIA— URUMI A.  351 

total  contributions  to  church  and  school  work  of  3,255  tomans. 
The  disturbed  condition  of  the  country  has  had  an  adverse 
effect  on  the  church  work,  and  the  number  of  new  members 
is  95  less  than  last  year,  while  the  net  increase  in  membership 
is  only  27.  The  decrease  of  898  tomans*  is  mainly  due  to 
special  causes,  partly  to  special  gifts  included  in  last  year's 
report  and  partly  to  the  scarcity  of  cash  already  referred  to. 
In  addition  to  the  gifts  reported,  a  legacy  of  400  tomans  was 
left  to  the  city  church,  but  has  not  yet  been  paid. 

The  following  extract  from  Mr.  Labaree's  report  gives 
some  of  the  lights  and  shades  of  the  work. 

There  are  a  few  places  which  are  worthy  of  special  notice  It  is 
with  pleasure  that  I  report  that  the  Labaree  Memorial  Church,  the 
home  of  the  city  congregation,  is  proving  none  too  large.  Under  the 
able  leadership  of  its  pastor,  Rabi  Pera  Mirza,  the  attendance  upon  the 
church  services  has  largely  increased,  and  the  people  have  shown  a 
zeal  for  their  church  and  a  spirit  of  harmony  which  is  most  refreshing. 
Geogtapa,  too,  has  caused  us  considerable  encouragement. 
Last  year  at  this  time  the  church  was  in  an  ugly  humor,  feeling  as  it 
did  that  we  were  responsible  for  the  sending  of  their  beloved  pastor, 
Rev.  Abraham  Moorhatch,  to  Tiflis.  Rev.  Babilla  Shimon,  however, 
agreed  to  undertake  the  work,  and  entered  on  it  with  some  misgivings 
on  the  part  of  us  all.  He  has  been  surprisingly  successful  and  the 
church  has  lost  nothing  during  his  pastorate;  indeed,  it  has  advanced 

in  giving Poor  little  Aliawa  Church,  in  daily  danger  from 

the  Kurds  and  suffering  much  at  their  hands:  at  the  same  time 
bereft  of  its  pastor,  has  kept  up  the  services  all  these  months;  there 
being  no  man  sufficiently  intelligent  to  take  the  lead,  a  graduate  of 
Fiske  Seminary  conducted  the  services  each  Sunday  until  the  dangers 
dissipated  and  some  one  could  be  sent  to  look  after  them. 

Outside  the  church  work  for  Syrians,  mention  should  be 
made  of  the  growing  opportunities  for  reaching  Moslems, 
Jews  and  Armenians.  Work  for  them  is  in  Turkish,  and  the 
amount  done  in  personal  conversation,  home  visits,  and  more 
or  less  formal  instruction  is  increasing  constantly.  A  regular 
preaching  service  in  Turkish  is  held  in  the  city  church  each 
Sabbath.  In  Soujbulak  we  have  had  an  earnest  worker  for 
Moslems,  who  reports  good  opportunities  for  work  in  that 
city.  In  the  Moslem  villages  about  Urumia  more  visits  have 
been  made  than  in  the  past.  Weekly  Bible  lessons  with  classes 
of  Jewish  boys  and  young  men  are  a  part  of  Miss  Van  Duzee's 
regular  work.  Mr.  Moorhatch  has  kept  up  the  very  important 
work  in  Tiflis  with  much  encouragement ,  although  the  industrial 
conditions  for  the  Syrians  in  Tiflis  have  been  very  discourag- 
ing. Mention  should  be  made  of  the  Christian  Endeavor, 
which  is  a  very  useful  branch  of  our  Church  work.  It  was 
formally  recognized  by  the  Synod  and  pastors  were  enjoined 
to  be  faithful  in  cultivating  it.  There  are  about  50  societies 
with  1,500  members.

In  the  mountains  Mr.  McDowell  has  done  considerable 
touring,  though  the  disturbed  condition  of  the  country  kept 
him  at  home  more  than  he  had  planned.  The  progressive 
attitude  of  Mar  Shimon,  the  Nestorian  Patriarch,  gives  a  ray 
of  hope  for  this  ancient  Church.  The  Mission  has  continued 
its  policy  of  co-operating  with  the  old  Church,  made  more 
imperative  by  the  inroads  of  the  Roman  Catholics  on  the 
Nestorian  Church.  This  policy  carries  with  it  an  increasing 
amount  of  co-operation  with  the  Archbishop  of  Canterbury's 
Mission.  In  Bohtan  the  faithful  body  of  Protestants  zealously 
uphold  the  truth  and  are  steadily  growing  in  numbers.  They 
now  number  170  members,  of  whom  a  large  number  have  been 
fugitives  from  their  homes  most  of  the  time  for  several  years 
from  fear  of  the  Kurds.  No  other  part  of  our  field  has  had 
so  large  a  growth  in  membership  the  past  ten  years  as  Bohtan.

and  for  inspiration  to  high  ideals.  The  amount  received  in

Fiske  Seminary. — Miss  Lewis  reports : 

Conduct  and  general  deportment  were  so  satisfactory  that  the  dis- 


WESTERN  PERSIA— URUMIA.  353 

6iplinc  was  a  comparatively  easy  matter.  The  older  teachers,  who 
have  been  with  us  many  years,  said  that  they  had  not  known  a  time 
when  the  girls  gave  so  little  trouble  and  were  so  faithful  and  obedient. 
We  tried  in  small  ways  to  put  the  responsibility  of  discipline  upon 
themselves  and  found  them  trustworthy,  but  I  fear  the  time  to  intro- 
duce the  "Honor  System"  among  a  peo])lc  so  swayed  by  their  preju- 
dices and  personal  feelings  and  so  lacking  in  self-control  and  fairness 
of  judgment  is  a  long  way  off. 

A  Week  of  Pi-ayer  for  the  girls  alone  was  conducted  by  Mr.  Labaree. 
There  was  much  spiritual  interest,  a  turning  away  from  old  sins  and  a 
real  longing  after  holier  living.  I  believe  the  meetings  meant  to  many 
of  the  girls  a  new  start  and  a  forward  step  in  the  Christian  life.  One 
evening,  rather  late,  a  girl  came  to  me  and  asked  me  to  go  down  to  her 
room,  as  the  girls  were  in  great  distress  and  could  not  go  to  bed.  I 
went  down  and  found  ten  or  eleven  girls  seated  in  a  circle  on  the  floor, 
around  the  lamp,  each  one  with  her  Bible,  and  several  of  them  in  tears. 
There  were  many  earnest,  thoughtful  questions  asked,  and  many 
heartfelt  prayers  offered,  each  one  praying  for  herself  and  making 
vows  of  new  obedience  before  we  separated. 

On  June  i8  a  class  of  eight  girls  were  graduated.  The  baccalaureate 
sermon  was  preached  in  the  church  by  Dr.  Coan  under  considerable 
difficulty,  for,  while  in  the  midst  of  the  service,  word  was  brought  that 
a  party  of  men  who  had  gone  out  of  the  city  on  a  tour  of  inspection  had 
been  surrounded  and  captured  by  Kurds.  The  congregation  became 
panic-stricken  and  rose  up  and  left  the  church.  The  report  proved  to 
be  false  and  the  sermon  was  preached  in  the  afternoon.  The  Com- 
mencement exercises  were  held  in  the  new  church  for  the  first  time, 
before  an  orderly  and  appreciative  audience  of  800  people,  although 
the  country  was  in  such  a  state  of  terror  and  excitement  over  the 
Kurdish  raids  that  we  greatly  feared  that  we  might  not  be  able  to 
have  a  Commencement. 

There  have  been  during  the  term :

The  Statistics  for  the  MEDICAL  WORK  show  103  in- 
patients, 4,308  dispensary  patients,  1,812  patients  seen  in  the 
city  and  villages,  and  1,175  seen  on  tours,  total  7,408.  Fees 
received  were  1,419  tomans.  Last  year  there  were  70  in- 
patients and  6,000  out-patients,  and  the  fees  received  were 
582  tomans.  The  growth,  however,  is  not  all  represented  by 
the  figures,  for  Dr.  Packard's  reputation,  especially  as  a  sur- 
geon, has  been  growing  steadily.  During  the  current  year 
both  the  number  of  patients  and  the  fees  received  are  increas- 
ing very  decidedly.  The  equipment  of  the  hospital  has  been 
improved  by  the  new  building  erected  in  memory  of  Dr. 
Cochran  by  S.  M.  Clement,  Esq.,  of  Buffalo,  N.  Y.,  who  is 
such  a  faithful  friend  of  the  medical  work.  This  building 
connects  the  two  older  buildings,  making  an  imposing  front. 
We  have  room  now  for  75  in-patients,  besides  far  better 
equipment  for  surgical  work  than  ever  before.  The  dedica- 
tion of  this  building  was  the  occasion  of  a  very  notable  gather- 
ing. The  nobility  of  the  city,  the  chief  Mohammedan  eccle-

siastics,  the  Government  officials,  Turkish  Boundary  Commis- 
sioners, the  foreign  Consuls  in  Urumia,  Hon.  W.  F.  Doty,  U.  S. 
Consul  at  Tabriz,  members  of  the  different  Missions,  and 
representatives  of  the  different  Christian  and  the  Jewish 
community  made  up  the  audience.  Among  the  speakers 
were  Dr.  Wilson  of  Tabriz,  Mr.  Doty,  and  the  Governor  of 
Urumia,  who  as  chief  boundary  commissioner  is  one  of  the 
leading  statesmen  in  Persia.  The  assembly  was  a  remark- 
able tribute  to  the  position  occupied  by  the  Mission,  due  in  so 
large  a  degree  to  the  life  and  character  of  Dr.  Cochran.  The 
tributes  to  his  memory  were  hearty  and  fitly  expressed,  and 
the  recognition  of  the  good  work  of  the  hospital  was  most 
cordial. 

The  work  of  the  PRESS  has  gone  on  steadily,  though  much 
hampered  by  lack  of  funds.  The  pages  printed  were  i  ,295 ,900 
compared  with  1,051,945  last  year.  Of  this  total  amount 
320,000  were  for  outside  parties,  but  of  this  270,000  pages 
were  for  The  Star,  a  very  good  Syriac  paper  published  by 
Syrians  and  doing  very  excellent  missionary  work  without 
cost  to  Mission  funds.     The  sales  were:

It  is  encouraging  that  the  editions  of  new  good  books,  such 
as  "Three  Great  Missionaries"  and  "Poor  Boys  Who.  Have 
Become  Famous,"  are  sold  much  more  rapidly  than  used  to 
be  the  case.  Among  the  recent  issues  are  a  Persian  and  a 
Syriac  biography  of  Dr.  Cochran,  made  possible  by  the 
generosity  of  Mr.  S.  M.  Clement. 

To  estimate  what  is  being  accomplished  by  this  varied 
machinery  of  missionary  work  is  beyond  human  knowledge. 
The  Mission  is  a  Christian  institution,  touching  the  life  of 
the  people  in  innumerable  ways  and  preaching  the  Gospel 
through  many  agencies.  Other  methods  of  work  might  be 
enumerated  besides  those  already  mentioned,  such  as  relief 
work  for  the  needy,  help  to  the  oppressed,  co-operation  in 
educational  and  social  efforts.     It  may  perhaps  be  instructive

WESTERN  PERSIA— URUMlA.  355 

to  compare  the  statistics  now  and  ten  years  ago.  It  should  be 
remembered  that  these  ten  years  mark  the  period  since  the 
Russian  movement,  which  changed  the  circumstances  of 
work  among  the  Syrians  and  for  a  time  restricted  that  work. 

The  church  membership  in  Persia  was  2,158  in  1898,  and  in 
1908,  2,804,  an  increase  in  ten  years  of  30  per  cent.  This  is 
not  satisfactory,  but  some  allowance  must  be  made  for  the 
hindrances  just  mentioned.  During  the  same  period  the 
number  of  preachers  has  diminished  from  46  to  25,  a  change 
for  the  better  as  making  for  consolidation  and  better  organi- 
zation rather  than  retrenchment. 

The  number  of  village  schools  was  then  70  with  1,585 
pupils.  It  is  now  48  with  1,460,  or  in  1907,  63  with  1,787 
pupils.  There  is  real  growth  here,  for  the  average  per  school 
has  increased  from  2  2  to  30.  In  the  college  there  were  reported 
then  89  pupils,  and  now  67.  In  Fiske  Seminary  there  were 
only  20  pupils  in  1898,  the  school  being  closed,  but  in  1896 
there  were  77  pupils;  now  there  are  92.  The  two  Moslem 
schools  with  152  pupils  have  almost  entirely  grown  up  since 
1898. 

In  giving  the  growth  has  been  marked  (reckoned  in  tomans) :

1907 1.815  941  300  696  391  4,143 

This  shows  a  general  increase  of  the  gifts  given  through  the 
agency  of  the  churches  for  1908  of  70  per  cent,  and  for  1907 
of  no  per  cent.  As  explained  above,  special  causes  have 
operated  to  diminish  the  gifts  this  year,  and  90  per  cent, 
would  be  a  fairer  figure  than  70  per  cent,  for  the  growth. 
The  greatest  growth,  about  300  per  cent.,  has  been  for  village 
schools.  During  the  same  period  the  receipts  in  the  schools 
under  direct  Mission  control  has  increased  as  follows:  Fiske 
Seminary,  from  some  200  tomans  to  900  tomans,  and  in  the 
college  from  13  or  14  tomans  for  each  paying  pupil  to  above  20. 
The  medical  fees  in  1898  were  450  tomans,  and  in  1897  for 
15  months  950  tomans,  while  last  year  they  were  1,419,  and 
the  current  year  promise  to  be  near  2,000. 

The  pages  printed  in  1898  were  203,100  and  in  1899  1,264,- 
100,  and  this  year  1,295,900,  showing  no  real  increase;  but 
sales  of  books  have  increased:  in  1898,  Scriptures  120  tomans 
and  other  books  168,  while  this  year  Scriptures  174  tomans 
and  other  books,  etc.,  456  tomans. 

Moslem  Boys'  School. — Dr.  Shedd  reports: 

The  67  pupils  enrolled  were  57  Moslems,  8  Syrians,  i  Jew  and  i 
Armenian.     The  teachers  have  been  the  same  as  last  year,  viz..  Rev. 


356  WESTERN  PERSIA— TABRIZ. 

Jacob  David,  Rabi  Yosep  Issa,  and  Lisan  ul  Hizour.  I  think  that  iii 
another  year  we  shall  be  able  to  give  diplomas  to  several  students  for 
a  course  of  study  fully  equivalent  in  ainount  and  value  of  work  to  the 
academic  course  in  the  college  here,  and  nearly  equivalent  to  the  pre- 
paratory course  in  Beirut  College.  Such  a  course  would  include  a 
practical  knowledge  of  Persian,  English  and  French,  a  good  grounding 
in  arithmetic  and  geography,  and  some  knowledge  of  history,  physi- 
ology and  elementary  ethics.  It  is  also  highly  desirable  to  include  as 
much  instruction  in  the  Scriptures  as  may  be  practicable.  Prayer  and 
reading  the  Bible  have  been  a  regular  part  of  the  daily  program. 

I  was  interested  not  long  since  in  attending  by  invitation  the  exhi- 
bition given  by  one  of  the  Persian  schools.  The  scene  was  interesting 
and  significant  as  illustrating  the  real  change  that  is  going  on  and  the 
transitional  state  of  things.  The  school  is  taught  by  a  sayyid,  and  the 
audience  was  made  up  largely  of  sayyids  and  mullahs,  some  of  them 
people  of  prominence.  The  lessons  included  English,  and  it  sounded 
very  strange  to  hear  English  poems  recited  in  that  audience,  the 
elements  of  the  religious  faith  of  the  Moslems  including  the  Mohamme- 
dan cosmogony,  and  geography  including  the  Copemican  theory. 
The  Titlis  paper,  Mullah,  Nasr  ed  Din  (conducted  by  Moslems),  had 
recently  a  cartoon  representing  the  examination  of  a  school,  in  which 
the  chief  visitor,  a  mullah,  and  his  companions  were  holding  up  their 
hands  in  holy  horror  at  the  explanation  by  a  pupil  of  the  earth's  revo- 
lution about  the  sun ,  and  exclaimed ,  ' '  Not  a  word  is  said  about  the 
ox,  and  that  in  the  presence  of  the  Kazi!"  But  in  my  friend's  school 
pupils  are  taught  both — that  the  earth  rests  on  the  horns  of  an  ox, 
and  that  it  revolves  ah>out  the  sun.  In  the  examination  we  heard  only 
the  latter,  and  yet  the  teacher  received  the  compliment  of  a  gift  of  a 
cloak  from  one  of  the  principal  mullahs  of  the  city.  It  is  hard  to  realize 
that  even  the  simplest  scientific  ideas  raise  a  conflict  with  the  teachings 
of  religion,  though  it  is  not  so  many  centuries  since  the  persecution  of 
Copernicus.  The  conflict  of  science  with  teachings  connected  with  the 
name  of  Christianity  may  help  us  to  realize  what  the  conflict  will 
and  must  be  between  science  and  Islam  Schools  will  help  on  this 
ferment,  a  process  full  of  peril  as  well  as  hope,  but  infinitely  more 
perilous  in  irreligious  or  ill-informed  schools  than  in  Christian  schools 
of  a  good  standard.  Moreover,  nothing  can  take  the  place  of  schools 
in  bringing  us  missionaries  in  touch  with  a  very  influential  class  of 
persons  in  the  commtmity,  the  most  open-minded  of  all,  and  in  many 
ways  the  ones  whose  influence  will  mold  the  future. 

TABRIZ  STATION. 

^The  evangelistic  work  in  the  city  has  been  less  interfered 
with  than  one  would  believe  to  be  possible  in  a  city  in  which 
civil  war  was  raging  every  day,  but  large  companies  have 
attended  the  preaching  services,  with  a  far  fuller  attendance 
of  Mohammedans  than  ever  before,  and  for  a  good  part  of  the 
year  the  country  work  has  gone  forward,  Mr.  Jessup  and  Mr. 
Pittman  having  spent  no  little  time  especially  in  the  Salmas 
region. 

Dr.  Wright  reports  of  the  evangelistic  work  in  the  city  : 

I  never  saw  a  greater  willingness  to  hear  the  Word  of  the  Kingdom, 
but  poUtical  distractions  and  worldly  cares,  I  fear,  may  often  have 
choked  it  and  made  it  imfruitful.  A  goodly  mimber  of  persons,  how- 
ever, have  shown  marked  interest.  One  of  these  was  a  teacher  of 
geography  in  a  Moslem  school.  He  became  so  much  interested  in  the 
Turkish  hymns  that  he  was  moved  to  compose  some  himself.  He 
has  handed  in  to  me  three  hjnnns  which  are  thoroughly  evangeUcal, 


WESTERN  PERSIA— TABRIZ.  357 

and  I  hope  they  will  be  included  in  the  next  edition  of  the  Hymnal. 
He  also  wrote  a  tract  on  "The  Guide  to  Life"  which  is  full  of  gospel 
truth  and  spirit. 

Another  young  man  became  so  absorbed  in  spiritual  inqviiry  that 
his  father,  a  mullah,  threatened  to  poison  him,  so  he  fled  to  Urumia. 
Not  understanding  the  formal  requirements  for  church  membership 
and  feeling  that  he  was  a  Christian,  when  communion  occurred  he  par- 
took of  the  sacred  emblems  of  the  broken  body  and  shed  blood.  He 
soon  afterwards  called  upon  me.  He  was  filled  with  almost  ecstatic 
joy  at  the  thought  of  having  thus  made  his  confession  of  faith  and 
having  obeyed  the  command,  "Do  this  in  remembrance  of  me."  He 
believed  he  had  joined  the  church,  and  so  reported  when  he  fled  soon 
after  to  Urumia.  This  youth  had  a  great  desire  to  become  an  evan- 
gelist, and  seems  to  have  done  considerable  good  work  in  that  way 
both  here  and  elsewhere. 

EDUCATIONAL  WORK.— Memorial  School.— Dr.  AVilson 
reports : 

On  July  4,  1907,  processions  containing  15,000  volunteers  marched 
through  the  streets  of  Tabriz,  rejoicing  in  their  constitutional  liberty, 
and  filled  with  patriotic  love  for  their  newly  awakened  country.  On 
July  4,  1908,  the  city  was  divided  into  opposite  camps  in  internecine 
strife.  One  party,  consisting  largely  of  mullahs  and  ofHcials,  landlords 
and  pensioners,  supporting  the  Shah,  were  confident  that  they  would 
crush  the  Liberals,  even  as  the  Shah  had  scattered  the  Parliament  in 
Teheran.  The  other  was  crying  out,  "Down  with  absolutism!" 
"Long  live  the  Constitution!" 

In  Tabriz  the  intervening  year  has  been  one  of  progress  in  popular 
government.  In  the  administration  of  justice,  the  regulation  of  the 
police,  the  improvement  of  the  streets,  the  promotion  of  education, 
the  curbing  of  avaricious  landowners  and  wheat  speculators,  and  in  the 
exemplification  of  the  principles  of  civil  and  religious  liberty,  the  new 
regime  was  manifesting  its  superiority. 

The  Memorial  School  felt  the  quickening  impulse.  While  the 
attendance  of  Armenians  showed  no  dimintition,  the  number  of  Per- 
sians doubled,  the  classes  filled  up,  the  regularity  of  the  grades  was 
perfected.  The  political  unrest  made  the  attendance  irregular  and 
distracted  the  minds  of  the  larger  pupils  from  their  studies,  so  that 
the  year  was  trying  to  the  teachers.  A  disappointment,  mingled  with 
satisfaction,  arose  from  the  demand  for  teachers  in  the  new  Persian 
schools,  which  drew  away  a  number  of  our  best  pupils  and  interrupted 
their  course  of  study. 

The  enrollment  of  the  school  was:  Armenians  133,  Syrians  6, 
Persians  124,  of  whom  92  were  classified  and  32  special  pupils.  At  no 
time  did  the  Persians  exceed  100.  Total  enrollment  263,  at  the  end 
of  the  year  230.  Of  these  24  were  boarders  from  Maragha,  Khoi, 
Salmas,  Urumia,  Resht,  Kurdistan  and  the  Van  Orphanage. 

The  closing  exercises  were  on  June  24.  Besides  declamations  and 
essays,  there  were  a  dialogue  in  Armenian,  well  representing  Oriental 
life,  and  a  scene  from  the  "Merchant  of  Venice"  well  performed. 
Seven  Armenians  and  seven  Persians  passed  from  the  common  to  the 
High  School.  The  High  School  pupils  were  kept  for  further  study 
the  coiirse  being  prolonged  another  year.  On  the  day  previous  the 
Persian  pupils  were  dismissed  consequent  on  disturbances  due  to  the 
coup  d'etat  in  Teheran,  the  bombardment  of  the  Parliament,  and  the 
imprisonment  of  its  members.  We  had  intended  to  continue  their 
lessons  several  hours  daily  during  the  summer.  But  soon  the  war 
broke  out  between  the  Royalists  and  the  Constitutionalists.  A  hun- 
dred days  of  bloodshed  and  pillage  followed  All  business  was  sus- 
pended, the  bazaars  and  factories  closed,  travel  interrupted      At  times

the  city  was  surrounded,  provisions  cut  off,  and  thousands  on  the  verge 
of  starvation.  Fifteen  hundred  houses  were  looted  and  destroyed, 
500  shops  pillaged,  inore  than  1,000  people  killed.  Thousands  aban- 
doned their  homes  for  security  in  other  parts  of  the  city.  After  a  long 
and  bitter  struggle  the  Royalists  were  defeated  and  the  Nationalists 
remained  in  possession  of  the  city. 

When  on  the  withdrawal  of  the  Shah's  troops  the  Nationalists  took 
possession  of  the  whole  city,  at  the  end  of  Ramazan,  we  allowed  our 
Persian  pupils  to  return.  From  90  to  100  have  been  enrolled,  and 
these  are  more  regular  and  better  graded  than  ever  before.  Yet  quite 
a  number  are  still  in  the  villages  where  they  fled  to  escape  the  ravages 
of  war. 

Saddest  of  all  is  the  story  of  Sayid  Hasan  Sharifzada,  our  teacher 
of  Persian  and  Arabic,  and  our  most  advanced  pupil  of  the  Persians. 
A  son  of  a  prominent  mullah,  when  he  came  to  us  to  study  five  years  ago 
he  concealed  his  coming  from  his  own  family.  As  one  of  the  "Intel- 
lectuals" of  the  new  movement,  a  writer,  editor  and  eloquent  speaker 
for  the  Constitutional  party,  he  was  on  the  proscribed  list  of  the  Royal- 
ists, and  his  house  was  attacked  and  his  library  destroyed.  He  took 
refuge  at  the  French  Consulate.  Later  on  he  left  his  refuge  under  a  safe 
conduct  to  act  as  peace  envoy,  and  as  he  was  returning  from  a  Popular 
Assembly,  in  which  he  advocated  reconciliation,  he  was  shot  down  by 
the  Consulate  gate.  He  was  greatly  admired  and  is  deeply  mourned. 
His  equal  as  a  teacher  cannot  be  found  among  the  Persians  in  the  city. 
His  training  reflected  great  credit  upon  our  school. 

Present  conditions  affect  us  even  financially.  Several  months' 
tuition  were  cut  off,  and  many  of  the  pupils  returning  are  in  great 
financial  stress.  Owing  to  the  disturbed  condition  of  the  province, 
fewer  boarders  could  come  in  from  a  distance.  Instead  of  them,  how- 
ever, Persians  of  a  higher  class  are  applying  to  come  as  boarders.  We 
are  charging  them  what  we  hope  will  be  a  full  support,  i.e.,  sixty  tomans 
for  board  and  five  tomans  for  tuition.  It  doubtless  marks  a  new  era 
in  the  development  of  our  school  and  of  Moslem  education  in  this  part 
of  Persia.  It  shows  how  prejudice  has  lessened  and  bigotry  decreased. 
It  shows  the  confidence  of  the  Moslems  in  our  moral  and  intellectual 
training. 

Girls'  Boarding  School. — Mrs.  Van  Hook  took  charge  of  the 
school  on  Miss  Beaber's  return  on  furlough.  It  was  like 
returning  to  old  and  former  days  for  Mrs.  Van  Hook,  who 
years  ago  was  in  charge  of  the  school.     She  writes: 

We  hear  sometimes  of  the  ingratitude  with  which  missionaries  meet, 
but  for  myself  I  have  had  a  cup  ntnning  over  of  faithfulness  and  devo- 
tion on  the  part  of  those  for  whom  I  have  spent  mj^  life,  and  only  wish 
I  had  another  to  give  to  their  children  and  grandchildren. 

I  received  64  pupils  from  Miss  Beaber — 14  boarders  and  50  day 
scholars. 

Seven  girls  publicly  received  Bibles  as  a  reward  for  reciting  the 
Shorter  Catechism  perfectly,  which  they  do  without  the  questions 
being  asked. 

About  a  month  before  school  closed,  visiting,  in  company  with  the 
other  ladies  of  the  mission,  the  Nusrt-i-Dovleh,  a  cousin  of  the  Shah, 
and  wife  of  a  man  of  high  rank,  the  conversation  turned  upon  the  sub- 
ject of  schools,  as  this  lady  is  wealthy  and  public-spirited  and  much 
interested  in  the  question  of  education  for  Moslem  girls.  In  the  course 
of  the  conversation  she  remarked  that  she  did  not  know  we  had  a 
school  for  girls.  I  determined  I  would  show  her  the  school,  and  so 
Thursday,  the  iSth  of  June,  I  invited  a  company  of  Moslem  ladies, 
arranging  a  program  of  such  exercises  as  I  thought  would  be  interest- 
ing and  show  the  work  of  the  school  as  far  as  possible  in  another  Ian-

guage,  for  the  language  of  the  schoul  is  Armenian.  Those  who  could 
read  Turkish  read  portions  of  Scripture  and  songs  that  were  recited 
or  simg  by  the  school  in  Armenian.  The  one  class  in  Persian  and  the 
classes  in  Turkish  read  selections,  there  was  some  singing  in  Turkish, 
and  the  exercises  were  enlivened  by  some  kindergarten  pieces  which 
were  explained,  and  then  was  shown  the  calisthenic  drill  which  Miss 
Beaber  has  matle  a  point  of,  and  the  pretty  evolutions  were  enjoyed, 
as  they  always  are,  by  all  who  see  them.  At  the  close  of  the  exercises 
one  of  the  ladies  presented  an  address,  which  she  read  gracefully  as 
follow-s : 

"I  am  proud  that  to-day  we  have  realized  that  wish  which,  from 
our  earliest  time  until  now,  we  have  talked  about  day  and  night  with 
earnest  longings  for  its  accomplishment,  which  is  that  there  might  be 
opened  for  the  noble  daughters  of  our  native  land  a  blessed  and  happy 
door  of  emancipation,  and  that  there  might  shine  forth  for  the  children 
of  our  own  land  the  light  of  knowledge  and  excellent  training. 

"Thanks  be  to  God,  this  wish  has  been  realized  to-day,  and  we  have 
the  honor  to  be  present  and  participate  in  this  great  assembly.  It  is 
the  first  time  in  history  that  we  have  had  the  honor  of  being  present 
at  the  examination  of  a  girls'  school,  and  it  is  the  fruit  of  the  labors 
of  these  lady  teachers  that  we  have  attained  to  this  honorable  dis- 
tinction. However  much  we  may  express  our  thankfulness,  it  will  be 
but  a  small  compensation  for  the  trouble  they  have  taken.  We  ask 
God  to  give  us  the  grace  and  ability  to  understand  more  fully  the 
worth  of  their  beneficence,  that  we  may  become  able  to  gviide,  like 
them,  the  children  of  men  from  the  darkness  of  ignorance  into  the 
enlightenment  of  knowledge.  Perhaps  in  this  way  we  may  be  al)le  to 
right  the  wrongs  of  the  past.  In  reference  to  these  honorable  ladies, 
knowledge  is  the  light  of  the  world,  and  this  is  the  light  they  have 
lighted  for  us. 

"Iftahar  Zada." 

Some  of  the  ladies  asked  her  if  she  had  been  in  the  school,  that  she 
expressed  herself  so  warmly.  She  replied  no,  but  her  father  owed 
all  that  he  was  to  us. 

MEDICAL  WORK.— There  has  been  a  great  deal  of  sick- 
enss  in  the  city  and  among  the  missionary  children  during  the 
year  and  Dr.  Vanneman  has  been  overburdened  with  work, 
especially  in  the  absence  of  Dr.  Bradford,  the  health  of  whose 
mother  has  continued  to  prevent  her  return  to  the  field.

THE  PHILIPPINE  MISSION. 

The  Philippine  Mission  has  completed  the  first  decade  of 
its  history.  April  21,  1899,  the  Rev.  Dr.  and  Mrs.  James 
R.  Rodgers  arrived  in  Manila,  jUvSt  one  year  after  the  declara- 
tion of  war  by  the  United  States  against  Spain.  Their 
knowledge  of  Portuguese  enabled  them  to  acquire  vSpanish 
with  ease,  and  Dr.  Rodgers  preached  his  first  sermon  on  the 
first  Sunday  of  May,  the  anniversary  of  Commodore  Dewey's 
victory.  The  Presbyterian  Church  may  take  a  pardonable 
pride  in  knowing  that  it  sent  the  first  permanent  resident 
American  missionary  to  the  Philippine  Archipelago,  though 
missionaries  of  other  churches  soon  followed. 

The  formation  of  the  Evangelical  Union  of  the  Philippines 
was  a  notable  event  in  practical  missionary  comity,  the 
representatives  of  the  various  Protestant  Missions  making  a 
territorial  division  of  the  field  so  as  to  avoid  overlapping, 
and  permit  the  most  economical  and  efficient  use  of  men  and 
money. 

We  have  great  reason  to  be  thankful  to  God  for  the  record 
of  this  first  decade.  In  Tripoli,  Syria,  the  missionaries  toiled 
six  years  before  they  saw  the  first  convert,  and  nine  years 
more  before  they  saw  the  second.  In  Japan,  seven  years 
passed  before  one  convert  was  enrolled.  The  missionaries  in 
Korea  were  cheered  because  after  seven  years  of  hard  work 
twenty-three  Koreans  partook  of  the  Lord's  Supper,  and 
because  the  end  of  the  first  decade  saw  100  converts.  Carey 
in  India  waited  seven  years  for  his  first  convert.  Tyler 
labored  fifteen  years  before  a  single  Zulu  accepted  Christ. 
Gilmour,  in  Mongolia,  was  visibly  rewarded  by  only  one  con- 
vert in  twenty  years;  and  seven  years  passed  before  Morrison's 
heart  was  gladdened  by  the  sight  of  a  Chinese  convert.  But 
though  the  full  ten  years  of  work  in  the  Philippines  will  not 
be  completed  until  six  months  after  the  making  out  of  our 
statistical  report,  the  figures  show  that  Presbyterians  alone 
have  approximately  10,000  adult  communicants  in  the  Philip- 
pine Islands,  and  that,  including  the  members  of  other  Mis- 
sions, there  are  now  approximately  40,000  members  of  Pro- 
testant Churches.  This  is  a  remarkable  record.  It  cannot  be 
explained  by  interested  motives  on  the  part  of  the  Filipinos, 
for  the  American  Government  officials  early  gave  the  people 
to  understand  that  Americans  separated  Church  and  State, 
and  that  no  Fi]i[)ino  would  gain  credit  with  the  Government 
;-t()()

by  leaving  the  Roman  Catholic  Church.  Yet  the  interest  of 
the  people  in  the  Gospel  is  constantly  increasing,  and  this 
Mission  has  become  one  of  the  most  fruitful  fields  in  the  world. 
Being  a  young  Mission,  its  missionaries  are,  of  course,  young 
also,  and  while  the  success  of  the  work  is  the  Lord's  doing  and 
is  marvelous  in  our  eyes,  great  credit  is  due  to  them  for  the 
wisdom  and  energy  with  which  they  formulated  their  plans, 
adopted  themselves  to  the  peculiar  conditions  and  speedily 
developed  a  great  and  prosperous  work. 

Many  in  this  country  ignorantly  imagine  that  Protestants 
are  in  the  Philippines  to  hght  the  Roman  Catholic  Church. 
Perhaps  they  have  been  deceived  by  the  frequent  claims  of 
Roman  Catholics  that  the  Filipinos  belong  to  that  commu- 
nion. As  a  matter  of  fact,  the  sixteen  tribes  of  Indonesians 
were  never  Roman  Catholic;  they  are  Mohammedans.  Nor 
are  the  twenty-one.  tribes  of  Negritos  Roman  Catholics; 
they  are  Pagans.  Of  the  approximately  6,000,000  Malays, 
Bishop  Brent  of  Manila  said  about  a  year  ago  that  more 
than  4,000,000  had  left  the  Roman  Catholic  Church  and 
followed  Aglipay,  that  able  Filipino  priest  who  has  taken 
advantage  of  the  popular  revolt  against  the  Roman  Catholic 
Church  to  found  an  independent  Catholic  Church,  a  Church 
which  has  no  real  spiritual  basis,  but  is  animated  largely  by 
hatred  of  Rome  and  the  furtherance  of  Filipino  national 
feeling.  Thus  the  Roman  Catholic  Church  to-day  is  reaching 
less  than  half  of  the  population  of  the  Islands. 

The  Protestant  Churches  are  therefore  called  to  the  Philip- 
pines, not  only  by  the  general  missionary  summons  to  preach 
the  Gospel  to  all  men,  not  only  because  it  is  as  unthinkable 
as  it  is  un-American  that  any  section  of  American  soil  should 
be  denied  religious  freedom  by  making  it  the  exclusive  pre- 
serve of  any  one  Church,  but  by  the  fact  that  a  majority  of  the 
people  of  the  Archipelago  are  now  actually  as  accessible  to 
the  Protestant  missionaries  as  to  the  Roman  Catholic,  and 
that  we  can  do  for  them  what  urgently  needs  to  be  done. 
Indeed,  the  Protestant  missionaries,  so  far  from  forcing  them- 
selves upon  the  Philippines,  have  thus  far  been  able  to  do 
but  little  aggressive  proselyting,  the  Filipinos  voluntarily 
flocking  to  them  in  such  numbers  that  all  their  time  has  been 
required  for  instruction  and  organization.

MANILA  STATION. 

The  work  of  Manila  Station  has  been  divided  as  formerly. 
Dr.  Rodgers  has  had  responsibility  for  evangelistic  work; 
Mr.  Lamb  for  books  and  printing  and  business  matters, 
being  Mission  and  Station  Treasurer;  Mr,  Wright,  educational 
work  among  men,  and  Miss  Bartholomew,  educational  work 
among  women;  Dr.  Rossiter  and  Mr.  Hillis  have  shared  the 
responsibility  for  the  American  Church.  Each,  however, 
has  assisted  the  other,  but  definite  responsibility  has  been 
as  stated. 

Dr.   and   Mrs.   Rossiter  were  home   on   furlough   from  April  until 
December;  otherwise  there  were  no  absences  from  the  field  during 
364 


PHILIPPINE  ISLANDS— MANILA.  365 

the  3^ear.  There  has  been,  however,  consiilerable  ill  health  among 
the  women  of  the  Station,  Mrs.  Hillis,  Mrs.  Rodgers  and  Mrs.  Wright 
each  having  undergone  surgical  operations  froin  which  they  are  now 
happily  recovering.  Mrs.  Lamb  has  not  been  robust  at  any  time. 
Despite  ill  health,  however,  it  has  been  a  very  happ}'-  and  blessed  year. 

EVANGELISTIC  WORK  (Dr.  Rodgers,  Superintendent).— 
Pastors  Estrella  and  Zarco  and  Evangelists  Juan  Estrella 
and  Gil  Domingo  have  worked  in  different  fields.  Sr.  Estrel- 
la's  salary  has  been  provided  by  the  Y.  P.  S.  C.  E.  of  the  First 
Church  of  Manila  and  Sr.  Domingo's  by  the  Mission  to  the 
Lepers  of  England.  Sr.  Estrella  died  November  26  of  beri- 
beri. His  death  was  a  great  loss.  He  had  been  an  ofhcer 
in  the  Constabulary,  but  felt  himself  so  called  to  the  spreading 
of  the  Gospel  that  he  resigned  and  became  an  evangelist.  He 
had  the  spirit  of  God  in  great  measure  and  was  blessed  in 
the  conversion  of  many  souls. 

The  churches  in  this  field  include  one  in  Laguna,  that  of 
Binan,  two  in  Rizal,  sixteen  in  Cavite,  and  five  in  Batangas, 
as  well  as  the  two  Filipino  churches,  with  their  various 
branches.  They  have  suffered  little  or  no  persecution. 
There  was  a  little  flurry  over  the  arrest  in  Cawit  of  two  of  the 
local  evangelists  for  preaching  in  the  street  without  permis- 
sion. They  were  subjected  to  some  insult  and  unfairly  con- 
demned by  the  justice  of  the  peace  of  the  town,  but  an  appeal 
to  the  Court  of  First  Instance  broitght  their  prompt  release. 

The  Tondo  Church  had  an  excellent  year  under  the  guidance  of 
Pastor  Estrella.  The  people  have  not  yet  reached  the  point  of  paj'ing 
his  salar}^;  we  trust  that  they  will  do  so  ere  long. 

The  provincial  churches  have  had  their  ups  and  downs.  Some  of 
the  mothers  are  weaker  than  their  daughters.  Kawit.  after  a  period 
of  discouragement,  has  been  greatly  blessed  through  the  ministry 
of  Pastor  Adriano  of  Antique,  who  while  on  a  visit  to  this  island  was 
greatl}^  used  in  Kawit  and  San  Roque.  The  Imus  Church  has  con- 
tinued its  excellent  record. 

New  chapels  are  slowly  progressing  in  Kawit  and  Binan.  The  slow- 
ness of  their  growth  is  due  to  the  higher  ideals  on  the  part  of  the  people 
in  the  matter  and  manner  of  construction  than  funds  warranted. 
When  the  buildings  arc  done,  however,  they  will  be  substantial  and 
attractive  in  every  way. 

The  churches  on  the  back  hills  of  Cavite,  especially  that  of  Amadeo, 
have  been  greatly  prospered.  They  have  had  four  pastoral  visits 
during  the  year. 

Dr.  Rodgers  accompanied  Sr.  Zarco  in  October  on  a  visit 
to  the  Batangas  churches.  The  work  in  Bawan,  Batangas 
City  and  Lipa  has  prospered  and  under  Sr.  Zarco 's  enthusiastic 
guidance  has  progressed.  Two  new  churches  have  been 
opened  during  this  year  in  Batangas  Province,  one  at  Cuenca 
near  Lipa  and  the  other  at  Nasugbu  in  the  extreme  northwest 
of  the  province,  through  the  infxuence  of  a  member  of  the 
Bacoor  congregation.     As  this  is  being  written  reports  arrive 


366  PHILIPPINE  ISLANDS— MANILA. 

telling  of  the  opening  of  work  in  Taal  and  Kalek  through  Sr. 
Zarco's  efforts,  and  in  Talisay  by  the  people  from  Amadeo 
in  Cavite. 

The  Province  of  Batangas,  with  its  260,000  people,  offers 
a  field  for  service  that  must  be  occupied.  It  is  too  much  for 
one  man  to  handle,  and  we  strongly  urge  the  appointment  of 
a  missionary  to  reside  in  Batangas. 

Evangelistic  work  this  year  has  been  rendered  easier  by  the 
opening  of  the  Cavite  and  Laguna  lines  of  the  railroad,  saving 
much  time  and  strength.  In  another  year  this  benefit  will  be 
extended  to  some  j:»oints  in  Batangas  and  Tayabas. 

The  Presbytery  has  appointed  a  Committee  on  Home 
Missions,  consisting  of  four  FiHpinos  and  Dr.  Rodgers.  Mem- 
bers of  the  Committee  visited  the  various  churches  of  the 
Presbytery,  and  urged  upon  them  self-support  and  the  neces- 
sity of  a  regular  pastorate  in  the  churches  and  of  contributing 
of  their  means  to  the  work  of  evangelization.  The  Committee 
has  already  visited  five  churches  and  has  been  received  with 
marked  attention  and  Avith  enthusiasm. 

The  congregations  support  themselves  in  large  part  now,  but  they 
have  untrained  men  to  guide  them.  AVhen  they  awaken  to  the  fact 
that  a  man  of  larger  knowledge  will  help  thern  more,  we  believe  that 
they  will  provide  themselves  with  more  efficient  shepherds.  The 
Committee  is  asking  each  congregation  to  contribute  in  money  or  rice 
at  hai-vest  time  such  amottnt  as  may  be  possible. 

EDUCATIONAL.— EZ/y/^yooci  Bible  Seminary  (Mr.  Wright, 
Principal). — The  work  in  ElHnwood  is  divided  into  three 
classes.  First,  the  Bible  Seminary  work  from  June  to  De- 
cember, conducted  in  English  and  Spanish;  second,  the  pro- 
vincial classes,  from  February  to  May,  carried  on  in  Tagalog; 
and  third,  the  dormitory  work  among  the  students  of  the 
Government  Normal  School,  which  runs  through  the  school 
year  from  June  to  March  inclusive,  and  to  which  is  joined  a 
like  work  among  the  Filipino  Government  teachers  gathered 
each  year  in  the  Normal  School  buildings  during  the  vacation 
time  for  from  four  to  six  weeks  in  the  Teachers'  Vacation 
Assembly.  This  report  deals  with  these  classes  of  work 
separately. 

Seminary  Work. — The  training  of  Christian  workers  has 
gradually  evolved  from  conception  through  experiment  into 
definite  courses  and  curriculum. 

In  1907  a  happv  combination  was  entered  into  with  the  Methodist 
Mission,  whereby  the  seminary  of  that  body  and  our  own  brought  both 
students  and  faculties  into  a  union  school.  This  year,  1908,  we  have 
pleasantly  and  successfully  carried  forward  the  same  plan,  and  the 
students  and  work  have  been  so  identified  as  to  eliminate  any  narrow 
interpretation  of  denominalionalism,  while  at  the  same  time  each 
Mission   has  controlled  its  own   students  in   practical  work  and  has 


PHILIPPINE  ISLANDS— MANILA.  367 

financed  its  own  institution.  The  United  Brethren  Mission,  operating 
in  Northern  Luzon,  have  had  two  stvidents  in  attendance  and  expect 
to  send  several  more  next  year,  and  we  are  hoping  will  be  able  also  to 
add  one  member  to  the  faculty.  If  they  are  able  to  do  so  the  Union 
Seminary  work  will  be  thus  thoroughly  shared  by  the  three  denomi- 
nations. 

Of  the  fifty-three  students,  forty  were  Methodists,  eleven 
Presbyterians,  and  two  United  Brethren.  In  December 
we  graduated  our  first  class,  which  numbered  six,  all  of  whom 
we  believe  will  prove  satisfactory  men  in  the  ministry.  Next 
year  we  feel  assured  that  the  number  of  students  will  be  con- 
siderably augmented,  although  it  will  be  wise  to  continue  for 
a  time  the  policy  of  receiving  those  only  for  whom  a  reasonable 
assurance  is  felt  that  work  will  be  found. 

The  two  upper  classes  have  for  the  most  part  been  engaged  in  some 
definite  work  as  regularly  appointed  evangelists.  Such  others  as  have 
not  been  able  to  pay  board  at  the  seminary  have  made  some  return  in 
work.  They  have  worked  very  satisfactorily.  Those  who  are  unwil- 
ling to  work  would  hardly  be  fit  pastors  for  congregations  which  must 
necessarily  be  largely  composed  of  poor  people,  while  those  who  will 
work  thereby  develop  resourcefulness  which  will  make  for  their  larger 
usefulness    in    the   ministry. 

The  regular  teaching  force  among  the  Methodists  has  con- 
sisted of  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Farmer  and  Mr.  Koehler,  and  among 
the  Presbyterians  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Wright  and  Mr.  Lamb.  Mr. 
Hamilton  gave  two  months  to  teaching,  and  Dr.  Rodgers, 
Mr.  Hillis  and  Mrs.  Hamilton  all  helped  at  different  times. 

The  courses  have  been  made  up  in  about  equal  parts  of  Bible, 
Homiletics,  History,  Theology  and  English.  Music  has  also  been 
taught.  In  the  Bible  work  we  have  aimed  at  a  thorough  study  and 
analysis  of  each  book  taken  up.  Ditring  the  three  years  of  the  course 
each  book  of  the  New  Testament  is  studied  in  this  way,  and  many  books 
of  the  Old,  the  balance  being  covered  in  a  more  general  way  by  intro- 
duction. 

As  before  stated,  many  of  the  students  were  already  in  charge  of 
churches  and  most  of  the  Presbyterian  students  were  used  in  meetings 
conducted  by  the  Malate  congregation  in  the  neighborhood.  The 
students  worked  with  this  congregation  in  the  development  of  six 
weekly  evening  meetings  and  in  helping  at  their  five  Sunday-schools. 
These  schools  have  been  developed  by  the  Ellinwood  Girls'  School 
working  with  the  Malate  congregation. 

Provincial  Classes. — The  work  of  the  seminary  has  been 
carried  on  both  in  Spanish  and  in  English ;  the  regular  courses 
will  probably  have  to  be  all  in  English.  The  students  repre- 
sented three  separate  dialects,  Pampangan,  Pangasinan  and 
Ilcano,  and  were  obliged  to  use  English  for  conversation 
among  themselves.  Hence  during  the  vacation  four  con- 
ferences or  institutes  were  held  in  as  many  provinces,  where 
the  teaching  was  all  done  in  Tagalog. 


368  PHILIPPINE  ISLANDS— MANILA. 

One  of  the  principal  churches  in  each  province  sent  invitations  to 
the  neighboring  churches.  Representative  workers  were  thus  brought 
together  for  several  weeks  and  endeavor  was  made  to  give  them,  morn- 
ings and  afternoons,  as  much  instruction  as  possible.  Note-books 
were  used  and  mimeograph  copies  of  the  lesson  distributed,  and  the 
echoes  of  these  classes  are  still  heard.  Evangelistic  meetings  were 
held  evenings,  and  the  town  inviting  the  conference  not  only  thereby- 
profited  in  spiritual  results,  but  an  evangelistic  impulse  was  given  to 
the  entire  province. 

At  the  Laguna  conference  at  Pagsanhan,  fifty-seven  students  were 
enrolled,  the  Cavite  conference  at  Imus  registered  eighty,  the  Tayabas 
conference  at  Lukban  had  sixty,  and  a  final  conference  at  Manila, 
to  care  for  those  who  wished  to  attend  a  second  conference,  as  well  as 
those  who  had  not  been  able  to  attend  elsewhere,  gathered  in  forty- 
eight,  making  a  total  of  245  in  attendance  vipon  the  four  classes. 

We  have  invitations  to  conduct  six  of  these  conferences  the  coming 
year,  and  wc  shall  again  hold  classes  in  the  four  provinces  mentioned, 
another  in  Batangas  at  Lipa,  and  still  another  at  Albay  in  Mr.  Brown's 
field. 

In  all  but  the  Laguna  conference  of  last  year  Miss  Bartholomew 
had  classes  for  women,  and  plans  so  to  do  in  all  the  1909  conferences. 
Dr.  and  Mrs.  Rodgers,  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Hamilton,  Mr,  and  Mrs.  Magill 
and  Mr.  Lamb,  as  well  as  the  Rev.  Monico  Estrella  and  Rev.  Guillermo 
Zarco  and  Sr.  Gil  Domingo,  all  have  assisted  at  one  or  more  of  the 
conferences. 

Dormitory  Work. — The  dormitory  work  w^as  opened  up  with 
the  building  and  has  continued  with  increasing  satisfaction 
ever  since.  Nearly  all  of  our  dormitory  residents  are  students 
of  the  Government  Normal  School,  although  a  few  attend 
the  trade  and  medical  schools. 

'l"he  life  is  that  of  a  large  family  wlun>  eacli  has  interest  in  the  other 
and  the  finest  of  fricndshiji  rules.  Wc  have  chapel  together  froin 
6.30  to  6.45,  when  a  hymn  is  sung,  the  Bible  read  and  i:)ra3'er  offered, 
all  of  course  in  English,  as  these  young  men  come  from  places  all  the 
way  between  Mindanao  and  Northern  Luzon. 

Chapel  attendance  is  reqtiired  of  all,  and  the  opportunity  of  having 
the  first  fifteen  minutes  of  each  day  with  thirty-five  young  men,  the 
Gospel  in  hand  and  each  life  committed  to  God's  keeping  for  the  day, 
is  one  which  the  writer  appreciates  with  his  whole  soul.  From  chapel 
we  go  to  the  moi-ning  meal,  where  God's  blessing  is  asked  upon  the 
Viounty  of  His  hand.  Attendance  upon  a  Sunday  morning  service  at 
7.30  for  all  Filipinos  understanding  English  is  not  required,  but  the 
invitation  extended  is  iisually  accepted  by  a  large  number.  When 
these  services  were  begun  they  were  attended  by  only  four  or  six  of 
the  students,  while  at  the  last  service  of  1908  there  were  less  than  six 
absent. 

Our  building  has  been  full  during  the  year,  sometimes  overcrowded, 
a  number  having  at  times  slept  upon  cots  on  the  porches  or  on  the 
dining-room  floor. 

Wc  could  not  accommodate  all  who  applied,  as  so  inany  of  our  Bible 
school  students  also  shared  the  building;  but  as  far  as  capacity  would 
allow  we  admitted  those  who  came,  regretting  only  our  inability  to 
receive  200  or  300  of  them. 

Before  leaving  for  Mission  meeting,  Mr.  Wright  asked  the 
boys  to  appoint  a  committee  of  three,  with  whom  Mrs.  Wright 


PHILIPPINE  ISLANDS— MANILA.  369 

might  take  up  any  question  of  discipline  during  his  absence. 
They  elected  excellent  men.  One  was  a  theological  student 
who  has  been  working  his  way  through  school,  and  who  has 
been  willing  to  do  any  kind  of  service  from  pounding  the  type- 
writer to  cleaning  bathrooms,  thereby  proving  that  his  willing- 
ness to  work  at  any  honest  toil  had  not  in  any  sense  degraded 
him  in  the  eyes  of  his  fellows  whose  board  was  paid  from 
home. 

During  April  and  May  vacation  the  Teachers'  Vacation 
Assembly  is  held  in  the  Normal  School  buildings,  and  both  the 
men's  and  women's  buildings  are  thrown  open  to  all  that  they 
can  accommodate.  These  teachers  coming  from  all  parts 
of  the  Islands,  a  splendid  opportunity  for  acquaintance  and 
friendship  is  presented.  They,  too,  attend  daily  chapel  and 
are  invited  and  come  to  the  Sunday  services. 

Mr.  Wright  says  that  no  one  ever  hears  a  word  against  his 
own  religious  convictions,  but  on  the  other  hand  he  does  hear 
the  Gospel  in  all  the  dejtth  and  fullness  and  sweetness  that 
he  can  present  it. 

ELLIN  WOOD  SCHOOL  FOR  GIRLS  (Miss  Bartholomew, 
Principal;  Miss  Kalb,  Associate). — The  year  has  been  one 
of  marked  progress  in  women's  work  and  filled  with  blessing. 
The  regular  Bible  school  work  opened  in  June,  but  before  that 
women's  work  was  carried  on  at  three  of  the  vacation  insti- 
tutes, at  Imus,  Lukban  and  Manila. 

At  Imus  about  tliirty-five  women  and  girls  altcnded  the  classes, 
Miss  Bartholomew  conducting  a  class  iti  the  Sunday-scliool  lessons 
and  a  woman's  training  class  in  Tagalog  and  Mrs.  Rodgers  a  class  in 
Spanish  and  in  music.  At  the  institute  at  Lukban  there  was  a  small 
but  very  interesting  class  of  women,  largely  new  inembers  just  begin- 
ning active  work. 

Most  of  the  girls  who  had  studied  at  the  school  the  previous  year 
taught  classes  of  women  or  children  in  their  home  Sunday-schools 
during  vacation,  and  several  taught  additional  classes  in  Catechism 
and  special  lessons  for  children  which  had  been  prepared  for  them  at 
the  school. 

Youth  is  sometimes  precocious  in  these  tropical  regions,  but 
not  all  precocious  girls  are  like  the  one  described  below: 

One  girl  of  fourteen  opened  a  Bible  school  for  more  than  50  children 
in  the  chapel  at  Anuba  in  Cavite  Province.  She  carried  it  on  five 
hours  a  day,  five  days  a  week,  for  six  weeks.  The  coitrse  of  study 
consisted  of  the  life  of  Christ  from  the  Gospel  b}'  Matthew,  the  book 
of  Genesis  and  other  Old  Testament  stories,  the  Catechism,  an  outline 
of  fundamental  Bible  teachings,  hymns  and  the  memorizing  of  passages 
from  the  Bible.  She  held  an  examination  at  the  end,  and  dismissed 
the  class  for  two  weeks'  vacation  before  the  regular  schools  opened 
again.  In  addition  to  this,  she  taught  a  women's  class  twice  a  week 
and  two  Sunday-school  classes  in  different  towns.  This  girl  is  one  of 
the  most  promising  we  have  yet  found. 


370  PHILIPPINE  ISLANDS— MANILA. 

The  regular  school  session  was  held  from  June  ii  to  De- 
cember 5,  with  sixteen  students  enrolled  in  the  Bible  classes. 
This  was  a  great  improvement  over  last  year,  and  it  made 
possible  much  more  satisfactory  work.  The  girls  came  from 
the  provinces  of  Cavite,  Laguna,  Tayabas,  Rizal  and  Iloilo. 
In  addition  to  the  regular  Bible  students,  five  girls  who 
were  students  at  the  Normal  School  boarded  at  the  dormitory 
part  of  the  term,  making  a  total  of  twenty-one. 

Other  ladies  of  the  Station  assisted  Miss  Bartholomew  as 
far  as  other  duties  permitted.  Mrs.  Wright  taught  English 
classes,  Mrs.  Rodgers  instrumental  music,  and  Mrs.  Lamb 
vocal  music.  Dr.  Hamilton  lectured  on  physiology.  His 
lectures  have  been  translated  into  Tagalog  for  use  as  a  text- 
book in  the  school,  and  as  a  means  of  spreading  information 
among  the  Tagalog  women  as  to  how  to  take  care  of  their 
health.  The  arrival  of  Miss  Kalb  in  October  was  a  great 
relief  and  encouragement.  She  taught  one  of  the  classes  in 
English  and  a  Bible  class,  besides  leading  morning  prayers 
for  the  English-speaking  students. 

Considerable  advance  was  made  in  payment  of  board  by  students. 
About  half  the  girls  paid  a  part,  but  onlj'  one  was  able  to  pay  more 
than  half  the  amount  necessary.  The  need  of  providing  scholarships, 
if  we  are  to  get  and  train  the  most  promising  girls  in  the  congregations, 
is  as  pressing  now  as  it  was  a  year  ago.  The  sewing  classes  earned 
enough  for  the  board  of  one  girl,  and  one  other  paid  her  own  way  by 
copying  lessons  on  the  typewriter. 

The  new  Sunday-schools  and  evening  services,  started  by 
the  Malate  congregation  in  the  districts  near  the  school, 
afforded  opportunity  for  practical  work  by  the  students. 
They  attended  three  evening  services  a  week  and  assisted  in 
the  singing;  furnished  teachers  for  children  in  four  Sunday- 
schools  and  two  Saturday  afternoon  classes  in  Catechism  and 
singing.  The  girls  showed  great  enthusiasm  in  this  work, 
and  it  was  a  great  blessing  to  them  in  developing  their  own 
spiritual  life.  All  but  three  of  the  regular  students  had  been 
baptized  before  they  entered  school,  and  these  three  are  now 
ready  for  baptism. 

The  gifts  of  the  Philadelphia  and  the  New  York  Women's  Boards 
have  furnished  the  building  more  adequately,  though  several  needs 
are  still  urgent.  As  in  the  previous  year,  the  girls  did  all  the  work  of 
housekeeping,  preparation  of  their  own  food,  and  their  own  laundry 
work.  That  they  continue  to  do  this  is  highly  desirable,  not  only 
from  the  point  of  view  of  expense,  but  also  of  the  practical  training  of 
the  girls  in  sanitary  methods  of  housekeeping  and  living. 

The  closing  exercises  of  the  school  were  held  December  5. 
Many  of  the  friends  and  relatives  of  the  students  attended 
and  were  favorably  impressed.  The  girls  returned  to  their 
homes  in  time  to  train  the  children  in  the  Sunday-schools  for

the  Christmas  program,  and  good  reports  of  their  work  have 
already  been  received. 

During  the  vacatiun  live-  instiliUcs  arc  to  Ix'  lu'lil  in  iho  prf)viiiccs, 
through  which  wc  hope  to  develop  and  more  fvtlly  organize  the  women's 
work.  The  girls  are  forming  classes  for  women  and  children  in  their 
home  towns,  and  wc  expect  to  spend  as  much  time  as  ptjssiljle  in  devel- 
oping and  superintending  these  classes. 

The  Tondo  Women's  Society  has  been  doing  excellent  work  in  eon- 
ducting  women's  prayer  meetings  in  the  districts  near  the  Tondo 
Church,  and  we  hope  that  the  girls  may  be  able  during  this  vacation 
to  start  similar  work  in  each  town.  We  need  the  earnest  prayer  and 
co-operation  of  the  missionaries  and  evangelists  in  each  province  for 
the  girls  who  are  undertaking  this  imjiortant  work. 

THE  AMERICAN  CHURCH  (Dr.  Rossiter  and  Mr.  Hillis, 
Pastors). — The  American  Chttrch  gives  thanks  to  God  for  an 
unusually  prosperotis  year.  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Rossiter  were 
absent  in  America  part  of  the  year,  but  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Hillis 
carried  on  the  work  with  energy  and  success.  They  made 
about  2,000  calls  this  year,  and  entertained  over  700  callers 
in  their  home,  300  of  them  at  meals.  Mrs.  Hillis  was  treasurer 
of  the  Ladies'  Memorial  Society  and  an  active  member  of 
the  Y.  M.  C.  A.  Auxiliar}-.  A  series  of  lectures  were  delivered 
to  the  yotmg  officers  of  the  Constabulary  School  on  the  Pre- 
servation of  the  Moral  Health  of  the  Young  Ol^cer.  These 
lectures  have  been  ptiblished  by  the  Constabttlary  and  sent 
to  each  officer. 

The  Sunday-school  has  prospered  finely.  Collections  were 
600  pesos.  Enrollment  is  180  as  against  about  eighty  last 
year.  The  increase  is  largely  due  to  the  genius  and  energy 
of  Mr.  H.  S.  Alexander  and  Mr.  George  F.  Unmacht,  the  super- 
intendent and  secretary  respectively.  The  library  now 
numbers  1,000  volumes. 

The  Ladies'  Aid  Society  has  grown  in  spite  of  the  absence  of 
the  president  and  vice-president.  Twenty-two  new  members 
have  been  added,  making  a  membership  of  over  fifty.  Attend- 
ance has  been  gratifying,  averaging  about  twenty-five  at  each 
meeting  during  the  hot  and  rainy  season. 

They  have  worked  to  increase  interest  in  missions.  Over  100  were 
at  the  missionary  tea,  where  reports  w^ere  given  by  missionaries  of 
various  denoininations.  Five  hundred  pesos  worth  of  cash  and  mer- 
chandise were  donated  to  the  Presbytei-ian  Hospitals  in  lloilo  and 
Dumaguete,  and  contributions  were  made  to  the  Ellinwoocl  Schools  in 
Manila.      Six  well-attended  socials  were  given  during  the  year. 

The  Christian  Endeavor  meetings  have  increased  in  attendance  and 
interest. 

The  Baraca  Class  under  Mr.  C.  W.  Hubbell  has  develo,ped  100  young 
men  and  women,  who  have  learned  that  there  are  other  ways  to  have 
a  good  time  in  Manila  than  dancing  and  card  playing.  The  Baraca 
Class  socials  have  been  of  great  influence  in  the  church  work. 

The  Pastor's  Aid  has  quietly  kept  up  its  work.     The  monthly  sex*- 


372  PHILIPPINE  ISLANDS— MANILA. 

nion  has  been  published  under  its  care.  Seven  hundred  copies  of  this 
pubHcation  have  been  sent  to  Americans  in  places  distant  from  Manila, 
or  those  who  have  been  confined  to  homes  or  hospitals  in  the  city. 
The  Invitation  Committee  has  sent  invitations  to  all  the  Americans 
in  the  city. 

The  Quiz  Society  suspended  meetings  during  the  rainy  reason  and 
cholera  time,  but  is  now  well  organized  and  ready  for  work.  Some  of 
these  meetings  have  been  among  the  most  interesting  public  meetings 
in  the  city  during  the  past  year. 

The  Sunday-school  has  opened  a  day-school  for  children  of  kinder- 
garten age,  conducted  by  Mrs.  Hillis.  This  has  filled  a  real  want. 
Fifteen  children  are  in  attendance. 

Congregations  have  been  about  as  last  year,  except  in  the 
rainy  reason.  The  average  morning  attendance  during  the 
year  has  been  about  loo,  but  the  number  of  people  who  have 
been  regular  and  conscientious  in  attending  when  they  could 
has  been  about  300.  The  evening  services  have  averaged 
about  eighty,  the  difference  being  largely  due  to  the  increased 
number  of  showers  in  the  late  afternoon  and  evening  during 
the  rainy  season.  Scarce!}^  a  half  dozen  Sunday  evenings 
have  been  clear  and  pleasant  since  the  latter  part  of  June. 
Deaths  have  been  unusually  numerous,  and  many  have  been 
seriously  ill  from  cholera  and  serious  operations.  Funerals, 
letters  of  condolence  and  visits  to  the  sick  and  bereaved 
have  occupied^^much  of  the  pastor's  time  during  the  past  six 
months.

The  whole  Church  is  in  excellent  working  condition,  united 
in  spirit  and  ready  to  do  things  for  Christ. 


PHILIPPINE  ISLANDS— ILOILO.  373 

ILOILO  STATION. 

It  has  been  a  year  of  faithful  work  and,  we  believe,  of  growth, 
but  comparatively  few  have  been  added  to  the  Church,  espe- 
cially in  the  district  where  the  Gospel  has  been  longest  estab- 
lished, and  the  Station  feels  that  there  is  little  of  special 
interest  to  report. 

One  evangelist  said:  "Formerly  the  people  had  nothing  to  say 
against  our  arguments  for  the  Gospel,  and  were  forced  to  admit  the 
truth  of  what  we  told  them;  but  now  they  are  being  instructed  to 
combat  these  arguinents  and  are  ready  with  counter  arguments  in 
favor  of  Roman  Catholicism."  This  is  not  true  of  any  large  number, 
but  it  affects  some 

In  Antique  Province,  where  work  has  but  recently  begun, 
there  has  been  much  greater  growth  and  now  there  are  little 
congregations  scattered  over  the  country  from  one  end  to  the 
other,  both  on  the  coast  and  in  the  mountains.  As  there  is 
less  opposition  in  this  province,  there  is  every  probability 
that  the  work  will  be  more  extensive  than  in  Iloilo  Province, 
where  Catholicism  has  greater  hold. 

Last  April  we  added  a  pleasurable  and  profitable  feature  in  the 
form  of  a  general  convention  at  Iloilo  of  all  the  members  of  the  pro- 
vince during  Holy  Week.  About  600  assembled.  Practically  every 
village  where  we  have  converts  was  represented  and  the  visitors  were 
entertained  by  the  city  brethren,  to  whom  it  was  a  new  experience. 
It  was  not  an  easy  thing  for  many  whose  earnings  hardly  maintain 
them,  and  yet  they  did  and  wei'e  blessed  in  the  experience  which 
brought  them  into  closer  acquaintance  with  the  people  of  the  villages, 
and  with  the  conditions  under  which  the  Gospel  spreads  in  rural  dis- 
tricts. The  morning  sessions  of  the  convention  were  occupied  with 
addresses  and  discussions  on  "The  Necessity  and  Profit  of  Bible 
Study,"  "Personal  Work,"  and  "Self-support."  The  afternoons  of 
Friday  and  Sattirday  were  taken  up  with  reports  from  the  villages, 
and  on  Sunday  afternoon  all  united  in  celebrating  the  Lord's  Supper. 

The  evening  services  were  evangelistic  and  attracted  the  uncon- 
verted. Special  music  was  prepared  and  the  speakers  presented  the 
Gospel  in  the  clearest,  briefest  and  most  powerful  way.  The  meetings 
were  held  in  an  open  space  between  the  chapel  and  hospital,  where  a 
temporary  shade  was  made  of  bamboo,  covered  with  tarpaulins 
borrowed  from  the  Quartermaster  and  lighted  with  electric  lights. 
It  was  close  enough  to  the  hospital  so  that  the  patients  could  hear  the 
music  and  the  speakers.  Everyone  was  pleased  with  the  convention, 
and  many  expressed  the  hope  that  it  might  be  repeated  next  year. 

In  two  villages  evangelists  have  made  an  effort  to  enlist 
the  children  in  a  sort  of  day-school,  with  considerable  success. 
If  the  children  can  be  interested  no  doubt  the  parents  will 
become  so  also. 

There  has  lately  joined  the  church  at  Iloilo  one  who  in 
Spanish  days  was  probably  the  most  influential  Filipino  in 
the  province. 


374  PHILIPPINE  ISLANDS— TLOILO. 

He  was  treated  in  the  hospital,  became  interested  in  hearing  the 
Gospel  at  inorning  prayers  and  in  seeing  the  nurses  go  about  their 
humble  duties  in  a  way  that  attracted  his  attention.  One  morning 
he  said  to  Dr.  Hall :  "I  see  these  girls,  though  ignorant  and  of  the  lower 
class,  have  something  in  their  life  that  others  have  not."  Day  after 
day  he  had  a  question  or  two  for  the  doctor  when  making  his  rounds 
and  frequently  conversed  with  the  nurses,  being  willing  to  learn  of 
them  also.  On  leaving  the  hospital,  he  attended  regularlj^  all  the 
services  at  the  chapel,  sitting  quietly  in  the  back  seat,  mingling  with 
the  people  as  one  of  them,  and  lately  became  a  member,  confessing  his 
faith  in  Jesus  Christ  as  his  Saviour.  This  man  has  the  respect  and  the 
confidence  of  the  whole  community,  and  on  Thanksgiving  and  at 
Christmas,  when  it  became  known  that  he  would  speak,  large  numbers 
of  his  friends  and  acquaintances  gathered  to  hear  his  humble  confes- 
sion of  the  Master. 

The  Chinese  work  has  been  maintained  throughout  the  year 
with  httle  change.  Many  of  the  members  have  been  absent 
in  China  or  elsewhere  for  a  great  part  of  the  year. 

Mr.  Wong,  the  evangelist,  has  spent  the  year  in  Amoy  at  college, 
being  maintained  there  by  the  Iloilo  congregation.  He  returned  in 
January  after  having  finished  his  second  year  in  study,  and  later  we 
hope  will  be  sent  back  for  a  third  year  and  ordination,  in  order  that 
he  may  become  the  pastor  of  the  congregation  permanently.  Though 
few  in  number,  the  members  of  the  Chinese  congregation  have  main- 
tained their  allegiance  to  the  Church,  and  have  given  liberally  of  their 
means  to  support  its  work. 

Since  Mr.  Doltz'  departure  on  furlough  in  June,  the  remain- 
ing missionary  has  been  assisted  in  the  care  of  the  American 
work  by  two  of  the  Baptist  brethren,  who  have  each  taken 
service  a  month  at  the  chapel  and  also  helped  at  the  Y.  M.  C.  A. 

The  question  of  union  church  was  discussed  by  the  Baptists  in  con- 
ference a  few  weeks  ago,  but  Secretary  Barbour,  of  Boston,  who  was 
present,  expressed  the  opinion  that  it  would  be  better  to  continue  it 
as  a  strictly  Presbyterian  work,  and  he  felt  sure  that  if  a  suitable  man 
could  be  found  to  take  charge  of  the  work,  the  Baptist  LTnion  would 
support  it  financially. 

Training  classes  with  village  workers  were  held  in  March  and 
October  as  usual.  March  was  devoted  to  teaching  evangelists, 
and  October  was  spent  in  stud3dng  with  the  Sunday-school 
teachers  the  lessons  for  the  ensuing  year.  The  classes  were 
well  attended  and  are  of  great  benefit  to  the  workers  in  the 
villages,  who  find  it  hard  to  study  the  Bible  alone. 

MEDICAL  WORK.— Union  Hospital,  Sabine  Haines  Me- 
morial.— The  medical  work  has  kept  Dr.  Hall  busy  during  the 
year.  It  is  not  only  the  Mission  hospital,  but  also  the  city 
hospital  and  the  hospital  of  the  provinces.  The  difficulty 
has  been  to  convince  the  city  and  province  of  this  in  a  financial 
way,  and  as  yet  we  receive  no  support  from  either  city  or 
province.     Still  it  has  been  liberally  supported  by  the  com- 


PHILIPPINE  ISLANDS— DUMAGUETE.  375 

munity,  which  has  shown  an  ever  increasing  interest  in  its 
maintenance  and  an  admiration  for  its  work. 

The  hospital  was  built  with  two  private  wards,  but  in  order  to  meet 
the  needs  and  also  to  meet  ctirrcnt  expenses,  it  has  been  necessary  to 
utilize  some  of  the  rooms  intended  for  other  purposes  and  at  present 
we  are  using  five  rooms  for  private  patients,  and  even  then  we  have  had 
to  turn  some  away.  Our  free  wards  are  overcrowded,  and  should 
have  more  room  as  soon  as  possible,  for  there  is  no  chance  to  isolate 
patients  and  all  have  to  be  put  in  together  irrespective  of  their  disease. 
We  urgently  need  more  doiTnitory  space  for  staff  and  more  wards  for 
both  private  and  free  patients,  as  well  as  washhouse  and  other  con- 
v'eniences. 

Improvement  in  the  financial  condition  of  the  hospital  has  been  most 
gratifying  and  we  are  glad  to  report  a  reduction  in  the  deficit  of  over 
3,500  pesos,  and  the  rest  should  be  wiped  out  in  the  near  future.  Of 
this  amount  2,228  pesos  have  been  contributed.  In  1907  the  receipts 
were  over  10,000  pesos  and  the  expenses  13,800  pesos.  This  year  the 
receipts  thus  far  have  amounted  to  over  14,900  pesos  and  the  expenses 
nearly  reduced  to  10,000  pesos.  We  are  grateful  to  God  who  has 
answered  our  prayers  and  sent  us  help  in  this  as  in  all  other  respects, 
and  we  pray  that  the  remaining  deficit  may  be  cleared  off  before  the 
end  of  the  present  fiscal  year,  so  that  we  may  begin  to  plan  for  some 
much  needed  additions  to  our  plant. 

We  have  had  the  assistance  at  various  times  of  Col.  L.  A.  LeGarde, 
Chief  Surgeon  U.  S.  A.  at  Iloilo;  Drs.  Bi-uns  and  Richardson,  Post 
Army  surgeons;  Dr.  Carson,  of  the  railway  hospital,  and  Dr.  Carter, 
of  our  own  Mission,  who  kindly  took  charge  during  the  month  of 
November,  in  order  that  Dr.  Hall  might  make  a  visit  to  the  congre- 
gations in  the  provinces. 

The  union  with  the  Baptists,  proposed  last  year,  has  been 
happily  consummated.  The  Baptist  Missionary  Union  has 
purchased  a  half  interest  in  the  hospital  and  has  assigned  Dr. 
Thomas  as  associate  with  our  Presbyterian  Dr.  Hall.  Statis- 
tics for  the  year  are  as  follows:  In-patients:  private  ward 
cases,  48;  semi-private  cases,  74;  free  ward  cases,  251;  total, 
373  ;  aggregate  in  days,  7,624.  Out-patients:  number  treated, 
2,200;  total  number  of  treatments,  5,542;  total  treatments, 
In-patients  and  out-patients,  13,066. 

The  Filipino  nurses  have  done  good  work,  but  we  must  look 
for  students  with  greater  capacity  bet 0.2  we  can  send  out 
.-urses  capable  of  really  efficient  work.  Those  we  have  do 
good  nursing  under  supervision,  but  it  must  be  constant  and 
careful. 

Scarce  a  patient  who  is  in  the  hospital  for  any  length  of 
time  but  becomes  interested  in  reading  the  Gospel,  and  many 
voluntarily  attend  morning  prayers  and  ask  permission  to 
attend  services  in  the  chapel  when  able  to  go.  Several  have 
joined  the  Church  as  a  result  of  their  stay  in  the  hospital. 

EUMAGUETE  STATION. 

Dr.  and  Mrs.  Langheim  returned  from  furlough  Ma)^  19. 
The  medical  work  of  the  Station  for  the  preceding  five  months 


3?6  PHILIPPINE  ISLANDS— DUMAGUETE. 

of  the  year  was  in  charge  of  Dr.  Carter,  and  a  large  number 
of  patients  were  treated  by  him,  though  exact  figures  are  not 
at  hand.  After  Dr.  Langheim's  arrival,  3,515  were  treated 
at  the  hospital  and  dispensary,  217  visits  were  made  to  the 
homes  of  patients  and  400  were  vaccinated. 

Mrs.  Langheini  spends  several  mornings  each  week  at  the  hospital 
and  attends  to  many  of  the  surgical  cases. 

Five  hundred  portions  of  Scripture  have  been  disposed  of  at  the 
dispensary.  The  efhciency  of  the  hospital  has  been  increased  during 
the  year  by  the  addition  of  several  hundred  dollars  worth  of  supplies 
and  equipment,  made  possible  by  increased  receipts  and  the  generosity 
of  friends. 

A  few  trips  away  from  the  Station  were  made,  including  the  visiting 
of  the  congregation  at  Guijulugan,  eighty  miles  north. 

In  addition  to  the  medical  work,  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Langheim 
have  assisted  with  the  Institute  work.  Since  the  opening  of 
the  school  year,  June  i,  Mrs.  Langheim  has  had  three  regular 
classes.  Dr.  Langheim  has  four  classes  at  the  college,  a  class 
of  twenty-five  students  in  the  Sunday-school,  and  is  Station 
Treasurer. 

EDUCATIONAL  WORK.— Silliman  Institute  (Dr.  Hib- 
bard.  President). — The  enrollment  has  increased  to  130  inter- 
nos  and  204  externos,  while  54  entered  and  for  various  reasons 
have  left  the  school  for  the  present,  making  a  total  enrollment 
of  388.  This  will  probably  increase  to  400  by  the  end  of  the 
year. 

Twenty-nine  students  have  publicly  confessed  Christ  and 
have  been  baptized  during  the  year;  among  these  are  some 
of  the  brightest  and  best  boys.  A  few  of  the  new  converts 
are  looking  forward  to  the  ministry.  About  thirty  in  all  are 
expecting  to  become  ministers  of  the  Gospel. 

The  school  is  becoming  more  popular  with  the  people  and 
prospects  of  larger  growth  and  influence  are  bright.  The  port 
of  Dumaguete  has  rapidly  increased  in  importance  during 
the  last  four  years.  There  is  seldom  a  day  when  less  than  two 
steamers  make  it  a  port  of  call,  and  more  and  more  travelers 
are  stopping  to  see  the  school  and  become  acquainted  with  its 
workings. 

The  new  addition  is  being  pushed  to  completion  and  students  were 
expected  to  be  in  it  by  the  beginning  of  the  school  year  in  June.  Archi- 
tecturally, through  the  efforts  of  Mr.  Glunz,  the  addition  will  transform 
the  building  into  one  that  will  be  a  credit  to  the  city  and  the  Mission. 
The  shop  is  done  and  is  being  used  to  its  fullest  capacity,  though  the 
number  of  students  compelled  us  to  use  one  of  the  rooms  as  a  dormitory. 

Mr.  Mclntyre's  furlough  forced  the  school  to  ask  the  Mission  for 
aid,  and  Cebu  Station  shouldered  the  burden  and  allowed  Mr.  and  Mrs. 
Dunlap  to  come  to  Dumaguete,  where  they  have  labored  most  faith- 


PHILIPPINE  ISIJ^NDS— DUMAGUETE.  377 

fully  and  successfully.  Under  the  direction  of  Mr.  Dunlap  a  great 
interest  in  athletic.?  has  been  aroused,  to  the  advantage  of  the  school 
and  the  moral  and  physical  benefit  of  the  students. 

Our  course  of  study  will  tneet  the  requii-emcnts  for  the  degree  of 
Bachelor  of  Arts,  which  will  probably  be  demanded  by  the  Govern- 
ment. 

The  support  given  by  the  entire  Mission  has  contriljuted  largely  to 
the  attendance  from  other  provinces  and  the  popularity  of  the  school. 


Industrial  Dc}Kntineut. — During  the  absence  on  furlough  of 
Mr.  and  Mrs.  Glunz  the  w^ork  fell  more  on  the  students,  who 
stood  the  test  well. 

They  did  considerable  work,  finishing  the  workshop,  getting  out 
material  for  the  shell  windows  of  the  new  building,  constructing  a 
Station  launch,  and  making  articles  for  outside  parties.  Practically 
all  the  machine  work  and  a  large  part  of  the  work  on  the  new  building 
are  being  done  by  them.  Two  of  them  have  left  school  for  this  term 
and  are  regularly  employed  as  overseers,  while  five  or  six  others  are 
employed  two  or  three  days  a  week;  these  arc  keeping  up  with  their 
classes. 

A  large  part  of  the  demand  by  the  Industrial  Department  could 
not  be  supplied  owing  to  building  operations.  An  idea  of  what  the 
students  and  eciuipment  are  earning  iriay  be  secured  when  we  state 
that  we  are  putting  up  a  building  of  reinforced  concrete  and  first  and 
second  group  wood  for  the  price  that  Manila  contractors  would  ask 
for  a  building  for  third  and  fourth  group  woods. 

EVANGELISTIC  WORK.— Preaching  outside  of  Duma 
guete  has  been  carried  on  by  Mr.  Restituto  Malahay  in  Duma- 
guete  and  Guijulugan,  Mr.  Enrique  Malahay  in  Guijulugan, 
and  Mr.  Angel  Sotto  in  Amblan.  In  addition  students  have 
carried  on  street  services  in  the  neighboring  towns.  Sibulan, 
Dauin,  Bacong  and  Lizuriga  have  thus  been  reached.  During 
the  school  year  Mr.  Dunlap  went  to  Dauin  and  baptized  three 
as  the  result  of  this  work  and  found  some  others  interested. 
There  are  people  waiting  for  baptism  in  several  towns  where 
the  missionary  has  not  been  able  to  go. 

In  March,  Mr.  Mclntyrc  visited  Guijulugan  and  baptized  those  who 
were  waiting  there,  while  in  November,  Dr.  Langheim  and  Dr.  Hib- 
bard  spent  two  daj's  there,  healing  the  sick  and  baptizing  those  who 
were  ready.  The  Church  there  has  been  troubled  by  vSpiritualism 
and  questions  concerning  the  Divinity  of  Christ,  so  much  so  that  the 
congregation  was  threatened  with  disruption.  The  trouble  is  now 
passing  away  and  the  majority  are  united  in  finishing  their  chapel. 

The  island  of  Siquijor  is  still  asking  for  an  evangelist,  and 
the  students  who  have  gone  there  have  opened  the  way  for  a 
good  work.  There  have  been  144  baptisms  during  the  year, 
and  more  are  waiting  at  Amblan  and  at  Himalalud,  when  a 
missionary  can  go, 


378  PHILIPPINE  ISLANDS— CEBU. 

CEBU  STATION. 

This  year  followed  one  of  unusual  increase  in  membership, 
several  new  and  large  congregations  having  come  into  exist- 
ence, and  many  and  severe  persecutions  being  endured. 

Dr.  Graham  had  his  hands  full  treating  patients  in  the  dispensary 
at  home,  but  during  the  furlough  of  Mr.  jansen  cheerfully  took  over 
both  the  English  work  and  the  charge  of  the  Filipino  Church  in  Cebu 
City  for  a  number  of  months.  Mrs.  Graham,  in  addition  to  assisting 
the  doctor  at  the  dispensary  and  doing  evangelistic  work  among  the 
patients,  did  valuable  translating  of  Sunday-school  lessons,  Christian 
Endeavor  topics,  timely  tracts  and  hymns. 

Mr.  and  Mrs.  Dimlap  were  asked,  at  the  beginning  of  the  year, 
to  help  out  in  Silliman  Institute,  where  they  served  on  till  the  end  of 
the  school  term;  after  which  they  returned,  and  for  two  months  took 
part  of  the  work  at  Cebu;  then  they  once  inore  were  required  at  Silli- 
man Institute,  where  they  continued  to  ser\'e  throughout  the  remain- 
der of  the  year. 

Mr.  and  Mrs.  Jansen,  on  returning  from  furlough,  made  a 
long  itinerating  trip  to  nearly  all  the  congregations  connected 
with  the  Station.     Mr.  Jansen  writes: 

We  had  for  years  longed  to  be  set  free  from  the  English  and  Philip- 
pine city  work  of  Cebu,  that  we  might  devote  some  time  to  Bible  study 
among  the  congregations  at  large.  We  visited  the  following  congre- 
gations: Oslob,  Santander,  Badian,  Dumanjtig,  Cebu,  Opon  and 
Compostella  in  Province  of  Cebu,  and  Tacbilaren,  Matabao,  Pampang, 
Getafe,  Ubag  and  Monoc  in  Bohol.  We  spent  from  six  weeks  to  two 
weeks  in  each  place,  visiting  some  of  the  places  different  times  during 
the  year.  Aside  from  this,  we  did  opening  evangelistic  work  in  con- 
nection with  Pastor  Alorizo  in  two  near  towns  on  the  west  coast  of 
Cebu,  Alcataca  and  Moalboal. 

Our  principal  efforts  this  year  have  been  to  strengthen  and  deepen 
the  work,  and  it  is  on  that  account  there  are  a  less  number  of  new 
members  recorded  this  year.  As  it  is  we  have  received  several  hun- 
dred, and  if  we  had  been  free  to  engage  in  more  evangelistic  work  we 
would  have  had  hundreds  more  to  report.  But  the  seed  sown  this  year 
will  bear  abundant  harvest  in  the  coming  year;  of  that  we  are  confi- 
dent. 

Three  new  places  have  been  opened  in  the  Province  of 
Cebu,  and  Pastor  Ricardo  Alonzo  has  done  faithful  work  at 
them.  Two  new  out-stations  have  been  opened  in  Bohol, 
but  the  people  have  not  yet  shown  much  interest  in  them. 

The  launch  "El  Heraldo  Cristiano,"  generously  donated 
by  The  Christian  Herald  of  New  York,  has  alread}^  proved  of 
inestimable  blessing.  It  has  far  exceeded  expectations  and 
has  taken  an  indispensable  place  in  the  Station  equipment. 

Mr.  Dunlap  made  two  trips  to  Opon  for  baptisms  and  con- 
ducted the  Lord's  Supper.  A  week's  itineration  in  the  moun- 
tains followed,  during  which  he  visited  the  congregations  and 
conducted  services  with  them.  The  distance  covered  was 
about  seventy  miles.     Fourteen  services  were  held,  including 


PHILIPPINE  ISLANDS— LAGUNA.  379 

baptisms  and   communion.     Two  English  couples  were  mar- 
ried. 

In  July  Mr.  Jansen  and  Mr.  Dunlap  started  for  another  itineration, 
going  part  way  on  the  launch.  Services  were  held  at  Santandar, 
and  then  Mr.  Jansen  took  Mr.  Dunlap  to  the  west  coast  of  Cebu  and 
went  on.  Mr.  Dunlap  secured  a  guide  and  men  for  carrying  his  lug- 
gage. For  over  twenty-four  hours  we  waded  water  up  to  our  waists, 
and  had  the  deHghtful  sensation  of  being  lost  about  lo  o'clock  at  night. 
As  you  see,  I  was  found,  and  God  gave  nie  a  blessed  time  among  those 
simple-minded  people.  Many  of  them  know  Christ.  Their  posses- 
sions arc  limited,  but  they  have  the  gift  of  the  Spirit  of  God  in  their 
hearts. 

The  trip  was  one  of  about  130  miles  on  the  launch  and  seventy  miles 
on  foot. 

In  June  we  had  a  conference  of  native  workers  and  church  officials, 
in  which  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Graham,  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Dunlap  and  Mr.  and  Mrs. 
Jansen  took  part.  It  was  a  blessed  season  and  served  to  knit  our 
hearts  and  unite  our  efforts  as  never  before.  On  that  occasion,  as  on 
many  others,  we  were  also  privileged  to  listen  to  the  wise  counsel  and 
loving  exhortations  of  Mr.  Joseph  Holmes,  the  father  of  Mrs.  Graham, 
who  in  two  years'  stay  with  his  son  and  daughter  impressed  all  with 
the  reality  of  God's  abiding  peace.  The  Lord  called  him  to  higher 
service  October  18,  and  we  mourn  his  loss. 

The  number  of  pay  students  from  Cebu  in  Silliman  Institute 
at  Dumaguete  has  increased  and  reports  from  them  have  been 
excellent.  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Jansen  have  also  accepted  respon- 
sibility for  three  orphaned  children,  whose  care  is  to  them  a 
labor  of  love. 

The  question  of  a  church  building  becomes  pressing  this  year  as  our 
present  chapel,  at  the  expiration  of  our  contract  this  year,  belongs  to 
the  owner  of  the  land  on  which  it  is  built  and  which  was  given  us  rent 
free  for  five  years.  The  contributions  of  Cebu  promise  a  more  suitable 
building  for  the  rapidly  growing  metropolis  of  the  Visayan  Islands. 
It  ought  to  be  a  building  suitable  for  the  English-speaking  people  to 
worship  in  as  well  as  the  Filipinos. 

Sunday  services  in  English  have  been  held  during  the  entire 
year,  Dr.  Graham,  Mr.  Dunlap  and  Mr.  Jansen  each  having 
charge  at  various  times. 

LA.GUNA  STATION. 

Mr.  and  Mrs.  Hamilton  write  they  have  reason  to  thank 
God  for  the  blessings  of  the  year.  While  nothing  remarkable 
has  occurred,  the  progress  has  been  such  as  to  bring  gratifi- 
cation. Being  their  first  year  on  the  field,  it  has  naturally 
been  one  of  language  stud}^  and  of  adjustment  and  forming 
acquaintance  with  the  people,  the  field,  and  the  work. 

English  services  have  been  conducted  in  the  native  chapel 
every  two  weeks,  which  is  usually  attended  by  the  dozen 
Americans  in  Pagsanhan,  as  well  as  a  few  from  Santa  Cruz. 
These  services  have  been  much  appreciated  and  have  grown 
in  interest  from  the  first. 


380  PHILIPPINE  ISLANDS— LEYTE. 

Five  itineration  trips  have  been  made,  the  first  two  in  company 
with  Pastor  Zarco  and  Dr.  Rodgers  respectively  of  Manila.  Mr.  and 
Mrs.  Magill  with  Dr.  Rodgers  cared  for  Laguna's  work  after  the  depart- 
ure of  Mr.  Snook.  To  the  service  of  these  friends,  who  shotildered 
Laguna's  work  in  connection  with  their  own,  is  due  the  satisfactory 
condition  of  the  field  at  the  time  of  the  arrival  of  the  new  missionaries. 

Mr.  Hamilton  assisted  at  Ellinwood  Bible  Seminary  during 
July  and  September,  taking  some  classes  in  English.  Mrs. 
Hamilton  gave  a  series  of  lectures  at  Ellinv^ood  School  for 
Girls,  besides  teaching  a  class  in  music  in  the  Bible  Seminary. 
Mr.  Hamilton  has  prepared  studies  on  the  Christian  Endeavor 
topics  published  in  the  Ang  Bagong  Araiv  for  the  last  three 
months  of  the  year. 

A  helpful  institute  for  the  native  evangelists  and  helpers 
was  conducted  by  Mr.  Wright  in  January,  which  was  attended 
by  representatives  of  almost  all  the  churches  of  the  province. 
Another  institute  was  held  in  March  for  ten  days. 

At  the  time  of  the  Teachers'  Institute  of  Laguna  Province  in  Pag- 
sanhan,  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Hamilton  opened  their  home  Thursday  nights 
for  social  evenings  to  the  native  school-teachers,  and  the  social  touch 
with  them  thus  gained  had  good  effect. 

At  a  meeting  of  Manila  Presbytery,  held  in  connection  with  the 
institute  last  January,  ten  men  were  given  temporary  license  as  evan- 
gelists after  due  examination  by  Presbytery. 

A  beginning  has  been  made  in  self-support  and  an  advance 
is  expected  during  the  coming  year.  The  visit  of  the  repre- 
sentatives of  the  Presbytery's  Home  Mission  Committee  has 
in  several  places  aroused  a  sense  of  their  duty  in  this  regard. 
All  the  congregations  are  learning  to  pay  for  literature,  sup- 
plies fop  the  Sunday-school,  etc.,  instead  of  looking  for  these 
things  as  gifts  from  the  Mission. 

At  two  places  where  services  had  been  held  for  some  time,  the 
congregations  have  been  formally  organized  with  officers.  Four  new 
chapels  have  been  built,  and  several  congregations  expect  to  build 
during  the  coming  year.  Several  new  preaching  places  have  been 
opened  up,  and  a  number  of  places  are  waiting  for  the  coming  of  the 
missionary  and  the  evangelist;  but  as  yet  we  have  not  had  men  or 
means  to  enter  these  open  doors. 

One  hundred  and  three  new  members  have  been  baptized  and  re- 
ceived into  the  churches. 

Mrs.  Hamilton,  who  is  a  physician,  has  opened  a  dispensary 
and,  amid  many  interruptions  from  language  study,  home 
duties  and  some  lectures  at  Ellinwood  School  for  Girls  in 
Manila,  she  managed  to  treat  768  patients  at  the  dispensary 
and  to  make  600  visits  in  homes,  a  total  of  1,368  patients  for 
the  year. 

LEYTE  STATION. 

Never  before  has  the  work  been  so  encouraging  as  it  is  at 
this  time;  never  has  the  interest  been  so  manifest  as  to-day. 


MlLli'l'INE  ISLANDS— LEYTE.  381 

Better  days  seem  to  be  in  store,  for  the  field  is  ripening  unto 
harvest  and  we  are  beginning  to  garner  in  the  grain.  The 
headquarters  of  the  Leyte  field  were  at  Baybay  a  year  ago, 
but  the  city  of  Maasin  was  found  to  be  a  better  centre,  and  the 
Station  centre  was  therefore  removed  to  Maasin  on  the  28th 
of  April.  To  the  great  joy  of  Mr.  Rath,  who  had  been  the 
solitary  missionary  on  the  whole  island,  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Carter 
were  added  to  the  Station  the  20th  of  May.  They  were 
welcomed  by  the  members  of  our  church  and  the  friends  of 
Maasin  in  the  missionaries'  rented  house  and  a  dinner  was 
served,  after  which  some  speeches  were  made,  the  Presidente 
of  the  town  giving  the  first  one.  The  welcome  was  sincere 
and  everyone  enjoyed  the  occasion.  That  the  people  needed 
a  physician  and  wanted  one  was  soon  demonstrated  by  the 
fact  that  even  before  the  doctor  was  able  to  get  his  trunks 
unpacked  patients  began  to  arrive. 


Tacloban.- — Since  we  have  removed  Station  headquarters  to  Maasin, 
it  has  been  difficult  to  continue  the  meetings  at  Tacloban,  because  of 
its  inaccessibility  from  the  south  and  the  lack  of  a  suitable  Filipino 
helper  to  carry  on  the  work.  No  one  of  our  members  there  seemed  able 
to  conduct  meetings. 

Baybay. — The  work  here  is  not  encouraging.  There  seem  to  be  a 
number  who  are  inclined  to  Protestantism,  but  they  have  not  the 
strength  of  their  convictions.  The  street  meetings  when  held  are 
always  well  attended,  but  the  attendance  in  the  chapel  is  poor.  Until 
recently  there  was  no  burial  place  in  the  town  where  Protestants  could 
be  buried;  but  this  difficulty  no  longer  obtains,  since  the  Council 
has  granted  permission  to  bury  in  the  municipal  cemetery. 

Malipog  and  Consolacion. — In  the  town  of  Malipog,  four  Filipinos 
were  recently  baptized.  There  are  other  believers  who  are  not  yet 
ready  for  church  membership. 

Consolacion,  a  municipality  on  the  northern  end  of  the  Malipog 
Bay,  has  shown  great  signs  of  interest  in  the  Gospel  and  it  is  our  inten- 
tion to  push  the  work  here  after  the  rainy  season. 

Maasin  is  by  far  the  most  flourishing  town  we  have,  perhaps  be- 
cause our  work  is  centred  here.  The  church  services  are  well  attended, 
and  the  members  take  an  interest  in  the  meetings.  The  attendance 
of  the  women  has  increased  since  the  coming  of  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Carter, 
largely  due  to  the  many  friends  which  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Carter  have  won 
for  us  by  their  work.  Mrs.  Carter  has  a  fine  Sunday-school  in  her 
home.  Dr.  Carter  conducts  a  Sunday-school  class  in  English  for  those 
who  understand  it.  Two  other  classes  are  held  in  the  Visayan  lan- 
guage. The  Christmas  entertainment  drew  a  large  crowd  of  people, 
who  were  curious  to  see  how  Protestants  celebrated  the  birth  of  Christ. 
Some  of  them  are  still  attending  the  meetings. 

Macrohon,  which  is  to  become  a  municipality  the  first  of  the  year, 
is  very  open  to  the  Gospel,  The  street  meetings  are  gratifying  and  we 
are  anticipating  a  large  addition  to  our  membership  from  this  town. 

Another  thing  which  has  contributed  to  the  spreading  of 
the  Gospel  is  the  New  Testament  in  Visayan,  for  which  we 
have  waited  so  long.  In  two  months  the  Station  placed  300 
copies  in  the  hands  of  the  Filipinos.     The  fact  that  these  were 


382  PHILIPPINE  ISLANDS— ALB  AY. 

bought  shows  desire  for  the  truth.  Thousands  of  tracts  and 
1,500  selected  portions  of  the  Bible  in  Visayan  have  also  been 
distributed.  God  will  surely  give  the  increase  this  coming 
year. 

Thirty  were  received  into  the  church  during  the  year,  of 
whom  twenty-two  were  in  Maasin,  one  was  received  at  Bay- 
bay,  four  in  Malitbog  and  three  in  Balod,  a  barrio  of  Carigara. 
Five  children  were  baptized.  We  could  have  made  the  list 
larger,  but  we  preferred  to  wait  until  the  believers  were  more 
firmly  grounded.  Our  great  need  is  evangelists.  Our  only 
hope  seems  to  be  the  three  students  that  we  have  in  training 
in  Silliman  Institute. 

Dr.  Carter  had  charge  of  the  medical  work  at  Dumaguete 
for  four  and  a  half  months  during  the  furlough  of  Dr.  Lang- 
heim.  While  there  he  treated  1,626  patients.  After  remov- 
ing to  Maasin,  May  20,  he  treated  2,084  patients,  making  a 
total  of  3,710  for  the  year.  Receipts  from  patients  in  Maasin 
were  312  pesos.  This  work,  with  necessary  language  study, 
kept  him  busy.  All  general  anaesthetics  were  given  by  Mrs. 
Carter,  and  both  she  and  Mr.  Rath  helped  in  the  dispensary 
and  hospital  in  many  ways.  The  illness  of  Mrs.  Carter  caused 
much  anxiety  for  a  time,  but  she  has  fully  recovered. 

ALBAY  STATION. 

Mr.  and  Mrs.  Brown  were  absent  on  furlough  eight  months 
of  the  year.  On  their  return  they  were  rejoiced  to  find 
evidences  of  the  fidelity  which  the  Filipino  Christians  had 
manifested  during  their  absence. 

To  the  best  of  our  knowledge,  not  one  person  proved  recreant  as 
a  member  of  our  church.  It  has  been  demonstrated  that  the  work  is 
of  God,  and  that  it  is  not  out  of  the  novelty  of  new  doctrines  but  from 
deep  convictions  that  these  people  follow  Christ 

We  do  not  forget  to  thank  those  of  Manila  Station  who  during  our 
absence  sacrificed  their  convenience  to  look  after  our  field.  The  people 
were  greatly  edified  by  the  helpful  visits  of  Pastor  Zarco  and  Dr. 
Rodgers  and  speak  of  the  visits  of  these  brethren  with  keen  appre- 
ciation. 

New  Buildings  Erected  in  the  Province  Last  Year. — Three 
new  chapels  were  built  during  the  year  and  another  is  in 
course  of  erection.  One  of  these  was  the  rebuilding  of  a  house 
that  had  been  burned  down  by  enemies  of  our  work.  At 
the  second,  the  people  decided  that  the  old  house  of  worship 
was  not  fitting  and  they  built  a  better  one  at  their  own  insti- 
gation. The  third  edifice  Mr.  Brown  dedicated  before  his 
departure  for  Mission  meeting.  It  was  erected  in  the  city  of 
Guinobatan,  where  there  was  formerly  great  opposition. 
Now  we  have  a  congregation  of  over  150.     They  built  this 


PHILIPPINE  ISLANDS— ALBA Y.  383 

neat  church  at  their  own  expense  without  outside  help.     This 
church  is  full  of  earnest  workers. 

One  bright  young  lad  of  twenty  walks  to  Albay  every  Saturday 
afternoon,  a  distance  of  thirteen  miles,  to  study  Bible  lessons  with 
Mr.  Brown,  so  that  he  may  impart  to  others  in  the  ensuing  week  the 
things  he  learns  in  the  class.  Lately  he  has  been  bringing  others 
with  him.  He  complains  that  two  hours  at  a  stretch  is  not  long  enough 
for  him;  he  wants  the  whole  afternoon. 

This  church  raises  money  for  its  own  supplies  and  the  local  preacher 
never  thinks  of  asking  any  aid  froin  the  Mission.  We  are  proud  of  the 
interest  and  the  self-sacrihce  our  two  regular  helpers  and  our  occasional 
assistant  take  in  the  work.  When  we  have  trips  for  them  to  make 
they  almost  never  put  in  a  bill  for  expenses,  walking  sometimes  fifty 
miles  to  save  money  for  the  Station. 

Since  our  return  the  congregations  have  elected  new  officials,  and 
in  every  case  with  new  life  and  new  leaders  there  has  been  a  renewal 
of  interest  and  enthusiasm.  We  are  endeavoring  to  place  responsibility 
for  services  and  direction  of  affairs  in  the  hands  of  the  natives,  and 
expect  that  they  give  a  reason  for  spiritual  condition  and  lack  of 
results. 

One  plan  we  have  inaugurated  for  the  different  congregations  and 
workers  is  a  system  of  monthly  reports.  We  send  out  a  series  of 
questions,  which  church  officials  and  workers  are  expected  to  answer. 
In  this  way  we  hope  to  keep  tab  on  what  they  are  doing,  what  they 
need  and  have  hint  at  what  to  suggest  to  them.  Also  by  comparing 
one  congregation  with  another,  we  hope  to  spur  the  backward  on  to 
greater  endeavor. 

New  work  has  been  opened  in  Don  Sol,  Nueva  Caceras  and 
Calabanga,  the  two  latter  in  the  province  of  Ambos  Camerines, 
where  we  have  forty  inquirers  and  the  work  seems  most 
encouraging. 

In  the  same  district,  we  have  preached  and  worked  to  some  extent 
in  Iriga,  where  we  have  fifteen  believers.  Some  have  been  waiting 
for  some  time  to  be  received,  but  it  seemed  unwise  to  form  a  regular 
congregation  until  we  had  a  few  more  to  adhere,  thus  being  a  mutual 
help  to  each  other. 

We  also  have  a  good  opening  in  the  town  of  Camalig,  which  we  intend 
to  take  advantage  of  immediately.  Here  the  Presidente  and  his  wife 
are  deeply  interested  and  promise  to  build  a  chapel  at  their  own 
expense.     We  have  here  some  fifteen  waiting  to  be  received. 

We  hope  for  good  results  in  the  Island  of  Raporapo,  where  for  two 
weeks  Rev.  Pablo  Dia  worked.  Many  were  intensely  interested  and 
manifested  great  desire  to  receive  Christ.  But  we  were  unable  to 
reach  them  now. 

There  is  not  the  wholesale  entering  of  the  people  to  listen 
to  the  Gospel  as  in  some  other  centres.  Being  away  from 
Manila,  people  are  more  dominated  by  the  priest  than  in  the 
provinces  adjacent  to  ports  of  entry.  However,  Mr.  Brown 
hears  constantly  of  places  where  people  are  interested  and 
ready  to  learn  more  of  the  Gospel.  Reports  of  this  kind  are 
now  coming  in  from  Sorsogon,  where  we  have  done  no  work. 

We  report  a  numerical  increase  of  109  the  past  year,  but  real  progress

has  been  made  which  is  not  embraced  in  mere  figures.  We  have 
in  our  province  ten  regular  preaching  places,  which  we  have  visited 
five  or  six  times  in  the  past  four  months.  With  the  aid  of  the  motor- 
cycle, I  intend  to  establish  weekly  instruction  classes  in  all  these 
places  and  go  regularly  to  break  the  Bread  of  Life  to  them.  Besides 
these  established  places,  we  have  six  others  where  we  preach  from  time 
to  time,  and  which  will  ultimately  be  made  into  permanent  stations. 

Self-support. — The  churches  provide  their  own  expenses. 
They  are  not  able  to  hire  evangehsts  as  yet,  but  one  church 
pays  one-fourth  of  the  salary  of  their  district  evangelist,  and 
all  the  churches  buy  their  own  supplies,  pay  for  leases  where 
their  chapels  are  built,  and  pay  for  running  expenses. 

Our  members  are  not  wealthy,  but  twice  every  Sunday  they  religi- 
ously give  their  penny,  and  I  know  that  even  this  much  means  a  large 
sacrifice  for  most  of  them.  It  is  the  case  of  the  widow's  mite.  Fur- 
thermore, in  some  of  the  congregations  there  is  a  monthly  contribution 
other  than  the  regular  offering.  This  is  used  to  meet  special  needs 
as  they  arise. 

Mr.  Brown  traveled  the  last  four  months  about  800  miles. 
This  could  not  have  been  done  except  through  the  aid  of  the 
motorcycle  which  Milwaukee  friends  kindly  gave. 

All  our  congregations  celebrated  Christmas,  following  a  special 
program  prepared  by  the  missionaries.     Albay  had  a  big  supper. 

One  of  our  mountain  congregations  had  a  special  program  and 
supper  and  invited  all  the  surrounding  villages  to  participate.  The 
people  whom  they  invited  were  not  believers,  but  in  this  way  they 
hoped  to  gain  their  interest  and  friendship.  The  officials  of  the  church 
report  a  splendid  time  and  that  the  plan  succeeded  even  beyond 
their  hopes.  Thus  by  every  means  our  people  are  trying  to  win  some 
to  the  Master.  We  have  a  class  of  fifteen  children  which  meets  every 
Saturday  to  study  the  Life  of  Christ.  This  class  was  a  star  performer 
in  our  Christmas  program. 

American  Work. — Services  for  the  Americans  in  and  near 
Albay  have  been  well  attended  and  the  Americans  take  great 
interest  in  the  work.  Attendance  has  varied  from  50  to  125 
on  special  occasions. 

TAYABAS  STATION. 

Mr.  and  Mrs.  Magill  report  that  the  work  has  made  progress 
and  that  encouragements  have  far  outweighed  discourage- 
ments. 

The  congregation  at  Lucban  has  grown  faster  than  any  other 
congregation  in  the  province.  Here  we  have  a  membership 
of  eighty-one,  seventy-one  of  these  having  been  received  this 
year. 

Some  of  them,  who  once  gambled,  drank  and  kept  fighting  cocks, 
have  left  their  vices  and  are  now  regular  attendants  at  church.  Most 
of  them  are  poor,  uneducated  people,  and  at  first  they  were  very 


PHILIPPINE  ISLANDS— TAYABAS.  385 

backward  about  taking  part  pu])licly  in  our  services.  But  the  Bibk' 
conference  last  Marcli  marked  the  beginning  on  the  part  of  about 
twenty  in  taking  part  in  the  services  b}-  reading,  praying  or  speaking. 
Bible  classes  and  Sunday-school  have  added  to  their  Biblical  know- 
ledge, and  the  Christian  Endeavor  Societ}''  has  been  a  good  training 
school  in  public  expression.  Two  or  three  young  men  have  a  view 
to  the  ministry.  Within  a  few  months  we  hope  to  have  a  chapel  of 
our  own  in  Lucban.  Aljout  700  jiesos  have  been  sent  for  this  purpose, 
and  this,  with  what  we  can  raise  in  Lucban,.  will  build  a  neat  chapel. 

At  Lticban  a  Bible  class  was  conducted  in  March  by  Mr. 
Wright,  Pastor  Estrella,  Miss  Bartholomew,  and  Mr.  and  Mrs. 
Magill.  About  fifty  local  evangelists  and  workers  from  ten 
towns  attended  and  studied  the  Gospel  six  hours  daily  for 
eight  days.  Evangelistic  services  were  held  every  night  with 
large  attendance  and  interest.  Other  smaller  classes  were 
conducted  in  six  other  congregations,  in  two  of  which,  Mauban 
and  Louisiana,  Miss  Bartholomew  rendered  valuable  assist- 
ance. Also  in  our  regular  visitation  of  the  churches,  we 
usually  devote  from  two  to  three  hours  daily  to  Bible  classes, 
besides  the  regular  evening  services. 

Outside  of  Lucban,  we  have  thirteen  churches  and  preach- 
ing places,  most  of  which  are  widely  separated. 

Some  are  reached  by  horse  or  on  foot,  some  may  be  reached  by 
vehicle  or  steamer,  while  others  can  only  be  reached  by  sailboat  or 
canoe.  Most  of  these  have  been  visited  by  your  missionary  and  his 
wife  an  average  of  four  times  a  year.  Sometimes  we  spend  as  inany  as 
ten  days  in  a  town,  while  at  other  times  we  spend  only  three  or  four 
days. 

We  have  spent  150  days  visiting  churches  and  itinerating  (outside 
of  Lucban),  have  journeyed  about  1,600  miles  on  land  and  water, 
traveling  on  foot,  on  horse,  in  caranata,  in  buggy,  on  steamer,  in  sail- 
boat, and  in  canoe.  Besides  our  visitation,  two  evangelists  have 
traveled  separately,  and  have  held  services  somewhere  almost  every 
night  in  the  year.  Our  evangelists  are  Hilarian  Cruz  and  Francisco 
Beltran,  the  latter  a  native  of  Lucban,  whose  life  God  spared  from  all 
but  fatal  sickness  last  Januar3^ 

Mrs.  Magill  accompanied  me  on  most  of  these  trips.  She  held 
Bible  classes  for  women  and  children,  taught  domestic  science  classes 
which  aroused  the  interest  and  friendship  of  many  women.  She 
preached  everywhere  the  principles  of  hygiene  and  the  iinportance  of 
fresh  air,  sunshine,  pure  water,  the  lack  of  which  is  the  direct  or  in- 
direct cause  of  two  of  the  commonest  diseases  in  the  Philippine  Islands, 
viz.,  consumption  and  dysentery. 

She  has  tried  to  teach  the  people  how  to  care  for  the  sick,  of  which 
they  know  so  little,  and  how  to  clothe,  feed  and  care  for  infants,  of 
whom  an  alarming  percentage  die  for  lack  of  proper  care,  and  not  for 
the  lack  of  their  mothers'  love  and  affection. 

We  have  made  a  special  effort  to  give  the  people  the  Word  of  God, 
selling  250  Sunday-school  Quarterlies,  and  giving  to  those  who  were 
deserving.  We  have  disposed  of  500  New  Testaments  in  Spanish, 
2,400  portions  (Piniling  Bagay)  of  Scripture  in  Tagalog,  and  500 
portions  in  Spanish,  all  of  which  were  generously  contributed  by  the 
Bible  House  of  Los  Angeles,  through  the  American  Bible  Society. 
We*  have  also  distributed  about  14,000  Tagalog  tracts  and  papers.

Thus  the  seed  has  been  sown  and  we  believe  that  it  will  not  return 
void. 

During  the  year  Mr.  Magill  officiated  at  eight  weddings 
and  seven  funerals,  baptized  twenty-five  infants  and  175 
adults.  Three  churches  have  been  regularly  constituted 
with  elders  and  deacons  at  Mauban,  Sanguiren  and  Louisiana. 
Seven  men  have  been  granted  local  licenses  to  preach  the 
Gospel. 

New  work  has  been  opened  in  Boac,  Santa  Cruz  (both  of 
which  are  on  the  island  of  Marinduque,  which  has  a  population 
of  50,000),  Lopez,  Unisan,  and  Tayabas  (the  town,  not  the 
province).  Evangelist  Beltran  has  been  stationed  on  Marin- 
duque since  June,  and  has  conducted  services  in  Boac,  Santa 
Cruz,  Gasan  and  various  barrios.  He  has  found  many  inter- 
ested in  the  Gospel.  A  congregation  has  been  organized  in 
Boac  and  money  and  materials  have  been  collected  for  a  new 
chapel. 

At  Santa  Cruz  a  congregation  was  organized  in  September  and  a 
movement  is  on  foot  to  build  a  chapel.  At  Unisan  thirty  are  waiting 
for  baptism,  are  holding  regular  services,  and  arc  building  a  chapel. 
The  congregation  has  been  visited  several  times  by  evangelists. 
Though  they  have  been  persecuted,  yet  they  are  faithful.  Lopez 
has  been  visited  sevei^al  times  by  our  evangelists,  and  a  number, 
including  two  good  councilmen,  are  thoroughly  interested  and  seem 
ready  for  organization.  A  place  of  worship  has  been  secured  and 
regular  services  are  being  condticted  in  the  old  town  of  Tayabas,  the 
former  capital  of  the  province,  which  was  once  noted  for  its  rabid 
Catholicism  and  bitter  anti-American  feeling.  From  the  indications 
and  from  the  large  number  of  people  that  attend  the  services,  and  from 
the  number  of  Bibles  and  hymn  books  that  have  been  bought,  we 
believe  that  a  congregation  will  soon  be  organized. 

Services  have  been  conducted  in  Lucena  three  times  during  the  year 
and  many  have  listened  to  preaching.  Like  the  Athenians  of  old, 
some  mocked,  others  promised  to  hear  us  again,  but  there  may  be 
found  a  Dionysius,  a  Damaris  and  others  with  them.  Lucena  is  the 
most  important  town  in  the  province,  being  the  capital  and  seat  of 
the  High  School,  an  important  port,  the  terminus  of  the  coming 
railroad,  and  a  battalion  post  of  the  Scouts.  It  has  telegraphic  com- 
mttnication  with  the  outside  world.  W.e  hope  to  open  permanent 
work  there  liefore  a  great  while. 

The  following  information  regarding  the  field  of  this  new 
Station  will  be  of  interest:  Tayabas  Province  is  large,  with 
long  distances  and  extended  coast  line.  It  has  high  moun- 
tains and  bad  roads.     The  population  is  214,000. 

It  has  three  natural  divisions,  and  our  work  has  been  providentially 
opened  in  each.  The  first  division  is  "Central  Tayabas,"  including 
the  towns  of  Lvicban  (population  10,227),  Tayabas  (14,740),  Lucena 
(9,375),  Pagbilao  (6,085),  Sariaya  (12.453),  Tiaon  (0,527),  Sampoloc 
(2,482),  a  total  of  64,889,  a  little  less  than  one-third  oi  the  population 
of  the  province.  • 

The  second  division  is  "Marinduque  and  Tayabas  Bay,"  with  the 


PHILIPPINE  ISLANDS— STATISTICS  387 

towns  of  Boac  (22,799),  Santa  Cruz  (16,350),  Gasan  (8,270),  Torijoas 
and  Malanay  (5,980),  all  on  Tayabas  Bay,  a  total  of  82,687. 

The  third  district  is  the  "Pacific  Coast,"  with  Maubaun  (12,021), 
Baler  (4,084),  Polillo  (2,164),  Infanta  (10,283),  Antimonan  (11,203), 
Gumaca  (5,324),  Lopez  (8,549),  Kalawag  (3,185),  Alabat  (5,000),  and 
Guiniangan  (3,870),  a  total  of  66,023.  All  of  the  towns  in  the  second 
and  third  districts  can  be  reached  by  water,  and  all  in  the  first  or 
Central  can  be  reached  by  vehicle. 

Mr.  Magill's  desire  is  to  put  an  evangelist  in  each  of  these 
grand  divisions,  for  time  and  money  are  wasted  in  having  an 
evangeUst  travel  the  long  distances  from  one  district  to 
another.  Each  church  should  maintain  its  own  work  as  far 
as  possible,  but  there  should  be  one  good  evangelist  to  visit 
them  occasionally  and  he  must  help  to  open  up  new  work 
in  each  district. 

Either  of  the  grand  divisions  mentioned  is  a  large  and 
encouraging  field  for  one  missionary,  especially  since  encourag- 
ing work  is  already  started  in  each  of  the  divisions.  The 
Pacific  Coast  is  separated  from  the  other  two  by  high  moun- 
tains, which  are  traversed  by  roads  and  trails  that  are  next  to 
impassable  during  part  of  the  year.  Hence  this  is  a  field  of 
importance  and  bright  prospects  to  itself.

BANGKOK  STATION. 

The  missionaries  write: 

As  we  survey  the  work  of  the  past  year  our  finst  thought  is  one  of 
gratitude  to  God  for  health,  for  God's  blessings  upon  us  through  the 
year,  and  for  the  privilege  of  witnessing  in  this  place. 

EVANGELISTIC  WORK.— Early  in  the  year  Dr.  and  Mrs. 
E.  P.  Dunlap,  with  Dr.  L.  C.  Bulkley,  left  for  an  extended  tour 
in  the  Puket  region,  on  the  Bengal  side  of  the  Malay  Penin- 
sula. Here  the  missionaries  have  always  found  a  welcome, 
and  to-day  we  have  a  band  of  earnest  Christians  who  are 
anxious  to  have  a  Station  among  them.  At  each  visit  Dr. 
and  Mrs.  Dunlap  have  planned  to  spend  several  weeks  among 
them.  Through  Dr.  Bulkley  the  benefits  of  modem  medi-

cine  are  brought  into  their  homes.  Much  good  is  accom- 
plished in  this  way  every  year.  The  missionaries  are  so  well 
liked  that  the  Christians  have  decided  to  build  a  rest-house 
for  them. 

During  the  last  visit  Dr.  E.  P.  Dunlap,  while  visiting  the 
sick,  climbed  into  the  home  of  a  sick  man,  and  while  on  the 
bamboo  ladder  it  broke.  Dr.  Dunlap  falling  and  severely  in- 
juring his  knee.  Painful  weeks  followed,  but  in  spite  of 
his  infirmity  the  good  Doctor  preached  daily  from  his  bed 
to  the  many  sympathizing  native  friends  who  visited  him. 
At  last,  with  the  help  of  crutches,  he  was  able  to  proceed  to 
Penang,  from  whence  he  sailed  for  America  on  the  17th  of 
March.  Kind  friends  received  him  in  New  York  and  carried 
him  to  the  home  of  Dr.  Bulkley's  father,  where  the  knee  was 
reset.  The  injury  is  still  troublesome,  but  Dr.  Dunlap  hopes 
to  be  able  to  return  to  Siam  this  Spring. 

After  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Dunlap's  departure  for  America,  Dr. 
Bulkley  made  an  extended  tour  through  the  interior  of  the 
Malay  Peninsula  and  up  the  coast  to  Chumpon. 

Since  the  arrival  of  Rev.  and  Mrs.  F.  L.  Snyder  from  fur- 
lough, Mr.  Sn^^der  has  made  several  shorty  tours — two  to 
Ayuthia,  one  to  Lopburi,  one  to  Patriew  and  one  to  Paklat. 
A  longer  trip  was  made  to  Patriew  to  visit  a  community  of 
about  a  dozen  old  Christians,  belonging  to  a  church  organized 
by  Dr.  Dean,  of  the  American  Baptist  Mission,  over  thirty 
3'-ears  ago.  It  was  the  first  preaching  service  held  in  that 
Church  for  twelve  years.  Sixteen  people  were  present.  Mr. 
Snyder,  in  compan};  with  Dr.  Bulkley  and  two  Siamese  help- 
ers, made  a  tour  of  three  weeks  to  Bang  Pla  Soi  and  Muang 
Panat,  by  means  of  launches,  ponies  and  on  foot.  At  Bang 
Pla  Soi  they  were  entertained  at  the  home  of  a  Chinese  adher- 
ent whose  house  is  built  upon  piers  about  a  half  mile  from 
shore.  The  sea  breeze  and  cool  nights  were  much  enjoyed. 
The  days  were  spent  in  the  town  in  a  rented  chapel,  where 
preaching  and  dispensary  work  took  up  most  of  the  time. 
Dr.  Bulkley  treated  a  great  many  people  who  came  to  him 
for  medicine.  Nearly  700  tracts  and  portions  of  Scripture 
were  sold.     The  two  helpers  rendered  valuable  service. 

From  Bang  Pla  Soi  the  party  went  to  Ang  Hin  and  then  on 
to  Muang  Panat,  where  they  were  welcomed  by  a  community 
of  twenty  or  more  Christians.  This  field  also  was  worked  by 
Dr.  Dean  nearly  thirty  years  ago.  The  fact  that  there  is  still 
found,  after  these  many  years  of  loneliness,  a  strong  body  of 
Christians  speaks  well  for  Dr.  Dean's  faithful  work.  In  the 
words  of  Mr.  Snyder: 

An  old  man,  Cheen  Toa,  died  early  the  next  morning  after  our 
arrival,  ignorant  of  our  presence.  Three  months  ago,  while  disputing 
with  another  as  to  God's  faithfulness,  when  twitted:  "See  how  the 


392  SIAM— BANGKOK. 

missionaries  have  never  visited  us  these  twenty  years;  surely  God  has 
forgotten  us,"  replied,  "God  never  forgets  His  own.  I  am  now 
seventy  years  of  age.  I  may  never  see  a  missionary  with  my  own  eyes, 
and  yet  I  trust  that  God  will  send  a  missionary  from  Bangkok  to 
officiate  at  my  burial."  I  buried  Cheen  Toa,  and  it  seemed  as  I 
looked  into  his  dead  face  that  I  could  see  a  smile  of  triumph,  for  his 
great  faith  in  God  was  not  in  vain.  This  remark  of  Cheen  Toa  made 
a  profound  impression  upon  the  Christians  and  their  neighbors.  We 
held  an  all-day  service  the  following  Sabbath  and  received  two  new 
members  into  the  church,  placed  five  on  probation  and  baptized  three 
children. 

Mr.  Snyder,  besides  his  touring  work,  has  charge  of  the  Third 
Church  in  Bangkok,  which  took  in  twenty-five  new  members 
during  the  year. 

Chapels. — Services  at  the  Ban  Moh  Chapel  are  conducted 
by  Rev.  and  Mrs.  J.  B.  Dunlap.  Mr.  Dunlap  has  also  charge 
of  the  Second  Church  at  the  Harriet  M.  House  School  for  girls. 
Services  at  the  Conference  Chapel  were  conducted  through- 
out the  year  by  Rev.  W.  G.  McClure  and  Dr.  G.  B.  McFarland. 

During  the  year  the  number  of  Sunday-schools  in  Bangkok 
has  risen  to  eight,  with  an  average  attendance  of  450.  Mrs. 
J.  B.  Dunlap  furnishes  the  different  schools  with  picture  cards 
and  lesson  leaflets. 

Boys'  School. — The  opening  of  the  term  was  preceded 
by  the  Conference  meetings,  in  which  the  school  was  concerned 
in  several  ways.  Most  of  the  Conference  meetings  were  held 
in  the  High  School  hall  and  were  attended  by  the  teachers 
and  many  of  the  pupils.  A  profound  impression  was  made 
upon  all.  The  spiritual  lives  of  the  Christians  were  deepened 
and  several  of  the  non-Christian  pupils  came  to  a  decision  for 
Christ.  Some  of  the  pupils  and  one  teacher  offered  themselves 
for  Christian  work,  and  were  afterward  received  under  the 
care  of  Presbytery  as  candidates  for  the  ministry.  The  Con- 
ference has  had  a  distinct  influence  on  the  spiritual  life  of  the 
school  throughout  the  year. 

This  does  not  mean,  however,  that  there  has  been  an  unusual  turn- 
ing of  pupils  toward  Christianity.  In  fact  it  has  been  a  year  of  great 
spiritual  struggle,  more  noticeable  during  this  teiTn.  During  last 
term  the  boys'  evening  prayer  meeting  was  organized  into  a  College 
Y.  M.  C.  A.  The  present  3^ear  has  been  a  trying  year,  in  a  sense  un- 
fruitful spiritually;  still  we  feel  encouraged  for  the  future,  believing 
that  spiritual  strtiggling  is  better  than  passive  acquiescence,  and  that 
it  gives  the  promise  of  greater  and  better  results. 

The  Sunday-school  has  been  regularly  held  in  the  High 
School  hall.  The  membership  has  consisted  largely  of  board- 
ing pupils  and  others,  the  attendance  averaging  over  100. 
Aside  from  the  teachers  in  the  school.  Miss  Lucy  Dunlap,^ Miss 
Dunlap,  Mr.  King,  Dr.  Walker  and  Dr.  Bulkley  have  given 
assistance. 


SIAM— BANGKOK.  393 

A  prayer  meeting  for  young  Christians  and  inquirers  has  been  held 
each  week  after  the  Sunday-school,  with  an  encouraging  attendance 
and  considerable  interest.  All  the  boys  that  board  at  the  school  are 
required  to  attend  Sunday  afternoon  pi-eaching  services  at  the  Sam- 
pantawong  Memorial  Chapel.  Daily  prayers  in  the  school  chapel 
and  instruction  from  the  Bible  and  other  Christian  books,  together 
with  individual  work  with  the  pupils,  indicate  what  we  are  trying  to 
do  for  the  spiritual  good  of  the  pupils. 

TlTe  total  enrollment  for  the  school  year  was  293,  and  the 
average  monthly  enrollment  235.  The  attendance  during 
the  early  part  of  the  present  school  year  has  been  a  little  less, 
averaging  215.  Several  reasons  can  be  given  to  account  for 
this  smaller  enrollment: 

1.  A  New  Curriculum:  Our  curriculum  was  revised  and  enlarged, 
making  it  conform  more  closely  to  the  Government  code  of  Sia:n,  and 
adding  another  year  of  study  as  a  requisite  to  gradtiation.  A  few 
dropped  out  of  the  higher  classes  on  this  account. 

2.  Higher  Fees:  The  increase  of  expense  of  living  and  the  growing 
cost  of  maintaining  the  school  made  an  increase  in  fees  seem  iinpera- 
tive.  No  objection  was  offered  to  this  increase  by  our  patrons,  but 
no  doubt  it  influenced  a  few  to  drop  out. 

3.  School  Uniform:  The  school,  having  adopted  a  uniform  a  few 
years  ago,  in  accord  with  the  practice  of  other  schools,  fixed  upon  the 
beginning  of  this  year  as  the  time  to  require  all  pupils  to  wear  the  uni- 
form. No  objection  ^^•as  offered  to  this,  but  a  few  pupils  were  slow  to 
provide  themselves  with  the  uniform  and  drojiped  out  when  finally 
pressed  in  the  matter. 

The  loss  from  these  causes  has  been  less,  in  fact,  than  we  feared, 
and  we  have  had  no  reason  to  regret  the  steps  taken.  The  changes 
have  become  imperative  in  order  to  keep  our  school  abreast  of  the 
growing  demand  for  educational  work  and  the  improvement  in  other 
schools. 

The  temporary  arrest  in  growth  has  its  advantages  also.  It  gives 
time  to  consider  economic  questions  relating  to  financial  supporl , 
opportunity  to  plan  for  improvement  in  instruction,  and  in  general 
to  take  our  bearings  and  settle  matters  of  policy  in  our  educational 
work.  The  school  was  outgrowing  its  clothing  in  more  than  one  sense, 
and  while  we  would  like  to  see  a  larger  growth,  it  may  be  questioned 
whether  we  could  do  justice  to  a  larger  school  than  we  now  have  under 
present  conditions. 

Our  teachers,  both  American  and  Siamese,  have  shown  great  inter- 
est in  their  work  and  in  general  have  done  well.  A  course  of  lectures 
by  friends  outside  the  school  has  been  verj^  popular.  Under  Mr. 
Franklin's  skillful  management  the  course  netted  1,054  ticals. 

The  school  is  in  great  need  for  additional  buildings  and  more 
equipment.  Much  growth  in  any  direction  will  be  impossible 
until  we  can  secure  larger  accommodations. 

Girls'  School. — When  school  opened  this  year  we  had 
to  turn  many  applicants  away  for  want  of  room.  Miss  Edlef- 
sen's  loss  as  a  teacher  through  her  marriage  to  Dr.  W.  B.  Toy 
was  very  keenly  felt.  Miss  McCord  and  Miss  Cole,  together 
with  six  Siamese  teachers,  have  carried  the  burden  of  a  work 
that  calls  for  at  least  three  missionaries. 


394  SIAM— BANGKOK.  v 

One  of  our  graduates  was  married  at  the  school  and  a  large  company 
of  friends  attended  the  wedding.  We  are  always  glad  to  have  the 
school  give  a  wedding  such  as  this  to  a  graduate,  as  it  helps  to  empha- 
size the  importance  of  the  home-life  which  we  desire  to  uplift. 

In  November  the  school  joined  with  other  schools  in  the  grand 
reception  given  by  the  Siamese  people  to  the  King  in  honor  of  his 
return  from  Europe.  The  girls,  dressed  in  pink  and  white,  were  proud 
to  be  allowed  to  do  their  little  part  in  this  great  celebration  to  their 
King.  Each  pupil  received  a  silver  medal  bearing  the  portrait  of  His 
Majesty  in  honor  of  the  occasion.  The  beauty  and  novelty  di  this 
demonstration  by  a  loj^al  people  to  their  beloved  King  will  never  be 
forgotten.      Elaborate  preparations  were  made  on  every  hand. 

The  year  has  been  marked  by  heavy  school  work.  The 
normal  work  for  the  teachers,  which  was  begun  last  year, 
has  been  increased.  They  have  had  two  hours  of  lecture  work 
every  day,  for  which  they  are  obhged  to  study  outside  of  school 
time.  This  is  a  decided  step  in  advance,  the  result  of  which 
is  already  telling  in  improved  work. 

As  usual  the  pupils  have  taken  the  Government  examina- 
tions, and  the  teachers  are  preparing  to  take  the  Government 
teachers'  examinations. 

The  two  King's  Daughters'  Circles  have  met  each  month, 
and  a  great  deal  of  interest  was  shown  in  the  meetings  through- 
out the  year. 

Mrs.  J.  B.  Dunlap  has  rendered  valuable  assistance  as 
teacher  of  music,  and  her  enthusiastic  work  has  gone  far  to 
awaken  a  musical  interest  in  the  school. 

The  school  for  boys  has  had  a  successful  year.  The  enroll- 
ment is  94.  Two  Siamese  teachers  give  their  whole  time  to 
the  school,  while  a  third  divides  his  time  between  this  school 
and  the  Christian  High  School.  Mr.  Frankhn  pays  weekly 
visits  of  inspection  to  the  school. 

There  are  three  day-schools  in  different  parts  of  Bangkok 
open  to  boys  and  girls,  and  conducted  by  some  of  our  Chris- 
tian graduates  of  the  Harriet  M.  House  School.  The  com- 
bined enrollment  in  these  schools  is  about  120.  They  are 
doing  a  good  work,  as  they  offer  an  opportunity  to  Christian 
families  to  send  their  children  to  school  at  greatly  reduced 
rates. 

MISSION  PRESS.— The  work  of  the  Press  has  steadily 
continued. 

For  the  American  Bible  Society  we  have  reprinted  four  books, 
totaling  25,000  portions  or  1,630,000  pages.  To  our  own  list  of  tracts 
we  have  added  the  four  Conference  papers  of  last  annual  Conference 
and  "Titus,"  translated  by  Nai  Boon  Serm,  in  memory  of  Miss  Bissell. 
This  is  by  far  the  best  addition  to  our  literature  in  many  years.  An- 
other addition  to  our  helps  for  native  workers  is  a  translation  of  Dr. 
Munhall's  'Manual  for  Christian  Workers,"  made  by  Dr.  J.  A.  Eakin. 
Dr.  George  B.  McFarland  continued  as  editor  of  the  Daybreak  until 


SIAM— BANGKOK.  395 

his  furlough  to  America.     Miss  Cole  very  ably  edited  the  magazine 
during  the  six  months  Dr.  McFarland  was  away  in  America. 

Since  finishing  the  Siamese-Enghsh  Dictionary  for  one  of 
the  masters  in  the  Government  educational  service,  the  Press 
has  done  considerable  other  work  for  the  Royal  Library. 
This  same  man  has  been  translating  old  Siamese  histor\- 
into  English,  and  other  records  of  the  early  intercourse  of 
Western  and  Eastern  nations  as  it  affected  Siam  and  its  near- 
est neighbors. 

The  Press  has  printed  several  papers  from  the  oldest  "Malay 
Annals,"  and  they  are  now  in  the  Royal  Library  in  book  form.  The 
Siamese  history  translation  is  still  in  the  Press.  The  most  modern 
intercourse  of  Siam  with  the  West,  namely,  "Far  from  Home,"  being 
a  series  of  letters  from  His  Majesty  the  King  dtiring  his  late  tour  of 
Europe,  written  to  one  of  his  daughters,  is  now  in  elegant  English  in 
the  Royal  Library.  This  was  printed  at  our  Press.  But  equally  ftr 
more  important  than  these  are  the  "Siam  Penal  Code"  and  the 
"Customs  and  Trade  Regulations,"  both  of  which  our  Press  has 
printed  in  good  shape.  For  our  own  stock  of  tracts  we  have  just 
reprinted  a  new  edition  of  "Peep  of  Day,"  and  at  the  present  time  we 
are  printing  a  new  edition  of  "Siamese  Arithmetic"  for  our  schools. 

The  keen  competition  between  the  other  four  foreign 
Presses  in  Bangkok,  and  the  many  native  and  Chinese  Presses 
in  Bangkok,  makes  the  management  of  our  Mission  Press  on 
self-supporting  lines  no  easy  task.  Hitherto  the  Press  has 
aimed  to  secure  only  the  proceeds  of  sales  from  the  distribu- 
tion of  tracts  and  school  books,  and  not  their  actual  cost 
price,  and  during  this  fiscal  year  it  has  not  asked  or  received 
any  returns  from  the  publication  of  the  Daybreak.  But, 
in  addition  to  new  editions  which  the  Press  has  produced  this 
year,  the  plant  has  been  kept  up  and  slightly  improved  by 
the  addition  of  a  three-feet  cutting  machine,  besides  additional 
Enghsh  and  Siamese  type. 

Go-down. — During  the  year  i  ,268  boxes  have  passed  through 
our  Mission  go-down  and  the  customs,  not  including  local 
purchases,  for  which  we  do  not  have  to  account  to  the  cus- 
toms authorities. 

When  not  touring  Mr.  Snyder  has  given  valuable  assistance.  Since 
the  Opium  Farmer  has  given  up  his  contract  with  the  Government 
and  the  latter  has  taken  over  the  direct  management  of  the  opium 
trafific,  more  stringent  regulations  for  importing  all  drugs,  especially 
those  containing  any  percentage  of  opium  or  spirits,  such  as  essences 
or  tinctures,  have  been  made,  and  Mission  dispensaries  and  hospitals 
are  no  exception.  They  must  all  be  produced  and  examined  at  the 
Custom  House. 

Boon  lit  Memorial  Young  Men's  Institute. — At  last  we  are 
able  to  report  this  building  nearly  finished.  Unexpected 
delays  were  experienced.     A  long  time  elapsed  before  clear 


396  SIAM— BANGKOK. 

title  to  the  site  could  be  secured,  and  of  course  building  opera- 
tions had  to  be  deferred  until  we  had  title.  Then  it  is  not  as 
practicable  to  push  work  in  Siam  as  in  America.  Loss  in 
exchange  diminished  the  amount  of  money  available  and  the 
cost  of  labor  and  materials  rose,  so  that  a  further  sum  is 
needed.  Dr.  E.  P.  Dunlap  has  been  authorized  by  the  Board 
to  raise  this. 

The  Institute  is  planned  after  the  work  of  the  Y.  M.  C.  A. 
movement  in  America,  and  has  for  its  object  the  improve- 
ment of  the  spiritual,  mental,  social,  and  physical  condition 
of  young  men  in  Siam.  A  Board  of  Directors  has  been  ap- 
pointed and  the  officers  of  the  Institute  are:  President,  Dr. 
E.  P.  Dunlap;  Vice-President,  Dr.  George  McFarland; 
Treasurer,  Rev.  J.  B.  Dunlap;  Corresponding  Secretary, 
Nai  Boon  Serm,  and  General  Secretary,  Dr.  Charles  C.  Walker. 

MEDICAL  WORK. — The  opening  of  our  medical  work  in 
Bangkok  has  been  watched  with  considerable  interest. 

The  Missioii  had  no  organized  medical  work  of  any  kind  in  this 
great  centre  until  Dr.  Walker's  arrival  from  Pitsanuloke.  The  first 
to  appreciate  the  presence  of  a  Mission  Doctor  was  our  community  of 
Siamese  Christians.  They  soon  brought  their  sick  to  him.  Soon  the 
Doctor  was  called  into  their  homes  and  in  this  way  many  friendships 
were  made.  Two  hundred  and  thirty-three  visits  were  made  to 
the  homes  of  the  sick,  and  850  visits  were  made  by  patients  to 
the  Doctor's  house.  The  compound  was  kept  filled  by  in-patients 
who  needed  operations  and  treatment.  Over  80  in-patients  were 
received  in  this  way.  These  in-patients  are  the  most  promising  part 
of  our  medical  work.  They  are  receptive  and  open  to  Christian  instruc- 
tion. Each  patient  has  one  or  more  attendants,  making  the  total 
ntimber  under  instruction  about  200.  Out  of  this  number  three 
accepted  Christ  and  two  are  on  probation.  The  work  has  been  self- 
supporting  from  the  start,  and  can  easily  be  kept  so.  The  poor  of 
Bangkok,  of  which  there  are  a  great  many,  as  well  as  the  rich  have 
.sought  the  benefits  of  our  medical  work. 

And  now,  to  crown  all.  His  Excellency  Phya  Pipat  Kosa, 
Vice-Minister  of  the  Department  of  Foreign  Affairs,  of  his 
own  accord  offered  a  row  of  tenement  houses,  fitted  up,  rent 
free,  for  the  use  of  a  hospital.  This  splendid  gift,  together 
with  free  artesian  well  water,  and  another  gift  of  ten  free 
beds,  have  all  come  without  any  personal  solicitation.  God's 
hand  can  be  seen  clearly  in  the  work  thus  far.  He  will  carry 
it  on  so  that  it  shall  become  a  blessing  to  multitudes  in  this 
great  city.  Dr.  C.  C.  Walker  is  to  have  charge  of  the  hospital, 
and  a  new  man  will  be  sent  to  take  his  place  in  the  Boon  Itt 
Memorial. 

Sanitarium. — During  the  year  a  beautiful  site  on  the  coast, 
about  sixteen  hours  by  steamer  from  Bangkok,  was  selected 
for  Sanitarium  purposes.  The  Government  granted  us  the 
land   at   a   nominal   rental   of  twelve  ticals.     On  this   spot, 


SIAM— BANGKOK.  397 

surrounded  by  mountain  scenery,  the  Sanitarium  building  is 
being  erected.  Mr.  Snyder  is  superintending  the  construc- 
tion. It  will  be  large  enough  to  accommodate  four  families 
at  one  time,  will  have  spacious  verandas  on  all  sides  and  the 
floor  will  be  six  feet  from  the  ground.  Facing  the  sea,  it  will 
look  out  over  a  beautiful  sandy  beach  ideal  for  bathing  purposes. 
Such  a  retreat  has  long  been  needed  for  our  Mission  in  this 
tropical  land,  so  that  our  workers  can  escape  the  trying 
weather  during  the  hot  season. 

Gymnasium. — Through  the  generous  gifts  of  the  Hon. 
Hamilton  King  and  Pra  Monthri,  combined  with  the  proceeds 
of  the  successful  Lyceum  Course,  enough  money  was  raised 
to  erect  and  furnish  a  fine  open  building  for  a  gymnasium  on 
the  Boys'  School  compound.  Mr.  Franklin,  director  of  the 
gymnasium,  writes:  "It  is  thoroughly  equipped  with  hand 
rings,  trapeze  bars,  horizontal  bars,  parallel  bars,  vaulting 
horse,  climbing  ladder,  punching  bag  and  basket  ball  rings." 
The  students  manifest  eager  interest  in  the  gymnasium  and 
rapidly  develop  physically  under  its  training. 

Lyceum  Course. — Several  visitors  from  America  gladdened 
the  workers  of  this  far-off  land.  Mr.  J.  A.  McClure,  a  member 
of  the  Laymen's  Missionary  Movement,  and  a  brother  to  our 
Mr.  McClure;  the  Rev.  Dr.  John  Fox,  of  the  American  Bible 
Society;  the  Rev.  Roswell  H.  Bates,  of  the  Spring  Street 
Church  of  New  York  City;  Mr.  Norman  Thomas,  whose  grand- 
father worked  for  many  years  in  Siam;  the  Rev.  Dr.  Harlan 
P.  Beach  and  Mrs.  Beach,  of  Yale  University;  Dr.  and  Mrs. 
Edward  W.  Capen,  of  Boston,  and  Prof.  Bradley,  who  was 
born  in  Siam,  but  is  now  in  the  Faculty  of  California  Uni- 
versity, were  among  those  who  visited  Siam  during  the  year 
and  greatly  cheered  the  usually  lonely  missionaries. 

Mr.  and  Mrs.  F.  L.  Snyder  and  Miss  Cooper  were  welcomed 
back  from  furlough. 

We  wish  to  express  our  appreciation  of  the  very  valuable 
help  and  kindly  interest  of  the  Hon.  and  Mrs.  Hamilton  King 
in  our  work;  to  Dr.  and  Mrs.  George  McFarland  for  their 
painstaking  efforts  upon  the  Daybreak  and  their  help  in  many 
other  ways,  and  also  to  Miss  Lucy  Dunlap  for  her  unselfish 
service  and  devotion  to  the  work. 

The  famous  old  schooner  "Kalamazoo,"  used  for  so  many 
years  by  Dr.  and  Mrs.  E.  P.  Dunlap  in  the  Gulf  of  Siam,  had 
to  be  sold,  as  Dr.  and  Mrs.  E.  P.  Dunlap  were  appointed  to 
work  in  Bangkok,  and  as  the  boat  was  fast  deteriorating  from 
the  effects  of  the  weather  without  and  white  ants  within. 
The  Station  report  concludes: 

We  are  impressed  by  our  responsibility  toward  the  large  and  grow- 
ing population  of  Bangkok.  With  our  present  force  of  workers  it  is 
impossible  to  set  aside  a  man  to  work  exclusively  among  the  Chinese, 


398  SIAM— PETCHABUIII. 

of  whom  there  are  about  300,000  in  Bangkok.  From  1,000  to  4,000 
more  arrive  every  month.  Some  go  to  other  parts  of  Siam  and  Laos, 
but  many  remain  in  Bangkok.  Our  Station  has  been  undermanned  for 
years,  but  we  earnestly  hope  that  we  shall  soon  have  an  adequate 
force  to  do  a  larger  evangelistic  work  in  this  great  city  of  large  oppor- 
tunities. 

PETCHABURI   STATION. 

The  little  company  at  Petchaburi  feel  that  there  is  abund- 
ant reason  for  gratitude  to  God.  Health  has  been  generally 
good.  Mr.  Eakin  was  disabled  for  some  time  by  being  thrown 
and  trampled  upon  by  a  runaway  horse;  but  he  is  now  fully 
recovered.  There  have  been  manifest  tokens  of  the  presence 
and  power  of  the  Holy  Spirit. 

EDUCATIONAL  WORK. — Miss  Ednah  Bruner  has  had 
charge  of  the  Boys'  School,  ably  assisted  by  Kru  Noon  and 
Maa  Kru  Cham;  Mrs.  Eakin  gave  a  half  hour  a  day  to  kinder- 
garten songs  and  games  for  the  little  ones,  and  Dr.  McDaniel 
assisted  with  accounts  and  reports. 

After  the  midyear  vacation  the  tuition  fee  was  raised  to  three  ticals 
a  month,  and  the  study  of  Enghsh  was  made  compulsory  for  all  pupils. 
This  change  required  courage;  for  tuition  fees  are  not  popular  here  and 
no  charge  is  made  at  any  other  school.  But  the  result  fully  justified 
the  confidence  of  the  Principal.  The  receipts  are  greater  than  ever 
before  and  the  general  interest  has  increased,  while  there  has  been  no 
falling  off  in  attendance.  The  religious  interest  in  the  school  has  been 
good,  though  confined  mainly  to  the  children  of  Christian  families. 
There  is  one  Christian  pupil  who  comes  from  a  non-Christian  home. 
Several  of  the  older  pupils,  who  are  members  of  the  church,  are  com- 
mitting one  verse  of  Scripture  each  day. 

MEDICAL  WORK. — This  has  been  greatly  hindered  by 
the  absence  of  Dr.  McDaniel,  caused  by  the  severe  illness  of 
Dr.  Bulkley  and  afterwards  of  Dr.  Shellman,  each  of  whom 
was  brought  through  a  protracted  attack  of  fever  and  then 
taken  to  the  Sanitarium  by  Dr.  McDaniel.  Their  restoration 
to  perfect  health  without  the  need  of  leaving  Siam  was_  a 
great  benefit  to  the  work  at  large,  and  the  Station,  while 
regretting  the  necessity,  was  willing  to  sacrifice  its  work  for 
the  sake  of  the  greater  need  elsewhere. 

Since  Dr.  McDaniel  has  been  able  to  give  his  whole  time  to  the  work 
here  it  has  prospered  greatly.  Many  difficult  cases  have  been  treated 
successfully  in  the  hospital^  and  several  have  accepted  Christ  as  the 
healer  of  their  souls.  One  patient,  a  Chinese  Christian,  has  been  dili- 
gent in  trying  to  bring  others  of  his  own  nationality  to  a  knowledge  of 
the  truth,  with  a  fair  degree  of  success.  Patients  who  have  been  healed 
and  converted  in  the  hospital  have  returned  to  their  homes  at  a  dis- 
tance and  told  how  the  Lord  has  blessed  them.  This  testimony  will 
I  advance  our  work,  both  medical  and  spiritital,  in  the  future.

The  efficiency  of  the  hospital  has  been  increased  by  some- 
new  equipment  and  furnishings,  and  it  is  now  better  prepared 
to  care  for  the  sick  than  before.  Dr.  Eakin  gave  assistance 
in  the  rehgious  services  and  during  a  long  tour  vaccinated 
about  400  persons.  On  the  whole,  the  condition  of  this  branch 
of  the  work  is  more  encouraging  than  for  several  years  past. 
The  statistics  are  as  follows: 

Sales  and  prescriptions 979 

Visits 75 

Operations  requiring  a  general  anaesthetic 12 

In-patients 23 

Out-patients 10 

Receipts  from  all  sources,  Ticals 1.103  •  10 

EVANGELISTIC  WORK.— Progress  in  .the  Petchaburi 
Church  has  been  slow.  Services  and  Sunday-school  have 
been  kept  up  without  interruption,  with  a  gradual  increase  in 
attendance.  Only  one  new  member  has  been  received,  but 
two  others  are  candidates  on  probation. 

Mrs.  Eakin  has  a  midweek  prayer  meeting  for  women  which  is  an 
iinportant  feature  of  our  work.  The  attendance  varies  a  good  deal, 
but  in  the  course  of  the  year  about  forty  women  who  do  not  attend 
church  are  thus  brought  under  religious  instruction.  Soinetimes  one 
or  two  wait  after  the  meeting  to  talk  about  affairs  of  personal  interest, 
and  in  this  way  the  bridge  of  friendship  is  formed. 

Miss  Bruner  has  been  carrying  on  work  among  the  women 
and  children  in  two  Laos  villages  near  by,  and  a  good  degree 
of  interest  has  been  awakened. 

A  Sunday-school  has  been  started  at  the  market  chapel,  with  an 
attendance  of  about  fifty.  This  was  made  necessary  by  the  large 
attendance  at  the  preaching  service  of  children,  who  did  not  under- 
stand the  preaching  and  could  not  be  kept  quiet.  Now  room  is  left 
in  the  small  chapel  for  an  audience  of  adults. 

The  country  church  at  Ta  Rua  Ban  Pai  has  had  service 
every  Sunday  morning  for  some  months.  The  attendants 
are  few,  but  they  usually  come  out  well  and  seem  to  be  in 
earnest  in  their  desire  to  build  a  new  chapel.  They  are  now 
worshiping  in  an  open  sala,  which  is  a  common  rest-house 
for  all  passers-by.  It  is  expected  to  raise  the  money  for  the 
new  chapel  on  the  field,  and  a  small  sum  is  in  hand  to  begin 
the  work  as  soon  as  the  rainy  season  is  over.  The  scattered 
membership  has  been  gradually  gathering  in  ever  since  it 
was  known  that  there  would  be  a  regular  service  there. 

The  members  of  the  church  at  Bangkaboon  seem  to  be  so  much 
estranged  among  themselves  that  they  are  unwilling  to  meet  for  public 
worship,  although  they  all  make  the  missionary  welcome  to  hold  a 
service  in  their  houses.     One  new  member  was  recently  received  on

examination.     This  may  be  the  first  drop  of  a  coming  shower  of  bless- 
ing. 

There  are  only  three  famiHes  remaining  of  the  church  at  Paktalay, 
and  the  members  of  one  of  these  are  not  on  speaking  terms  with  the 
other  two.     There  is  Httle  promise  of  a  blessing  there. 

Touring. — Our  chief  encouragement  is  in  connection  with 
itinerating.  A  tour  up  river  of  nineteen  days  by  Dr.  McDaniel 
and  Dr.  Bulkley,  and  a  tour  of  twenty-eight  days  down 
through  Prahn  province  by  Dr.  Eakin,  with  short  tours  of  a 
few  days  each  in  various  directions,  has  covered  our  field 
fairly  well  from  the  border  of  Ratburi  province  to  Koh  Lak, 
and  from  the  sea  coast  on  the  east  to  the  western  mountains. 

In  the  up-river  tour  two  Karen  villages  were  visited,  and  the  people 
listened  with  interest  to  the  Gospel  story  which  they  had  never  heard 
before.  In  other  villages  people  were  found  who  had  heard  the  Gospel 
from  missionaries  on  former  tours  ten  or  twelve  years  ago,  but  the 
work  had  not  been  followed  up.  We  hope  to  work  this  inviting  field 
more  thoroughly. 

Some  of  the  experiences  of  this  touring  work  were  more 
interesting  than  pleasant  at  the  time. 

Once  we  were  lost  in  the  thick  jungle  on  a  dark  night  with  the  pros- 
pect of  having  to  camp  out,  exposed  to  tigers  or  robbers,  with  no  water 
for  our  cattle  or  ourselves;  but  the  distant  barking  of  a  dog  directed 
us  to  a  house  where  we  found  a  guide  to  the  nearest  village.  Once  we 
were  crossing  a  swift  stream  when  only  the  noses  and  horns  of  the 
swimming  oxen  were  visible,  and  we  wondered  whether  they  would  be 
able  to  pull  the  cart  out  of  the  strong  current.  Or  sitting  on  a  folding 
chair,  for  example,  with  open  vaccinating  "kit,"  surrounded  by  fifty 
or  sixty  children,  mostly  babies,  and  as  many  grown  people:  forty 
babies  crying  at  once,  and  the  mothers  looking  as  if  the  situation  was 
getting  on  their  nerves. 

At  the  time  of  the  long  tour  to  Koh  Lak,  which  involved  more  than 
200  miles  of  tramping,  an  English  sitrveyor  in  the  Siamese  Govern- 
ment service  was  shot  at  so  often  by  the  country  people  that  he  had 
to  leave  his  work  unfinished  and  return  to  the  city.  Highway 
robbery  and  murder  were  no  uncommon  occurrences.  But  the 
missionary,  passing  through  the  same  region  with  books  and  medicines, 
was  welcomed  everjn^'here ;  and  he  could  sleep  undisturbed  wherever 
night  came  on. 

In  many  of  these  country  villages  we  left  little  groups  of  from  one 
or  two  to  half  a  dozen  people  who  gave  their  names  as  candidates  for 
baptism.  They  must  be  left  for  months  without  a  visit,  to  bear  the 
brunt  of  ridicule  and  social  ostracism  on  the  part  of  former  friends, 
without  a  human  teacher  to  guide  and  encourage  them.  We  ask 
an  interest  in  your  prayers  for  these  few  sheep  scattered  in  the  wilder- 
ness. 

A  tour  down  the  west  coast  of  the  Gulf  of  Choompon  was 
made  by  Dr.  Eakin.  All  the  Christians  in  the  province,  so 
far  as  known,  were  visited.  Nearly  all  of  them  met  for  a 
preacliing  service.  There  is  a  strong  nucleus  of  Christians  at 
the  mouth  of  the  Choompon  River,  but  in  the  capital  town  the 
impression  made  seemed  to  be  slight.     One  country  village 


SIAM— RATBURI.  401 

was  visited  for  the  first  time  by  a  missionary.     Dr.   Eakin 
continues: 

We  have  not  many  sheaves  to  bring  home  at  this  ingathering,  but 
we  are  not  discouraged  at  the  result  of  the  year's  work.  Wo  have 
visited  fifty  villages  and  large  towns,  many  of  them  more  than  once, 
preaching  the  Gospel  and  healing  the  sick.  We  have  enrolled  sixty- 
two  persons  as  candidates  for  l)aptism.  We  have  recently  baptized 
one  of  these  after  four  months'  proljation,  the  first-fruits  of  the  coming 
harvest.  These  have  all  been  pledged  to  keep  the  Sabbath  and  to 
tell  their  neighbors  the  story  of  redeeming  love.  In  one  case  we 
have  seen  three  converts  in  a  few  weeks  win  over  five  others  to  the 
new  faith.  In  another  case  we  have  seen  the  father  of  a  family  win 
over  his  wife,  son,  two  daughters,  son-in-law,  nephew,  and  a  girl  friend 
of  the  family,  who  all  at  one  time  declared  their  intention  to  join  him 
in  the  Christian  life. 

We  have  four  Siamese  preachers  and  evangelists  who  are  growing 
in  grace  and  knowledge  and  experience  in  work.  One  of  these  is  using 
his  spare  time  in  learning-  Chinese,  that  he  may  be  able  to  preach  to 
the  Chinese  people.  We  have  a  Chinese  colporteur  who  is  taking  hold 
vigorously  of  the  work  of  selling  the  Scriptures  in  both  languages; 
and  we  hope,  by  divine  help,  to  meet  the  responsibilities  of  the  coming 
year. 

RATBURI  STATION. 

It  has  been  deemed  wise  to  consoHdate  this  Station  with 
Petchaburi,  and  the  united  fields  will  hereafter  be  reported 
under  Petchaburi.  The  two  towns  are  only  thirty-five'  miles 
apart  and  are  connected  by  railroad,  so  that  Ratburi  and  its 
neighborhood  can  be  easily  reached.  Petchaburi  is  the  more 
important  city  and  we  have  a  larger  plant  there.  One  family, 
liowever,  will  continue  to  reside  at  Ratburi  to  superintend 
the  local  work,  but  as  members  of  Petchaburi  Station.  The 
work  centring  in  Ratburi  therefore  is  not  to  be  abandoned, 
but  simply  consohdated  with  that  at  Petchaburi,  in  the 
interest  of  economy  and  efficienc3^ 

The  work  at  Ratburi  has  suffered  during  the  past  year  from 
a  dearth  of  competent  native  helpers,  and  from  the  fact  that 
some  departments  of  the  work  have  been  almost  continually 
changing  hands,  both  as  regards  native  helpers  and  mission- 
ary supervision.  For  a  time  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Wachter  were  the 
only  members  of  the  Station. 

This  left  Mrs.  Wachter  in  sole  charge  of  the  girls'  day-school,  and  Dr. 
Wachter  of  all  the  other  Station  work,  including  preaching,  Bible  class, 
medical  work,  the  Suriwong  day-school  for  boys,  and  until  May  the 
Mission  treasury,  in  addition  to  his  regular  weekly  trips  to  Bangkok 
to  lecture  in  the  Government  Medical  Training  School,  which  during 
Dr.  George  B.  McFarland's  absence  of  several  months  in  the  United 
States  occupied  two  full  days  of  each  week.  Before  the  arrival  of  Mr. 
and  Mrs.  Cooper,  June  26,  health  conditions  had  compelled  Mrs. 
Wachter  to  anticipate  her  furlough,  so  that  for  three  months  Dr. 
Wachter  had  been  left  quite  alone.  He  sailed  for  home  in  August. 
His  departure  left  no  one  in  charge  of  our  medical  work  save  a  young 
native  assistant. 


402  SIAM— NAKAWN  SRI  TAMARAT. 

There  being  no  one  to  take  Mrs.  Wachter's  place  in  the  girls' 
school,  it  reopened  May  i  under  Siamese  management,  with 
two  Christian  teachers,  Maa  Muan  and  Lahp.  Thus  far 
there  has  been  no  falling  off  in  the  average  attendance,  while 
the  monthly  shortage  in  revenues  is  their  loss,  not  ours. 

The  other  departments  of  work,  viz.,  the  Sabbath  services 
and  the  Suriwong  school  (for  boys  only),  were  turned  over 
July  I  to  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Cooper. 

In  spite  of  adverse  conditions  the  year  has  brought  its  share 
of  encouraging  results.  Touring  was  of  course  impossible, 
but  not  every  Station,  even  with  a  better  equipped  hospital 
and  a  medical  missionary's  undivided  time,  can  report  a 
larger  work  than  our  little  dispensary  with  its  i,8oo  out- 
patients and  ticals  1,560  of  medical  revenue. 

But  the  work  that  now  seems  most  prosperous  is  naturally 
that  which  has  been  given  most  attention,  viz.,  the  school 
work. 
)^ 

Forty-two  girls  and  96  boys,  or  138  pupils  in  all,  were  enrolled  in 
both  schools  during  the  year.  The  monthly  rolls  averaged  just  20 
girls  and  40  boys;  but  the  enrollment  for  last  month  (August)  shows 
23  girls  and  55  boys,  or  78  pupils  in  all,  which  is  a  decided  gain  since 
the  beginning  of  the  year. 

Last  month's  tuition  fees  in  the  boys'  school  showed  an  increase  of 
more  than  fifty  per  cent.  The  native  helpers  are  all  working  faith- 
fully, and  putting  their  whole  hearts  into  the  work. 

So  with  grateful  recognition  of  divine  help  and  blessing  in  the  past 
year,  we  hope  and  pray  and  plan  for  larger  and  better  things  in  the 
year  to  come. 


NAKAWN  SRI  TAMARAT  STATION. 

For  the  first  time  we  are  able  to  report  three  families  at 
the  Station  during  the  entire  year. 

We  had  hoped  to  be  able  to  report  that  there  were  three  houses 
for  the  three  families  to  occupy,  but  the  Government  is  still  keeping 
us  waiting  for  a  site  for  one  building.  Meanwhile  loss  in  exchange 
will  make  our  appropriation  of  $2,500  secure  ticals  6,750,  instead  of 
ticals  7,500,  as  originally  estimated.  The  two  families  whose  lot  it 
has  been  to  occupy  one  house  are  thankful  they  have  had  protection 
from  rain  and  sun;  glad  they  have  been  enabled  to  live  together  in 
harmony  and  end  the  year  as  good  friends  as  they  began  it.  There 
have  been  advantages  as  well  as  disadvantages  in  the  situation. 

EVANGELISTIC. — Regular  services  have  been  continued. 
The  Sunday-school  has  been  under  the  direction  of  Elder 
Chaang. 

The  second  service,  taken  over  by  the  medical  work  at  the 
opening  of  the  new  hospital,  is  conducted  by  Dr.  Swart  and  his 
first  and  second  assistants,  with  occasional  help  from  the 
ordained  missionaries. 


SIAM     NAKAWN  SRI  TAMARAT.  403 

Touring  has  included  two  trips  to  the  Ta  Nak  region,  two 
trips  to  the  Ishxnd  of  Sainooie,  and  one  of  a])out  two  weeks  by 
Mr.  Post  to  the  Pak  Penung  region.  On  these  trips  seven 
communion  services  were  held  at  five  places.  A  man  and  his 
wife  were  baptized  at  a  point  "beyond  the  mountains,"  and 
at  another  place  a  young  girl  baptized  in  infancy  was  admitted 
to  full  membership.  A  woman  at  Pak  Penung  was  baptized 
at  her  home  by  Mr.  Post.  She  had  been  a  former  in-patient  at 
the  hospital. 

At  the  home  church  eight  persons,  all  patients  or  helpers  in  the 
hospital,  have  been  baptized.  These,  with  two  reported  by  Dr.  Dun- 
lap  from  the  west  side,  three  from  the  Island  of  Samooie,  baptized  two 
years  ago  but  only  enrolled  this  year,  and  the  student  baptized  at  last 
year's  conference  and  enrolled  with  iis,  bring  the  additions  to  our  roll 
for  the  year  up  to  eighteen.  Our  losses  from  death  and  suspension 
have  ainounted  to  twelve.     We  now  report  a  roll  of  164  communicants. 

Of  this  number  only  fifty-two  live  in  or  within  less  than  ten  miles  of 
the  city.  Three  more  live  from  fifteen  to  twenty  miles  away.  One 
each  resides  in  Bangkok,  Singora  and  Pata-loong. 

In  the  Soo  Chone  District  (Ta  Mak),  thirty  miles  distant,  are  the 
hoines  of  twenty-one;  while  sixteen  live  on  Island  of  Samooie  and  a 
neighboring  island.  Thirty-one  are  from  "beyond  the  mountains," 
where  they  are  scattered  all  along  the  valley  of  the  river  Looang,  with 
five  different  centres,  the  nearest  of  them  three  days'  journey  afoot 
from  us.  The  remaining  thirty-eight  are  over  in  the  Puket  circle  of 
provinces,  on  the  Bay  of  Bengal  side,  and  we  have  never  had  the 
privilege  of  meeting  even  one  of  them.  They  are  the  fruits  of  the 
labors  of  Dr.  E.  P.  Dunlap  and  others  who  have  toured  in  that  region. 

EDUCATIONAL.— The  Station  prepared  to  reopen  the 
Boys'  School  soon  after  return  from  annual  meeting. 

The  little  cottage,  which  had  already  served  in  turn  as  a  residence, 
quarters  for  school-boys,  guests  and  servants,  then  as  a  hospital  and 
dispensary  for  four  years,  was  again  changed  to  suit  the  demands  for 
a  schoolroom.  It  now  accommodates  with  crowding  about  thirty 
pupils  and  supplies  a  small  classroom  and  a  room  occupied  by  the 
assistant  teacher. 

Mr.  Post  was  appointed  to  the  work.  He  reports  for  the 
nine  months  the  school  has  been  in  session  an  enrollment  of 
28.  Present  enrollment,  19.  Average  attendance,  15.89. 
Receipts,  ticals  301,  atts.  5.     Expenses,  ticals  269,  atts.  49. 

Valuable  assistance  has  been  given  by  the  Inspector  of 
Schools  for  these  provinces,  the  Buddhist  Bishop  of  the 
diocese,  and  Elder  Chaang  Kroo  Fong,  a  teacher  furnished 
by  the  Government  school,  has  rendered  faithful  service  from 
the  beginning;  and  Nai  Taam,  who  came  asking  to  study 
English  half  the  time,  helped  for  six  weeks. 

MEDICAL. — This  is  the  first  time  the  medical  work  reports 
for  an  entire  year  in  its  new  quarters. 


404  SIAM— PITSANULOKE. 

The  figures  for  the  year  are  as  follows:  Dispensed  10,432  prescrip- 
tions and  portions  of  medicine;  treated  7,965  dispensary  or  out- 
patients; vaccinated  1,855  persons.  The  in-patients  have  numbered 
171.  There  were  205  visits  made  to  the  homes  of  91  patients.  Major 
operations  in  the  hospital  have  been  77,  while  7  more  were  done  in  the 
homes.  About  100  minor  operations  have  been  performed  in  the  dis- 
pensary. 

The  falling  off  in  the  number  of  vaccinations  has  been  due  in  part 
to  the  fact  that  for  the  greater  part  of  the  year  the  hospital  has  not 
been  supplied  with  free  vaccine  lymph,  and  for  the  past  four  months 
has  been  obliged  to  charge  a  small  fee  to  cover  the  cost. 

The  receipts  for  the  fiscal  year  ending  April  30,  1908,  were  ticals 
0,376,  all  of  which  was  expended  in  the  work 

With  the  constantly  increasing  number  seeking  free  treatment  and 
board,  the  question  of  the  finances  is  becoming  more  sei'ious.  It  is 
difficult  to  maintain  the  large  corps  of  assistants  and  servants  neces- 
sary for  care  of  patients  and  buildings  and  still  continue  self-supporting. 

In  August  the  hospital  was  visited  by  His  Royal  Highness 
Prince  Benya,  a  son  of  His  Majesty,  and  by  His  Excellency 
Phya  Sri  Sahadeb,  Vice-Minister  of  the  Interior.  Both 
expressed  satisfaction  at  what  they  saw  of  the  work. 

The  religious  side  of  the  work  has  been  encouraging.  Chapel 
services  are  held  every  morning  except  Sunday,  when  nearly  all 
patients  able  to  leave  the  wards  attend  the  Sabbath  morning  service 
and  Sabbath-school.  Others,  unable  to  cross  the  road  to  the  chapel, 
are  present  at  the  afternoon  service  in  the  hospital  chapel. 

Nine  persons,  including  the  fourth  assistant,  have  during  the  year 
publicly  confessed  Christ  and  been  baptized  from  among  those  coming 
under  the  influence  of  this  branch  of  the  work. 

PITSANULOKE  STATION. 

Pitsanuloke  Station  has  been  engaged  in  work  that  has  made 
progress,  but  it  has  also  had  some  anxious  periods. 

The  first  of  these  was  the  illness  of  Dr.  Shellman,  which  kept  him 
out  of  the  work  about  two  months;  but  all  were  made  happy  by  his 
recovery,  and  since  that  time  he  has  been  as  strong  as  ever.  The 
second  anxious  period  was  when  little  Margaret  [ones  became  seriously 
ill. 

The  assistance  of  Dr.  McDaniel  and  Dr.  Walker  in  these  trying 
experiences  was  greatly  appreciated. 

MEDICAL  WORK.— There  has  been  at  least  one  sign  of 
progress  in  that  the  foreign  doctor  has  been  called  in  several 
cases  before  the  native  doctor  had  exhausted  his  alleged  skill 
and  rendered  a  cure  more  diihcult. 

Usually  the  most  discouraging  feature  about  the  medical  work  is  the 
way  the  doctor  mtist  wait  till  the  Siamese  doctor  has  done  all  he  can. 
A  few  days  ago  a  woman  was  brought  in  with  a  tumor  on  the  neck, 
where  an  operation  would  be  dangerous  on  account  of  the  proximity 
to  large  blood-vessels.  When  her  relatives  were  asked  wh)?^  they 
waited  so  long  before  coming  for  an  operation  they  replied:  "We  have 
tried  every  Siamese  doctor  in  Pitsanuloke,  thinking  that  perhaps  one 


SIAM— PITSANULOKE.  405 

of  them  could  cure  her.  "  In  spite  of  the  second  place  that  we  are  called 
on  to  fill  we  have  been  able  to  send  many  away  happ}',  healed  as  we 
believe  by  a  greater  Physician  tlian  man. 

Daily  prayers  have  been  conducted  in  the  hospital  through- 
out the  year,  and  many  have  heard  the  Gospel  story  for  the 
first  time,  and  some  for  niany  times. 

Our  fourteen  hospital  beds  have  been  filled  nearly  every  day,  and 
many  times  we  have  had  patients  in  the  servants'  quarters  and  many 
in  their  own  house-boats.  The  cramped  condition  of  the  hospital 
wards  has  been  relieved  by  the  completion  of  a  new  ward  holding  six 
beds.  Further  improvement  that  has  been  started  is  an  extension 
of  still  another  ward  that  will  accommodate  four  beds,  dressing  room 
and  an  operating  room.  Both  the  latter  will  add  greatly  to  the  con- 
venience in  treating  patients,  as  formerly  our  dressings  and  operations 
have  had  to  be  done  in  a  small  dark  room,  not  at  all  suitable  for  the 
work. 

Statistics  for  the  year  are  as  follows:  In-patients,  94;  out-patients, 
302,  major  operations,  28;  visits  to  homes  of  sick,  201;  total  receipts, 
ticals  6,036.85. 

Dr.  Bulkley  gave  welcome  aid  for  two  months.  The  greater 
part  of  this  time  he  took  charge  of  the  medical  work,  allowing 
Dr.  Shellman  to  oversee  the  new  addition  to  the  hospital  and 
to  take  a  trip  up  the  river. 

Two  tours  were  made  in  which  medicines  were  sold.  For 
nearly  seven  months  there  v/as  no  competent  assistant  at 
the  hospital,  making  the  work  unusually  hard  on  the  doctor. 
But  he  has  two  in  training  that  we  hope  will  soon  relieve  that 
difficulty. 

BOYS'  SCHOOL. — School  work  has  progressed  more 
favorably  than  we  had  expected,  especially  as  there  is  a  good 
Government  school  in  Pitsanuloke.  Our  advantage  is  in 
teaching  EngHsh,  and  in  being  able  to  get  students  from 
families  near  our  compound. 

Forty-three  students  were  enrolled,  besides  ten  night 
students.  There  is  no  regular  boarding  department,  as  the 
few  boarders  in  attendance  can  be  provided  for  in  other  ways. 
The  average  attendance  has  not  been  above  thirty,  since  the 
population  here  is  continually  shifting. 

Kroo  Soon  See  has  given  another  year's  valuable  assistance  to  the 
school,  and  in  acting  as  personal  teacher  to  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Shellman. 
He  recently  described  himself  in  a  conference  of  Christians  as  being 
the  weakest  of  all  who  are  in  the  Christian  fold.  We  wish  there  were 
more  such  humble  Christians  as  he  in  this  region. 

EVANGELISTIC  WORK.— Regular  preaching  and  Sunday 
school  has  been  conducted  in  the  compound  chapel  and  also 
the  Wednesday  night  services. 


406  SIAM— PITSANULOKE. 

r  Tr 
The  average  attendance  on  Sunday  has  been  60,  and  the  Wednesday 
evening  service  has  had  a  varied  attendance  of  from  25  to  100.  This 
variation  is  explained  by  the  presence  of  soldiers  from  the  barracks 
at  some  of  the  services.  The  Wednesday  meetings  have  had  a  very 
large  attendance  since  we  secured  a  stereopticon  for  use  at  times. 

Three  adults  have  been  baptized  here  during  the  year  and 
two  children. 

Several  tours  have  been  made,  one  to  Utradit  and  way 
points  by  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Jones,  having  Kroo  Soon  See  along 
to  sell  medicines  and  books. 

Services  were  held  and  tracts  and  Scriptures  to  the  amount  of  560 
portions  sold  or  distributed.  Medicines  were  sold  and  a  few  in-patients 
found  for  the  hospital.  We  think  some  good  was  done,  as  the  Gospel 
news  was  made  known  to  manj^  hundreds  of  people. 

The  second  tour  was  made  to  Suco  Tai  by  the  hospital  assistant 
and  the  head  teacher  of  the  school.  This  trip  was  undertaken  with 
some  misgiving,  but  we  believe  good  was  done  as  they  sold  some 
medicines  and  over  400  Scriptures  and  tracts.  Other  short  trips  were 
taken  by  train  down  as  far  as  Pechit  and  way  stations  where  many 
tracts  and  some  medicines  were  sold. 

The  missionaries  hope  to  do  more  extended  touring  the 
coming  year,  and  hope  also  that  they  may  before  many  years 
have  a  launch,  for  much  more  touring  can  then  be  done  and 
important  distant  points  can  be  reached  once  or  more  every 
year. 

A  distance  of  400  miles  on  three  rivers,  all  within  the  bounds  of 
our  Station,  in  addition  to  several  canals,  can  be  traversed  by  a  shallow 
draft  launch.  Along  these  water-courses  about  540,000  people  live. 
This  is  eminently  a  touring  field,  bttt  with  otir  present  force  there  is 
enough  work  in  and  around  Pitsanuloke  to  keep  us  bus}''.  Another 
family  and  a  steam  launch  would  make  our  force  something  like  what 
we  wovdd  consider  stifficient  to  do  reasonably  efficient  work  for  this 
field. 

The  railway  will  be  of  some  assistance  of  course,  but  it  follows 
only  one  branch  of  the  river,  and  if  vve  are  to  do  extensive  work  at  all 
seasons  we  must  have  better  arrangements,  such  as  a  launch  would 
provide. 

The  river  has  overflowed  badly  this  year,  and  the  compound 
has  been  flooded  as  deep  as  four  feet  in  many  places,  doing 
injury  to  the  hospital  buildings,  school  building  and  to  the 
shade  trees.  The  Station  hopes  to  guard  against  such  an 
overflow  in  the  future,  but  it  will  be  quite  a  task,  as  the  water 
seems  to  have  entered  our  place  from  several  directions  this 
year. 

We  have  not  been  able  to  obtain  a  suitable  place  in  the  market  for 
a  chapel  and  dispensary,  but  hope  to  succeed  a  little  later,  as  all  the 
officials  approached  on  the  subject  appear  to  be  favorable  to  our 
securing  such  property;  the  apparent  difficulty  is  the  luicertainty 
as  to  the  amount  of  land  the  Railway  Department  will  require.

CHIENG  MAI  STATION. 

Great  anxiety  was  felt  when  Mrs.  McGilvary,  Mrs.  Harris, 
Mrs.  McKean  and  Mrs.  Freeman  were  all  seriously  ill  at  one 
time.  The  first  has  greatly  improved  in  health  in  spite  of 
her  advanced  age,  but  the  others  have  been  compelled  to 
return  to  America.  There  is  good  hope  that  all  three  of  these 
devoted  missionaries  will  be  restored  to  health  in  due  time, 
though  full  recovery  in  one  or  two  cases  may  be  slow. 

The  Station  feels  encouraged  by  the  signs  of  the  Spirit 
408 


LAOS— CHIENG  MAT.  409 

working  in  the  hearts  of  the  Laos  Christians.  There  is  gradual 
advance  in  all  departments  of  the  work.  It  is  not  rapid,  but 
it  is  steady  and  healthy. 

During  the  first  six  months  of  the  year  the  Station  had  the  assist- 
ance of  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Henry  White,  of  Chicng  Rai.  Mr.  White  made 
a  six  weeks'  tour  to  Pre  and  several  short  trips  in  the  Chieng  Mai 
districts. 

EVANGELISTIC— The  Station  continues  the  custom  of 
dividing  the  entire  field  among  the  members  of  the  Station, 
each  man  being  responsible  for  the  oversight  of  the  Christians 
living  in  a  certain  district.  After  Mr.  Campbell  and  Mr. 
Freeman  left  on  furlough  a  rearrangement  was  made,  and  in 
addition  to  the  regular  assignment  the  Chieng  Mai  City 
Church  was  given  to  Mr.  Harris ;  all  east  of  the  river  excepting 
Maa  Dawg  Church,  including  Lampoon  substation,  to  Mr. 
Collins  and  Dr.  McKean;  all  west  of  the  river  to  Mr.  Palmer 
and  C.  W.  Mason,  and  all  the  city  or  any  other  place  at  his 
discretion  to  Dr.  McGilvary.     Dr.  McGilvary  writes: 

My  plans  for  more  extensive  village  work  by  weekly  visits  in  the 
country  were  first  interrupted  by  the  illness  of  my  wife.  It  is  less  to 
be  regretted  as  the  city  is  always  accessible,  and  has  been  relatively 
more  neglected  by  most  of  the  Mission  than  any  other  part  of  ottr 
field.  For  immed'iate  resvilts  the  country  is  more  productive,  but  for 
wide  and  ultimate  influence  work  among  the  upper  classes  and  the 
priests,  soon  to  become  the  educated  business  men  in  the  country  and 
government,  is  no  less  important 

Mr.  Collins,  although  busy  every  day  in  the  week  with  the 
multitudinous  duties  of  the  Mission  Press,  has  given  much 
time  to  his  two  country  churches  and  one  country  district, 
spending  all  told  twenty-seven  Sundays  in  these  three  places. 

Mr.  Campbell  reports  that  in  caring  for  the  numerous  out- 
stations  of  Chieng  Mai  Church  he  made  eight  tours,  varying 
in  length  from  three  to  eight  days  each. 

On  five  of  these  tours  Mr.  Palmer  accompanied  me  and  gave  very 
effective  assistance  with  the  organ,  singing  and  in  other  ways.  Fre- 
quent visits  to  the  out-stations  of  this  church  have  also  been  made 
by  Kroo  Pook,  Ai  Pan  and  Elder  Nan  Chack.  Kroo  Pannya  has  also 
made  a  few  visits  to  the  out-stations.  I  have  made  Chieng  Dao  Church 
two  visits  of  a  week  each  and  it  has  also  been  visited  by  the  helpers. 
One  tour  of  ten  days  was  made  to  the  district  of  Muang  Pao  Church. 

Mr.  Freeman,  before  leaving  for  home  on  furlough,  spent 
much  of  his  time  touring  among  his  people  in  the  Bethel  and 
Wang  Moon  churches. 

Mr.  Palmer,  in  company  with  Mr.  Campbell,  visited  five 
of  the  country  districts,  and  since  Mr.  Campbell's  departure 
has  visited  each  district  west  of  the  river  at  least  once  and 


410  LAOS— CHIENG  MAI. 

some  several  times.     Altogether  he  has  spent  fifty-six  days 
touring. 

Miss  Gilson  made  an  eighteen-day  tour.  She  brought 
back  with  her  twenty  scholars  for  the  schools — fourteen  for 
the  Girls'  School,  five  for  the  College  and  one  for  the  Phraner 
Memorial  School. 

THE  CHURCHES.— C/zi^wg  Mai  First  Church.— The  care 
of  this  the  mother  church  with  its  seventeen  country  districts, 
covering  a  territory  from  ten  to  twenty-five  miles  east  and 
west  and  about  loo  miles  north  and  south,  was  practically 
borne  by  Mr.  Campbell,  though  other  members  of  the  Station 
assisted,  especially  in  the  oversight  of  the  country  districts. 
Since  his  departure  this  oversight  has  fallen  to  Mr.  Harris. 

Mr.  Campbell  writes : 

Kroo  Pannya  and  Elders  Kawt  and  Nan  Chai  have  given  valuable 
and  eflfective  assistance  in  the  work  in  and  near  the  city;  Kroo  Pook, 
Ai  Pan  and  Elder  Nan  Chack  in  the  out-stations.  I  have  devoted 
much  time  to  the  supervision  of  these  workers,  holding  frequent  con- 
ferences with  them.  I  have  also  done  much  house-to-house  visitation. 
About  half  of  the  preaching  at  the  city  has  been  done  by  the  native 
brethren  and  the  remainder  by  the  missionaries  of  the  Station.  The 
excellent  work  done  by  the  college  and  the  girls'  school  and  the  music 
furnished  by  the  students  for  the  church  services  has  done  much  to 
advance  the  work  of  the  First  Church.  The  vaccinators  and  the  gen- 
eral medical  and  hospital  work  are  also  a  strong  agency  for  the  spread 
of  the  Gospel  and  its  permanency  in  this  church  as  well  as  elsewhere. 

The  marked  development  in  the  character  and  Christian  activity 
of  several  of  the  leading  members  of  the  church  has  been  very  encourag- 
ing. The  work  of  the  native  brethren  who  have  acted  as  my  assist- 
ants deserves  the  highest  commendation. 

The  accessions  on  confession  of  faith  this  year  were  113 
eighty-six  infants  were  baptized.     There  was  a  net  gain  in 
membership  of  ninety-six  members.     The  total  membership 
is  now  1,312. 

The  city  Sunday-school  has  been  efficiently  superintended 
by  Elder  Nai  Semo.  Sunday-schools  were  also  held  in  twelve 
of  the  country  districts. 

Maa  Dawk  Dang  Church. — Mr.  Harris,  as  for  many  years 
past,  has  been  superintendent  of  this  church,  which  is  about 
twelve  miles  northeast  of  the  city.     He  reports: 

I  have  made  the  usual  number  of  visits,  but  daily  attendance  at  the 
college  ten  months  of  the  year  has  made  longer  stays  impossible. 
Eleven  have  been  added  to  this  church,  seven  of  whom  were  tinbap- 
tized  persons;  thirteen  have  been  dismissed  to  other  churches  and  two 
have  been  dropped;  so  that  there  is  a  net  loss.  Interest  and  attend- 
ance are  good. 

One  event  made  a  great  impression  tipon  the  people. 

A  Buddhist,  who  was  also  a  great  spirit  worshiper,  married  a  Chris- 
tian woman  many  years  ago.  Many  efforts  were  made  to  lead  him 
to  Christ,  and  at  one  time  he  decided  to  be  a  Christian,  but  before 


LAOS— CHIENG  MAT.  411 

taking  a  decided  stand  he  again  lapsed  into  spirit  worship.  He  was 
suddenly  stricken  with  acute  Bright's  disease;  his  body  and  face  be- 
came terribly  swollen;  he  spent  all  his  money  in  spirit  charms  to  no 
avail  and  his  life  was  despaired  of.  Then  he  decided  to  forsake  the 
spirits  and  live  or  die  a  Christian.  The  spirit  charms  were  disposed 
of,  the  Christian  elders  were  called  in  and  offered  prayer  in  his  behalf. 
From  that  day  the  man  began  to  improve  rapidly  and  was  soon 
restored  to  health.  One  can  of  course  find  a  nattiral  explanation 
of  this  sudden  recovery;  but  may  we  not  see  in  it  also,  as  our  native 
brethren  do,  the  hand  of  God? 

Bethlehem  Church. — This  has  been  the  charge  of  Mr.  Collins 
for  several  years,  and  is  about  twelve  miles  south  of  the  city. 
He  has  made  regular  monthly  visits  except  when  prevented 
by  floods. 

The  spiritual  condition  of  the  church  is  good  and  the  membership 
is  faithful  Fifteen  were  admitted  during  the  year,  fourteen  of  them 
unbaptized  persons.  Five  infants  were  baptized.  Considerable  work 
has  been  done  in  Ban  Ta,  a  village  about  three  miles  north  of  the  chapel, 
and  most  of  the  accessions  have  been  from  that  village.  Several  more 
are  studying  and  we  hope  that  they  will  soon  take  a  stand. 

San  Sai  Churcli. — This  also  is  under  the  care  of  Mr.  Collins, 
and  is  about  six  miles  northeast  of  the  city.  His  monthly 
visits  to  this  church  have  also  been  interrupted  by  floods, 
the  roads  being  at  times  absolutely  impassable. 

Attendance  at  the  services  is  good.  Five  were  added  on  confession 
during  the  year.  The  San  Sai  Christians  have  the  framework  of  their 
new  chapel  up  and  are  hoping  to  complete  the  building  during  the  next 
dry  season.      Building  chapels  in  Laos  requires  both  time  and  patience. 

Maa  Poo  Kah  Church. — This  church  is  situated  about 
twelve  miles  east  of  the  city  and  is  under  the  care  of  Dr. 
McKean. 

The  year  has  been  discouraging  in  that  no  accessions  were  made. 
Many  of  the  strongest  Christians  have  moved  away  and  the  year 
has  been  marked  by  many  deaths.  But  with  an  unusual  rice  crop  for 
that  region,  we  look  for  spiritual  blessings  as  well. 

Mttang  Pao  Church. — This  church  consists  of  several  scat- 
tered villages  about  sixty  miles  north  of  the  city  and  is  one  of 
Mr.  Campbell's  charges.     He  reports: 

I  have  endeavored  to  maintain  as  close  an  oversight  as  possible 
through  visits  by  Kroo  Pook,  Ai  Pan  and  Elder  Nan  Chack,  and  by 
frequent  conferences  with  the  elders  when  in  Chieng  Mai  on  business 
and  by  frequent  letters.  Kroo  Chai  Ma,  the  native  minister,  althotigh 
advanced  in  years,  has  done  a  large  amount  of  effective  work.  The 
new  teak  chapel  has  been  completed  and  dedicated  and  sixteen  have 
united  with  the  church  on  confession  of  faith  in  Christ.  Forty  children 
have  been  in  attendance  at  the  Mission  and  parochial  schools.  Of 
these  twenty  were  local  pupils  who  took  an  active  part  in  the  dedi- 
cation of  the  new  chapel  and  were  reviewed  in  their  studies  in  the 
presence  of  1,250  spectators. 


412  LAOS— CHIENG  MAI. 

Chieng  Dao  Church,  also  under  the  care  of  Mr.  Campbell, 
is  about  fifty  miles  north  of  the  city.  Only  two  have  united 
with  this  church,  but  the  Christians  have  subscribed  for  the 
erection  of  a  new  house  of  worship  and  are  much  encouraged. 

Lampoon  Church,  Bethel  Church,  Wang  Moon  Church. — 
All  three  of  the  churches  which  constitute  Lampoon  sub- 
station are  under  the  care  of  Mr.  Freeman,  who  reports: 

The  year  has  been  fairly  prosperous.  Thirty-one  have  been  received 
on  confession  in  the  three  churches.  In  addition  some  who  had  been 
indifferent  have  returned  and  twenty  infants  have  been  baptized. 
The  revision  of  the  rolls  dropped  some  who  had  long  shown  themselves 
indifferent.  We  have  dismissed  more  by  letter  than  we  received. 
The  churches  are  all  contributing  to  keep  evangelists  at  work  in  our 
absence,  and  we  look  to  see  the  work  fairly  maintained,  even  though 
no  missionary  can  give  it  close  supervision.  Elder  Pan  is  a  conscien- 
tious  worker. 

EDUCATIONAL  WORK.— Pnwc^  RoyaVs  College.— Mr. 
Harris  reports  that  the  college  has  held  three  sessions  this 
year,  aggregating  ten  months. 

The  Spring  attendance  was  122  as  against  105  last  year;  the  Autumn 
attendance  95  as  against  102  last  year  There  was  a  large  increase  in 
attendance  from  the  city  during  the  Autumn,  but  this  was  more  than 
oft'set  by  the  small  attendance  of  country  boys  on  accoiuit  of  floods 
and  late  rice  planting.  The  disposition  of  parents  to  take  boys  out  to 
work  is  one  of  the  serious  problems  we  have  to  face.  We  are  trying 
to  get  the  parents  to  surrender  their  children  to  our  schools  as  the  boys 
are  surrendered  to  the  Laos  temples,  allowing  no  outside  influence  to 
detract  from  their  regular  attendance  until  they  finally  complete  their 
course. 

Receipts  were  itipees  2,180  as  against  rupees  1,226  the  previous 
year,  a  gain  of  77  per  cent.  But  the  college  is  constantly  embarrassed 
for  lack  of  funds.  The  following  estimate  shows  approximately  how 
matters  stand; 

Board  appropriation Rs.     1,429 

Receipts  on  field 2,180 

To  balance 591 

Rs.    4,200 

Salaries  native  teachers Rs.  1,800 

Food  for  average  forty  boys 1,200 

Wages  coolie  and  cook 300 

Incidentals 300 

Books  and  supplies 400 

Rs.    4,200 

From  this  it  will  be  seen  that  on  the  present  basis  the  college  is 
seriously  embarrassed.  But  this  is  not  all:  the  present  wage  paid 
our  teachers  is  so  low  that  few  if  my  of  them  look  upon  this  as  a  per- 
manent employment.  We  need  now  a  higher  class  of  teachers,  not 
mere  boys  but  trained  men,  and  to  have  them  we  must  pay  a  fair  wage. 
This  will  mean  an  expenditure  of  2,000  rupees.  Part^of^this  will 
doubtless  be  met  by  the  increasing  attendance  of  wealthy  boys  from 


LAOS— CHIENG  MAI.  413 

the  city,  Imt  the  balance  must  be  met  by  an  increased  appropriation  or, 
better  still,  by  a  permanent  endowment.  Again  there  is  the  j^roblem 
of  the  poor  country  boys.  We  should  be  able  to  take  in  all  that  come, 
for  tney  are  the  hope  of  the  country  churches.  But  as  things  ai'e  now, 
we  can  take  only  a  few.  To  take  in  any  considerable  number  would 
bankrupt  the  college. 

The  year's  work  has  been  satisfactory.  The  course  of  study  has 
been  again  enlarged.  All  the  teachers  received  normal  instruction 
throughout  the  year.  During  the  Summer  the  native  teachers  from 
Lakawn,  the  Mission  and  parochial  schools  in  Chieng  Mai  were  in\"ited 
to  convene  for  four  weeks'  instruction  at  the  college.  Forty  responded. 
In  this  work  Miss  Gilson  and  Miss  Carothers  ably  assisted.  We  hope 
hereafter  to  extend  the  scope  of  this  work,  extending  the  invitation  to 
native  teachers  in  all  our  Stations. 

Religious  interest  in  the  college  has  been  good.  The  majority  of 
the  boys  are  young,  but  some  of  the  older  ones  give  promise  of  large 
Christian  influence.  The  Y.  M.  C.  A.  is  now  entirely  in  the  hands  of 
the  students.  The  weekly  meetings  are  well  attended,  and  at  their 
own  stiggestion  a  weekly  collection  is  taken  up,  half  of  which  they 
have  pledged  to  evangelistic  work.  As  usual  the  great  majority  of 
our  scholars  come  from  Christian  homes,  and  almost  invariably  unite 
with  the  Church  on  arriving  at  the  proper  age. 

Chieng  Mai  Girls'  School. — Miss  Gilson  reports  that  sick- 
ness among  pupils  and  teachers  shortened  both  the  first  and 
second  terms  and  diminished  the  attendance.  One  hundred 
and  twelve  were  enrolled,  of  whom  sixty-six  were  boarders. 
Tuition  fees  were  Rs.  612.62.  Floods,  poor  rice  crops,  diffi- 
culty of  securing  competent  teachers  for  the  wages  we  can  pay, 
and  keeping  girls  at  home  on  slight  pretexts  affect  this  school 
as  well  as  the  college.  In  spite  of  these  difficulties,  however, 
good  work  is  being  done  and  progress  made. 

Day-schools. — Six  primary  day-schools  have  been  in  session 
with  an  enrollment  of  about  230.  The  most  important  is 
The  Phraner  Memorial  Primary  School,  which  has  had  an 
enrollment  of  105,  the  largest  in  the  history  of  the  school. 
Mrs.  Campbell  was  in  charge  the  first  term  and  Mrs.  Palmer 
the  second.  This  school  is  doing  an  important  work.  Two 
native  teachers  do  faithful  work.  The  school  is  self-support- 
ing. 

A  day-school  was  held  at  Maa  Dawk  Dang  with  forty-three  pupils. 
Rs-  61  were  raised  for  its  support. 

A  day-school  was  held  for  thi-ee  months  at  both  Bethlehem  and  San 
Sai,  the  Christians  employing  their  teachers  and  assuming  full  support 
of  the  schools.  Maa  Poo  Kah  and  Muang  Pao  also  have  self-support- 
ing day-schools  with  twenty-three  and  twent}''  pupils  respectively. 

Lampoon  City  has  a  good  day-school  and  several  smaller  schools 
have  been  maintained  in  the  outlying  villages.     All  self-supporting. 

The  Training  School  for  evangelistic  workers  was  convened 
as  usual  for  a  two  weeks'  session.     Mr.  Harris  reports: 

This  year  the  class  met  at  the  Prince  Royal's  College.  Forty  men 
were  in  attendance.     The  opening  services  each  morning  were  attended 


414  LAOS— CHIENG  MAI. 

by  the  college  students  and  were  conducted  by  the  leading  men  of  the 
church,  who  made  some  splendid  addresses.  The  instructors  were 
Messrs.  McGilvary,  Collins  and  McKean.  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Palmer  gave 
instruction  in  music  and  the  Sunday-school  lessons. 

MEDICAL  WORK.— Dr.  McKean  reports  that  growth  of 
this  work  has  been  steady  and  that  he  and  Dr.  Mason  are 
kept  busy. 

For  many  years  the  missionary  physician  was  the  only  person  who 
practised  Western  medicine  and  surgery  in  all  this  vast  region.  But 
for  four  or  five  years  past  there  has  been  in  Chieng  Mai  a  Government 
European  medical  officer  and  three  Siamese  medical  graduates.  Still 
there  is  a  great  abundance  of  work  for  all. 

For  more  than  twenty  years  the  medical  work  of  Chieng  Mai  has 
not  only  drawn  no  funds  from  the  Board,  but  in  addition  to  paying 
all  expenses  has  contributed  many  thousands  of  rupees  toward  the 
purchase  of  land  and  the  erection  of  buildings  for  missionary  use. 
The  receipts  for  the  last  fiscal  year  were  Rs.  24,923.58,  including 
Lampoon  Dispensary  receipts  of  Rs.  1,450. 

The  Dispensary  Clinic  is  not  very  large  in  numbers,  if  we 
ehminate  the  considerable  number  of  persons  who  come  to 
buy  medicines  for  use  at  home. 

The  knowledge  of  common  household  remedies  is  becoming  more 
widespread  year  by  year. 

The  dispensary  isstied  its  fourth  annual  calendar  in  April.  As  in 
former  editions,  it  contains  four  pages  of  religious  matter.  The  people 
appreciate  the  calendar  and  many  ask  for  the  issues  of  previous  years, 
to  have  them  bound  together  for  reference. 

The  medical  work  of  Lampoon  substation  has  been  under 
the  care  of  Mr.  Freeman.  Dr.  Mason  has  made  fortnightly 
visits  most  of  the  year,  both  for  the  care  of  the  missionaries 
and  those  who  come  for  treatment  at  these  stated  intervals. 
This  is  a  valuable  adjunct  to  the  work  of  Lampoon  substation. 
Receipts  were  Rs.  1,450  last  year. 

The  Hospital. — The  total  number  of  in-patients  this  year 
was  155,  but  members  of  the  family  or  other  friends  almost 
always  accompany  the  patient  to  the  hospital  and  remain 
through  his  illness  as  his  nurse,  and  the  number  of  persons 
who  remain  in  the  hospital  for  a  varying  period  throughout 
the  year  is  at  least  two  or  three  times  the  number  of  recorded 
patients.  All  come  under  Christian  instruction  and  many 
of  the  relatives  and  friends  also  receive  medical  attention. 
Dr.  Kao,  the  head  nurse,  continues  his  unwearying  services, 
and  Dr.  Chanta,  who  for  twenty  years  has  been  chief  assist- 
ant, is  still  a  power  for  good. 

The  foreign  ward  was  occupied  during  four  months  of  the 
year. 

The  hospital  chapel  is  conveniently  located  in  the  centre  of  the  main 
building.     The  daily  evening  services  are  fairly  well  attended  by  the 


LAOS— CHIENG  MAI.  415 

patients,  as  well  as  by  the  hospital  servants  and  their  families.  The 
stereopticon  with  Bible  pictures  is  often  used.  Evangelistic  work  in 
the  wards  is  carried  on  in  a  systematic  manner.  A  short  morning 
prayer  service  for  the  physicians  and  the  attendants  is  immediately 
followed  by  religious  visits  to  the  wards,  a  certain  person  being  assigned 
that  dut}'  for  a  certain  da3^ 

The  Christian  Endeavor  Society  has  met  weekly  throughout  the 
year.  This  is  one  of  the  best  meetings  of  the  week  both  in  attendance 
and  in  general  interest.  Aside  from  their  regular  offering  which  has 
been  taken  for  several  years,  all  the  members  have  this  year  agreed 
upon  a  monthly  subscription  for  the  support  of  an  evangelist.  Every 
member  of  every  family  has  a  share  in  this. 

Vaccine  Work. — The  Vaccine  Laboratory  has  furnished 
lymph  for  the  Government  vaccinators  throughout  all  the 
northern  provinces,  besides  our  own  trained  vaccinators. 

As  in  previous  years,  the  vaccinators  were  called  in  for  monthly 
instruction  during  the  vaccinating  season.  Dr.  McGilvary,  Mr. 
Freeman,  Mr.  Campbell  and  Mr.  Palmer  gave  valuable  assistance  at 
these  sessions.  The  men  are  instructed  in  the  Scriptures  and  Chris- 
tian duties  and  are  urged  to  evangelistic  effort  in  connection  with  their 
vaccinating  work.  In  spite  of  the  fact  that  the  Government  has 
introduced  free  vaccination,  there  are  still  many  in  remote  districts 
who  prefer  to  pay  the  Chiustian  vaccinator  the  one  rupee  fee  than  take 
free  Government  vaccination.  These  men  reach  many  distant  places 
and  some  of  them  are  faithful  in  presenting  the  Gospel. 

Receipts  were  Rs.  1,906  and  vaccinations  3,812. 

Leper  Work. — Dr.  McKean  has  faithfully  continued  his  self- 
denying  efforts  for  these  pathetic  outcasts.     He  writes: 

The  year  has  seen  some  progress  in  the  work  for  the  lepers.  The 
hindrances  to  the  inauguration  of  any  work  in  this  land  are  so  numer- 
ous as  to  be  very  trying,  and  work  among  lepers  is  no  exception.  We 
record  with  gratitude  the  prompt  exercise  of  authority  by  His  Excel- 
lency the  High  Commissioner  several  times  during  the  year  to  restrain 
those  who  were  greatly  hindering  us  and  resenting  the  occupation  of 
the  land  which  the  Government  had  given  us. 

There  has  been  a  considerable  portion  of  the  arable  land  cleared 
for  rice  cultivation,  and  had  not  our  neighbors  secretly  cut  away  a 
dam  by  night  and  flooded  us  hopelessly,  we  should  probably  have  had 
something  of  a  rice  crop.    We  hope  to  forestall  this  danger  in  the  future. 

There  have  been  nine  lepers  under  our  care.  These  people  seem 
happy  in  their  new  home.  Those  who  are  not  already  Christians  are 
learning  to  read  and  pray.  At  their  own  request,  a  bamboo  chapel 
was  built  in  the  midst  of  their  circle  of  bamboo  huts.  The  funds 
have  been  sufficient  thus  far. 

MISSION  PRESS.— Mr.  Collins,  Superintendent,  reports 
a  busy  year.  From  eighteen  to  twenty-two  men  and  boys 
have  been  employed.  The  great  bulk  of  the_^Mission  work 
is  in  the  Laos  language,  while  most  of  the  work  done  for  the 
Siamese  Government  is  in  Siamese.  The  number  of  pages 
printed  show.'^.  an  increase  of  over  600,000  pages  over  the 
preceding  year. 


416  LAOS— CHIENG  llAl. 

The  year's  printing  for  the  American  Bible  Society  and  the  Mission 
was  as  follows:  Exodus,  1,500  copies;  First  Samuel,  1,500  copies; 
Life  of  Christ,  completed,  500  copies;  Child's  Catechism,  fourth  edition, 
5  000  copies;  Manual  for  New  Christians,  500  copies. 

In  addition  to  this  list,  the  Laos  Christian  newspaper  and  Sunday- 
school  lessons  combined  have  been  issued  every  month.  More  than 
7,000  copies  of  this  publication  have  been  distributed  to  every  part  of 
the  land.  The  Laos  News,  printed  in  English  and  issued  quarterly 
with  almost  1,000  names  on  our  subscription  list,  is  mailed  to  every 
part  of  the  United  States  and  some  fifty  copies  are  sent  to  almost  a 
dozen  other  foreign  countries. 

Number  of  pages  printed  for  Bible  Society  and  Mission,  1,045,400; 
ntimber  of  pages  printed  for  outside  parties,  1,757,600;  a  total  of 
2,803,000  pages. 

The  following  is  a  condensed  list  of  books  of  all  kinds  sent  out  from 
the  Press  during  the  year.

The  Press  is  not  only  self-supporting,  but  during  the  year 
several  thousand  rupees  of  surplus  funds  have  gone  to  other 
departments  of  the  Mission  work. 

LITERARY  WORK.— Before  Mrs.  McGilvary's  illness  she 
had  revised  nearly  one-half  of  the  Gospel  by  Matthew.  Dr. 
McGilvary's  autobiography,  urged  upon  him  by  the  Board, 
has  made  fair  progress,  and  Dr.  McGilvary  hopes  to  have  it 
well  toward  completion  by  the  end  of  another  year. 

Mr.  Campbell  has  completed  the  translation  of  First  Samuel  and  has 
prepared  the  Sunday-school  lessons  on  Exodus. 

Mr.  Freeman  also  prepared  Sunday-school  lessons  throughout  the 
year. 

Mrs.  McKean  until  her  illness  continued  to  edit  the  monthly  native 
newspaper  and  prepared  a  manual  for  the  instruction  of  new  believers. 

BUILDING.— 

A  residence  for  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Mason  is  nearing  completion,  and  a 
dormitory  accommodating  twenty-four  boys  has  been  built  at  Prince 
Royal's  College.  This  building  is  designed  for  the  well-to-do  boys 
and  will  materially  augment  receipts.  During  the  year  Rs.  1,340 
have  been  subscribed  to  the  building  fund,  which  now  shows  an  over- 
draft of  Rs.  663,  half  of  which  has  been  pledged. 

Work  on  the  Phraner  Memorial  School  building  has  been  continued 
during  the  year  and  marked  progress  has  been  made. 

CHIENG  RAI  STATION. 

The  year  has  been  one  of  strenuous  service,  rich  blessing,  and 
marked  growth  in  Chieng  Rai  Station,  with  its  twenty-three 
out -stations.     The  missionaries  are  all  thankful  for  work  to 


LAOS— CHIENG  RAl.  4l7 

do  and  strength  to  do  it,  for  unbroken  harmony  and  for  the 
evidences  of  divine  approval. 

Chieng  Rai  gained  largely  in  the  closing  of  Keng-tung,  largely  in 
territory  to  be  covered  (which  gain  was  not  sought  for,  inasmuch  as 
our  field  was  already  sufficiently  extensive),  and  largely  in  the  acqui- 
sition of  Rev.  Dr.  and  Mrs.  W.  Clifton  Dodd,  which  gain  is  heartily 
welcomed. 

Dr.  Dodd  was  assigned  to  the  Moderatorship  of  Papau 
Church,  and  also  to  the  oversight  of  the  work  among  the  hill 
people  until  the  return  of  Dr.  Briggs,  in  addition  to  the 
Moderatorship  of  the  Keng-tung  Church  and  the  oversight 
of  Keng-tung  substation. 

As  soon  as  he  could  do  so,  he  made  a  tour  of  the  Papau  Church  dis- 
trict lying  at  a  distance  from  the  city,  viz.,  Muang  Fang,  Muang  Nawng 
Kwang  and  Muang  Papau.  In  the  Muang  Fang  district  there  is  appar- 
ently a  good  spirit  among  the  Christians  of  one  village,  Ban  Sop  Mao 
which  is  wholly  Christian.  Sunday-school  was  reorganized  here,  and 
the  people  seem  greatly  heartened  by  the  visit.  During  this  tour  and 
the  visits  in  Me  Kawn,  eight  who  had  been  straying,  some  of  them  for 
years,  were  brought  back. 

The  Papau  Church  as  a  whole  has  this  year  received  seven- 
teen members  on  confession  of  faith,  fourteen  by  letter,  has 
restored  three  and  suspended  one.  Five  adults  and  seventeen 
children  were  baptized.     The  total  membership  is  now  274. 

Dr.  and  Mrs.  Briggs  have  been  in  America  on  furlough. 
Their  work  at  home  resulted  in  securing  two  new  missionaries 
for  Laos  and  funds  for  their  support,  together  with  $10,000 
for  a  hospital  plant  at  Chieng  Rai,  the  last  the  generous  gift 
of  friends  in  the  church  at  Overbrook,  Pa. 

Rev.  Henry  White,  during  the  first  half  of  the  year,  had 
charge  of  the  Weing  Papau  Church.  He  visited  Muang  Pan 
and  Weing  Papau  and  Ban  Me  Kawn  early  in  the  year.  At 
annual  meeting  Mr.  White  was  detailed  by  the  Mission  to  tour 
in  Pre  Province,  Mrs.  White  remaining  at  the  sanitarium 
near  Chieng  Mai  while  Mr.  White  was  absent  on  this  tour  and 
in  other  work.  In  May,  Mr.  and  Mrs.  White  left  for  America 
on  furlough. 

Mr.  Vincent  has  had  charge  of  the  Chieng  Rai  City  Church, 
also  the  Nang  Leh  and  the  Chieng  Sen  Churches.  He  has 
toured  his  widely  scattered  field  and  visited  Keng-tung,  in 
addition  to  house  building.  Mrs.  Vincent  has  had  charge  of 
the  Chieng  Rai  day-school.  All  of  these  labors  have  yielded 
good  results,  especially  that  of  the  day-school. 

Chieng  Rai  during  the  year  added  to  its  day-school  courses  in  English 
and  Siamese ;  two  qualified  teachers  being  secured  in  addition  to  faith- 
ful  Elder  Ta  and   Boon  Ta.     Humanely  speaking,  it  is  principally 
through  schools  and  trained  Laos  workers  that  we  shall  be  able  to

evangelize  Laos  land.  The  enrollment  in  the  Chieng  Rai  day-school 
has  now  reached  fifty-two.  Expenses  have  been  384  rupees,  of  which 
100  were  furnished  by  the  Board.  Phra  Bhakdinarong,  the  Siamese 
Commissioner  here,  is  not  only  encouraging  this  school  work,  but  he 
sends  his  son  and  pays  five  times  the  regular  tuition  fee.  He  assures 
us  that  he  wants  to  aid  us  financially  and  by  his  good  offices  to  build 
up  a  boarding  school  in  Chieng  Rai. 

Mr.  Vincent  made  a  tour  to  Muang  Tung  in  March,  and  in 
October  a  tour  by  boat  touching  French  territory  and  visiting 
Wieng  Kok  and  Chieng  Sen  and  Ta  Kow  Puach.  This  tour 
was  most  encouraging. 

Into  the  Chieng  Sen  Church  while  on  this  tour  fourteen  were  received 
upon  confession  of  faith,  and  one  elder  who  had  been  disciplined  was 
restored  to  communion  and  office.  We  rejoice  in  the  66  per  cent, 
increase  in  that  little  struggling  church  which  has  endured  much 
persecution  at  the  hands  of  the  French  Government. 

During  the  year  the  Session  received  into  the  Chieng  Rai 
City  Church  thirty  members,  an  increase  of  almost  37  per  cent., 
making  in  all  at  present  112  members. 

The  church  has  purchased  a  site  for  its  permanent  church  btiilding, 
and  has  fitted  up  a  chapel  and  a  school  on  its  ground.  The  offerings 
for  the  year  are  242  rupees.  Mr.  Vincent  has  had  two  vexing  cases  of 
discipline  in  the  Chieng  Rai  Chui'ch,  but  they  have  worked  out  for 
good. 

Mr.  Vincent  received  into  the  Nang  Leh  Church  thirty-two  members, 
which  is  an  increase  of  30  per  cent,  upon  the  former  membership,  and 
making  a  total  of  137  members.  A  fourth  elder  was  ordained.  Nang 
Leh  Church  has  been  organized  less  than  three  years.  It  has  supported 
schools  in  three  villages  at  different  times  during  the  year,  and  has  con- 
tributed for  all  purposes  during  the  year  137  rupees,  or  exactly  i 
rupee  per  member. 

Mr.  Vincent  reports  in  summing  up  his  year's  work  that  he 
has  received  into  the  three  churches  under  his  charge  seventy- 
six  members,  fifty-five  of  these  upon  confession  of  faith. 

Dr.  and  Mrs.  Crooks,  who  came  to  this  Station  to  take  up 
Dr.  Briggs'  work  during  his  furlough,  have  done  efficient  work 
in  the  dispensary  and  hospital  and  also  extensive  totiring  and 
evangelistic  work.  During  the  first  half  of  the  year  they  had 
charge  of  the  work  among  the  hill  tribes. 

In  January,  Mrs.  Crooks  toured  ten  days  among  the  villages  to  the 
north  of  the  city,  in  the  Nang  Leh  district.  In  February  she  visited 
the  Musu  Christians.  A  three  days'  trip  through  a  wilderness  brought 
her  to  their  camp  where  she  was  joyously  welcomed.  Classes  were 
held  daily.  Services  were  held  every  evening  with  all  the  village  in 
attendance. 

In  March,  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Crooks  went  out  to  the  villages  south  of 
the  city  where  they  had  opened  up  work  the  year  before  In  the  vil- 
lage of  the  Ngow  Tree  lives  the  widow  of  one  of  the  charter  members 
in  the  Chieng  Rai  City  Church.  She  and  her  daughter  being  the  only 
Christians  in  the  village  and  neither  of  Ihem  able  to  teach,  tney  cou'd

only|live  before  the  natives,  Inil  this  they  did  and  mightily  did  it 
testify  to  the  power  of  Christ.  On  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Crooks'  visit  last  year 
they  found  others  who  were  interested,  so  behold  their  joy  this  year 
when  they  fovnid  several  read}'  to  confess  Christ. 

In  the  new  adjustment  of  work  after  the  arrival  of  Dr.  and  Mrs. 
Dodd,  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Crooks  took  charge  of  the  work  in  the  Me  Kawn 
District,  where  there  is  a  large  Christian  community.  Dr.  Crooks 
reorganized  the  Sunday-school  and  a  great  interest  has  been  awakened. 
Over  sixty  gather  each  Sunday.  Mrs.  Crooks  kept  up  her  work  the 
iirst  part  of  the  year  as  assistant  editor  of  the  native  paper,  and  the 
latter  part  of  the  year  the  work  of  editing  the  paper  fell  to  her. 

MEDICAL. — The  Chieng  Rai  medical  department  closes 
the  year  vi^itli  a  showing  of  marked  advancement  along  all 
lines. 

Fever  was  very  prevalent  at  the  beginning  of  the  rainy  season, 
and  our  work  reached  tnany  homes  and  villages  that  had  never 
before  asked  for  foreign  medicines  and  aid.  The  buildings,  mere 
sheds,  which  we  call  a  hospital  have  been  much  overtaxed  and  we 
have  been  forced  to  put  patients  in  the  homes  of  servants  and 
on  the  dispensary  veranda.  The  hospital  patients  have  increased 
25  per  cent  over  last  year  and  the  out-patients  and  calls  10  per  cent. 
The  Government  is  using  our  medicines  more  than  ever  before.  Our 
dispensary  furnishes  the  entire  supply  of  medicines  to  the  Civil  and 
GendaiTrtes  Departments  and  considerable  of  the  Military  Depart- 
ment's annual  supply.  The  dispensary  chapel  work  has  been  kept  up 
throughout  the  year.  This  has  served  as  a  training  class  for  our 
assistants,  as  well  as  a  teaching  class  for  the  patients  and  travelers  who 
stop  at  ovir  chapel-sala  for  rest  or  to  listen  to  the  teachings.  The  new 
hospital  and  dispensary  buildings  (for  which  Dr.  Briggs  has  secured 
funds  in  America)  are  assuming  material  form  in  the  way  of  saw-logs 
and  bricks.  Thus  Dr.  Briggs  will  be  enabled  to  begin  building  opera- 
tions immediately  upon  his  return. 

In  February,  Chieng  Rai  was  favored  by  a  visit  from  H.  B. 
M.  Consul  Mr.  H.  T.  Lyle,  and  the  Station  tenders  its  hearty 
thanks  to  Mr.  Lyle  for  his  generosity  in  allowing  Dr.  Dodd 
and  family  to  occupy  the  consulate,  rent  free,  until  a  Mission 
house  could  be  prepared  for  their  habitation. 

Within  the  jurisdiction  of  Chieng  Rai  Station  there  are  five 
churches  with  a  total  membership  of  575  communicants. 
Of  these  109  were  added  during  the  year,  that  is  23  per  cent. 
gain. 

KENG-TUNG  SUBSTATION. 

The  year  opened  with  Keng-tung  still  a  regular  Station 
of  the  Mission,  having  two  resident  families,  and  its  work  in 
a  promising^condition.  The  church  roll  contained  forty- 
seven  names,  and  was  soon  increased  by  two  baptisms;  and 
a  dozen  or  more  new  converts  were  awaiting  baptism.  With 
the  re-erection  of  the  bazaar  chapel  after  the  fire,  bazaar 
preaching  was  prosecuted  with  renewed  vigor,  and  interest 
was  visibly  increasing. 


420  LAOS— NAi^. 

But  December  saw  the  departure  of  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Callender 
for  America  on  account  of  the  serious  ill  health  of  Mrs.  Callen- 
der. This  left  but  one  family,  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Dodd.  Meantime 
negotiations  had  long  been  in  progress  between  the  Board  and 
the  Baptist  Missionary  Union  and  between  the  missionaries 
of  the  two  churches  as  to  relative  rights  to  the  field.  It  being 
evident  that  agreement  could  not  be  reached,  that  the  field 
was  not  large  enough  for  both  Boards,  and  that  the  Baptists 
greatly  desired  to  remain,  our  Board  voluntarily  withdrew 
its  one  remaining  family,  transferring  it  to  Chieng  Rai,  and 
making  that  part  of  the  Keng-tung  field  which  it  was  our 
duty  to  supervise  an  out-station  work  of  Chieng  Rai.  The 
decision  was  very  hard  for  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Dodd,  for  they  had 
toiled  hard  at  Keng-tung;  but  they  accepted  the  decision 
like  good  Christians  and  moved  to  Chieng  Rai. 

People  of  all  ranks  tried  to  invent  some  way  by  which  the  Station 
could  be  saved,  and  Christians  and  non-Christians  wished  the  mission- 
aries to  allow  a  monster  petition  to  be  sent  to  America,  signed  by  the 
Sawbwa,  or  Chief  of  the  State,  the  members  of  the  Keng-tung  Court, 
officials  of  all  ranks,  and  hundreds  of  other  friends.  But  Dr.  and  Mrs. 
Dodd  discouraged  such  a  petition  as  useless,  and  accepted  the  situation. 

A  feature  of  the  eleven  days'  journey  was  the  regret  everywhere 
expressed  by  the  people  living  on  the  route  that  our  Board  was  aban- 
doning its  Keng-tung  Station.  A  number  of  non-Chris£ian  friends 
accompanied  the  party  for  the  first  half  day's  stage  and  then  bade  a 
tearful  farewell.  Usually  the  regret  was  not  based  so  much  on 
personal  ties,  but  was  rather  felt  on  account  of  losing  missionaries  who 
understood  and  spoke  their  own  language. 

The  removal  of  the  missionaries  took  away  from  the  infant 
Keng-tung  Church  twenty-five  of  its  members,  large  and 
small.  Most  of  these  have  since  been  received  into  churches 
in  Chieng  Rai  Station  proper.  Of  the  twenty-three  remaining 
members,  ten  live  in  the  Yawng  District,  seven  live  in  or  near 
Keng-tung  City,  three  in  Chieng  Hkang,  two  are  down  in 
Chieng  Rai,  and  one,  an  Indiaman,  is  studying  in  the  United 
States. 

Regular  Sunday  services  are  reported  in  two  places  in  the  M. 
Yawng  Circle,  and  one  each  in  Keng-tung,  M.  Yu  (where  we 
have  only  inquirers),  and  in  Chieng  Hkang.  So  we  may  say 
that  Keng-tung  substation  of  Chieng  Rai  consists  at  present 
of  five  out-stations.  The  number  of  believers  reported  as 
awaiting  baptism  is  about  a  dozen. 

Since  removal  of  the  missionaries  one  toiu*  has  been  taken 
covering  a  part  of  the  field.  Other  tours  will  be  made  from 
time  to  time  by  Dr.  Dodd  and  his  native  helpers. 

NAN  STATION. 

When  the  year  opened  the  missionary  company  comprised 
Dr.  and  Mrs.  Peoples,  Mr.  and  Mrs.  David  Park,  and  Mr. 


LAOS— NAN.  421 

and  Mrs.  A.  P.  Barrett.  March  25  native  boats  took  away 
Mr.  and  Mrs.  Park  on  account  of  the  prolonged  illness  of  Mrs. 
Park.  July  8  other  boats  carried  away  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Barrett, 
and  with  a  very  great  load  of  sorrow  in  Mrs.  Barrett's  suffer- 
ings. Both  women  are  improving  in  health  as  this  report 
goes  to  press,  but  with  no  present  prospect  of  being  able  to 
return  to  Laos.  We  sorrow  for  these  two  fine  young  mission- 
ary families  and  for  the  work  which  loses  them. 

As  soon  as  the  sad  tidings  reached  the  other  Stations,  nearly  e very- 
missionary  in  Lakawn  and  Chieng  Mai  volunteered  to  come  to  the 
relief  of  stricken  Nan. 

August  10,  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Taylor  and  their  two  young  daughters, 
riding  four  elephants,  came  plodding  through  mud  and  water  into 
Nan.  By  the  end  of  the  week  the  floods  came  down  in  good  earnest, 
and  thereafter  for  days  we  called  upon  one  another  in  boats  riding 
over  fences.  These  friends  left  their  important  work  at  Lakawn  in 
the  hands  of  substitutes  to  come  and  fill  the  breach  in  Nan. 

The  various  departments  of  work — church,  evangelistic, 
school  and  medical — were  carried  on  with  all  the  energy--  that 
the  circumstances  permitted,  but  such  conditions  must  cut 
in  seriously  upon  a  year's  work  and  modify  to  a  large  extent 
the  results  that  might  otherwise  be  expected. 

THE  CHURCH.— The  Church  at  Nan,  in  spite  of  frequent 
changes  of  leadership,  has  maintained  a  good  degree  of  activity 
and  spiritual  life.  It  has  raised  forty-eight  ticals  to  send  an 
evangelist  into  outlying  villages.  Fourteen  children  and 
twenty  adults  have  been  received,  making  the  adult  member- 
ship 190,  not  including  four  who  have  died. 

Two  htmdred  and  forty  ticals  have  been  contributed  for  church 
purposes,  not  including  the  sum  mentioned  above  for  evangelistic 
work.  No  report  has  yet  been  received  from  the  colony  in  Chieng 
Kam  under  the  care  of  assistant  pastor  Kam  Ai. 

The  beautiful  Hyde  Park  Memorial  Chapel  has  afforded  the  congre- 
gation a  delightful  place  of  worship.  The  building  and  the  site  have 
passed  out  of  that  state  in  which  they  were  adjudged  by  the  Siamese 
Judge  of  the  International  Court  to  be  a  disgrace  to  the  Christian 
community  When  the  weather  is  cold  the  doors  may  be  closed, 
admitting  abundant  light  for  the  conduct  of  service;  and  when  it  is 
hot  they  can  be  thrown  open,  giving  as  much  comfort  as  thotigh 
there  were  no  walls.  The  congregation  assembles  with  the  sense  of 
being  an  establishment. 

ITINERATING. — Little  itinerating  could  be  done,  as  no 
one  was  available  for  this  work  but  Mr.  Barrett,  who  was 
enabled,  however,  before  he  left  to  visit  all  the  Christian 
communities  throughout  the  province,  except  Chieng  Kam, 
and  to  consummate  the  work  of  the  medical  evangelist. 
Nan  Puny  a,  and  Ai  Pun,  a  medical  assistant,  in  the  establish- 
ment of  a  fine  new  Christian  community  at  Soap  Sai,  twenty

miles  north  of  the  city.  Twenty-three  persons  were  gath- 
ered into  this  httle  company,  with  a  number  of  others  whose 
faces  are  turned  toward  them.  They  are  planning  to  build  a 
house  of  worship  after  harvest. 

Elder  Nan  Punya  has  repeatedly  visited  all  the  Christian  colonies 
and  has  been  the  means  of  arousing  interest  in  several  new  remote 
villages.  Some  only  await  the  visit  of  a  missionary  to  be  confirmed 
in  their  purpose  to  enter  upon  a  new  life.  Notable  among  these  is 
a  fine  old  P'ya  (official)  whose  heart  seems  to  have  been  ripe  for  the 
message  the  evangelist  brought  him,  but  who  is  being  hard  pressed 
by  his  relatives  and  prominent  neighbors  to  turn  him  aside  from  his 
purpose. 

During  his  journeyings  back  and  forth,  the  elder  one  day  turned 
aside  to  visit  some  Kamoohs,  a  hill  tribe  clustered  into  small  villages 
scattered  over  the  hills  of  the  province.  He  found  them  veiy  ready 
to  listen  to  his  story,  and  anxious  to  escape  from  the  bondage  of  spirits, 
if  only  the  elder  could  assure  them  of  the  victory.  Very  few  of  these 
people  can  read;  but  they  can  all  understand  something  of  the  Laos 
language.  They  say  that  if  they  break  off  their  allegiance  with  the 
spirits,  they  must  do  so  as  villages  and  not  as  individuals.  The  elder's 
plan  is  to  put  up  a  temporary  tabernacle  at  one  of  these  centres,  and 
call  as  many  of  the  Laos  Christians  as  may  be  available  to  bring  their 
rice  and  come  for  a  week  or  ten  days,  to  teach  and  give  them  a  living 
example  of  what  it  is  to  be  the  free  subjects  of  the  Lord  of  spirits. 

Dr.  and  Mrs.  Peoples  visited  the  little  community  at  Muang 
Chung,  ten  miles  up  the  river,  several  times  during  the  year. 
They  were  stimulated  to  make  an  effort  to  secure  a  house  of 
worship.  Ninety  ticals  were  raised  by  subscription  from  the 
members  of  the  city  church  and  a  building  was  procured  for 
the  purpose. 

SCHOOLS. — Mr.  Park  was  actively  pushing  plans  for  school 
work,  enlarging  the  Mission  compound  to  ample  proportions 
for  school  purposes,  enlisting  the  interest  of  friends  in  America, 
and  procuring  practical  industrial  appliances  to  be  established 
in  connection  with  the  school. 

The  Siamese  Commissioner  of  the  province  was  vitally  interested, 
and  he  proposed  that  Mr.  Park  take  over  the  higher  departments  of 
the  Government  schools  of  the  city  in  connection  with  the  Mission 
school,  and  he  would  provide  a  competent  salary  for  himself  and  the 
necessary  assistant  teachers,  and  would  secure  him  the  means  to  erect 
suitable  buildings  for  the  beginnings  of  the  enterprise.  But  within 
a  few  weeks  Mrs.  Park's  illness  compelled  Mr.  Park  to  leave,  and  P'ya 
Amoraridhi  was  succeeded  by  another  ruler  "who  knew  not  Joseph," 
and  the  plan  was  not  consummated. 

Upon  the  departure  of  Mr.  Park,  Mr.  Barrett  took  charge  of  the 
school.  He  quickly  got  hold  of  the  boys.  Admirable  progress  was 
being  made  and  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Barrett  were  beginning  to  realize  that 
they  had  found  their  real  place,  when  the  calamity  befell  them  that 
broke  off  their  missionary  careers  and  cast  a  gloom  over  the  school. 

Several  of  the  pupils  are  the  sons  of  officials  and  nobles.  These 
joined  the  school  for  the  sake  of  English,  the  study  of  which  is  very 
popular  just  now;  but  they  soon  discovered  that  there  was  a  notable 


LAOS— NAN.  423 

difference  in  their  proojess  in  other  departments  as  well,  from  being 
under  the  care  of  inen  whose  instincts  for  study  and  discipline  had 
been  a  matter  of  inheritance  for  generations. 

At  the  urgent  request  of  their  mothers,  Mrs.  Park  undertook 
the  care  of  a  small  class  of  girls  from  the  families  of  the  ruling 
classes.  This  class  was  the  pride  of  the  city.  Though  Mrs. 
Park  was  able  to  continue  it  but  for  a  short  time,  the  effort 
awakened  enthusiasm  in  the  community  for  the  education  of 
girls. 

MEDICAL  WORK. — Besides  the  medical  work  at  the  dis- 
pensary, the  hospital  and  the  care  of  the  missionaries.  Dr. 
Peoples  has  the  care  of  the  Army  Post  of  400  soldiers  in  the 
north  city,  the  Gendsarmery,  the  prisoners  of  the  city  jail, 
and  the  civil  officials  of  the  Government.  The  medical  inter- 
ests of  the  post  involve  a  visit  about  every  alternate  day,  or 
as  often  as  he  can-  find  time  to  make  the  jotirney  of  two  miles. 
In  compensation  for  this  service  the  Government  pays  a  small 
salary,  and  Dr.  Peoples  furnishes,  at  ordinary  dispensing 
prices,  the  necessary  medicines,  except  those  that  are  supplied 
to  the  army  by  the  Government. 

Last  season  six  men  were  trained  in  vaccinating,  and  also  in  the 
use  of  simple  medical  remedies.  These  men  were  employed  by  the 
Government  for  seven  weeks  and  they,  with  the  assistants  at  the  dis- 
pensary, vaccinated  1,500  children.  A  larger  force  of  men  will  be 
employed  next  year. 

The  hospital  building  contains  three  large  wards,  20  by  21  feet, 
one  of  which  has  to  be  used  as  an  operating  room.  The  two  wards 
were  full,  sometimes  to  overflowing,  except  for  about  six  weeks  during 
the  heaviest  rains.  Some  deaths  frightened  the  people  for  a  time, 
and  the  place  got  the  reputation  of  having  too  many  loose  spirits 
knocking  about.  Now  that  the  rains  are  over  and  the  sun  has  come 
out,  courage  is  reviving  and  the  hospital  is  filling  up  again. 

The  work  of  the  dispensary  is  growing  from  year  to  year. 
The  new  building  has  been  occupied  since  May. 

The  evangelistic  influence  of  this  department  is  substantial.  The 
four  medical  assistants  are  of  the  leading  men  in  the  church;  two 
of  them  are  elders  and  one  a  deacon.  The  major  part  of  the  time  of  one 
of  these  men,  Nan  Punya,  is  given  to  direct  Christian  work.  His 
services  are  the  special  contribution  of  the  medical  department  to 
evangelism.  When  out  on  tours  he  makes  excellent  use  of  his  medical 
skill.  At  the  present  time  he  is  at  work,  with  his  coat  off,  his  loin 
cloth  up  tight,  in  the  water  up  to  the  knees,  directing  the  excavation 
of  a  small  island  in  the  river  that  deflects  the  current  so  as  to  endanger 
the  compound  of  the  church,  and  that  of  the  International  Court,  as  well 
as  of  several  other  properties.  The  gravel  from  this  work  he  is  having 
deposited  at  the  foot  of  the  landing,  to  be  drawn  up  by  a  road 
scraper  attached  to  a  btiffalo,  to  improve  the  roads  about  the  Mission 
compounds. 

The  library  of  Laos  Christian  literature  stands  in  a  con- 


424  LAOS— LAKAWN. 

spicuous  place  in  the  dispensary,  and  these  books  with  maga- 
zines and  illustrated  papers  are  on  the  table  for  patients 
and  visitors.  A  number  of  the  good  men  in  the  church  have 
been  brought  to  Christ  through  the  influence  of  the  medical 
department. 

LAKAWN  STATION. 

The  Station  writes  of  the  pleasure  of  welcoming  back  in 
February  "dear  Father  Wilson,"  who  had  been  absent  for 
several  months  on  a  health  trip.  The  missionaries  say  that 
if  the  Lord  will,  they  desire  that  his  presence,  his  prayers  and 
his  fellowship  may  be  with  them  to  the  end. 

The  year  brought  much  sickness  to  the  Mission  as  a  whole  and  La- 
kawn  Station  experienced  a  full  share  of  it.  In  February,  Mrs.  Taylor 
had  to  undergo  a  serious  surgical  operation.  It  was  entirely  successful, 
but  her  health  has  not  yet  fully  recovered.  Dr.  Taylor  too  has  been  in 
poor  health  during  inost  of  the  year.  He  has  indeed  struggled  on, 
doing  full  work,  but  doing  it  often  when  he  should  have  been  in  bed. 
In  August,  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Taylor  left  for  Nan,  as  noted  in  the  report  for 
that  Station.  In  April,  Miss  Van  Vranken  was  laid  aside  by  illness, 
and  when  convalescence  came  in  July  she  went  to  Chieng  Mai  for 
change  and  rest.  Dr.  Wilson  was  also  in  poor  health  for  several 
months. 

In  October  Dr.  Hansen  left  on  furlough.  Mrs.  Hansen  was  in 
America  already,  and  her  health  is  so  impaired  that  she  will  probably 
not  be  able  to  return. 

Thus  the  work  has  been  very  much  broken,  and  the  results  of  the 
year's  labor  appear  much  smaller  than  we  could  have  wished  to  report. 

CITY  CHURCH  AND  OUT-STATIONS.— The  city  church 
was  under  the  care  of  Dr.  Taylor  until  he  left,  aided  when 
need  arose  by  Dr.  Wilson  and  Mr.  Gillies.  Dr.  Wilson  has 
regularly  taught  his  Bible  class  since  his  return.  In  the 
preaching  services  also  and  in  other  parts  of  the  church  work 
he  has  been  enabled  to  assist.  The  regular  services  of  the 
church  have  been  maintained  throughout  the  year.  The 
Sunday-school  in  large  part  and  the  afternoon  service  wholly 
has  been  conducted  by  the  natives.  During  part  of  the  rainy 
season  Mr.  Gillies  taught  on  Sunday  afternoons  a  class  of  men 
in  Old  Testament  history.  The  attendance  on  church  ser- 
vices has  on  the  whole  been  fairly  good. 

The  Lakawn  Church  includes  three  out-stations — Muang  Nyow, 
Chaa  Home  and  Lampang  Kang.  The  first  of  these  was  in  charge  of 
Dr.  Taylor,  the  latter  two  under  Mr.  Gillies.  All  three  have  been 
visited  both  by  missionaries  and  elders.  Each  has  had  a  few  additions 
to  the  membership.  Chaa  Home  and  Muang  Nyow  are  ready  to  be 
cjrganized  into  distinct  chiirches,  and  as  Presbytery  has  already  given 
its  sanction,  the  organization  will  soon  ])e  effected.  Both  are  prepar- 
ing material  to  build  cliapels. 

In  connection  with  Lakawn  Church  are  also  a  number  of  scattered 
isolated  Christian  families,  living  in  various  districts  remote  from  any 


LAOS— LAKAWN.  42.5 

Christian  communities.  All  these  have  been  visited  and  we  are  grate- 
ful to  report  they  have  nearly  all,  in  the  midst  of  many  temptations 
and  discouragements,  maintained  their  Christian  life. 

Miss  Carothers  has  been  doing  evangelistic  work  among 
both  Christian  and  non-Christian  women  in  the  city  and 
neighborhood.  She  reports  that  eighty-one  women  were 
enrolled  in  classes  and  taught  in  their  own  homes  by  three 
Bible  women  under  her  supervision. 

Several  of  the  women  learning  to  read  are  non-Christian  wives  of 
Christian  men.  A  number  by  the  very  fact  of  learning  to  read  have 
been  led  to  take  an  interest  in  the  Gospel  Several  applicants  could 
not  be  received  into  the  classes,  because  the  Bible  women  had  already 
as  much  work  as  they  could  do.  During  the  coming  year  Miss  Caro- 
thers hopes  plans  may  be  made  for  definite  instruction  of  the  Bible 
women  and  for  enlargement  of  the  scope  of  this  form  of  evangelizing. 
The  work  has  been  hitherto  supported  by  the  Van  Santvoord  Hospital 
and  Dispensary. 

There  is  everywhere  and  always  some  opportunity  for  doing 
evangelistic  work  among  the  Laos  people.  Every  member  of 
the  Station  therefore  has  had  some  part  in  this  work.  How- 
ever, the  only  member  of  the  Station  who  was  able  to  give 
any  large  amount  of  time  to  it  was  Mr.  Gillies.  The  bulk  of 
this  work  has  been  done  by  native  evangelists. 

From  two  to  eight  men  have  been  busy  with  evangelistic  work  in 
various  parts  of  the  province.  Most  of  these  men  have  shown  a  true 
evangelistic  spirit.  One  particularly — Elder  Noi  Wong  of  Muang 
Nyow — has  been  pre-eminent  in  his  devotion.  In  hours  of  discourage- 
ment, the  thought  has  often  come  to  the  totiring  missionar3^  were  it 
only  the  faith,  the  prayers,  the  unfailing  devotion  and  perseverance 
of  Elder  Noi  Wong,  Lakawn's  day  of  salvation  mvi,st  surely  come. 

Mr.  Gillies  made  two  long  tours  of  about  three  months  each 
in  the  course  of  the  year. 

These  tours  included  work  among  the  out-village  Christians,  but 
a  large  part  of  the  time  was  given  to  preaching  the  Gospel  to  the 
Buddhist  community,  in  conjunction  of  course  with  native  helpers 
who  were  at  the  same  time  tmder  instruction  of  the  missionary.  In 
the  midst  of  many  ups  and  downs  in  this  work  of  carrying  the  Gospel 
from  village  to  village  among  the  non-Christian  people,  the  missionary 
was  cheered  by  one  fact  in  particular-^never  before  had  he  been  able 
to  preach  so  clearly  and  fully  the  cross  of  Christ;  never  before  had  he 
heard  so  many  expressions  on  the  part  of  the  hearers  indicating  an 
intelligent  apprehension  of  this  great  central  fact  of  the  Gospel. 

Before  the  opening  of  the  touring  season  there  was  a  spirit 
of  prayer  and  expectancy. 

One  of  the  evangelists  went  to  a  district  where  he  had  formerly 
lived  and  where  he  had  fotmd  his  wife.  He  is  a  young  man,  converted 
in  the  Lakawn  Hospital  about  iour  years  ago.  He  now  carried  the 
Gospel  to  his  wife's  relatives  and  his  former  acquaintances  in  that 


426  LAOS— LAKAWN. 

district.  Struck  with  the  remarkable  change  in  the  man's  own  life, 
they  gave  heed  to  his  message.  Six  families — the  parents  and  all  their 
children — accepted  Christ,  the  father  in  each  case  being  able  to  read 
and  write.  When  the  young  evangelist  arriv'ed  among  them  he  had 
alread)'  exhausted  his  stipply  of  books.  So  he  took  his  own  Bible,  tore 
off  the  binding,  and  divided  it  among  the  various  households.  Return- 
ing to  the  cit}'  he  gave  a  joyful  account  of  this  new  work  to  the  mission- 
ar}^;  among  other  things  he  related  that  some  of  the  converts  had 
possessed  magic  books  which  had  cost  in  some  cases  as  high  as  60 
ticals  ($23  gold);  but  these  they  cheerfully  consented  to  destroy. 
One  man  had  agreed  with  a  neighbor  to  work  a  rice  field.  Having 
become  a  Christian,  he  informed  the  owner  of  the  field  that  he  was  still 
prepared  to  carry  out  the  bargain,  but  that  he  could  not  work  on 
Sundays.  The  latter  insisted  that  he  should  work  on  Sundays  and 
rest  on  Buddhist  sacred  daj's.  The  new  Christian  promptly  surren- 
dered the  field,  but  was  soon  able  to  secure  another  which  he  could 
work  under  Christian  conditions. 

This  little  body  of  new  converts  have  been  under  the  care  and 
instruction  of  Nan  Pan,  the  evangelist,  since  their  conversion,  and  he 
sends  most  cheering  accounts  of  their  progress.  We  regard  them  as 
part  of  the  fruit  of  many  prayers,  and  we  hope  that  the  work  here 
commenced  is  destined  to  grow  to  large  proportions. 

EDUCATIONAL  WORK.— The  boys'  school  was  seriously 
interfered  with  by  work  of  construction  on  the  Kenneth  Mac- 
kenzie Memorial  building  and  the  lack  of  anything  like  decent 
accommodation  in  the  old  schoolhouse. 

The  Spring  term  included  both  day-school  and  boarding  depart- 
ments, the  number  enrolled  being  fiftj'-eight.  During  this  tenn.  Miss 
Van  Vranken  had  charge  of  the  teaching.  She  got  good  hold  of  the 
boys  and  did  excellent  work.  The  Fall  term  consisted  of  a  small  day- 
school  for  Christian  lads  in  and  around  the  city.  Twenty-three  little 
boys  were  enrolled  and  an  average  attendance  of  seventeen  was  main- 
tained. Four  of  the  more  advanced  boys  were  sent  to  the  Prince 
Royal's  College,  Chieng  Mai. 

In  the  girls'  school,  Miss  Carothers  reports  an  enrollment  for 
the  Spring  term  of  eighty-five  and  for  the  Fall  term  of  sixty- 
five. 

For  the  first  time  in  the  history  of  the  school,  all  books  and  slates 
have  been  sold  to  the  pupils.  It  is  a  great  improvement  over  the  old 
system  of  loaning  and  giving  away.  Almost  no  books  have  been  de- 
stroyed and  the  girls  find  it  a  pleasure  to  own  their  books  and  other 
school  material. 

Tuition  was  raised  and  the  parents  have  responded  fairly  well. 
The  receipts  have  been  larger  than  ever  before.  Three  weaving  looms 
have  been  kept  at  work. 

There  is  an  increasing  demand  for  instruction  in  English  and  Siam- 
ese. We  have  an  excellent  Siamese  teacher.  About  half  of  the  girls 
studied   English. 

Ten  girls  have  confessed  Christ  during  the  year.  One 
Christian  parent  wrote  sa3dng  he  was  pleased  above  expres- 
sion that  his  daughter  had  been  taught  much  of  the  Bible  and 
also  taught  to  pi»ay.     A  non-Christian  father  of  rank  begged 


Laos— PRE.  42* 

to  have  his  children  taught  the  Child's  Catechism  in  Siamese, 
because,  he  said,  he  "wished  them  to  learn  how  to  pray  to  our 
Saviour  Jesus  Christ." 

Hitherto  in  Lakawn  the  boarding  schools  have  been  the  only  schools. 
Last  March,  however,  committees  were  appointed  by  Presbytery  to 
organize  primary  schools  in  the  out-stations.  The  committee  ap- 
I)ointed  at  Chaa  Home  started  a  school  this  year.  There  was  an  attend- 
ance of  about  twenty.  Several  of  the  pupils  came  from  non-Christian 
homes. 

MEDICAL  WORK. — The  medical  department  continued 
in  care  of  Dr.  C.  C.  Hansen  until  his  departure  in  October. 
He  reports  successful  work  in  the  Van  Santvoord  Hospital 
wards,  clinics  and  outvisiting  departments.     He  writes; 

Every  hour  of  the  day  and  many  hours  of  the  night  have  been  given 
to  the  work  for  which  I  was  appointed.  The  hospital  wards  have  been 
crowded  with  patients  at  nearly  all  times.  Two  hundred  and  twenty- 
one  operations  have  been  performed,  and,  roughly  estiinated,  the  num- 
ber of  patients  seen  reaches  10,000  during  the  year. 

"The  story  of  my  inedical  and  surgical  service  is  written  in  the 
lives  of  those  to  whom  I  have  been  given  the  opportunity  to  bring  heal- 
ing and  relief  from  suffering.  The  remembrance  of  grateful  hearts 
and  smiling  faces  will  always  remain  with  me.  I  thank  the  Board  for 
this  opportimity  of  service,  my  fellow-workers  for  their  courtesy  and 
encouragement,  the  friends  at  home  for  their  generous  support,  and 
finally  I  thank  God  for  the  privilege  of  giving  my  life  in  this  service." 

Daily  worship  and  Bible  study  have  been  carried  on  in  the 
hospital  by  Miss  Carothers.  The  dispensary  and  hospital 
assistants  have  done  steady,  faithful  work  in  preaching  the 
Gospel  to  the  patients.

This  Station  has  been  virtually  closed  this  year  also,  as 
depletion  of  the  Mission  force  made  it  impossible  for  the  Mission 
to  assign  resident  missionaries  to  it.  The  work,  however, 
has  been  continued  as  well  as  possible  by  native  helpers, 
superintended  by  Lakawn  Station,  one  of  whose  members 
has  made  occasional  visits.  We  are  glad  to  report  that  since

niSSlONS  IN  SOUTH  AMERICA. 

BRAZIL. 

The  well-informed  authority  on  affairs  in  Brazil,  whose 
annual  survey  of  the  field  has  been  quoted  in  previous  reports, 
writes  regarding  the  present  conditions  as  follows: 

As  never  before,  the  attention  of  the  political  and  commercial  world 
has  been  attracted  to  Brazil  and  other  South  American  States.  Brazil, 
by  its  size,  its  rich  natural  resources  and  easy  approach,  naturally 
receives  the  largest  share.  Latin  Europe  has  sent  us  during  the  past 
year  some  of  her  cleverest  politicians,  scientists  and  financiers,  some 
of  whom  have  delivered  courses  of  lectures  on  a  great  variety  of  sub- 
iects  in  the  principal  cities  of  the  republic.  The  American  millionaire 
has  touched  here  with  his  3'acht,  Cook's  excursions  have  invaded  the 
country  and  the  globe-trotter  has  included  Brazil  in  his  itinerary. 
Representatives  of  some  of  our  great  universities  have  visited  us 
officially.  The  great  industrial  firms  of  Germany,  France  and  Belgium 
have  established  agencies  here  and  send  their  drummers  through  the 
country.  Large  sums  of  money  have  been  and  are  being  invested  by 
English,  French,  German.  Belgian  and  American  capitalists  in  long 
lines  of  railways  throtigh  an  unpeopled  country  and  in  the  not  distant 
future  we  may  expect  to  see  the  valley  of  the  Amazon  and  the  La 
Plata  system  connected  by  rail.  It  has  been  a  year  of  feverish  ac- 
tivity. Under  a  high  protective  tariff  native  manufactures  have  come 
into  an  unnatural  existence,  usually  with  foreign  capital,  oppressing 
the  consumer  and  rendering  life  more  expensive  The  large  exports 
of  rubber  and  coffee  give  to  Brazil  an  apparent  balance  of  trade  in  her 
favor.  The  enormous  external  debt,  however,  makes  a  real  balance 
against  her. 

In  the  middle  Southern  States  and  to  some  extent  in  the  extreme 
North  there  is  an  increasing  tide  of  emigration,  most  noticeable  in 
S.  Paulo;  but  in  the  middle  coast  States  and  those  of  the  interior,  like 
Goyaz  and  Matto  Grosso,  there  is  extreme  poverty  and  a  diminishing 
population,  especially  in  Bahia,  Sergipe  and  Ceara,  where  they  have 
the  prolonged  droughts.  So  we  rriay  say  that  Brazil  progresses,  but 
as  a  whole  does  not  prosper. 

S.  Paulo  is  the  "banner"  State  and  attracts  more  attention  than 
any  other.  Its  growth  in  wealth  and  population  is  greater  than  that 
of  any  other  State  of  the  republic.  It  possesses  more  manufacturing 
establishments  than  all  the  other  States  combined.  The  development 
of  its  agricultural  and  mineral  resources  is  also  in  advance  of  all  otheni 

The  valorization  scheme  with  the  fixing  the  rate  of  exchange  at  i^d. 
depends  chiefly  upon  S.  Paulo;  though  Rio  and  Minas  were  included 
in  the  deal.  The  attempt  to  protect  the  coffee  planter  by  buying  and 
holding  8,000,000  bags  of  the  surplus,  while  against  all  notions  of 
sound  finance  and  political  economy,  was  really  only  a  choice  of  evils. 
It  saved  temporarily  the  great  coffee  planting  interest  and  will  be 
carried  out  at  whatever  cost.  The  heavy  loss,  if  there  be  one,  which 
no  one  doubts,  will  fall  upon  the  whole  State,  which  is  able  to  stand  it. 
This  is  an  ovitline  of  the  economic  status. 

Politically,  there  is  little  progress  toward  a  real  republic.  The 
country  is  still  in  the  hands  of  political  "bosses"  and  cliques,  inherited 
<  431 


432  BRAZIL. 

from  the  Empire.  The  people  are  not  consulted  as  to  who  shall  repre- 
sent them.  There  is  usually  only  one  candidate  indicated  by  the 
bosses.  No  great  man  has  yet  arisen  to  give  shape  and  character 
to  a  true  democracy,  where  the  people  are  consulted. 

The  most  notable  movement  and  the  one  that  most  profoundly 
affects  society  is  the  activity  of  the  Roman  Church.  The  larger 
parishes 'of  this  State  have  been  made  into  bishoprics,  and  no  less  than 
nine  new  bishops  have  been  sent  to  Rome  for  consecration.  An 
archbishop  has  been  made  for  S.  Paulo — a  learned  Brazilian  who 
made  an  excellent  translation  of  the  New  Testament ,  but  loaded  it 
with  notes.  He  is  an  excitable,  intolerant,  ultramontane  Jesuit, 
whose  despotic  rule  is  something  S.  Paulo  has  never  before  seen,  and 
which  is  sure  to  bring  a  second  reaction. 

The  following  reports  of  the  two  Missions  cover  the  work 
that  is  under  the  direct  supervision  of  the  Board,  but  the 
relations  of  the  Mackenzie  College  and  the  educational  work 
in  Sao  Paulo,  which  are  under  separate  Boards  of  Trustees, 
are  so  close  to  the  work  of  the  Missions  and  so  bound  still  to 
the  Board  by  the  financial  aid  given  by  it,  that  some  account 
of  the  College  should  be  included.     The  President  reports: 

We  are  the  only  institution  of  Higher  Education,  Protestant  or 
Roman  Catholic,  in  all  Brazil,  wholly  independent  of  government 
supervision  or  patronage,  standing  entirely  upon  the  merits  of  our 
work  and  the  character  of  the  men  and  women  who  go  out  from  us. 
We  are  outspoken  as  to  the  Protestant  Christian  principles  that  under- 
lie all  our  work;  at  the  same  time  we  endeavor  to  give  a  scientific 
character  to  the  course  of  stud3\  accentuating  the  mathematical  side 
and  keeping  pace,  as  far  as  our  means  will  permit,  with  educational 
methods  and  processes  in  the  United  States.  Our  system  is  closely 
graded  and  the  parts  correlated  so  as  to  educate  as  well  as  instruct 
cultivating  the  whole  individual,  doing  our  best  to  produce  in  the 
finished  product  well-informed  and  disciplined,  trod-fearing,  liberty- 
loving  men  and  women.  The  fierce  anger  and  bitter  opposition  of  the 
ultramontane  priesthood  is  rather  flattering  to  us  and  does  us  no  harm. 

Now  as  to  our  work.  The  College  has  had  a  most  prosperous  year 
with  a  total  enrollment  of  154,  but  has  been  beset  with  difficulty  to 
adjust  the  large  number  of  students  to  the  limited  space  we  have, 
and  to  supply  the  missing  units  in  our  teaching  force. 

This  year's  enrollment  in  school  and  college  was  797.  From  the 
college  we  graduated  a  class  of  seven  in  civil  engineering,  nine  from 
the  commercial  course,  and  thirty-two  from  the  gymnasial  course, 
ten  being  young  women  from  the  American  School.  The  first  place 
was  held  by  one  of  our  Protestant  girls. 

In  the  day-school  the  total  registration  for  the  year  was  505  pupils 
of  the  following  nationalities:  Brazilians,  305;  Italians,  92;  Germans, 
26;  Portuguese,  19;  English,  18;  French,  10;  Syrians,  13;  Americans, 
8;  other  nationalities,  14.  Of  these  96  were  free  pupils,  49  paid  at 
reduced  prices,  and  360  paid  the  full  price,  365  were  boys  and  140 
girls;  219  primary  pupils,  68  intermediates,  and  218  were  in  the 
grammar  grades;  305  were  of  declared  Catholic  parents,  148  Pro- 
testants, and  52  of  diifferent  faiths.

,^The  Central  Brazil  Mission  has  suffered  heavily  from  resig- 
nations in  recent  years.  First,  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Finley  were 
obliged  to  return  on  account  of  Mrs.  Finley 's  health  and  the 
necessity  of  the  education  of  their  children;  then  Miss  Cory 
was  called  home;  then  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Eells  were  obliged  to 
leave  on  account  of  the  health  of  Mrs.  Eells;  Miss  McPherson 
was  transferred  to  the  Southern  Brazil  Mission — the  transfer 
to  take  effect  on  her  return  to  Brazil  from  furlough,  in  May, 
1909 — and  lastly  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Chamberlain  have  had  to  leave- 
the  field  on  account  of  Mr.  Chamberlain's  health  and  the  seri- 
ous illness  of  the  children.  Mrs.  McCall  and  Mrs.  Waddell 
also  have  remained  temporaril}^  in  the  United  States,  while 
their  husbands  have  gone  back  to  the  field  alone.  It  is  hoped 
that  the  new  furlough  arrangements  which  have  been  adopted 
will  help  to  preserve  the  health  of  the  missionaries  in  what  is 
practically  a  tropical  climate.     The  report  states; 

The  many  burdens  laid  upon  the  hearts  and  tiine  of  the  missionaries 
cut  seriously  into  their  working  power,  and  though  the  work  of  grace 
going  on  in  the  field  at  large  shows  no  signs  of  diminution,  but  rather 
extends  in  area  and  intensifies  in  force,  the  harvest  gathered  has  been 
limited  by  the  sheer  inability  of  the  workers  to  reach  all  the  points 
and  to  receive  those  waiting  to  profess  their  faith.     At  the  same  time 

433 


434  CENTRAL  BRAZIL— ESTANCI A. 

lack  of  sufficient  oversight  has  led  to  disorders  and  irregularities  in 
some  groups  and  opened  the  door  to  some  cases  of  backsUding.  The 
Mission  needs  at  once  three  evangelists  to  replace  the  workers  who  leave 
the  field.  As  these  will  all  work  from  the  first  in  the  interior  where 
health  has  ordinarily  been  good  (the  coast  stations  having  become 
Brazilian  parishes),  it  is  felt  that  they  will  take  no  special  risk. 

In  spite  of  the  depletion  of  its  force  the  Mission  has  been  obliged 
to  extend  its  stakes. 

Insufficient  rains  have  resulted  in  a  general  shortage  of 
crops,  with  high  prices,  so  that  there  has  been  much  suffer- 
ing. The  relations  between  the  Presbytery  and  the  Mission 
of  the  Brazilian  Church  have  been  excellent.  There  has 
been  no  friction,  but  much  mutual  aid  and  support.  The 
Brazilian  ministers  have  cared  actively  and  efficiently  for  the 
work  in  the  parishes  under  their  charge.  The  Church  in 
Bahia  has  made  improvements  in  its  buildings  during  the  3^ear, 
putting  in  a  good  ceiling  and  electric  lights,  and  has  now  an 
excellent  audience  room  and  is  nearly  free  from  debt.  Canni- 
vieiras  is  the  strongest  congregation  of  the  Presbytery,  and  is 
rapidly  approaching  self-support.  In  Cachoeira  the  church 
has  been  rebuilt  and  paid  for,  and  the  pledges  of  the  congre- 
gation all  met. 

VILLA  NOVA  DA  RAINHA. 

EVANGELISTIC  WORK.— Mr.  Chamberlain  has  traveled 
during  203  days  of  the  year  a  total  distance  of  3,915  miles. 
The  number  of  days  includes  the  delays  of  from  one  to  ten 
days  with  the  various  outlying  congregations. 

He  has  baptized  thirty  children,  performed  three  marriage 
ceremonies,  celebrated  the  Lord's  Supper  with  different  groups 
on  eleven  occasions,  and  received  by  profession  of  faith  twenty- 
four  adults.  Throughout  the  109  days  and  1,690  miles  he 
reports  varied  experiences.  He  was  repulsed  in  two  places 
which  had  already  been  visited  several  times,  but  for  the  most 
part  found  a  general  awakening  and  seeking  after  the  truth 
where  work  had  already  been  done,  and  the  usual  distrust  of 
our  motives  where  our  work  is  entirely  unknown. 

ESTANCIA. 

This  field  has  had  a  most  prosperous  year.  It  was  the  most 
difficult  field  in  the  Mission — a  region  whence  all  the  young  and 
active  emigrated.  The  families,  long  settled  in  the  same 
homes,  were  all  intermarried,  and  the  whole  clan  influence 
could  be  brought  to  bear  on  anyone  who  seemed  to  lean  to- 
ward Christ's  people.  For  years,  with  untiring  patience, 
Mr.  Bixler  rode  and  visited,  preached  and  conversed  all 
through    the    district.     By    and    by    the    "Living    Epistle" 


CENTRAL  BRAZIL— LENCOES.  435 

became  known  and  read  of  all  men,  and  confidence  took  the 
place  of  hatred  and  distrust.  Then  the  harvest  began. 
This  year  thirty-nine  have  professed  their  faith — good  solid 
citizens,  people  of  worth. 

The  spiritual  condition  of  the  members,  taken  as  a  whole, 
is  good,  and  the  promise  of  future  progress  encouraging. 
Preaching  services  were  held  during  the  year  at  thirty  different 
places.  Some  of  these  were  visited  once,  some  twice,  some 
three  times,  and  where  the  work  was  older  as  high  as  four 
times. 

* 
LENCOES. 

This  field  had  but  four  months'  work  during  the  year. 
Mr.  Waddell  spent  December,  1907-January,  1908,  in  visiting 
some  of  the  congregations  and  especially  in  a  trip  to  a  new 
district  on  the  Rio  de  Contas,  and  Mr.  McCall  spent  October- 
November,  1908,  in  a  visit  to  part  of  the  field.  They  received 
twenty -three  members  b}^  confession  of  faith,  and  the  Rev. 
Jose  Ozias  Gongalves  on  two  visits  to  Sao  Joao  do  Paraguassu 
received  six  more.     Mr.  McCall  writes: 

A  sad  thing  happened  at  Pao  de  Pilao,  where  we  have  three  mem- 
bers. I  delayed  there  several  days  to  rest  up  the  animals  and  found 
some  interest.  I  preached  four  nights  to  small  but  interested  audi- 
ences. On  the  last  night  we  had  some  sixty-five  present,  and  while  the 
attention  on  the  part  of  many  was  all  that  could  be  desired,  one  young 
man  caused  some  disturbance  by  his  remarks  and  general  misdemeanor 
during  the  service.  At  the  close  of  the  service  he  remarked  to  one  of 
the  believers  that  I  might  be  able  to  mesmerize  and  deceive  the  crowd, 
but  he  at  least  would  not  be  taken  in  by  me.  He  had  not  gone  400 
yards  from  the  house  when  he  shouted  for  help,  saying  he  had  been 
bitten  by  a  snake.  Some  ran  to  his  aid,  but  he  died  in  their  hands  a 
few  minutes  later.  It  must  have  been  some  heart  affection,  as  there 
were  no  signs  of  a  snake-bite  to  be  found  on  the  body.  I  tried  to 
explain  it  from  natural  causes,  and  said  I  did  not  believe  it  was  a 
punishment  from  God,  but  it  is  difficult  to  get  these  superstitious 
people  to  view  it  in  any  other  light. 

SAO  JOAO  DO  PARAGUASSU. 

Miss  Williamson's  work  in  Sao  Joao  do  Paraguassu  is  most 
noteworthy.  It  may  be  considered,  especially  on  the  side  of 
the  work  among  women  and  children,  as  equivalent  to  the 
work  that  would  be  done  by  a  resident  Brazilian  pastor. 
Her  fine  presence,  excellent  Portuguese  and  care  as  an  exposi- 
tor make  her  a  most  acceptable  teacher  of  audiences,  while 
her  friendliness  and  courtesy  have  "taken  the  town."  The 
foundations  of  this  congregation  are  most  solid.  One  of  the 
boys,  the  son  of  a  leading  merchant,  who  was  studying  in 
Bahia,  professed  his  faith  there,  and  has  gained  his  father's 
consent  to  study  for  the  ministry. 


436  CENTRAL  BRAZIL— PONTE  NOVA. 

Miss  Williamson  reports :  •  '^ 

In  September  we  opened  a  church  missionary  society,  each  member 
keeping  a  mite  bag.  Begixn  among  the  members  and  no  invitation 
being  given  to  anyone,  to  my  astonishment  by  the  second  meeting  five 
new  members  were  received  at  their  own  request,  among  them  the  two 
principal  merchants,  each  bringing  his  contributions.  Within  safe 
margins,  the  society  has  pledged  itself  to  a  small  monthly  contribu- 
tion to  Missoes  Nacionaes  and  some  other  branch  of  the  home  work. 

During  the  year  one  of  the  Church  members,  Sr.  Americo,  because 
,of  his  absolute  refusal  to  support  himself  and  by  his  reckless  conver- 
sation on  the  stibject  of  religion,  was  so  severely  criticised  by  the 
people  of  the  town  that  he  left,  saying  that  religion  was  proving 
injurious  to  his  lungs,  and  that  if  a  doctor  should  corroborate  this 
view  of  the  case  he  would  immediately  abandon  religion.  In  a  letter 
to  me  later  he  professed  himself  still  a  Christian,  and  has  been  heard  of 
at  Catulis  as  directing  services. 

Mr.  Chamberlain  visited  the  San  Francisco  field,  going  to 
that  part  of  the  field  which  contained  groups  of  believers. 
Of  these  groups  he  found  ten,  all  growing  in  grace  and  num- 
bers, despite  the  fact  that  none  had  been  visited  for  the  past 
sixteen  months  and  the  greater  part  not  for  two  years.  Sev- 
eral members  were  received  and  many  inquirers  enrolled. 

SCHOOLS.— Dr.  Waddell  reports: 

Of  all  the  old  mission  supported  schools,  only  four  remain  this  year. 
Of  these  one  is  the  Mission's  Central  Normal  School  at  Ponte  Nova. 
Besides  these  we  count  a  roll  of  nineteen  schools,  mostly  small  but 
entirely  supported  by  the  patrons.  Our  effort  is  to  put  a  school  of 
the  primary  grade  within  the  means  of  every  group  of  believers,  and 
to  put  high  school  and  normal  training  within  reach  of  every  "lad 
and  lass  o'  pairts."  This  we  are  accomplishing.  When  it  is  realized 
that  an  expenditure  of  less  than  $1,400  on  the  part  of  the  Mission  called 
out  an  expenditure  of  $7,000  on  the  part  of  the  patrons,  it  will  be 
admitted  that  the  new  system  produces  results.  Most  of  these  schools 
are  ephemeral,  but  each  one  trains  a  group  of  children  and  creates 
new  aspirations  in  some  neighborhood.  Several  new  schools  were 
founded  during  the  year.     None  stopped. 

The  23  schools  report  29  teachers  and  414  pupils. 

PONTE  NOVA. 

During  Dr.  Waddell's  absence,  Mr.  Johnson,  though  still 
working  on  the  language,  took  charge.  During  Dr.  Waddell's 
visit  home  the  financial  arrangements  were  made  for  the 
purchase  of  the  Faxenda.  The  plantation  is  ten  miles  long, 
by  about  three-fourths  of  a  mile  in  width,  containing  4,600 
acres  of  excellent  land,  500  in  fine  pasture,  the  rest  in  wood- 
land. A  river  with  a  low-water  prism  of  fifty  feet  and  three 
miles  of  current  crosses  the  plantation  which  extends  to  the 
water-shed  on  both  sides.  One  hundred  acres  of  land  is 
irrigable.     There  is  a  fine  water-power.     The  house  accom- 


CENTRAL  BRAZIL— STATISTICS.  437 

modates  our  present  household  of  twenty-five  to  thirty. 
Fences,  corrals,  etc.,  are  good.  The  plantation  has  Hmestone, 
timber,  firewood,  sand,  and  brick  clay  in  abundance.  The 
Brazilian  Church  will  stock  it  with  cattle.  When  stocked 
the  monthly  cost  per  pupil  will  not  exceed  three  dollars.  All 
needed  buildings  can  be  built  with  student  labor. 

Here  it  is  proposed  to  conduct  a  general  training  school 
with  industrial  features,  and  to  send  out  from  it  the  helpers 
needed  for  the  various  departments  of  the  work  in  the  great 
itinerating  of  the  Central  Brazil  Mission. 

The  Bahia  School,  after  Mr.  Eells'  departure,  was  closed. 
The  schools  at  Aracajii  and  Cachoeira  are  parochial  schools, 
aided  by  the  Mission  to  strengthen  old  centres  of  Mission  work 
from  which  missionaries  have  been  withdrawn.  Both  have 
been  great  aids  to  the  stability  of  the  native  church.  That 
of  Aracajii  especially  has  been  the  sheet  anchor  of  our  work 
there. 

The  changes  in  the  Mission  staff  during  the  year  have  made 
it  impossible  for  the  missionaries  remaining  on  the  field  to 
furnish  full  statistics.     The  data  as  available  are  as  follows:

EAST  RIO  STATION. 

Dr.  Porter  writes  of  his  work  in  the  Rio  field,  where  he  suc- 
ceeded Dr.  Kyle. 

At  Mission  meeting  there  was  read  a  letter  from  Rev.  Henrique 
Louro,  of  Sao  Jos6  de  Ribereirao,  which  told  us  that  on  New  Year's 
Day  a  man  from  the  mountains  to  the  east  had  visited  him,  to  ask  for 
a  minister  to  preach  in  the  district  of  Sanna.  I  answered  the  call  and 
have  continued  to  care  for  the  fiaiitful  and  ever-widening  work  in  "the 
Switzerland  of  Brazil,"  and  have  pushed  on  down  to  the  sea  at  the 
beautiful  Barra  de  Sao  Joas.  Over  the  portal  of  the  cemetery  in  that 
city,  where  the  poet  Casimiro  de  Abreu  is  btiried,  there  is  cut  the  stem

legend:  "We  were  what  you  are.  You  will  be  what  we  are."  Re- 
deeming the  time,  for  the  night  cometh,  we  have  wrought  the  year 
through. 

As  to  the  people,  a  few  of  them  blacks,  little  better  than  the  slaves 
they  once  were;  many  mulattoes,  hewers  of  wood  and  drawers  of  water; 
but  most  of  the  inhabitants  are  descended  from  the  old  enterprising 
Portuguese,  who  colonized  Brazil,  and  the  patient  thrifty  Swiss  and 
German  immigrants  of  the  last  century.  A  very  few  are  Italians  and 
Syrians.  The  State  of  Rio  is  "Old  Brazil, "  where  old  families  abound, 
titles  of  nobility  survive  from  the  time  of  the  Empire,  and  life  centres 
in  the  great  fanns  of  a  thousand  to  seven  thousand  acres,  with  their 
gangs  of  laborers  who  resemble  the  retainers  and  servants  of  the 
medieval  barons  of  Europe.  The  primitive  fertility  of  the  soil  has 
been  weakened,  the  price  of  coffee  has  gone  down  and  the  cost  of  politics 
has  gone  up,  so  that  this  State  is  poor  and,  among  other  forced  econo- 
mies, has  diminished  her  public  schools  from  1,200  to  300  and  cut  in 
half  the  teachers'  salaries.  High  railway  rates  provoked  a  mob  to 
destroy  much  property  in  Campos  last  April.  The  orders  of  the  Roman 
Church  aim  to  control  schooling  in  the  educational  centres  of  Nicthe- 
roy,  Friburgo  and  Campos,  but  the  priests  and  monks  have  almost 
abandoned  large  sections  of  the  State,  or  only  visit  them  once  in  six 
months  to  baptize  children.  Spiritualism,  materialism,  facile  morals 
are  in  vogue.  Since  the  coming  of  the  Republic  very  few  farm  people 
have  any  religious  instruction  whatever.  In  our  cities  a  persistent 
effort  is  made  to  teach  the  Papal  Catechism  to  every  child. 

Social  betterments  there  are  in  abundance,  such  as  these:  (a) 
Reasonable  discussion  in  the  newspapers  of  the  problem  of  railroad 
rates ;  (b)  the  effort  of  niany  of  the  best  people  of  Friburgo  to  prevent 
religious  intolerance;  (c:)  the  able  articles  in  the  Rio  papers  for  and 
against  the  retmion  of  Church  and  State  anent  the  social  fruits  of 
Romanism  and  the  Gospel,  the  continuance  of  the  Republic's  official 
representative  at  the  Vatican,  and  similar  themes,  have  been  widely 
read;  (d)  another  sign  of  promise  is  that  our  evangelical  churches 
everywhere  in  this  State  are  asking  for  schools  and  teachers  and  minis- 
ters. They  are  paying  the  pastors  better  salaries.  They  are  praying 
for  a  sufficient  ministry  and  a  militant  church;  (e)  in  Rio  two  new 
churches  have  been  organized  within  a  year,  Botafogo  and  Caju. 
During  the  year  the  baptisms  of  adults  in  our  Friburgo  field  by  me 
number  160;  by  Rev.  Henrique  Louro,  80;  by  Rev.  Manuel  de  Brito, 
no.     This  field  now  counts  1,250  to  1,300  adult  Presbyterians. 

Of  the  work  in  Sanna,  subsequently  disturbed  by  adverse 
influences.  Dr.  Porter  writes: 

The  Gospel  entered  the  valley  of  the  Sanna,  fifty  miles  east  of 
Friburgo,  on  the  eastern  slope  of  the  mountains,  through  Bibles  sent 
out  from  our  Church  of  Barra  Alegre  three  years  ago.  Soon  hundreds 
were  baptized  by  two  of  their  neighbors  in  sign  of  repentance,  and  a 
house  was  built  for  divine  worship.  But  they  did  not  well  understand 
the  Gospel.  Many  fell  into  Spiritualism.  The  chief  baptized,  sinned 
and  lost  prestige.  The  more  evangelical  began  to  build  another 
house  of  prayer,  and  I  answered  their  Macedonian  call  for  a  minister. 
On  my  first  visit  thirty-one  were  baptized  in  the  Gospel,  and  many 
were  declined  because  of  unforsaken  sin  in  their  lives.  On  my  next 
visit  forty  were  baptized.  The  work  has  grown  and  spread,  and  on 
November  8  the  congregation  of  120  baptized  adults  was  called  to  the 
sacrament  in  the  chiu'ch,  which  is  as  yet  unfinished,  but  is  built  and 
paid  for  by  the  converts  without  aid  from  others. 


440  SOUTHERN  BRAZIL— CASTRO. 


FLORIANAPOLIS. 

Mr.  Lenington  has  continued  to  care  for  this  field.  He 
writes : 

I  have  visited  the  church'  at  Jordao  seven  times  during  the  year, 
and  the  work  there  is  picking  up  again.  Several  have  been  received 
during  the  year  and  a  number  are  preparing  themselves.  Alterations 
are  being  made  in  the  building  to  better  accommodate  the  growing 
congregations,  and  the  brethren  are  taking  their  part  in  the  wider 
interests  of  the  Church. 

Four  visits  have  been  made  to  Sao  Francisco,  where  the  only  elder 
died  just  at  the  close  of  last  year.  The  new  elders  were  elected  and 
ordained  and  they  have  done  good  work  during  the  year. 

Five  visits  have  been  made  to  Camboriu,  our  new  field,  where  the 
most  signal  manifestations  of  the  Spirit  of  God  have  been  made. 
The  interest  seems  constantly  on  the  increase.  At  every  service,  no 
:natter  what  the  weather,  the  people  would  come  long  distances  on  foot, 
carrying  their  little  children.  And  how  they  do  listen  and  take  part 
in  the  singing!  A  night  school  has  been  started,  taught  by  one  of  the 
members  of  the  church,  and  every  night  you  will  find  even  gray- 
haired  men  learning  to  read  and  write,  that  for  themselves  they  may 
study  the  Word  of  God.  Do  you  wonder  that  the  work  goes  fon;\'ard ? 
The  Communion  services  are  occasions  which  appeal  to  the  heart. 
You  see  the  tears  in  the  eyes  of  many  as  they  remember  their  Saviour's 
love,  and  hear  the  suppressed  sobs  of  others  who  have  not  been  able  to 
join  the  church  as  yet  because  of  sad  complications  in  their  lives.  I 
feel  very  sorry  for  several  of  these  persons,  for  I  see  how  hopeless 
are  their  conditions,  and  yet  it  is  impossible  to  allow  them  to  join  the 
church.  Forty  persons  have  been  received  there  during  the  year, 
and  the  work  is  reaching  into  all  the  surrounding  districts.  So  large 
are  the  crowds  which  attend  the  services  that  there  is  no  house  in  the 
neighborhood  which  can  hold  them,  and  the  brethren  have  taken  hold 
with  vim  to  build  a  church.  They  are  busy  at  work  and  hope  to 
inaugurate  their  building  very  shortly.  It  has  been  a  great  pleasure 
to  me  to  see  the  way  in  which  the  churches  of  the  Presbytery  responded 
to  the  appeal  for  funds  to  help  these  brethren.  Everyone  responded. 
The  Presbytery  has  appointed  a  committee  to  organize  a  church  there 
during  the  coming  year. 

I  have  baptized  during  the  year  forty-eight  persons  on  profession  and 
sixty-four  children. 


CASTRO. 

Mr.  Bickerstaph  writes  of  some  points  in  his  field: 

At  Chapeco,  I  held  a  series  of  meetings  in  the  comfortable  hall  which 
the  congregation  bought  and  paid  for  without  outside  help.  There 
was  great  interest  manifested,  the  hall  being  crowded  to  its  utmost 
capacity  and  many  eagerly  listening  about  the  door  and  windows. 
Twelve  professed  their  faith  and  eight  children  M'ere  baptized. 

I  wish  to  call  particular  attention  to  the  excellent  work  done  by 
laymen  in  this  part  of  the  State.  At  Antas,  Chapeco  and  Passo  dos 
Indies  meetings  are  held  regularly  and  the  strong  help  bear  the  burdens 
of  the  weak.  At  Chapeco  the  brethren  have  realized  their  responsi- 
bility   as    the    central    congregation    and    have    worked    accordingly. 


SOUTHERN  BRAZIL— CURITYB A.  441 

Although  nearly  all  live  from  two  to  four  miles  from  the  post,  they 
resolved  to  have  their  meeting  in  the  "Praca,"  in  order  to  facilitate 
the  spread  of  the  gospel.  On  Saturday  afternoon  the  families  begin 
to  arrive  on  horseback  and  on  foot.  Some  have  houses  in  the  "  Praca,  " 
some  stay  with  friends,  and  some  bring  food  with  them  and  sleep  in 
the  meeting  house  or  elsewhere.  Meetings  are  held  on  Saturday 
evening  and  twice  on  Sunday,  and  on  Monday  all  return  to  their  homes. 
In  my  entire  field  I  have  received  on  profession  of  faith  forty  mem- 
bers and  baptized  thirty-two  children.  There  has  been  a  very  decided 
growth  in  the  southern  part  of  the  state  and  in  the  vicinity  of  Espigao 
Alto,  about  fortj'^-five  miles  from  Castro. 


GUARAPUAVA. 

Mr.  Kolb  reports: 

We  have  had  opportunities  to  preach  the  Word  in  localities  not 
hitherto  reached.  The  opposition  to  the  Gospel  is,  in  some  respects, 
in  a  state  of  change.  While  the  liberties  of  the  individual  are  being 
more  clearly  recognized  and  respected,  other  influences  are  at  w^ork 
whose  tendencies  are  to  enslave  and  vitiate. 

The  chief  antagonism  has  come  from  the  SpirituaUsts. 

CURITYBA. 

Miss  Kuhl  reports  of  the  Eschola  Americana: 

Two  hundred  and  fifty-two  pupils  were  enrolled,  beside  eight  who 
came  for  special  lessons.  Nine  nations  are  represented.  The  name 
of  one  of  our  pupils  is  written  in  Arabic.  The  father  did  not  know  how 
to  write  his  son's  name  in  Portuguese,  so  we  told  him  to  write  it  in  his 
own  language. 

A  very  important  part  of  the  work  in  this  cosmopolitan  school  is  to 
have  the  children  taught  the  language  of  the  country. 

The  primary  rooms  were  overflowing.  The  hall  and  veranda  were 
used  for  classes.  When  the  seats  were  all  filled  we  put  in  little  tables 
and  chairs.     Soon  there  was  no  more  space  and  we  had  to  refuse  ptipils. 

In  our  home  we  have  had  fifteen  boarding  pupils  and  four  teachers. 
We  also  had  three  day  boarders  the  first  term.  Four  teacher-pupils 
have  had  their  home  in  the  house  that  accommodates  our  primary 
school.  We  have  refused  many  boarding  pupils  this  year  for  want  of 
room.  Some  of  these  found  homes  in  private  families  and  becaine 
day-puplis;  some  went  to  other  schools. 

Eight  of  our  girls  wished  to  unite  with  the  church,  but  as  they  did 
not  have  the  consent  of  their  parents  we  thought  it  best  for  them  to 
wait  until  later. 

The  school  has  had  the  invaluable  help  during  the  year  of 
Miss  Kuhl's  niece  Miss  Angle  S.  Kuhl,  and  her  friend,  Miss 
Gertrude  Lukens,  graduates  of  Wellesley  College,  who  have 
spent  the  year  in  Curityba,

On  Furlough  during  the  Year:  Rev.  and  Mrs.  W.  B.  Boomer. 

The  report  which  follows  covers  the  Chili  field  as  divided 
above.  During  the  past  year  Rev.  R.  B.  Elmore  and  Mrs. 
Elmore  have  gone  to  the  field,  Mr.  Elmore  to  act  as  vice-prin- 
cipal of  the  Santiago  Institute.  Mr.  James  Oxford  has  also 
been  appointed  a  teacher  in  the  Institute.  For  the  new  year 
an  additional  Station  has  been  created,  extending  from 
Linares  to  Rancagua,  including  San  Fernando.  It  will  be 
called  the  San  Fernando  Station.  The  assignment  of  workers 
will  be  as  follows: 

Beginning  with  Traiguen,  in  the  south,  the  church  is  held  by 
the  Rev.  Miguel  Marti;  in  Concepcion,  Mr.  Boomer  will  have 
general  charge  of  the  work  and  will  have  associated  with  him 
the  Rev.  Tulio  Moran;  in  Chilian,  the  Rev.  Alberto  Moran 
continues  in  charge  of  the  church;  in  Talca,  the  Rev.  Federico 
Figueroa  supplies  the  local  church;  in  San  Fernando,  Mr. 
McLean  will  have  charge  and  Sr.  Valdebenito,  a  student  helper, 
will  assist  him;  Sr.  Juan  Enrique  Reyes  continues  in  Ranca- 
gua; in  Santiago,  Dr.  Lester  will  be  in  charge  of  the  Union

Church  as  pastor;  Mr.  Garvin,  superintendent  of  the  Station 
and  in  charge  of  the  evangelistic  work;  Dr.  Browning,  prin- 
cipal of  the  "Instituto  Ingl6s, "  and  Mr.  Elmore  as  assistant 
principal;  the  Rev.  Francisco  Diez,  pastor  of  the  Trinity 
Church,  and  the  Rev.  Juan  de  Dios  Leiton,  in  charge  of  the 
Church  of  the  Redeemer;  in  Valparaiso,  Mr.  Spining  and 
Miss  Smith  continue  in  charge  of  the  evangelistic  and  educa- 
tional work  of  the  Station,  while  the  Rev.  Manuel  Herrera 
will  have  charge  in  Vina  del  Mar,  and  Sr.  David  Rey  in  Mira 
Mar,  and  also  Sr.  Efrain  Martinez.  Mr.  Smith  is  the  super- 
intendent of  the  North  field  and  will  have  associated  with 
him  the  Rev.  Ramon  Olivares  in  Taltal,  the  Rev.  Enrique 
Krauss  in  Tocopilla,  one  or  two  workers  in  the  interior,  and 
one  in  Copiap6.  • 

SANTIAGO  STATION. 

This  field  the  past  year  included  Santiago,  Rancagua,  San 
Fernando,  Curic6,  Talca  and  Linares  as  places  in  this  terri- 
tory where  work  has  been  done  during  the  year. 

In  general  the  year  has  been  one  of  progress.  There  has 
been  one  less  paid  worker  than  in  1907,  but  a  numerical  gain 
in  membership  in  several  of  the  churches. 

There  has  been  a  gain  in  attendance  in  Curico  and  Ranca- 
gua, and  in  Av.  Brazil  since  the  enlargement  of  the  building. 
In  Av.  Matta  there  has  been  a  healthy  and  steady  increase 
all  along  the  line.  San  Fernando  is  asking  us  to  take  up  work 
there  again.  Linares  is  showing  signs  of  new  life,  and  Talca 
is  bravely  holding  its  own. 

While  there  has  been  no  special  revival,  there  is  a  marked 
gain  in  fraternal  spirit  in  most  of  the  congregations  and 
between  the  churches. 

SANTIAGO. — Of  the  Santisima  Trinidad  the  report  says: 

This  church  has  suffered  severely  from  its  cramped  quarters.  On 
this  account  no  aggressive  work  could  be  undertaken  with  prospect 
of  success  vmtil  almost  the  end  of  the  year.  There  has  been  a  net  loss 
of  three  in  membership.  Btit  there  has  been  a  distinct  and  notable 
gain  in  the  spirit  of  the  membership,  a  gain  which  has  required  time 
to  bring  about.  It  is  not  too  much  to  say  that  this  change  is  due  in 
great  part  to  the  initiative  and  influence  of  Mrs.  Garvin,  who  has  given 
her  time  and  effort  chiefly  though  by  no  means  exclusively  to  this 
congregation. 

Pastor  Diez  has  also  given  most  cordial  aid  in  every  effort  to  ad- 
vance the  interests   of  the  church. 

Church  Building  (Av.    Brazil    753,   Santiago). — Work  was 
begun  August  i  on  the  enlargement  of  the  temporary  make- 
shift of  a  hall  into  a  church  which  can  seat  over  500  and  give 
*standing  room  to  2qo  more.     This  work  was  started  just  as 


CHILI— SANTIAGO.  Uh 

soon  as  word  came  allowing  us  to  mortgage  the  property  of 
the  Instituto.  Up  to  the  end  of  December  12,000  pesos  have 
been  spent,  and  it  looks  as  though  another  2,000  pesos  would 
be  required  to  finish  it. 

With  the  7,000  left  after  the  building  is  completed  the  Av. 
Matta  building  will  be  begun.  How  much  can  be  done  with 
this  remains  to  be  seen.  Possibly  it  will  allow  the  remaining 
walls  to  be  built  and  a  roof  to  be  put  on.  Surely  nothing 
more. 

REDENTOR. — Senor  Leiton  has  been  efficient  as  pastor 
of  this  church.  He  is  a  good  organizer  and  manager  of  the 
general  work  of  the  church.  While  not  a  theologian,  he 
thinks  for  himself,  is  conservative  in  his  beliefs,  but  aggres- 
sive in  his  preaching.  He  is  a  man  of  the  people  and  is  liked 
by  them  and  respected.  He  is  a  good  counselor  and  modest. 
He  does  faithfully  whatever  he  undertakes  and  is  always 
willing. 

The  congregation  has  grown  in  numbers  and  their  enthu- 
siasm for  the  evangelistic  meetings  keeps  up  well.  There  is 
a  class  on  Tuesday  nights  most  of  the  year  for  those  of  the 
men  who  conduct  these  meetings,  and  for  such  others  as  wish 
to  attend.     This  class  has  varied  from  ten  to  twenty. 

The  Sunday-school  has  increased  in  numbers,  running  about 
160  now.  They  are  working  for  200,  but  the  present  room 
is  insufficient  for  such  a  number  with  any  division  of  classes. 

Mention  should  be  made  of  the  work  of  Dona  Isabel  Mufioz-, 
the  Bible  woman,  who  has  continued  to  discharge  faithfully 
the  duties  given  her.  She  visits  and  reads  the  Bible,  getting 
in  new  families,  and  also  does  some  colporteur  work.  Partly 
at  least  to  her  work  is  due  the  attendance  of  twenty-eight 
women  at  the  services  who  never  came  before  this  year. 

RANCAGUA. — Of  the  work  there  the  report  says : 

Since  February  Senor  Reyes  has  worked  with  no  little  degree  of 
success  in  this  place,  building  up  the  congregation  from  a  half  a  dozen 
to  some  twenty  or  more  regular  attendants.  There  have  been  two 
additions,  but  there  are  a  number  who  will  probably  come  in  soon. 
Not  a  little  persecution  has  been  suffered  by  the  attendants  at  our 
services,  sometimes  losing  employment,  or  being  turned  out  of  their 
houses,  just  because  they  came  to  a  Protestant  service.  Some  who 
were  quite  eager  at  first  were  deterred  by  this  persecution.  Were  it 
not  that  we  have  our  own  place  of  worship  it  would  be  exceedingly 
difficult  to  rent  a  place  in  Rancagua.  Reyes  has  also  done  well  in 
colporteur  work,  for  which  he  has  a  great  liking.  He  has  visited  a 
number  of  the  neighboring  towns,  and  finds  that  it  would  be  quite  easy 
to  start  meetings  in  several  of  them. 

TALCA.— 

Seflor  Figueroa  has  had  charge  of  the  work  here  and  at  Curic6  since 


446  CHILI— VALPARAISO. 

February,  and  at  this  place  there  have  been  six  additions  on  confession 
and  five  by  letter.  These  have  been  offset  by  reductions  of  the  roll  of 
persons  who  for  a  long  time  have  not  attended  and  whose  whereabouts 
are  not  known.  There  are  almost  none  to  whom  the  services  can  be 
entrusted  while  Sr.  Figueroa  is  away.  Although  his  wife's  health 
does  not  allow  her  to  do  all  that  her  spirit  prompts,  she  has  taught 
a  number  of  the  children  and  held  a  children's  band  once  a  week. 
The  usual  services  are  maintained,  and  besides  Sr.  Figueroa  goes  once 
a  week  to  Curico  and  every  other  week  to  Linares,  each  trip  requiring 
him  to  reach  home  after  midnight. 

SAN  FERNANDO.— 

For  the  past  three  months  there  has  been  manifested  a  growing 
desire  on  the  part  of  a  majority  of  members  and  directors  of  the  church 
that  our  Mission  should  take  up  the  work  there  again,  and  finally 
an  official  request  has  been  sent  to  the  Mission  and  Presbytery  to  this 
effect.  This  is  an  inviting  field,  where  we  should  have  a  worker  who 
can  reside  here  and  supply  Curico. 

At  the  Mission  meeting  the  plea  was  answered  by  making 
San  Fernando  a  Station  and  putting  Mr.  McLean  in  charge. 

COLPORTAGE.— Mr.  Garvin  writes: 

During  the  year  something  over  10,000  pesos  of  books  have  been 
put  into  circulation.  I  can  only  hazard  a  guess  as  to  the  number  of 
books  which  this  sum  represents,  as  prices  range  from  20  cents  to  $8. 
But  I  should  say  that  not  less  than  20,000  books,  including  Bibles  and 
Testaments,  have  been  sold.  In  addition  to  the  agencies  of  last  year 
where  a  stock  of  books  has  been  maintained,  namely,  Tocopilla, 
Chanaral,  Caldcra,  Copiapo,  Valparaiso,  Vina,  Santiago,  Rancagua, 
Talca,  Concepcion  and  Traiguen,  there  have  been  added  those  of  Anto- 
f agasta,  Chilian ,  Victoria  and  Temuco 

On  the  whole  the  situation  is  favorable,  not  as  a  business  enterprise, 
since  there  is  no  gain  in  money,  but  in  the  fact  that  such  an  amount  of 
literature,  mostly  of  a  direct  evangelistic  character,  and  the  rest  of  an 
uplifting  educational  character,  has  been  put  into  the  hands  of  people, 
the  most  of  whom  would  have  had  nothing  of  the  kind.  This  has  been 
done  without  any  expense  to  the  Board,  nor  to  the  Mission, 

VALPARAISO  STATION. 

The  report  says: 

We  closed  last  year  grateful  for  material  blessings — the  completion 
of  the  Mission  plant  and  the  Vina  del  Mar  Church.  We  close  this 
year  with  gratitude  for  spiritual  blessings — the  larger  life  which  the 
work  has  taken  on  in  all  its  departments  and  the  promising  outlook 
for  the  future.  While  far  from  perfect,  yet  we  can  say  that  in  organi- 
zation and  efficiency  the  work  in  Valparaiso  approaches  more  closely 
the  ideals  of  those  in  charge  than  at  any  time  in  its  past  history. 

The  year  began  with  the  meetings  held  by  the  evangelist,  Mr. 
Fransen.  We  had  often  spoken  of  the  churches  being  ready  for  such 
a  visitation  and  it  came  as  unexpectedly  as  lightning  from  a  clear  sky. 
A  good  number  professed  conversion,  many  of  whom  have  been  re- 
ceived into  the  church ;  many  members  were  quickened  in  their  spirit- 
ual life  and  received  an  impulse  to  better  service. 


CHILI— VALPARAISO.  447 

The  catechumen  class  has  become  a  permanent  feature  of  the  church 
work.  It  has  had  between  thirty  and  lifty  enrolled  during  the  entire 
year.  No  communion  season  has  passed  without  some  of  its  members 
being  received  as  members.  Mr.  Martinez  has  had  this  class  in  charge 
and  has  done  thorough  work  with  it.  The  Session  has  also  been  very 
conservative  about  receiving  new  members,  so  we  believe  that  it  rarely 
happens  that  an  unworthy  person  is  admitted  to  church  membership. 
In  all  forty-four  were  received  into  the  church,  thirty-six  on  profession 
of  faith,  eight  by  letter.  Thirty-live  adults  and  eight  children  were 
baptized.  Two  members  died,  two  were  suspended  and  five  dismissed 
to  other  churches,  so  that  our  present  membership  is  149. 

The  church  service  has  been  better  attended,  although  the  increase 
has  not  been  as  marked  as  desired.  Two  hundred  and  twenty-five 
would  be  a  conservative  estimate  of  the  average  attendance.  The 
workers'  class  has  been  larger  and  more  enthusiastic  than  in  the  past. 
From  this  class  three  men  are  named  for  each  preaching  place;  one 
leads,  the  second  preaches  and  the  third  takes  part  in  the  meeting  and 
distributes  tracts  at  the  door.  It  is  no  little  sacrifice  to  come  down 
these  hills  in  Valparaiso  after  a  day's  hard  work  to  attend  this  class, 
then  to  help  in  some  meeting  place  on  another  night,  yet  there  has 
never  been  any  difficulty  to  supply  men  for  all  the  places.  From 
between  fifteen  and  twenty  attended  the  class  and  were  available  for 
the  work  each  week. 

The  church  prayer  meeting  has  had  an  average  attendance  of  over 
100. 

Finances.— The  church  has  received  from  collections  and  contri- 
butors $2,418.20.  The  Sunday-schools  have  contributed  $1,603, 
$490  were  given  for  the  Deacons'  Fund,  $145  contributed  by  the  Liga 
de  Senoras,  $300  were  contributed  for  special  objects.  The  Organ 
Ftmd  received  $930,  making  a  total  of  $5 ,883  .  20.  All  obligations  were 
promptly  met,  and  the  small  surplus  remaining  at  the  end  of  the  year 
was  divided  among  several  worthy  objects.  The  Organ  Fund  has  in 
hand  $2,000,  and  another  $1,000  in  good  subscriptions.  We  would 
not  feel  justified  in  purchasing  so  expensive  an  instrument  if  it  caused 
a  drain  on  the  resources  of  the  church,  but  that  has  not  been  the  case; 
not  one  cent  has  been  sohcited.  All  this  money  has  simply  come  m 
from  friends  interested,  or  from  concerts  organized  by  English  friends 
for  this  purpose.  The  Sunday-school  gave  $200  of  its  surplus,  and  the 
young  ladies  of  the  church,  who  have  made  candy  under  the  direction 
of  Miss  Smith,  have  contributed  a  like  sum.  All  the  rest  has  been 
from  outsiders.  The  organ-makers  have  promised  to  ship  the  instru- 
ment at  the  end  of  this  month,  and  we  are  hoping  to  have  it  in  use  by 
Easter,  and  w^e  are  sure  that  it  will  be  a  great  help  in  bringing  in  new 
people. 

The  music  of  the  church  has  continued  to  improve,  and  is  undoubt- 
edly an  attraction  and  a  power  for  good.  The  music  for  the  Christmas 
entertainment  was  more  difficult  than  anything  we  had  previously 
attempted,  but  was  very  creditably  rendered.  Several  of  the  girls 
are  learning  to  play  and  their  services  have  been  invaluable  in  the 
preaching  places. 

Sunday-school. — The  principal  school  has  an  enrollment  of  380. 
Its  average  attendance,  including  rainy  Sundays,  has  reached  200  per 
Sunday,  an  increase  of  i2>-2  per  cent,  over  last  year,  and  of  over  30 
per  cent,  of  the  attendance  of  two  years  ago.  The  Infant  Department 
has  118  enrolled,  and  has  been  provided  with  six  dozen  native  stools, 
which  gives  more  room  and  better  seating  arrangement.  There  are 
forty-nine  teachers  and  officers  in  all  our  schools.  The  teachers' 
meeting  has  been  maintained  all  the  year,  with  a  very  satisfactory 
attendance. 

Schools  have  also  been  maintained  as  follows:  At  Cerro  Carretas, 


448  CHILI— VALPARAiSO. 

with  an  enrollment  of  sixtj'-two  and  an  average  attendance  of  forty. 
The  Escuela  Popular  Sunday-school,  with  eighty-one  enrolled  and  an 
average  attendance  between  forty  and  fifty.  At  Las  Palmas,  the  school 
meets  under  the  trees  in  the  yard  belonging  to  our  enthusiastic  worker, 
Manuel  Lillo.  It  has  forty-seven  enrolled  and  an  average  attendance 
of  thirty-five.     At  Miramar,  with  about  thirty  enrolled. 

EVANGELISTIC  WORK.— Along  this  line  there  has  been  the 
most  marked  development.  We  have  five  regular  preaching  places 
outside  of  the  church  and  the  Escuela  Popular.  The  work  in  Cerro 
Carretas  reported  last  year  has  been  continued,  and  has  become  quite 
a  centre  of  propaganda.  There  has  been  an  average  attendance  of 
about  fifty. 

Las  Palmas. — The  work  here  is  very  promising.  The  Tuesday 
evening  preaching  service,  like  the  Sunday-school,  is  held  in  the  open 
air.  There  is  always  a  good  crowd  of  respectful  hearers.  The  magic 
lantern  with  views  of  the  life  of  Christ  attracted  large  audiences,  but 
without  that  special  attraction  between  fifty  and  a  hundred  generally 
attend.  Some  fruits  have  already  been  garnered  from  this  work, 
and  a  number  of  attendants  are  in  the  catechumen  class. 

Pasaje  Quillota. — Here  the  corner  of  Sr.  Lillo's  wagon  shop  is  cleared 
on  Thursday  evenings  for  a  meeting.  It  has  had  a  varying  attendance 
of  sometimes  twenty  and  thirty,  and  at  others  three  or  four  hundred. 

Cerro  Cordillera. — A  small  meeting  has  been  maintained  by  the 
Workers'  Training  Class  on  Thursday  evenings.  Recently  an  entire 
family  has  been  brought  to  the  church  whose  interest  was  awakened 
there. 

Villa  Seca. — This  is  a  very  thickly  inhabited  part  of  the  city  near 
the  Arsenal.  Land  has  been  purchased  and  a  building  is  to  be  erected 
which  can  be  used  as  a  chapel  and  school,  if  so  desired.  When  the 
new  works  in  the  harbor  are  begun  this  will  be  the  nearest  point  to  the 
new  breakwater  that  is  to  be  built,  and  means  that  this  district  will 
be  rapidly  built  up  and  become  even  more  densely  populated. 

Mira}nar. — In  Miramar  meetings  in  the  new  chapel  were  begxin  six 
weeks  ago.  The  first  meetings  had  an  attendance  of  from  eighty  to 
ninety,  and  although  we  have  had  no  nucleus  of  believers  there,  the 
meetings  have  continued  with  very  satisfactory  results.  This  is  one 
of  our  most  proinising  fields. 

In  Vina  del  Mar,  aside  from  the  church,  we  have  the  new  local  in 
Santa  Inez,  which  is  the  extreme  district  of  Poblacion  Vergara.  Here 
an  interested  member  offered  land  and  the  work  if  we  would  give  him 
materials  with  which  to  build.  About  $250  (pesos)  of  special  funds 
were  loaned  him  for  that  purpose,  and  soon  we  will  have  a  chapel 
16  by  30  feet,  the  use  of  which  will  be  given  us  free  of  rent.  Workers 
from  the  Vifia  Church  conduct  a  Thursday  evening  meeting  and  a 
Sunday-school  there,  with  an  attendance  of  from  thirty  to  forty. 
This,  like  the  Miramar  Church,  has  been  developed  in  a  few  weeks' 
time. 

Chorillos. — This  is  a  district  of  Vina  del  Mar  where  many  of  the 
sugar  refinery  workmen  live.  A  Sunday-school  is  being  maintained 
in  the  house  of  a  member,  conducted  by  Sra.  Olivares.  From  twenty- 
five  to  thirty  children  attend. 

Vina  del  Mar. — This  will  be  mentioned  in  a  separate  report,  but  in 
order  to  make  the  Station  report  complete  a  few  data  will  be  given 
here. 

Sr.  and  Sra.  Olivares  have  continued  to  do  good  work,  but  the 
church  has  lost  members  on  account  of  hard  times,  a  third  of  them 
having  been  obliged  to  go  elsewhere  in  search  of  work.  But  the 
increase  has  just  about  balanced  the  loss.  The  church  has  a  member- 
ship of  sixty-four,  sixteen  of  whom  were  received  during  the  present 


CHILI— VALPARAISO.  449 

year.     The    Sunday-school    has    an    enrolhnent    of    125,    which    with 
Chorillos   and   Santa   Inez   gives   them   a   total   membership   in   their 
Sunday-schools    of    165,    omitting    duplicates.     Abotit    $2,500    were 
raised  by  the  church  and  Sunday-school. 
The  suinmary  of  our  Station  is  as  follows:

Miss  F.  E.  Smith  writes: 

Missionary  work  in  Valparaiso  during  1908  has  been  such  a  joy 
that  one  has  scarcely  noted  length  of  days  or  weariness  of  body. 
To  have  one's  prayers  answered  day  by  day,  to  see  church  and  preach- 
ing halls  filled  with  eager  listeners  night  after  night,  to  watch  Chilian 
men  and  women  develop  into  earnest  and  efficient  personal  workers, 
to  see  souls  saved  all  through  the  year,  to  watch  the  work  moving 
forward  in  all  its  departments  surely  and  steadily  in  a  continuous 
atmosphere  of  sane  revival — -this  has  been  our  privilege  in  Valparaiso 
and  Vina  del  Mar.  Our  Station  meetings  on  Monday  afternoon  have 
been  a  continued  song  of  rejoicing  and  a  yearning  for  still  greater 
blessings,  both  for  ourselves  personally  and  for  all  those  who  look 
toward  us  as  leaders. 

The  year  has  been  beautifully  and  unexpectedly  crowned  by  the 
dedication  of  himself  to  the  native  ministry  of  one  of  our  most  spiritual 
and  efficient  young  men.  At  the  last  Consecration  Service  of  our 
Endeavor  Society,  this  young  Chilian  arose  and  in  simple  words  that 
went  straight  to  every  heart  told  how  the  Sunday-school  lesson  as 
taught  in  Teacher's  Meeting  the  evening  before,  on  the  failure  of 
Saul's  life  because  he  preferred  his  own  life-plan  to  God's,  had  revealed 
a  like  rebellion  in  his  own  heart.  Although  he  will  be  sorely  inissed 
from  our  own  ranks  we  are  deeply  grateful  for  this  last  manifestation 
of  the  grace  of  God. 

STRATEGIC  PLANNING.— You  are  now  invited  for  a  moment  to 
glance  at  the  geographical  formation  of  Valparaiso.  It  is  in  the  form 
of  a  semi-circle  aroiind  the  bay.  At  one  extreme  there  is  Santa  Inez, 
then  the  Vina  del  Mar  Church  and  Chorillos,  then  the  Miramar  Chapel. 
These  cover  the  ground  fairly  well  as  far  as  Recreo.  In  Recreo, 
Placeres  and  Baron  the  Methodists  are  at  work.  Our  preaching  places 
in  Las  Palmas  and  Pasaje  Quillota  come  next.  The  new  Methodist 
plant  is  in  the  centre  of  the  Almendral.  There  is  a  large  gap  here  on 
the  hills  between  Cerro  Polanco  and  Cerro  Bella  Vista,  where  at  least 
three  chapels  should  be  planted.  Then  comes  our  central  plant, 
Cerro  Carretas,  and  Villa  Seca  will  represent  the  other  extreme  of  the 
semi-circle.  We  have  only  to  open  this  last  place  and  fill  in  the  gap 
to  have  the  city  surrounded.  $1,000  American  gold  would  buy  the 
land,  build  a  chapel  and  two  small  rooms  for  a  worker  in  each  of  these 
places.  The  chapel  could  also  be  used  as  a  school,  and  thus  become 
a  centre  of  light  to  a  large  district  365  days  in  the  year.  Since  the 
earthquake  the  people  have  flocked  to  the  hills  because  there  was  no 
place  else  to  go.  If  we  reach  them  with  the  Gospel,  we  must  take  it 
to  them.  Our  new  plant  in  the  port  and  the  new  Methodist  plant  in 
the  Almendral  are  well  located  where  they  are  most  needed,  but  we 
must  not  neglect  these  forty-seven  hills  where  the  masses  live.  The 
climbing  is  hard.  Legs,  heart  and  lungs  soon  weary  of  it,  but  the  view

from  the  top  is  grand,  and  the  work  is  too  interesting  and  too  promising 
to  be  neglected.  A  special  effort  was  made  with  the  magic  lantern 
during  November  and  December.  In  the  twelve  special  meetings 
there  was  a  total  attendance  of  not  less  than  3,000  people.  The 
thing  that  amazes  us  most  is  the  changed  attitude  of  the  people  toward 
the  Gospel.  We  have  preached  in  the  open  air,  we  have  opened  work 
in  new  districts,  but  there  have  been  no  stones  thrown,  no  cat-calls, 
no  insults,  but  respectful,  often  eager,  attention.  Formerly  we  were 
accustomed  to  work  months,  even  years,  in  a  place  without  being  able 
to  gather  much  of  a  congregation ;  now  we  have  only  to  open  the  door, 
and  from  the  first  there  is  a  crowd  large  enough  and  interested  enough 
to  inspire  one  to  new  zeal.  Congregations  and  Sunday-schools  are 
formed  in  a  day.  The  development  of  the  work  is  to  be  measured 
only  by  the  physical  strength  of  the  staff.  What  does  it  mean?  I 
believe  it  means  that  the  prayers  of  Dr.  Trumbull  and  Mr.  Merwin 
and  those  who  afterward  followed  them  in  the  work  here  are  being 
answered.  The  dream  of  the  day  when  the  Chilians  would  turn  to 
Christ  is  dawning.  To  us  these  conditions  and  these  open  doors  are 
"the  sound  of  the  going  in  the  tops  of  the  mulberry  trees, "  announcing 
that  the  Lord  is  near,  and  ready  to  lead  His  people  on  to  victory. 

COPIAPd  STATION. 

The  Copiapo  Station  of  the  ChiH  Mission  comprises,  begin- 
ning on  the  north,  the  port  of  Tocopilla  and  the  interior  in 
connection  with  it ;  Taltal  and  interior.  Chanaral  and  interior, 
and  the  district  surrounding  Copiapo  itself. 

Copiapo,  receiving  its  entire  support  from  the  mining  indus- 
try, has  not  progressed  much  for  some  years,  on  account  of 
the  low  prices  that  have  been  paid  for  copper  ore.  Yet, 
notwithstanding  this,  there  has  not  been  any  notable  lessening 
in  the  population  of  the  town  itself.  In  some  of  the  mines 
where  work  has  been  stopped,  where  once  there  was  a  group  of 
Christians,  now  there  are  none.  But  there  are  many  very 
hopeful  points  where  there  are  large  groups  who  attend  with 
regularity  when  meetings  are  held.  In  Punta  del  Cobre  we 
have  the  most  promising  work  in  the  interior  of  Copiapo. 
For  some  time  there  had  been  regular  visits  made  there  every 
week,  but  on  account  of  the  reduced  room  where  the  meetings 
were  held,  and  the  distance  from  it  to  the  other  parts  of  the 
town,  there  were  but  few  who  attended;  but  early  in  the  year 
it  was  determined  to  look  for  a  room  which  might  be  rented 
that  would  be  more  central  and  where  more  people  might  ^be 
reached.  Soon  after  this  was  done  a  gain  in  the  attendance 
was  noted,  and  very  soon  with  the  help  of  the  collections  it 
was  possible  to  pay  the  entire  rent,  thus  making  the  work  in 
so  far  self-supporting.  Once  in  a  while  an  exhibition  with  the 
magic  lantern  helped  to  attract  attention,  and  so  from  the 
little  that  was  in  the  beginning  of  the  year  things  have  gone 
on  till  now  the  regular  attendance  is  from  80  to  100.  David 
Rey,  from  Copiapo,  makes  one  visit  a  week  and  that  on  Sun- 
day, and  as  a  rule  some  one  also  goes  up  to  help  in  the  Sunday-

school  and  to  preach  in  the  evening,  though  Juan  de  D. 
MoHna,  one  of  the  elders  of  the  Copiapo  Church,  is  responsible 
and  with  his  faithful  wife  are  the  real  workers  in  the  place. 
About  the  middle  of  the  year  a  fund  was  started  for  the  con- 
struction of  a  building  for  the  better  accommodation  of  the 
meetings,  as  the  rented  room  was  not  large  enough,  and  at 
present  the  sum  collected  is  nearing  $500,  which,  with  the 
gift  of  the  ground  made  by  Mr.  Dale,  is  nearly  half  enough 
to  finish  the  work.  When  all  needed  is  on  hand  the  work  will 
be  pushed  through  at  once.  The  place  chosen  is  more  or  less 
half  way  between  Punta  del  Cobre  and  Tierra  Amarilla,  and 
will  serve  for  as  long  as  the  mining  industry  continues  in  that 
part.  From  Copiapo  Mr.  Rey  also  visits  various  places  in 
the  surrounding  mining  districts. 

At  the  Transito  mine  the  work  has  become  promising 
through  the  sympathetic  cooperation  of  Mr.  Thomas  Peddar, 
the  manager  of  the  mines. 

In  the  Puquios  District  there  has  also  been  success  and 
much  interest,  notably  at  the  mine  Descubridora,  where  almost 
the  entire  population  of  the  place  attend  the  meetings. 

A  Typical  Visit. — One  visit  was  made  in  company  with  Rey  to  the 
San  Antonio  District  early  in  the  year.  The  trip  is  by  no  means  an 
easy  one,  as  since  the  year  when  the  flood  in  the  Copiap6  River  de- 
stroyed so  much  of  the  railroad  the  line  lacks  about  ten  miles  of  reach- 
ing San  Antonio  itself,  and  that  part  of  the  journey  must  be  made  in 
whatever  vehicle  may  be  at  hand.  On  the  day  that  we  made  our 
visit  it  happened  that  the  stage  did  not  come,  and  we  by  good  luck 
found  a  cart  going  that  way  that  had  come  down  with  baled  hay. 
Had  we  not  found  this  one  we  would  have  had  to  remain  in  the  open 
for  the  night,  but  the  cartman  was  willing,  and  so  after  about  three 
hours  of  jolting  such  as  we  had  never  passed  before  we  arrived  in  sight 
of  our  destination.  When  we  were  within  about  a  mile  of  the  town 
the  cart  stopped,  and  the  man  said  that  he  could  not  take  us  anyjfarther 
as  his  "patron"  would  be  very  angry,  and  that  we  must  remain  there 
till  we  could  go  into  the  town  and  get  some  conveyance.  Rey,  after 
about  an  hour,  was  able  to  get  a  small  cart  with  a  balky  mule,  and  after 
some  little  trouble  we  at  last  reached  the  famous  San  Antonio.  We 
found  that  the  place  consisted  of  one  street,  with  the  property  of  two 
men  on  either  side  of  the  street  comprising  the  entire  place,  and  the 
inhabitants  all  employed  by  one  or  the  other  of  the  farmers.  One  of 
these,  a  Senor  Rowe,  gave  us  a  good  reception  and  in  the  evening,  after 
having  canvassed  the  place  in  the  afternoon,  he  also  gave  us  a  large 
storeroom  where  we  could  put  up  our  lantern.  Most  all  the  people 
in  the  town  were  present  and  were  much  pleased  with  what  they  saw 
and  heard.  A  few  books  were  sold  and  some  subscriptions  for  El 
Heraldo  taken,  but  for  the  most  part  the  people  were  very  poor. 

In  Copiap6  the  church  is  one  of  the  first  that  was  established  in 
Chili,  but  the  many  who  have  been  received  as  members  have  in 
large  part  gone  to  other  parts,  but  with  all  that  the  church  is  slowly 
progressing.  The  Society  of  Christian  Endeavor  organized  by  Mrs. 
Garvin  continues  to  flourish,  and  has  been  the  means  of  helping  many 
to  learn  to  take  some  part  in  the  prayer  meeting.  By  the  study  of  the 
subjects  brought  before  the  society  for  consideration  the  Bible  becomes 
better  known.     Especially  have  the  younger  members  of  the  society 


452  CHILI— CONCEPCION. 

been  improved;  there  is  hope  that  many  of  them  will  soon  see  their 
way  clear  to  become  members  of  the  church.  The  young  ladies  of  the 
church  have  worked  most  faithfully  in  the  preparation  of  the  program 
for  the  Christmas  celebration,  showing  such  a  willingness  as  is  a  real 
stimulus  to  those  who  have  the  work  in  hand.  As  the  old  attendants 
go  away  that  have  begun  their  spiritual  life  in  Copiapo  new  ones  are 
found  who  take  their  places,  and  so  the  work  goes  on. 

Visits  were  made  to  Tocopilla  and  Taltal.  Of  the  latter 
Mr.  Smith  writes: 

More  than  a  year  had  passed  since  the  last  visit  and  they  were 
anxiously  waiting  for  the  dedication  of  the  new  church  building  built 
by  Mr.  Garvin  a  little  more  than  a  year  before.  It  was  now  all  finished 
and  in  order  and  the  dedication  service  took  place  the  second  Sunday 
in  the  month.  At  the  service  some  ninety  were  present,  no  more 
being  there  on  account  of  the  hour  at  which  it  was  held,  which  was 
I  P.M.  In  the  evening  at  the  Communion  service  there  were  125 
present,  and  it  was  difficult  to  find  seats  for  them  and  many  had  to 
remain  standing. 

After  a  Sunday  full  of  good  meetings,  with  Senor  Manuel  Herrera, 
the  pastor,  in  charge  of  Taltal,  a  visit  was  made  as  usual  to  the  Pampa. 
In  the  Taltal  Pampa  there  are  many  establishments.  There  is  the 
saltpeter  industry  and  many  mines  of  copper  as  well  In  most  all 
the  "Oficinas"  we  have  free  entry,  and  it  is  not  possible  to  attend  to 
the  places  where  we  are  invited  to  go,  so  the  ones  that  do  not  show 
any  inducements  are  left  alone.  Some  belonging  to  French  companies 
and  others  to  Chilians  are  not  so  open  as  those  of  the  German  and 
English  companies. 

Among  other  places  visited  was  Santa  Luisa,  of  which  Mr. 
Smith  writes: 

We  arrived  at  7  in  the  evening,  our  hands  and  faces  burned  almost  to 
blisters  by  the  sun  and  the  hot  wind  that  we  had  to  face  for  the  greater 
part  of  the  distance.  We  were  most  graciously  received  and  given 
rooms  in  the  house  of  the  employees.  In  this  place  is  Nicanor  Mora, 
a  very  good  man  and  one  who  has  shown  by  his  generous  spirit  and 
determination  to  forward  the  progress  of  the  Gospel  among  his  fellow- 
workmen,  that  he  is  truly  converted.  He  has  made  a  part  of  his  house 
into  a  meeting  room  for  the  meetings  in  the  Oficina,  and  holds  a  Sunday- 
school  every  Stmday  and  preaches  as  best  he  can  in  the  evening. 
Here  we  made  a  canvass  of  the  Oficina  with  the  books  and  invited  the 
people  to  see  the  views  of  the  lantern.  Then,  after  showing  them  to  a 
crowd  of  300  in  the  schoolroom,  I  took  the  lantern  to  the  Adminis- 
tration Building  and,  having  fixed  up  with  the  electrician  a  connection 
with  a  cluster  of  lights  in  the  lantern,  we  had  them  again  for  the 
employees  and  manager.  They  were  very  much  pleased_and  showed 
their  appreciation  by  the  way  in  which  we  were  encouraged  in  the 
work  that  we  were  attempting  to  do  among  the  men  in  the  place. 

CONCEPCION  STATION. 

TRAIGUEN.— Of  the  work  at  Traiguen  the  report  says: 

Words  seem  inadequate  to  convey  a  due  sense  of  what  marvels  the 
Lord  has  wrought  among  the  Httle  company  of  believers  during  the 
past  twelvemonth.     They  ended  the  old  year  and  began  the  new  in 


CHILI— CONCEPCION.  453 

the  throes  of  dissension.  A  scandal  was  followed  by  a  schism  and  the 
very  life  of  the  congregation  was  threatened,  but  this  has  been  largely 
overcome  by  the  devotion  of  the  pastor,  Sr.  Martf.  He  submitted 
to  indignities  without  a  mtirmur.  He  rallied  a  few  faithful  members 
about  him  and  besieged  the  throne  of  grace.  He  laid  every  personal 
consideration  aside,  and  with  heroic  selflessness  addressed  himself  to 
the  task  of  glorifying  the  name  of  the  Lord  where  it  had  been  blas- 
phemed. He  was  ever  ready  to  co-operate,  to  accept  counsel  and  to 
encourage  fellowship.  The  response  of  the  Master  in  whom  he  trusted 
has  been  wonderful.  The  Svmday-school  attendance  arose  by  leaps 
and  bounds  from  40  to  108,  until  the  chapel  was  overcrowded  and  they 
were  compelled  to  pray  for  a  larger  building.  Within  the  same  week 
they  had  secured  subscriptions  for  the  amount  required,  and  within 
three  weeks  they  had  erected  an  addition  to  the  building  which  enlarges 
it  to  almost  three  times  its  original  capacity.  At  their  Christmas 
entertainment  even  the  new  building  proved  too  small  to  accommodate 
the  number  that  sought  admission.  Within  the  past  four  inonths 
sixteen  have  united  with  the  church  and  there  is  scarcely  a  meeting 
without  so:ne  visible  result  of  the  Spirit's  efficacy.  They  have  adopted 
the  method  of  Christ  for  winning  disciples — personal  friendship  and 
fellowship  in  prayer — and  have  commended  this  mode  of  procedure  to 
us  all.  This  year  they  hope  to  improve  and  extend  their  chapel  still 
further  and  to  devote  all  their  ransomed  powers  to  the  erection  of  a 
monument  to  God's  faithfulness.  There  is  also  the  prospect  of  open- 
ing a  school  for  the  younger  children  of  the  congregation  in  the  course 
of  the  year. 

All  these  improveinents  have  been  realized  without  any  financial 
aid  from  the  Mission  treasury  and  they  have  agreed  to  increase  their 
contributions  toward  the  salary  of  the  pastor. 

LOS  SAUCES.— 

The  past  year  has  been  a  good  one  in  this  little  village  of  1,000  souls. 
The  "Escuela  Popular"  conducted  in  the  home  of  Sra.  Jara  has  been 
unprecedentedly  successful,  more  applications  having  been  received 
than  ever  before.  The  attendance  reached  forty-five  and  was  limited 
only  bjr  the  capacity  of  the  room  at  the  disposal  of  the  teacher.  A 
larger  and  better  room  has  been  rented  for  the  services  and  a  larger 
number  of  the  neighbors  have  attended.  A  building  of  their  own  will 
probably  be  procured  before  long. 

CHILLAN.— 

The  church  of  Chilian  has  shown  signs  of  vitality,  for  all  departments 
of  their  work  have  improved  to  some  extent.  Nine  new  members 
were  added  on  profession  of  their  faith,  a  campaign  of  publicity  was 
undertaken  and  the  work  of  Christ  has  been  advertised  through  the 
open-air  meetings  and  the  distribution  of  tracts.  About  3,000  copies 
of  the  latter  have  been  circulated  during  the  year.  They  opened  a 
show-window  where  Bibles  and  evangelical  literature  have  been  dis- 
played and  have  attracted  the  attention  of  large  numbers  of  passers- 
by.  The  pastor  concludes  his  report  to  me  in  these  significant  words : 
"It  is  curious  that,  neither  in  the  open  air  nor  alongside  the  Bible 
counter,  have  I  been  able  to  find  a  single  person  who  has  ever  read  the 
Bible  or  even  the  New  Testament!"  This  denotes  that  there  is  yet 
much  land  to  be  possessed  in  Chilian. 

Their  contributions  show  an  increase  over  last  year.  They  pay  $10 
per  month  toward  the  salary  of  the  pastor,  besides  the  rent  of  the 


454  CHILI— CONCEPCION. 

building.  They  have  also  established  a  fund  for  the  erection  of  their 
own  chapel.  The  acttxal  membership  is  twenty-nine.  According 
to  the  annual  report,  the  average  attendance  at  the  Sunday  evening 
services  has  been  sixty-five,  at  the  Sunday-school  sixty-two. 

PARRAL. — The  work  at  Parral,  which  was  hampered  by 
a  poor  location,  has  greatly  improved  by  being  moved  to  a 
more  suitable  and  central  location,  where  it  is  surrounded  by 
the  homes  of  workmen  who  are  free  to  attend  evening  meet- 
ings. This  was  purchased  for  $600  without  any  call  upon 
the  Mission.  The  lot  is  six  yards  wide  and  twenty-two  deep, 
affording  ample  room  for  the  construction  of  a  large  chapel. 
Meanwhile  they  are  using  the  building  which  stood  on  the 
land  when  we  bought,  an  adobe  structure  15  by  23  feet,  with 
accommodation  for  fifty  or  sixty  persons.  The  immediate 
effect  of  the  transfer  was  to  double  the  attendance  and  in- 
crease the  Sunday-school,  and  the  local  evangelist  writes 
that  the  results  of  the  change  have  exceeded  even  his  most 
sanguine  hopes. 

CONCEPCION. — Concepcion  is  the  centre  from  which 
missionary  activity  radiates  to  the  surrounding  towns.  In 
April  a  new  work  was  opened  in  Penco,  which  is  about  seven 
miles  distant  from  the  centre  of  Concepcion.  It  has  a  popu- 
lation of  about  4,000  and  has  been  dominated  by  the  clergy 
and  the  orders  for  centuries.  As  a  result  the  people  are 
densely  ignorant  and  bigoted.     Mr.  McLean  writes: 

Here  I  received  my  initiation  into  pioneer  work,  for  although  Sr. 
Moran  had  conducted  services  there  some  years  ago,  not  a  vestige  of 
the  work  remained.  There  has  been  stubborn  persecution  and  attempts 
at  violence  from  the  beginning,  and  we  continue  under  threatenings 
from  the  Roman  Catholic  Superior.  About  six  weeks  ago  we  were 
attacked  by  an  organized  mob  led  by  a  Dominican  friar,  who  stationed 
himself  at  the  door  and  forbade  entrance  under  penalty  of  excom- 
munication and  anathema.  The  two  helpers  who  accompanied  me 
were  dragged  out  into  the  street,  thrown  to  the  ground,  trampled  upon, 
cuffed  and  flogged,  but  nobody  offered  to  attack  me. 

Since  this  episode  we  have  not  been  molested  and  the  two  meetings 
of  the  week  are  orderly.  Ten  men  have  promised  to  contribute  to  the 
cost  of  the  chapel — men  who  were  not  even  sympathizers  six  months 
ago — and  it  is  probable  that  they  will  henceforth  provide  their  place 
of  meeting. 

The  midweek  meeting  usually  brings  out  twelve  to  twenty  men  and 
two  or  three  women  and  there  is  a  very  encouraging  prospect  for  the 
year  1909. 

There  are  a  number  of  evidences  of  growth  in  the  mother  church  this 
year.  We  have  received  fourteen  members  on  confession  and  nine  from 
other  bodies,  making  the  actual  membership  ninety-nine.  Of  this 
nimiber  fully  as  many  as  twentj'-five  reside  in  other  towns,  but  main- 
tain occasional  fellowship  thi-ough  correspondence  and  small  contri- 
butions. 

The  finances  of  the  church  are  encouraging  and  the  evangelistic 
fervor  continues.

BARRANQUILLA  STATION. 

The  year  covered  by  this  Report  began  with  the  Rev. 
Walter  Scott  Lee  and  Mrs.  Lee,  the  Rev.  Malbone  W.  Graham 
and  Mrs.  Graham,  Miss  Jessie  Scott  and  Miss  Lelia  Wiatt 
Quinby  on  the  field.  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Graham  left  in  April, 
their  resignation  having  been  accepted  by  the  Board.  Miss 
Scott  went  home  in  July  for  a  much-needed  furlough,  return- 
ing to  the  field  in  December.  During  her  absence  Miss  Quinby 
was  given  charge  of  the  girls'  school. 

CHURCH  AND  EVANGELISTIC  WORK.— This  was  in 

charge  of  Mr.  Graham  until  he  left,  when  Mr.  Lee  took  it  in 
connection  w4th  his  own  work  as  principal  of  the  boys'  school. 
Miss  Quinby  assumed  the  church  music,  which  had  been  under 
Mrs.  Graham's  direction. 

Attendance  and  attention  have  steadily  increased.  The  Svinday- 
school  attendance  rose  from  40  or  50  in  the  early  months  to  60  and  80 
in  the  last  Sundays  of  the  year,  the  Sunday-school  roll  increasing  from 
about  130  to  168.  Sunday  evening  services  increased  in  attendance 
from  50  or  60  to  80  and  sometimes  over  100,  and  the  Wednesday 
night  prayer  meeting  increased  from  25  or  30  to  60  and  80. 

A  feature  of  the  work  of  growing  importance  is  cottage 
meetings,  of  which  thirty-three  were  held  during  this  year. 
456 


COLOMBIA -BARRANQUILLA.  457 

From  May  until  the  end  of  the  year  these  meetings  were  held 
weekly,  but  one  being  omitted. 

These  cottage  meetings  have  been  under  Mr.  Lee's  direction,  with 
Miss  Quinby  always  present  to  plaj^  the  baby  organ  and  sing.  The 
two  elders,  Sr.  Coll  and  Sr.  Cortez,  take  turns  in  helping,  speaking  from 
fifteen  to  twenty  minutes.  The  room,  doors,  windows,  yard  and  street 
are  always  filled  with  listeners;  the  company  inside  is  respectful  and 
attentive,  the  crowd  outside  sometimes  noisy  and  disturbing  at  the 
beginning,  but  usually  quiet  and  listening  before  the  meetings  close, 
when  tracts  are  distributed  and  eagerly  accepted.  These  meetings  are 
held  in  any  home  that  is  offered,  and  are  often  at  points  remotest  from 
our  schools  as  a  centre.  Much  enthusiasm  has  been  aroused  and 
usually  several  houses  are  offered  for  the  same  meeting. 

It  is  our  policy  to  present  nothing  but  the  Gospel  and  salvation 
through  Christ.  It  is  early  to  estimate  results,  but  it  seems  to  the 
missionaries  that  the  Holy  Spirit  has  at  last  come  to  Barranquilla  and 
has  begun  his  work,  for  none  of  us  have  ever  seen  here  such  sustained 
and  growing  enthusiasm  among  the  people  over  the  evangelistic  work. 
We  earnestly  and  humbly  implore  the  churches  in  the  homeland  to 
pray  for  Barranquilla,  that  none  of  us,  missionaries  or  native  Christians, 
may  become  an  obstacle  to  the  working  of  the  Holy  Spirit,  but  that 
He  may  through  us  all  accomplish  His  wonderful  will. 

Inquirers'  classes  have  been  faithfully  held  weekly  from 
May  to  December. 

Mr.  Lee  taught  the  men  and  older  boys  on  Thursday  nights,  and 
Mrs.  Lee  the  women  on  Saturday  nights  and  the  younger  boys  and  girls 
on  Monday  afternoons  after  school.  No  new  members  are  received 
until  they  have  been  on  probation  at  least  six  months,  and  at  least 
three  months  of  that  time  in  regular  attendance  at  an  inquirers' 
class.  But  eight  have  been  added  to  the  church  roll  since  May,  making 
with  two  received  in  February  a  total  for  the  year  of  only  ten.  At 
the  end  of  the  year  the  total  number  tmder  actual  instruction  in  the 
inquirers'  classes  is  twenty,  of  whom  twelve  will  probably  be  received 
at  the  January  communion. 

But  two  special  services  were  held,  the  Christmas  Eve  program, 
which  brought  out  the  usual  crowded  house,  and  the  Watch  Night 
service,  with  fifty-five  of  the  more  consecrated  Christians  present  at 
this  solemn  meeting.  This  meeting  would  probably  have  been  larger 
but  for  a  heavy  rain. 

Mention  should  be  given  the  two  faithful  elders,  who  have 
^own  their  accustomed  cheerful  willingness  to  speak  when- 
ever asked,  each  one  leading  the  prayer  meeting  once  a  month, 
alternating  with  Mr.  Lee,  who  leads  every  other  week,  and  also 
speaking  whenever  asked  to  do  so  at  the  afternoon  cottage 
Sunday-school  and  the  weekly  cottage  meetings  on  Friday 
nights. 

Elder  Coll  has  been  continued  by  the  British  and  Foreign  Bible 
Society  as  its  only  colporteur  in  Colombia,  and  is  holding  truly  wonder- 
ful meetings  in  some  of  the  large  inland  villages  and  cities  in  his  itin- 
erary. At  some  of  these  meetings  he  has  had  300  and  400  in  attend- 
ance, and  brings  back  appeals  for  missionaries  to  establish  mission 
churches  and  schools.     Indeed,  open  doors  are  everywhere.     The  only 


458  COLOMBIA— BARRANQUILL  A. 

apparent  discouragement  in  the  work  is  lack  of  workers.  God  grant 
that  our  own  Board  or  some  other  Board  may  soon  send  them !  Across 
the  missionary  map  of  Colombia  might  be  printed  in  large  letters  the 
one  word   "OPPORTUNITY." 

From  May  to  October  Mrs.  Lee  and  Miss  Quinby  held 
cottage  Sunday-schools  Sunday  afternoons.  The  attend- 
ance varied  from  lo  or  12  to  over  60,  depending  upon  the 
locality  in  which  the  school  was  held.  These  are  to  be 
reopened  during  the  coming  year. 

Mr.  and  Mrs.  Lee  and  Miss  Quinby  have  made  as  many  pastoral 
visits  as  their  limited  time  allowed,  and  this  was  supplemented  by 
frequent  pastoral  letters,  typewritten  copies  of  which  were  sent  to 
every  church  member.  Elder  Coll  also  makes  calls  on  the  chvirch 
families  and  tries  to  inspire  more  faithfulness  in  service  and  greater 
consistency  in  the  Christian  life. 

In  September,  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Herbert  G.  A.  Lange,  of  Lon- 
don, came  to  Barranquilla  for  temporary  residence  as  sub- 
agent  for  Colombia  and  Venezuela  of  the  British  and  Foreign 
Bible  Society.  For  several  months  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Lange  gave 
assistance  in  the  English  services. 

Girls'  Boarding  and  Day-school. — School  opened  with  eigh- 
teen girls.  They  were  bright  and  promising  though  few  in 
numbers.  Some  came  from  wealthy  Catholic  families  and 
several  of  the  free  pupils  were  received  from  the  worthy  poor 
of  our  congregation. 

Our  school  has  many  odds  to  combat.  All  that  a  girl  is  supposed 
to  need  to  know  in  this  land  is  to  read  and  write  and  sew  and  embroider. 
Many  have  never  seen  the  inside  of  a  school  and  cannot  read  or  write. 
The  public  schools  have  no  attraction  because  of  disorder  and  Romish 
influence. 

Our  girls  come  for  a  few  months  or  at  most  a  few  years,  and  take 
more  interest  in  embroidery  than  in  their  books.  We  lose  many 
because  of  the  Bible  lesson  required  cverj^  day.  The  school  is  graded, 
making  two  teachers  necessary  for  primary  and  grammar  grade  work. 

Miss  Scott  is  the  missionary  in  charge,  and  she  ran  the  boarding 
department,  supervised  the  teaching  and  taught  two  hours  dail}^  her- 
self. In  July  she  left  for  a  much-needed  rest,  leaving  Miss  Quinby  in 
charge.  The  enrollment  for  the  year  was  fifty-three,  and  the  average 
attendance  about  thirty. 

The  school  closed  with  an  all-day  programme  of  songs,  recitations, 
dialogues  and  model  classes.  The  chapel  was  thronged  with  fond 
parents  and  friends,  who  perhaps  heard  recitations  from  the  Bible  for 
the  first  time.  The  display  of  embroideries  and  drawn  work  was  fine. 
To  win  Colombia  for  Christ  we  must  first  win  the  future  mothers  of 
her  citizens. 

The  Station  makes  special  mention  of  the  efficiency  of  Miss  Quinby 
in  the  girls'  school  during  the  last  half  year,  beginning  that  work 
with  its  heavy  responsibilities  after  having  been  in  the  country  less 
than  a  year. 

Boys'  Boarding  and  Day-school. — This  school  has  been  stead- 
ily regaining  the  numbers  lost  dtiring  Mr.  Lee's  furlough.     In 


COLOMBIA— BOGOTA.  459 

a  year  and  a  half  the  registration  was  raised  from  30  to  iii, 
and  the  attendanee  from  17  to  about  80,  besides  employing 
one  teacher  less  and  regaining  and  maintaining  the  school's 
record  of  entire  self-support.  This  was  done  in  the  face  Of 
such  opposition  as  this  school  has  never  before  had. 

A  so-called  Government  school,  supported  by  business  men,  native 
and  foreign,  was  opened  in  July,  with  a  German  of  no  mean  local  fame 
at  its  head.  Over  $1,000  in  gold  was  monthly  contributed  to  pay  the 
salaries  of  teachers  and  running  expenses.  It  was  free  to  boys,  and 
especially  advertised  to  attract  boys  of  the  better  class  for  a  High 
School  or  commercial  education.  The  boys  of  humble  birth  were 
discouraged,  though  not  actually  refused  admission.  This  movement 
threatened  to  draw  from  our  school  the  paying  element  and  leave  only 
the  free  pupils.  Nearly  all  of  our  boys  remained  loyal  to  otir  school, 
very  few  were  lost,  and  quite  a  number  of  new  pupils  were  matricu- 
lated during  the  last  half  year,  so  that  the  school's  financial  standing 
remained  firm,  though  it  was  put  to  the  added  expense  of  a  teacher's 
salary  to  fill  the  time  Miss  Quinby  had  given  to  the  boys'  school. 

Our  school  was  the  largest  in  the  city,  exceeding  its  chief  rival 
by  six  boys.  About  40  per  cent,  of  the  boys  were  free  pupils,  children 
of  the  worthy  poor.  Daily  Bible  lessons  continued  to  be  required  of 
every  pupil,  and  several  pupils  were  lost  because  of  this;  but  this  was 
partially  offset  by  a  new  regulation  giving  one  hour  daily  to  all  classes 
except  the  primary  for  the  study  of  English,  double  the  time  devoted 
to  that  study  formerly. 

The  clo.sing  exercises  were  held  November  17.  The  crowning 
features  of  the  day  were  the  orations  of  the  graduating  class  of  five 
boys  in  the  Scientific  course  of  the  High  School  department  and  the 
presentation  of  diplomas,  the  first  in  the  history  of  the  school,  now 
coinpleting  its  first  decade. 

In  the  school  family  there  were  but  eight  boarding  pupils  and  one 
native  teacher  besides  the  inissionary  family.  Of  breakfast  pupils 
(those  who  eat  the  midday  meal  in  the  school)  there  were  but  six, 
but  about  thirty-five  boys  had  their  midday  meal  sent  from  home. 
These  ate  in  the  school  dining  room  at  the  same  time  with  the  school 
family,  and  for  them  tables  covered  with  white  cloths  were  prepared. 

Mr.  Lee  finished  the  translation  of  Milne's  Plane  Geometry 
into  Spanish,  and  corrected  and  bound  eight  copies  of  type- 
written MS.  of  it  for  class  use,  Mrs.  Lee  writing  them  out  on 
the  typewriter. 

BOGOTA  STATION. 

Bogota,  the  capital  of  the  Republic  of  Colombia,  has  been 
occupied  as  a  Mission  Station  of  the  Presbyterian  Church  for 
more  than  half  a  century,  and  while  from  a  human  viewpoint 
there  has  been  no  very  marked  success,  it  will  take  more  than 
human  wisdom  to  make  anything  like  a  just  estimate  of  the 
results.  This  remark  may  apply  very  well  to  the  work  of 
the  past  year.  The  work  of  the  Station  consists  as  before  of 
an  evangelical  chtirch,  a  boarding  and  day-school  for  boys, 
and  a  like  school  for  girls.  The  first  was  under  the  care  of  the 
Rev.  T.  H.  Candor,  his  wife  being  absent  the  greater  part  of 


460  COLOMBIA— BOGOTA. 

the  year  on  a  visit  to  the  United  States ;  the  second  under  the 
care  of  the  Rev.  C.  S.  WiUiams  and  his  wife,  and  the  third 
was  under  the  care  of  Miss  Mary  L.  Freeman,  who  is  now  in 
the  United  States. 

The  Church. — The  church  worships  in  a  building  that  was 
bought  some  years  ago  and  fitted  up  for  church  purposes, 
and  although  it  is  not  all  that  could  be  desired,  it  furnishes 
a  place  for  services  and  is  large  enough  for  present  purposes. 

In  general  the  work  is  such  as  would  have  been  carried  on  in  a 
church  of  the  same  size  in  the  United  States,  and  while  no  special 
services  in  addition  to  those  indicated  have  been  held,  there  were  some 
additions  at  each  of  the  quarterly  communions  of  the  year. 

There  is  a  very  small  foreign  colony  in  Bogota,  but  it  includes  some 
persons  who  desire  at  least  one  service  a  month  in  English,  and  Mr. 
Williams,  in  addition  to  the  special  work  of  the  boys'  school,  has  taken 
charge  of  this  work.  The  attendants  have  expressed  their  apprecia- 
tion and  have  asked  to  have  the  services  continued  during  the  new 
year. 

Efforts  have  been  continued  to  develop  the  abilities  of  the 
Colombian  Christians,  and  induce  them  to  take  up  the  work 
of  extending  a  knowledge  of  the  Gospel  to  their  own  people. 

We  cannot  say  that  this  has  been  very  successful,  and  yet  we  ought 
not  to  say  that  we  are  discouraged  about  the  final  outcome.  There  are 
some  very  marked  difficulties  in  the  way  of  any  Colombian  who  enters 
this  work.  The  strongest  is  the  fact  that  such  a  person  becomes  at 
once  the  target  for  all  kinds  of  unjust  criticism,  and  is  suspected  of 
being  moved  only  by  the  hope  of  securing  employment  that  will  give 
him  financial  income,  thus  making  his  work  a  money-making  venture. 

The  Station  has  never  employed  any  one  in  this  work  in  the  past, 
and  has  not  held  out  the  hope  that  we  would  do  so  in  the  future, 
yet  members  of  the  Church  who  have  taken  any  active  part  in  the  work 
have  been  called  place-seekers.  The  utter  injustice  of  this  is  only 
equaled  by  the  injury  that  it  does  to  the  men  who  would  willingly  do 
more  than  they  do  if  they  were  not  so  rudely  and  unjustly  attacked. 

We  have  tried  to  inculcate  the  idea  that  Colombians  owe  it  to  their 
fellow-men  to  do  all  that  is  in  their  power  to  give  them  the  Gospel,  and 
that  if  their  fellow-Colombians  do  not  think  it  possible  to  set  them 
apart  from  their  daily  work  and  have  them  ordained  as  ministers  and 
support  them,  so  that  they  can  give  all  their  time  to  the  work  of  the 
Gospel,  this  does  not  relieve  them  from  the  responsibility  of  doing 
what  they  can  in  the  station  of  life  in  which  they  live.  We  are  inclined 
to  think  that  the  time  will  come  when  they  will  consider  it  a  privilege 
and  duty  to  do  this,  though  thus  far  we  have  not  found  men  who  were 
bold  enough  to  make  the  effort. 

Of  course  this  difificulty  exists  in  almost  every  mission  field 
in  the  world,  but  it  has  been  overcome  elsewhere  and  it  can 
be  overcome  in  Colombia. 

The  Boys'  School. — Mr.  and  Mrs.  Williams  had  been  in 
Colombia  only  a  few  months  when  they  moved  into  the  boys' 
school  building  and  began  to  prepare  for  the  year's  work. 

Although  the  school  meets  with  coinpetition  and  opposition,  it  has 


COLOMBIA— BOGOTA.  461 

been  continued  in  one  or  another  form  from  year  to  year  It  does  the 
work  from  the  primary  grades  up  to  what  would  be  called  high  school 
work  in  the  United  States,  and  is  divided  into  three  departments. 
For  primary  work  Miss  Bertilda  Lozano  was  employed.  She  is  a 
graduate  of  the  girls'  school  and  a  member  of  our  church.  She  did 
excellent  work  with  the  little  ones.  In  the  intermediate  room  Miss 
Widelmina  Rcick  continued  her  work.  She  is  also  a  member  of  the 
church  and  heartily  in  sympathy  with  the  work. 

The  superior  department  was  taught  by  M.  Echeverria,  who  has 
been  in  this  same  place  for  two  years,  and  although  he  retires  this  year 
to  enter  into  other  business,  his  place  will  be  filled  by  an  experienced 
teacher  who  is  in  sympathy  with  the  work  for  which  the  school  and 
church  stand.  Though  the  school  is  not  large  it  has  an  important 
place  in  the  work  of  the  Mission. 

Girls'  School. — 

Mrs.  Candor,  who  has  given  years  to  this  school,  was  in  the  United 
States  on  furlough  most  of  the  year.  This  left  the  girls'  school  in 
charge  of  Miss  Freeman,  Avho  had  been  working  in  the  school  for 
more  than  three  years  and  fully  understood  its  necessities.  This 
school  does  about  the  same  grade  of  work  as  the  boys'  school,  and  has 
its  primary,  intermediate  and  superior  departments,  each  vmder  the 
care  of  an  experienced  teacher. 

The  close  of  the  year  finds  Mrs.  Candor  again  in  Bogota  and 
Miss  Freeman  leaving  for  the  United  States. 

The  work  of  this  Station  has  its  dark  aspects,  as  when  a  pastoral 
from  the  Roman  Catholic  Archbishop,  issued  several  years  ago,  was 
republished  and  circulated  through  the  city.  It  warned  the  people 
not  to  attend  our  church  services  or  patronize  the  schools. 

On  the  other  hand  there  are  bright  features.  The  two  boarding 
schools,  one  for  boys  and  one  for  girls,  are  doing  excellent  work.  The 
church,  though  small,  has  faithful  members.  When  the  gladness  that 
lives  in  the  hearts  of  some  of  those  who  have  understood  the  message 
we  carry  is  shown  in  their  faces  and  their  conversation,  we  feel  that 
we  are  not  here  in  vain ;  and  when  others  show  their  ill  feeling  toward 
us,  it  is  consoling  to  know  that  there  are  hearts  that  beat  with  true 
friendship  and  hands  that  are  willing  to  uphold. 

The  little  company  in  the  olden  time  that  gathered  in  the  city  of 
Jerusalem  may  have  recognized  that  the  powerful  and  influential 
in  Church  and  State  were  not  with  them,  as  we  recognize  that  they  are 
not  with  us  here;  but  they  did  not  for  that  reason  falter  and  fail  to 
bear  their  testimony  to  as  many  as  would  listen  to  them,  and  we  do 
not  intend  to  falter  and  fail  to  bear  testimony  here  because  there  are 
those  who  oppose.  We  know  that  His  Word  is  necessary  for  the 
happiness,  the  comfort  and  the  well-being  of  the  nations,  and  so  far 
as  in  us  lies  we  will  try  to  make  it  known  to  our  fellow-men  here. 

One  of  the  members  of  the  little  Mission  church  said  recently  that  it 
was  a  surprise  to  him  that  the  Presbyterian  Church  in  the  United 
States  is  willing  to  keep  up  the  Mission  here,  when  so  few  show  their 
appreciation  of  the  work  and  even  openly  attack  it.  The  natural 
answer  was  given  at  once  by  another,  that  it  is  the  real  Christian  spirit 
to  work  for  those  who  do  not  care  for  us  and  do  not  understand  what 
we  are  trying  to  do  for  them,  and  although  this  may  be  hard  to  do,  it 
is  the  Master's  spirit. 

Here  is  a  place  where  work  can  be  done  without  very  much  hope 
of  triumphing  in  numbers,  and  yet  we  are  sure  that  he  who  labors  and 
he  who  gives  will  not  be  wholly  disappointed  when  the  end  comes. 


462  COLOMBIA— CARACAS. 

CARACAS  STATION, 

The  nine  years'  dictatorship  of  Castro,  which  has  ended  in 
his  departure  for  Europe,  has  left  deep  marks  on  all  hfe  in 
Venezuela. 

The  Station  also  has  thus  been  called  to  pass  through  experiences 
rare,  although  not  unique,  in  the  history  of  Missions.  Yellow  fever 
and  bubonic  plague  have  been  more  or  less  prevalent  during  the  year, 
yet  not  one  of  our  flock  has  been  touched,  and  not  a  hair  of  our  heads 
has  been  harmed.  For  this  and  many  mercies  we  bless  the  Lord  A 
bloodless  revolution — an  event  uniqvie  in  the  history  of  this  land  of 
earthquakes  and  revolutions — has  brought  back  from  exile  nearly  all 
the  refugees  from  the  wrath  of  the  autocrat,  and  apparently  a  com- 
munity of  adversity  and  suffering  have  bound  Venezuelans  of  all 
parties  not  only  to  seek  peace,  but  to  join  hands  in  support  of  the 
new  regime. 

In  the  midst  of  conditions  by  no  means  favorable  the  Gospel 
work  has  not  lost  ground,  save  apparently  in  the  market  value 
of  the  native  contributions.  But  in  the  scale  of  Him  who  sits 
over  against  the  treasury  the  people  have  given  more  than 
usual.  More  than  the  customary  number  of  services  and 
visits  have  occupied  time  and  strength  of  the  missionary, 
more  casual  hearers  just  within  or  without  the  door,  all  of 
whom  receive  papers  and  tracts.  Two  young  men  have  come 
out  on  the  Lord's  side,  two  more  are  on  probatioa,  others  are 
seriously  seeking  the  truth.  Two  members  have  emigrated 
to  Cuba  on  account  of  scarcity  of  employment  and  uncertainty 
of  the  political  situation.  Man}^  others  would  gladly  have 
gone  if  they  had  been  able.  The  distribution  of  the  Scrip- 
tures and  Christian  literature  has  gone  steadily  forward. 
The  Sunday-school  has  been  well  sustained,  and  with  day- 
school  gave  proof  of  progress  at  the  fiesta  of  the  Nativity. 
The  young  helper — still  a  student — has  advanced  in  his  studies 
in  a  most  satisfactory  degree,  and  proves  to  be  a  man  of 
steady  Christian  character  and  growth  in  general  usefulness. 

The  former  prejudice  against  us  as  Evangelicals  has  waned  con- 
siderably. The  utmost  order  in  the  pubhc  services  prevails,  whereas 
at  one  time  we  were  subjected  to  annoyance  at  the  door  or  in  the 
street,  instigated  by  the  priests.  But  this  clerical  company  has  re- 
ceived of  late — three  days  before  the  revolution — such  a  crushing,  pub- 
lic castigation  in  a  "pastoral"  from  the  Archbishop  of  Caracas  and 
Venezuela,  exposing  their  shortcomings  and  scandals  so  realistically 
and  microscopically  in  twelve  columns  of  the  principal  daily,  that  they 
arc  as  still  and  modest  as  church  mice.  The  much-moved  prelate 
might  have  chosen  his  own  official  organ  or  have  administered  the 
discipline  in  private,  but  he  chose  the  most  widely  circulated  secular 
newspaper,  and  filled  two  and  a  half  solid  pages — the  greater  part  of 
its  space — to  mirror  forth  the  hidden  (?)  shames  of  the  black-robed 
culprits.  The  effect  upon  the  general  public  has  been  marked,  and 
would  have  been  more  apparent  had  not  the  already  low  estimate  of 
the  clergy  prepared  the  way  for  revelations  however  sensational  in 
other  conditions  than  those  of  civil  convulsion  throughout  the  country 


COLOMBIA— STATISTICS.  403 

This  act  of  the  prelate,  in  language  and  form,  is  equivalent  to  the 
act  of  degradation  of  a  military  oOicer  and  his  expulsion  from  the  army. 
In  the  case  of  the  priest,  we  should  look  for  the  cleric  to  be  unfrocked 
and  sent  about  his  l)usiness.  But  nothing  of  this  kind  is  done.  He 
goes  through  his  formal  tasks  at  the  altar  as  usual. 

Now  is  the  day  of  emancipation  for  the  continent  of  practically  one 
language.  In  all  parts  liberty  of  worship;  liberty  for  a  Christian  Press; 
liberty  to  open  schools  of  all  grades;  liberty  for  hospitals,  for  orphanage 
and  training  schools  and  kindergartens.  "Behold!  I  have  set  before 
you  an  open  door!"  Here  is  the  "Continent  of  Opportvmity "  to  lay 
the  foundations  of  many  generations — a  continent  whose  riches  are 
attracting  every  year  more  iminigration.  We  need  to  do  more  for 
the  foimding  of  Christian  institutions,  the  forming  of  national  charac- 
ter, for  the  elevation  of  a  inighty  continent,  now  in  the  making,  and 
waiting  for  the  molding  of  the  Gospel  of  God  and  the  inbreaking  of  the 
Spirit  Creator.

niSSIONS  IN  SYRIA. 

Not  only  Syria  Missions  but  the  whole  Christian  world  has 
been  interested  in  the  great  events  that  have  taken  place  in 
Turkey  during  the  past  year.  On  the  23d  of  July,  1908, 
Said  Pasha,  representing  the  army  corps,  appeared  before  the 
Sultan  and  demanded  the  restoration  of  the  Constitution  of 
1876,  which  had  been  granted,  only  to  be  withdrawn  after 
a  short  trial.  The  Sultan  in  his  perplexity  called  in  the 
astrologers  and  assistants  and  asked  for  light.  After  a  time 
they  replied  that  it  was  contrary  to  the  doctrine  of  the  Koran 
that  any  ruler  by  his  action  should  cause  war  between  two 
bodies  of  Mohammedans. 

The  Sultan  immediately  dismissed  his  Cabinet,  leaving 
only  Said  Pasha.  After  waiting  an  hour  he  told  him  he 
could  go  too.  He  refused,  and  said  he  must  have  an  answer. 
Five  minutes  passed  by  in  silence,  when  the  Sultan  turned 
and  yielded  to  the  inevitable.  This  was  late  in  the  night,  and 
at  sunrise  of  the  next  morning  the  guns  announced  that  the 
long-desired  Constitution  was  granted.  As  the  news  flew  from 
one  end  of  the  land  to  the  other  the  scenes  beggared  descrip- 
tion.    Dr.  H.  H.  Jessup  wrote  from  Beirut: 

We  seem  to  be  in  dreamland.  Had  any  one  told  me  six  months  ago 
that  the  word  liberty  could  be  breathed  in  the  streets  of  Beirut,  I 
would  have  laughed  him  to  scorn.  To-day  the  city  is  full  of  the  cry, 
"Hurrah  for  Liberty!     Hurrah  for  Justice!     Hurrah  for  the  Sultan!" 

Two  Moslems  called  on  Dr.  Samuel  Jessup,  one  an  orthodox  Sheik, 
a  learned  man,  who  was  in  Constantinople  at  the  time  of  the  revolution, 
and  has  only  now  returned.  He  spoke  of  the  wonderful  way  all  these 
extraordinary  changes  came  about  and  said:  "This  thing  was  not  of 
man  or  men,  but  only  of  God.  No  hand  but  His  divine  hand  could 
have  wrought  all  this.  Praise  be  to  His  great  name!"  The  other, 
a  Moslem  Effendi  of  the  Persian  or  "heretical"  sect,  of  his  own  accord 
said  just  about  the  same  thing,  but  added  pessimistically:  "Only 
the  hand  of  God  can  keep  tip  this  state  of  things  and  transform  the 
corrupt  rulers  into  honest  men." 

The  latter  voiced  the  real  situation.  The  movement  is 
undoubtedly  of  God.  It  is  His  hand  that  has  turned  the 
key  and  granted  for  the  first  time  freedom  of  the  Press,  free- 
dom of  speech  and  freedom  of  travel.  Not  for  a  moment 
can  one  doubt  that  God's  voice  is  calling  the  Church  to  enter 
the  new  door  of  opportunity  in  Syria.  The  approach  to  the 
heart  of  the  Mohammedan  has  been  cleared  of  obstacles ;  but 
already  there  are  signs  that  the  new  wine  of  liberty  is  turning

the  heads  of  the  party  of  progress  and  reform,  that  powers 
suddenly  granted  may  be  misused,  and  that  young  Turkey 
is  in  danger  of  rushing  headlong  into  the  peril  of  revolution. 
John  Fiske,  in  I'eferring  to  the  five  years  that  succeeded  the 
American  Revolution,  called  them  the  critical  period  of  Ameri- 
can history.  Turkey  is  entering  on  the  same  stage.  No 
blood  has  been  shed  in  gaining  liberty;  may  none  flow  in 
maintaining  it. 

Just  what  part  the  Christian  missionary  has  had  in  bringing 
about  this  change  may  be  subject  for  debate,  but  that  he  is 
destined  to  have  a  large  share  in  making  the  new  Turkey 
there  can  be  no  doubt.  If  to  the  patience  and  gentleness 
of  Christ  be  combined  a  persistent  and  determined  faith  and 
loyalty  to  the  teachings  of  Jesus,  He  is  certain  in  the  end  to 
prevail  and  share  a  large  part  in  establishing  in  the  Turkish 
Empire  and  the  hand  of  the  Master  a  permanent  and  beautiful 
civilization.  A  reading  of  the  following  report  will  show 
that  in  the  faithful  work  of  the  past  year  the  members  of 
the  Syria  Mission  have  not  been  unmindful  of  the  chance  and 
are  alert  to  assume  the  new  responsibilities  that  the  new 
crisis  has  made. 


MISSIONS  IN  SYRIA. 

HISTORY. — The  Mission  was  first  started  in  Palestine 
about  1820,  by  missionaries  of  the  American  Board.  Owing 
to  the  state  of  the  land,  and  interruptions  from  wars,  pesti- 
lence and  massacres,  growth  was  slow  at  first,  and  the  main 
work  was  confined  to  Syria.  In  1870  the  Mission  was  trans- 
ferred to  the  care  of  the  Presbyterian  Board.  During  these 
eighty-five  years  less  than  150  Americans,  male  and  female, 
have  been  employed,  the  present  number  being  respectively 
fifteen    and   twenty-five.

Jessup,  Mrs.  William  Bird,  Miss  Emily  G.  Bird,  Rev.  Paul  Erdman  and 
Mrs.  Erdman.

S.  Nelson  and  Mrs.  Nelson,  Rev.  William  Jessup  and  Mrs.  Jessup. 

SYRIAN  PROTESTANT  COLLEGE.— The  Syrian  Pro- 
testant College,  situated  at  Beirut,  is  not  connected  with  any 
missionary  society  or  helped  by  its  funds,  but  it  is  a  direct 
outgrowth  of  tlise  Mission  in  Syria,  and  is  closely  affiliated 
with  the  Mission  and  related  to  its  work.  It  has  a  magnificent 
location,  and  in  its  Preparatory,  Collegiate,  Commercial, 
Pharmaceutical  and  Medical  departments  it  has  870  students. 
A  Training  School  for  Nurses  was  established  in  1905  in  con- 
nection with  the  College  Hospitals.  Catalogues  may  be  had 
by  applying  to  the  President,  Rev.  Howard  S.  BHss,  D.D.

SYRIA— BEIRUT.  469 

The  corps  of  instruction  and  administration  numbers  74; 
of  these  63  devote  all  or  some  of  their  time  to  teaching,  and  i  x 
are  engaged  in  the  conduct  of  the  business  affairs  of  the  insti- 
tution. Thirty-five  arc  from  America;  25  are  Syrians;  2  are 
Greek;  4  British;  2  are  Italians;  2  are  Swiss;  3  are  Arme- 
nians; I  is  Austrian. 

The  College  was  opened  in  Beirut  in  the  Autumn  of  1866. 
The  first  class  was  graduated  in  1870.  The  Medical  depart- 
ment was  organized  and  opened  in  1867,  the  Preparatory 
department  in  187 1,  and  ^he  School  of  Commerce  in  October, 
1900. 

MEDICAL  WORK.— J ohanniter  Hospital.— The  medical 
Professors  of  the  Syrian  Protestant  College  have  been  for 
thirty-six  years  the  sole  medical  attendants  of  this  institution. 
The  hospital  is  situated  on  the  bluff  overlooking  the  Bay  of 
St.  George,  in  a  terraced  park  of  about  four  acres.  The  main 
building  is  a  stately  edifice  with  a  central  block,  two  pavilion 
wings  and  a  rear  pavilion  connected  by  a  covered  glazed 
corridor.  The  central  block  contains  the  administration 
department,  the  operating  room,  the  pathological  laboratory, 
the  kitchen  and  various  apartments,  and  on  its  best  ventilated 
faces  a  number  of  wards,  most  of  them  looking  out  on  the  sea 
and  Mt.  Lebanon.  The  lower  story  of  the  rear  pavilion  is 
the  chapel  erected  by  American  friends  of  the  noble  Johanniter 
Order  and  of  the  Deaconesses  of  Kaiserswerth.  The  upper 
story  is  the  surgical  ward  for  men,  and  is  a  model  of  its  kind, 
having  windows  on  all  four  sides  and  the  most  perfect  system 
of  lighting  and  ventilation.  Another  building  furnishes 
accommodations  for  a  large  polyclinic,  another  is  isolated  for 
contagious  diseases,  and  still  others  for  laundry,  dead-house, 
gate-house,  etc. 

The  institution  is  owned  and  supported  by  the  Johanniter 
Order,  composed  of  the  flower  of  the  Protestant  nobility  of 
Germany,  with  the  son  of  the  Emperor  at  its  head.  The 
nursing  and  administrative  staff  is  furnished  by  the  Deacon- 
esses of  Kaiserswerth.  The  edifying  spectacle  of  the  co-opera- 
tion of  two  such  institutions  as  the  Johanniter  Hospital  and 
the  Syrian  Protestant  College  is  a  striking  testimony  to 
CEcumenical  Christianity,  resting  upon  the  unity  of  the  spirit 
and  the  bond  of  peace. 

BEIRUT  STATION. 

Miss  ToUes  returned  from  her  furlough  in  the  United  States 
early  in  September. 

Sickness  has  entered  the  home  of  three  of  the  Mission 
families,  but  God  has  graciously  healed  and  spared  valuable 
lives.     The  senior  member  of  our  Station  and  Mission,  Dr. 


470  SYRIA— BEIRUT. 

H.  H.  Jessup,  was  confined  to  his  bed  for  some  twenty  days. 
He  is  now  slowly  improving,  but  was  not  able  to  attend  the 
annual  meeting.  He  has  welcomed  to  Syria  every  one  of 
the  present  Mission  circle,  with  the  exception  of  Mrs.  Van 
Dyck  and  Mrs.  Bird,  and  his  memory  and  his  heart  hold  them 
and  all  their  children  and  children's  children  within  the  circle 
of  his  fatherly  affection  and  prayer. 

EVANGELISTIC— i?ciV/i^  Church.— This  marks  the  second 
year  of  the  Beirut  Church  on  its  nominally  independent  and 
self-supporting  basis.  When  the  two  congregations  came 
together  in  1906  it  was  on  a  rather  confused  agreement; 
several  important  matters  were  left  unsettled,  and  the  re- 
lations of  the  church  to  the  Mission  and  the  Presbytery  were 
not  clearly  defined.  There  is  now  a  church  financially  inde- 
pendent to  the  extent  of  the  pastor's  salary  and  some  congre- 
gational expenses,  but  out  of  line  with  all  other  churches  of 
the  Mission,  even  though  it  is  the  mother  church  in  the  central 
station,  occupying  a  manse  and  worshiping  in  a  building  both 
of  which  belong  unconditionally  to  the  Presbyterian  Board. 
The  members  of  Beirut  Station  have  adopted  the  kindhest 
attitude  possible,  that  of  ignoring  the  underlying  causes  of 
disagreement  as  well  as  the  property  questions,  and  of  regard- 
ing the  Beirut  Church  as  still  sustaining  right  relations  with 
the  Mission  and  the  Lebanon  Presbytery.  The  pastor.  Rev. 
Assad  A.  er-Rasi,  continues  his  services.  The  congregations 
are  larger  than  ever  and  the  church  is  not  infrequently 
crowded  to  its  full  capacity.  The  contributions  of  the  people, 
assisted  by  the  English  and  American  boarding  schools  and 
the  Sunday-school,  amount  to  over  12,000  piasters,  covering 
the  pastor's  salary  and  small  congregational  expenses.  The 
church  has  sustained  a  serious  loss  in  the  deaths  of  Mrs. 
Abdullah  Saigh,  one  of  its  most  useful  women,  and  Rev. 
John  Wortabet,  M.D.,  one  of  the  fourteen  charter  members 
who  organized  the  church  and  the  Protestant  community  in 
1847,  and  whose  death,  November  21,  1908,  closes  a  long  and 
unusual  life. 

The  Sunday-school. — -The  Sunday-school  under  the  superin- 
tendency  of  the  native  pastor  has  continued  to  flourish.  Of 
the  seventeen  classes  three  are  taught  by  American,  four  by 
English  ladies  and  ten  by  S3^rian  teachers.  The  attendance 
averages  150  and  their  contributions  amounted  to  1,050 
piasters,  making  the  sum  in  the  treasury  2,700  piasters.  At 
the  suggestion  of  the  Session  the  school  donated  500  to  the 
church  pulpit,  100  to  the  Helping  Hand  Society,  100  to  a  class 
of  poor  women  and  300  to  the  American  Bible  Society. 

The  annual  meeting  in  June  of  the  affiliated  Sunday-schools 
of  the  English  and  American  Missions,  when  600  to  700  chil- 


SYRIA— BEIRUT.  471 

dren  assemble  for  songs,  Bible  exercises  and  distribution  of 
prizes,  is  one  of  the  brightest  experiences  of  the  year. 

Christian  Endeavor. — By  means  of  entertainments  the 
Christian  Endeavor  Society,  which  began  the  year  with  a 
balance  in  hand  of  2,350  piasters,  added  another  2,400  to 
this,  and  after  spending  nearly  half  closes  with  a  balance  of 
nearly  2,400  piasters.  Some  difference  of  opinion  as  to  how 
this  should  be  spent  grew  into  rivalry  in  June,  with  the  result 
that  meetings  were  discontinued.  After  the  summer  vacation 
was  over  the  society  elected  new  officers  and  starts  its  new 
year  with  a  membership  of  twenty  active  and  three  associate 
members. 

The  Junior  Christian  Endeavor  has  been  under  the  care  of 
Mrs.  Hoskins  and  Mrs.  March.  It  has  an  average  attendance 
of  twenty. 

Mrs.  Hoskins  has  held  regular  meetings  with  the  girls  of  the 
Church  of  Scotland  Jewish  School,  and  also  gathered  her 
vacation  Sundaj^-school  in  vSuk-ul-Gharb  during  the  summer 
months.  The  highest  number  of  pupils  attending  the  latter 
was  150  and  the  lowest  75. 

Helping  Hand  Society. — The  Helping  Hand  Society  suffered 
its  greatest  loss  in  the  death  of  Mrs.  H.  H.  Jessup,  who  was 
its  organizer  and  President  from  the  first  meeting  in  1897. 
Miss  Jessup  is  the  new  President.  Meetings  were  held  with 
eighteen  active  and  six  honorary  members,  and  2,309  piasters 
were  collected  and  expended  and  123  garments  made  and 
given  away  to  the  poor. 

Christian  Temperance  Reading  Rooms. — At  the  death  of 
Mrs.  H.  H.  Jessup,  for  years  president  of  the  C.  T.  R.  R. 
Committee,  Prof.  W.  H.  Hall  was  elected  to  that  office,  and 
the  year's  work  continued  along  the  original  lines.  Between 
January  and  July  a  course  of  six  lectures  was  delivered,  to 
which  select  audiences  were  admitted  at  a  nominal  fee. 
Since  July,  when  the  proclamation  of  the  Constitution  took 
place,  half  a  dozen  other  reading  rooms  have  come  into  exist- 
ence and  newspapers  have  multiplied  with  every  change  of 
the  moon. 

Dr.  H.  H.  Jessup,  having  spent  several  years  collating  and 
selecting  materials  from  the  large  mass  at  his  command, 
reports  that  his  book  on  the  history  of  the  Syria  Mission  and 
personal  memories  of  his  long  life  in  Syria  is  nearly  completed. 

American  School  for  Girls. — Miss  Home  reports  fifty  board- 
ers with  eighty  day-pupils. 

There  are  many  evidences  of  spiritual  life  and  growth  in 
the  class  prayer  meetings,  the  King's  Daughters  and  the  Home 
and  Foreign  Missionary  Societies.  The  Home  Missionary 
Society  earned  623  piasters  by  working  banners  and  pennants 
for    boys    of   the    Syrian    Protestant    College.     The    Foreign 


472  SYRIA— BEIRUT. 

Missionary  Society  raised  700  piasters  ($25.00).  Six  of  the 
girls  entered  the  church  on  confession  of  their  faith  in  Christ. 
Letters  from  absent  graduates  telling  of  their  efforts  in  Christ- 
ian work  link  the  work  in  the  school  with  the  larger  work  in 
the  world. 

The  death  of  Madame  Josef  Churi,  a  Frenchwoman,  who 
had  served  the  school  with  unique  faithfulness  and  womanly 
dignity  for  more  than  forty  years  as  a  teacher  of  Piano  and 
French,  was  not  only  a  loss  to  the  school,  but  also  the  passing 
away  of  a  friend  to  every  interest  of  the  work  during  her  long 
connection  with  it. 

The  following  extract  from  the  school  report  is  of  special 
interest : 

Shortly  before  the  close  of  the  school  year  Dr  Hoskins  spoke  to  the 
girls  about  their  responsibility  to  give  the  Gospel  to  those  who  have  it 
not.  Later  he  sent  us  the  following  pledge:  "We  whose  names  are 
written  underneath  will  take  to  our  homes  a  copy  of  the  Arabic  Bible, 
and  make  an  earnest  effort  to  teach  some  one  to  read  during  our  sum- 
mer vacation.  And  if  we  are  not  able  to  accomplish  that  we  will  at 
least  read  the  Bible  to  those  who  cannot  read,  to  those  who  are  sick 
and  to  those  who  are  blind."  This  pledge  was  signed  on  the  last 
Sunday  before  commencement  by  thirty  of  the  girls. 

After  school  opened  we  held  an  experience  meeting,  at  which  it 
was  found  that  only  three  girls  had  failed  to  make  an  effort  to  keep 
the  pledge. 

MAAMALTAIN. — Evangelical. — Services  were  held  through- 
out the  year.  Owing  to  a  reconciliation  of  the  people  with  the 
Patriarch  the  number  of  adults  has  lessened.  Last  year  the 
average  was  forty,  and  this  year  about  the  same  number  includ- 
ing the  children.  A  service  was  held  every  Sunday  during 
the  summer  in  the  sanatorium.  The  number  of  adults  varied 
from  twenty  to  fifty. 

Educational. — There  were  thirty-three  pupils  in  our  school, 
eight  coming  daily  by  train  from  Juneh.  We  do  not  expect 
to  exceed  this  number  for  lack  of  accommodations. 

Medical. — A  clinic  was  held  regularly  in  Shebaniyeh  and 
was  largely  attended  by  Druses.  This  location  is  a  central 
one  for  work  among  the  Druse  villages. 

The  sanatorium  for  patients  suffering  from  tuberculosis 
was  opened  at  Shebaniyeh  on  June  16.  Jews,  Moslems,  Greek 
Orthodox,  Greek  Catholics  and  one  Protestant  applied  for 
admission.  This  mountain  sanatorium  was  closed  in  the 
Autumn  and  preparations  made  for  building  upon  the  site 
of  the  Winter  quarters  on  the  Juneh  Bay.  The  foundation 
and  cornerstone  of  the  Administration  Building  are  ready, 
the  cistern  is  being  built  and  three  pavilions  will  still  be 
required  for  nurses  and  patients  to  sleep  in. 

THE  PRESS. — Mr.   Freyer  reports  a  second  best  record 


SYRIA— BEIRUT.  473 

year  for  the  Press  work,  more  pages  printed,  more  volumes 
bound,  more  books  sold  and  shipped  and  the  Bible  still  far 
away  in  the  lead. 

The  pages  printed,  44,589,571,  exceed  last  year  by  over 
20,000,000  of  pages  and  push  the  average  for  the  last  ten 
years  higher  than  ever.  We  are  reminded  that  when  the 
American  Board  celebrates  its  centennial  in  1910  the  Beirut 
Press  will  have  reached  its  billion  mark  of  pages,  the  record 
standing  at  this  time,  in  1908,  923,345,755. 

The  second  volume  of  the  Old  Testament  Commentary  on 
Leviticus,  Numbers  and  Deuteronomy,  edited  by  Rev. 
H.  H.  Jessup,  is  completed  and  on  sale.  The  Mission  grate- 
fully acknowledges  the  help  given  by  the  American  Tract 
Society  in  this  item,  and  hopes  that  further  help  may  be  forth- 
coming in  producing  other  volumes  of  Old  Testament  series. 
Mr,  March  has  the  volume  on  Isaiah  ready  for  the  final 
revision  and  correction. 

The  Employees'  Deposit  Fund  has  made  its  first  decennial 
sharing  of  savings  and  seventeen  employees  of  the  Press 
received  64,647  piasters  ($2,308.08)  and  have  begun  again  to 
save. 

One  of  the  most  important  needs  of  the  Press,  however,  is 
a  Publication  Fund  to  be  used  in  the  production  of  new  books 
and  tracts  and  periodicals.  For  many  years  the  Board 
allowed  an  annual  grant  of  $1,000,  and  during  the  same  period 
the  Religious  Tract  Society  of  London  was  granting  $700  and 
the  American  Tract  Society  a  smaller  sum.  This  grant  from 
the  Board  ceased  in  1885  and  the  Religious  Tract  Society 
gradually  reduced  its  help  until  eight  years  ago  when  it  ceased 
altogether,  and  the  same  was  true  of  the  American  Tract 
Society.  The  American  Tract  Society  has  recently  begun  to 
help  again,  the  Religious  Tract  Society  allows  all  proceeds  from 
sales  to  be  applied  to  binding  their  unbound  stock.  The 
changed  circumstances  in  Turkey  have  accentuated  the  need, 
and  it  is  hoped  the  Churches,  through  the  Board,  can  give 
at  least  a  portion  of  what  is  needed  in  order  to  do  anything 
worthy  of  the  immediate  present  and  the  more  distant  future. 

THE  NESHRA.— Dr.  Hoskins  writes: 

The  A'eshra  has  rounded  out  forty  years  under  the  aid  regime  and 
welcomes  this  year  of  wonders  with  as  much  joy  as  the  most  ardent 
patriot  in  the  empire.  The  Censor  exercised  his  malign  coiitrol 
over  us  from  January  till  the  23d  of  July.  His  ruling  passion  remained 
strong  to  the  bitter  end,  for  on  that  very  day,  the  last  of  his  power, 
he  came  to  the  Press  and  collected  his  last  backshish.  The  verj''  next 
day,  the  24th  of  July,  came  the  news  of  the  Constitution,  and  he  was 
left  without  a  function  and  shorn  of  every  shred  of  his  former  malig- 
nant power,  we  trust  forever. 

One  of  our  first  delightful  privileges  was  to  look  up  the  pictures

and  articles  that  he  had  rejected  with  his  merciless  blite  pencil,  and  for 
several  weeks  we  hailed  as  old  friends  back  from  exile  "The  Burning 
of  the  Books,"  "Mission  Work  in  India,"  the  picture  of  "Eliot  Preach- 
ing to  the  Indians,"  rejected  because  Eliot's  head-dress  resembled  a 
turban,  and  Mr.  Roosevelt  "Addressing  the  Great  Audience  from  the 
Steps  of  the  Capitol"  at  Washington  on  his  inauguration  day,  rejected 
because  the  change  of  Presidents  in  the  great  Republic  might  suggest 
to  otherwise  innocent  minds  of  the  Ottoman  Empire  the  necessity  or 
possibility  of  a  change  of  rulers  here.  A  certain  fanatical  Moslem 
journal  in  this  city  in  a  series  of  articles  on  the  Moslem  world  had 
claimed  365,000,000  of  the  earth's  population  for  that  faith.  Our 
most  reliable  figures  give  them  only  236,000,000  and  we  were  glad  to 
relieve  our  minds  at  once  of  that  extra  129,000,000.  Already  we  have 
detected  exj^ressions  of  fear  lest  we  should  take  up  an  active  contro- 
versial attitude  after  many  3^ears  of  repression.  But  we  prize 
only  the  privilege  of  telling  the  truth  as  we  see  it  without  attacking 
anyone,  and  of  setting  forth  clearly  our  faith  in  the  person  of  Christ 
without  having  creed  mutilated  by  the  Censor  in  the  interest  of  Moham- 
medanism. 

LEBANON   STATION. 

The  changes  in  the  personnel  of  the  Station  have  been 
occasioned  by  the  removal  of  Rev.  and  Mrs.  Doolittle  to  Sidon, 
the  coming  of  Rev.  and  Mrs.  Erdman  from  Tripoli,  the  depart- 
ure of  Rev.  William  Jessup,  D.D.,  and  his  family  on  their 
furlough,  the  marriage  of  Miss  Elizabeth  Curtis,  who  had 
spent  several  years  in  the  families  of  Mr.  William  Jessup  and 
Mr.  Doolittle  as  teacher,  to  Dr.  David  Torrance,  of  the  United 
Free  Church  Mission  in  Tiberias,  and  Dr.  Carslaw's  sudden 
illness,  an  attack  of  paralysis  incapacitating  him  for  work 
for  several  months. 

EVANGELISTIC— The  report  says: 

During  the  year  passed  Lebanon  Station  has  cared  for  thirty-three 
out-stations  with  forty  preaching  places  where  the  sacraments  have 
been  administered,  and  it  has  conducted  forty  dav-schools  besides  the 
two  boys'  boarding  schools  in  Suk-ul-Ghurb  and  Shweir.  The  four 
ordained  Syrians  have  been  a  great  help  in  their  different  districts. 
We  are  glad  to  report  the  ordination,  in  accordance  with  the  action  of 
Presbytery,  of  a  fifth,  M.  Amin  Fehd  of  Abeih,  the  faithful  assistant 
of  Mr.  Bird  up  to  the  time  of  his  death. 

The  nine  churches  of  Lebanon  Presbytery  raised  during  the  year 
27,173  piasters  and  expended  27,600  in  self-support,  the  small  excess 
of  expenditure  coming  out  of  a  considerable  balance  in  hand  from  last 
year.  Nearly  one-half  this  sum,  or  12,200  piasters,  went  toward  the 
preachers'  salaries  and  the  remainder  to  general  expenses,  repairs, 
and  benevolence.  The  nine  chtirches  reported  552  members  present 
and  173  absent  in  foreign  lands  and  a  gratifying  number  of  additions 
on  confession  of  faith,  all  but  one  of  the  churches  reporting  some  new 
members.  Those  added  during  the  year  numbered  fifty-five,  just 
10  per  cent,  of  the  membership  present  on  the  field.  The  average 
annual  addition  for  the  five  years  previous  to  this  was  forty-two, 
the  year  iqo6  showing  a  total  of  fifty-six,  one  more  than  this  year. 

In  the  Zahleh  Church  the  New  Year's  sunrise  prayer  meeting  was 
attended  by  over  forty,  and  the  Week  of  Prayer  meetings  brought  out 


SYRIA— LEBANON.  475 

considerable  interest.  On  Sunday,  Januar}''  12,  nine  were  received 
into  the  church.  On  the  first  Sabbath  of  the  new  year  the  Sunday- 
school  of  about  190  took  up  its  record  collection,  548  coppers  (about 
$1.25).  With  the  Sunday-school  collections  of  the  previous  year 
and  some  outside  help  a  good-siz.cd  bell  was  purchased  and  erected 
in  the  boj-s'  school  property,  where  it  now  rings  out  its  daily  call  to 
over  100  boys.  This  day-school  was  somewhat  redticed  in  size  last 
year  through  the  determined  elTorts  of  the  Greek  Catholic  Bishop  to 
break  it  up  entirely.  He  had  bought  back  money  with  him  from  a 
visit  to  Brazil  and  the  United  States  and  opened  a  day-school  not  far 
from  ours  with  a  number  of  lay  teachers  and  considerable  advertise- 
ment. Wc  have  no  fault  to  find  with  the  opening  of  another  school — 
there  is  room  enough — but  the  methods  used  to  take  boys  out  of  our 
school  were  not  exactly  of  the  loftiest.  For  example,  the  butcher  who 
supplied  the  Bishop  with  his  meats  was  given  to  understand  that  the 
money  due  him  would  not  be  furthcoming  txnless  he  took  his  boy  out 
of  the  Protestant  school  immediately.  A  curious  thing  about  this 
whole  affair  is  that  the  Bishop,  who  is  of  the  Mughabghab  family, 
is  a  near  relative  of  the  head  teacher  in  the  British  Syrian  girls'  school 
here  and  also  of  the  assistant  teacher  in  our  boys'  school,  the  very 
school  he  was  trying  to  break  up.  But  his  zeal  was  short-lived,  for 
the  new  year  has  opened  with  a  crowded  school  for  us,  and  to  the  priests 
who  were  sent  to  drum  up  pupils  some  of  the  parents  whose  boys  were 
in  our  school  replied:  "Why  do  j'^ou  try  to  compel  us  to  send  our 
children  to  you;  don't  you  know  that  these  are  days  of  freedom  now?" 
— one  of  the  results  of  the  bloodless  revolution  of  last  July. 

Meetings  for  women  were  held  weekly  during  the  Winter  at  different 
houses,  taking  the  form  of  Bible  readings.  These  occupied  most  of 
an  afternoon  and  all  were  free  to  take  part.  Some  twenty-five  differ- 
ent women  were  present  during  the  Winter  with  an  average  attendance 
of  from  eight  to  ten,  and  much  interest  was  shown.  The  Sewing 
Society  was  held  as  usual  with  an  attendance  of  from  twenty  to  thirty, 
and  some  thirty  garments  were  distributed  to  the  poor.  A  weekly 
Sunday-school  teachers'  meeting  was  also  held. 

A  Reading  Room  was  opened  early  in  the  Summer  in  one  of  the 
shops  in  the  market.  A  small  library  was  installed  and  the  Neshra 
and  other  papers  supplied  the  news  of  the  day.  An  awning  of  leaves 
in  front  of  the  place  shaded  a  long  table  with  side  benches  and  chairs 
and  made  an  airy,  attractive  place  on  hot  days.  A  jar  of  fresh  water 
was  always  at  hand.  Often  there  was  a  daily  attendance  of  thirty 
or  more  readers  and  visitors,  giving  M.  Rashid  Kenaan,  the  one  in 
charge,  opportunity  for  coming  into  touch  with  varied  personalities. 
Thus  some  young  men  at  least  were  drawn  away  from  the  temptations 
of  the  shops. 

In  the  Siik-ul-Ghnrb  Church  there  has  been  a  deepening  of  earnest- 
ness in  the  individual  studj^  of  the  Scriptures  and  in  a  desire  for  the 
working  of  the  Spirit  in  the  hearts  of  the  members,  and  as  a  conse- 
quence a  greater  unity  and  harmony  in  the  church.  The  preacher 
in  Schweijat  reports  that  a  Danish  worker  who  came  there  in  the  Sum- 
mer has  been  holding  meetings,-  and  some  fifteen  persons  have  been 
speaking  with  expressions  that  no  one  could  understand,  and  hundreds 
have  attended,  most  of  them  out  of  curiosity.  Most  of  the  people 
attribute  the  manifestation  to  a  kind  of  hypnotism,  but  those  interested 
claim  it  is  the  descent  of  the  Holy  Spirit  and  the  speaking  with  tongues. 
Most  of  the  fifteen  are  youth,  and  some  of  them  continued  talking 
while  in  an  unconscious  state  nearly  three  hours.  The  occurrence  has 
made  a  great  -stir  in  Shweifat  and  has  awakened  the  attention  of  many. 
The  preacher  hopes  it  may  result  in  a  blessing  in  arousing  the  people, 
whatever  may  be  the  secret  of  it. 

The  Reading  Room  and  Book  Store  in  Zahleh  has  been  well  patronized 


476  SYRIA— LEBANON. 

during  the  year.  Its  location  in  the  very  centre  of  the  chief  market 
makes  it  accessible,  and  many  are  grateful  for  its  advantages.  Black- 
gowned  priests  have  been  among  its  visitors  at  times.  One  of  its 
indirect  influences  is  illustrated  by  the  following.  During  the  summer 
a  young  man,  originally  of  Biskinta,  but  for  years  in  business  in  Egypt, 
was  spending  his  vacation  in  Zahlch,  and  became  a  regular  attendant 
of  the  reading  room,  and  through  it  became  interested  in  coming  to 
our  church  services.  Before  he  left  he  was  very  eager  to  have  us  open 
a  similar  reading  room  in  his  native  town,  Biskinta,  and  he  offered  us 
a  house  there  rent  free,  but  for  various  reasons  we  were  unfortunately 
unable  to  accept  of  his  offer. 

The  preacher  in  Deir-el-Koinr  reports  that  a  number  of  Maronites 
are  attending  the  services  and  showing  much  interest.  He  attributes 
it  partly  to  the  fact  that  he  and  a  prominent  Protestant  have  joined 
a  general  benevolent  society,  established  to  help  the  needy,  and  the 
members  have  come  to  place  great  confidence  in  them  and  their  judg- 
ment. We  rejoice  to  hear  of  incidents  in  various  places  that  show 
the  reputation  for  honesty  and  straightforwardness  and  reliability 
that  the  Protestants  as  a  body  have  gained.  The  people  of  the  Deir 
have  on  several  occasions  chosen  our  preacher  to  represent  them, 
either  alone  or  with  others,  as  this  summer  in  the  visit  of  a  deputation 
to  the  Governor  of  Lebanon. 

One  of  our  experienced  teachers  makes  a  statement  which  has  wide 
application  to-day  in  Syria.  He  says:  "Many  here  acknowledge  the 
truth  of  the  Evangelical  faith,  but  for  worldly  reasons  refrain  from 
showing  themselves."  How  like  St.John's  statement:  "Even  of  the 
rulers  many  believed  on  him;. but  because  of  the  Pharisees  they  did 
not  confess  it,  lest  they  should  be  put  out  of  the  synagogue;  for  they 
loved  the  glory  that  is  of  men  more  than  the  glory  that  is  of  God." 
John  12  :  42,  43.  It  is  one  of  the  results  of  Evangelical  preaching 
and  teaching  that  do  not  appear  in  any  statistics,  but  surely  it  all 
enters  into  the  preparing  of  the  way  for  the  coming  of  His  kingdom. 
At  Baalbec,  Kherbeh  and  Aitenith  the  work  has  been  carried  on 
successfully.  At  the  latter  place  there  has  been  a  renewing  of  the 
work  and  several  men  have  united  with  the  church,  one  of  them  an 
interesting  character.  He,  a  bigoted  Maronite,  had  spent  some  years 
in  one  of  our  Southern  States  and  there  had  become  somewhat  enlight- 
ened and  had  tasted  free  institutions.  On  his  return  he  welcomed 
visits  from  the  preacher  from  Sughbin  and  allowed  him  to  hold  ser- 
vices in  his  house.  He  was  a  fearless  outspoken,  and  decided  kind  of 
a  man,  and  soon  determined  to  come  out  openly,  and  in  him  was 
something  of  the  spirit  of  the  early  Reformers.  In  his  house  were 
many  pictures  of  the  saints  such  as  they  worship.  One  day,  quite  on 
his  own  motion,  he  tore  them  from  the  walls  and  broke  them  in  pieces, 
frames  and  all,  and  made  a  fire  of  the  fragments  in  front  of  his  house. 
It  of  course  made  a  great  stir  in  the  village,  and  were  it  not  for  the  fact 
that  he  was  of  an  influential  family  it  would  have  fared  ill  with  him 
from  some  of  the  people. 

During  the  year  some  extensive  and  important  repairs  have  been 
made  in  several  places.  A  side  wall  of  the  Meshghureh  Church  was 
torn  down  and  substantially  rebuilt.  In  Sughbin  the  low,  always 
damp  floor  of  the  residence  part  of  the  church  was  renewed  and  raised, 
and  later  the  floor  of  the  church  also,  the  preacher  helping  much  in 
the  work  with  his  own  hands.  In  Deir-el-Komr  one  wall  and  an  arch 
had  to  be  renewed,  and  stone  pavement  floors  were  put  in,  giving  a  new 
setting  of  sightliness  and  cleanliness  to  the  schools. 

In  the  two  comparatively  yoimg  and  encouraging  out-stations  of 
KhinsJiareh  and  Mitruj  new  building  has  been  undertaken,  the  people 
taking  a  gratifying  initiative  and  we  helping.  Out  of  the  gift  of  Miss 
Gould  through  Mr.  Jessup  a  year  ago,  it  was  decided  last  Spring  to 


SYRIA— TRIPOLI.  477 

help  Khinshareh  with  15,000  piastei's,  the  people  having  pledged  nearly 
one-half  as  much  (part  in  the  gift  of  a  line  site  in  a  mulberry  grove, 
and  part  in  so  many  days  of  labor,  the  brethren  there  being  mostly 
experienced  builders  and  one  of  them  an  experienced  contractor) . 
The  15,000  piasters  is  to  be  handed  over  on  the  completion  of  the  build- 
ing and  the  presentation  to  us  of  the  deed  in  the  name  of  the  Board, 
the  latter  arrangement  being  according  to  their  own  desire.  Late 
in  the  Summer  ground  was  broken  and  the  foiindations  laid,  and  at 
the  time  of  a  recent  visit  the  walls  were  nearly  completed.  We  are 
glad  to  record  here  the  helpfulness  of  Mr.  and  Mrs.  March  and  their 
family  in  the  work  in  Khinshareh,  where  they  have  spent  the  last  two 
summers,  especially  the  work  among  the  women. 

In  Muruj,  a  Maronite  village,  the  brethren,  few  but  earnest,  with  the 
help  especially  of  one  prominent  and  enlightened  Maronite,  had  gone 
ahead  and  taken  the  first  steps  in  the  purchase  of  a  building  for  the 
school  and  services,  calling  on  us  for  help  in  certain  needed  changes 
and  repairs  only.  The  school  was  actually  in  the  building  for  a  time, 
but  finding  it  impossible  to  get  a  clear  title,  at  our  advice  they  dropped 
it.  All  Summer  they  have  tried,  against  much  opposition  and  diffi- 
culty, to  get  hold  of  some  other  suitable  place,  but  in  vain.  Finally 
this  very  friendly  Maronite  has  consented  to  sell  a  piece  of  his  mulberry 
orchard  in  the  very  centre  of  the  village  at  a  real  sacrifice  financially, 
and  work  in  the  quarry  has  begun  in  preparation  for  the  building. 
Inasmuch  as  they  have  now  to  build,  they  need  greater  assistance  from 
this  special  fund  in  our  hands,  but  they  themselves  are  ready  to  do 
even  more  than  in  the  first  attempted  purchase.  Some  will  give 
money,  others  who  are  builders  will  give  of  their  labor.  It  is  all  most 
encouraging. 

With  all  gratitude  for  the  blessings  of  the  year  and  the  tokens  of 
growth  in  the  work  we  look  forward,  earnestly  desiring  the  greater 
blessings  that  lie  before. 

EDUCATIONAL.— The  forty  day-schools  in  some  thirty- 
two  different  towns  and  villages  in  the  Lebanon  and  the  B'kaa 
showed  good  progress  for  the  year.  The  pupils  have  paid  in 
about  33,500  piasters  in  fees,  with  an  attendance  of  1,790 
boys  and  girls. 

TRIPOLI  STATION. 

The  Station  was  reinforced  during  the  year  by  the  arrival  of 
Dr.  Ara  Elsie  Harris  who  came  to  join  her  father  in  his  med- 
ical work.  On  March  13,  little  Miss  Barbara  Catherine 
Nicol  started  her  long  apprenticeship  in  the  foreign  mission- 
ary service.  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Nelson  left  in  April  for  their 
furlough  in  the  United  States  and  Mr.  Ernest  March,  who  has 
taught  English  during  the  past  year,  also  went  to  the  United 
States.  The  year  has  passed  with  scarcely  any  sickness  among 
the  members  of  the  Station,  a  year  in  which  every  member 
was  enabled  to  work  without  interruption  of  any  kind.  We 
quote  from  the  report  as  sent  from  the  field: 

EVANGELISTIC. — Tripoli  Church. — For  several  years  past  this 
church  has  had  no  pastor,  and  its  pulpit  has  been  supplied  by  the 
various  teachers  and  tl^  missionaries.  But  there  has  been  great  need 
for  a  man  set  apart  for  pastoral  work,  with  free  time  for  visitation  and

work  in  the  homes  of  the  people.  So  the  Presbytery  assigned  to  this 
post  Rev.  Habib  Subhiyeh,  of  Aleppo,  who  has  entered  into  it  with 
much  zeal,  and  we  hope  for  large  results  from  his  ministry. 

The  Committee  on  Bible  Distribution  reported  contributions  from 
every  church  except  one,  a  total  of  almost  1,000  piasters.  The  Com- 
mittee purchased  Bibles  from  the  Tripoli  store  at  half  price,  and  in 
almost  every  case  sold  these  Bibles  for  stifficient  to  pay  for  their  cost, 
leaving  the  contributions  from  the  churches  almost  untouched.  So 
it  was  decided  to  devote  a  part  of  this  income  to  securing  the  services 
of  a  colporteur  for  a  part  of  the  year,  and  this  colporteur  has  already 
entered  upon  his  duties  in  connection  with  the  Home  Mission  Commit- 
tee. Among  the  purchasers  at  Hamath  was  the  Moslem  Judge  of  the 
Turkish  Court. 

EDUCATIONAL.— rrz>o/?  Girls'  School.— The  Tripoli  Girls' 
School  opened  the  year  with  the  largest  attendance  in  its  history, 
sixty-eight  boarders.  In  preparation  for  their  coming  the  school  was 
thoroughly  renovated  and  the  entire  exterior  repainted.  At  the  begin- 
ning of  the  year  the  school  seemed  especially  well  prepared  for 
thorough  work,  both  spiritually  and  educationally,  as  the  entire  gradu- 
ating class  of  the  preceding  year,  four  girls  in  thorough  sympathy 
with  the  spiritual  aims  of  the  school,  were  engaged  as  teachers.  Two 
of  the  four  were  incapacitated  early  in  the  year,  however,  one  by 
sickness  and  the  other  by  trouble  at  home,  so  a  rearrangement  of 
the  work  was  made  necessary.  The  teacher  who  was  deterred  from 
work  by  home  trouble  had  an  opportunity  to  show  her  loyalty  to  the 
better  ideals  she  had  learned  in  the  school,  and  this  opportunity  she 
used  to  make  a  good  witness,  a  loyal  Christian.  She  was  herself  a 
Greek,  the  daughter  of  a  bigoted  Greek.  One  of  her  own  class,  and 
her  dearest  friend,  was  from  the  same  village.  During  the  summer 
succeeding  their  graduation,  the  father  asked  for  her  friend  in  mar- 
riage. The  friend  refused.  The  father  then  laid  her  refusal  at  the 
door  of  his  daughter,  and  finally  threatened  her  with  disinheritance 
if  the  friend  did  not  yield  At  the  same  time  he  betrothed  his  daughter 
to  a  young  doctor,  but  was  further  enraged  by  his  daughter's  refusing 
to  consent.  So  in  a  rage  he  cut  her  off  and  told  her  to  go  where  she 
pleased.  She  came  back  to  school  and  took  up  her  duties  as  though 
nothing  had  happened.  But  early  in  the  year  the  father  became 
dangerously  ill,  and  friends  prevailed  upon  the  daughter  to  go  home. 
Although  the  school  lost  her  temporarily,  before  going  she  made  a 
]3ublic  profession  of  her  faith  in  Christ  and  received  the  communion ; 
and  we  are  also  glad  to  record  that  a  reconciliation  was  effected 
between  her  and  her  now  softened  father,  without  any  sacrifice  of 
principle  on  her  part. 

The  Christian  Endeavor  Society,  which  is  well  understood  among  the 
girls  to  be  the  door  to  public  profession  of  faith,  did  its  usual  work, 
among  other  things  sending  letters  to  all  former  members  and  praying 
definitely  for  them.  This  society  raised  during  the  year  1,500  piasters, 
part  of  which  was  sent  to  help  the  new  building  in  Hums,  and  part  to 
put  a  roof  on  a  new  room  in  Amar,  where  a  girls'  school  has  been  started 
with  one  of  the  former  members  as  teacher.  On  the  whole  the  work  of 
the  year  was  considered  very  satisfactory.  In  addition  to  the  board- 
ers 98  girls  from  the  city  were  in  attendance,  naaking  a  school  of  over 
160. 

Women's  Work. — Misses  LaGrange  and  Hunting  carried  on  the  usual 
forms  of  evangelistic  work,  the  latter  working  in  connection  with  the 
Evangelistic  Committee  of  the  Christian  Endeavor  Society.  About 
seventy  calls  were  made  by  Miss  Hunting  and  members  of  the  society, 
and  the  way  was  opened  to  read  and  explain  the  Gospel  to  Moslems, 
Greeks  and  Maronites.  They  also  made  trips  during  the  Christmas 
and  Easter  vacations  to  Akar  and  Batrvm. 


SYRIA— TRIPOLI.  479 

Mrs.  Nelson  conducted  a  woman's  niceling  in  Tripoli  up  to  the  time 
of  her  departure,  and  since  then  the  work  has  been  carried  on  by 
Syrian  ladies,  assisted  by  the  teachers  of  the  girls'  school.  In  the 
Mina  a  woman's  meeting  has  been  kept  up  all  year  under  the  direction 
of  Mrs.  Harris. 

Tripoli  Boys'  School. — The  boys'  boarding  school  began  its  fourth 
year  with  every  available  place  occupied,  despite  the  fact  that  a 
nearby  house  was  rented  to  accommodate  teachers  who  were  crowded 
out  of  the  main  building.  Eightj^-three  boarders  were  accepted,  which 
with  65  day-pupils  made  a  school  of  148.  In  March  a  class  of  ten 
candidates  for  the  school  diploma  appeared  before  the  public  in  Tall- 
cott  Hall  and  seven  were  given  the  diploma.  Of  these  seven,  three 
have  entered  the  college,  two  are  teaching  in  the  school,  one  is  teaching 
in  the  new  school  in  Enfeh,  opened  under  Syiian  auspices,  and  one  is 
contemplating  America.  The  spiritual  life  of  the  school  showed  no 
such  awakening  as  we  always  long  for,  but  many  made  marked 
advance  in  the  understanding  of  the  Christian  life.  The  Y.  M.  C.  A. 
held  its  meetings  throughout  the  year,  and  the  school  conducted  a 
special  Sunday  evening  service  for  the  boys,  in  addition  to  the  regular 
church  and  Sunday-school  services.  Financially,  the  school  weathered 
the  hard  conditions  imposed  by  a  dear  market,  and  not  only  finished 
the  year  without  deficit,  but  was  able  to  put  by  a  small  balance  for 
the  building  fund. 

Hums  Boarding  School. — While  a  strictly  independent  venture,  the 
Hums  school  is  so  vitally  related  to  our  work,  and  so  directly  the  out- 
growth of  it,  that  its  work  desei'ves  a  place  in  this  report.  The  school 
began  its  second  year  inost  atispiciously  with  an  enrollment  of  74 
boarders,  36  half-boarders,  and  59  day  pupils,  a  total  of  169  in  the 
high  school  department.  To  provide  for  this  large  increase  over  the 
preceding  year  a  nearby  house  was  rented,  where  some  of  the  pupils 
slept  under  the  care  of  a  teacher. 

The  erection  of  a  new  building  on  the  land  purchased  during  the 
preceding  year  progressed  rapidly  during  the  past  summer.  The 
customary  difficulty  was  encountered  in  getting  a  permit  to  build, 
and  even  now  the  building  is  being  erected  as  a  residence,  but  the 
political  changes  in  the  empire  have  changed  the  situation.  We  shall 
not  soon  forget  the  new  light  in  the  flashing  eye  of  the  Principal, 
Mr.  Hanna  Khubbaz,  and  the  exultant  joy  of  his  voice,  when  he 
returned  one  night  to  his  home,  several  days  after  the  proclamation 
of  the  Constitution.  He  said,  "I  have  been  sitting  all  day  in  the  gate 
of  our  property,  keeping  ovit  the  Government.  One  of  the  officers 
came  to  stop  our  building  to-day,  and  instead  of  my  going  as  usual 
to  the  Government  House  to  complain,  I  went  straight  to  the  Com- 
mittee on  Union  and  Progress.  And  the  Chairman  called  the  offending 
officer  and  said,  'Do  you  think  we  are  still  in  the  dark  days  which 
were?  No,  this  is  a  new  day  and  the  time  for  such  work  is  past; 
and  if  you're  not  careful,  and  if  you  refuse  to  let  this  man  alone  with 
his  school,  you'll  lose  your  place.'  "  And  the  work  went  on  unmo- 
lested. 

Amar  Girls'  School. — The  Amar  Church  decided  to  open  a  girls' 
school.  A  place  was  needed  and  they  were  ready  to  build  a  room,  if 
the  Station  agreed  to  put  on  the  roof  and  furnish  doors  and  windows. 
The  Girls'  Society  in  the  Tripoli  Girls'  School  started  a  fund  which 
was  added  to  by  members  of  the  Station,  and  the  new  girls'  school  is 
soon  to  be  opened. 

The  Hospital  and  Dispensary. — Twenty-five  years  ago  Dr.  Ira 
Harris  arrived  from  America  to  take  up  the  medical  work  of  Tripoli 
Station.  The  tangible  results  of  his  work  are  evidenced  in  the  equip- 
ment at  Tripoli,  the  hospital  and  dispensary,  built  in  part  by  the 
income  from  his  work.      But  the  largest  results  cannot  be  exhibited,

either  in  stone  or  in  figures— they  are  written  on  the  hearts  of  those 
whom  he  has  served.  His  constant  attendance  in  the  homes,  his 
watchfulness  in  sickness,  his  loving  interest  and  patient  skill,  have 
endeared  him  in  the  hearts  of  the  whole  Station.  The  increased  price 
of  foodstuffs  this  year  compelled  the  people  to  an  insufficient  and 
cheap  diet,  resulting  in  the  clinics  being  crowded  with  sick,  especially 
children,  their  diseases  arising  chiefly  from  impoverished  blood. 
The  year  has  been  one  of  steady  work  for  a  class  which,  were  it  not  for 
the  free  clinic,  would  suffer  on  without  treatment. 

The  preaching  services  have  been  held  as  usual  in  the  hospital 
chapel  on  Sundays  and  Thursdays,  in  addition  to  daily  services 
before  clinics,  which  all  are  expected  to  attend.  The  Bible  woman 
gives  all  her  mornings  to  reading  and  teaching,  reaching  not  only 
the  sick  but  the  friends  who  come  from  the  villages  to  care  for  their 
sick  ones.  It  has  been  very  encouraging  to  note  the  increased  inter- 
est among  the  Moslems,  who  have  shown  especial  interest  in  the  Gos- 
pel of  John,  and  some  have  expressed  with  much  emotion  their  great 
desire  to  follow  its  teachings,  if  there  were  only  freedom  to  do  so. 

MEDICAL  STATISTICS,  1907-08.— Surgical  operations,  385; 
in-patients,  Tripoli  Hospital,  9  months,  in;  whole  number  of  new 
cases  (77  per  cent.  Moslem),  5,498;  number  of  treatments,  14,322. 

Jebail  Settlement. — We  are  glad  to  make  mention  here  of  the  inde- 
pendent work  carried  on  in  Jebail,  under  the  leadership  of  Miss  Holmes. 
There  were  in  the  boarding  department  of  her  school  twenty-five 
pupils,  nine  of  whom  were  small  boys.  In  addition  there  was  a  day- 
school  of  thirty-five  pupils  at  the  beginning,  btit  this  ntimber  dimin- 
ished because  of  clerical  strictures  upon  the  parents.  A  native  preacher 
worked  constantly  among  both  Moslems  and  Christians.  Two  made 
a  profession  of  faith,  and  no  communion  service  has  yet  been  held  at 
Jebail  without  at  least  one  profession  of  faith. 

The  work  has  been  remarkably  free  from  persecution  this  past  year. 
Isolated  cases  have  come  to  our  notice,  but  they  have  been  mostly 
of  a  personal  character.  Liberty  has  not  yet  penetrated  into  the  out- 
of-the-way  villages  of  the  Husn,  and  especially  in  Bir  Sheen  the  people 
do  not  cease  their  hostility,  but  continue  to  harass  the  preacher  with 
minor  persecution  throughout  the  year.  A  man  who  was  converted 
this  past  year  immediately  became  the  mark  for  the  priests'  anger, 
and  the  villagers  were  led  to  heap  all  sorts  of  insialts  upon  him.  There 
is  a  league  against  him,  whereby  all  his  creditors  agree  to  press  him 
to  immediate  payment,  while  his  debtors  have  pledged  themselves 
to  refuse  to  pay.  Happily  the  days  of  the  priestly  influence  in  the 
Government  there  are,  we  hope,  well-nigh  over,  and  we  hope  that  our 
new  brother  will  secure  his  rights.  In  the  meantime  he  is  seemingly 
indifferent  to  money  loss,  and  says  brightly  that  if  he  lose  all  things 
he  will  not  deny  his  Lord. 

New  Work. — Three  new  points  were  occupied  last  year,  or  rather 
two  of  them  were  old  points  reoccupied.  They  are  at  Batrun,  a  little 
city  of  growing  importance  fifteen  miles  south  of  Tripoli. 

EDUCATIONAL. — Bir  Sheen  School. — At  Bir  Sheen  was  the  first 
real  school  the  village  had  seen.  We  started  out  with  a  large  enroll- 
ment, but  the  priests  beeame  frightened  and  opened  a  very  respectable 
school  of  their  own,  to  which  they  compelled  all  the  children  to  repair 
immediately.  This  most  of  the  children  did,  leaving  our  school 
with  only  a  few  of  the  bolder  spirits.  But  we  feel  that  once  more  our 
work  has  made  its  contribution  to  the  welfare  of  these  poor  people, 
in  that  their  professed  leaders  and  teachers  have  been  forced  to  give 
them  something  better  than  husks  and  meaningless  mumblings. 

Sheikhan. — All  these  places  are  centres  of  religious  teaching,   as 


SYRIA— TRIPOLI.  481 

well  as  of  ordinary  school  education,  and  they  form  the  basis  for 
evangelistic  work  whenever  we  are  free  to  take  it  up.  A  house  full 
of  listeners  can  be  had  by  a  missionary  at  any  time,  and  we  are  hoping 
for  sufficient  free  time  to  take  up  this  schoolhouse  work  in  a  sys- 
tematic way. 

The  report  on  self-support  is  full  of  encouragement  and  is 
as  follows: 

In  the  matter  of  self-support  excellent  progress  was  made,  the  entire 
native  expenditures  for  all  causes — congregational  expenses,  education, 
repairs,  home  and  foreign  missions — amounting  to  587,000  piasters 
as  against  464,000  piasters  in  1907.  We  feel,  however,  that  the  time 
has  almost  come  to  cease  to  reckon  these  large  sums  paid  for  education 
and  boarding  schools  and  college  in  the  nature  of  strict  self-support. 
It  certainly  shows  tremendous  changes  from  the  conditions  of  a  very 
few  years  back,  when  people  could  hardly  be  forced  to  send  their 
children  to  school;  books,  tuition,  and  sometimes  board  being  provided 
free  of  charge.  Yet  it  shows  little  more  than  the  wonderful  zeal  for 
education  which  has  seized  upon  the  country.  We  find  larger  satis- 
faction in  the  progress  made  year  by  year  in  the  churches  toward  a 
real  support  of  their  own  worship  and  their  village  schools,  and  a 
real  attempt  to  make  contributions  from  their  poverty  to  home  and 
foreign  missions.  We  are  most  happj^  to  report  this  year  that  the 
contributions  for  causes  other  than  education  amount  to  129,497 
piasters,  22,000  of  which  was  given  by  the  churches  for  missionary 
work.  We  believe  that  this  spells  a  real  life  in  the  churches,  the 
spirit  of  unselfish  service,  which  is  life. 

The  Work  of  the  Spirit  in  Hakoor. — Fifteen  miles  north  of  Tripoli 
there  is  a  large  village  in  the  hills  called  Hakoor.  We  have  never  had 
any  work  there,  but  there  is  a  flourishing  church  in  the  village  of  Min- 
yara,  across  the  river.  From  time  to  time  different  workers  have 
crossed  the  river  and  sown  some  seed,  but  with  no  apparent  result. 
But  all  this  time  God  was  preparing  his  own  messenger  to  Hakoor, 
and  he  a  blind  man.  This  man  has  always  been  thoughtful  and  in- 
clined to  test  truth,  and  a  number  of  years  ago  was  convinced  by  his 
own  reasonings  that  the  people  of  the  Gospel  were  right.  Pressure 
was  immediately  brought  to  bear  upon  him  by  priests  and  relatives, 
and  he  was  temporarily  persuaded  that  he  was  wrong.  He  then  formed 
the  opinion  that  the  Catholic  faith  represented  one  extreme,  the  Pro- 
testant another,  the  Greek  Orthodox  the  golden  mean,  the  only  true 
faith.  So  he  remained  until  last  year,  an  apologist  for  his  Church,  an 
obstacle  to  the  progress  of  the  Gospel  in  his  village.  Suddenly  we 
heard  that  Abu  Naameh,  the  blind  man  of  Hakoor,  had  turned  Evan- 
•  gelical.  Immediatel}^  all  the  powers  of  the  priests  were  brought  to 
bear  upon  him — argument,  persuasion,  insult,  threats — all  unavailing. 
The  village  priest  wisel}^  refused  to  undertake  the  argument  with  him, 
saying  that  Abu  Naameh  was  too  clever.  So  the  Bishop  was  called 
upon  to  make  an  effort.  He  summoned  the  culprit,  and  asked  him 
in  a  patronizing  way  what  his  trouble  was.  Perhaps  he  was  angry 
at  someone,  perhaps  a  priest  had  wronged  him,  perhaps  the  church 
had  failed  to  take  pit}''  on  him  in  his  blindness.  All  this  would  be 
remedied.  The  Bishop  himself  would  see  to  it.  To  all  this  Abu 
Naameh  replied  that  his  troubles  were  not  of  this  kind — he  had  found 
a  new  and  precious  faith  in  Christ  as  Saviour  and  Redeemer.  The 
Bishop  was  confident  that  he  could  cure  him  of  all  his  vagaries,  and 
with  great  confidence  brought  him  a  tract,  an  apologetic  of  the  Greek 
Church.  The  blind  man  asked  the  Bishop  the  name  of  the  tract,  and 
then  proceeded  to  tell  the  Bishop  what  was  in  each  chapter,  explaining 
16 


482  SYRIA— SIDON. 

that  he  had  read  all  that,  and  was  not  convinced.  So  he  left  the  Bishop, 
still  holding  fast  his  faith.  His  companion  reviled  him,  saying  that 
he  used  to  honor  him,  but  now  he  had  fallen  low  in  his  eyes.  This 
reviler  was  the  first  to  become  a  convert  under  Abu  Naa:neh's  teaching. 
These  two  became  ambassadors  at  once,  and  soon  had  a  group  of  fol- 
lowers, seven  of  whom  have  already  entered  the  church.  The  group 
has  grown  until  there  are  twenty-five  or  thirty  meeting,  with  new 
faces  visible  each  time.  The  villagers  have  tried  persecution,  threaten- 
ing to  cut  off  these  families  without  a  burial  place,  and  taunting  them 
with  a  vision  of  their  dead  lying  in  the  road,  refused  a  grave,  the  food 
of  the  dogs  of  the  street.  Stones  and  obstacles  were  thrown  in  the 
blind  preacher's  path,  the  persecutors  in  their  zeal  forgetting  the  words 
in  the  chapter  on  curses,  Deuteronomy  27  :  19:  "Cursed  be  he  that 
maketh  the  blind  to  wander  out  of  the  way,  and  all  the  people  say, 
Amen. " 

Our  attitude  to  this  work  has  been  simply  to  rejoice,  but  not  to 
spoil  the  work  of  the  Spirit  with  proffered  assistance.  Zealous  breth- 
ren in  Minyara  urged  us  to  rent  a  room  for  these  new  believers  to 
worship  in.  We  refused,  and  God  provided  means  for  them.  They 
asked  us  for  a  cemetery;  we  refused,  and  God  put  it  into  the  heart  of  a 
zealous  Syrian  to  provide  it.  We  have  been  urged  to  pay  the  blind 
brother  a  salary;  we  have  heard  the  Spirit  saying,  "Hands  off;  this 
work  is  mine."  This,  friends,  is  our  hope  for  the  future — that  the 
Spirit  is  the  beginner,  the  energizer,  the  provider.  And  we  are  ex- 
pecting to  see  more  and  more  these  lights  flaming  out  in  the  midst 
of  the  darkness,  kindled  not  by  you  nor  by  us,  but  by  the  Spirit  of  the 
Living  God.  "Not  by  might,  nor  by  povv^er,  but  by  My  Spirit,  saith 
the   Lord." 

SIDON  STATION. 

In  recording  the  work  of  the  Sidon  Station  tnention  should 
be  made  of  the  resignation  of  Mrs.  Wilham  K.  Eddy;  she  left 
Sidon  for  America  on  the  2d  of  April,  thus  closing  a  continuous 
residence  in  that  city  (barring  furloughs)  of  twenty-seven 
years.  It  is  the  earnest  prayer  of  all  the  members  of  the 
Station  that  she  and  some  of  her  children  may  return  and 
come  into  the  inheritance  of  good  works  and  noble  service 
made  ready  to  their  hand  by  their  zealous  father,  whose  death 
two  years  ago  is  still  poignantly  fresh  in  memory. 

Miss  Charlotte  H.  Brown,  now  on  furJoueh,  will  return  in 
Spring. 

Dr.  Samuel  Jessup,  loaned  to  the  Institute  for  four  years, 
resumed  Station  work  in  touring  all  over  the  field  with  a 
vigor  that  proved  him  to  be  seventy-four  years  young. 

During  nearly  four  months  of  Summer,  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Ford 
were  absent  in  Europe  on  the  advice  of  the  physician 

Sidon  was  favored  with  a  visit  from  Rev.  Marcellus  Bowen, 
D.D.,  Levant  Agent  of  the  American  Bible  Society,  and  Mrs. 
Bowen,  and  Consul-General  and  Mrs.  Ravndal  paid  a  flying 
visit  to  Sidon  in  the  first  automobile  ever  to  enter  this  ancient 
Phoenician  city. 

In  its  relation  to  the  proclamation  of  the  new  Constitution 


SYRIA— SIDON.  483 

in  Turkey  with  its  promise  of  liberty  the  year  1907-08  was 
as  the  darkest  hour  of  the  night,  just  before  the  dawn. 

On  March  19  our  school  at  Bussah  was  closed  and  sealed  by 
Government  officials.  The  case  was  taken  up  by  the  Consul- 
General,  and  it  was  made  a  test  case  to  urge  on  the  lagging 
steps  of  Turkish  inquiry  into  the  status  of  American  educa- 
tional institutions.  Finally  strict  orders  were  received  for 
its  formal  reopening,  which  orders,  preserved  at  Bussah,  are 
a  guarantee  against  future  official  meddling.  The  boys' 
school  at  Rasheya-el-Wady  was  also  closed,  but  subsequently 
reopened. 

During  the  month  of  May  came  stringent  orders  to  the 
Beirut  Director  of  Education,  a  Moslem,  to  visit  in  person 
all  the  alleged  schools  under  American  control  and  report 
their  number  to  Constantinople,  this  being  one  step  in  the 
tedious  process  of  comparing  and  modifying  the  Embassy 
list  of  schools.  This  official  has  always  been  a  friend  to 
American  interests.  His  visit  to  Judeideh  was  a  delight  to 
the  missionary  sent  to  note  his  course  of  action.  He  freely 
consulted  him  and  suggested  lines  of  action  that  promised 
good  results. 

On  June  21,  in  Jezzin,  the  Protestant  teacher  was  arrested 
and  imprisoned  by  the  local  Governor  on  a  charge  that  dis- 
played bitter  Maronite  bigotry.  Although  our  teacher  was 
not  well,  he  was  kept  for  a  long  time  in  the  common  prison. 
His  case  was  taken  up  vigorously  by  Dr.  Jessup  and  the 
Consul-General.  Every  step  in  the  prosecution  had  been 
legally  false,  and  the  Lebanon  Governor-General,  convinced 
of  this  by  clear  proof,  was  compelled  to  order  that  justice  be 
done. 

EVANGELISTIC— The  report  of  evangelistic  work  for 
the  year  has  many  lights  and  shadows.  The  lights  are  in- 
creased contributions,  larger  Sunday-school  attendance, 
special  activity  of  some  of  the  workers,  opportunities  for 
evangelistic  services,  harmonious  gathering  of  Presbyters  at 
the  annual  meeting.  The  dark  lines  of  the  picture  are  dis- 
sensions among  church  members,  continued  weakening  of 
church  organizations  by  emigration  and  the  almost  universal 
tendency  of  the  emigrants  to  forget  their  home  church,  and — 
darkest  shadow  of  all — a  smaller  number  of  additions  to  church 
membership  than  for  many  years,  only  twenty-six.  This 
lamentable  showing  emphasizes  the  value  of  the  suggestion  of 
the  Rev.  W.  K.  Eddy,  made  fifteen  years  ago,  that  a  committee 
should  visit  the  churches  and  work  directly  and  individually 
with  preachers,  teachers,  elders  and  people. 

During  the  past  year  such  meetings  were  attempted  in  the 
Sidon  field,  though  by  one  missionary  at  a  time.     The  "Week 


484  SYRIA— SIDON. 

of  Prayer  was  thus  spent  in  Deir  Mimas  and  the  commodious 
church  building  was  taxed  to  its  utmost.  Night  after  night 
the  people  listened  attentively  to  plain  talk  about  true  and 
false  Christianity,  daily  duties  and  remissness  in  the  same, 
and  the  one  only  Saviour.  Another  series  of  meetings  in 
Alma  and  Tyre  proved  that  people  are  glad  to  attend  evan- 
gelistic services.  At  Bussah  two  days  of  preaching  and  house- 
to-house  visiting  resulted  in  touching  the  hearts  of  some 
estranged  by  local  quarrels  and  a  general  reconciliation  ensued 
— the  regular  Oriental  scene  of  falling  upon  one  another's 
necks   and   kissing   away   former   grievances. 

New  Year's  Day  in  Sidon  brought  to  the  missionaries  assem- 
bled at  Dr.  Ford's  house  i6o  callers — Christians  of  all  creeds, 
Moslems,  Metawily  and  Jews. 

The  monthly  social  meetings  of  church  members,  held  in 
various  houses,  have  strengthened  "the  tie  that  binds." 
Weekly  afternoon  meetings  for  women  were  held  at  the  house 
of  the  Syrian  pastor.  The  men  have  a  flourishing  society 
that  aids  the  preaching  in  this  vicinity  and  raises  considerable 
sums  for  evangelistic  effort.  The  salary  of  the  man  in  charge 
of  the  reading  room  is  thus  paid. 

Judeideh  Church  and  the  entire  region  about  Mount  Her- 
mon  suffered  a  severe  loss  in  the  death  of  the  leading  church 
elder,  Yakub  Effendi  Jebara,  on  the  night  of  February  24. 
For  many  years  he  had  been  the  staunch  upholder  and  defender 
of  the  Protestant  faith,  and  his  sterling  integrity  and  keen 
ability  won  him  a  place  not  second  to  any  in  all  that  region. 
His  interest  in  the  church  and  the  sect  was  unfailing.  Almost 
his  last  effort  was  to  heal  a  breach  in  a  neighboring  church. 
His  true  Christian  character  was  revealed  in  his  last  spoken 
words:  "0  Jesus,  into  thy  hand  I  commend  my  spirit." 

"Good  Fruit." — Among  Syrian  church  members  it  is  a  pleasure  to 
mention  one,  a  man  in  Deir  Mimas,  just  returned  from  Brazil,  who  is 
devoting  much  time  and  money  to  school  and  church  work  in  his  town. 
He  is  the  cause  of  the  self-supporting  school  there,  and  he  of  his  own 
accord  has  been  conducting  the  church  services.  In  another  place 
a  newly  graduated  teacher  united  with  the  church,  and  then  set  about 
to  interest  his  brother  in  Bible  reading.  It  involved  almost  teaching 
him  to  read;  but  his  labor  bore  good  fruit,  a  constant  reader  has  been 
added  to  the  ranks.  In  Judeideh  a  Sidon  Seminary  graduate  and 
a  church  member  was  married  to  a  Greek  Catholic.  Soon  after  the 
wedding  she  brought  her  husband  to  the  Protestant  Church,  and 
they  have  been  frequent  attendants  ever  since. 

The  Presbytery  meeting,  held  in  August  at  Alma,  showed  that 
advance  has  been  made  along  lines  best  calculated  to  bring  perma- 
nence and  solidity  into  the  work  of  the  Syrian  laborers.  It  was  not 
easy  for  these  underpaid  preachers  to  hear  again  of  the  Station's 
inability  to  raise  salaries.  Yet  they  accepted  the  verdict  and  deter- 
mined to  make  greater  efforts  toward  self-support. 

Reports  to  Presbytery  showed  that  the  Hasbe^^a  Church 


SYRIA— SIDON.  4S5 

heads  the  Ust  in  the  amount  of  contributions  to  church  work 
and  expenses,  Sidon  next,  and  Ibl  third.  In  all  Si, 600  were 
thus  expended. 

EDUCATIONAL.— The  number  of  day-schools  in  opera- 
tion in  Sidon  field  was  seven  more  than  the  previous  year, 
with  220  more  pupils,  and  an  advance  in  payments  of  5,300 
piasters.  The  people  of  Dibbeyeh  paid  half  the  teacher's 
salary,  and  in  Berta  fifty  Turkish  dollars.  In  Muallekeh, 
half-way  to  Beirut,  the  people,  ardent  Maronites,  paid  3,000 
piasters  for  the  privilege  of  placing  their  children  in  a  Pro- 
testant school.  The  boys'  schools  at  Judeideh,  Ibl,  Hasbeya 
and  Kheyam,  and  the  girls'  school  at  Deir  Mimas  were  sup- 
ported by  Syrian  funds  entirely. 

The  amount  expended  by  Syrians  within  Sidon  field  in 
education  in  college,  boarding  and  day-schools  was  $7,645, 
considerably  larger  than  last  year.  The  people  of  Judeideh 
alone  paid  $1,500,  easily  leading  all  other  places  in  the  field, 
with  Sidon  second  and  Tyre  third.  Almost  every  out-station 
in  the  field,  beside  many  places  never  opened  to  Mission  work, 
sent  some  representative,  boy  or  girl,  to  the  higher  institutions 
of  learning  in  Sidon  or  Beirut.  Many  petitions  to  open 
schools  in  new  places  have  been  received,  but  financial  strin- 
gency has  precluded  any  response.  Our  school  children  know 
.  Scripture  verses  and  Bible  incidents  as  few  Sunday-school 
scholars  in  America  know  them.  Bible  stories  they  learn  to 
give  in  their  own  simple  language,  and  thus  become  little 
preachers  in  their  homes  and  wheresoever  they  have  occasion 
to  review  their  Bible  knowledge.  At  Mughdusheh,  near 
Sidon,  the  seat  of  a  very  sacred  shrine  to  the  Virgin,  where 
fifteen  years  ago  a  missionary  and  a  helper  were  stoned  out 
of  the  place,  last  summer's  examination  of  the  large  school 
revealed  an  astonishing  acquaintance  with  these  Bible  inci- 
dents. The  basal  work  in  the  schedule  of  studies  for  village 
schools  is  along  Biblical  lines. 

Sidon  Seminary. — The  most  important  item  connected 
with  education  in  Sidon  City  for  the  past  year  is  the  com- 
pletion of  the  seminary  compound.  During  its  thirty-three 
years  on  the  present  site  it  has  grown  on  west  and  north,  as 
well  as  skyward,  until  there  remained  only  the  house  and 
property  to  the  east,  whose  owners  had  the  right  of  way  past 
the  seminary  door,  their  windows  overlooking  the  seminary 
windows.  Last  fall  this  property  was  thrown  upon  the  market, 
and  there  was  fear  that  it  might  come  into  the  possession  of 
a  wealthy  but  immoral  Moslem  family.  A  grave  crisis  con- 
fronted the  Station.  Letters  winged  by  prayer  were  sent  to 
the  homeland,  and  a  magnificent  response  was  made.  A 
calamity  was  averted  and  changed  into  an  untold  blessing. 


486  SYRIA— SIDON. 

The  seminary  compound  was  completed  on  all  sides;  the 
school  can  now  expand;  the  upper  part  of  the  new  building 
has  been  adapted  for  a  missionary  residence.  Sidon  Seminary 
is  to  be  congratulated  upon  its  entrance  on  a  new  era  of 
prosperity,  made  possible  by  its  many  generous  friends,  and 
the  manifest  blessing  of  God. 

From  Miss  Law's  report  of  Sidon  Seminary  the  following 
has  been  culled: 

All  through  the  year  a  steady  desire  and  earnest  purpose  was  shown 
by  many  of  the  girls  to  serve  the  Master  in  their  daily  hves.  One 
of  the  girls  at  first  did  not  control  her  tongue  and  so  received  low 
deportment  marks.  Realizing  her  trouble  she  made  an  effort,  and  at 
the  end  of  the  year  was  No.  i  in  the  school.  At  a  class  prayer  meeting 
she  said  that  one  night  a  little  lizard  had  come  near  her  bed,  but  she 
had  covered  herself  up  and  let  it  alone.  Afterward  she  thought  that 
perhaps  she  ought  to  have  killed  it,  as  it  might  grow  large,  return  and 
hurt  her.     This  lesson  she  wisely  applied  to  her  small  sins. 

The  missionary  society  raised  over  $45  during  the  year,  and  sup- 
ported in  the  school  a  girl  from  the  Hauran.  This  thirteen-year-old 
girl  loved  her  Bible  class  best  of  all  her  studies.  Her  English  writing 
at  the  end  of  five  months  was  really  remarkable  for  one  who  had 
started  at  her  letters. 

The  number  of  pupils  in  attendance  was:  Boarders,  56,  day-pupils, 
75;  total,  131.  Of  these  15  were  Protestant  church  members,  38  non- 
church  members,  78  belonging  to  Oriental  Christian  sects,  i  Druze 
and  I  Moslem.     $1,212  were  raised  in  fees. 

The  chief  burden  has  been  the  teaching  corps.  Only  first-class 
Christian  men  should  be  employed.  This  seems  to  be  forbidden  by 
the  financial  exigencies  of  our  boarding  schools.  The  Institute  suffered 
in  this  respect,  and  at  the  close  of  the  year  vigorous  measures  were 
taken  to  remedy  this  serious  defect.  It  is  worth  recording  that  the 
first  teacher,  after  having  about  decided  to  leave,  possibly  for  America, 
yielded  to  the  higher  considerations  that  were  pressed  upon  him  and 
decided  to  stay,  upon  the  unique  condition  that  his  salary  should  not  be 
increased. 

The  Syrian  overseer  of  the  large  farm  has  accepted  a  com- 
mission basis  instead  of  a  fixed  salary,  which  plan  gives  better 
promise  of  combining  productiveness  with  economy. 

The  work  on  Ramapo  Hall,  whose  foundations  were  completed  a 
year  ago.  was  this  year  confined  to  three  months.  The  masonry  is 
more  than  half  done,  and  a  good  portion  of  the  woodwork.  A  four- 
story  building  is  planned,  117  feet  long  and  69  feet  wide. 

The  number  of  pupils  last  year  is  the  largest  in  the  history  of  the 
school — 127  boarders  at  Sidon  and  30  at  Dar-es-Salaam,  with  19 
orphans,  making  176  full  boarders,  beside  half  boarders,  lodgers  and 
day-pupils,  making  a  general  total  of  308. 

The  class  graduating  from  the  course  preparatory  to  college  was  the 
largest  and  best  in  the  history  of  the  school.  Of  its  nineteen  members, 
seven  became  teachers  and  five  returned  to  take  the  Normal  course. 
Of  these  five,  one  is  the  product  of  work  in  the  once  bigoted  village  of 
Mughdusheh.  Another  is  the  son  of  an  intelligent,  upright  and  religi- 
ously enlightened  Persian  Babite.  The  father  avows  himself  a  Chris- 
tian at  heart,  and  the  son  is  an  open  and  earnest  Christian  church 
member.     A  third  comes  from  a  familj^  notable  in  the  annals  of  the 


SYRIA— STATISTICS.  487 

Syria  Mission,  being  the  grandson  of  the  late  Daaibis  Abbud,  of 
Kheyam,  who  with  his  two  brothers  was  long  a  prominent  Mission 
helper.  Of  his  six  tall  sons,  two  are  ordained  pastors,  two  unordained 
preachers,  and  two  la}^  workers  in  Palestine. 

The  receipts  from  pupils  were  $5,418. 

Apart  from  the  regular  religious  exercises  of  the  school  and  church 
there  were  three  meetings  continued  through  the  year.  One  was  the 
inquiry  meeting  held  just  after  the  Sunday  morning  preaching  service. 
This  meeting,  conducted  by  the  Superintendent,  includes  the  church 
members,  so  as  to  enlist  and  train  them  in  evangelism.  Another 
was  the  Morning  Star  Society,  the  Christian  Endeavor  Society  of  the 
school,  conducted  and  attended  by  pupils  only.  The  third  was  a  new 
society,  notable  because  wholly  indigenous  and  spontaneous,  and  indica- 
ting a  healthy  life  in  the  school.  It  is  called  the  Society  of  Loving 
Sen,-ice.  Its  rules  are  three:  Truthfulness  in  word  and  deed;  respect 
for  the  school  regulations  and  inculcation  of  same  upon  fellow-students ; 
readiness  to  serve  the  weak  in  any  way.  The  half-hour  meeting  is 
closed  with  brief  sentence  prayers.     Membership  is  carefully  guarded. 

The  missionary  society  is  exceedingly  popular.  The  boys  could  not 
be  hired  to  stay  away  from  its  meetings.  Nearly  $80  were  raised  for 
benevolent  work.

The  work  among  the  Chinese,  Japanese  and  Koreans  on 
the  Pacific  Slope  has  made  commendable  progress  during  the 
year  in  spite  of  more  than  the  usual  opposition.  The  social 
and  political  agitator  has  done  his  best  to  stir  up  race  preju- 
dice. In  some  quarters  fierce  mutterings  have  been  heard 
against  the  Asiatic  emigrants.  On  the  other  hand  Christian 
men  and  women  have  spoken  in  no  uncertain  tones  regarding 
the  duty  of  the  Church  to  give  the  Gospel  to  these  aliens,  who 
in  the  Providence  of  God  have  come  to  our  shores.  The  most 
bitter  opposition  has  been  shown  against  the  Japanese.  It  is 
of  interest  to  note  that  during  the  year,  while  the  Board  of 
Foreign  Missions  expended  for  its  work  among  the  Japanese 
the  sum  of  $6,155,  the  Japanese  contributed  the  sum  of  no 
less  than  $6,425.  Sixty  persons  were  added  on  confession 
of  faith  and  twenty-nine  by  letter  to  the  nine  Japanese 
churches  under  the  charge  of  the  Board  in  California.  A 
new  Japanese  church  was  organized  and  two  Mission 
Homes  cleared  of  indebtedness. 

There  has  been  also  some  opposition  to  the  Koreans,  albeit 
they  are  still  a  feeble  folk.  Yet  these  few  Koreans  contrib- 
uted during  the  year  not  less  than  $438  for  church  purposes, 
and  provided  plans  for  carrying  the  Gospel  to  a  thousand  of 
their  fellow-Koreans  who  had  been  induced  to  emigrate  to 
Mexico. 

No  better  evidence  could  be  given  of  the  unreasonableness 
of  the  opposition  to  these  races  than  the  reports  herewith 
submitted.

SAN  FRANCISCO  CHINESE  MISSION. 

The  Rev.  J.  H.  Laughlin  reports  for  the  Chinese  Mission  as 
follows : 

The  new  building  after  a  year's  trial  has  proved  to  be  all  that  was 
hoped  for.  It  is  substantial,  roomy  and  perfectly  adapted  to  the 
needs  of  Christian  work.  The  new  pastor  who  came  from  China  last 
June  has  won  the  confidence  of  all  the  Chinese,  and  is  an  instructive 
and  inspiring  preacher.  He  has  been  a  Christian  for  nearly  twenty 
years,  an  evangelist  for  nine  years  and  an  ordained  minister  three 
years.  The  only  member  of  his  family  with  him  is  a  little  boy,  his 
wife  and  other  children  remaining  in  China  with  his  father.  At  the 
Sabbath  morning  service  there  is  an  average  attendance  of  120,  in  the 
evening  60,  in  the  Sunday-school  47,  and  this  in  view  of  the  fact  that 
many  of  the  families  still  reside  at  Oakland.  The  bulk  of  the  pupils 
come  from  non-Christian  families. 

The  educational  work  consists  of  two  day-schools  with  an  enroll- 
ment of  eighty,  a  kindergarten  taught  by  one  of  the  Chinese  women, 
and  an  evening  school  for  boys  and  men,  having  an  average  attend- 
ance of  forty-seven.  Nearly  500  different  names  are  on  our  roll, 
which  indicates  the  fluctuating  character  of  the  population  and  the 
hope  of  the  good  accomplished  from  the  sowing  of  seed  in  so  many 
garden  plots. 

The  King's  Daughters  have  supported  two  Bible  women  in  South 
China  and  assisted  in  the  church  work. 

The  members  of  the  church  have  lived  in  most  blessed  harmony 
and  have  been  liberal  in  their  contributions.  They  supported  their 
own  Y.  M.  C.  A.  work,  contributed  to  Mission  work  in  China  and  have 
shared  in  supporting  Christian  enterprises  in  this  land.  The  total 
amovtnt  subscribed  for  church  expenses  was  $240.  Sixty  dollars 
was  contributed  in  addition  for  various  entertainments.  For  the 
first  time  in  the  history  of  the  church  regular  offerings  were  taken  up 
every  Sunday;  the  offering  on  the  first  Sunda}'  in  the  month  went  to 
the  Board  of  Foreign  Missions,  the  third  Sunday  to  one  of  the  other 
Boards,  so  that  in  the  course  of  the  year  all  of  the  Boards  of  the  church 
have  received  some  gift  from  our  Chinese  Christians. 

There  has  been  a  paucity  of  conversions.  Only  six  were  added  on 
confession. 

Let  all  friends  of  the  Chinese  pray  that  the  new  year  may  bi"ing  a 
new  accession  of  evangelizing,  spiritual  power. 


OAKLAND  AND  ALAMEDA  MISSION. 

This  is  under  the  charge  of  the  Rev.  Ira  M.  Condit,  D.D. 
Dr.  Condit,  though  for  so  many  years  connected  with  the 
Mission,  is  still  able  to  do  valiant  service.     He  reports: 

While  the  rebuilding  of  San  Francisco's  Chinatown  has  taken  many 
business  men  back  to  that  city,  still  a  goodly  number  of  families 
remain  in  Oakland.  During  the  year  four  young  men  in  Oakland 
and  five  in  Alameda  have  made  a  public  confession  of  Christ.  In 
both  Oakland  and  Alameda,  besides  the  regular  services  of  the  week, 
a  Missionary  Society  meets  every  month,  in  which  the  members  con- 
tribute liberally  to  the  support  of  the  church  work  in  China.  The 
total  contributions  for  all  purposes  made  by  the  Oakland  Church  was 
$672;  number  of  communicants,  55.  In  the  Alameda  Church  the 
total  contributions  were  $192  ;  number  of  communicants,  19.

It  is  encouraging  to  note  the  growth  in  the  grace  of  giving 
of  our  fellow-Chinese  Christians. 

SAN  FRANCISCO  KOREAN  MISSION. 

The  Korean  evangelist,  W.  C.  Pang,  continues  to  look  after 
the  interests  of  his  fellow-countrymen  in  Southern  California. 
The  Koreans  in  the  northern  part  of  the  State  are  cared  for 
by  the  Mission  of  the  Southern  Methodist  Church.  Mr. 
Pang  reports  seven  groups  at  Los  Angeles,  Riverside,  Red- 
lands,  Upland,  Claremont,  Rialto  and  Hanford.  There  are 
151  Christians,  with  60  more  scattered  in  various  places,  a 
total  of  211.  Sixteen  were  baptized  during  the  year.  Four- 
teen Koreans  occupied  the  position  of  religious  leaders. 
Twenty-seven  catechumens  or  inquirers  are  reported.  The 
total  offerings  from  these  Korean  Christians  amounted  to 
$438.  Mr.  Pang  reports  an  interesting  story  of  1070  Koreans 
now  living  in  Mexico.  In  1905  they  were  induced  to  migrate 
from  Korea  to  Mexico  by  certain  agents  of  emigration,  who 
made  a  contract  with  them  for  five  years  at  the  rate  of  30 
cents  (American  money)  a  day,  a  certain  proportion  being 
paid  in  advance.  Compared  with  Korean  wages  that  sum 
looked  large,  but  the  laborers  soon  found  it  small  enough  in  a 
land  of  higher  cost  of  living.  They  suffered  hardship  and  in 
their  distress  called  upon  God,  though  very  ignorant  of  Him 
and  His  salvation.  Mr.  Pang,  hearing  of  them,  sent  a  fellow- 
Christian  with  suitable  literature  and  his  labors  were  soon 
rewarded  by  the  announcement  of  thirty  converts.  He  con- 
tinued his  work  among  them  and  now  reports  200  asking  for 
baptism,  but  no  pastor  within  reach  to  administer  the  sacred 
rite  to  them.     Mr.  Pang  plans  to  visit  them  the  coming  year. 

LOS  ANGELES  CHINESE  MISSION. 

This  work  is  under  the  charge  of  the  Rev.  J.  H.  Stewart. 
He  reports: 

The  new  location  in  the  heart  of  Chinatown,  referred  to  in  our  last 
Report,  has  been  secured.  By  this  change  we  are  brought  into  close 
relation  with  the  unsaved  in  the  Chinese  community,  and  we  are  able 
also  to  bring  all  the  work,  Church,  Sunday-school,  Mission  Bands, 
together  into  one  place.  This  has  made  possible  the  reopening  of  the 
night  school.  Church  services  are  held  and  there  is  a  Sunday-school 
and  a  Mission  Band.  The  enrollment  of  the  night  school  is  thirtj^-two. 
There  have  been  added  to  the  Church  three  on  confession  of  faith. 
The  Church  in  its  gifts  has  reached  the  Omaha  standard. 

CHINESE  MISSION,  PORTLAND. 

Mrs.  W.  S.  Holt  writes: 

There  have  been  six  adult  baptisms  and  three  infant  baptisms 
this  past  year.     The  night  school  has  had  an  enrollment  of  150. 


UNITED  STATES— JAPANESE.  491 

We  have  made  a  new  departure  this  winter  for  the  women  and 
children.  Formerly  we  had  the  one  service  on  Sunday  for  men, 
women  and  children,  but  now  we  are  trying  the  plan  of  holding  a 
separate  service  for  the  women  and  children,  holding  it  at  half  past  one. 
The  evening  service  was  so  late  it  made  it  a  real  hardship  for  the 
children  to  come.  This  new  plan  we  think  is  much  better,  and  we 
reach  a  larger  number. 

Some  of  our  Christian  young  men  have  gone  back  to  China,  and  we 
get  frequent  word  of  their  fidelity  to  their  profession 

CHINESE  IN  NEW  YORK. 

The  work  in  New  York  is  under  the  pastoral  care  of  the 
Rev.  Huie  Kin.  A  Committee  appointed  by  the  New  York 
Presb3^tery  through  the  help  of  many  kind  friends  were  able 
during  the  past  year  to  secure  a  building  admirably  adapted 
to  the  work  of  the  Mission.  The  new  home  is  located  at  223 
and  225  East  Thirty-first  Street. 

The  first  floor  of  the  new  building  contains  the  auditorium, 
reception  rooms  and  missionary  study.  On  the  second  floor 
are  the  library,  reading  room,  ladies'  reception  room  and 
Chinese  Y.  M.  C.  A.  meeting  room.  The  dormitory  and 
shower  baths  are  on  the  third  floor.  The  fourth  floor  is  the 
residence  of  the  missionary's  family.  In  the  basement  are 
the  bowling  alley,  kitchen  and  dining-room,  in  which  every 
Sunday  at  5  o'clock  the  scholars  and  teachers  dine  between 
afternoon  and  evening  services.  The  new  house  is  thoroughly 
adapted  for  institutional  work.  Six  services  are  held  every 
Sunday,  commencing  with  a  prayer  meeting  at  2  o'clock, 
followed  by  Sunday-school  at  2.30.  Next  comes  a  preaching 
service,  the  dinner  spoken  of  above,  the  prayer  and  devo- 
tional service  of  the  Chinese  Y.  M.  C.  A.,  and  evening  Bible 
class  and  song  service.  Last  year  the  average  attendance  of 
the  Sabbath-school  was  forty-nine.  Since  removing  to  the 
new  Home  in  June  the  attendance  has  increased  to  ninety-five, 
and  the  preaching  services  and  the  young  men's  meetings 
Sabbath  evening  and  Monday  evening  school  have  more 
than  doubled  their  attendance.  Six  young  men  are  ready 
to  receive  baptism  and  six  others,  already  baptized,  are  wait- 
ing for  the  formation  of  a  Chinese  Church,  at  which  time  they 
will  bring  their  letters.  The  new  building  has  offered  a 
Christian  and  congenial  home  to  many  Chinese  who  have 
visited  New  York.  The  contributions  for  various  purposes 
amounted  to  $1,625.99. 

JAPANESE  \^^ORK  ON  THE  PACIFIC  COAST. 

The  work  is  under  the  charge  of  Dr.  E.  A.  Sturge  and  Mrs. 
Sturge.  Dr.  Sturge  reports  the  number  of  Japanese  in  Cali- 
fornia as  48,000,  and  number  of  Christians  connected  with  the 


492  UNITED  STATES— JAPANESE. 

various  Missions  400;  eighty-nine  have  been  received  during 
the  year — sixty  on  confession  of  faith,  twenty-nine  by  letter. 
Amount    of   contributions,  $6,425.     Dr.  Sturge  reports  as 
follows  regarding  the  Japanese  work: 

THE  HAIGHT  STREET  MISSION,  SAN  FRANCISCO. 

During  the  twenty-three  years  of  its  history  it  has  received  into 
its  membership  490  persons,  nearly  all  young  men.  There  are  175 
members  of  this  church  in  good  and  regular  standing  still  living  in 
California.  There  is  an  influential  Y.  M.  C.  A.  of  140  members. 
Rooining,  boarding,  employment,  educational,  religious  and  other 
features  characterize  this  Y.  M.  C.  A. 

THE  NEW  SAN  FRANCISCO  MISSION. 

The  I  St  of  September  a  new  Mission  with  school  and  preaching  hall 
was  opened  in  the  heart  of  the  Japanese  quarter.  It  is  too  soon  to 
expect  fruit  from  this  new  plant,  but  there  are  some  inquirers  and  the 
outlook  is  hopeful.  The  rent  of  the  building,  together  with  the  cost 
of  furnishing  and  all  incidental  expenses,  have  been  cheerfully  met  by 
the  Japanese  Christians. 

LOS  ANGELES  JAPANESE  MISSION. 

Established  1902.  Church  organized  1905,  now  has  107  names  on 
its  roll;  twenty-four  added  during  the  past  year.  A  school  under 
the  supervision  of  Mrs.  Stever  has  been  one  of  the  attractions  of  the 
work.  The  pastor.  Rev.  J.  K.  Inazawa,  has  made  frequent  visits 
to  the  surrounding  country,  to  bring  to  his  countrymen  the  message  of 
salvation.  The  great  need  is  a  suitable  building  to  be  used  as  a 
church  and  home.  The  Japanese  have  subscribed  for  this  purpose 
$2,500,  of  which  a  little  more  than  $1,000  have  been  paid  in. 

THE  HANFORD  JAPANESE  MISSION. 

In  May  a  little  church  of  nineteen  members  was  organized.  It 
now  has  twenty-nine.  The  Rev.  S.  Miura,  the  pastor,  has  preached 
once  each  month  at  Fowler,  Visalia  and  Amiona.  As  a  result  six  were 
baptized  at  Fowler  and  three  at  Visalia.  Nineteen  in  all  made  a 
public  profession  of  their  faith  in  Christ.  The  Mission  Home  was 
enlarged  by  the  addition  of  seven  rooms.  The  contributions  from 
these  Christians  amounted  to  $1,000. 

VISALIA  JAPANESE  MISSION. 

In  the  Spring  a  Mission  school  was  opened  at  this  place.  The  Japan- 
ese pay  the  rent  and  all  other  expenses  except  the  salary  of  the 
teacher.  Until  recently  there  was  not  a  Christian  Japanese  in  the 
town,  but  as  the  first  fruits  of  this  work  three  young  men  have  con- 
fessed Christ. 

WATSONVILLE  JAPANESE  MISSION. 

This  Mission  has  thirty-six  Christian  members  and  several  inquirers 
who  will  soon  be  organized  into  a  church.  During  the  year  these 
Christians  have  paid  off  an  indebtedness  of  $300  on  their  Mission 
Home. 

SALINAS  JAPANESE  MISSION. 

This  is  one  of  the  country  Missions  established  ten  years  ago.  The 
Japanese   in  this  section  are   constantly  changing  and  the  gains  in

membership  have  abotit  equaled  the  losses.  The  neat  Mission  house 
purchased  by  the  Japanese  is  visited  every  day  by  many  Orientals, 
who  come  seeking  advice  on  all  manner  of  subjects. 

WINTERSBURG  JAPANESE  MISSION. 

This  is  the  smallest  and  weakest  of  our  California  Missions.  It  has 
no  home  and  has  received  no  support  from  the  Board.  About  $15 
per  month  has  been  contributed  by  the  people  of  Westminster  Chvirch 
to  assist  this  work;  the  rest  of  the  money  is  raised  by  the  fapanese 
themselves.  The  Rev.  H.  Watanabe  has  been  obliged  at  times  to 
work  in  the  fields  in  order  to  keep  soul  and  body  together.

OCCIDENTAL   BOARD. 

The  first  year  spent  in  the  new  Mission  Home  has  been  one 
of  the  best  in  the  history  of  the  Home.  For  many  years  it 
has  been  said,  even  by  those  most  closely  connected  with  the 
rescue  department,  that  the  Chinese  work  among  the  women 
and  children  would  in  time  feel  so  directly  the  effect  of  the 
exclusion  laws  of  our  land  that  there  would  be  no  need  of 
rescue  work.  There  is  as  yet  no  evidence  of  any  decline  in 
this  branch  of  the  work  of  the  Occidental  Board.  From  the 
time  of  the  entrance  into  the  new  Home,  920  Sacramento 
Street,  to  the  close  of  the  year,  there  has  been  no  cessation 
of  calls  for  help  in  rescuing  girls  and  helpless  slave  children. 
The  appeals  have  come  from  Vancouver,  in  British  Columbia, 
on  the  north  to  San  Diego  on  the  south,  and  in  each  case  an 
alert  little  soul  has  been  brought  out  of  the  darkness  of 
heathenism  into  the  light  of  the  Christian  influence  of  the 
Mission  Home.  No  less  than  nine  rescues  were  made  between 
the  August  and  September  meetings  of  the  Occidental  Board. 
When  the  little  waifs  have  been  received  into  the  Home 
there  follows  a  long  legal  battle  in  the  courts.  This  often 
continues  for  a  period  of  weeks  and  even  months.  In  each 
case  during  the  year,  which  has  been  a  trying  one,  the  Mission 
has  come  off  victorious,  albeit  there  have  been  many  anxious 
hours  for  the  women  in  charge  of  the  Home  and  for  the  faith- 
ful and  efficient  superintendent. 


494  UNITED  STATES— OCCIDENTAL  BOARD. 

The  Mission  has  sheltered,  besides  the  rescued  girls  and 
children,  thirteen  other  unfortunates  known  as  United  States 
prisoners;  so  named  because  they  have  been  brought  to  the 
Home  for  shelter  by  Custom  House  officers  rather  than  to 
the  detention  sheds,  or  placed  in  the  county  jail  like  common 
felons,  for  no  greater  crime  than  that  they  have  been  dumped 
into  this  Christian  land  with  promises  of  a  happy  home, 
which  in  many  instances  means  a  den  of  iniquity.  They  are 
held  as  prisoners  under  Christian  training,  subject  to  orders 
from  the  Federal  Government,  during  the  legal  process  that 
lands  them  in  the  United  States  or  deports  them  to  China  or 
Japan.  In  the  spacious  quarters  of  the  new  Home  a  place  is 
provided  where  such  prisoners  can  be  safely  kept  without 
fear  of  their  escape  or  that  other  members  of  the  Home  will 
1)6  contaminated  by  them  during  their  temporary  stay. 
Most  grateful  letters  reach  the  home  from  these  friendless 
sojourners  after  they  leave.  Some  whose  entrance  papers 
have  not  proved  satisfactory  have  been  deported  to  their 
native  land.  These  have  been  assisted  to  the  very  last  b}^ 
the  Mission.  Letters  are  sent  to  friends  in  China  to  care  for 
them  when  they  arrive.  One  returned  missionary  tells  of  a 
whole  village  that  was  brought  to  Christ  through  the  work  of  a 
Chinese  woman  who  was  deported  after  having  been  a  Federal 
prisoner  in  this  Presbyterian  Mission  Home.  There  are  now 
two  girls  in  the  Home  who  are  being  trained  as  teachers  and 
expect  to  return  as  missionaries  next  year  to  China. 

One  will  go  as  a  kindergarten  teacher  to  Shanghai  or  Hong- 
kong; the  other  will  go  as  a  Bible  reader.  The  organist  and 
entire  choir  in  the  Chinese  Presbyterian  Church  in  San  Fran- 
cisco are  all  from  the  Home.  There  is  a  flourishing  Bible 
class  and  Y.  P.  S.  C.  E.  in  the  Home.  When  the  girls  marry 
and  go  out  from  the  Home  no  month  goes  by  that  they  fail 
to  send  a  Scripture  text  and  25  cents  in  money  to  their  Society. 
This  shut-in  band  last  year  raised  $55  from  the  offerings  of 
its  members. 

The  Chinese  woman  and  the  Chinese  home  are  not  neglected. 
Mrs.  Gow  Wing,  one  of  the  earliest  converts  of  the  Mission, 
made  during  the  year  633  visits  in  Chinese  homes.  She 
teaches  and  reads  the  Bible.  She  attends  to  the  sick  and 
shows  Chinese  women  by  precept  and  example  what  it  means 
to  lead  a  Christian  life. 

The  educational  work  of  the  Occidental  Board  has  made 
rapid  strides  during  the  year.  There  are  six  schools  under 
care  of  the  Board — one  in  Oakland,  the  Condit  School, 
and  five  in  San  Francisco.  Two  are  located  in  the  Mission 
Home  and  three  in  the  Chinese  Presbyterian  Church.  One 
of  these  is  a  Kindergarten  taught  by  one  of  the  girls  from  the 
Mission  Home;  this  teacher  expects  to  go  to  China  next  year

REPORT  OF  THE  TREASURER 

OF   THE 

BOARD  OF  FOREIGN  MISSIONS 


The  record  of  the  year  ending  April  30,  1909,  shows  that 
$1,483,729.68  has  been  spent  in  the  work  of  the  Board,  and  that 
$1.48T, 160.77  has  been  received  for  that  work,  leaving  a  surplus 
on  the  year's  account  of  $3,431.09.  For  this  we  have  cause  to  be 
profoundh"  thankful.  If  the  Board  had  been  accused  of  being 
oversanguine  when  at  the  first  of  the  year  it  made  an  original 
appropriation  of  $1,210,000.00,  some  $60,000.00  more  than  for  the 
year  1907  at  the  beginning,  and  this  in  the  face  of  an  accumulated 
deficit  of  $170,000.00,  the  only  reply  could  have  been  that  the 
Avork  was  demanding  additions,  and  that  faith  in  the  ability  of 
the  Church  to  meet  the  obligation  was  strong.  This  faith  has 
been  rewarded,  and  the  Church  has  not  only  taken  care  of  the 
largest  foreign  missionary  obligations  in  the  histor}''  of  the  Board, 
but  has  reduced  the  deficit  by"$41.623.78.  If  we  add  to  the  total 
of  appropriations  the  amount  of  disbursements  on  some  special 
items,  such  as  interest  payments  on  special  gift  agreements, 
interest  on  special  endowment  funds,  etc.,  and  to  the  total  of 
receipts  the  credits  from  invested  securities  and  net  income  from 
the  operation  of  the  buildings  at  156  Fifth  Avenue  and  No.  5 
West  20th  Street,  New  York,  we  have  total  disbursements  of 
$1,503,232.60  and  total  receipts  of  $1,526,859.37,  leaving  a  surplus 
of  $23,626.77.  By  apphnng  this  surplus  the  deficit  is  reduced  to 
$105,481.00.  It  is  interesting  to  note  that  beginning  with  1904 
the  Board  reported  small  deficits  for  three  years  in  each  annual 
account;  then  came  1907  with  a  surplus,  but  with  the  former 
deficit  remaining;  1908  added  to  the  deficit,  but  1909  has  reduced 
it  by  nearly  $70,000.00.  This  has  only  been  made  possible  by 
splendid  work  on  the  part  of  the  Committees  in  the  Eastern 
Synods,  supported  by  pastors  and  laymen  alike,  Avho  have  been 
fired  by  a  zeal  to  remove  this  obstacle  to  progress  in  the  foreign 
missionary  enterprise  of  the  Church.  Nor  should  the  eflibrts  of 
those  workers  in  the  middle  and  far  West  be  overlooked,  compris- 
ing not  only  churches  and  societies,  but  givers  who  come  under 
the  head  of  miscellaneous  donors.  The  Women's  Boards,  always 
staunch  an(^  ifficiont  "arms  of  the  service,"  have  been  indefatigable 
in  their  ef  cts  and  have  produced  results  that  are  beyond  all 
praise.        ,

498  REPORT  OF  THE  TREASURER. 

The  churches'  gifts  have  increased  for  the  year  $25,361.71,  with 
a  total  of  $612,285.49;  the  Women's  Boards  have  increased 
$45,486.03,  with  a  total  of  $384,259.26;  Sunday  Schools  have 
increased  $7,975.81,  with  a  total  of  $72,377.02;  miscellaneous 
gifts  have  increased  $39,504.20,  with  a  total  of  $252,095.06,  and 
legacies  have  increa.sed  $54,889.57,  with  a  total  of  $124,466.34. 
The  Young  People's  Societies  have  contributed  a  total  of  $41,- 
677.60.  almost  the  exact  amount  contributed  for  1908.  Too  much 
appreciation  and  gratitude  could  not  be  expressed,  by  those  charjyed 
with  the  responsibility  at  headquarters,  to  devoted  workers  and 
friends  throughout  the  country,  for  their  often  arduous  and  untiring- 
efforts  in  behalf  of  the  work.  Pastors  and  church  members,  leaders 
of  mission  classes  and  Sunday  School  workers  have  not  only  made 
personal  sacrifices,  but  have  led  others  into  effective  support ;  and 
on  the  business  side,  in  helping  take  care  of  the  bequests  and  the 
property  interests  of  the  Board,  lawyers  have  given  their  fees  and 
have  performed  valuable  services  without  remuneration ;  pastors 
have  given  aid  freely  in  furnishing  information  regarding  wills  in 
which  the  Board  was  interested,  and  thousands  of  dollars  have 
been  thus  saved  for  the  work  in  the  field  as  a  direct  result. 

The  keen  and  intelligent  interest  in  Foreign  Missions  on  the  part 
of  laymen  throughout  the  Church  has  been  especially  apparent  in 
the  correspondence  coming  to  the  Treasurer's  office,  the  sure  sign 
of  an  era  of  effective  support  for  the  great  work  of  carrying  the 
Gospel  to  the  nations  of  the  earth.  The  Special  Gift  Agreements 
entered  into  by  the  Board  with  annuitants  during  the  year  have 
amounted  to  $10,651.42,  thus  insuring  by  so  much  the  work  of 
the  Board  in  the  future.  A  new  leaflet  describing  these  agreements 
has  been  issued  during  the  year  and  may  be  had  on  application- 

EXPENSES. 

An  analysis  of  the  expenses  of  the  year  will  be  found  in 
Schedule  5 "of  this  report.  The  percentages  of  disbursements  in 
New  York  on  account  of  Mission  work  to  the  total  sum  received

Wm.  E.  Stiger,  Esq.,  Chairman    Finance    Committee, 
Board  of  Foreign  Missions,  New  York. 

Sir  :— 

We  have  examined  the  accounts  and  vouchers  of  the  Treas- 
urer of  your  Board  for  the  year  ending  April  30,  1909. 

The  cash  and  securities  have  been  verified,  either  by 
actual  count  or  evidence  of  deposit,  and  found  in  accord 
with  the  book  records. 

We  have  verified  the  total  receipts  for  the  year,  as  shown 
by  the  Counterfoil  Receipt  books,  and  have  ascertained  that 
all  of  the  moneys  shown  therein  have  been  properly  ac- 
counted for. 

The  statements  of  disbursements  by  Field  Treasurers  for 
the  fiscal  year  just  closed  have  not  been  received  in  New  York 
at  this  date,  consequently  the  deficit  shown  by  the  Balance 
Sheet  is  subject  to  change,  according  as  the  expenditures 
have  been  more  or  less  than  the  appropriations  for  the  past 
year. 

We  have  verified  the  Balance  Sheet  herewith  with  the  books 
and  accounts,  and,  subject  to  the  statement  concerning  the 
Field  Treasurers'  Reports  for  the  fiscal  year,  the  Balance 
Sheet,  in  our  opinion,  presents  the  correct  financial  condition 
of  the  Board. 

Respectfully  submitted, 

Patterson,   Teele  &  Dennis,

NINETIETH   ANNUAL   REPORT. 


With  gratitude  to  God  for  His  manifest  blessing  upon  the  work  of 
another  year,  the  Board  of  Education  takes  pleasure  in  presenting  to 
the  General  Assembly  of  1909  its  Ninetieth  Annual  Report, 

While  the  3'ear  has  not  been  marked  by  an  increase  either  in  con- 
tributions from  churches  or  number  of  candidates  placed  under  its 
care,  we  record  with  satisfaction  a  substantial  advance  along  certain 
well-defined  lines,  viz.,  closer  touch  with  our  constituency,  and  a 
resulting  increase  in  the  number  of  contributing  churches;  more 
effective  measures  inaugurated  for  reaching  and  stimulating  the 
sources  of  supply  for  the  ministry;  a  nearer  approach  to  the  student 
body,  including  more  intimate  contact  •^dth  candidates  under  our  care ; 
development  of  the  religious  interests  of  Presbyterian  students  in 
State  educational  institutions;  and,  finally,  a  better  understanding  of 
the  need  and  a  clearer  definition  of  a  policy  for  the  training  of  workers, 
both  lay  and  ministerial,  among  our  people  of  foreign  speech. 

Charged,  as  it  has  been  from  the  beginning,  with  the  work  of  securing 
to  the  Church  an  effective  ministry  of  the  Word,  the  Board  has  not 
found  its  task  a  trifling  one.  Factors  entirely  beyond  its  province  and 
control  enter  into  the  equation.  The  spiritual  condition  of  the  Church, 
the  reactions  of  the  age  upon  religious  life  in  general,  the  educational, 
social  and  economic  changes  abroad  in  society — all  these  affect  the 
efforts  put  forth  to  develop  spiritual  leadership.  Many  of  these  fea- 
tures of  our  times  are  unfavorable  to  the  production  of  the  ministerial 
ideal.  In  many  quarters  the  preacher's  vocation  is  challenged  as  a 
vital  and  adequate  career  for  strong  men.  Your  Board  would  respect- 
fully submit  that  there  is  peculiar  and  pressing  need  at  this  time  for 
the  Church's  warm  support  of  the  cause  presented  by  this  Board. 
It  is  not  a  time  to  curtail  but  to  expand  its  powers.  Attacks  upon  the 
efficiency  and  validity  of  the  Gospel  ministry  must  be  met  by  unwaver- 
ing declarations  of  the  permanent  function  of  preaching,  and  strong 
proof  that  ministers  are  to-day  magnifying  their  calling.  Nothing 
bears  more  vitally  iipon  the, Church's  ability  to  raise  up  an  efficient 
ministry  than  the  creation  of  a  favorable  atmosphere  for  the  minis-

4         ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD  OF  EDUCATION, 

terial  ideal  in  the  home,  the  church  and  the  school.  This  is  the  Board's 
fundamental  work.  And  it  has  received  from  many  quarters  the  past 
year  cheering  assurances  that  its  efforts  have  not  been  without  fruit, 
and  that  it  has  fairly  succeeded  in  making  less  acute  a  really  critical 
situation. 

The  Board  enters  upon  another  year  of  service,  soliciting  the  closest 
scrutiny  of  its  methods  and  purpose,  believing  that  as  the  Church  of 
Christ  has  not  yet  put  on  her  full  strength  in  the  work  of  world  redemp- 
tion, so  this  "right  arm  of  the  Church"  is  yet  to  see  its  period  of  largest 
usefulness.  As  a  highly  specialized  form  of  service,  not  to  be  confused 
or  confounded  with  other  administrative  operations,  it  conceives  of 
its  work  as  lying  at  the  very  foundation  of  all  Church  activities;  for 
underneath  all  religious  problems  lies  that  of  securing  a  Gospel  minis- 
try adequate  in  character  and  numbers.  When  the  Church  is  able  to 
secure  continuously  enough  of  the  right  kind  of  men  for  the  ministry, 
the  problems  of  missions,  evangelism,  civic  righteousness,  social  better- 
ment, racial  adjustment,  in  short,  all  problems  of  Christian  ci^dliza- 
tion  are  fairly  on  their  way  to  solution. 

SUPPLY   OF   CANDIDATES, 

Under  the  Board. — Eight  hundred  candidates  have  come  under 
the  Board's  care  during  the  past  year.  Of  these,  82  are  in  academic 
courses,  in  38  institutions;  353  in  collegiate  courses,  in  78  institutions; 
and  365  in  theological  courses,  in  15  institutions;  581  are  "renewals," 
an  increase  of  25  over  last  year,  while  219  are  "new  men,"  a  decrease 
of  34  from  last  year.  Although  extremely  anxious,  in  view  of  present 
conditions,  to  assist  every  candidate  applying,  the  Board  has  not  felt 
warranted  in  lowering  its  standards  or  suspending  its  rules,  confident 
that  the  Church  will  uphold  it  in  its  time-honored  policy  of  considering 
quality  as  important  a  characteristic  of  the  Presbyterian  ministry 
as  the  number  of  men.  It  might  have  shown  an  increase  by  accepting 
37  apphcations  which  were  regretfully  declined  after  rigid  investi- 
gation. 

In  Seminaries. — Reports  from  seminaries  are  that  in  1895  there 
were  999  candidates,  the  number  dechning  to  641  in  1902.  There 
has  been  no  appreciable  increase  since  that  time,  there  being  648 
candidates  in  our  seminaries  in  1907-08  and  760  in  1908-09. 

In  Presbyteries. — For  some  reason  returns  from  the  Presbji^eries 
indicate  a  more  favorable  situation  than  the  returns  from  theological 
seminaries.  The  number  of  candidates  at  the  lowest  point  of  the  ebb 
tide  in  1903  was  779,  which  has  increased  steadily  to  1105  in  1908. 


ANNUAL   REPORT   OF   THE    BOARD    OF   EDUCATION.  5 

A  more  accurate  method  of  judging  present  conditions  is  to  ascer- 
tain the  relative  proportion  of  candidates  to  membership  of  the  Church. 
One  candidate  to  800  churcli  members  is  the  normal  average  since  1825. 
By  referring  to  the  chart*  it  will  be  seen  that  the  supply  had  fluctu- 
ated from  one  candidate  to  624  members  (abnormal)  to  one  candidate 
to  1,432  (sub-normal)  in  1903,  the  lowest  average  in  the  history  of  the 
Church.  According  to  the  records  of  the  past  year  there  is  one  candi- 
date to  1,176  members,  which  is  but  two-thirds  of  the  normal  supply. 
Our  Church,  while  slowly  returning  toward  a  normal  condition  in 
candidate  supply,  will  not  reach  it  much  before  1920,  at  the  present 
rate,  and  is  lower  than  in  1840,  when  the  separation  of  the  Old  and  the 
New  Schools  cut  down  the  supply  to  smaller  proportions  than  have 
obtained  until  the  present  low  ratio. 

General  Conditions. — According  to  the  latest  Government  statistics 
(United  States  Bureau  of  Education,  1907)  the  recent  decline  in 
general  has  not  only  been  checked  but  apparently  wiped  out.  In  1885, 
8,050  students  in  theological  institutions  were  reported.  The  number 
had  dechned  in  1905  to  7,411,  but  increased  in  1907  to  9,178.  Allow- 
ance must  be  made  for  534  women  students  and  the  inclusion  in  the 
report  of  a  number  of  Biblical  departments  in  colleges  which  should 
not  be  rated  as  theological  seminaries.  The  fact  remains,  however, 
that  between  1905  and  1907  there  was  an  increase  of  26  per  cent,  in 
attendance  upon  the  principal  Protestant  evangelical  seminaries. 
But  the  Presbyterian  seminaries  during  that  time  gained  only  five 
men. 

Within  the  last  thirty-seven  years  the  medical  students  of  the 
country  have  increased  from  166  to  291  per  million  of  the  population; 
law  students,  from  42  to  180;  dentistry,  from  6  to  80;  while  theological 
students  increased  from  84  to  90,  showing  that  preparation  for  the 
preaching  of  the  Gospel  has  in  no  wise  kept  pace  with  the  training  of 
men  for  the  other  professions. 

Foreign-speaking  Candidates. — The  General  Assembly,  recognizing 
the  obligation  resting  upon  our  Church  to  preach  the  Gospel  in  tongues 
of  all  people,  laid  upon  the  Board  the  task  of  surveying  conditions 
among  immigrants  in  this  country  and  the  shaping  of  a  policy  by  which 
our  responsibility  in  their  behalf  can  be  discharged.  In  obedience 
thereto  this  Board  has  prepared  a  supplemental  report  upon  this 
question,  embodying  certain  recommendations.  There  are  at  present 
under  the  care  of  the  Board  133  foreign-speaking  candidates  (again  of 

*  See  frontispiece.

16  over  last  year),  18  of  whom  are  Italians,  15  Bohemians,  18  Spanish, 
1  Swiss,  4  Riithenians,  15  Hungarians,  50  Germans,  3  Japanese,  4 
Hebrews,  1  Slovak,  2  Mexicans,  2  Russo-Germans,  1  Chinese.  We 
have  also  72  colored  candidates. 

METHODS    OF   APPROACH. 

Scholarship  Aid. — The  past  year  a  maximum  scholarship  of 
one  hundred  dollars  was  granted  to  collegiate  and  seminary  students 
and  ninety  dollars  to  academic  students.  Care  has  been  taken  that 
in  each  instance  an  aggregate  svmi  of  not  more  than  two  hundred  dol- 
lars should  be  paid  to  a  candidate  jointly  by  the  Board  and  the  insti- 
tution. In  cases  where  a  seminary  has  granted  more  than  one  hundred 
dollars  the  Board  has  cut  down  its  appropriation,  but  these  cases  have 
been  rare. 

The  legitimacy  of  scholarship  aid  is  based  upon  several  im- 
portant considerations: 

(1)  The  fact  that  the  majority  of  candidates  for  the  ministry 
come  from  families  which,  though  rich  in  faith  and  Christian  \artues, 
are  limited  in  their  ability  to  provide  for  the  training  of  their  children. 
The  majority  of  ministerial  candidates  come  from  the  humbler  homes 
of  the  Church.  Famihes  whose  customs  are  simple,  frugal  and  unaf- 
fected, generally  produce  the  best  type  of  minister.  Out  of  348  Presby- 
terian candidates  from  whom  these  facts  were  secm-ed,  172  were  the 
sons  of  farmers,  44  of  ministers,  29  of  merchants,  20  of  laborers,  10  of 
carpenters,  10  of  manufacturers,  8  of  lawyers,  8  of  physicians,  7  of 
traveling  salesmen,  5  of  professors,  4  of  railroad  men,  4  of  real  estate 
men,  4  of  accountants,  3  of  newspaper  men,  3  of  druggists,  3  of  mill- 
men,  while  the  remaining  14  were  sons  of  men  engaged  in  11  different 
occupations.  This  record  indicates  clearly  the  inability  of  the  average 
parent  of  a  candidate  to  provide  for  a  long  course  of  special  training. 

(2)  The  grant  is  conditioned  upon  the  candidate's  qualifications 
as  determined  by  Presbytery  as  to  piety,  sincerity,  abihty  to  teach  and 
preach,  and  by  the  Board  in  the  matter  of  academic  preparation,  con- 
tinuous and  liigh  grade  work  in  college  and  seminary,  high  moral  con- 
duct, and  conscientious  use  of  scholarship  funds. 

(3)  Pecuniary  aid  is  given,  not  loaned,  in  obedience  to  the  theoiy 
that  the  Church  owes  to  her  sons  an  education  which  fits  them  alone 
for  her  service  and  unfits  them  for  any  other.  As  they  separate  them- 
selves unto  the  high  calling,  putting  behind  them  the  hope  and  the 
means  of  securing  a  material  fortune,  it  is  as  much  the  duty  of  the 


ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD  OF  EDUCATION.  / 

Church  to  provide  for  them  during  their  years  of  training  as  in  the  sub- 
sequent period  of  their  direct  return  to  the  Church  in  service.  It  is 
therefore,  in  no  sense  a  charity,  but  in  the  largest  degree  an  investment. 
No  corporation  is  warranted  in  expecting  large  returns  from  its  capital 
if  it  ventures  nothing  in  the  development  of  its  properties.  The  Church 
is  receiving  ample  yearly  returns  from  thjs  sacred  form  of  investment. 
The  Board,  therefore,  performs  a  threefold  service  to  the  church,  (1) 
by  assisting  into  the  ministry  many  young  men  otherwise  lost  to  her 
service;  (2)  by  safeguarding  the  Church  against  the  intrusion  of  un- 
worthy applicants,  and  (3)  by  purchasing  annually  hundreds  of  years 
of  service  for  the  Church.  This  service  thus  secured,  by  which  young 
men  are  not  compelled  to  interrupt  their  education  by  returning  to 
employment,  is  worth  many  times  its  cost. 

Students  failing  to  attain  a  high  level  of  scholarship  and  moral 
worth  are  dealt  with  firmly  yet  sympathetically.  If,  after  due  admon- 
ishing, they  do  not  meet  the  requirements,  their  aid  is  withheld. 
Complete  records  of  each  candidate's  class  standing,  punctuality,  econ- 
omy and  Christian  conduct  must  be  received  before  the  November 
and  March  payments.  The  Board  is  pleased  to  report  that  485  of  our 
candidates  were  marked  "high"  or  "medium  plus"  in  scholarship,  aid 
having  been  withheld  in  a  number  of  instances  with  beneficial  results. 
Eight  have  married  during  the  year  and  three  have  been  ordained, 
which  necessitated  their  elimination  from  the  roll.  One  has  been 
dropped  for  unbecoming  conduct  and  one  for  poor  scholarship. 

Exceptional  Cases. — The  Board  has  used  the  discretion  allowed  it 
by  the  last  Assembly,  in  favor  of  exceptional  cases  among  students  in 
the  former  Cumberland  territory,  with  much  caution.  Its  promise 
that  the  number  of  such  cases  would  be  reduced  to  a  minimum  has  been 
fulfilled.  The  Board  is  happy  to  report  that  the  Presbyteries  occupy- 
ing the  former  Cumberland  territory  have  cordially  co-operated  in  the 
effort  to  secure  high  standards  in  ministerial  education,  and  that  there 
is  no  further  need  of  special  dispensation  in  favor  of  their  candidates. 
But  among  the  ranks  of  the  former  Cumberland  Church  ministrj^  are 
a  few  comparatively  young  men  who  were  ordained  without  a  seminary 
course  prior  to  the  Union.  It  is  recommended  that  in  all  such  cases, 
where  such  men  are  able  to  take  a  seminary  course,  and  are  duly  recom- 
mended for  such  a  course  by  their  respective  Presbyteries,  the  Board 
be  authorized  to  accept  them  for  aid  regardless  of  collegiate  preparation, 
and  that  they  be  given  all  proper  encouragement  and  assistance,  the 
Board  reserving  to  itself  the  right  to  reject  such  as  may  not,  in  its 
estimation,  be  able  to  profit  by  such  a  course. 


8  ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD  OF  EDUCATION. 

Prize  Scholarships. — The  Secretary's  Scholarship  has  been  held 
for  three  years  by  Mr,  George  M.  Day,  a  graduate  of  San  Francisco 
Theological  Seminary.  He  has  been  taking,  post-graduate  work  at 
Halle,  Germany,  and  elsewhere,  and  has  carried  on  his  studies  to  the 
satisfaction  of  the  Board.  His  incumbency  of  the  Scholarship  termi- 
nates this  year,  and  it  is  the  purpose  of  the  Board  to  offer  it  for  com- 
petition to  the  students  of  the  German  Theological  School  of  the  North- 
west. 

The  Newberry  Scholarship,  offered  to  the  students  of  McCormick 
Seminary,  was  awarded  to  Mr.  E.  C.  Hamilton,  who  graduates  tliis  year 
from  McCormick  Seminary,  and  intends  to  pursue  his  post-graduate 
course  under  the  terms  of  this  scholarship. 

The  present  holder  of  the  Mutchmore  Scholarship  is  ]\Ir.  John  Y. 
Crothers,  a  graduate  of  Omaha  Theological  Seminary.  It  will  not  be 
awarded  during  the  coming  year,  in  order  to  make  a  larger  scholarship 
available  in  1910. 

The  Board,  experiencing  certain  difficulties  in  administering  these 
Special  Scholarships  under  its  regular  rules,  would  call  the  attention  of 
the  General  Assembly  to  the  following  action : 

"  Whereas,  It  appears  that  Mr.  George  M.  Day,  the  holder  of  the 
tSecretary's  Scholarship  for  the  three  years  ending  with  1909,  was,  in 
the  spring  of  1908,  ordained  by  the  Presbytery  of  Benicia,  and 

"  Whereas,  A  question  has  been  raised  as  to  the  powers  of  this 
Board  to  continue  to  Mr.  Day  the  income  from  this  scholarship  after 
the  Tclate  of  his  ordination,  and, 

"  Whereas,  It  appears  that  both  Mr.  Day  and  the  Presbytery  of 
Benicia  were  wholly  unaware  that  any  such  question  would  arise,  on 
account  of  the  fact  of  such  ordination,  and, 

''Whereas,  We  understand  that  Mr.  Day,  expecting  to  labor  in 
Japan,  and  desiring  to  be  ordained  by  his  home  Presbytery,  both  on 
account  of  his  father's  being  a  member  of  that  Presbytery  and  because 
it  would  be  impracticable  for  him  to  receive  ordination  in  our  Church 
after  reaching  Japan,  was  ordained  on  the  eve  of  leaving  home  for  a 
year's  study  in  Germany,  under  the  direction  of  this  Board,  intending 
to  proceed  directly  from  Germany,  where  he  now  is,  to  Japan,  and 

"  Whereas,  Mr.  Day  had  won  this  scholarship  in  a  competitive 
examination,  and  this  in  a  way  removing  this  case  from  the  list  of 
ordinary  beneficiaries  of  the  Board,  therefore, 

"  Resolved,  That  this  Board,  waiving  the  question  of  irregularity 
in  this  instance  and  disclaiming  any  precedent  in  its  action,  continue

TO  Mr.  Day  the  benefits  of  this  scholarship  until  the  expiration  of 
the  term  for  which  he  holds  it,  subject  to  the  approval  of  the 
General  Assembly  of  1909,  and, 

"  Resolved,  That  in  view  of  all  the  special  features  of  this  case,  as 
indicated  above,  this  Board  does  unanimously  request^  the  General 
Assembly  of  1909  to  approve  this  action."  {Exlract  from  Minutes, 
October  £6,  1908.) 

Resolved.  1.  That  the  Board  be  permitted  to  extend  to  theholdere 
of  the  Mutchmore  and  the  Secretary's  Scholarships  the  right  now 
accorded  to  the  holder  of  the  Newberry  Scholarship,  to  spend  a  year 
of  graduate  study  in  foreign  universities  at  the  discretion  of  the  Board, 

2.  That  authority  be  given  the  Board  to  permit,  at  its  discretion, 
marriage  or  ordination,  or  both,  to  the  holders  of  its  special  scholar- 
ships after  graduation  from  the  theological  seminary. 

VISITATION    OF   THE    FIELD. 

The  cause  has  been  presented  by  the  Secretaries  in  thirty  churches, 
emphasis  being  laid  upon  the  responsibility  of  pastors,  parents,  Sunday- 
school  officers  and  teachers  for  the  placing  of  ideals  of  sacrifice  and 
service  before  young  people,  rather  than  upon  the  need  of  the  Board  for 
funds.  This  method  has  received  the  hearty  endorsement  of  minis- 
ters and  people  generally.  Sixteen  Synods  and  ten  Presbyteries  have 
been  reached  by  the  Secretaries  during  the  past  year,  besides  thirteen 
other  gatherings  addressed,  including  ministerial  conferences,  Brother- 
hoods and  Sunday-schools. 

The  following  seminaries  have  been  visited:  Allegheny,  Austin, 
Hartford,  Lebanon  and  Louisville. 

Addresses  to  students  and  personal  conferences  have  been  given 
at  the  following  colleges:  Cumberland  University  and  Bethel  College, 
Tenn. ;  Hanover  and  Wabash,  Ind. ;  Lincoln,  James  Milliken,  Black- 
burn, Lake  Forest  and  Illinois,  in  IlHnois ;  Lafayette,  Washington 
and  Jefferson,  Grove  City,  Western  University,  in  Pennsylvania; 
Trinity,  in  Texas;  Park,  Missouri  Valley,  Westminster  and  Linden- 
wood,  in  Missouri;  Indianola  and  Robert  Kendall,  in  Oklahoma; 
Arkansas  Cumberland,  in  Arkansas;  Highland,  in  Kansas;  Hastings,  in 
Nebraska;  Parsons,  Lenox  and  Buena  Vista,  in  Iowa;  Macalester, 
in  Minnesota;  Carroll,  in  Wisconsin;  Wooster,  in  Ohio. 

Also  the  following  academies :  Lawrenceville,  Blairstown  and 
Bridget  on     N.    J.  ;L'nion,    111.;  Auburn    and    Bowling    Green,    Ky. ;

Manton  Collegiate,  Texas;  Castle  Heights,  Tenn.;  Stillman  Institute, 
Ala. 

The  following  State  institutions  have  been  visited:  The  Universi- 
ties of  Indiana  (Bloomington,  Ind.),  Purdue  (Lafayette,  Ind.),  Illinois, 
Arkansas,  Texas,  Oklahoma,  Missouri,  Iowa,  Mississippi,  Alabama, 
Wisconsin,  Pennsylvania  (State  •  College),  Ohio  (Columbus)  and 
Nebraska;  also  Tulane  University,  New  Orleans,  La.,  and  the  Mechani- 
cal and  Agricultural  College  at  Starkville,  Miss. 

Close  study  of  the  moral  and  religious  atmosphere  of  the  colleges 
and  universities  leads  to  the  conclusion  that  broad  generalities  are 
notoriously  misleading.  It  is  not  always  possible  to  forecast  the  tone 
of  an  institution  from  its  affiliations.  In  a  few  Christian  colleges  the 
religious  atmosphere  might  be  less  formal,  while  in  some  institutions 
which  have  to  struggle  for  what  religion  they  have,  the  spirit  of  the 
college  reflects  a  healthy  religious  tone.  It  is,  however,  discouraging 
to  pass  from  one  State  institution  to  another  and  find  so  little  interest 
in  the  ministerial  vocation.  This  is  partly  due  to  the  fact  that  young 
people  intending  to  become  ministers  and  missionaries  do  not  choose 
State  institutions,  but  preferably  attend  a  professedly  Christian  college. 
From  such  colleges  we  secure  the  large  share  of  the  best  material  for 
the  ministry.  The  general  appearance  and  spirit  of  the  candidates 
gives  the  impression  of  their  superiority  to  the  average  run  of  students. 
At  the  parlor  conferences  almost  every  ministerial  student  was  in 
attendance  and  a  feeling  of  deep  earnestness  was  conspicuous.  A  list 
of  our  candidates  agreeing  to  act  as  special  agents  for  the  Board  in 
arousing  interest  among  their  friends  in  the  ministerial  caUing  has  been 
secured.  This  personal  touch  of  students  upon  the  situation,  it  is  hoped, 
will  produce  marked  effects  upon  the  supply  ere  long. 

THE    PRINTED    PAGP-. 

The  Board  has  enlarged  its  faciUties  for  distributing  appropriate 
leaflets,  reprints,  pamphlets  and  books  to  pastors,  parents,  professors 
and  students.  With  the  conviction  that  the  sources  of  supply  must  be 
sought  and  influences  brought  to  bear  upon  the  home  and  the  Sunday- 
school  for  the  creation  of  a  deeper  concern,  the  Board  has  embraced 
every  opportunity  of  putting  into  proper  hands  the  following  pubU- 
cations : 

"The  Ministry:  a  Challenge  and  Appeal  to  Christian  Young  Men" 
— ^Marquess. 

■'Shall  I  Enter  the  Ministry?"— Burtt.

dent Taft. 

"The  Ministry  of  Reconciliation" — ^Taylor. 

Extra  pages  of  the  Assembly  Herald  have  been  purchased,  and* 
reprints  of  the  best  articles  secured  for  distribution.  The  February 
number  of  the  Westminster  Teacher  was,  through  the  generous  co- 
operation of  the  Board  of  Publication  and  Sabbath-school  Work,  given' 
up  to  our  cause,  and  the  suggestion  made  through  it  and  the  religious- 
newspapers  that  February  14,  the  Sabbath  following  the  Day  of 
Prayer  for  Colleges,  should  be  used  in  the  Sunday-schools  for  public 
appeals  by  pastors.  Sabbath-school  officers  and  teachers,  that  the 
minds  of  the  young  might  be  led  in  the  direction  of  the  highest  voca- 
tional ideals.  If  ministers  and  churches  could  be  aroused  to  their 
neglect  in  failing  to  cultivate  the  soil  for  the  growth  of  the  ministerial 
and  missionary  motives  in  the  hearts  of  the  young,  this  Board's  task 
would  be  far  easier  than  it  is.  We  desire,  the  coming  year,  to  attack 
the  root  causes  of  the  decline  as  far  as  possible.  "Presenting  the  cause " 
must  mean  the  appeal  for  life,  more  than  the  appeal  for  money.  Our 
aim  shall  be  to  reach  all  workers  in  churches,  and  especially  Sunday- 
schools,  and  to  urge  pastors,  parents  and  teachers  to  seek  out  chosen 
material  to  a  larger  extent  than  ever  before. 

The  valuable  set  of  nine  pamphlets  issued  the  pastyear  by  the 
International  Committee  of  the  Young  Men's  Christian  Association 
was  sent  out  to  the  Board's  correspondents  in  every  institution  where 
we  have  candidates.  Names  of  men  whd  might  be  led  to  consider  the 
call  to  the  ministry  are  being  constantly  forwarded  by  our  special 
agents  in  the  schools.  These  are  pereonally  addressed  through  letters 
and  are  furnished  with  literature.  The  recently  issued  book  of  Mr, 
John  R.  Mott,  "The  Future  Leadership  of  the  Church,"  will,  through 
arrangement  with  its  publishers,  be  within  the  reach  of  every  minister 
of  our  Church  within  a  short  time. 

Generous  friends  have  made  it  possible  for  the  Board  to  announce 
valuable  prize  offers  of  books  to  ministers  who  will  prepare  and  deliver 


12     '    ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD  OF  EDUCATION. 

addresses  or  sermons  dealing  with  the  needs  and  opportunities  of  the 
sacred  calling.  It  is  hoped  that  in  this  way  thousands  of  public  appeals 
will  be  made  to  churches  and  student  gatherings,  and  the  Board  be  put 
in  possession  of  the  freshest  and  most  inspiring  material  for  publica- 
tion from  time  to  time. 

THE    DAY    OF    PRAYER. 

The  change  of  the  Day  of  Prayer  to  the  Thursday  preceding  the 
second  Sunday  in  February  proved  to  be  in  every  way  satisfactory, 
the  colleges,  almost  without  exception,  adopting  it  and  profiting  by  it. 
The  Board  sent  out  a  questionnaire  to  the  colleges  concerning  the  value 
of  the  day,  and  found  that  it  was  generally  observed  with  the  most 
beneficial  results.  In  a  number  of  instances  revivals  were  experienced 
in  connection  with  the  day's  observance.  It  is  recommended  that  the 
change  be  adhered  to,  and  that  the  Thursday  immediately  preceding 
tlie  second  Sunday  of  February,  1910,  be  observed  as  a  Day  of  Prayer 
for  Colleges  and  Universities. 

PRESBYTERIAN  STUDENTS  IN  STATE  UNIVERSITIES. 

In  accordance  vnth.  the  direction  of  the  Assembly  relative  to  con- 
tinuing the  Board's  work  in  the  matter  of  the  supply  of  the  religious 
needs  of  Presbyterian  students  in  State  Universities,  the  Board  would 
report  that  the  pre-Assembly  Conference  at  Kansas  City  was  attended 
by  about  seventy-five  representatives  of  the  work,  including  our  own 
student  pastors,  the  Revs.  J.  Leslie  French,  of  Ann  Arbor;  M.  G.  Alli- 
son, of  Madison;  James  M.  Duer,  of  Champaign,  and  Francis  A.  Wilber, 
of  Lawrence.  Among  the  speakers  were  President  Henry  C.  Culbert- 
son,  of  Emporia  College,  and  Chancellor  Frank  Strong,  of  the  University 
of  Kansas. 

The  Assembly  also  recommended  that  "gifts  and  endowments 
.  .  be  encouraged."  The  Board  would  report  that  three 
Synods  are  now  agitating  the  question  of  buildings  for  the  housing  of 
this  special  work.  Westminster  House,  at  Kansas,  to  be  erected  as  a 
gift  by  a  friend  of  the  work,  is  to  have  a  thirty-thousand-dollar  endow- 
ment, most  of  which  has  been  raised  during  the  year.  Kansas  contribu- 
ting almost  the  entire  amount.  The  Corresponding  Secretary  spent 
three  weeks  in  Kansas,  co-operating  with  the  Rev.  Dr.  Robert  E.  L. 
Jarvis,  of  Winfield,  Special  Representative  of  the  Trustees  of  West- 
minster House  in  the  raising  of  the  endowment  fund.  Some  money 
was  also  contributed  by  friends  in  the  East. 


ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD  OF  EDUCATION.         13 

The  Synod  of  Pennsylvania  has  recommended  the  raising  of  at 
least  fifty  thousand  dollars  for  the  erection  of  a  new  house  of  worship 
at  State  College,  Pa.,  where  three  hundred  and  fifty  Presbyterian  stu- 
dents are  studying  in  this  important  institution. 

The  Committee  on  Education  of  the  Synod  of  Illinois  is  also  plan- 
ning for  the  creation  of  a  sixty-thousand-dollar  endowment  for  the  work 
at  the  University  of  Illinois.  A  woman's  hall  of  residence,  which  is 
greatly  needed,  is  projected.  The  Rev.  James  M.  Duer  resigned  as 
student  pastor  on  April  1 ;  and  has  been  succeeded  by  the  Rev.  Martin 
E.  Andereon,  a  graduate  of  the  Class  of  1909  of  McCormick  Seminary. 
He  takes  up  the  work  with  much  enthusiasm  and  large  prospects  of 
success. 

In  all  instances  where  endowments  are  being  created,  the  Board, 
acting  in  conjunction  with  Synodical  Committees,  feels  that  the  utmost 
care  should  be  exercised  so  as  to  safeguard  and  insure  the  perpetuity 
of  all  such  endowments  to  the  Presbyterian  Church  in  connection  with 
this  work. 

Being  admittedly  the  only  administrative  agency  of  the  Presby- 
terian Church  to  whom  has  been  committed  this  task,  and  to  whom  it 
properly  belongs,  the  Board  requests  the  Assembly  to  define  more 
fully  and  clearly  its  responsibihties  in  the  matter  of  the  raising  of  endow- 
ments for  work  at  State  educational  institutions. 

Fifteen  State  universities  have  been  visited  by  the  Secretaries 
during  the  past  year.  The  sympathetic  attitude  of  the  presidents  of 
the  institutions  has  been  a  feature  of  these  visits.  As  an  instance  of 
this  we  would  report  the  invitation  extended  to  the  Corresponding 
Secretary  to  deliver  the  baccalaureate  address  at  the  Univereity  of  Iowa 
at  the  commencement  of  the  graduating  class  of  1908.  At  one  of  these 
institutions  it  was  learned  that  a  wealthy  citizen  had  ordered  his 
daughter  home,  because  he  had  sent  her  to  the  university  to  secure  an 
education  and  not  to  be  led  off  into  missionary  work  among  the  heathen. 
Dr.  Darby  was  urged  not  to  be  afraid  of  making  his  address  too  re- 
ligious. "They  are  used  to  it  here,"  was  the  official  explanation. 
At  chapel  exercises  prayer  was  requested  by  the  President  in  behalf 
of  a  student  who  was  very  ill. 

On  his  arrival  at  another  State  university  the  Board's  representa- 
tive learned  that  a  lecture  was  about  to  be  given  in  the  chapel.  The 
first  words  that  greeted  his  ears  were  "justification  by  faith."  Pro- 
fessor Hugh  Black  was  speaking  to  the  students,  the  President  being 
responsible  for  the  series  of  religious  addresses  delivered  by  him. 


14  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE   BOARD    OF    EDDCATION. 

Applicatioas  were  received  during  the  year  from  the  Committees 
of  six  Synods  in  behalf  of  the  Universities  of  Michigan,  IlUnois,  Wiscon- 
sin, Kansas,  Iowa  and  State  College,  Pennsylvania.  The  two  last 
named  are  on  the  Board  for  the  first  time  this  year. 

The  Presbyterians  at  the  University  of  Ohio  (Columbus)  and  the 
University  of  Nebraska  (Lincoln)  are  taking  steps  to  develop  the 
work,  and  are  hoping  to  have  student  pastors  on  the  field  by  the  opening 
of  the  next  scholastic  year. 

It  is  clear  that  this  work  cannot  be  placed  upon  a  firm  foundation 
until  endowments  are  secured.  Until  this  is  done  few  men  of  the  high- 
est calibre  will  feel  justified  in  leaving  settled  pastorates  to  enter  this 
untried  field.  Efforts  to  put  the  work  upon  a  sound  financial  basis 
are  unfavorably  affected  by  the  prejudice  attending  a  new  departure 
in  a  field  traditionally  considered  to  be  outside  the  Church's  work.  But 
the  Church  is  awaking  to  the  realization  that  Presbyterian  young  people 
by  the  thousand  attend  State  universities,  and  that  there  is  no  reason 
to  believe  that  this  educational  current  can  be  changed.  It  is  believed 
by  farsighted  Church  leaders  that  this  university  work  will  be  in  time 
one  of  the  greatest  tasks  in  which  the  Church  can  engage.  A  President 
of  a  Presbyterian  College  said  recently,  "This  is  the  greatest  Home 
^fission  work  before  the  Church."  Has  not  the  day  dreamed  of  and 
prayed  for  by  Christian  friends  of  secular  education  come  to  its  dawning? 
The  query  of  Dr.  Kelsey,  of  the  Presbyterian  Church  of  Ann  Arbor, 
"Shall  the  churches  heed  the  call  of  the  university?"  is  being  answered 
month  by  month  in  less  uncertain  tones.  The  question  now  before 
the  churches  is  seen  to  be  not  "What  can  be  done  to  stem  the  tide?" 
but  "What  can  be  done  to  make  and  keep  vital  the  religious  atmos- 
phere of  the  young  men  and  women  at  the  universities?" 

No  hard  and  fast  methods  can  be  employed.  Generally  speaking,. 
however,  there  are  five: 

(1)  Activity  through  the  local  church.  Perhaps  the  best  work 
done  by  student  pastors  without  institutional  help  is  that  of  the  Uni- 
versity of  Wisconsin,  where  is  emphasized  the  necessity  of  centering 
the  work  in  the  local  church.  The  success  of  the  movement  is  regarded 
as  dependent  upon  the  church's  ability  to  hold  the  young  people,  rather 
than  as  an  educational  or  social  effort  loosely  related  to  the  local  church. 

(2)  Lectureships.  Several  denominations  have  endowed  lecture 
foundations,  where  regular  or  special  lecturers  give  courses  in  the 
Bible,  Christian  Ethics,  Church  History  and  allied  subjects. 

(3)  Guild  Halls.     Tappan  Hall  at  Ann  Arbor,   owned  by  the 


ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD  OF  EDUCATION.        15 

Presbyterians,  a  plant  worth  forty  thousand  dollaii?,  with  an  eleven- 
thoiisand-dollar  endowment,  is  a  typical  illustration.  The  student 
pastor  here  conducts  classes  in  Bible  and  Church  History,  gathers 
groups  in  his  own  home,  encourages  interest  in  the  local  Christian 
Endeavor  Society,  and  does  regular  pastoral  work.  He  is  a  member 
of  the  Faculty  of  the  University,  in  the  Chair  of  Semitics. 

Westminster  House,  at  Lawrence,  will  soon  be  the  latest  illihtra- 
tion  of  Presbyterian  interest  at  the  State  university.  It  will  so^jj 
enjoy  the  facilities  of  a  beautiful  and  commodious  edifice.  \ 

(4)  The  affiliated  college.  Only  one  instance  of  the  movement  of 
a  church  college  toward  the  university  is  found  in  this  country,  but 
several  successful  efforts  of  this  kind  are  in  operation  in  Canada. 
Wesley  College,  of  the  Methodist  Church,  has  moved  to  the  University 
of  North  Dakota,  at  Grand  Forks,  each  in.stitution  giving  credit  for 
courses  taken  in  the  other. 

Following  the  Assembly's  recommendation,  the  Board  has  co- 
operated with  other  Churches  in  this  work  through  conferences.  The 
Religious  Education  Association  met  in  Chicago,  in  March,  in  conjunc- 
tion with  the  Interdenominational  Conference  of  Church  and  Guild 
Workere  in  State  Universities,  the  Corresponding  Secretary  readino-  a' 
paper  on  "The  Religious  Denominations  and  the  State  Universities  " 
which  can  be  secured  at  the  Board  rooms. 

The  conviction  is  forced  upon  the  Board  that  efforts  from  without 
can  result  only  in  a  partial  work,  and  that  the  university  needs  to  be 
vitally  Christianized  from  within.  It  is  absolutely  necessary  that  the 
Church  should  interest  herself  in  the  personnel  of  the  faculties  of  State 
universities.  Vice-Provost  Smith  of  the  University  of  Pennsylvania 
said:  "What  this  school  needs  most  of  all  is  not  the  study  of  'isms' 
and  some  new  way  to  get  to  heaven  but  an  old-fashioned  revival  " 
and  that  revival  will  come  only  when  the  faculty,  from  the  President 
down  to  the  last  instructor,  are  living  witnesses  for  Christ. 

CONTRIBUTIONS. 

Receipts  from  the  churches  this  year,  notwithstanding  special 
efforts,  show  a  decrease  of  $1,138,  whereas  there  was  an  increase  of 
20  per  cent,  last  year.  This  cannot  be  charged  to  a  decrease  of  inter- 
est in  the  Board's  work,  but  only  to  the  recent  financial  depression 
throughout  the  country.  The  Board  has  received,  however,  about 
$8,000  from  undesignated  legacies  over  the  amount  of  the  previous 
year,  but  this  increase  has  not  been  commensurate  with  the  enlarged 


16  ANNUAL   REPORT   OF   THE   BOARD   OF   EDUCATION. 

work  of  the  Board.  To  meet  this  $2,282  have  been  taken  from  our 
already  depleted  emergency  fund.  It  is  earnestly  hoped  that  a  sjDecial 
effort  will  be  made  by  the  larger  churches  to  return  to  their  normal 
offerings,  the  decrease  having  been  occasioned  by  the  falUng  off  of 
contributions  from  the  stronger  churches. 

T-^ie  Rev.  Dr.  Darby,  Assistant  Secretary,  has  been  able  to  increase 
to  ?  very  considerable  extent  the  number  of  contributing  churches 
ip  the  former  Cumberland  territory.  An  unusual  number  of  weak 
churches  have  contributed  small  amounts  during  the  past  year,  indi- 
cating the  success  of  the  efforts  of  the  Assistant  Secretary  among  that 
constituency  with  which  he  is  especially  familiar. 

The  Board  cannot  feel  that  its  work  is  upon  a  sound  financial 
basis  until  the  churches  shall  contribute  the  entire  amount  needed  for 
scholarships.  In  so  doing  the  churches  may  feel  that  they  are  not  con- 
tributing one  cent  to  the  administrative  expenses  of  the  Board,  which 
are  being  taken  care  of  by  invested  funds.  It  is  hoped  that  the  self- 
supporting  Synods  will  recognize  the  desirability  of  making  their 
offerings  to  the  Board  commensurate  with  the  Board's  grants  to  their 
candidates.  Self-support  in  Home  Missions  would  seem  to  imply 
self-support  in  the  training  of  future  Home  missionaries.  The  Board 
would  recommend  that  such  Synods  be  requested  to  consider  favor- 
ably this  suggestion. 

OVERTURES   79   AND    80. 

The  Presb5^ery  of  Utica  overtured  the  Assembly  of  1908  concern- 
ing the  Board's  conduct  of  examinations  in  the  English  Bible  in  con- 
nection with  the  granting  of  scholarships  to  candidates.  After  con- 
ference with  the  author  of  Overtures  79  and  80,  and  a  thorough  investi- 
gation of  conditions,  the  Board  suggests  that  the  Assembly  consider 
the  measures  proposed  as  inexpedient  for  the  present.  At  the  same 
time  the  Board  expresses  its  belief  that  a  larger  knowledge  of  the 
English  Bible  should  be  had  by  all  candidates  applying  for  scholar 
ships.  It  would  suggest,  therefore,  that  Presb\i;eries  be  properly 
instructed  in  the  matter  of  examining  their  candidates  thoroughly 
in  the  essentials  of  Bible  truth. 

GUARANTY     INSURANCE. 

The  last  General  Assembly  submitted  to  the  Boards  the  question 
whether  it  would  be  advisable  that  the  Treasurers  ''  of  all  trust  funds 
of  Boards  should  carry  guaranty  insurance  on  all  cash  balances  held 
in  bank. " 


ANNUAL  REPORT  OP  THE  BOARD  OF  EDUCATION.         17 

The  Board,  on  April  28,  1909,  adopted  a  resolution  declaring 
"  That  this  Board  having  considered,  in  all  its  aspects,  the  question  of 
insuring  its  Bank  Balances,  is  of  the  opinion  that  such  insurance  is 
not  necessary  or  expedient." 

COLORED    CUMBERLAND    PRESBYTERLVXS. 

The  educational  interests  of  the  Colored  Cumberland  Presbyterians 
have  been  looked  after  in  some  measure  by  the  Assistant  Secretary 
of  the  Board,  in  co-operation  with  the  Freedmen's  Board  and  in  his 
capacity  as  Corresponding  Secretary  of  the  Educational  Society  of  the 
C.  P.  Church,  whose  Board  of  Management  is  located  at  Nashville, 
Tenn.  These  educational  interests  stand  for  the  future  growth  and 
usefulness  of  a  separate  and  independent  denomination  of  Colored 
Presbyterians,  and  the  work  is  worthy  of  the  heartiest  sympathy  and 
most  helpful  co-operation  of  all  Presbyterians  who  are  interested  in 
the  evangelization  and  general  uplift  of  the  negro  race.  Particular 
attention  has  been  given  to  the  schools  at  Bowling  Green,  Ky. ;  Hunts- 
ville,  Ala.,  and  Newbern,  Tenn.  At  Bowling  Green  there  is  a  Bible 
Department,  at  the  head  of  which  is  Rev.  C.  P.  McLurkin,  a  graduate 
of  Lincoln  University,  who  is  sustained  entirely  by  an  appropriation 
made  by  the  Freedmen's  Board.  In  this  department  there  are  nine 
young  men  preparing  for  the  ministry,  all  of  whom  have  received 
special  assistance  during  the  year.  It  is  not  the  aim  of  this  institution 
to  do  more  than  preparatory  work,  and  the  hope  is  that  from  year  to 
year  young  men  will  be  sent  forward  to  the  colleges  and  theological 
seminaries  of  our  own  or  some  kindred  denomination. 

MEMBERS. 

The  Board  has  suffered  the  loss  by  death  of  one  of  its  members 
the  past  year,  T.  M.  Rogers,  Esq.,  who  served  faithfully  for  twelve 
years.  The  Board  has  placed  on  record  its  appreciation  of  his  faithful 
service,  and  has  elected  Dr.  George  W.  Warren,  of  Swarthmore,  Pa.,  to 
fill  out  his  unexpired  term.  The  General  Assembly  is  respectfully 
requested  to  confirm  this  election. 

The  re-election  of  the  following  named  members,  whose  period  of 
service  has  expired,  is  also  recommended:  Charles  Wadsworth,  Jr., 
D.D.,  Rev.  John  Calhoun,  Wilham  H.  Oxtoby,  D.D.,  George  W. 
Bailey,  M.D.,  Samuel  D.  Oliphant,  Esq.,  Edward  B.  Hodge,  Jr.,  M.D.

TWENTY-EIGHTH   ANNUAL   EEPORT 

OF  THE 

EDUCATIONAL  SOCIETY  OF  THE  CUMBER- 
LAND PRESBYTERIAN  CHURCH. 


On  behalf  of  the  Educational  Society  of  the  Cumberland  Presby- 
terian Church  (this  being  its  corporate  name),  the  undersigned  respect- 
fully report  to  the  General  Assembly  of  the  Presbyterian  Church  U.  S. 
A.  that  the  Board  of  Directors  of  said  Society  have  held  one  formal 
meeting  during  the  year  for  the  purpose  of  electing  officers  and  filling 
vacancies.  As  instructed  by  the  General  Assembly  and  according  to 
arrangement  with  the  Board  of  Missions  for  Freedmen,  this  Board, 
through  its  Corresponding  Secretary,  has  given  special  attention  during 
the  year  to  the  educational  interests  of  the  Cumberland  Presbyterian 
Church,  Colored.  It  will  be  remembered  that  this  is  a  separate  and 
independent  organization  of  Colored  Presbyterians,  numbering  prob- 
ably twenty-five  thousand,  with  five  Synods  and  eighteen  Presbyteries. 
The  Cliurch  has  three  schools  located  at  Bowling  Green,  Kentucky, 
Huntsville,  Alabama,  and  Newbern,  Tennessee.  The  first  named  is 
the  principal  school  of  the  three,  and  connected  with  it  is  a  Bible  Depart- 
ment where  the  young  men  are  receiving  some  degree  of  training  for 
the  ministry.  The  work  of  this  denomination  of  colored  people  appears 
to  be  moving  forward  with  reasonably  good  success,  and  they  are  hope- 
ful of  being  able  to  fill  a  worthy  mission  in  behalf  of  their  race.  They 
deserve  the  cordial  sympathy  and  assistance  of  all  white  Presbyterians. 
Aside  from  this  work  and  from  the  simple  duty  of  acting  as  a  "holding 
corporation,"  no  business  has  come  before  the  Board  during  the  year. 

The  Recording  Secretary  of  the  Board,  Hon.  M.  A.  Montgomery 
of  Nashville,  died  during  the  year,  much  regretted  by  all  of  his  asso- 
ciates. Rev.  Dr.  W.  T.  Rodgers  of  Nashville,  was  elected  to  fill  the 
vacancy  occasioned  by  the  death  of  Brother  Montgomery.  Rev. 
Dr.  R.  M.  Tinnon  has  removed  to  Kansas,  and  the  vacancy  occasioned 
by  his  resignation  was  filled  by  the  election  of  Rev.  G.  W.  Shelton. 
The  terms  of  the  following  members  expire  at  this  date:  Dr.  Edgar  A. 
Elmore,  Rev.  J.  R.  Henry  and  Dr.  W.  P.  Bone. 
Respectfully  submitted, 

W,  H.  Halbert, 

W.  J.  Darby,  President.

The  third  recommendation  of  the  Standing  Committee  of  the 
Board  of  Education  of  the  Assembly  of  1908,  as  passed  by  that  body, 
is  as  follows : 

"That  in  view  of  the  importance  of  the  work  among  our  foreign- 
speaking  or  exceptional  populations,  the  matter  of  training  ministerial 
and  lay  workers  for  these  peoples  be  referred  to  the  Board,  with  instruc- 
tions to  survey  the  whole  field,  and  to  outline,  if  possible,  some  policy 
and  report  to  the  next  General  Assembly. " 

In  accordance  therewith  the  Board  of  Education,  through  a  Special 
Committee  consisting  of  the  Rev.  William  H.  Oxtoby,  D.D.,  George 
W.  Bailey,  M.D.,  and  S.  Spencer  Chapman,  Esq.,  called  a  conference 
of  certain  leading  representatives  of  work  among  foreign-speaking 
peoples,  which  was  held  in  the  Board  roonxs,  Philadelphia,  December  1, 
1908,  the  following  being  among  those  present:  B.  P.  Fullerton,  D.D., 
St.  Louis;  Wilham  H.  Roberts,  D.D..  Wilham  P.  Fulton,  D.D.,  Phila-

ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD  OF  EDUCATION- 


White,  New  York;  William  McKibben,  D.D.,  Cincinnati;  Prof. 
E.  A.  Steiner,  Grinnell  College,  Iowa;  Samuel  McLanahan,  D.D., 
Lawrenceville,  N.  J.;  Rev.  Ferdinand  Von  Kriig,  Kingston,  Pa.; 
Rev.  S.  H.  Lee,  Springfield,  Mass. 

In  addition  to  the  valuable  information  gained  through  this  con- 
ference, extensive  correspondence  was  entered  into,  and  numerous 
interviews  held,  with  Home  Mission  and  City  Extension  Boards,  and 
Committees  of  several  denominations.  The  best  authorities  have  been 
consulted  for  statistics,  and  a  sincere  effort  made  to  prepare  a  report, 
of  more  than  ordinary  importance,  to  the  Assembly.  But  the  field  is 
so  vast,  and  the  forces  so  scattered  and  inadequate,  that  the  Board 
regards  its  report  as  a  mere  tentative  approach  to  a  subject  of  gravest 
importance  to  every  American  patriot  and  every  lover  of  the  work  of 
Christ. 

The  peaceful  invasion  of  a  country  by  aliens  to  the  number  of 
25,000,000  in  eighty-nine  years,  one-half  of  whom  have  arrived  since 
the  year  1880,  is  an  occurrence  without  historic  parallel.  Its  signifi- 
cance as  yet  fails  of  adequate  appreciation.  Prof.  Steiner  calls  it 
"the  greatest  phenomenon  of  history"  and  says  that  "future  genera- 
tions, wondering  at  the  process,  will  say  a  new  and  gigantic  race  was 
being  born  between  the  Atlantic  and  the  Pacific ;  a  race  born  to  build 
or  destroy,  to  cry  to  the  world  'ground  arms, '  or  to  cast  it  into  the  hell 
of  war;  a  race  in  which  are  welded  all  kindreds  of  the  people  of  the 
earth,  or  a  race  which  will  destroy  itself  by  mutual  hate." 

The  effects  of  this  invasion  upon  American  ideals  is  a  matter  of 
deepest  concern  on  the  part  of  earnest  students  of  the  progress  of  civili- 
zation. America  has  become  the  melting-pot  of  the  world.  Whether 
she  be  able  to  fuse  the  diverse  elements  of  these  many  races,  will  depend 
upon  the  vitality  of  her  religioiLS  life.  Only  a  minority  of  our  alien 
population  is  Americanized.  They  cannot  be  Americanized  except 
they  be  Christianized.  The  final  problem  of  the  immigrant  is,  after 
all,  the  religious  problem.  To  be  of  one  speech  is  inevitable;  to  be  of 
one  blood  desirable;  but  to  be  of  one  faith  is  indispensable  to  the 
permanence  of  our  free  institutions,  and  the  estabhshing  of  the  King- 
dom of  God  on  earth.  Education,  social  reform,  economic  adjustment 
are  great  but  partial  factors  in  the  process  of  assimilation.  Any 
measures  that  overlook  the  bridging  of  the  chasm  between  man's 
temporal  and  spiritual  needs  will  be  found  wanting. 

The  Churches  of  Christ  in  America  have  scarcely  begun  to  recog- 
nize the  magnitude  of  the  task  before  them.     Its  unparalleled  com- 


ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD  OF  EDUCATION.         25 

plexity  they  appreciate  still  less.  And  only  in  a  faint-hearted  and 
desultory  way  have  the}^  addressed  themsch'es  to  the  task  at  all.  But 
they  must  now  face  it  with  serious  determination.  Their  loyalt}', 
devotion,  and  zeal  are  challenged.  Their  accomplishment  of  it  will 
mean  not  only  the  triumph  of  Christianity  at  home,' but  the  gaining 
of  a  position  of  vantage  for  the  evangelization  of  the  world.  "Lift 
up  your  eyes  and  look  on  the  fields,  for  they  are  white  already  to  har- 
vest," is  a  divine  command  as  thrilling  and  timely  for  our  immigration 
problem  as  for  any  former  epoch  in  the  history  of  missions. 

THE    FIELD. 

The  difficulty  of  securing  accurate  statistics  is  notorious  and 
baffling.  Not  until  very  recent  years  has  there  been  any  strict  classifi- 
cation of  immigrants  by  the  Government,  the  term  "immigrant"  not 
being  clearly  defined  until  January  1,  1906.*  The  net  addition  to  our 
population  through  emigration  has  not  been  more  than  two-thirds  of 
the  reported  immigration. 

It  is  safe  to  say,  however,  that  more  immigrants  have  landed 
upon  our  shores  since  1850  than  our  own  population  numbered  in  the 
year  1820,  in  round  numbers,  25,000,000  people.  Since  1880,  over 
16,500,000  have  landed,  the  height  of  the  present  tidal  wave  of  immi- 
gration being  in  1907,  when  we  received  1,285,349.  The  actual  net  in- 
crease in  immigration  between  1898  and  1905  has  been  about  3,750,000. 
In  1900,  the  population  of  the  country  was  76,303,387.  Of  this  number 
10,460,085  were  foreign-born,  13.7%.  And  in  this  same  year  the  number 
born  of  foreign  parents  was  15,687,322  or  20.6%.  During  this  time 
the  population  born  of  native  parents  increased  18.9%;  but  the  popu- 
lation born  of  foreign  parents  increased  36.9%.  A  careful  analysis  of 
the  census  figures  will  bear  out  the  statement  of  the  Census  report,  that 
the  "native  white  element  of  foreign  parentage  has  increased  during 
the  past  ten  years  relatively  twice  as  fast  as  the  native  whites  of  native 
parentage."  That  is,  the  foreign  stocks  in  America  are  much  more 
prolific  than  the  native  stock.  This  populating  power  of  the  foreign 
stock  is  worthy  of  careful  consideration. 

According  to  careful  estimates,  based  on  the  average  yearly  immi- 
gration for  the  past  three  j'ears,  there  are  to-daj'  (May,  1909)  9,261,- 
588  of  foreign-born  people  in  the  United  States,  and  27,234,579  of 

*  The  Bureau  of  Immigration  defines  immigrants  as  "arriving  aliens  whose  last  perma- 
nent residence  was  in  countries  other  than  the  United  States,  British  North  America  or 
Mexico,  and  who  intend  to  reside  in  the  L'nited  States." 


26        ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD  OF  EDUCATION. 

foreign  parentage.  Counting  both  foreign-born  and  of  foreign  parent- 
age, there  are  in  this  country  approximately  12,000,000  Germans, 
3,000,000  Scandinavians,  2,000,000  ItaUans,  300,000  Hungarians,  and 
among  the  Slavic  group  1,000,000  Poles,  500,000  Bohemians,  500,000 
Russian  Jews,  400,000  Slovaks,  300,000  Ruthenians,  200,000  Lithua- 
nians, 200,000  Croatians  and  Slovenians.  Besides  these,  we  have 
thousands  of  Spanish,  Portuguese,  Bulgarians,  Servians,  Dalmatians, 
Bosnians  and  Montenegrins,  besides  natives  of  the  Levant,  such  as 
Turks,  Syrians,  Armenians  and  Greeks.  Chinese,  Japanese,  and  Mex- 
icans bring  up  the  rear  of  the  long  procession  of  home-seekers  and  for- 
tune-seekers from  foreign  climes. 

The  first  fact  to  be  recognized  is  that  this  is  a  problem,  if  not  the 
problem  of  the  city.  If  the  foreigner  distributed  himself  evenly  over  our 
country,  assimilation  would  be  greatly  simplified,  but  he  insists  upon 
crowding  into  the  cities.  The  marvelous  growth  of  the  city,  within 
the  past  thirty  years,  is,  to  a  large  extent,  the  result  of  immigration. 
In  1870  only  fourteen  cities  had  a  population  of  100,000  people;  but 
in  1900  such  cities  nmnbered  thirty-eight.  In  1880  we  had  but  one 
city  ha\ang  1,000,000  population;  in  1900  there  were  three.  The 
foreign-born  population  in  the  country  was  13.5%  in  1900,  but  the 
population  of  the  cities  was  26%  foreign-born.  In  Boston,  72%  of 
the  population  are  either  foreign-born  or  of  foreign  parentage;  Fall 
River,  Mass.,  86%;  New  York  City,  74%;  Chicago,  77%;  Phila- 
delphia, 54%;  Duluth,  Minn.,  79%;  San  Francisco,  75%,  Immi- 
grants tend  to  reverse  their  old  country  habits  of  rural  life,  exchanging 
agricultural  for  industrial  conditions.  The  proportion  of  foreign-born 
immigrants  classed  according  to  country,  and  found  in  160  of  oui 
principal  cities,  is  as  follows:  Italians,  62%;  Germans,  50%;  Polish, 
62%;  Russians,  75%  (Census  of  1900). 

One  out  of  every  four  persons  on  Manhattan  Island  is  a  Jew, 
Ninety  per  cent,  of  the  students  of  the  College  of  the  City  of  New  York 
are  of  the  same  race. 

Another  fact  to  be  taken  into  consideration  is  the  decrease  of 
immigration  from  Great  Britain  and  the  Protestant  countries  of  north- 
ern Europe,  and  the  increase  of  immigration  from  southern  and  south- 
eastern Europe,  where  religion,  language,  laws,  customs,  and  tempera- 
ment are  at  the  farthest  remove  from  American  faith  and  conduct. 
Southeastern  Europe  sends  three  times  as  many  inhabitants  as  north- 
western Europe  to  the  foreign  quarter  of  Baltimore,  nineteen  times  as 
many  to  the  heart  of  New  York,  twenty  times  as  many  to  Chicago,  and

seventy-one  times  as  many  to  Philadelphia.  The  illiteracy  of  immi- 
grants from  northwestern  Europe  in  the  so-called  slums  of  great  cities 
is  25.5%;  from  southeastern  Europe  is  54.5%,  according  to  the  author 
of  "Immigration  and  its  Effect  upon  the  United  States." 

Dr.  Josiah  Strong,  in  his  ''  Challenge  of  the  Cit}^,"  is  responsible 
for  the  following  statements :  "The  proportion  of  our  foreign-born  popu- 
lation (12.9%)  is  nearly  three  times  as  large  as  among  the  native 
whites  (4.6%)." 

"  The  tendency  to  pauperism  is  nearly  three  times  as  strong  in 
the  foreign  element  as  in  the  native." 

"  Immigrants  are  50%  more  lawless  than  the  native  whites  born 
of  native  parents ;  native-born  sons  of  immigrants  are  twice  as  law- 
less as  their  fathers,  and  three  times  as  lawless  as  the  whites  of  native 
stock.     Among  juvenile  offenders  the  disproportion  is  still  stronger." 

The  immigration  problem  is  most  acute  in  the  North  Atlantic 
States,  i.e.,  New  England,  New  York,  New  Jersey  and  Pennsylvania, 
and  the  North  Central  States,  i.e.,  Ohio  to  Dakota  and  Kansas, 
including  Missouri.  Of  the  10,356,000  foreign-born  in  the  United 
States  in  1900,  45.9%  are  found  in  the  North  Atlantic  Division,  40.1% 
in  the  North  Central  Division  and  8.1%  in  the  Western  Division. 
The  North  Atlantic  Division  contains  over  59%  of  all  the  Bohemians, 
Hungarians,  Italians,  Slavs  and  Russians  found  in  the  United  States. 
New  York  is  the  most  foreign  State  in  the  Union;  Pennsylvania  stands 
second,  Ilhnois  third,  ^lassachusetts  fourth.  The  five  New  England 
cities  of  Fall  River  (86.1%),  Holyoke  (85.4%),  Lawrence  (83.1%), 
Lowell  (77.9%),  and  Woonsocket  (83.5%)  have  a  higher  percentage 
of  foreign  population  than  New  York  (74%),  Chicago  (77.4%),  or  San 
Francisco  (75.2%). 

Local  congestion  of  population  is  rapidly  increasing  among  cer- 
tain nationalities.  In  the  North  Atlantic  Division  this  increase  be- 
tween 1890  and  1900  among  the  Hungarians  was  73%;  Itahans,  77%; 
Pohsh,  59%,  and  Russians,  77%.  Our  North  Atlantic  States  receive 
approximately  three-fourths  of  all  the  increase  of  population  among  the 
immigrants  of  southern  and  southwestern  Europe.  Nineteen  per  cent, 
of  Poles  are  in  Pennsylvania,  and  18%  in  New  York;  37%  of  Italians 
are  in  New  York,  and  13%  in  Pennsylvania;  39%  of  Russians  are  in 
New  York,  and  12%  in  Pennsylvania. 
To  sum  up: 

(1)  The  field  presents  entirely  novel  aspects,  the  New  Immigrant 
being  a  distinct  product  of  recent  yeai-s,  owing  to  the  shifting  of  immi- 


28        ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD  OF  EDUCATION. 

gration  from  northern  to  southern  Em'ope  as  the  result  of  industrial 
conditions. 

(2)  Immigration  is  a  problem  of  our  great  cities,  notably  those 
of  the  Atlantic  seaboard;  the  local  congestion  of  foreigners  in  our  great 
cities  increasing  much  faster  than  the  native  population. 

(3)  Poverty,  illiteracy  and  crime  are  greater  among  the  foreign 
than  the  native  stock,  presenting  a  singularly  sinister  aspect  to  the 
entire  situation. 

POINTS    OF   CONTACT. 

It  is  absolutely  necessary  for  the  Protestant  Churches  of  America 
to  arrive  at  a  common  understanding  as  to  the  several  nationalities 
for  whose  evangelization  they  are.  peculiarly  responsible.  Certain 
denominatioixs  are  particularly  well  qualified  to  appeal  to  certain 
nationalities,  and  also  to  those  coming  from  sections  of  Europe  where 
these  denominations  are  at  work.  Little  is  being  done  to-day  looking 
toward  comity  in  this  work.  The  Rev.  Ferdinand  Von  Krug,  of  the 
Lackawanna  Presbytery,  says:  "One  great  trouble  is,  that  in  the 
smaller  towns  all  the  denominations  want  to  work  in  the  same  spot. 
Some  sort  of  an  understanding  should  be  reached  to  prevent  overlap- 
ping. We  Presbyterians  should  not  think  that  we  can  do  all  the  work, 
and  we  ought  not  to  interfere  with  other  denominations  if  they  are 
doing  the  work." 

We  RECOMMEND  THAT  THE  ASSEMBLY  CALL  THE  ATTENTION  OF 

THE  Federal  Council  of  the  Churches  of  Christ  in  America  to 
the  great  desirability  of  organizing  an  interdenominational 
Bureau  of  Immigration,  for  the  purpose  of  unifying  the  work 
in  this  country  and  entering  into  helpful  relations  with 
European  centres  of  immigration. 

A  special  study  should  be  made  of  the  Protestant  centres  of 
Europe,  and  vital  communication  established  between  the  leading 
Protestant  forces  of  the  Continent  and  America.  Official  deputations 
from  our  churches  should  visit  Germany,  Bohemia,  Poland,  Hungary, 
and  selected  portions  of  Russia,  the  Balkan  provinces  and  Italy,  where 
the  evangelical  movement  is  flourishing.  This  is  one  of  the  best 
methods  of  discovering  where  the  most  approachable  immigrants  are 
located  in  this  land,  and  also  those  influences  by  which  they  can  be 
reached.  The  Mission  School  at  Kattowitz  in  Protestant  Poland, 
Pastor  Martin  Urban,  President,  is  a  typical  point  of  contact.  Others 
are  found  in  the  Slavic  districts  of  Hungary,  and  in  Bohemia,  where

the  Congregational  Church  has  successful  missions.  The  Reformed 
Church  of  Hungary  is  sending  us  thousands  of  Calvinistic  adherents 
yearly,  as  is  also  the  Waldensian  Church  of  Italy.  The  German  popu- 
lation of  Poland,  and  the  Protestant  revival  centres  of  Bohemia,  are 
rich  in  material  for  this  investigation.  The  State  Young  Men's  Chris- 
tian Association  of  Pennsylvania,  under  the  guidance  of  Prof.  Steiner 
sent  over  six  college  students  last  summer,  for  the  purpose  of  studyino- 
the  problem  on  the  home  field,  thus  indicating  a  valuable  method  of 
approach. 

The  reacting  effect  of  immigration  is  a  feature  of  great  import- 
ance, for  the  return  of  thousands  to  their  native  land,  after  imbibing 
the  American  spirit  and  the  Christian  faith,  produces  far-reachino- 
effects.  Every  returning  immigrant  is  a  missionary  to  his  native  land, 
Robert  Watchorn,  the  best  Commissioner  of  Immigration  the  United 
States  ever  had,  has  said:  "It  is  from  this  land,  and  from  her  insti- 
tutions, that  there  will  go  out  a  great  light  that  will  ultimately  brighten 
the  whole  earth,  not  only  industrially  and  commercially,  but  spirit- 
ually. The  United  States  is  the  world's  exemplar,  and  by  it  the  world 
must  ultimately  be  led  to  a  higher  plane  of  existence. " 

Although  80%  of  our  immigration  is  made  up  of  Roman  Catholics 
Greek  Catholics,  Greek  Orthodox,  and  Jews,  our  mission  is  not  alone 
to  the  remaining  20%  of  Protestants,  for  in  this  atmosphere  of  liberty 
the  immigrant  is  peculiarly  open  to  the  pure  Gospel,  the  men  freeing 
themselves  more  readily  from  priestcraft  than  the  women.  "I 
beheve,"  says  Prof.  Steiner,  "that  despite  the  crude  state  in  whicJi  the 
present  immigrant  comes,  he  is  ready  for  the  best  the  Church  can  give 
to  him."  "I  have  found  Jews  every\\^here  who  were  Christian  in 
spirit.  The  Jew  is  suspicious  of  missions  and  missionaries,  but  he 
responds  quickly  to  the  notes  of  true  religion,  whenever  they  strike 
his  heart." 

THE   WORK   OF   THE    PROTESTANT   DENOMINATIONS. 

Methodist  Episcopal  Church. — The  German  Methodists  have  ten 
Conferences,  900  churches,  757  ministers  and  71,000  members  and 
probationers.  ItaHan  Methodist  church  membere  number  2  400* 
Japanese,  2,600;  Spanish,  8,100;  Bohemians  and  Hungarians,  650, 
There  are  also  several  hundred  communicants  among  the  Chinese 
Portuguese  and  Finnish.  Work  is  being  pushed  by  the  Methodists  in 
the  coke  regions  of  western  Pennsylvania,  where  the  majority  of  the 
Slavic  races  found  in  Pennsvlvania  are  located. 


30  ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD  OF  EDUCATION. 

The  Swedish  Methodists  have  195  ministers,  19,000  members  and 
probationers,  and  229  churches.  The  Swedish  Methodist  City  Mission 
in  Chicago  is  doing  an  important  work. 

The  work  of  the  Methodists  for  immigrants  landing  at  New  York 
is  worthy  of  highest  praise.  A  missionary  is  stationed  at  Ellis  Island 
in  practical  ministry  for  the  sick,  children,  and  strangers.  Swedes  and 
Norwegians  have  Methodist  churches  in  New  York  City.  There  are 
also  five  Italian  Methodist  missions  and  churches  from  the  Battery  to 
the  Bronx,  besides  one  Chinese,  one  Japanese,  and  one  Hebrew  mission 
in  New  York  City. 

Baptist  Church.- — The  Swedish  Baptists  in  this  country  number 
about  25,000,  with  118  missionary  pastors.  Their  churches  are  found 
in  twenty-ine  States,  nearly  one-half  of  them  beinng  found  in  Minne- 
sota and  Illinois.  The  Danish  and  Norwegian  Baptists  number 
about  6,000.  Among  the  Italians,  the  Baptists  have  seventeen  mis- 
sionary pastors  occupying  thirty  stations  in  six  States.  In  Phila- 
delphia, there  is  a  Baptist  Settlement  House  in  the  Italian  quarter. 
Successful  work  is  being  done  in  New  Haven,  Conn.,  Providence,  R.  I., 
and  Brooklyn.  The  First  Italian  Baptist  Church  of  New  York  City 
is  one  of  the  most  important  organizations  of  its  kind  in  the  country. 

Among  the  Germans,  the  Baptists  have  366  churches,  with  26,000 
church  members.  A  Bohemian  mission  was  organized  in  Chicago,  in 
1887,  and  is  now  a  strong  church.  Work  is  also  being  conducted  among 
the  Poles  and  Bohemians  in  Detroit,  the  Hungarians  in  Cleveland,  and 
the  Slavs  in  Scranton  and  Pittsburg.  There  are  also  Polish  Baptist 
missions  in  Buffalo,  Hartford,  Conn.,  and  Chicopee,  Mass.  The 
largest  Pohsh  Baptist  church  in  the  United  States  is  in  Wisconsin. 
The  first  Slovak  Baptist  church  in  America  is  at  Creighton,  Pa.  At 
Gladstone,  Mich.,  the  Finnish  Baptists  are  strong.  Churches  among 
these  people  are  springing  up  in  Michigan,  Minnesota,  and  States 
farther  west. 

The  Congregational  Church. — The  Congregational  Year  Book  for 
1908  reports  the  following  churches  for  people  of  foreign  speech: 
Bohemian,  3;  Chinese,  8;  Danish,  4;  Finnish,  5;  French,  110;  German, 
120;  Italian,  7;  Japanese,  19;  Portuguese,  7;  Slavonic,  8;  Swedish,  78; 
Scandinavian,  115;  Welsh,  50.  They  conduct  Sla\dc  missions  in  Cleve- 
land, St.  Louis,  and  a  few  points  in  Iowa,  Nebraska  and  elsewhere;  also 
Slovak  missions  in  and  around  Pittsburg,  and  Polish  missions  in  Toledo, 
O.,  Bay  City,  Mich.,  and  in  New  England.  There  are  Congregational 
Polish  churches  also  in  Detroit  and  Cleveland.     The  Congregational 


ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD  OF  EDUCATION.         31 

Home  Missionary  Society  had,  in  1905,  236  missionaries  speaking  thir- 
teen different  dialects. 

The  Presbyterian  Church. — Comprehensive  information  is  particu- 
larly difficult  to  secure,  owing  to  the  prosecution  of  work  for  foreigners 
by  the  Presbyteries,  whose  reports  are  not  printed,  scanty  information 
only  being  found  in  Synodical  and  Assembly  reports.  The  most 
important  work  is  being  done  in  the  Synods  of  New  York,  New  Jersey, 
and  Pennsylvania. 

In  New  York  City  there  are,  under  the  care  of  New  York  Presby- 
tery, thirteen  churches  among  foreign-speaking  people — four  Italian, 
three  German,  three  Hungarian,  one  Ruthenian,  one  French  and  one 
Bohemian.  Work  is  also  being  conducted  for  Chinese  at  six  different 
points. 

An  interesting  work  among  the  Ruthenians  has  been  begun  in 
New  York  City.  There  are  about  300,000  of  these  people  in  this 
country,  and  they  are  engaged  at  this  time  in  breaking  away  from  the 
Roman  Catholic  Church,  The  Constitution  of  the  Free  Ruthenian 
Church  of  America  has  incorporated  the  Westminster  Confession  of 
Faith,  and  it  may  now  be  said  that  to  the  Presbyterians,  essentially, 
has  been  committed  the  work  of  caring  for  these  interesting  and 
approachable  people. 

The  Immigration  Department  of  the  Home  Mission  Board  has 
engaged,  during  the  past  year,  in  an  exhaustive  study  of  conditions 
among  immigrants  settling  in  New  York  City.  It  proposes  to  inquire 
into  conditions  of  social  and  religious  life  in  the  lands  from  which 
immigration  proceeds,  and  proposes  to  be  a  bureau  of  publicity  con- 
cerning foreigners,  and  religious  work  in  their  behalf.  During  the  year 
1908,  the  Board  of  Home  Missions  expended  nearly  $30,000  on  this 
department,  including  $9,800  spent  under  the  supervision  of  the 
Woman's  Board,  which  proposes,  beginning  with  April,  1909,  to  appro- 
priate 5%  of  all  its  receipts  from  women's  auxiliary  societies  for  work 
among  foreign-speaking  people,  this  amount  to  be  annuallyincreased, 
according  to  the  demands  of  the  work. 

Outside  of  New  York  City,  it  is  impossible  to  secure  full  and 
accurate  information.  The  Home  Mission  Board,  in  1907-08,  made 
forty  grants  to  work  among  foreigners  in  the  Synods  of  New  York, 
Kansas,  Minnesota,  North  Dakota,  Texas,  Baltimore,  Ohio,  Missouri, 
South  Dakota,  Oregon,  and  California.  Work  of  special  importance 
is  being  conducted  among  the  Hungarians  at  Peekskill,  Yonkers, 
Thompson's  Cove,  Philadelphia  and  Columbus;  among  the  Itahans  in 


32  ANNUAL    REPORT    OF    THE    BOARD    OF    EDUCATION. 

Detroit  and  Calumet,  Mich.,  Chicago,  Philadelphia,  Germantown, 
Chester,  and  McKeesport.  In  Philadelphia,  the  First  Italian  Church 
has  a  membership  of  423  and  a  fine  new  church,  with  a  new  mission 
in  West  Philadelphia,  about  to  build  a  commodious  chapel.  Lehigh 
Presbytery,  Pa.,  has  two  Italian  churches  at  Hazleton  and  Rosetto, 
besides  three  missions.  Work  is  being  conducted  among  the  Magyars 
in  the  Presbyteries  of  Buffalo,  N.  Y.,  Lehigh,  Kittanning  and  Redstone, 
Pa.,  and  Newton,  N.  J.  There  are  two  Slavic  churches  in  Pittsburg, 
one  in  Chicago,  and  one  in  Braddock. 

The  strongest  work  being  done  outside  of  New  York  City  is  in 
Pittsburgh  Presbytery.  Within  its  bounds  there  are  employed  the 
following  ordained  men:  four  Bohemians,  one  Ruthenian,  two  French, 
one  Italian  and  twelve  specially  trained  graduates.  The  work  is  being 
conducted  at  the  following  points :  among  the  French  at  Charleroi  and 
Tarentum;  the  Italians  at  East  Liberty  and  Boundary  Street  Mission, 
Pittsburgh,  and  at  Clairton;  among  the  Magyars  at  Coraopolis,  the 
Ruthenians  in  Pittsburgh  (South  Side) ;  among  the  Slavs  at  McKee's 
Rocks,  West  Park,  Coraopolis,  Leetsdale,  Ambridge,  Troy  Hill  and 
Homestead,  and  Missions  are  being  conducted  at  twelve  other  points. 
Lackawanna  Presbytery  employs  four  ordained  missionaries  and  four- 
teen speakers,  holding  services  in  five  chapels,  the  Presbj-terj^  spend- 
ing about  $16,000  a  year  upon  the  work.  The  great  Home  Mission 
problem  of  Pennsylvania  is  the  evangelization  of  her  foreigners,  over 
200,000  coming  from  Europe  every  year. 

Successful  work  is  being  prosecuted  among  the  Ruthenians  in 
Pennsylvania  and  New  Jersey,  as  well  as  New  York.  Several  hundred 
Ruthenians  of  Newark  have  renounced  Catholicism  and  have  asked  to 
be  received  into  communion  with  the  Presbyterian  Church.  The 
Presbyterian  Church  of  Canada  has  established  a  number  of  churches 
and  has  a  Ruthenian  training  class  at  Manitoba  College. 

There  are  about  150  German  Presbyterian  churches  and  missions 
in  the  United  States,  with  14,674  members  and  16,699  Sunday-school 
members.  Two  German  Theological  Seminaries  are  being  conducted 
at  Bloomfield,  N.  J.,  and  Dubuque,  Iowa.  With  the  exception  of  the 
Baptists  and  Methodists,  the  Presbyterians  have  done  better  Protestant 
work  among  the  Germans  than  any  other  denomination.  There 
appears  to  be  a  great  opportunity  for  development  at  the  present  time. 
They  publish  a  weekly  Presbyterian  paper  and  their  own  Sunday- 
school  lessons.  It  was  supposed  that  as  the  Germans  were  assimilated 
into  the  life  of  our  country  religious  work  in  the  German  language 


ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD  OF  EDUCATION.        33 

would  cease.  The  years  have  passed,  during  which  this  prophecy- 
has  not  been  fulfilled.  The  work,  instead  of  diminishing,  has  con- 
stantly grown.  There  are  now  three  flourishing  German  Presbyteries 
in  Iowa.  And  yet,  except  in  isolated  communities,  the  German 
churches  are  as  thoroughly  American  as  any  others.  In  New  Jersey 
there  are  twenty  German  Presbyterian  churches. 

Colporteurs  are  at  work  in  New  Jersey,  among  the  Italians  and 
Hungarians,  under  the  care  of  the  Board  of  Publication  and  Sabbath- 
school  Work.  Encouraging  reports  also  come  from  the  Board's  Bohe- 
mian missionary  in  Texas.  Three  foreign  papers  are  published  by  the 
Board,  including  a  w-eekly  for  Bohemians. 

WorTv  for  Bohemians  is  being  conducted  in  Cohuiibus,  Ohio; 
Omaha,  Neb. ;  Austin  and  Houston,  Texas ;  portions  of  North  and  South 
Dakota,  and  in  many  sections  of  Iowa,  where  a  Bohemian  missionary 
has  lately  been  commissioned,  and  has  already  opened  up  four  preach- 
ing stations.  In  the  Presbytery  of  Chicago,  there  are  two  Bohemian 
churches. 

There  are  missions  also  for  the  Armenians  at  West  Hoboken  and 
Paterson,  and  for  the  Syrians  at  Brooklyn,  Summit,  West  Hoboken, 
Wheeling,  W.  Va.,  and  Chicago.  The  Presbyterians  of  the  latter  city 
have  organized  Persian,  Jewish,  and  Scandinavian  missions,  having  a 
church  membership  of  630.  A  Bohemian  missionary  is  stationed  at 
^Madison  and  Granite  City,  111.  Hungarian  missions  have  been  opened 
at  St.  Louis  and  East  St.  Louis.  The  First  Hungarian  Church  of 
Philadelphia  has  just  been  organized  with  132  members. 

The  foregoing  partial  account  of  Presbyterian  work  for  foreigners 
emphasizes  the  remark  of  one  of  our  own  workers:  "One  trouble  is, 
we  are  working  in  the  dark.  We  do  not  really  know  the  people  among 
us.  We  say,  'Those  awful  foreigners,'  making  little  effort  to  know 
from  which  part  of  Europe  or  the  East  they  come.  We  can  never  work 
the  field  to  the  best  advantage  until  we  have  more  light.  We  need 
big-hearted  experts  who  will  take  up  this  problem  in  a  great  and 
sympathetic  Avay." 

Other  denominations,  notably  the  Episcopalians,  are  doing  excel- 
lent work  among  foreigners,  but  information  is  inaccessible,  owing  to 
the  individual  character  of  the  enterprises.  It  is  to  be  hoped  that  a 
central  bureau  of  publicity  and  co-operation  in  service  will  soon  be 
established  by  the  allied  Protestant  Churches. 


34  ANNUAL   REPORT   OF   THE   BOARD   OF   EDUCATION. 

METHODS   OF   SECURING   WORKERS. 

1.  The  Importation  of  Religious  Workers. — Under  stress  of  need  for 
men,  the  experiment  has  been  tried  of  bringing  ministers  over  from 
Europe,  and  placing  them  at  work  among  the  people  of  their  own 
nationality  in  this  country.  The  result  has  not  been  satisfactory. 
They  have  not  come  to  this  country  because  of  any  particular  sym- 
pathy for  American  thought  and  life.  Their  social  customs  are  often 
at  variance  with  ours,  especially  in  the  matter  of  the  use  of  alcohohc 
beverages.  A  very  large  percentage  of  imported  ministers  have  turned 
out  to  be  failures,  or  worse.  The  ministers  in  demand  in  their  own 
land  are  the  only  ones  fit  for  importation,  and  they  cannot  be  secured 
in  sufficient  numbers.  One  of  our  experienced  workers  when  abroad 
asked  the  faculty  of  the  Budapesth  Calvin  Institute  whether  they 
could  not  recommend  a  man  for  work  in  America.  Their  answer 
was,  "Yes,  you  can  have  such  and  such  a  man,  because  he  is  no  good 
here."  If,  under  pressure  of  need  for  more  American-born  workers 
than  our  schools  can  turn  out,  we  can  import  selected  young  men, 
and  place  them  in  training  schools  for  several  years,  so  that  they  may 
become  thoroughly  Americanized,  without  losing  their  own  tongue 
and  their  affection  for  their  own  people,  the  importation  project  is 
feasible  to  a  limited  extent, 

2.  Training  of  American  Workers. — The  conviction  is  being  forced 
upon  those  experienced  in  this  work,  that  Americans  must  be  trained 
to  supervise  and  lead  in  the  task  of  Christianizing  and  Americanizing 
the  foreigner.  The  following  considerations  point  to  this  conclusion: 
First,  immigration  has  barely  begun.  Europe  wiU  be  sending 
millions  more  before  economic  and  pohtical  conditions  are  so  adjusted 
as  to  make  America  no  longer  a  desirable  haven.  It  will  be  impossible 
to  train  enough  foreigners  of  the  right  kind,  with  a  continued  and 
increasing  inflow. 

Second,  the  foreigner  will  follow  the  leadership  of  a  native  Ameri- 
can who  knows  his  language,  and  sympatliizes  with  his  aspirations, 
far  more  readily  than  he  will  one  of  his  own  countrymen.  The  Roman 
CathoHc  Church  is  doing  away  with  its  foreign  priests  as  rapidly  as 
possible.  The  monasteries  of  Europe  are  full  of  American  priests 
training  for  work  among  foreign-speaking  Catholics  in  this  country. 
Third,  the  American  is  the  natural  leader  in  solving  American 
problems.  He  understands  the  needs  of  the  foreigners  and  can  be 
trained  to  understand  the  foreigner's  viewpoint.  The  great  work  of 
Dr.  Schauffler  is  a  case  in  point.     The  churches  should  have  in  training 


ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD  OF  EDUCATION.        35 

hundreds  of  our  brightest  and  most  consecrated  youth,  as  carefully 
educated  for  this  task  as  for  work  in  foreign  lands.  Great  opportuni- 
ties, both  here  and  abroad,  are  presented  for  the  study  of  language, 
customs,  racial  characteristics  and  religion.  Training  courses  are 
greatly  needed  whereby  such  American  youth  could  finc^  an  outlet  for 
their  service  as  foreign  missionaries  upon  the  home  field. 

The  author  of  "The  Trail  of  the  Immigrant"  said  at  our  Conference : 
"Get  to  work  and  do  that  work  which  to  my  mind  is  fundamental — 
train  men  for  leadership  in  this  country  and  train  Americans." 

^Ir.  Stelzle  said:  "For  many  years  the  Foreign  Mission  interests 
have  been  doing  this  work  among  our  college  men  and  women,  and 
thousands  upon  thousands  of  them  have  given  themselves  to  the  work 
of  Foreign  Missions.  For  various  reasons  many  volunteers  have  not 
been  able  to  go.  It  seems  to  me  that  right  here,  in  our  own  country, 
these  volunteers  would  find  a  field  for  the  use  of  every  talent  which 
they  possess,  the  exercise  of  which  would  result  in  great  good  among 
foreign-speaking  people.  The  foreigners  here  need  their  ministry, 
and  even  though  they  purpose  going  to  the  foreign  field  eventually, 
they  might  meantime  be  at  work  among  foreign-speaking  people  in 
the  United  States.  But,  aside  from  this,  why  could  we  not  make  this 
so  big  a  thing,  and  present  it  to  our  young  people  in  our  colleges,  semi- 
naries and  churches  in  such  a  way,  that  it  will  appeal  to  them  as  a  great 
opportunity?  Our  Boards  should  map  out  a  policy  which  would 
meet  the  need  for  this  kind  of  work.  If  our  Boards  were  to  take  up 
such  a  movement  for  trained  workers,  they  would  supply  a  very  urgent 
demand." 

3.  Training  of  Foreign-speaking  Ministers. — (A)  In  Seminaries. — 
Experience  has  demonstrated  the  folly  of  ordaining  foreigners,  under 
the  pressure  of  need  for  workers,  before  they  are  fit  for  their  task. 
Trained  leaderehip  is  indispensable  to  the  life  and  growth  of  the  Church, 
and  such  training  implies,  first,  the  right  kind  of  material  to  work 
upon,  and,  second,  time  to  work  that  material  into  proper  shape. 
Churches  are  prone  to  use  poor  material,  if  they  cannot  secure  the 
proper  kind.  A  pious  Italian  fruit  peddler  was  ordained  without 
preparation  some  years  ago,  but  ecclesiastical  garments  did  not  make 
up  for  his  lamentable  deficiencies,  and  for  years  he  has  been  a  burden 
upon  his  Presbyteiy. 

The  crying  need  for  an  educated  ininistry  among  foreign  peoples 
has  constrained  a  number  of  the  denominations  to  provide  special 
departments  in  theological  seminaries,  as  follows : 


36        ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD  OF  EDUCATION. 

Methodists : 

Garrett  Biblical  Institute — Norwegian-Danish  Department. 
Congregational : 

Oberlin  Theological  Seminary — vSlavic  Department. 

Schauffler  Training  School,  Cleveland,   Ohio. 

Finnish  Theological  School,  Cambridge,  Mass. 

Chicago  Theological  Seminary — Danish,  Norwegian  and  Swedish 
Departments. 

Redfield  College,  Redfield,  S.  D. — Russian-German  Department. 
Presbyterian : 

German  Theological  School  of  Newark — German,  Italian  and 
Hungarian  Departments,  embracing  academic,  collegiate,  and 
theological  courses^^ — 58  students. 

German  Theological  Seminary,  Dubuque,  Iowa — German  and 
Bohemian  Departments,  embracing  academic,  collegiate  and 
theological  courses — German  students,   75;  Bohemians,  20. 

Western  Theological  Seminary,  Allegheny,  Pa. — Bohemian,  Hun- 
garian, and  Italian  Departments — 8  students. 

Interdenominational  Schools : 

Bible  Teachers'  Training  School,  New  York  City,  N.  Y.,  Dr.  W.  W. 
White  President,  Italian  Workers  Department — 21  students. 
Springfield,  Mass.,  Christian  Workers'  Training  School. 

The  work  done  in  these  institutions  is  characterized  by  energy, 
open-mindedness,  and  a  spirit  of  sacrifice.  ]\Iany  noble  men  and 
women  have  consecrated  themselves  to  this  task.  Work  is  handi- 
capped, first  of  all,  by  limited  funds ;  second,  by  lack  of  ability  to  secure 
first-class  teachers  in  foreign  tongues;  third,  by  inability  to  find  the 
right  kind  of  material  for  training.  Man}^  European  failures  drift 
into  these  schools,  and  drift  out  again  into  the  work,  to  vex  the  churches. 
And,  lastly,  the  field  is  so  broad,  and  the  needs  are  so  great,  there  seems 
to  be  little  time  for  deep  and  exliaustive  investigation.  The  unsatis- 
factoriness  of  the  situation  is  due  largely  to  its  experimental  character. 
There  is  a  difference  of  opinion  as  to  the  chief  qualifications  for  workers. 
Some  institutions  lay  stress  upon  a  literary  education,  others  upon  the 
practical  and  administrative  side,  and  still  others  upon  Biblical  study. 
There  is  also  a  failure  to  define  closely  between  preparation  for  minis- 
ters and  preparation  for  lay  workers.  The  tendency  on  the  part  of 
church  judicatories  to  license  and  ordain  men  seeking  short  cuts  to 
the  ministry  is  particularly    aggravated  in  the  case  of  foreigners. 


ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD  OF  EDUCATION.         37 

With  some  this  is  a  matter  of  little  concern.  Hard  and  fast  theories  of 
ministerial  education  have  no  doubt  retarded  the  Christianizing  of 
the  foreigner.  The  Methodist  and  Baptist  Churches,  which  have  been 
more  elastic  in  their  educational  ideals  for  the  ministry,  and  have 
adapted  themselves  to  conditions  upon  the  field,  have  outgrown  by 
millions  the  churches  holding  more  closely  to  theological  and  literary 
demands  in  ministerial  training. 

But  out  of  divergent  theories  may  be  discerned  several  general 
principles  emerging: 

(1)  An  education  for  the  ordained  ministry  to  foreign-speaking 
peoples  on  a  par  with  that  given  to  native  Americans  is  the  ideal. 

(2)  The  theoretically  ideal  course  must  not  be  allowed  to  interfere 
with  a  more  practical  adaptation  to  the  pressing  and  immediate  needs 
for  workers. 

(3)  A  sharp  distinction  should  be  drawn  between  the  training 
of  candidates  for  the  ministry  and  the  training  of  lay  workers,  such 
distinction  to  be  observed  both  in  educational  institutions  and  church 
courts.  Half  educated  men  should  not  be  admitted  to  ordination,  but 
urged  to  remain  lay  workers  until  better  qualified. 

(4)  A  formal  literary  and  ecclesiastical  education  must  not  be 
allowed  to  do  duty  for  spirit  and  life  in  the  presentation  of  the  Gospel 
message.  The  following  qualifications,  therefore,  are  indispensable: 
(1)  training  in  the  Word  of  God;  (2)  power  in  prayer,  and  the  spirit  of 
evangelism;  (3)  ability  and  energy  in  practical  Christian  service. 

To  sum  up,  we  believe  it  to  be  essential  (1)  that  the  ministry 
should  have  the  best  possible  educational  qualifications;  (2)  that  it  is 
not  always  possible  to  secure  these,  and  therefore  adaptation  and  dis- 
crimination are  necessary,  but  (3)  while  it  is  not  wise  to  ordain  men  not 
educationally  qualified,  yet  men  filled  with  the  spirit  should  be  em- 
ployed either  as  visitors,  Bible  readers,  colporteurs  and  lay  evangelists. 

It  is  the  conviction  of  your  Committee  that  the  place  for  securing 
full  educational  qualifications  for  the  ministry  is  the  theological  semi- 
nary, and  where  such  qualifications  are  unnecessary  or  impossible, 
Bible  Training  Schools  for  lay  workers  should  be  maintained  and 
encouraged. 

THE  RELATION  OF  THE  BOARD  OF  EDUCATION  TO  THE  TASK. 

Western  Seminary  at  Allegheny  has  recently  taken  steps  looking 
toward  the  permanent  organization  of  a  training  school  for  foreign 
students.     Two  courses  are  given,  of  two  years  each,  one  to  prepare 


38        ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD  OF  EDUCATION. 

men  for  general  mission  work,  the  other  preparatory  to  the  regular 
seminary  curriculum  for  candidates  for  ordination. 

In  seeking  a  point  of  contact  with  the  work,  the  Board  has  of 
necessity  been  governed  by  the  action  of  the  General  Assembly  in 
past  years.  Its  attention  has  been  directed  to  the  report  of  the  Stand- 
ing Committee  on  Education  of  the  Assembly  of  1904,  in  which  it 
expressed  its  "sense  of  the  extreme  importance  of  seeking  out  and 
training  an  efficient  ministry  for  foreign-speaking  peoples. "  It  further 
recognized  "the  success  which  has  attended  the  methods  pursued  in 
educating  men  for  work  among  the  Germans,  this  success  suggesting 
the  method  by  which  a  similar  work  may  be  done  for  candidates  of 
other  foreign  races."  And  it  requested  the  Directors  of  the  German 
Theological  School  of  the  Northwest  and  the  German  Theological 
School  of  Newark  to  "take  into  consideration  the  possibility  and  pro- 
priety of  so  enlarging  the  scope  of  their  work  as  to  accept  additional 
foreign-speaking  candidates  other  than  Germans."  In  pursuance 
of  this  request  the  seminaries  named  proceeded  to  erect  and  offer 
courses  in  accordance  with  the  demand ;  Dubuque  adding  a  Bohemian 
department,  and  Bloomfield  departments  for  Hungarians  and  Ital- 
ians. Your  Committee  has  carefully  investigated  the  work  done  at 
both  institutions,  and  herewith  commends  and  endorses  it.  But  we 
are  convinced,  by  a  careful  study  of  the  curricula,  that  there  is  need  of 
a  common  understanding  between  seminaries  as  to  what  constitutes 
a  standard  theological  education.  We  call  the  attention  of  the  Assem- 
bly to  the  important  fact,  that  the  theological  seminaries  are  the  only 
educational  institutions  in  the  country  whose  representatives  seldom, 
if  ever,  come  together  in  conference,  and  whose  courses  are  unrelated 
to  each  other  through  any  system  of  mutual  arrangement.     And  we 

RECOMMEND  THE  ARRANGING  OF  SUCH  CONFERENCES  BErV\^EEN  ALL  OUR 
seminaries,  under  the  DIRECTION  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY. 

In  the  academic  department,  the  course  at  Bloomfield  is  stronger 
in  Latin,  Greek  and  Mathematics,  there  being  five  Latin  teachers  in 
Bloomfield  and  one  at  Dubuque,  four  Greek  teachers  at  Bloomfield 
and  one  at  Dubuque.  In  Mathematics,  Bloomfield  gives  in  the 
academy  what  Dubuque  gives  in  the  college.  On  the  other  hand, 
Dubuque  is  stronger  in  Science,  viz.,  Physiology,  Physics,  Geology  and 
Botany.  There  is  no  science  course  at  Bloomfield  in  the  academic 
years.  Bloomfield  is  stronger  in  Ancient,  Oriental,  Greek,  Roman, 
Mediaeval,  and  Modern  History,  while  Dubuque  is  stronger  in  American 
History  and  the  social  problems  of  our  times. 


ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD  OF  EDUCATION.        39 

In  the  collegiate  department,  the  literary  courses  are  stronger  at 
Bloomfield  than  Dubuque,  while  science  is  stronger  at  Dubuque  than 
at  Bloomfield.  The  seminary  courses  are  similar,  except  that  Bloom- 
field  offers  a  coui*se  in  ethics,  while  Dubuque  offei*s  courses  in  missions 
and  the  English  Bible.  To  sum  up,  Bloomfield  gives  the  more 
thorough  literary  training,  emphasizing  scholarship,  while  Dubuque  has 
the  more  practical  and  modern  course,  emphasizing  results  upon  the 
field. 

For  several  years,  under  special  authority  given  to  it  by  the 
Assembly,  the  Board  has  assisted  these  institutions  by  a  grant  of  extra 
scholarships  to  students  requiring  special  instruction  in  their  mother 
tongue.  The  extra  amount  did  not  go  to  the  student,  but  was  used  by 
the  institution  to  pay  for  extra  instruction.  In  view  of  the  special 
relations  sustained  by  this  Board  to  both  Bloomfield  and  Dubuque 
Seminaries,  and  also  in  view  of  the  fact  that  both  seminaries  have, 
during  the  past  year,  officially  requested  the  Board  to  enter  into  special 
relations  with  them,  a  definite  policy  must  now  be  formulated  by 
which  their  work  can  be  stimulated  through  a  regular  administrative 
agency  of  the  Church.  The  following  policy  is  therefore  submitted 
to  the  consideration  of  the  Assembly: 

GENERAL   POLICY  RECOMMENDED. 

I.  Training  of  Ministerial  Candidates. — ^Whereas,  The  General 
Assembly  of  1904  requested  "The  Directors  of  the  German 
Theological  School  of  the  Northwest,  and  the  German  Theo- 
logical School  of  Newark,  to  take  into  consideration  the  possi- 
bility AND  propriety  OF  SO  ENLARGING  THE  SCOPE  OF  THEIR  WORK  AS 
TO  ACCEPT  ADDITIONAL  (fOREIGN)  CANDIDATES  OTHER  THAN  GERMANS  "  ; 
AND 

Whereas,  In  obedience  to  this  request,  these  seminaries 
have  erected  and  maintained  special  departments  for  the 
training  of  italians,  bohemians  and  hungarians  in  their  native 

TONGUES,  AND  DESERVE  THE  THANKS  OF  THE  ChURCH  FOR  THEIR  PROSE- 
CUTION OF  THIS  WORK  AS  FAR  AS  FINANCIAL  SUPPORT  WOULD  PERMIT; 
AND 

Whereas,  This  work  in  these  institutions  has  been  care- 
fully INVESTIGATED  BY  THE  BOARD,  AND  FOUND  TO  BE  WORTHY  OF 
ENDORSEMENT,  * 

It    IS     RECOMMENDED     THAT     THE     FOLLOWING     RESOLUTION      BE 

adopted: 


40        ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD  OF  EDUCATION. 

Resolved,  1.  That  the  General  Assembly  recognizes  the 
German  Theological  School  of  the  Northwest,  and  the  German 
Theological  School  of  Newark,  as  especially  fitted  for  the 
work  of  training  ministerial  candidates  for  people  of  foreign 
speech. 

It  is  further  recommended  that  the  following  resolution  be 
adopted : 

Resolved,  2.  That  the  Board  of  Education  be  and  hereby  is 

DIRECTED  AND  AUTHORIZED,  IN  THE  NAME  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY, 
TO  ENTER  INTO  APPROPRIATE  SPECIAL  RELATIONS  WITH  THE  ABOVE- 
NAMED  INSTITUTIONS,   AS  HEREINAFTER  INDICATED: 

(A)  In  THE  GRANTING  OF  SPECIAL  SCHOLARSHIPS  FOR  FOREIGN- 
SPEAKING  non-German  students,  in  so  far  as  the  Board  may  deem 

IT  expedient. 

(B)  In  the  training  of  such  students,  the  said  seminaries 

ARE  directed  TO  CONFER  WITH  THE  BOARD  OF  EDUCATION  CONCERNING 
courses  of  STUDY,  AND  ALL  OTHER  MATTERS  RELATED  TO  THIS  SPECIAL 
work;  nothing,  however,  in  this  recommendation  TO  BE  CON- 
STRUED AS  AFFECTING  THE  PRESENT  RELATIONS  OF  THESE  SEMINARIES 
WITH  THEIR  JUDICATORIES. 

(C)  In  THE  MATTER  OF  CONTRIBUTIONS,  THE  BoARD  IS  REQUESTED 
TO  TENDER  ITS  SERVICES  A.S  THE  RECEIVER  AND  FORWARDER  OF  CON- 
TRIBUTIONS DESIGNATED  FOR  THESE  INSTITUTIONS;  CONTRIBUTIONS 
RECEIVED  DIRECT  BY  THE  SEMINARIES  TO  BE  REPORTED  TO  THE  BOARD, 
AND  RECORD  OF  THE  SAME  INCORPORATED  IN  THE  BoARD's  ANNUAL 
REPORT    TO    THE    ASSEMBLY. 

(D)  In  view  OF  the  request  of  the  German  Presbyterian 
Theological  Seminary  of  the  Northwest,  and  the  German 
Theological  School  of  Newark,  for  a  closer  union  bet"ut:en 
them  and  the  Board  of  Education,  it  is  recommended  that  the 
Board  act  in  an  advisory  capacity  as  far  as  may  be  mutually 
advantageous. 

II.  The  Training  of  Lay  Workers. — So  important  and  necessary 
a  task  as  this  requires  larger  consideration  than  the  limits  of  this  report 
will  permit.  It  regards  this  work  as  one  of  great  and  growing  import- 
ance. Successful  denominational  and  interdenominational  schools 
for  lay  workers  are  in  existence  in  New  York  City;  Springfield, 
Mass.;  Cleveland,  Oliio;  Chicago,  111.,  and  Minneapolis,  Minn.  The 
Presbytery  of  Pittsburg  has  recently  established  such  a  school  and 
removed   it  from   Pittsburg  to   Coraopolis.     Lane,   Bloomfield   and 


ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD  OF  EDUCATION.        41 

Princeton  Seminaries  now  offer  courees  to  lay  workei's.  An  Inter- 
Presbyterian  School  for  Christian  Workers  has  lately  been  founded  by 
five  Presbyterian  bodies  in  Philadelphia,  and  is  now  in  operation, 
offering  courses  in  deaconess  and  Sabbath-school  work.  The  Presby- 
terian Deaconess  Home  in  Baltimore  provides  a  thorough  course  of 
three  years  for  the  training  of  deaconesses. 

The  Board  of  Education  does  not  feel  warranted  in  expending 
any  of  its  funds  in  behalf  of  the  training  of  Christian  lay  workere,  unless 
specially  authorized  by  the  Assembly.  There  is  nothing  in  its  charter 
and  Constitution  which  would  prevent  its  acceptance  of  the  task,  but 
as  its  primal  work  has  up  to  this  time  been  the  raising  up  of  an  effec- 
tive Gospel  ministry,  it  enters  into  new  fields  of  Christian  education 
only  under  special  direction  of  the  Assembly.  It  feels  that  if  the  effort 
to  secure  an  effective  ministry  among  ovu'  foreign  peoples  were  com- 
mitted to  it,  according  to  the  above  policy,  it  would  have  a  large  and 
important  work  before  it.  But  it  is  ready  to  face  any  other  tasks, 
within  its  chartered  powers,  to  which  in  its  wisdom  the  Assembly 
might  direct  it. 

It  is  therefore  recommended  that  the  following  resolution  be 
adopted : 

Resolved,  1.   That  the  establishing  of  "wisely  located  and 

WELL-EQUIPPED  SCHOOLS,  FOR  THE  TRAINING  OF  LAY  WORKERS,  WHICH 
ARE  IN  ORGANIC  CONNECTION  W^TH  THE  PRESBYTERIAN  ChURCH  IN 
THE  U.  S.  A.,  BE  ENCOURAGED  AND  SUPPORTED,  AND  THEIR  NEEDS  COM- 
MENDED TO  THE  LIBERALITY  OF  CHURCHES  AND  INDIVIDUALS;  AND  THAT 
THE  ERECTION  OF  SPECIAL  DEPARTiNIENTS  FOR  LAY  WORKERS  AMONG 
FOREIGN-SPEAKING  PEOPLES  AT  THE  GERMAN  THEOLOGICAL  ScHOOL 
OF    THE    NORTHW^EST    AND     THE     GeRMAN    THEOLOGICAL    SCHOOL    OF 

Newark  be  and  hereby  is  authorized. 

It  is  further  recommended  that  the  following  resolution  be  adopted: 
Resolved,  2.  That  the  Board  of  Education  be  directed  to 
tender  its  services  to  churches  and  individuals  in  the  receiv- 
ing and  forwarding  of  designated  offerings  for  such  institu- 
tions or  departments  of  institutions  for  the  training  of  lay 
workers,  and  that  said  institutions  report  to  the  board  annu- 
ally offerings  received  direct  for  their  work,  w^hich  reports 
shall  be  incorporated  in  the  annual  report  of  the  board  of 
Education  to  the  General  Assembly.

The  Ninetieth  Annual  Report  of  the  Board  of  Education  was 
presented  to  the  General  Assembly,  in  session  at  Denver,  Colo.,  May, 
1909,  and  was  referred  to  the  Standing  Committee  on  Education. 
The  Committee  consisted  of 

Minister.'?.  ^  Elders. 

Rev.  Edgar  P.  Hill,  D.D.,  Chairman. 

William  F.  Skinner,  Henry  Van  Dyke  Reed. 

Henry  J.  Weber,  Ph.D.,  Valentine  W.  Smith,

This  Committee  subsequently  presented  their  report  to  the  General 
Assembly.  It  was  accepted  and  the  appended  resolutioiLS  unanimously 
adopted,  as  follows: 

1.  That,  in  the  case  of  young  men  ordained  to  the  Cumberland 
ministry,  prior  to  the  Union,  without  a  seminary  course,  who  mav 
be  duly  recommended  by  their  Presbyteries,  they  be  given  all  proper 
encouragement  and  assistance  to  take  such  a  course;  and  that  the 
Board  be  authorized  to  accept  them  for  aid,  regardless  of  collegiate 
preparation,  the  Board  reserving  to  itself  the  right  to  reject  such  as 
may  not,  in  its  estimation,  be  able  to  profit  thereby. 

2.  That,  in  the  case  of  Rev.  George  M.  Day,  the  holder  of  the 
Secretary's  Scholarship,  the  action  of  the  Board  in  continuing  to  Mr. 
Day  the  benefits  of  this  Scholarship,  as  an  exceptional  case,  until  the 
expiration  of  the  term  for  which  he  holds  it,  be  approved. 

3.  That  the  Board  be  permitted  to  extend  to  the  holders  of  the 
Mutchmore  and  the  Secretary's  Scholarships  the  right,  now  accorded 


78        ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD  OF  EDUCATION.  • 

to  the  holder  of  the  Newberry  Scholarship,  to  spend  a  year  of  graduate 
study  in  foreign  universities,  at  the  discretion  of  the  Board. 

4.  That  the  change  in  the  Day  of  Prayer  for  Colleges  and  Univer- 
sities to  the  Thursday  preceding  the  second  Sunday  in  February  be 
adhered  to;  and  we  recommend  the  observation  of  tliis  day  in  1910. 

5.  That,  in  dealing  with  the  problem  of  supplying  the  religious 
needs  of  the  Presbyterian  students  in  State  Universities,  which  has 
been^  committed  to  this  Board  by  the  General  Assembly,  the  work 
already  done  by  the  Board  be  approved,  including  the  holding  of  the 
pre- Assembly  Conference;  and  it  is  recommended  that  the  Board  be 
authorized  to  continue  the  same  policy ;  and,  at  the  request  of  Synodi- 
cal  Committees,  to  co-operate  in  the  raising  of  endowment  or  other 
funds  for  Presbyterian  work  at  State  educational  institutioas,-  and  to 
act  as  the  receiver,  forwarder  or  holder  of  such  funds  whenever  mutually 
agreeable. 

6.  That  the  suggestion  of  the  Board,  that  self-supporting  Synods 
shall  be  requested  to  make  their  offerings  to  the  Board  commensurate 
with  the  Board's  grants  to  their  candidates,  be  approved. 

7.  That  the  suggestion  of  the  Board,  that  the  Assembl}^  consider 
the  measures  proposed  by  Overtures  79  and  80  as  inexpedient  for  the 
present,  be  approved,  but  that  Presb^^teries  are  hereby  reminded  of 
the  necessity  of  examining  their  candidates  thoroughly  in  the  essentials 
of  Bible  truth. 

8.  That  the  negative  answer  of  the  Board  to  the  question  of  the 
General  Assembly,  in  regard  to  the  guaranty  insurance  of  cash  balances, 
be  approved. 

9.  That  the  co-operation  of  this  Board  with  the  Board  of  Missions 
for  Freedmen,  in  connection  with  the  educational  interests  of  the 
Colored  Ciunberland  Church,  be  approved  and  continued. 

10.  That  the  recommendations  of  the  Board  in  regard  to  filling 
various  vacancies  be  approved,  as  follows:

President  A.  E.  Turner. 

11.  That  the  Assembly  call  the  attention  of  the  Federal  Council 
of  the  Churches  of  Christ  in  America  to  the  great  desirability  of  organ- 
izing an  Interdenominational  Bureau  of  Immigration,  for  the  purpose 
of  unifying  the  work  in  this  country  and  entering  into  helpful  relations 
with  European  centres  of  inuiiigration. 

12.  That  the  resolutions  submitted  by  the  Board,  in  regard  to  the 
policy  of  training  "foreign-speaking  candidates  other  than  Germans," 
as  embodied  in  preamble  and  resolutions  on  pages  39  and  40  of  the 
special  Report  of  the  Board,  be  adopted,  as  follows: 

Whereas,  The  General  Assembly  of  1904  requested  "the  Direc- 
tors of  the  German  Theological  School  of  the  Northwest,  and  of  the 
German  Theological  School  of  Newark,  to  take  into  consideration  the 
possibility  and  propriety  of  so  enlarging  the  scope  of  their  work  as  to 
accept  additional  (foreign)  candidates  other  than  Germans";  and, 

Whereas,  In  obedience  to  this  request,  these  seminaries  have 
erected  and  maintained  special  departments  for  the  training  of  Italians, 
Bohemians  and  Hiuigarians  in  their  native  tongues;  and, 

Whereas,  This  work  in  these  institutions  has  been  carefully 
investigated  by  the  Board,  and  found  to  be  worthy  of  endorsement, 

It  is  recommended  that  the  following  resolutions  be  adopted : 

1.  That  the  General  Assembly  recognize  the  German  Theological 
School  of  the  Nt)rthwest  and  the  German  Theological  School  of 
Newark  as  especially  fitted  for  the  work  of  training  ministerial  can- 
didates for  people  of  foreign  speech. 

2.  That  the  Board  of  Education  be  and  hereby  is  directed  and 
authorized,  in  the  name  of  the  General  Assembly,  to  enter  into  appro- 
priate relations  with  the  above-named  institutions,  as  hereinafter 
indicated : 

(a)  In  the  granting  of  special  scholarships  for  the  above-men- 
tioned foreign-speaking  students,  in  so  far  as  the  Board  may  deem  it 
expedient. 

(b)  In  the  training  of  such  students,  the  said  seminaries  are 
directed  to  confer  with  the  Board  of  Education  concerning  courses  of 

4

study,  and  all  other  matters  related  to  this  special  work;  nothing, 
however,  in  this  recommendation  to  be  construed  as  affecting  the 
present  relations  of  these  seminaries  with  their  judicatories. 

(c)  In  the  matter  of  contributions,  the  Board  is  requested  to  tender 
its  ser\dces  as  the  receiver  and  forwarder  of  contributions  designated 
for  these  institutions;  contributions  received  direct  by  the  seminaries 
to  be  reported  to  the  Board,  and  record  of  the  same  incorporated  in 
the  Board's  Annual  Report  to  the  Assembly. 

(d)  In  view  of  the  request  of  the  German  Presbyterian  Theological 
Seminary  of  the  Northwest  and  the  German  Theological  School  of 
Newark,  for  a  closer  union  between  them  and  the  Board  of  Education, 
it  is  recommended  that  the  Board  act  in  an  advisory  capacity,  as  far 
as  may  be  mutually  advantageous. 

13.  That  the  recommendations  of  the  Board  as  to  the  training  of 
lay  workers  be  amended  and  adopted,  as  follows : 

(1)  That  the  establishing  of  wisely  located  and  well  equipped 
schools  for  the  training  of  lay  workers,  which  are  in  organic  connec- 
tion with  the  Presbyterian  Church  in  the  U.  S.  A.,  be  encouraged  and 
supported,  and  their  needs  commended  to  the  liberality  of  churches 
and  individuals. 

(2)  That  the  Board  of  Education  be  directed  to  tender  its  services 
to  churches  and  individuals  in  the  receiving  and  forwarding  of  desig- 
nated offerings  for  such  institutions  or  departments  of  institutions 
for  the  training  of  lay  workers,  and  that  said  institutions  report  to 
the  Board  annually  offerings  received  directed  for  their  work,  which 
reports  shall  be  incorporated  in  the  Annual  Report  of  the  Board  of 
Education  to  the  General  Assembly. 

14.  That  the  Minutes  of  the  Board  and  the  Report  of  the  Treasurer, 
which  have  been  examined,  be  approved. 

15.  That  in  the  future  an  itemized  list  of  the  securities  in  which 
the  Permanent  Fund  is  invested  shall  be  made  a  part  of  the  Treasurer's 
Report,  giving  par  value  and  approximate  market  value  in  each  case. 

16.  That  the  Treasurer  in  the  future  shall  have  his  accounts 
audited  by  a  Public  Accountant,  whose  certificate  shall  be  appended 
to  the  Report. 

17.  In  view  of  the  widening  outlook  of  the  Board,  and  the  in- 
creased demand  for  means  with  which  to  continue  and  promote  its 
work,  churches  are  urged  to  increase  their  interest  in  and  enlarge  their 
gifts  to  this  all-important  agency. 

Respectfully  submitted, 

Edoar  p.  Hill,  Chairman. 


ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD  OF  EDUCATION.  81 

RULES  OF  THE  BOARD  OF  EDUCATION 

KELATING    TO 

CANDIDATES    FOR  THE    MINISTRY. 


I. — Depexdexce  df  the  Board   of   Education  upon  the  Presbyteries  of 

THE  Church. 

1.  The  Board  of  Education  shall  receive  and  aid  candidates  for  the  ministry  of 
the  Gospel  only  npon  the  recommendation  of  a  Presbytery  of  the  Church  ;  and  the 
Presbytery  is  responsible  for  their  examination,  subsequent  care,  and  the  designa- 
tion of  the  annual  amount  of  aid  to  be  granted  to  them,  within  the  limits  set  by 
the  General  Assembly. 

2.  The  Board  will  in  each  case  look  especially  to  the  Education  Committee  of 
the  Presbytery  for  filling  out  and  forwarding  the  form  of  recommendation  re- 
quired for  the  reception  of  a  candidate,  and  also  for  the  pastoral  care  of  the  same 
until  his  entrance  upon  his  oificial  duties. 

3.  As  a  general  rule  the  Board  will  receive  any  young  man  of  whose  examina- 
tion and  recommendation,  in  conformity  with  its  requirements,  proper  notification 
ha-s  been  given,  but  it  shall  be  at  liberty  to  refuse  new  candidates  beyond  its  ability 
to  support  them  ;  and  it  will  not  give  aid  to  students  from  the  foreign  missionary 
field  unless  they  have  been  recommended  by  our  foreign  missionaries  abroad,  or 
have  CDme  to  study  in  this  country  by  a  special  invitation  given  from  this  Board 
upon  the  request  of  other  duly  recognized  Church  authorities,  or  of  missionaries 
resident  on  the  fields  from  which  they  come. 

II. — Reception  of  Candidates. 

1.  The  encouragement  of  a  young  man  to  enter  the  Gospel  ministry  is  a  mat- 
ter of  serious  concern  both  to  himself  and  to  the  Church,  and  it  should  be  given 
only  by  those  who  have  proper  knowledge  of  his  mental  and  moral  character,  ac- 
companied with  much  counsel  and  prayer,  and  directly  by  a  single  desire  for  the 
glory  of  God.  Every  candidate  should  join  that  Presbytery  to  which  he  would  most 
naturally  belong,  and  he  should  be  introduced  to  it  either  by  his  pastor  or  by  some 
member  of  the  Education  Committee  after  such  acquaintance  as  will  warrant  his 
taking  the  responsibility  of  so  doing. 

2.  The  Presbytery,  in  examining  students  with  a  view  to  their  recommenda- 
tion for  aid,  must  embrace  such  points  as  are  indicated  by  the  following  questions,  to 
which  definite  answers,  by  the  direction  of  the  Assembly,  will  invariably  be  required 
by  the  Board:  Give  name  of  candidate  in  full.  Age?  Residence?  Date  of  his 
coming  under  care  of  Presbytery.  Has  Presbytery  examined  him  on  the  following 
points,  and  were  his  answers  satisfactory  :  Piety?  Motives  for  seeking  the  ministry  ? 
Talents  ?  Health  ?  Promise  of  practical  efficiency  ?  Is  he  free  from  expensive  and 
injurious  habits?  How  long  has  he  been  a  communicant  in  a  Presbyterian  church  ?

qnirements  contained  in  them?  What  is  the  smallest  amount  required  or  hij

ending  April  1  next?     Does  he  expect  aid  during  the  year  from  any  other  Educa- 
tional funds?     If  so,  how  much ?     And  from  what  sources? 

3.  Every  candidate  seeking  aid  from  the  funds  of  the  Board  of  Education  is  re- 
quired to  set  forth  in  a  paper  over  his  own  signature  the  extent  of  his  inability  to 
provide  for  himself  the  necessary  funds  for  his  education.  The  same  paper  shall 
contain  his  pledge  that  he  will  refund  to  the  Board  of  Education  all  moneys  re- 
ceived by  him  therefrom  in  any  of  the  contingencies  mentioned  in  Rule  III.  8. 

4.  No  candidate  shall  be  received  by  the  Board  who  has  not  been  a  member  of 
the  Presbyteiian  Church,  or  some  closely  related  body,  for  at  least  one  year  ;  who 
has  not  been  recommended  to  the  Pre-ibylery  by  the  Session  of  the  church  of  which 
he  is  a  member,  and  who  is  not  sufficiently  advanced  in  study  to  enter  college, 
except  in  extraordinary  cases. 

III. — Scholarships. 

1.  The  annual  scholarships  to  candidates  shall  be  the  same  in  amount  for  theo- 
logical and  collegiate  students,  and  not  exceed  $150  ;  for  those  in  the  preparatory 
course  the  amount  shall  not  exceed  $100. 

2.  These  scholarships  shall  be  paid  to  a  student  only  on  the  reception  of  par- 
ticular and  satisfactory  reports  from  his  professors,  embracing  the  following  points  : 
Christian  Character?  Scholarship?  Rhetorical  Ability?   Punctuality?  Economy? 

3.  The  Board  may  increase  or  diminish,  in  a  general  ratio,  the  scholarships  in 
case  of  unusual  surplus  or  deficiency  in  funds. 

4.  No  payment  shall  be  made  in  advance.  Each  payment  shall  be  acknowl- 
edged by  a  receipt  signed  by  the  candidate  or  by  the  person  authorized  by  him  to 
receive  it.  And  this  receipt  shall  contain  a  pledge  to  return  the  amount  given, 
with  interest,  in  case  he,  of  his  own  accord,  turn  aside  from  his  ministerial  calling. 

5.  In  order  to  make  the  times  for  payments  correspond  with  the  date  when 
reports  can  most  readily  be  secured  from  the  professors,  the  first  payment  shall  be 
made  on  or  about  the  first  of  November,  and  the  second  on  or  about  the  first  of 
March. 

6.  The  Board  will  in  no  case  be  responsible  for  the  debts  of  students,  but  it  is 
expected  of  them  that  the  scholarship  shall  be  first  applied  to  the  payment  of 
tuition  and  boarding. 

7.  The  payments  to  the  candidates  shall  cease  regularly  at  the  close  of  the 
collegiate  year,  or  earlier,  when  the  time  for  which  they  were  recommended  by  the 
Presbytery  has  expired,  and  also  as  soon  as  it  is  determined  that  they  are  suffer- 
ing from  prolonged  ill  health,  which  may  unfit  them  for  the  work  of  the  ministry, 
or  as  soon  as  their  private  circumstances  enable  them  to  dispense  with  assistance  ; 
and  if  they  have  been  manifestly  improvident,  or  have  contracted  debts  without 
reasonable  prospect  of  payment,  or  if  thej  have  married  since  the  last  payment,  or 
if  they  have  received  assistance  from  any  other  educational  board  or  society, 
further  payments  shall  be  forfeited. 

8.  The  sums  of  money  approiiriated  by  the  Board  shall  be  refunded  to  it,  with 
interest,  in  case  a  student  fails  to  enter  on  or  continue  in  the  work  of  the  ministry 
(unless  it  appears  that  he  is  providentially  prevented),  or  if  he  ceases  to  adhere  to 
the  standards  of  the  Presbyterian  Church,  or  if  he  changes  his  place  of  study  con- 
trary to  the  directions  of  the  Presbytery,  or  continue  to  prosecute  his  studies  at  an 
institution  not  approved  by  it  or  by  the  Board,  or  if  he  withdraws  his  connection 
from  the  Church  of  which  this  Board  is  the  organ  without  furnishing  a  satisfactory 
reason. 

9.  A  scholarship  afforded  by  the  Presbyterian  Church,  through  the  Board  of 
Education,  is  to  be  regarded  by  the  candidate  who  receives  its  benefit  as  the 
Church's  cheerful  contribution  to  facilitate  and  expedite  his  preparation  for  the  holy 
ministry,  and  may  be  accepted  as  a  gift  with  the  understanding  that  he  is  thereby 
simply  (jbliged  to  a  warmer  interest  in  her  efforts  for  the  advancement  of  the  Re- 
deemer's kingdom,  and  especially  to  the  use  of  the  means  necessary  to  instruct  and 
stimulate  her  members  in  the  duty  of  multiplying  and  sending  forth  preachers  of 
the  Gospel  of  salvation  to  all  the  world.  If,  however,  any  candidate  should  prefer 
to  receive  it  as  a  loan,  the  Board  of  Education  is  given  authority  to  lend  the 


ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD  OF  EDUCATION.        83 

amount  without  interest,  and  to  fjive  the  borrower  a  credit  of  $150  for  each  year 
of  service  spent,  at  the  conclusion  of"  his  education,  upon  a  mission  field  at  home  or 
abroad. 

10.  While  the  Church,  in  providing  scholarships  for  her  caudidates,  makes  uo 
specific  conditions  as  to  the  particular  kind  of  service  in  tlie  ministry  which  they 
will  be  expected  to  render  upon  the  completion  of  their  theological  training, 
nor  as  to  the  character  or  situation  of  the  place  where  they  shall  labor,  nevertheless 
her  judgment  is  that  they  ought  to  cultivate  a  missionary  spirit,  as  Christlike, 
apostolic  and  timely,  and  that  it  would  be  highly  becoming  in  them,  under  all  ordi- 
nary circumstances,  to  offer  their  services,  at  the  conclusion  of  their  education,  for 
work  in  missionary  fields,  ever  remembering  the  abounding  destitution  in  our  own 
country  as  well  as  iu  foreign  lands  ;  the  peculiar  fitness  of  young  men  for  such 
work  ;  the  honor,  privilege  and  advantage  pertaining  to  it ;  the  natural  expectations 
of  the  Church  which  has  trained  them  iu  the  hope  that  they  would  endure  hard- 
ness as  good  soldiers  ;  and,  above  all,  the  spirit  of  the  last  command  of  our  ascended 
Lord. 

IV. — Care  of  Candidates. 

1.  Candidates  are  required,  except  iu  extraordinary  cases,  and  then  only 
with  the  explicit  permission  of  their  Presbyteries,  to  pursue  a  thorough  course  of 
study,  preparatory  to  that  of  theology,  in  institutions  that  sympathize  with  the 
doctrinal  teachings  of  the  Presbyterian  Church  ;  and,  when  prejiared,  to  pursue  a 
three  years'  course  of  theological  studies  in  some  seminary  coimected  with  the  same 
Church,  and  uo  work  of  preaching  is  allowed  to  interfere  with  the  diligent  and 
faithful  prosecution  of  their  prescribed  studies  until  the  close. 

2.  The  Board  can  rely  only  upon  the  Education  Committee  of  each  Presbytery 
for  the  regular  care  of  its  own  candidates,  which  should  include  the  constant  exer- 
cise of  a  parental  oversight  over  them  in  spiritual  things,  and  the  bestowment  of 
the  counsel  they  need  as  to  their  mode  of  preparation,  their  place  of  study,  their 
trials,  and  the  occupation  of  their  time,  while  not  engaged  in  study,  in  employ- 
ments which  will  tend  to  qualify  them  for  effective  usefulness  as  pastors  or  evau- 


3.  The  Board  shall  assist  the  Presbytery  in  its  care  of  candidates  by  furnish- 
ing annually  to  the  Education  Committee  a  summary  of  information  from  the  pro- 
fessors'reports  as  to  the  standing  of  each  student;  and  the  Corresponding  Secre- 
tary shall  exercise  a  general  supervisory  care  over  them,  also  visit  and  address 
them,  when  practicable,  at  the  institution  where  they  are,  in  regard  to  their  duties 
and  the  claims  of  the  office  which  they  have  in  view. 

4.  The  recommendation  of  each  candidate  must  be  annually  renewed  by  his 
Presbytery,  if  possible  at  the  spring  meeting,  in  connection  with  one  from  the 
Session  of  the  church  of  which  he  is  a  member,  and  a  specification  must  be  made 
of  the  amount  needed  by  him  ;  and  until  the  notification  of  these  points  has  beeu 
received  a  student  will  not  be  considered  as  upon  the  roll  for  the  year. 

5.  Recommendations,  or  renewals  of  them,  made  by  an  Education  Committee 
in  the  interim  of  the  sessions  of  a  Presbytery,  shall  be  received  as  sufficient,  pio- 
vided  its  action  is  reported  to  the  Presbytery  at  the  next  session  and  not  counter- 
manded to  the  Board. 

6.  If  at  any  time  there  be  discovered  in  a  student  such  defect  in  capacity, 
diligence,  and  especially  in  piety,  as  would  render  his  introduction  into  the  min- 
istry a  doubtful  measure,  it  shall  be  the  sacred  duty  of  the  Board  to  communicate 
without  delay  the  information  received  to  the  Education  Committee  of  his  Presby- 
tery, and  if,  on  careful  inquiry  on  the  part  of  the  Presbytery,  no  satisfactory  expla- 
nation of  the  defect  can  be  obtained,  or  if  no  response  be  received  by  the  Board 
from  the  Presbytery  or  from  its  Committee  on  Education  within  the  current  quar- 
ter, it  shall  be  the  duty  of  the  Board  to  withdraw  its  aid  altogether. 

7.  Special  care  should  be  exercised  by  the  Presbytery  in  the  examination  of 
students  who  are  about  to  enter  upon  the  theological  course,  according  to  the  in- 
structions of  the  Form  of  Government  (Chap.  XIV,  Sec.  3);  and  this  examination 
should  be  conducted  by  the  Presbytery,  and  be  entirely  satisfactory  as  to  the  "  real 


84        ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD  OF  EDUCATION. 

piety"  of  the  students  "and  the  motives  which  have  influenced  them  to  desire  the 
sacred  office,"  before  they  are  allowed  to  take  the  final  step  toward  assuming  its 
great  responsibilities. 

8.  The  annual  report,  occasional  publications  of  this  Board,  and  a  copy  of  the 
Confession  of  Faith  shall  be  sent  gratis  to  all  students  under  its  care  who  request 
them. 

V. — Particular  Duties  of  Candidates. 

1.  Inasmuch  as  the  great  aim  of  the  Church  in  the  establishment  of  the  Board 
of  Education  is  the  increase  of  holy  and  faithful  preachers  of  the  Gospel,  the  young 
brethren  who  look  to  this  work  are  earnestly  and  affectionately  reminded  that  all 
intellectual  acquisitions  are  of  little  value  without  the  cultivation  of  piety,  and 
that  they  are  expected  and  required  to  pay  special  attention  to  ^e  practical  duties 
of  religion,  such  as  reading  the  Scriptures,  secret  prayer  and  meditation,  occasional 
acts  of  special  consecration  of  themselves  to  Christ  and  to  His  service,  as  their  Re- 
deemer and  as  the  Lord  of  all,  attendance  at  regular  meetings  on  the  Sabbath  and 
during  the  week,  endeavors  to  promote  the  salvation  of  others,  and  the  exhibition 
at  all  times  of  a  pious  and  consistent  example.  ' 

2.  Inasmuch  as  the  scholarships  granted  by  the  Board  will  necessarily  fall 
short  of  a  full  support  of  the  students,  it  will  be  expected  that  they  and  their 
friends  will  make  all  proper  exertions  to  supply  whatever  may  be  wanting. 

3.  When  a  student  shall  find  it  nece>*sary  to  relinquish  study  for  a  time  in 
order  to  increase  his  means  for  support  by  teaching  or  otherwise,  he  shall  first  ob- 
tain the  consent  of  the  Education  Committee  of  the  Presbvtery  or  of  the  Board  ; 
and  if,  when  given,  he  shall  not  be  absent  from  study  more  than  three  months,  hi.s 
scholarship  will  be  continued,  but  if  longer,  it  will  be  discontinued,  or  continued 
in  part,  according  to  circumstances. 

4.  It  shall  be  the  duty  of  each  candidate  connected  with  the  Board  to  report 
himself,  soon  after  the  meeting  of  the  General  Assembly,  to  the  Education  Com- 
mittee of  his  Presbytery  as  to  his  progress,  wants  and  prospects ;  and  when  any 
of  the  requisitions  of  the  Board  which  affect  him  may  not  be  carried  out  by 
teacliers  or  others,  it  becomes  his  duty  to  see  that  they  are  attended  to,  that  delays 
and  losses  to  himself  may  be  prevented. 

5.  The  reception  of  a  scholarship  by  a  student  shall  be  considered  as  express- 
ing a  promise  to  comply  with  all  the  rules  and  regulations  of  the  Board. 

VI. — Exceptional  Cases. 

1.  The  Board  will  not  ordinarily  take  under  its  care  as  candidates  for  the 
ministry  any  who  have  not  completed  a  course  preparatory  to  college.  If  excep- 
tional cases  are  recommended  by  Presbyteries  the  Board  should  be  certified  that 
there  has  been  a  season  of  thorough  trial  and  approval  under  competent  teachers 
through  two  or  three  years. 

2.  Such  students  are  not  to  expect  the  benefit  of  scholarships  for  more  than 
two  years  before  entering  college.

ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD  OF  EDUCATION.        87 

"HINTS"  to  the  Chairmen  of  Education  Committees  of  Pres- 
byteries as  to  the  Recommendation  of  Candidates  to 
the  Presbyterian  Board  of  Education. 


1.  The  Board  desire  to  emphasize  particularly  the  importance  of  a  full  and 
complete  answer  to  every  question  pertaining  to  each  particular  case  under  con- 
sideration. They  cannot  act  upon  an  incomplete  recommendation,  whether  it  be 
a  "renewal"  or  a  "new  case,"  and  omissions,  with  the  consequent  necessity 
for  correspondence,  cause  delay,  often  greatly  to  the  inconvenience  of  the  candi- 
date. 

2.  Make  sure,  before  any  other  action  is  taken,  that  the  candidate  has  been 
recommended  to  Presbytery  by  the  Session  of  his  Church,  as  this  is  the  funda- 
mental requirement. 

3.  Always  use  the  recommendation  blanks  provided  by  the  Board. 

4.  Never  put  renewals  on  blanks  intended  for  first  recommendation;  never 
put  first  recommendations  on  renewal  blanks.  You  will  thus  prevent  serious 
confusion  at  the  office  of  the  Board. 

5.  Write  the  recommendations  plainly  in  ink;  never  use  pencil. 

6.  Do  not  write  anything  on  the  recommendation  blanks  other  than  is  re- 
quired by  the  answers.  Additional  notes  of  explanation  which  may  be  necessary 
should  be  sent  in  an  accompanying  letter. 

7.  In  stating  the  place  and  stage  of  study  of  the  candidate,  name  the  class 
and  institution  in  which  he  will  be  under  instruction  for  the  year  which  the  recom- 
mendation is  intended  to  cover;  e.g.,  if  the  recommendation  is  made  out  in  the 
spring,  name  the  institution  and  class  which  the  candidate  is  to  enter  in  the  fall. 

8.  Use  new  recommendation  blank  for  all  candidates  who  have  never  been 
accepted  and  enrolled  by  the  Board,  no  matter  how  many  times  recommended  in 
past  years.  Use  renewal  blank  for  all  candidates  who  have  been  at  any  time 
enrolled  by  the  Board  even  though  subsequently  dropped, 

9.  If  a  candidate,  who  has  at  any  time  previously  been  under  the  care  of  the 
Board,  comes  to  you  from  another  Presbytery,  send  to  us  your  recommendation 
in  the  form  of  a  renewal;  and  give  us  the  name  of  the  Presbytery  from  which  you 
receive  liim. 

10.  Recommendations  for  new  candidates  should  be  sent  in  as  early  as  may 
be  convenient;  but  renewals  should  ordinarily  be  deferred  until  Presbyteries  have 
had  time  to  consider  each  case  in  the  light  of  all  information  obtainable  as  to 
candidate's  conduct  and  work  during  the  year.  Such  cases  are  not  in  the  least 
imperiled  by  the  delay  occasioned  by  this  patient  consideration. 

11.  If  the  candidate  does  not  propose  to  pursue  his  studies,  preparatory  to 
theology,  in  an  institution  which  sympatliizes  with  the  doctrinal  teachings  of  the 
Presbyterian  Church  [as  our  rules  require,  except  in  extraordinary  cases],  send 
us  the  assurance  that  he  has  the  explicit  permission  of  his  Presbytery,  and  the 
reason  for  the  permission. 

12.  If  the  candidate  is  from  a  foreign  country,  the  assurance  must  be  sent  to 
us  that  he  intends  to  exercise  Ms  ministry  in  connection  with  the  Church  in  the 
United  States. 

13.  In  corresponding  about  a  candidate,  always  mention  the  Presbytery  to 
which  he  belongs.     Tliis  will  help  us  greatly  in  looking  up  his  case. 

14.  Do  not  mutilate  the  recommendation  blanks,  but  mail  them,  properly 
folded,  in  a  large  envelope.     Tliis  will  aid  us  in  filing  and  indexing. 

15.  Take  no  action  without  careful  study  of  the  printed  rules  prescribed  for 
our  mutual  guidance  by  the  General  Assembly.

REPORT    OF    THE    STANDING    COMMITTEE    ON 
PUBLICATION  AND  SABBATH-SCHOOL  WORK. 

Presented  to  and  approved  by  the  General  Assembly  at 
Denver,  Colorado,  May  26th,  1909. 

Your  Committee  on  Publication  and  Sabbath-school 
Work  has  received  the  Seventy-first  Annual  Report  of  the 
Board  and  herewith  presents  the  following  report : 

Of  all  the  various  agencies  having  to  do  with  Christian 
work,  the  Sabbath  school  has  a  most  important  place,  for  it 
has  to  do  with  the  implanting  in  the  minds  of  the  youth  of 
our  land  those  Christian  principles  which  go  to  make  men 
and  women  of  positive  qualities  and  true  worth.  Its  work 
must  ever  be  kept  in  the  forefront,  for  if  the  church  of  the 
next  generation  is  to  be  the  moving  factor  in  the  uplifting  of 
the  human  race  there  must  be  men  and  women  of  noble  breed 
who,  having  fed  upon  the  word  of  God,  are  enabled  to  stand 
firm  against  all  opposing  systems.  It  little  matters  whether 
that  work  is  studied  and  taught  in  a  mission  chapel  in  a  city 
slum  or  in  the  sod  house  on  the  prairie  or  in  the  great  cathedral 
in  the  city;  the  purpose  is  the  same  in  each  and  all,  and  the 
bread  cast  upon  the  waters  in  the  shape  of  sacrificing  efforts 
will  return  in  the  form  of  an  uplifted  community  and  result 
in  the  turning  of  men's  faces  to  God.  Your  Sabbath-school 
worker  must  be  a  man  or  woman  whose  faith  is  firmly  fixed, 
and,  having  a  knowledge  of  the  living  Word,  can  make  it 
known  to  others. 

Your  Sabbath-school  missionary  needs  to  be  a  man  of 
parts,  capable  of  adapting  himself  to  every  situation ;  he  must 
be  a  man  among  men,  with  a  love  for  souls  and  possessed  of 
a  vision  for  greater  things.  You  see  him  with  a  railroad  en- 
gineering corps  studying  the  strategic  points  before  a  rail  is 
laid,  and  when  towns  are  platted  and  the  home-seekers'  rush 
begins  he  is  already  on  the  ground.     You  see  him  in  the  min-

IV 


ing  camp,  the  friend  of  the  child,  the  foe  of  the  evil  one ;  you 
see  him  on  the  open  reservation ;  you  see  him  with  the  logging- 
gang  in  the  forests,  with  the  settler  on  the  prairie,  with  the 
toiler  in  the  mining  village,  and  wherever  found  his  influence 
is  felt;  and  the  many  churches  which  dot  our  Western  land 
to-day  bear  silent  testimony  to  the  energy  of  the  men  who 
blazed  the  pathway. 

Your  Board  has  been  given  a  mighty  task  to  perform — a 
task  which  can  be  done  only  as  the  Church  remains  true  to 
her  vision ;  and  as  the  Board  now  enters  upon  a  new  era 
in  its  history  the  lessons  learned  from  seventy-one  years  of 
experience  are  of  more  than  passing  value,  and  as  its  con- 
templated change  of  name  suggests  greater  things,  suggests 
a  larger  vision,  so  greater  things  will  follow.  Its  new  plans 
are  comprehensive;  they  tell  of  greater  service.  In  carrying 
them  out  the  Sabbath-school  missionary  will  be  doing  the 
work  of  a  pioneer  corps  on  the  one  hand,  and  of  an  educa- 
tional Sabbath-school  worker  on  the  other.  It  is  evident  that 
this  twofold  work  will  call  for  the  service  of  men  who  are 
familiar  with  Sabbath-school  work  in  all  of  its  details,  and  will 
demand  their  entire  time  and  thought  and  effort.  There  are 
other  aspects  of  church  work  that  are  most  important  and 
which  must  be  done  by  the  appointed  workers,  but  for  the 
Sabbath-school  missionary  no  work  is  more  important  than 
Sabbath-school  work,  and  to  it  he  must  necessarily  give  him- 
self if  he  is  to  do  it  right. 

Your  Committee  calls  attention  to  the  great  revival  in 
'Bible  study,  as  shown  by  the  teachers'  training  classes,  and  the 
efforts  put  forth  by  state  and  international  Sabbath-school  as- 
sociations to  place  a  copy  of  the  Bible  in  the  hands  of  every 
member  of  the  Sabbath  school;  and  as  the  children  of  the 
Church  are  entitled  to  learn  scripture  truth  from  the  most  ac- 
curate English  translation,  we  note  with  approval  that  the 
editors  of  our  Sabbath-school  periodicals  are  basing  their 
notes  and  comments  on  the  American  Standard  Version,  whose 


high  scholarship  and  loyalty  to  the  original  text  are  universally 
recognized. 

The  fact  that  Bible  teachers"  training  classes  are  now  or- 
ganized in  all  the  evangelical  churches  and  the  Bible  is  being 
studied  in  a  more  systematic  W3.y  than  ever  before,  tells  the 
story  we  love  to  hear.  Among  other  Churches  the  Disciples 
of  Christ  claim  a  membership  of  one  hundred  and  twenty-five 
thousand  in  their  organized  teachers'  training  classes,  while 
the  Y.  M.  C.  A.  has  over  six  hundred  thousand  in  this  sys- 
tematic study ;  and  it  remains  for  our  own  great  Church  to  be 
the  leader  in  this  movement. 

Your  Committee  notes  with  pleasure  the  earnest  efforts 
of  the  Board  during  the  year  past,  resulting  in  advance  in  all 
departments  of  the  v/ork  of  the  Board.  It  commends  the 
fidelity,  the  business  ability,  the  care  and  faithful  attendance 
upon  their  duties  shown  by  the  very  busy  men  who  compose 
the  Board,  and  it  commends  in  particular  the  proposed 
annuity  plan  of  paying  the  mortgage  on  the  Witherspoon 
Building. 

The  opening  of  the  South  and  Southwest  as  a  result  of 
the  reunion,  the  branching  out  in  the  young  people's  work 
and  the  development  of  the  educational  feature  in  the  Board's 
work,  have  all  added  additional  responsibilities  upon  the  Board. 

Your  Committee  deems  it  advisable  for  the  sake  of  the 
Southwest  that  the  publication  of  the  Cumberland  Presby- 
terian, or  a  paper  of  similar  import,  be  continued  without  any 
intermission,  regardless  of  the  outcome  of  the  existing  litiga- 
tion; that  great  stress  be  laid  upon  the  training  of  children 
in  fundamental  religious  truths,  rather  than  an  appeal  to  the 
emotional  side  of  the  religious  life,  and  that  our  young  people 
be  taught  the  value  of  systematic  Bible  study.  The  Shorter 
Catechism,  which  was  good  enough  for  our  fathers,  is  good 
enough  for  us,  and  if  a  stalwart  breed  of  Christians  is  to  be 
the  dominant  factor  in  the  coming  generation  strong  food  must 
be  fed  to  our  children. 


VI 


It  is  expected  that  the  World's  International  Sunday- 
School  Association,  to  be  held  in  Washington,  D.  C,  in  May, 
19 lo,  will  be  the  greatest  ever  held ;  and  your  Committee  would 
urge  the  various  Boards  of  the  Church  to  circulate  general  in- 
formation regarding  it,  and  urge  the  attendance  of  workers 
wherever  possible,  and  the  Foreign  Board  especially  to  ar- 
range the  furlough  of  its  missionaries  to  suit  this  date. 

The  Minutes  of  the  Board  and  its  Committees  have  been 
placed  in  the  hands  of  your  Committee,  which  has  found  them 
in  order  and  recommends  their  approval.  Each  of  the  various 
departments  tells  the  story  of  industry,  of  progress,  of  thrift. 
In  the  Department  of  Sabbath- School  Missionary  Work  an 
ever-widening  field  is  seen :  161  missionaries  and  colporteurs 
have  labored  within  the  bounds  of  127  Presbyteries,  and  as 
a  result  781  new  Sabbath  schools  have  been  organized,  while 
unto  248  more  schools  new  life  has  been  imparted  and  they 
raised  from  the  dead.  Into  these  schools  have  been  gathered 
38,152  pupils.  Other  schools  to  the  number  of  2,725  have  in 
one  way  or  other  felt  the  helping  touch;  while  113  churches 
stand  forth  to-day  in  part  the  direct  result  of  Sabbath-school 
efifort.  Into  the  78  chapels  and  churches  which  have  been 
erected  $151,775  have  been  placed — a  worthy  asset  of  a  great 
and  growing  Church;  and  when  we  remember  that  for  the 
past  twenty-two  years  there  has  been  an  average  of  81  churches 
built  each  year,  it  is  no  wonder  that  this  Western  land  is  being 
taken  and  held  for  Christ.  Our  missionary  colporteurs  have 
gone  here  and  there  among  our  foreign  population  with  their 
books  and  Bibles  and  tracts,  sowing  a  seed  which  is  bringing 
forth  a  rich  fruitage.  The  four  foreign  periodicals  published 
by  the  Board  have  an  ever-increasing  circulation,  while  the 
Bible  picture  cards,  in  six  different  languages,  have  an  increas- 
ing popularity.  The  Sabbath-school  training  work  has  been 
given  especial  attention  during  the  past  year,  and  the  literature 
upon  this  line  of  work  is  within  the  reach  of  all.  It  is  the 
opinion  of  your  Committee  that  this  line  of  work  should  be 


Vll 


pushed  in  all  our  Synods,  for  a  trained  corps  of  workers  means 
a  more  permanent  result  in  all  lines  of  work. 

In  the  Educational  Department  no  less  than  twenty  new 
publications  have  been  issued  from  the  press,  while  seventeen 
former  publications  have  been  reprinted.  Forty-one  tracts  and 
leaflets  have  been  sent  forth  on  their  silent  mission. 

Your  Committee  wishes  to  compliment  the  Board  upon 
the  high  standard  of  its  Children's  Day  programme,  it  being  a 
notable  improvement  upon  those  of  former  years.  The  West- 
minster periodicals  have  found  their  way  throughout  the 
Church,  and  the  school  failing  to  use  the  same  is  not  true  to 
the  very  best. 

In  the  Business  Department  business  methods  have  been 
used,  as  the  carefully  kept  books  show,  and  the  net  profits  of 
this  department  make  a  fine  showing  in  spite  of  the  financial 
depression  of  the  past  year. 

Your  Committee  desires  to  call  especial  attention  to 
Young  People's  Work.  This  department  was  not  fully  estab- 
lished until  September,  1907,  and  in  this  short  time  has  accom- 
plished a  vast  amount  of  work.  Its  aim  is  to  efifect  more  ade- 
quate organization  of  the  young  people  and  to  educate  them 
in  matters  of  Christian  work,  missions  and  church  history  and 
church  afTairs.  A  vast  amount  of  literature  has  been  prepared 
and  sent  forth  to  meet  existing  needs,  while  the  columns  of  our 
Church  papers  have  been  largely  used  in  forwarding  this  work. 
Conferences  and  schools  of  methods  have  been  conducted, 
while  every  effort  has  been  put  forth  to  make  the  young  peo- 
ple's work  a  crowning  feature  of  our  Church. 

We  make  the  following  recommendations  for  adoption 
by  the  Assembly : 

I.  That  the  attention  of  the  pastors  and  superintendents 
of  the  Sabbath  schools  be  called  to  the  new  International 
Graded  Sunday-School  Lessons,  and  to  the  fact  that  Helps  for 
the  same  will  be  ready  for  distribution  by  our  Board  of  Pub- 
lication by  October  ist  of  this  year. 


Vlll 


2.  That  the  Board  of  PubHcatiori  be  authorized  to  co- 
operate with  the  Board  of  Home  Missions  in  uniting  the 
work  of  the  Sabbath-school  missionary  and  the  pastoral 
evangelist  whenever  requested  to  do  so  by  a  Presbytery  or 
Presbyteries. 

3.  Recognizing  the  opportunity  afforded  the  Sabbath- 
school  Committees  of  Synod  and  Presbytery  for  rendering- 
helpful  service  to  Sabbath  schools  under  their  care,  the  General 
Assembly  recommends  that  an  effort  be  made  to  place  upon 
these  Committees  men  who  are  known  as  efficient  Sabbath- 
school  workers,  and  that  these  Committees  be  encouraged  to 
plan  and  work  for  the  improvement  of  the  Sabbath  schools  of 
the  Church. 

4.  In  view  of  the  fact  that  so  many  of  the  denominations 
and  publishing  houses  are  now  selecting  their  lesson  texts 
exclusively  from  the  American  Standard  Edition  of  the  Re- 
vised Version,  and  the  further  fact  that  the  Board  will  begin 
in  October  to  publish  the  new  graded  lessons  for  elementary 
departments  as  provided  by  the  International  Sunday-School 
Association,  which  will  be  based  upon  the  text  of  the  American 
Standard  Edition  of  the  Revised  Version,  the  Assembly  recom- 
mends that  the  Board  of  Publication  carefully  considers 
whether  it  would  not  be  advisable  to  adopt  the  American 
Standard  Edition  of  the  Revised  Version  as  the  text  of  its 
lesson  helps. 

5.  The  Assembly  recommends  that  the  Board  enlarge  and 
extend  the  educational  features  of  its  work  as  rapidly  as  its 
funds  admit,  looking  to  the  perfecting  of  the  work  done  in 
all  the  schools,  and  advises  the  appointment  of  educational 
superintendents  who  shall  be  Sabbath-school  experts  in  as  large 
areas  as  can  be  successfully  covered. 

6.  We  recommend  that  churches  and  Sabbath  schools 
make  liberal  offerings  on  Children's  Day  for  the  work  of  Sab- 
bath-school Missions,  and  that  on  Rally  Day  an  offering  be 
made  for  work  among  our  foreign  citizens. 


7-  We  recommend  that  all  Sabbath  schools  be  urg-ed  to 
use  the  lesson  helps  and  illustrated  papers  issued  by  our  Board, 
not  only  in  view  of  the  high  character  of  the  literature,  but 
because  it  shows  loyalty  to  the  Church  and  because  two-thirds 
of  the  profits  of  the  Business  Department  are  given  to  the  mis- 
sionary work  of  the  Board. 

8.  We  recommend  that  the  pastors  and  leaders  of  the 
Church  be  urged  to  promote  and  encourage  all  efforts  toward 
religious   education   among-  their  young  people's   societies. 

9.  Wq  recommend  that  the  first  Sunday  in  February  be 
named  Young  People's  Day,  and  that  one  of  the  church  serv- 
ices be  devoted  to  the  interests  of  young  people's  work. 

10.  We  recommend  that  the  Summer  Conferences,  con- 
ducted by  the  Department  of  Young  People's  Work,  be  heartily 
commended  to  the  young  people  of  our  various  congregations, 
and  that  delegates  be  sent  to  them  whenever  it  is  expedient  so 
to  do.  It  is  also  recommended  that  an  annual  offering  be 
made  by  the  churches  and  young  people's  societies  for  the  sup- 
port of  this  work. 

11.  The  Committee  recommends  that  no  action  be  taken 
on  Overture  No.  50.  from  the  Presbytery  of  Los  Angeles,  as 
to  changes  in  Sabbath-school  lessons ;  and  it  recommends  that 
the  Board  endeavor  to  work  out  ways  and  means  to  meet  the 
needs  suggested  in  Overture  No.  44,  from  the  Presbytery  of 
Flint,  as  to  a  new  edition  of  the  Chapel  Hymnal.  In  view  of 
the  fact  that  no  such  advertisements  as  are  named  in  Overture 
No.  58  are  found  appearing  in  any  of  the  publications  of  our 
Board,  it  is  recommended  that  no  action  be  taken. 

12.  The  term  of  office  of  the  following  members  of  the 
Board  will  expire  next  month : 

Ministers:  Elders: 

Rev.  Wm.    Brenton    Greene.    D.    D.,  William  W.  Allen,

tion of  Rev.  J.  D.  Hunter,  Rev.  S.  D.  Logan,  Mr.  I.  H.  Good- 
night and  Mr.  W.  T.  Cartwright,  who  were  elected  to  fill

THE  SEVENTY-FIRST  ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE 

PRESBYTERIAN  BOARD   OF  PUBLICATION 

AND    SABBATH -SCHOOL    WORK 


Approved  by  the  Board,  April  27th,  1909 


The  Board  of  Publication  and  Sabbath-School  Work 
presents  to  the  General  Assembly  its  Seventy-first  Annual 
Report.  The  manifold  and  important  interests  committed  by 
the  Church  to  this  Board  call  for  close  attention  and  careful 
management;  this  the  Board  has  endeavored  to  give  them, 
freely  expending  time  and  effort  in  so  doing. 

During  the  past  year  the  development  of  our  work  and 
the  appreciation  of  the  Church  have  been  most  gratifying,  as 
will  be  seen  from  the  detailed  statements  of  the  report  we 
herewith  present. 

There  are  several  subjects  to  which  we  would  particularly 
call  attention. 

PUBLICATIONS  OF  THE  BOARD 

Special  efforts  have  been  made  this  year  to  meet  the  de- 
mand of  the  Church  for  material  concerning  Calvin,  whose 
quater-centenary  is  being  celebrated.  To  this  end,  we  have 
arranged  with  the  Sunday-school  Board  of  the  Reformed 
Church  and  the  Presbyterian  Committee  of  the  Presbyterian 
Church  U.  S.,  in  the  joint  publication  of  the  "Life  of  John 
Calvin,"  by  Philip  Vollmer,  D.  D.,  and  "Life  Pictures  of  Cal- 
vin for  Young  and  Old,"  by  James  I.  Good,  D.  D.,  and  George 
W.  Richards,  D.  D. 

3 


4  SEVENTY-FIRST  ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD     [May, 

We  have  also  published  the  famous  short  "Life  of  Calvin," 
by  his  friend  Beza ;  and  from  plates  in  possession  of  the  Board 
have  issued  a  "memorial  edition"  of  the  Institutes,  with  a  new 
portrait,  greatly  enriched  also  by  an  Introduction  by  Dr.  B.  B. 
Warfield. 

We  would  call  attention  to  the  fact  that  the  Institutes 
and  the  Letters  of  Calvin  published  by  the  Board  are  the  only 
available  editions  in  English. 

A  new  edition  of  Dr.  Smyth's  "Calvin  Defended"  has 
also  been  issued. 

We  are  also  to  publish,  June  17,  "Calvin  as  a  Theologian 
and  Calvinism  To-day,"  three  addresses  in  commemoration  of 
the  four  hundredth  anniversary  of  the  birth  of  John  Calvin, 
by  Benjamin  B.  Warfield,  D.  D.,  LL.  D. 

During  the  past  year  an  effort  has  been  made  to  maintain 
and  improve  the  high  character  of  our  periodicals.  The  re- 
sponses of  our  Sunday  schools  have  encouraged  us  greatly.  As 
an  illustration,  we  are  now  publishing  three  hundred  thousand 
copies  of  Forzvard  every  week,  or  a  total  of  more  than  fifteen 
and  a  half  million  copies  a  year. 

Beginning  with  October  we  expect  to  publish  instead  of 
the  Sabbath-School  Visitor  a  new  paper  entitled  The  Comrade. 
It  will  be  suited  to  the  tastes  and  requirements  of  the  boys 
and  girls  of  the  Intermediate  Department,  and  we  hope  will 
become  as  popular  with  them  and  as  helpful  as  Forzvard  is 
with  the  older  pupils. 

At  the  same  time  we  shall  begin  the  issue  of  a  new 
periodical  to  be  known  as  TJic  Adult  Bible  Class  Monthly.  It 
will  contain  comments  upon  the  International  Sunday-school 
lessons  and  suggestions  of  plans  of  work  for  adult  classes. 
The  growth  of  these  classes  throughout  the  Church  has  created 
a  demand  for  a  help  of  this  nature. 

The  Board  has  just  published  a  new  teacher-training 
course  entitled  "Preparation  for  Teaching."  It  is  meant  to  take 
the  place  of  the  first  volume  of  "The  Westminster  Teacher- 


1909.]     OF   PUBLICATION   AND   SABBATH-SCHOOL   WORK.  5 

Training  Course,"  pjablished  by  the  Board  some  years  ago. 
The  new  book  will  conform  to  the  standard  recently  adopted 
by  the  various  denominations  and  the  International  Sunday 
School  Association,  and  will  be  of  great  practical  service  to 
Sunday  schools  that  are  endeavoring  to  train  their  teachers. 
The  series  of  Westminster  Handbooks  dealing  with  dif- 
ferent phases  of  Sunday-school  work,  has  been  enlarged  dur- 
ing the  year.  A  list  of  these,  together  with  details  regarding 
our  Sunday-school  literature,  will  be  found  on  page  19. 

SUNDAY-SCHOOL   IMPROVEMENT 

Increased  attention  has  been  paid  during  the  past  year  to 
this  phase  of  our  work.  The  work  of  the  Sunday  school  is 
constantly  growing  in  importance.  Pastors  and  sessions  are 
giving  more  consideration  to  this  subject,  and  are  on  the  out- 
look for  helpful  suggestions  and  plans  of  work. 

The  Board  is  endeavoring  to  render  this  help  in  every 
possible  way.  We  are  preparing  literature  of  various  kinds, 
as  has  been  suggested.  Our  missionaries,  in  all  parts  of  the 
Church,  have  been  instructed  to  give  special  attention  to  Sun- 
day-school improvement.  They  are  expected  to  make  them- 
selves familiar  with  modern  methods  of  Sunday-school  work 
and  to  be  of  help  to  the  schools  in  their  respective  fields. 

In  addition  to  this,  our  missionaries  have  been  holding 
conferences  and  institutes  in  various  Synods  and  Presbyteries. 
The  officers  of  the  Board  have,  on  a  number  of  occasions, 
rendered  assistance  in  these  meetings. 

The  last  General  Assembly  recommended  that  Synods 
and  Presbyteries,  in  the  appointment  of  Sunday-school  com- 
mittees, make  an  effort  to  secure  efficient  Sunday-school  men. 
The  intent  of  this  recommendation  is  to  place  upon  the  Sun- 
day-school committees  men  familiar  with  modern  methods  of 
work,  and  in  earnest  to  have  the  Sunday  schools  under  their 
care  adopt  these  methods. 


6  SEVENTY- FIRST  ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD     [May, 

The  Board  has  been  striving  earnestly  to  cooperate  effi- 
ciently with  these  committees  in  their  efforts  to  improve  our 
more  than  ten  thousand  Presbyterian  Sunday  schools. 

Details  of  what  has  been  done  for  Sunday-school  im- 
provement will  be  found  under  the  appropriate  headings. 

SUNDAY-SCHOOL  EXTENSION 

While  we  seek  to  aid  the  existing  Sunday  schools  of  our 
Church,  it  is  the  Board's  duty  also  to  carry  the  privileges 
of  the  Sunday  school  to  the  thousands  of  boys  and  girls  who 
do  not  now  enjoy  these  opportunities.  For  twenty-two  years 
the  Board  has  been  definitely  engaged  in  this  work  with  ever- 
increasing  appreciation  on  the  part  of  the  Church. 

During  the  past  year  our  missionaries  have  been  working 
in  all  parts  of  the  United  States,  but  more  especially  in  the 
West  and  Southwest. 

The  results  of  their  efforts  have  been  most  encouraging. 
The  Board  regrets  its  inability,  through  lack  of  funds,  to  put 
more  missionaries  into  the  field  in  response  to  the  urgent 
appeals  that  have  come  to  us  from  a  number  of  needy  Presby- 
teries. It  is  our  hope  that  we  may  be  able  to  do  this  during 
the  coming  year. 

We  ask  your  attention  to  the  full  details  as  they  are  pre- 
sented in  the  appended  report. 

THE  YOUNG  PEOPLE 

The  Board  has  been  actively  engaged  in  working  for  our 
young  people  for  a  year  and  a  half.  During  this  time  con- 
siderable progress  has  been  made,  and  we  are  beginning  to 
see  some  of  the  results  of  our  efforts. 

We  have  gone  far  enough  to  learn  not  only  the  necessity 
for  this  work  but  some  of  the  ways  in  which  we  can  be  of 
definite  service. 

It  is  the  desire  of  the  Board,  in  carrying  on  this  work,  to 
keep  in  mind  the  development  of  our  young  people,  seeking 


1909.]    OF  PUBLICATION   AND  SABBATH-SCHOOL  WORK.  7 

rather  to  be  of  help  to  them  than  to  appeal  to  them  to  be  of 
help  to  us.  We  feel  that  in  this  way  we  can  be  of  most  service 
to  the  local  church  and  to  the  entire  denomination. 

It  is,  furthermore,  our  aim  to  do  this  in  the  interest  of 
all  the  Boards  and  benevolent  agencies  of  the  Church. 

We  look  forward  to  the  time  when,  on  the  one  hand, 
any  Board  desirous  of  presenting-  some  matter  to  our  Presby- 
terian young  people  will  find  in  our  Young  People's  Depart- 
ment an  open  door  for  this  purpose;  and,  on  the  other  hand, 
any  pastor  wishing  to  learn  the  best  methods  of  work  among 
his  young  people  will  find  that  we  are  prepared  to  give  him 
all  the  information  or  help  he  may  need. 

Details  will  be  found  on  pages  23,  24. 

THE  DEBT  ON  THE  WITHERSPOON  BUILDING 

When  the  Witherspoon  Building  was  erected  in  1897,  some 
twelve  years  ago,  it  cost,  together  with  the  land,  $1,080,000. 
The  Board  was  able  to  pay  $480,000  of  the  total  cost,  leaving 
$600,000  to  be  provided  for  by  a  mortgage  placed  upon  the 
building.  During  the  years  that  have  elapsed  since  the  build- 
ing was  occupied,  $300,000  has  been  paid  upon  this  mortgage, 
leaving  $300,000  yet  to  be  paid. 

The  Board,  acting  in  conjunction  with  a  special  com- 
mittee appointed  by  the  General  Assembly,  has  agreed  upon 
a  plan  for  meeting  this  indebtedness.  It  has  issued  annuity 
bonds  in  sums  of  $500,  $1,000  and  $5,000,  bearing  interest 
at  the  rate  of  five  to  seven  per  cent.,  according  to  the  age  of 
the  annuitant.  The  payment  of  this  interest  is  secured  by  the 
income  from  the  Witherspoon  Building  and  the  profits  of  the 
business  of  the  Board. 

It  is  agreed  that  upon  the  death  of  the  annuitant  the 
principal  of  the  bond  shall  be  used  in  the  payment  of  the  in- 
debtedness of  the  Witherspoon  Building. 

As  rapidly  as  this  indebtedness  is  discharged  the  income 
of  the  building — after  current  expenses  have  been  met  and 


8  SEVENTY-FIRST  ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD     [May, 

the  needs  of  the  building  itself  provided  for — will  be  used  in 
the  promotion  of  the  Sunday-school  missionary  work  of  the 
Board. 

THE  BOARD  AND  ITS  TRUSTEES 

At  a  meeting  of  the  Board  held  March  31st,  1909,  the  fol- 
lowing resolution  was  adopted : 

Resolved,  That  the  General  Assembly  be  requested  to  authorize  the 
transfer  to  the  Board  of  Publication  and  Sabbath-School  Work  of  the 
duties  and  powers  of  the  Trustees  of  the  Board  of  Publication  and  Sab- 
bath-School Work,  and  to  take  all  necessary  steps  to  this  end. 

In  transmitting  this  resolution  to  the  General  Assembly, 
the  Board  requests  the  Assembly  to  take  the  action  proposed 
by  the  resolution ;  and  also  to  empower  the  Board  to  take  any 
steps  that  may  be  necessary  in  carrying  out  the  action  of  the 
Assembly. 

GUARANTY  INSURANCE 

The  last  General  Assembly  submitted  to  the  Boards  the 
question  whether  it  would  be  advisable  that  the  Treasurers 
"of  all  trust  funds  of  Boards  should  carry  guaranty  insurance 
on  all  cash  balances  held  in  bank." 

The  Board,  on  October  27th,  1908,  adopted  a  resolution 
declaring  that  in  its  judgment  "guaranty  insurance  is  unneces- 
sary and  inadvisable."  We  would  accordingly  so  report  to 
the  Assembly. 

TEMPERANCE  LITERATURE 

During  the  year  the  Board  has  printed  for  the  Permanent 
Committee  on  Temperance  literature  to  the  value  of  one  thou- 
sand dollars,  for  free  distribution  among  our  churches  and 
Sabbath  schools.  In  view  of  the  importance  of  this  subject, 
the  Board  proposes,  with  the  approval  of  the  General  As- 
sembly, to  publish,  in  conjunction  with  the  Permanent  Com- 
mittee on  Temperance,  an  equal  amount  of  temperance  litera- 
ture during  the  coming  year  for  the  same  purpose.

ing of  the  General  Assembly. 


lO  SEVENTY-FIRST  ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD     [May, 


DEPARTMENT  OF  SABBATH-SCHOOL  AND 
MISSIONARY  WORK 


The  Field.  A  notable  fact  in  connection  with  the  work 
of  the  past  year  is  the  widening  of  our  field  of  operation. 
Every  State  has  had  at  least  a  part  of  the  labors  of  a  Sabbath- 
school  missionary  or  of  a  colporteur. 

The  Workers.  In  these  States  and  Territories,  the 
Board  has  had  at  work  131  Sabbath-school  missionaries  and 
30  colporteurs,  laboring  within  the  bounds  of  34  Synods  and 
127  Presbyteries.  Of  these  18  were  Synodical  and  143  were 
Presbyteria]  workers,  making  a  total  of  161. 

New  Sabbath  Schools  Organized.  They  have  organ- 
ized 781  new  Sabbath  schools  and  revived  248,  a  total  of  1,029, 
into  which  have  been  gathered  3,454  officers  and  teachers,  and 
34,698  scholars,  making  a  total  membership  of  38,152.  (See 
page  25.) 

Developing  Mission  Schools.  Our  missionaries  have 
encouraged  and  otherwise  aided  2,725  Sabbath  schools  which 
are  under  their  care.  The  membership  of  these  schools  is 
119,531. 

Work  Other  than  Organization.  These  missionaries 
have  made  111,607  visits  upon  families,  and  have  held  5,529 
evangelistic  services,  in  which  3,600  conversions  came  under 
their  observation.  Sabbath-school  institutes  and  conventions 
to  the  number  of  616  have  been  held. 

An  important  part  of  the  work  of  these  missionaries  is 
the  distribution  by  sale  and  gift  of  evangelical  literature.  In 
this  work  our  missionaries  have  sold  and  given  away  16,486 
volumes  and  1,731,834  pages  of  religious  tracts  and  periodicals. 
They  have  distributed  also,  by  gift  and  sale,  16,189  Bibles  and 


1909.]    OF  PUBLICATION  AND  SABBATH-SCHOOL  WORK.  IT 

Testaments.  (This  includes  the  Hterature  distributed  by  our 
missionary  colporteurs.) 

Churches  Developed.  The  number  of  churches  de- 
veloped by  our  Sabbath-school  missionaries  from  their  schools 
during  the  past  year  is  113,  of  which  92  are  Presbyterian  and 
21  of  other  denominations.     (See  page  26.) 

Presbyterian  Buildings.  During  the  year  78  Presby- 
terian chapels  and  church  buildings  were  erected  as  the  out- 
growth of  the  labors  of  our  Sabbath-school  missionaries.  The 
value  of  these  buildings  is  $151,775.  It  thus  becomes  apparent 
that  a  large  percentage  of  the  entire  cost  of  Sabbath-school 
Missionary  work  is  returned  to  the  Presbyterian  Church  each 
year  in  the  money  value  of  the  buildings  erected. 

Sabbath  Schools  Organized  under  the  Board's 
Offer  of  Equipment.  49  Sabbath  schools  organized  by 
other  than  Sabbath-school  missionaries,  have  thus  been  helped. 

Sabbath  Schools  Aided.  Several  hundred  mission 
Sabbath  schools  have  been  assisted,  during  the  year,  by  grants 
of  periodicals,  hymnals,  libraries  and  other  equipment. 

CLOTHING  DISTRIBUTED 

Various  Women's  Societies,  Mission  Bands  and  Sabbath 
schools  have  helped  our  missionaries  during  the  year  by  their 
generous  donations  of  new  and  second-hand  clothing,  for  dis- 
tribution among  those  who  were  in  need  of  such  assistance. 
The  shipment  of  61  boxes  and  barrels  valued  at  $2,947.70  is 
hereby  gratefully  acknowledged. 

REVIEW  OF  TWENTY-TWO  YEARS'  WORK 

During  the  period  of  twenty-two  years  since  the  Board 
was  reorganized,  1,239  Presbyterian  churches  have  grown 
from  our  mission  Sabbath  schools,  an  average  of  56  new 
Presbyterian  churches  every  year.  Other  denominations  shar- 
ing in  the  fruits  of  the  work  have  gathered  563  churches,  mak- 
ing a  total  of  1,802,  an  average  of  81  churches  each  year. 


12  SEVENTY-FIRST  ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD     [MaV. 

SYNODICAL  AND  PRESBYTERIAL  SABBATH-SCHOOL 
COMMITTEES 

Synodical  and  Presbyterial  Committees  have  been  un- 
usually active  during  the  year,  especially  in  emphasizing  the 
educational  features  of  our  Sabbath-school  work.  The  de- 
partment has  endeavored  by  every  possible  means  to  inspire 
these  Committees  to  prosecute  their  work  in  an  aggressive 
manner.  The  response  has  been  gratifying,  and  we  have  en- 
joyed the  cooperation  of  these  brethren  in  a  larger  sense  than 
ever  before.  "A  Plan  for  Presbyterial  Sabbath-School  Work," 
"What  the  Presbyterial  Committee  May  Do,"  have  proven 
helpful  to  these  Committees.  Qianges  have  been  made  in 
the  Sabbath-school  Statistical  Report  which  will  furnish  full 
information  about  every  Sabbath  school  in  the  Presbytery,  thus 
enabling  them  to  aid  each  school  according  to  its  particular 
needs. 

SUPPORT  OF  SABBATH-SCHOOL  MISSIONARIES 

Fifty-four  of  our  Sabbath-school  missionaries  are  now 
supported  wholly  or  in  part  by  special  contributions  from 
churches,  Sabbath  schools  and  individuals.  These  pledges  are 
for  amounts  varying  from  $ioo  to  $i,ooo  per  year.  It  is 
expected  that  during  the  next  year  many  more  will  be  en- 
listed in  this  movement. 

GRANTS 

The  following  grants  were  made : 

Periodicals,    books    and    tracts,    to    Sabbath    schools,    churches, 

pastors  and  missionary  workers   $9,675.87 

Bibles  as  rewards  for  memorizing  Shorter  Catechism  427.01 

Grant  of  Westminster  Teacher  to  Foreign  Mission  Stations....  402.62 

Total  $10,505.50 

Contributions  to  the  amount  of  $2,310.00  were  made 
through  the  Board  to  aid  in  the  erection  of  chapels,  and  to 
other  special  objects  as  designated  by  the  contributors.

CHILDREN'S  DAY  AND  RALLY  DAY 

Nearly  half  a  million  Children's  Day  exercises,  and  more 
than  a  quarter  of  a  million  Rally  Day  exercises,  were  used 
by  our  Sabbath  schools  last  year.  The  total  offerings  received 
from  Sabbath  schools  during  the  year  were  $79,714.45,  a  de- 
crease of  $4,966.64  from  the  previous  year.  Efforts  are  in 
progress  to  secure  larger  offerings  this  year,  and  with  the 
return  of  more  prosperous  conditions,  it  is  believed  that  a  sub- 
stantial increase  will  be  shown. 


OUR  FOREIGN  COLPORTEUR  WORK 

Thirty  colporteurs  have  labored  for  periods  of  from  three 
to  twelve  months  among  Italians,  Hungarians  (Magyars), 
Bohemians,  Ruthenians,  Slovaks,  Russians,  Poles,  Roumanians 
and  many  other  foreign  peoples  in  eleven  different  States,  as 
follows :  Delaware,  Illinois,  Indiana,  Iowa,  Maryland,  Mis- 
souri,  New  Jersey,   New  York,   Ohio,   Pennsylvania,   Texas. 

The  number  of  families  visited  in  the  course  of  their 
labors  is  33,074.  During  these  visits,  they  distributed  by  sale 
and  gift  7,645  religious  books,  and  243,291  pages  of  tracts,  be- 
sides 11,792  Bibles,  Testaments  and  portions  of  Scripture  in  at 
least  twenty  different  languages.  Their  total  sales  amounted 
to  $1,273.46.     (See  page  27.) 

Attention  is  called  to  the  fact  that  these  colporteurs  are 
not  only  book  sellers,  but  missionaries.  They  are  laying  the 
foundation  for  aggressive  missionary  effort  on  the  part  of 
Home  Mission  Committees  of  the  Presbyteries  in  which  they 
labor.  Many  of  the  mission  churches  and  Sabbath  schools 
now  in  existence  among  the  various  classes  of  foreigners  had 
their  origin  in  the  visits  of  our  colporteurs.  In  cooperation 
with  such  Committees  some  of  our  colporteurs  have  been  tem- 
porarily assigned  to  the  special  oversight  of  mission  schools 
and  to  the  holding  of  regular  services  with  congregations  that 
have  developed  from  their  labors  in  addition  to  their  work  of

visitation  during  the  week.     In  this  way  the  general  work  has 
been  strengthened. 

OUR  FOREIGN  PERIODICALS 

Bohemian  weekly,  Krestanske  Listy  ("The  Christian 
Journal").  This  paper  is  now  entering  upon  its  fourth  year. 
Beginning  with  a  circulation  of  1,000  per  week,  it  has  increased 
to  2,800  copies  weekly,  with  the  prospect  of  a  still  greater 
growth.  The  amount  received  from  subscriptions  and  adver- 
tisements is  $1,937.00,  an  increase  of  $116.83  over  the  income 
from  this  source  during  the  previous  year.  The  net  cost  of 
publishing  last  year  is  $4,845.45. 

Hungarian  (Magyar)  weekly,  Reformatusok  Lapja 
("The  Reformed  Sentinel").  This  periodical  now  has  a  cir- 
culation of  1,300  copies  per  week.  We  are  glad  to  report  that 
its  publication  has  been  carried  on  at  a  considerable  saving 
compared  with  the  amount  expended  for  this  purpose  during 
the  previous  year.  The  total  cost  last  year  was  $1,872.58, 
against  $3,166.23  the  year  previous.  The  paper  has  not  only 
been  managed  economically,  but  it  has  been  improved  in  typo- 
graphical appearance  and  many  other  ways  through  the  efficient 
and  voluntary  labor  of  the  present  manager  and  chief  editor. 
Rev.  Julius  M.  Hanko. 

Hungarian  (Magyar)  monthly  Sunday-school  magazine, 
Oromhir  ("The  Evangel").  We  are  now  printing  1,200 
copies  of  this  magazine  for  the  officers,  teachers  and  adult 
pupils  in  the  Hungarian  Sabbath  schools  connected  with  the 
Presbyterian  and  Reformed  Churches.  Under  the  manage- 
ment of  the  Rev.  A.  G.  Schodle  the  paper  has  greatly  improved 
in  appearance  and  in  the  character  of  its  contents.  In  this, 
as  well  as  in  the  publication  of  "The  Reformed  Sentinel,"  the 
Sunday-School  Board  of  the  Reformed  Church  in  the  United 
States  shares  one  third  of  the  cost.  The  net  cost  of  "The 
Evangel"  to  our  Board  last  year  was  $360.59,  against  $375.05 
during  the  previous  year. 


i 


1909.]    OF  PUBLICATION  AND  SABBATH-SCHOOL  WORK.  I5 

Our  Riithenian  monthly  paper,  Nash  a  Zyzn  ("Our 
Life"),  has  been  merged  during  the  year  into  a  weekly  pub- 
lication called  So  jus  ("Union"),  which  is  rapidly  increasing 
in  circulation,  and  by  means  of  which  a  great  deal  is  being 
accomplished  in  promoting  the  movement,  begun  among  the 
Ruthenians  themselves,  toward  Protestantism,  and  especially 
toward  Presbyterianism.  Several  of  the  leaders  in  the  move- 
ment have  invested  various  amounts  out  of  their  limited  means, 
which,  with  the  sum  already  appropriated  by  our  Board, 
have  enabled  them  to  establish  a  printing  house  for  the  pub- 
lication of  this  paper,  and  such  other  religious  tracts  and  books 
as  they  may  be  able  to  secure.  The  Home  Mission  Board  is 
also  cooperating  by  providing  the  salary  of  one  of  the  editors, 
and  in  other  ways.  Our  Board  was  the  pioneer  in  this  work 
for  Ruthenians.  It  is  a  hopeful  field,  and  although  the  results 
may  be  small  at  the  beginning,  the  outlook  for  winning  large 
numbers  of  these  people  is  exceedingly  encouraging  if  we  per- 
.sist  along  the  present  lines.  The  sum  of  $888.75  was  expended 
upon  this  work  last  year. 

Bible  picture  cards.  The  demand  for  these  cards  has 
been  so  great  that  we  have  been  compelled  to  increase  our  out- 
put to  11,000  sets  each  week.  They  are  printed  in  six  differ- 
ent languages,  Bohemian,  Polish,  Italian,  Hungarian,  Span- 
ish and  Ruthenian,  and  are  being  shipped  to  all  parts  of  the 
world,  as  well  as  being  used  extensively  among  Bohemian, 
Italian,  Hungarian  and  other  Sabbath  schools  in  our  country, 
and  by  our  colporteurs  in  their  work  among  foreigners  in 
our  own  land.  Appropriate  comments  upon  the  picture  are 
printed  on  the  back  of  each  card.  Many  letters  have  been 
received  testifying  to  the  good  accomplished  through  these 
cards  as  they  are  passed  from  one  to  another,  finally,  in 
many  cases,  finding  a  place  on  the  walls  of  the  immigrants' 
homes.  The  net  cost  of  publishing  these  cards  last  year  was 
$697.09.  The  paid  subscriptions  amounted  to  more  than 
$300. 


l6  SEVENTY-FIRST  ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD     [May, 

The  entire  amount  expended  upon  our  foreign  work  last 
year  was  $18,527.27.  The  Rally  Day  contributions  of  Sab- 
bath schools  for  this  special  work  approximate  $13,500,  a 
decrease  from  the  previous  year  of  about  $1,500. 

SHORTER  CATECHISM 

During  the  year,  663  Oxford  Bibles  have  been  presented 
as  rewards  to  Sabbath-school  pupils  who  have  committed  the 
Shorter  Catechism  to  memory  and  recited  it  without  help  to 
the  pastor  of  the  church.  A  few  years  ago  there  were  from 
two  to  three  thousand  applicants  for  this  reward  each  year. 
The  heavy  decrease  in  recent  years  doubtless  is  due  to  the 
decline  in  the  study  of  the  Catechism  throughout  the  Church. 

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS 

The  Pennsylvania  Bible  Society  has  cooperated  with  us 
in  our  foreign  work  by  assisting  in  the  support  of  three  col- 
porteurs laboring  in  the  State  of  Pennsylvania.  It  has 
generously  furnished  copies  of  the  Scriptures  to  all  of  our  Penn- 
sylvania colporteurs  as  they  were  required,  accepting  only  the 
amount  returned  for  the  copies  sold,  and  donating  those  given 
away.  We  take  this  opportunity  of  recording  our  gratitude 
and  appreciation  for  the  substantial  assistance  rendered  by 
this  Society  in  our  work  among  the  immigrant  population. 

The  American  Bible  Society,  with  its  customary  prompt- 
ness, has  continued  to  furnish  English  Bibles  and  Testaments 
for  sale  and  gift  by  our  Sabbath-school  missionaries  in  their 
visits  to  destitute  communities.  The  thanks  of  the  Board  are 
extended  to  the  officers  and  members  of  this  Society  for  their 
part  in  the  advancement  of  our  work. 

FINANCIAL 

The  adverse  conditions  that  have  prevailed  during  the 
past  year  caused  a  decrease  in  offerings,  especially  from  the 
Sabbath  schools.  The  remarkable  record  of  the  previous  year, 
which  showed  an  excess  of  $24,276.37  over  the  highest  amount 


1909.]     OF   PUBLICATION   AND   SABBATH-SCHOOL   WORK.  I7 

ever  received  in  any  single  year,  could  not  be  maintained  under 
the  existing  conditions.  The  amount  received  last  year  is 
$155,762.34,  a  decrease  of  $5,209.62  from  the  year  1907- 1908, 
but  an  increase  of  $19,066.75  over  the  total  received  during 
1 906- 1 907,  which  was  the  largest  amount  received  up  to  that 
time. 

In  addition  to  this  there  was  a  decrease  of  $11,614.29  in 
the  proportion  of  profit  received  from  the  Business  Depart- 
ment. These  decreases  made  it  necessary  to  incur  a  deficit 
of  $9,638.58,  By  exercising  strict  economy  in  every  direction, 
coupled  with  a  continuous  campaign  for  contributions,  we  have 
been  enabled  to  reduce  what  threatened  to  be  a  deficit  of  nearly 
$20,000  to  the  above  figure,  which  we  hope  can  be  disposed  of 
out  of  the  funds  of  next  year.  This  has  been  accomplished 
without  the  withdrawal  of  any  of  our  workers  from  their  fields. 

The  cost  of  administration  last  year  was  reduced  to 
$8,575.26,  or  4.5  per  cent.  This  was  entirely  covered  by  the 
proportion  of  business  profits  appropriated  by  the  Board  to 
this  work  ($13,995.94),  leaving  a  substantial  balance  to  be 
used  in  the  general  work.

l8  SEVENTY-FIRST  ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD     [May, 

SABBATH-SCHOOL  TRAINING 

Special  attention  has  been  given  during  the  past  year  to 
our  Sabbath-school  training  work  for  the  elevation  and  im- 
provement of  existing  Sabbath  schools,  and  the  results  have 
been  most  gratifying.  Pastors,  Sabbath-school  superintendents 
and  workers  everywhere  have  responded  to  our  efforts  in  a 
way  that  gives  sure  indication  that  our  Sabbath  schools  have 
felt  the  need  of  such  inspiration  and  help  as  we  are  now 
giving  them. 

Presbyterial  Sabbath-School  Committees.  Every 
available  avenue  through  which  our  efforts  for  greater  effi- 
ciency in  Sabbath-school  work  could  be  brought  to  the  atten- 
tion of  our  schools  has  been  used.  Our  Presbyterial  Sabbath- 
school  committees  have  been  provided  with  ways  and  means 
for  holding  Sabbath-school  Institutes;  special  literature  has 
been  prepared  for  their  use;  they  have  been  urged  by  fre- 
quent correspondence  to  cultivate  closer  relations  with  the 
Sabbath  schools  and  workers  throughout  their  Presbyteries, 
and  they  have  been  kept  informed  concerning  everything  new 
and  helpful  in  Sabbath-school  work.  This  has  resulted  in 
an  awakening  in  many  Presbyteries  to  a  deeper  appreciation 
of  the  importance  of  the  work  assigned  to  this  committee  and 
a  noticeable  effort  is  being  made  to  select  some  of  the  most 
aggressive  of  our  ministers  and  elders  for  the  Sabbath-school 
Committee. 

Presbyterial  Institutes.  In  a  number  of  Presbyteries 
a  Presbyterial  Sabbath-school  Association  has  been  formed 
and  a  Sabbath-school  Institute  held  in  connection  with  the 
meeting  of  the  Presbytery.  These  Institutes  have  been  a  means 
of  inspiration  and  education  to  the  schools  represented. 

Synodical  Institutes.  Many  of  our  Synods  now  hold 
a  Sabbath-school  Institute  on  the  day  preceding  the  meeting 
of  the  Synod.  Encouraging  reports  come  to  us  concerning 
these  Institutes.  Our  Board  is  glad  to  recall  the  fact  that  this 
movement  was  begun  by  our  own  Synodical  Sabbath-school 


1909-]    OF  PUBLICATION  AND  SABBATH-SCHOOL  WORK,  I9 

missionaries.     Its  helpfulness  is  now  recognized  and  the  plan 
is  being  generally  adopted. 

Literature.  A  most  effective  method  of  spreading  in- 
formation and  giving  helpful  suggestions  to  our  Sabbath- 
school  workers  is  through  the  printed  page.  This  method 
supplements  the  Institute  work  of  our  Sabbath-school  mis- 
sionaries and  Presbyterial  committees.  During  the  year  the 
following  manuals  have  been  issued,  of  which  about  6,000 
copies  have  been  sold : 

"The  Adult  Bible  Class :  Its  Organization  and  Work,"  by  W.  C.  Pearce, 
Superintendent  of  Adult  Department  International  Sunday  School  Associ- 
tion.     25  cents,  postpaid. 

"What  a  Superintendent  Can  Do,"  by  Philip  E.  Howard.  10  cents, 
postpaid. 

"The  Sunday  School  Graded:  Why?  What?  How?"  by  A.  H. 
McKinne}'.     10  cents,  postpaid. 

"Special  Days  in  the  Sunday  School,"  by  Allan  Sutherland.  10  cents, 
postpaid. 

"The  Sunday  School  in  the  Country,"  by  John  T.  Paris.  10  cents, 
postpaid. 

"The  Teacher-Training  Class,"  by  Franklin  McElfresh,  D.  D.  10  cents, 
postpaid. 

Other  manuals  uniform  in  size  with  the  above  dealing  with 
various  phases  of  Sabbath-school  work  are  in  course  of  prepa- 
ration. In  addition  our  Sabbath-School  Department  has  is- 
sued the  following  leaflets,  which  are  freely  distributed,  and 
for  which  there  has  been  a  large  demand,  more  than  100,000 
being  distributed.  Others  will  appear  during  the  next  few 
months. 

"Training  the  Sunday-School  Teacher." 

"The  Organized  Adult  Bible  Class." 

"The  Home  Department." 

"The  Elementary  Grades  of  the  Sunday  School." 

"Missions  in  the  Sabbath  School." 

"Plans  for  Increasing  Sunday- School  Membership." 

In  January  a  special  four-page  "Bulletin"  was  published 
for  the  use  of  pastors,  containing  suggestions  of  practical  value 
to  the  pastor  concerning  the  work  of  the  Sabbath  school. 
This  effort  met  with  an  enthusiastic  response.     Numerous  let-

tion of  this  character. 

Sabbath-School  Missionaries.  During  the  year  our 
Sabbath-school  missionaries  have  held  616  Sabbath-school 
Institutes,  239  of  which  were  for  the  benefit  of  mission 
Sabbath    schools   and   377    for   church    Sabbath    schools.      At

these  Institutes  a  total  of  2,092  Sabbath  schools  were  repre- 
sented. This  has  become  an  important  part  of  the  work  of  our 
Sabbath-school  missionaries.  Instead  of  giving  their  time  to 
the  care  of  struggling  churches  during  the  period  when  it  is  not 
possible  to  organize  new  work,  our  Sabbath-school  mission- 
aries now  devote  that  time  to  the  visitation  of  schools,  holding 


1909.]    OF  PUBLICATION  AND  SABBATH-SCHOOL  WORK.  21 

conferences  of  officers  and  teachers,  arranging  Sabbath-school 
Institutes  and  to  such  other  phases  of  advanced  Sabbath-school 
work  as  it  may  be  necessary  to  emphasize. 

Our  Synodical  and  district  superintendents  have  arranged 
and  successfully  carried  out  Sabbath-school  Institute  tours  in 
New  York,  Indiana,  Ohio,  West  Virginia,  Minnesota,  Wis- 
consin, Iowa,  Kansas,  Missouri  and  elsewhere,  during  which 
meetings  have  been  held  in  scores  of  towns  and  cities  and 
various  Sabbath-school  problems  discussed. 

It  is  obvious  that  the  efficient  carrying  out  of  our  present 
policy  to  emphasize  intensive  work  for  existing  schools,  as 
well  as  extensive  work  for  the  gathering  in  of  those  outside 
the  Sabbath  school,  depends  very  largely  upon  our  Sabbath- 
school  missionaries.  The  power  of  the  personal  visit,  and 
the  encouragement  and  stimulus  that  are  thus  given  to  the 
Sabbath-school  workers,  are  incalculable.  This  is  a  most  hope- 
ful aspect  of  our  work,  and  it  goes  hand  in  hand  with  our 
labors  for  the  organization  of  new  schools  in  needy  localities. 
Its  importance  becomes  increasingly  manifest. 

TEACHER  TRAINING 

In  1905,  some  four  years  ago,  the  Presbyterian  Churches, 
North  and  South,  the  Cumberland  Presbyterian  Church,  the 
Reformed  Church  in  the  United  States  and  the  United  Pres- 
byterian Church  united  in  the  preparation  of  a  teacher-train- 
ing course.  This  was  entitled  "The  Westminster  Teacher 
Training  Course,"  and  consisted  of  two  volumes — the  first  and 
second  year. 

Many  of  our  Sunday  schools  have  used  this  course  and 
found  it  of  great  service  in  the  preparation  of  their  teachers 
for  their  responsible  and  difficult  duties. 

As  the  work  of  teacher  training  developed  and  the  vari- 
ous denominations  began  to  prepare  books  for  this  purpose, 
it  was  seen  that  it  would  be  necessary  to  have  some  under- 
standing upon  this  subject,  and  that  it  would  be  wise  to  estab-

lish    a    standard    to    whicr/i    teacher-training    courses    should 
conform. 

Accordingly  a  conference  u^f  the  representatives  of  the 
leading  denominations  and  of  the  Cc-immittee  on  Education  of 
the  International  Sunday  School  Assoc^jation  was  held  in  the 
Witherspoon  Building,  Philadelphia. 

At  this  conference  it  was  agreed  that  a  standard  teacher- 
training  course  should  consist  of  not  less  th^an  fifty  lessons, 
of  which  at  least  twenty  should  be  devoted  to  t.he  study  of  the 
Bible,  and  at  least  seven  each  to  the  study  of  the  i^upil,  teacher 
and  the  Sunday  school.  t 

It  was  also  agreed  that  this  course  should  be  regarded  as 
a  two-years'  course,  and  that  "in  no  case  should  a  d.iploma  be 
granted  for  its  completion  in  less  than  one  year." 

It  was  at  once  evident  that  "The  Westminster  Teacher 
Training  Course"  did  not  meet  the  requirements  of  the^  stand- 
ard. It  was  necessary,  therefore,  to  revise  the  former  course 
or  prepare  an  entirely  new  one. 

The  Board  had  the  matter  under  consideration  for  quite 
a  length  of  time,  and  finally  decided  to  ask  the  Rev.  Char  les  A, 
Oliver,  Teacher  Training  Superintendent  of  the  State  Sabbath- 
school  Association,  to  prepare  a  new  course  of  study.  \  Mr. 
Oliver  is  a  Presbyterian  minister  who  has  been  remarki^blv 
successful  in  his  supervision  of  the  teacher-training  work  of 
the  Pennsylvania  State  Association.  His  experience  in  this 
work  has  qualified  him  to  prepare  a  course  which  will  meet 
the  requirements  of  those  who  are  desirous  of  fitting  the-ni- 
selves  to  be  Sunday-school  teachers. 

In  offering  to  our  Sunday  schools  this  new  course,  the 
Board  feels  that  it  is  putting  within  their  reach  a  valuable  and 
helpful  book,  which  will  be  to  those  who  make  use  of  i^t,  as 
its  name  indicates,  a  "Preparation  for  Teaching."

DEPARTMENT    OF    YOUNG     PEOPLE'S     WORK 


The  following  is  a  brief  statement  of  the  many  activities 
carried  on  by  the  Department  of  Young  People's  Work  be- 
tween April  ist,  1908,  and  April  ist,  1909: 

1.  For  the  purpose  of  assisting  and  interesting  pastors 
19,000  circular  letters  and  19,000  leaflets  were  sent  out  at  vari- 
ous times  free  of  charge.  One  publication,  entitled  "Organi- 
zation for  Young  People"  was  prepared  to  serve  as  a  manual 
of  information  concerning  many  kinds  of  societies  and 
methods  suited  to  the  needs  of  the  average  parish.  In  re- 
sponse to  a  single  appeal  this  spring  hundreds  of  churches 
held  special  services  on  February  7th  in  behalf  of  young- 
people's  work.  Thirteen  hundred  dollars  were  contributed  by 
389  societies  to  the  support  of  the  Department. 

2.  Presbyterial  Committees  on  Young  People's  Work 
were  kept  in  close  touch  with  headquarters  by  frequent  letters 
and  leaflets.  Through  their  cooperation  the  Department's  ac- 
tivities along  several  lines  were  strengthened,  and  in  addition 
upward  of  50  conventions  were  planned  and  held  in  various 
parts  of  the  country. 

3.  The  assistance  of  the  Synodical  Committees  on  Young 
People's  Work  was  likewise  secured. 

4.  Approximately  15,000,000  copies  of  our  various  reli- 
gious papers  had  articles  in  them  from  the  department  head- 
quarters. This  means  that  all  of  the  leading  papers  of  the 
denomination  were  used.     We  give  them  hearty  thanks. 

5.  On  our  roll  of  Forward  Movement  leaders  we  have 
nearly  2,000  names.  One  hundred  and  forty  thousand  leaflets 
and  programs  of  30  different  kinds  were  printed  for  the  bene- 
fit of  these  young  people. 


24  SEVENTY- FIRST  ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD     [May, 

6.  Thirty  thousand  five  hundred  leaflets,  12,500  pro- 
grams and  24,000  circular  letters  were  used  in  an  effort  to 
benefit  all  young  people's  organizations  by  direct  corre- 
spondence. 

7.  Through  the  Information  Bureau  the  needs  of  hun- 
dreds of  societies  were  met.  Information  concerning  13 
different  organizations  was  furnished.  On  Christian  En- 
deavor methods  leaflets  dealing  with  33  different  subjects 
were  printed.  Approximately  2,400  letters  were  dictated.  A 
large  exhibit  of  literature  gathered  from  many  sources  and 
for  use  in  all  kinds  of  young  people's  work  was  prepared  and 
set  up  for  inspection  at  headquarters. 

8.  A  Summer  Conference  or  School  of  Methods  was  held 
at  Winona  Lake,  Indiana,  and  two  similar  conferences  were 
planned  for  the  coming  season. 

9.  Institutes  and  special  services  were  held  by  the  superin- 
tendent in  16  different  states.  Approximately  17,000  miles 
were  covered  in  his  travels. 

•  10.  Several   hundred  societies   adopted   our  plan  of  ten 
minute  supplemental  drills  on  Church  history,  etc. 

11.  The  Individual  Study  Course  was  promoted. 

12.  The  Department  cooperated  with  the  Boards  of  Home 
and  Foreign  Missions  by  circulating  their  mission  study  an- 
nouncements. It  likewise  aided  the  Assembly's  Permanent 
Committee  on  Temperance  in  bringing  its  literature  to  public 
notice. 

13.  Through  the  cooperation  of  the  Sabbath-school  mis- 
sionaries many  new  organizations  were  formed  and  old  ones 
assisted. 

14.  In  all  180,000  leaflets  were  printed  on  39  different  sub- 
jects. Fifty-two  thousand  circular  letters,  10,000  report  blanks, 
18,000  cards  and  19,500  programs  for  special  meetings  were 
used.  The  total  number  of  pages  of  printed  matter  circulated 
during  the  year,  exclusive  of  articles  in  the  rehgious  press,  is 
1,001,500.

Running  parallel  with  the  Beginners'  Lessons  is  a  series 
of  Supplemental  Beginners'  Lessons,  which  are  to  take  the 
place  of  the  formal  opening  exercises  used  in  the  other  depart- 
ments of  the  school.  This  Supplemental  Course,  which  covers 
a  period  of  ten  months,  only,  includes  a  series  of  lessons  for 
the  teacher,  published  in  pamphlet  form,  elaborating  the  Sup- 
plemental Lessons,  and  a  series  of  large  pictures  for  use  in 
teaching  the  Supplemental  Lessons  (7x9  inches  in  size). 
For  the  pupil  there  are  small  cards  to  be  distributed  the  last

NEW  GRADED  LESSONS  FOR  ELEMENTARY  DEPARTMENTS 

We  shall  begin  to  publish  in  October  new  courses  of  les- 
sons for  elementary  grades — Beginners',  Primary  and  Junior 
Departments,  as  provided  for  by  the  International  Sunday 
School  Association,  These  lessons  will  not  displace  the  regu- 
lar uniform  lessons,  but  are  offered  to  all  schools  which  desire 
to  use  them.  For  the  Beginners,  there  is  a  course  of  two 
years,  for  the  Primary  Department,  above  the  Beginners',  a 
course  of  three  years  and  for  the  Junior  Grade  a  course  of 
four  years.  These  new  courses  will  be  furnished  in  Quarterly 
form.  It  is  believed  that  many  schools  will  accept  the  oppor- 
tunity of  at  once  introducing  these  new  lessons  prepared 
specially  for  the  younger  children,  and  that  ultimately  they 
will  come  into  universal  use. 


42  SEVENTY-FIRST  ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD     [May, 

ILLUSTRATED  PAPERS 

Forzvard  still  continues  to  grow  in  interest,  as  its  increas- 
ing weekly  circulation,  now  fully  reaching  three  hundred  thou- 
sand, attests.  It  is  freely  conceded  that  no  paper  in  the  country 
for  young  people  surpasses  Forward  in  interest  and  popularity. 
It  is  filled  every  week  with  choicest  things  for  its  readers. 
The  best  short  story,  and  other,  writers  for  young  people  are 
among  its  contributors.  From  readers  of  all  ages  the  most  ap- 
preciative commendations  are  received  continually.  While 
intended  primarily  for  older  classes  in  Sunday  schools,  For- 
zvard is  adapted  also  for  young  people  in  the  home,  the  school 
and  everywhere.  It  has  a  Christian  Endeavor  Department, 
with  brief  notes  on  the  weekly  topics,  and  contains  articles 
from  time  to  time  on  the  work  of  the  young  people's  societies. 
The  low  price  at  which  Forzvard  is  furnished  brings  it  within 
the  reach  of  all.  In  clubs  it  costs  less  than  one  cent  a  number. 
Single  subscriptions,  a  year,  75  cents;  subscriptions  for  two 
or  more  copies  in  the  same  wrapper,  addressed  to  one  person, 
50  cents  a  year. 

The  Sabbath-School  Visitor  is  one  of  the  oldest  of  the 
periodicals  of  the  Board,  but  is  always  bright  and  interesting. 
It  is  adapted  to  a  younger  class  of  readers  than  Forzvard.  It 
is  an  illustrated  four-page  paper,  each  number  containing 
attractive  and  valuable  matter.  It  is  published  weekly.  Single 
subscriptions,  per  year,  50  cents;  school  subscriptions,  to  one 
address,  30  cents. 

Beginning  with  October  i  of  this  year  important  changes 
will  be  made  in  The  Visitor.  The  size  of  its  pages  will  be 
enlarged.  In  contents  it  will  be  brightened  and  made  more 
attractive  in  every  way.  Then  the  name  will  be  changed  to 
The  Comrade.     The  price  of  subscription  will  be  the  same. 

The  Morning  Star  is  issued  to  meet  the  demand  in  some 
schools  for  a  paper  at  small  cost.     It  is  of  the  same  quality.

issued  every  week.  Single  subscriptions,  25  cents  a  year; 
school  subscriptions,  to  one  address,  15  cents. 

The  Sunbeam  is  a  four-page  weekly  illustrated  paper  for 
very  little  people.  It  is  attractive  not  only  in  its  appearance, 
but  also  in  its  contents.  No  subscriptions  are  taken  for  less 
than  one  month.  Single  subscriptions,  30  cents  a  year ;  school 
subscriptions,  to  one  address,  20  cents  a  year  for  each  pupil.

credit  sales,  do  not  agree  with  the  Treasurer's  account,  which

includes  cash  received  for  the  sales  of  the  current  year,  and

REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD  OF  PUBLICATION 
OF  THE  CUMBERLAND  PRESBY- 
TERIAN CHURCH 


The  volume  of  Imsinoss  of  the  Publishing  Iiou.se  the  past  year  was  about 
normal,  notwithstanding  the  eflects  of  the  financial  depression  of  the  pre- 
ceding year  on  the  earlier  months.  In  fact,  impro\ement  in  conditions  be- 
came sufficiently  pronounced  toward  the  close  of  the  year  to  bring  the  total 
in  line  with  the  results  of  the  greatest  j'ears  in  the  history  of  the  House. 
The  entire  volume  of  business  was  .$170,464.n(i,  whicli  was  .t3ri;U.'24  below 
the  greatest  year  on  record,  and  $850.10  below  tlie  second,  the  year  under 
review  raiiking  third. 

Those  conversant  witli  the  work  of  publication  need  not  be  reminded 
that  the  fiscal  year  ending  March  .Si,  ]!)00,  although  a  period  of  a  dis- 
tinct measure  of  recuperation,  was  as  much  })elow  the  corres]>onding  periods 
in  the  j'ears  1004,  1905  and  1906  in  its  business  possibilities  as  it  was  above 
the  year  ending  March  31,  1908.  Publishers  have  realized,  too,  that  the 
beginning  and  close  of  the  past  biisiness  year  were  entirely  diU'erent  from 
each  other  in  business  character — the  dill'erence  being  so  positive  as  to 
create  bright  hopes  for  the  future.  This  lias  been  the  experience  of  those  in 
charge  of  the  Publishing  Housi'  in  the  last  twelve  months. 

It  has  not  been  a  year  of  great  profit,  although  the  returns  show  sub- 
stantial improvement  over  those  of  the  preceding  year.

It  has  seemed  to  be  necessary  in  the  past  year  to  extend  to  some  of  the 
leading  patrons  of  the  House  an  imusual  line  of  credit.  This  has  b^en  done 
only  on  being  thoroughly  satisfied  of  the  safety  and  wisdom  of  the  pro- 
ceeding. As  a  result  of  this  there  is  an  increase  of  $6,920.60  in  liabilities 
over  tlwse  of  the  preceding  year.  It  will  be  seen,  though,  that  bills  and 
accounts  receivable  are  $11,310.08  greater  than  a  year  ago,  with  an  increase 
of  $1,230.00  in  the  cash  on  hand;  or  $12,540.08  in  all,  which  if  applied 
would  bring  the  liabilities  down  to  $32,231.71,  or  $5,619.48  less  than  a 
year  ago.  Funds  will  be  applied  to  this  purpose  as  they  become  available. 
Of  the  debt,  $20,500.00  is  in  five-percent  bonds,  and  the  remainder  is  in 
bills  and  a-ccounts  payable  and  employees'  savings  fund. 

THE   CUMBERLANO   PRESBYTERIAN. 

At  the  opening  of  the  business  year  a  new  postal  regulation,  to  the  eflect 
that  delinquent  subscribers  to  a  weekly  paper  could  not  be  continued  for 
more  than  a  year,  cut  a  total  of  1,888  names  ofli'  the  list.  This  reduced  the 
circulation  to  less  than  for  a  number  of  years.  A  part  of  this  loss  has  been 
recovered,  and  arrangements  recently  made  for  field  work  indicate  a  further 
increase  in  circulation  in  the  next  few  months.  The  claim  can  justly  be 
made  for  The  Cumberland  Preshyterian  that  it  is  one  of  the  most  eco- 
nomically publislied  of  all  the  religious  papers  of  national  circulation.  Its 
profit  the  past  year  was  $1,571.58. 

SUNDAY  SCHOOL  TERIODICALS. 

A  slight  increase  in  the  volume  of  business  in  Sunday  school  periodicals 
was  reported  for  the  year  closing  March  31,  1908.  There  has  been  a  more 
pronounced  growth  in  the  year  immediately  past.  The  improvement  is 
most  gratifying,  and  the  outlook  is  still  more  promising.  The  profit  of  the 
year  was  $2,460.42. 

BOOK  DEPARTMENT. 

It  is  doubtful  whether  there  would  be  an  appreciable  number  of  denom- 
inational bookstores  extant  if  money-making  were  the  main  object  of  their 
existence.  These  stores  exist  because  of  the  necessary  work  which*  devolves 
upon  them,  and  financial  returns  are  a  secondary  consideration.  The  book 
business  of  the  Publishing  House  is  healthy,  wholesome  and  safe,  and  fully 
self-sustaining.  The  business  of  the  past  year  shows  some  growth,  with  a 
profit    of   barely   $190.69.      If   this   branch   of   the   work,   as   well    as   other 


(4) 

branches,  were  sustained  at  a  loss,  the  work  would  be  none  the  less  justi- 
fiable and  essential. 

GENERAL   PRIMING   DEPARTMENT. 

It  was  in  this  department  that  the  effects  of  the  financial  panic  of  1907 
and  the  succeeding  months  were  most  felt.  The  House  was  fortunate  in 
having  no  losses  of  consequence  because  of  the  financial  failure  of  patrons, 
but  business  was  quite  restricted  for  a  time,  both  in  volume  and  in  profit. 
There  has  been  an  almost  total  recovery  in  volume,  and  profit  shows  an 
increase  of  29 '/^  per  cent  over  the  i)receding  year,  with  every  indication 
of  further  improvement. 

The  equipment  of  machinery  and  fixtures  is  so  complete  that  very  slight 
investment  from  time  to  time  will  suffice  to  keep  the  plant  up  to  date. 
There  are  few  plants  in  the  South  so  good  for  its  special  lines  of  work, 
and  none  better.  Reference  has  been  made  before  to  the  high  character  and 
efficiency  of  the  employees  of  the  House  in  every  department,  and  it  is  only 
just  to  repeat  with  emphasis  and  encomiums  that  have  heretofore  been 
pronounced.

THIRTY-NINTH  ANNUAL  REPORT 

OF    THE 

Board  of  the  Church  Erection  Fund. 


To  the  General  Assembly  of  the 

Presbyterian  Church  in  the   United  States  of  America: 

Grateful  for  the  progress  permitted  during  the  year,  the  Board 
of  the  Church  Erection  Fund  respectfully  presents  its  Thirty- 
ninth*  Annual  Report  as  follows: 

The  opening  of  the  year  was  saddened  by  the  sudden  and 
tragic  death  of  one  of  the  most  active  and  useful  members  of 
the  Board,  Elder  George  E.  Sterry,  who  was  taken  away  May 
19,  1908.  The  Board  expressed  its  sorrow  and  its  appreciation 
of  the  long  service  of  Mr.  Sterry  in  the  following  Minute  adopted 
June  15,  1908: 

"The  Board  is  again  called  upon  to  mourn  the  loss  of  one 
of  its  most  active  and  efficient  members,  Mr.  George  E.  Sterry, 
by  whose  sudden  death  May  19,  1908,  a  vacancy  is  left  in  its 
ranks  which  it  will  be  hard  to  fill. 

"Mr.  Sterry  became  a  member  of  the  Board  in  1892,  and 
immediately  manifested  a  wise  and  intelligent  interest  in  its 
work,  which  continued  unfailingly  until  his  death,  which  oc- 
curred upon  the  day  following  a  stated  meeting  of  the  Board  at 
which  he  was  present  in  full  health  and  vigor.  As  a  member 
of  the  Loan  and  Finance  Committees  he  rendered  distinguished 
service  by  a  zealous  and  unremitting  care  of  the  interests  of  the 
Board  and  a  prudence  in  husbanding  and  safeguarding  its  funds 
which  commanded  the  highest  respect  and  confidence  of  his  col- 
leagues in  office. 

"Occupying  also  many  other  influential  positions  in  the  organ- 
ized activities  of  Christian  work  and  always  proving  himself 
alert  and  faithful  in  oversight,  prompt  and  clear  in  counsel, 
courteous   and   considerate  in   discussion,   his   sudden  removal 


♦The  work  was  inaugurated  by  the  General  Assembly  fO.  S.]  in  1844;  the  Board 
[N.  S.]  was  incorporated  in  1855;  the  two  Boards  were  united  in  1870,  from  which  year 
this  present  report  numbers. 


4  ANNUAL    REPORT. 

in  the  prime  of  life  and  strength  imposes  a  loss  upon  the  entire 
Church  which  can  hardly  be  overestimated. 

"The  Board  in  entering  upon  its  Minutes  this  tribute  of  its 
respect  and  affection  directs  that  an  engrossed  copy  be  sent  to 
Mr.  Sterry's  family,  with  the  assurance  of  its  profound  sympathy 
in  their  irreparable  loss." 

VV^ithin  four  months  the  Board  was  again  suddenly  bereaved 
by  the  death  of  Elder  Henry  T.  Bronson  on  September  2,  1908. 

At  its  meeting  upon  the  21st  of  the  same  month  the  Board 
expressed  its  sense  of  loss  in  the  following  resolution : 

"The  Board  of  Church  Erection  is  for  the  third  time  this  year 
called  upon  to  mourn  the  loss  of  one  of  its  members.  In  the 
sudden  death  at  Rye,  N.  Y.,  upon  September  2,  of  Mr.  Henry 
T.  Bronson,  it  is  not  only  deprived  of  services  unusualty  valuable, 
but  its  members  are  bereaved  of  a  beloved  colleague  and  friend. 

"Mr.  Bronson,  a  native  of  Connecticut,  came  in  early  life  to 
New  York  and  entered  upon  a  successful  business  career,  in 
which  he  manifested  qualities  of  ability,  wisdom  and  integrity 
w^hich  secured  the  respect  of  all  with  whom  he  was  associated, 
while  his  interest  in  philanthropic  and  religious  matters  gave 
him  a  prominent  place  in  the  Presbj^terian  Church,  of  which  he 
was  a  lifelong  member  and  for  many  years  an  elder.  He  became 
a  member  of  this  Board  in  1902,  and  from  that  date  took  an  earn- 
est and  active  part  in  its  management,  being  at  the  time  of  his 
death  a  member  of  its  Finance  Committee.  Regular  and 
punctual  in  his  attendance  upon  its  meetings,  wise  in  counsel  and 
courteous  in  his  bearing,  he  so  endeared  himself  to  all  of  his 
colleagues  that  his  departure  leaves  a  sad  vacancy  in  ranks 
so  sorely  depleted  since  the  opening  of  the  year.  Realizing 
keenly  its  loss,  the  Board  directs  that  an  engrossed  copy  of  this 
Minute  be  sent  to  the  family  of  Mr.  Bronson,  with  the  assurance 
of  the  respectful  sympathy  of  his  fellow-members.  " 

Looking  back  over  the  year  it  may  be  said  that  the  Board, 
with  an  ever-increasing  appreciation  of  the  importance  of  the 
work  committed  to  it  and  a  growing  sense  of  the  responsibility 
involved,  has  gone  forward,  maintaining  to  the  best  of  its  ability 
the  methods  and  measures  which  the  Assembly  in  its  wisdom 
has  formulated  for  its  guidance. 

These  are  rendered  the  more  necessary  as  the  constant  growth 
of  the  Church  and  the  extension  of  its  bounds  into  the  more 
sparsely  settled  regions  of  the  country  require  a  careful  husband- 
ing of  the  resources  of  the  Board  and  careful  discrimination  in 
their  distribution. 

The  year  has  been  full  of  encouragement.  As  it  opened  at  a 
time  of  widespread  financial  embarrassment  and  business  depres- 


CHURCH   ERECTION.  O 

sion,  it  was  feared  that  these  would  be  reflected  in  a  serious 
check  upon  the  progress  of  the  Church,  as  indicated  in  church 
erection,  and  a  marked  falHng  off  in  the  abihty  of  the  Board  to 
foster  the  advance;  but  the  result  has  not  justified  these  appre- 
hensions. 

While  it  is  doubtless  true  that  the  financial  depression  to  which 
reference  has  been  made,  and  which  has  continued  unabated 
through  the  year,  has  to  some  extent  affected  the  advance  in 
church  building,  it  is  gratifying  to  be  able  to  report  that  the 
number  of  appHcations  nearly  equaled  the  uniisual  number 
received  in  the  previous  year,  and  the  appropriations,  including 
both  grants  and  loans,  were  acttially  more  and  to  a  larger 
amount,  the  advance,  however,  being  in  the  department  of 
loans. 

This  unexpected  result  clearly  indicates  the  unabated  vitality 
and  faith  of  the  Church. 

Applications. 

The  total  number  of  churches  sending  in  applications  was 
285,  amounting  in  the  aggregate  to  a  demand  of  $294,743.  It 
is  somewhat  significant,  and  perhaps  indicative  of  an  advance 
in  abihty  for  self-support,  that  the  sUght  falling  off  indicated 
above  was  practically  in  the  request  for  grants  for  church  build- 
ings, and  not  in  the  applications  for  loans  either  for  church 
edifices  or  manses. 

These  applications  were  distributed  as  follows:

as  came  within  its  sphere  and  within  the  conditions  established 
by  the  General  Assembly  for  its  administration. 

The  total  amount  is  larger  by  $11,016.52  than  last  year, 
and  it  is  gratifying  to  report  that  the  offerings  of  the  churches, 
which  supply  so  large  a  part  of  its  income,  were  $2,071.36 
more,  and  that  the  number  of  contributing  churches  also  shows

Appropriations. 

Appropriations  to  a  greater  or  less  extent  have  been  made 
this  year  from  all  of  our  funds.  In  giving  the  figures  from  each, 
attention  is  called  to  the  fact  that  from  three  of  them,  viz.,  the 
General,  the  Buell  and  the  Van  Meter,  grants  are  made  under 
the  same  conditions,  although  from  the  latter  two  with  restric- 
tions as  to  territory:  the  Buell  Fund  being  confined  to  churches 


CHURCH   ERECTION.  7 

west  of  the  Mississippi  and  the  Van  Meter  to  such  as  are  within 
the  bounds  of  West  Jersey  Presbytery. 

1.  General  Fund. — From  this  fund  there  have  been  126 
grants  aggregating  $80,910.14  and  23  loans  without  interest 
amounting  to  $15,600,  a  total  of  149  appropriations  aggregating 
$96,5  ro.14;  but  as  three  churches  received  both  loans  and  grants, 
the  number  of  churches  aided  from  this  fund  was  146. 

2.  The  Buell  Fund. — From  this  fund,  derived  from  a  legacy, 
and  treated  as  supplemental  to  the  General  Fund,  there  were  14 
grants  to  the  amount  of  $10,800  and  one  loan  of  $500,  a  total  of 
$11,300;  but  as  one  church  received  both  grant  and  loan,  the 
churches  aided  number  14. 

3.  The  Vaji  Meter  Fund.— From  this  small  fund,  confined  in 
use  to  the  Presbytery  of  West  Jersey,  one  grant  of  $400  was 
made. 

As  these  three  above  reported  represent  practically  the  work 
of  the  Board  as  originally  defined,  viz.,  the  aiding  of  "feeble 
churches  in  the  erection  of  inexpensive  buildings,"  we  may  prop- 
erly unite  their  figures  as  indicating  the  results  of  the  year's 
work  within  its  original  sphere.  So  doing,  we  find  the  number 
of  grants  to  be  141,  aggregating  $92,110.14,  and  of  loans  24, 
aggregating  $16,100,  making  a  total  of  165  appropriations  and 
$108,210.14,  and,  deducting  repetitions,  161  churches  aided. 

4.  The  Loan  Fund.— This  fund,  it  will  be  remembered,  is 
available  by  the  permission  of  the  General  Assembly  allowing 
certain  trust  funds  in  the  hands  of  the  Board  to  be  invested  in 
loans  at  a  low  rate  of  interest  to  a  class  of  churches  which  from 
their  size  and  strength  do  not  come  properly  within  the  sphere 
of  the  General  Fund. 

From  this  fund  there  have  been  30  loans  amounting  in  the 
aggregate  to  $88,400,  an  advance  in  amount  over  last  year 
of  eight  in  number  and  of  $27,900  or  of  45  per  cent,  in  amount. 
The  investment  of  this  fund,  with  the  annual  appropriations  and 
returns  for  the  seventeen  years  since  its  inauguration,  may  be 
seen  in  the  table  upon  the  following  page. 

5.  The  Manse  Fund. — From  this  fund,  originally  endowed  by 
Mrs.  Robert  L.  Stuart,  and  from  which  loans  without  interest, 
and  occasionally  under  exceptional  circumstances  small  grants, 
are  made  to  assist  in  building  manses,  there  have  been  fifty 
loans  amounting  to  $24,310.  The  loans  exceed  those  of  last 
year  by  seven  in  number  and  $3,610  in  amount. 

6.  The  Raynolds  Fund. — This  fund,  derived  from  a  bequest

CHURCH   ERECTION.  » 

of  the  late  General  William  F.  Raynolds,  of  Detroit,  is  by  the 
terms  of  his  will  to  be  loaned  at  a  low  rate  of  interest  to  churches 
needing  aid  in  building  manses  to  a  larger  extent  than  can  be 
rendered  without  interest  from  the  General  Manse  Fund.  While 
interest  is  charged,  a  longer  period  is  allowed  in  which  install- 
ments may  be  paid  From  it  twenty  loans  were  promised  to  the 
aggregate  amount  of  $19,250.  As  the  applications  to  this  fund 
have  exceeded  its  resources  it  is  now  all  in  use,  and  several 
appropriations  have  been  voted  only  to  be  advanced  as  funds, 
accruing  from  the  return  of  installments  on  previous  loans,  will 
permit.  The  appropriations  exceed  those  of  last  year  by  eight 
in  number  and  $4,950  in  amount. 

7.  The  Hoyt  Fund. — From  this  fund,  the  proceeds  of  a  be- 
quest from  the  late  Dr.  Ezra  P.  Hoyt,  to  be  used  under  terms 
similar  to  those  of  the  Raynolds  Fund,  one  loan  of  $1,500  was 
made. 

8.  The  Stuart  Fund. — From  this  special  fund,  to  be  used  at  the 
discretion  of  the  Board,  one  small  additional  grant  of  $50  was 
made  to  a  church  in  Cuba. 

9.  The  Barber  Fund. — This  is  a  fund  to  be  used  only  for 
colored  churches  and  for  such  as  are  not  under  the  care  of  the 
Board  of  Missions  for  Freedmen.  Such  churches  are  almost 
entirely  in  our  Northern  States;  also  almost  without  exception 
in  our  large  cities;  and  moreover  are,  as  might  be  expected, 
composed  of  congregations  with  very  scanty  pecuniary  means. 
It  follows  that  while  the  expense  of  land  and  building  is  at  a 
maximum,  the  ability  of  the  people  is  at  a  minimum.  There- 
fore if  any  effective  aid  is  to  be  given,  it  must  be  on  a  scale 
relatively  much  larger  than  that  afforded  to  churches  applying 
to  the  General  Fund  of  the  Board.  The  principal  of  this  fund 
is  held  by  the  Trustees  of  the  General  Assembly,  and  the  annual 
income  allotted  to  this  Board  is  about  $3,000. 

As  thus  far  the  number  of  churches  coming  under  the  terms  of 
the  bequest  and  applying  to  the  Board  has  not  been  unduly  large, 
and  as  the  Board  in  its  administration  of  the  Fund  has  been 
allowed  large  liberty,  it  has  been  able  by  liberal  grants  and  loans 
to  give  substantial  aid  to  this  class  of  our  fellow-Christians. 
There  have  been  three  grants  for  church  buildings  aggregating 
$2,900,  and  to  one  of  the  churches  also  a  loan  of  $1,000 — a  total 
of  $3,900.  Two  churches  have  been  aided  in  procuring  manses, 
one  by  a  grant  of  $1,000  and  one  by  a  grant  of  $2,000 — an 
aggregate  of  $3,000. 


10  ANNUAL   RKPORT. 

In  addition  a  temporary  loan  of  $6,700  was  made  to  the  Pres- 
bytery of  Jersey  City  to  enable  it  to  transfer  its  La  Fayette  Street 
(colored)  Church  to  a  more  eligible  site,  the  loan  to  be  returned 
to  the  fund  without  interest  as  soon  as  the  transaction  was 
completed  and  the  original  property  sold.  The  entire  draft  for 
the  year  upon  this  fund  was  therefore  $13,600,  of  which  nearly 
one-half  will  come  back  to  the  Board  probably  within  a  few 
months. 

Summary. 

In  order  to  give  a  bird's-eye  view  of  the  year's  results  as  indi- 
cated by  the  appropriations,  the  following  tabular  statement 
is  presented:

Totals   272  $257,546.96 

The  total  of  grants  and  loans,  although  deducting  the  tempo- 
rary loan  of  $6,700,  exceeds  the  previous  year's  total  by  four 
and  by  $25,683.14. 

As  indicating  the  width  and  diversity  of  the  work,  it  may 
be  noticed  that  these  appropriations  have  been  distributed 
among  39  different  States  and  Territories,  in  addition  to  Porto 
Rico  and  Cuba,  in  so  doing  reaching  140  of  our  Presbyteries. 
The   Southwest,  so   rapidly  filling  up,  has   by   its   applications

proven  that  its  religious  interests  are  keeping  pace  with  its 
marvelous  growth  in  material  prosperity,  Oklahoma,  as  last 
year,  claiming  the  largest  number  of  appropriations,  viz.,  25, 
amounting  in  the  aggregate  to  $33,075.  Washington,  in  the  far 
Northwest,  is  a  close  second  with  21,  to  the  amount  of  $20,486, 
Next  in  order  come  Minnesota  with  20,  calling  for  $13,600;  Ne- 
braska, 15,  and  in  amount  $13,100;  California  and  South 
Dakota,  the  former  with  12  and  the  latter  with  11  appropria- 
tions and  amounts  respectively  of  $12,500  and  $7,200;  and  in 
the  East,  Indiana  and  Pennsylvania,  each  with  10  and  in 
amounts  respectively  $11,200  and  $8,150. 

During  the  year  the  payments  indicate  that  223  church  build- 
ings and  manses  of  an  aggregate  value  of  $825,416  have  been 
completed  and  entirely  paid  for. 

The  total  receipts  in  all  departments  have  been  $220,573.63 
and  the  disbursements  $272,429.80.  The  usual  alphabetical 
and  synodical  tables,  indicating  in  detail  the  distribution  of  the 
appropriations,  will  be  found  in  the  Appendix,  while  upon  the 
following  page  is  a  tabular  view  of  the  work  of  the  Board  from 
its  inception  in  1844.  This  table  is  each  year  in  successive  re- 
ports brought  up  to  date.  The  first  two  columns  give  the  report 
for  the  year  just  closed  and  indicate  the  relative  demand;  the 
other  two  the  total  outcome  from  the  beginning. 

The  amounts  named  indicate  appropriations  and  somewhat 
exceed  the  actual  payments,  which  are  given  in  the  schedule 
at  the  foot  of  the  same  page.  Also,  as  will  be  noticed,  in  no  one 
year  are  the  appropriations  the  same  in  number  or  amount  as 
the  payments.  Appropriations  may  not  be  called  for  for  one 
or  even  two  years  after  they  are  voted,  and  a  certain  small 
percentage  are  never  called  for  at  all,  the  church  either  finding 
it  can  dispense  with  the  promised  assistance  or  in  some  instances 
relinquishing  the  attempt  to  build. 

The  Value  of  the  Work. 

A  consideration  of  the  facts  and  figures  that  each  year  indi- 
cate the  progress  of  the  work  committed  to  this  Board,  illus- 
trates the  wisdom  of  the  Assembly  in  organizing  it  as  one  of  the 
Church's  distinct  administrative  agencies  with  its  individual 
and  unique  sphere.  It  goes  forward  in  the  advance  of  the 
Church  side  by  side  with  the  Board  of  Home  Missions,  coopera- 
ting with  its  sister  agency  in  upholding  the  interests  of  the 
Kingdom,  but  at  the  same  time  with  a  distinct  mission  all  its

*ln  comparing  the  number  of  appropriations  with  the  number  of  churches  still  upon  the 
roll  which  have  been  aided,  it  should  be  noted,  as  appears  in  the  columns  of  payment.s,  that 
about  5  per  cent,  do  not  call  lor  their  appropriations,  that  about  the  same  number  have  rc- 
cieved  more  than  one  appropriation,  and  that  others  from  one  cause  or  another  are  either 
dissolved  or  consolidated,  the  actual  average  increa.se  in  the  number  of  churches  upon  the 
roll  of  the  Assembly  being  about  65  per  cent,  of  the  number  reported  as  organized.  It  is 
therefore  probable  that  the  nnmlier  of  churches  now  enrolled  which  have  been  assisted  by 
the  Board  is  not  more  than  two-thirds  of  the  total  number  of  appropriations  paid.

own,  and  caring  for  an  entirely  different  class  of  interests.  The 
Home  Board  plants  churches  as  centres  of  spiritual  life,  the 
Board  of  Church  Erection  provides  the  shelter  in  which  as  a 
home  the  spiritual  life  is  nurtured  and  trained  for  aggressive 
work.  To  this  end  it  has,  during  the  sixty-five  3^ears  since  its 
work  was  inaugurated,  taken  part  in  sustaining  and  in  making 
their  work  effective  the  majority  of  churches  now  in  active- 
life;  and  the  number  of  applications,  which  each  year  show- 
no  sign  of  diminution,  sufficiently  indicates  that  a  future  even' 
more  fruitful  than  the  past  awaits  it.  New  regions  of  our 
country  are  constantly  opening  for  the  entrance  of  the  great 
army  of  home-seekers  moving  steadily  onward,  and  with  the- 
march  of  these  tramping  columns,  if  the  country  is  to  continue 
to  hold  its  high  place  among  the  nations  of  the  earth,  the  insti- 
tutions of  the  Christian  faith  must  also  move  onward,  and  in 
every  newly  planted  settlement,  the  seat  perhaps  of  a  future 
city,  must  be  heard  the  voice  of  the  herald  proclaiming  as  of 
old,  ''Let  us  arise  and  build  the  House  of  God. " 

Overtures  Referred  by  the  Assembly. 

The  General  Assembly  of  1908  referred  to  this  Board  the 
following  Overture  from  the  Presbytery  of  Santa  Fe  with  direc- 
tions to  consider  it  and  to  report  to  the  Assembly  of  1909: 

"The  Presbytery  of  Santa  Fe  respectfully  overtures  the 
General  Assembly  to  appoint  a  Committee  to  consider  the 
advisability  and  feasibility  of  creating  a  Presbyterian  Mutual 
Fire  Insurance  Company,  for  the  purpose  of  insuring  the  churches, 
manses  and  other  church  property  from  loss  by  fire." 

The  Board  referred  this  Overture  to  a  special  Committee,  and 
at  its  regular  meeting  March  19,  upon  the  report  of  the  Com- 
mittee, unanimously  adopted  the  following  report  to  be  sent  up 
to  the  Assembly  of  1909: 

"The  Board  of  Church  Erection,  having  carefully  examined 
the  question  of  the  Assembly's  creating  a  mutual  fire  insurance 
company  for  the  protection  of  church  property,  referred  to  it  by 
the  General  Assembly  of  1908,  as  set  forth  in  the  Assembly's 
Minutes  of  1908,  at  pages  114  and  115,  respectfully  reports, 
that  in  view  of  the  variations  between  the  laws  of  the  different 
States,  and  also,  in  many  cases,  the  complexity  of  such  laws, 
it  does  not  recommend  the  creation  of  a  mutual  fire  insurance 
company  by  the  Assembly  at  the  present  time..  If  the  Assem- 
bly so  desires,  it  is  entirely  willing  to  undertake  a  further  exami- 
nation of  the  subject  and  report  thereon  at  the  next  Assembly. " 


14  ANNUAL    REPORT. 

The  Assembly  also  referred  to  the  several  Boards  interested, 
for  a  report  through  the  Stated  Clerk  to  the  next  Assembly,  the 
following  resolution  : 

''Resolved,  That  the  Treasurer  of  the  General  Assembly  and 
the  Treasurers  of  all  Trust  Funds  of  the  Boards  of  the  Presby- 
terian Church  in  the  United  States  of  America,  are  hereby 
instructed  to  carry  guaranty  insurance  on  all  cash  balances  held 
in  bank,  and  authorized  to  pay  the  premium  on  the  same  out  of 
any  funds  usable  for  administrative  expense." 

This  resolution  was  referred  by  the  Board  to  its  Finance 
Committee,  which  at  the  regular  meeting  of  the  Board,  March 
15,  1909,  made  the  following  report,  which  was  adopted  by 
the  Board  and  ordered  to  be  sent  to  the  Stated  Clerk  of  the 
General  Assembly: 

Resolved,  That  it  is  the  opinion  of  the  Finance  Committee 
of  the  Board  of  the  Church  Erection  Fund,  that  the  funds  of 
this  Board  have  heretofore  been  and  now  are  deposited  in  Trust 
Companies  in  the  City  of  New  York  of  the  highest  financial 
standing,  and  that  the  interests  of  this  Board  are  fully  and 
amply  protected  by  such  Trust  Companies,  which  are  subject  to 
an  examination  by  the  Banking  Department  of  the  State  of 
New  York;  and  this  Committee  is  further  of  the  opinion  that 
the  guaranty  of  such  Trust  Companies  is  sufficient  protection 
for  all  purposes  of  this  Board,  and  does  not  consider  it  necessary 
or  wise  to  subject  this  Board  to  any  additional  expense  in  ob- 
taining a  further  guaranty  by  an  insurance  of  the  cash  bank 
balances  of  this  Board. 

The  Future. 

In  accordance  with  its  charter  it  is  the  duty  of  this  Board  to 
report  to  each  Assembly  the  prospective  needs  of  the  work 
committed  to  it. 

In  complying  with  this  direction  the  Board  would  point  to 
the  statements  of  this  report  as  indicating  the  growing  demands 
that  come  to  it  from  all  parts  of  our  ever  expanding  Church. 
During  the  larger  part  of  the  year  not  only  its  General  Fund, 
but  also  its  Loan  and  Raynolds  Manse  Funds  were  practically 
exhausted.  To  the  applications  to  the  first  of  these  for 
grants,  responses  could  be  given  only  as  it  was  believed  that 
future  supplies  would  enable  the  Board  to  close  the  year  without 
debt.  Happily  its  confidence  has  been  justified,  but,  although 
it  has  escaped  indebtedness,  it  begins  the  new  year  with  a 
treasury  practically  empty. 


CHURCH    ERECTION.  15 

To  applications  to  the  latter  funds  it  could  only  respond  as 
installments  from  former  loans  were  received  and  this  meant 
delay,  which  in  some  cases  involved  serious  inconvenience  to 
the  churches  depending  upon  such  loans.  Evidently  such 
work  as  is  committed  to  this  Board  can  never  be  finished.  As 
our  country  grows,  not  only  are  new  regions  being  constantly 
opened  and  villages,  soon  to  become  cities,  founded,  but  in 
the  older  States  population  is  constantly  increasing  and  calling 
for  new  centres  of  religious  and  gospel  influence. 

The  Board  is  constantly  receiving,  even  from  States  as  old  and 
well  settled  as  Pennsylvania,  special  appeals  to  meet  the  spirit- 
ual needs  of  the  vast  numbers  of  immigrants  coming  in  to  work 
in  the  mines,  the  coal  fields  and  the  manufactories  upon  which 
her  wealth  and  property  depend. 

Add  these  worthy  and  eloquent  appeals  from  the  older  States 
to  the  ever  increasing  volume  of  applications  from  such  vast 
regions  as  confront  our  Church  in  the  Northwest,  the  Southwest, 
and  upon  the  Pacific  Coast,  and  some  adequate  conception 
may  be  formed  of  the  vast  problem  of  evangelization  which 
confronts  us.  Texas,  Oklahoma  and  Arizona  alone  present  a 
field  which  might  absorb  all  the  resources  of  the  Boards  of  Home 
Missions  and  Church  Erection  and  yet  not  be  adequately  covered. 

May  not  then  the  Board  press  upon  the  churches,  if  they 
desire  a  work  which  for  sixty-five  years,  with  their  aid  and 
under  the  guidance  of  the  General  Assembly  and  the  blessing 
of  God,  has  been  quietly  but  successfully  securing  the  perma- 
nence of  thousands  of  our  newly  planted  congregations,  the 
duty  and  privilege  of  meeting  the  situation  by  a  more  liberal 
support  of  their  agent  and  representative,  the  Board  of  Church 
Erection. 

Election  of  Members  of  the  Board. 

It  only  remains  to  add  that  the  terms  of  the  following  mem- 
bers of  the  Board  expire  at  this  time: 

Ministers.  Elders. 

Rev.  William  Russell  Bennett,  I.  Remsen  Lane,

Rev.  John  A.  Ingham,  D.D.,  [Vacancy.] 
Rev.  David  Magie,  D.D. 

It  will  devolve  upon  this  Assembly  to  fill  these  vacancies, 
and  also  a^vacancy  in  the  same  class  caused  by  4;he  death  of

Report  of  the  Standing  G)mmittee  on 
Church  Erection* 


Your  Committee  on  Church  Erection  begs  leave  to  present 
the  following  report. 

We  have  careftdly  examined  the  report  of  the  Board  and  com- 
mend the  faithfulness  with  which  the  trust  has  been  discharged 
within  the  limitations  imposed  by  the  General  Assembly,  and 
we  gladly  recognize  the  consecrated  services  through  so  many 
years  of  the  Secretary,  Dr.  Erskine  N.  White,  and  the  Treasurer, 
Adam  Campbell. 

We  believe  that  the  efficiency  of  the  Board  would  be  greatly 
increased,  and  that  it  would  render  a  A^ery  much  more  effective 
service  to  the  Church,  if  the  limitations  imposed  upon  it  years 
ago  when  the  Church  faced  very  different  conditions  could  be 
removed,  and  the  important  work  of  assisting  churches  in  erect- 
ing buildings  and  manses  be  restricted  in  no  way  other  than  by 
the  relative  importance  of  the  applications  filed  and  the  amount 
of  funds  available  to  meet  these  claims. 

The  custodians  and  administrators  of  this  fund  should  be  in 
a  position  to  aid  in  such  amount  as  in  their  judgment  the  stra- 
tegic importance  of  any  field  warrants.  This  work  has  outgrown 
in  every  way  the  "swaddling  bands"  imposed  upon  it  in  its 
infancy.  Sixty-four  years  ago  it  was  doubtless  the  part  of  wis- 
dom to  confine  our  church  erection  program  to  the  assistance  of 
"feeble  churches  erecting  inexpensive  buildings,  mostly  in  the 
West."  But  now  where  is  the  West?  The  rural  or  distinc- 
tively missionary  churches  still  have  a  large  and  undeniable 
claim  upon  our  great  national  Church ;  but  through  the  conges- 
tion of  population  in  our  cities,  the  young  city  churches  located 
in  new  and  rapidly  developing  suburbs  have  also  a  valid  and 
substantial  claim  upon  us.  The  relative  values  of  these  fields 
IS  no  longer  a  question  of  choice  but  of  destiny.     These  new 


18  ANNUAL    REPORT. 

suburban  churches,  upon  whom  is  laid  the  burden  of  erecting 
adequate  and  commanding  structures,  whose  charter  members 
are  in  the  majority  of  cases  possessed  of  moderate  incomes,  forced 
into  the  outlying  sections  by  the  prices  of  home  sites  centrally 
located,  limited  as  to  their  contributions  because  they  are  home 
builders— these  are  the  churches  of  the  future  to  whom  we  can 
confidently  look  for  offerings  wherewith  to  carry  on  and  augment 
our  great  missionary  enterprises.  There  is  a  critical  moment  in 
the  life  of  every  such  church,  when  adequate  and  generous  help 
immediately  given  means  a  return  in  membership  and  money 
incalculably  beyond  the  assistance  received. 

In  the  majority  of  these  cases  the  new  residents  capable  of 
rendering  the  greatest  amount  of  financial  assistance  will  not 
connect  themselves  with  such  churches  during  their  period  of 
struggle,  preferring  to  retain  their  connection  with  the  older 
churches,  where  they  enjoy  the  comforts  and  privileges  of  ade- 
quate buildings,  and  where  no  claim  is  laid  against  them  for 
contributions  to  new  buildings.  But  when  the  new  and  neigh- 
boring enterprise  has  secured  its  church  building,  even  though 
it  be  encumbered  with  a  debt,  they  gladly  transfer  their  member- 
ships, and  in  a  very  short  time  the  new  church  is  in  a  position  to 
repay  the  grant  or  loan  of  our  Board  and  become  a  generous 
■sharer  in  the  building  of  other  churches. 

The  report  shows  that  8,835  churches  have  received  assistance 
during  the  life  of  the  Board,  and  that  this  year  5,155  churches 
have  contributed  towards  its  support.  This  would  look  as 
though  3,680,  or  more  than  one-third  of  the  churches  assisted, 
have  either  forgotten  or  neglected  or  been  unable  to  express  their 
loyalty  to  the  source  whence  came  their  help.  We  very  much 
doubt  whether  so  large  a  portion  would  have  failed  had  this 
administrative  agency  of  the  Church  been  given  a  freer  hand  in 
administering  its  vital  trust. 

It  is  also  manifest  from  a  consideration  of  the  amount  contrib- 
uted for  this  work  last  year  by  all  our  churches  and  Sunday- 
schools,  $67,961.46,  that  the  claims  of  this  Board  do  not  bulk 
very  big  among  the  vital  interests  of  the  Church.  May  not 
this  be  taken  as  an  indication  of  the  fact  that  the  very  restricted 
and  antiquated  policy  under  which  this  trust  is  administered, 
is  not  sufficiently  large  or  venturesome  to  impress  its  program 
upon  our  great-hearted  givers. 

But,  however  we  shall  assign  the  reason,  the  fact  confronts 
us  that  the  Church  regards  this  enterprise  as  now  conducted 


CHURCH    ERECTION.  19 

a,s  of  minor  moment.  Tour  Committee  deplores  this  fact. 
Hardly  a  man  in  this  Assembly  to-day  but  who  knows  of  some 
church  that  is  weak  and  inefficient,  simply  and  solely  because 
it  cannot  secure  an  adequate  building.  Our  Church  cannot 
make  a  better  investrr.ent  than  in  erecting  suitable  houses  of 
•worship  in  strategic  centres.  To  carry  out  such  an  enlarged 
program  as  we  recommend  will  cost  a  far  greater  sum  than  we 
have  ever  given,  but  such  a  cheering,  open-handed  policy  will 
yield  in  the  years  to  come  an  incalculable  return  on  the  invest- 
ment. 

This  is  a  might}''  and  a  materialistic  age.  The  wealth  and 
power  of  the  world  flaunts  its  supremacy  before  God's  people 
as  never  before.  The  consecration  and  faith  of  the  Cathedral 
builders  is  more  needed  to-day  than  ever  it  was  in  the  Middle 
Ages.  As  our  great  cities  rear  the  walls  of  their  mammoth 
.■steel-ribbed  structures  to  the  skies,  shall  the  Church  shrink 
back,  hoveled,  unspired,  outclassed,  apologetic? 

Your  Committee  offers  the  following  recommendations: 

1.  That  the  records  of  the  Board  be  approved. 

2.  That  the  annual  report  of  the  Board  be  approved  and 
commended  to  the  careful  consideration  of  our  ministers  and 
laymen. 

3.  That  the  claims  of  the  great  work  be  emphasized  in  all  our 
churches. 

4.  That  the  Presbyteries  be  urged  to  instruct  the  Chairmen 
of  their  permanent  Committees  on  Church  Erection  to  require 
delinquent  churches  to  meet  their  stipulated  obligations,  namely: 

(a)  To  take  at  the  least  an  annual  collection  for  this  Board. 

(6)  To  pay  promptly  the  principal  and  interest  on  their  loans 
when  due. 

(c)  To  keep  the  churches  insured  and  their  insurance  policies 
paid  up. 

5.  That  the  Board  be  authorized  to  extend  its  utmost  aid  in 
the  erection  of  churches  and  chapels  for  our  foreign  populations. 

6.  That  we  deeply  sympathize  with  our  brethren  in  Tennessee 
who  have  lately  been  deprived  of  their  church  properties,  and 
that  we  recommend  their  claims  to  the  Board  as  of  primary 
importance,  rejoicing  in  the  action  already  taken  by  this  Assem- 
bly on  their  behalf,  and  commending  them  for  their  Christian 
heroism. 

7.  That  a  special  committee  of  ten  be  appointed  by  this  General 
Assembly  to  consider  the  advisability  and  feasibility  of  creating 


20  ANNUAL    REPORT. 

a  mutual  fire  insurance  company  for  the  purpose  of  insuring  the 
churches,  manses,  and  other  church  properties  from  loss  by  fire. 

8.  That  Resolutions  9  and  10  of  the  report  of  the  Committee 
on  Administrative  Agencies,  referred  to  this  Committee  by  action 
of  the  General  Assembly,  be  not  adopted. 

9.  That  we  recommend  that  the  restrictions  now  imposed 
upon  this  Board  be  removed — 

(a)  As  to  the  cost  of  church  buildings,  in  the  erection  of  which 
the  Board  may  assist. 

(6)  As  to  the  time  when  this  assistance  may  be  given. 

10.  That  we  ask  the  General  Assembly  to  re-elect  the  members 
of  the  Board  whose  terms  expire  this  year;  that  the  vacancy 
caused  by  the  death  of  Mr.  Bronson  be  filled  by  the  election  of 
Charles  Glatz,  Esq.,  of  New  York  City,  and  that  the  choice  made 
by  the  Board  of  Mr.  James  E.  Ware  to  fill  the  unexpired  term 
of_George  E.  Sterry,  Esq.,  deceased,  be  approved. 

Respectfully  submitted,

and  certify  that  the  assets  appearing  on  the  Treasurer's  "State-

Sunday-school  Building. 


This  design  is  made  for  a  small  Sunday-school  or  chapel,  to  be 
built  of  frame  and  to  cost  from  $i,ooo  to  $1,500,  depending  upon 
the  finish.  It  will  seat  120  in  the  main  room,  and  40  in  tlie  infant 
room,  and  is  very  suitable  for  a  small  country  school  or  mission 
chapel.  The  sash  partition  between  the  two  rooms  can  be  raised 
and  the  whole  building  used  together ;  the  main  room  can  be  used 
for  general  Sabbath  meetings,  and  the  smaller  for  weekly  prayer 
meetings.  The  design  can  be  executed  in  stone  or  brick  without 
adding  very  much  to  the  cost,  making  a  difference  probably  of 
$500.

This  is  a  plain  and  inexpensive  building  designed  by  Mr. 
W.  H.  Hayes,  of  Minneapolis,  Minn.  It  is  40  x  43,  and  will  seat 
200  in  chairs  in  the  main  room,  and  100  in  the  small  room,  which 
can  be  thrown  open  into  the  larger.  The  cost  will  depend  upon 
the  location  and  will  vary  from  $3,000  to  $4,000.

A  Small  Church. 


The  above  illustration  shows  a  small  church  and  Sunday- 
school  building.  This  plan  has  been  prepared  with  the  idea 
that  the  whole  building  need  not  be  built  at  one  time ;  either 
the  Sunday-school  part  or  the  church  can  be  built  first,  and  the 
balance  added  at  any  time  afterward. 

If  the  church  should  be  built  first,  the  tower  might  be  omitted 
and  a  small  vestibule  substituted  for  it  until  the  balance  be 
added.  In  this  way  the  church  would  cost  about  $2,000.  The 
whole  could  be  built  for  about  $3,500. 

The  completed  plan  consists  of  a  main  room  seating  225,  a 
Sunday-school  room  seating  100,  and  a  class  or  infant  room  seat- 
ing 40.  The  ceilings  in  all  the  rooms  will  be  arched,  and  the  tim- 
ber work  exposed. 

The  designs  are  made  for  a  frame  building,  but  can  be  adapted 
to  either  brick  or  stone.  It  will  be  possible  either  to  enlarge  or 
decrease  the  size.

Sunday-school  Building. 


The  above  design  is  for  a  Sunday-school  building  that  can  also 
be  used  as  a  church.  It  consists  of  a  central  room  seating  150 
persons ;  this  room  is  entered  through  three  vestibules ;  it  is 
octagonal  in  shape,  surrounded  on  three  sides  by  class-rooms, 
the  infant  room  in  front  seating  45 ;  a  Bible  class  room  at  one 
side  seating  2j ;  two  class-rooms  on  the  opposite  side  seating  12 
each. 

The  cost  will  vary  as  to  location,  from  $4,000  to  $6,000.

No.  65. 


This  design  is  for  an  inexpensive  but  commodious  and  attrac- 
tive building-  that  can  be  erected  upon  a  lot  43  feet  wide,  or,  if 
on  a  corner,  40  feet.  It  has  a  stone  foundation.  The  interior 
wood-work  is  of  dressed  yellow  pine.  As  will  be  seen  by  the 
ground  plan  upon  the  next  page,  the  Sunday-school  rooms  are 
connected  with  the  auditorium  by  folding  doors.  These  doors 
are  hung  on  an  over-head  track.  The  building  can  be  erected  for 
from  $3,000  to  $3,500.  The  architect  is  John  Bacon  Hutchings, 
Louisville,  Ky.

The  above  design  is  by  Stephenson  &  Greene,  Temple  Court, 

New  York. 


The  main  auditorium  is  in  the  form  of  a  Greek  cross,  as  is 
shown  by  the  roof  Hnes.  The  Sunday-school  building,  two 
stories  high,  is  on  the  side  street  beyond  the  main  auditorium. 

The  principal  entrances  to  the  main  auditorium  are  through 
the  tower,  and  a  porch  at  the  further  end  of  the  front.  There 
are,  besides  these,  an  entrance  to  the  Sunday-school  room,  and 
two  small  ones  on  each  side  near  the  pulpit  platform.  The  floor 
of  the  auditorium  slopes  towards  the  pulpit.  The  pews  will 
accommodate  775  persons  without  crowding.  The  arrangement 
of  seating  shows  aisles  against  the  side  walls.  This  is  preferable 
to  running  pew  ends  against  walls  which  are  apt  to  be  draughty. 
The  arch  over  the  pulpit  platform  is  of  plaster,  richly  moulded, 
and  rests  on  clustered  columns  with  carved  capitals.  Similar 
arches  are  over  the  choir,  and  rest  against  the  wall  on  the  other 
side  of  the  platform.  The  interior  finish  is  of  oak. 

The  Sunday-school  room  has  a  number  of  class-rooms  in 
the  gallery,  besides  those  on  the  principal  floor.  There  is  an 
attractive  parlor  with  a  bay  and  an  open  fireplace  on  the  first 
floor,  and  there  is  another  parlor  above  it.  In  the  basement  are 
toilet  rooms,  a  kitchen,  and  a  large  room  which  can  be  used  for 
a  dining  hall  or  other  purposes.

This  is  a  modification  of  our  Design  No.  ii.  The  main  room 
is  ten  feet  wider  and  the  lecture  room  two  feet  deeper.  A  tower 
is  added,  which  increases  the  attractiveness  of  the  building  and 
provides  a  place  for  a  larger  bell.  This  makes  a  most  tasteful 
little  edifice,  seating  about  200.  The  small  room  in  front  affords 
a  convenient  place  for  small  evening  meetings  or  for  the  purpose 
of  church  parlor,  and  at  all  times  serves  as  a  spacious  ante-room. 
Above  it  is  a  very  convenient  infant  class  room.  The  building 
will  cost  about  $2,000,  and  working  drawings  and  specifications 
can  be  furnished  at  a  very  small  price.  We  have  drawings  of  the 
same  upon  a  still  larger  scale,  viz.  35  x  50,  but  without  the  tower, 
and  retaining  the  cupola  as  in  No.  ii.

A  very  attractive  house  recently  purchased  for  the  First 
Presbyterian  Church  of  Washington,  Kan.  The  ground  plan 
appears  upon  the  opposite  page  and  shows  the  arrangement 
of  rooms  upon  the  ground  floor.  There  is  a  second  half-story 
adding  two  or  three  more  comfortable  rooms.  The  property 
cost  $3,000  ;  but  as  that  includes  value  of  the  lot,  it  is  probable 
that  the  house  could  be  built  for  somewhat  less.  The  pastor 
is  the  Rev.  S.  W.  Pringle.

THE  REPORT  OF  THE  STANDING  COMMITTEE 
ON  MINISTERIAL  RELIEF. 

Action   of  the  General  Assembly  at  Denver,  Colo., 
May,  1909. 

To  the  General  Assembly  in  session  at  Denver,  Colo., 
May  20,  1909 : 

Your  Committee  would  beg  leave  to  submit  the  fol- 
lowing report  for  your  consideration  and  adoption.  We 
find  the  following  statements  which  we  copy  from  the 
fifty-fourth  annual  report  of  the  Presbyterian  Board  of 
Relief : 

"The  Board  has  upon  its  rolls  for  the  year  ending 
March  31,  1909,  1,118  names;  457  ministers,  584  widows, 
35  orphan  families,  14  women  missionaries,  18  guests  in 
the  Merion  Home,  Newton,  New  Jersey,  and  13  guests  at 
the  Thornton  Home,  under  the  care  of  the  Board  at  Evans- 
ville,  Indiana.  This  is  the  largest  number  the  Board  has 
ever  had  on  its  rolls.  During  the  year  we  had  130  new 
names  added  to  the  roll,  being  the  largest  number  of  new 
cases  ever  added  to  the  roll  in  one  year  since  the  Board  was 
organized.  There  have  been  224  ministers  on  the  Roll  of 
Honor  during  the  past  year,  the  largest  number  we  have 
ever  had  upon  this  roll.  Their  average  is  over  yj  years ; 
the  average  time  they  have  been  in  the  ministry  has  been 
48  years.  The  amount  granted  to  the  men  on  the  Roll  of 
Honor  during  the  year  was  $64,100,  being  an  average  of 
$286,  as  all  of  the  honorably  retired  ministers  did  not  ask 
for  the  maximum  amount  of  $300 ;  67  of  those  upon  the  roll 
passed  away  during  the  year,  47  ministers  and  20  widows. 
The  average  amount  granted  to  widows  on  the  pay  roll 
during  the  year  was  $162 ;  the  average  amount  paid  to  dis- 
abled ministers  not  honorably  retired  was  $228.  The  aver- 
age amount  paid  to  ministers  on  the  Roll  of  Honor  was 
$287."  These  facts  and  figures  are  both  interesting  and 
suggestive.  They  are  suggestive  of  conditions  in  the  Church 
which  excite  our  sympathies  and  at  the  same  time  arouse 
our  indignation.  It  is  pitiful  to  think  that  1,118  families 
are  absolutely  dependent  upon  the  Board  for  support  to 
finish  out  their  days  after  our  ministers  have  given  long 
years  of  honorable  service  to  our  beloved  Church.  We  call 
the  attention  of  the  Assembly  to  the  Current  Fund  receipts 
for  the  years  1907  to   1908  and  1908  to  1909.     The  total 


ii  Annual  Report  of  the  Board  of  Relief. 

receipts  for  1907  to  1908  were  $226,214.64,  for  1908  to  1909, 
$238,254.84,  showing  an  increase  of  $12,040.18.  We  call 
attention  also  to  the  Endowment  Fund  receipts,  which  were 
$4,588.58,  making  the  total  receipts  for  the  year  $242,- 
843.42.  Our  Endowment  Fund  in  1897  was  $1,551,783.00, 
and  at  present  it  is  $2,000,000.00,  with  over  $300,000.00 
more  willed  to  the  Board  which  may  soon  be  placed  in  its 
treasury.  We  are  authorized  to  say  with  the  addition  of 
$4,000,000  to  the  Endowment  Fund  our  Board  could  pay 
every  minister  entitled  to  aid  $500  per  annum.  This  Fund 
is  rapidly  increasing  without  any  special  effort  by  field  rep- 
resentatives. In  the  past  twelve  years  it  has  been  increased 
by  $750,000.00,  counting  the  will  of  $300,000.00.  A  special 
effort  would  soon  bring  the  needed  sum. 

The  Committee  reports  with  great  satisfaction  the  fol- 
lowing statement  of  the  Board's  Report : 

"Realizing  the  sacredness  of  the  work  which  the  Gen- 
eral Assembly  has  intrusted  to  its  hands,  the  Board  has 
used  all  diligence  in  administering  its  trusts  so  as  to  have 
the  work  well  done  and  as  economically  as  possible,  and  we 
are  glad  to  be  able  to  report  that  the  cost  of  administra- 
tion has  been  but  4.7  per  cent  of  its  receipts  during  the 
year."  This  statement  demands  from  us  the  recognition  of 
the  ability  and  great  fidelity  of  the  Board  in  the  adminis- 
tration of  the  affairs  intrusted  to  it  by  the  Assembly. 

What  word  shall  we  send  down  to  the  presbyteries  and 
the  churches  through  the  ministers  and  elders  of  this  As- 
sembly? Shall  it  not  be  to, the  presbyteries  that  only  74 
have  contributed  to  the  funds  more  than  they  have  drawn 
out,  and  that  200  have  drawn  out  more  than  they  have  con- 
tributed to  the  Board  ?  We  say  this  kindly  but  earnestly : 
this  is  the  accepted  time  for  the  chairman  of  the  Committee 
on  Ministerial  Relief  in  every  presbytery  to  bestir  himself 
in  behalf  of  this  cause.  4,637  churches  are  asleep,  are 
dead  to  this  cause.  By  some  such  power  as  you  can 
exercise  over  these  churches,  240  were  brought  to  life  last 
year,  swelling  the  number  of  contributing  churches  to  5,358. 
But  what  shall  we  say  to  the  church  membership  through 
the  pastor?  Will  it  be  to  urge  the  claims  of  this  Board 
upon  you  simply  from  a  sense  of  duty?  Not  that  alone, 
but  along  with  that,  enjoin  it  as  a  high  privilege  to  con- 
tribute hundreds  or  thousands  to  the  support  of  those  veter- 
ans. Are  they  not  worthy  of  more  than  a  passing  thought 
or  the  prayer  that  God  would  keep  them  and  feed  them? 
These  men  are  not  themselves  making  any  plea   for  your 


A)unial  Report  of  the  Board  of  Relief.  iii 

support,  but  their  work  and  influence  speak  for  them. 
Having  food  and  raiment  they  were  content  to  work  on  until 
health  failed,  or  old  age  incapacitated  them,  or  by  force  of 
circumstances  they  were  set  aside.  Now  they  are  at  our 
mercy.  If  there  is  anything  wrong  in  the  support  we  are 
giving  to  them,  anything  humiliating  in  the  men  and  women 
who  receive,  in  the  amount  given,  it  is  the  fault  of  the 
Church ;  they  are  worthy  of  the  highest  honor,  of  the  best 
support  the  great  and  rich  Church  can  give  them,  for  have 
they  not  contributed  largely  to  the  spread  and  influence  and 
splendor  of  this  Church  ?  They  have  been  the  pioneers. 
Many  of  them  have  crossed  the  seas  and  worn  out  their 
lives  on  the  foreign  field. 

Why  should  not  the  wives  and  mothers  and  daughters 
of  the  Church  be  more  actively  interested  in  this  cause  ?  We 
believe  it  would  appeal  to  them  and  secure  a  hearty  sup- 
port throughout  the  Church  if  it  were  carefully  and  regu- 
larly presented  to  them.  We  quote  from  the  Board's  Re- 
port :  "We  are  glad  to  report  that  in  some  churches  the 
ladies  are  coming  more  to  realize  the  magnitude  and  sacred- 
ness  of  the  Board  and  are  beginning  to  organize  Relief 
Guilds  and  other  societies  for  assisting  the  Board  in  its 
blessed  ministries." 

We  bring  this  cause  to  the  attention  of  the  Brotherhood. 
It  is  so  worthy  it  needs  only  a  word  to  call  forth  a  response 
from  every  strong,  true-hearted  man.  The  Brotherhood 
has  within  it  the  power  to  supply  all  the  funds  in  a  few 
years  necessary  to  make  up  the  $4,000,000.00  needed  for 
the  Relief  Fund.  This  movement  for  this  cause  must  be 
inaugurated ;  some  one  must  come  to  the  front  as  the  leader. 

In  the  matter  of  the  Overture  from  the  Presbytery  of 
Pittsburgh  (see  Board's  last  Report,  page  11,  which  was 
referred  to  the  Board  of  Relief  by  the  General  Assembly 
of  1908),  the  Board  answers  that  it  cannot  so  enlarge  and 
modify  its  power  and  scope  as  to  include  the  Ministerial 
Sustentation  Fund.  This  decision  was  based  on  the  advice 
of  the  ablest  counsel  at  the  command  of  the  Board  to  the 
effect  that  such  a  merging  would  imperil  the  vested  funds 
of  the  Board.    W^e  approve  this  action  of  the  Board. 

In  the  matter  of  the  column  in  the  Minutes  of  the  Gen- 
eral Assembly  headed  Relief  Fund,  the  Board  answers  that 
any  changing  in  the  heading  of  the  column  entitled  Relief 
Fund  in  the  statistical  reports  of  the  presbyteries  be  con- 
sidered inadvisable.  This  seems  to  the  committee  both  wise 
and  reasonable. 


iv  Annual  Report  of  the  Board  of  Relief. 

Your  Committee  makes  the  following  recommendations 
for  adoption : 

First :  That  the  minutes  of  the  Board  of  Relief  of  the 
Presbyterian  Church  in  the  U.  S.  A.,  and  also  that  the  min- 
utes of  the  Board  of  Relief  of  the  Cumberland  Presbyterian 
Church  be  approved. 

Second :  That  the  Chairman  of  the  Committee  on 
Ministerial  Relief  throughout  the  presbyteries  be  urged  to 
have  this  cause  presented  once  a  year  and  an  offering  made 
in  every  church. 

Third :  That  the  General  Assembly  reaffirm  ivith  the 
greatest  possible  emphasis  that  the  money  distributed  by 
the  Board  of  Relief  to  our  aged  and  infirm  ministers,  their 
widows  and  orphans,  is  not  a  charity,  but  a  just  and  honor- 
able recognition  of  their  services  to  the  Church,  the  debt  of 
which  can  never  be  fully  liquidated. 

Fourth :  That  the  Assembly  rejoices  in  the  prosperity 
of  the  work  of  the  Board,  as  evidenced  by  the  report  of  the 
year,  and  heartily  commends  the  faithful  and  efficient  ad- 
ministration of  its  funds  by  the  officers  and  directors. 

Fifth :  That  Rev.  Samuel  T.  Lowrie,  D.D.,  Rev. 
Phillip  Mowry,  D.D.,  Henry  L.  Davis,  Esq.,  Robert  H. 
Smith,  Esq.,  whose  term  of  office  as  directors  expires  with 
this  Assembly,  be  reelected  for  the  term  of  three  years ; 
also  that  we  approve  of  the  election  to  the  Cumberland  Pres- 
byterian Board  of  Relief  of  Mr.  Travis  Munday  to  fill  the 
unexpired  term  of  Rev.  T.  A.  Wigginston,  and  nominate  for 
election  to  serve  for  a  term  of  three  years  Dr.  J.  C.  Mc- 
Clurkin,  Mr.  August  J.  Schlaepher  and  J.  E.  Williamson. 

Sixth :  That  in  the  matter  of  Overture  No.  i6  from  the 
Presbytery  of  Kittanning,  requesting  that  the  name  of  the 
Board  of  Ministerial  Relief  be  changed  to  "The  Board  of 
Pensions  for  Alinisters,"  would  recommend  that  the  action 
of  the  General  Assembly  in  previous  years  to  similar  Over- 
tures be  reaffirmed  and  no  change  of  name  be  made. 

Seventh  :  That  in  the  form  of  application  No.  2,  for 
Widows,  question  No.  13,  "Has  she  no  children  able  to 
support  her?"  be  eliminated,  and  the  other  forms,  Nos.  i,  3, 
4,  5  and  6,  be  approved. 

Respectfully    submitted, 

JosiAH   McClain, 

Chairman. 
Attest : 

Wm.  H.  Roberts, 
Stated  Clerk.

ANNUAL  REPORT 

TO    THE 

GENERAL  ASSEMBLY 

OF    1909. 


The  Presbyterian  Board  of  Relief  for  Disabled 
Ministers  and  the  Widows  and  Orphans  of  Deceased 
Ministers,  respectfully  presents  to  The  General  Assem- 
bly its  Annual  Report  for  the  3'ear  from  April  ist,  1908,  to 
April  1st,  1909. 

THIS  IS  THE  SIXTIETH  YEAR 

since  the  organization  of  Relief  \^'ork  by  the  General  As- 
sembly of  1849,  ^^^  t^^is  is 

THE  FIFTY-FOURTH  ANNUAL  REPORT 
OF  THE  WORK, 

the  first  Annual  Report  having-  been  made  to  the   General 
Assembly  in  1856  by  the  Trustees  of  the  Assembly. 

The  Book  of  Minutes  containing  the  proceedings  of  the 
Board  for  the  year  1908-1909  is  also  herewith  presented. 

THE  ROLL. 

The  Board  had  upon  its  rolls  for  the  year  ending  March 
31st,  1909,  1,118  names:  457  ministers,  584  widows,  35 
orphan  families,  14  women  missionaries,  18  guests  in  The 
Merriam  Home  at  Newton,  N.  J.,  and  13  guests  at  The 
Thornton  Home,  under  the  care  of  the  Board,  at  Evansville, 
Ind.  Three  of  these  guests  spent  part  of  the  year  at  The 
Merriam  Home  and  part  of  the  year  at  The  Thornton  Home.

4  Annual  Report  of  the  Board  of  Relief. 

This  is  the  largest  number  the  Board  has  ever  had  upon 
its  rolls. 

During  the  year,  we  had  130  new  names  added  to  the 
roll,  being  the  largest  number  of  new  cases  ever  added  to 
the  roll  in  any  year  since  the  Board  was  organized.  These 
comprised  63  ministers,  64  widows,  i  orphan,  and  2  women 
missionaries 

There  have  been  224  ministers  on  the  Roll  of  Honor 
during  the  past  year,  the  largest  number  we  have  ever  had 
upon  this  Roll.  Their  average  age  is  over  yj  years,  and 
the  average  time  they  have  been  in  the  ministry  has  been 
48  years.  37  of  these  have  been  added  during  the  year  just 
closed,  and  21  of  these  venerable  men  have  died. 

Since  the  Rule  of  1889  was  adopted,  473  ministers  have 
availed  themselves  of  its  privileges. 

The  amount  granted  to  men  on  the  Roll  of  Honor  dur- 
ing the  year  was  $64,100,  being  an  average  of  $286,  as  all 
of  the  Honorably  Retired  ministers  did  not  ask  for  the  max- 
imum amount  of  $300. 

There  are  more  ministers  in  our  Church  not  on  the 
Roll  of  Honor  than  there  are  upon  that  roll,  who  have  been 
in  active  service  for  more  than  30  years,  and  who  are  over 
70  years  of  age,  who  have  incomes  sufficient  to  support  their 
families.  It  is  not  expected  that  these  brethren  will  ask 
for  the  Honorarium  paid  to  men  on  the  Roll  of  Honor,  and 
they  do  not  ask  for  it,  generously  preferring  to  have  the 
limited  amount  of  money  given  to  the  Board  distributed 
among  the  families  of  their  brethren  who  are  not  as  highly 
favored,  financially,  as  they  have  been. 

DEATHS. 

Sixty-seven  of  those  upon  the  roll  passed  away  during 
the  year:  47  ministers,  and  20  widows,  one  of  whom  died 
at  The  Thornton  Home. 


AVERAGE  PAYMENTS. 

The  average  amount  granted  to  widows  on  the  pay 
roll  during  the  year  was  $162. 

The  average  amount  paid  to  disabled  ministers  not 
Honorably  Retired  was  $228. 

The  average  amount  paid  to  ministers  on  the  Roll  of 
Honor  was  $286.

in  1897  was  $1,551,783,  and  at  present  it  is  $2,000,000, 
with  over  $300,000  more  willed  to  the  Board  which  may  soon 
be  placed  in  its  treasury. 

COST  OF  ADMINISTRATION. 

Realizing  the  sacredness  of  the  work  which  the  Gen- 
eral Assembly  has  entrusted  to  its  hands,  the  Board  has 
used  all  diligence  in  administering  its  trust  so  as  to  have 
the  work  well  done  and  as  economically  as  possible,  and 
we  are  glad  to  be  able  to  report  that  the  cost  of  administra- 
tion has  been  but  4.7  per  cent,  of  its  receipts  during  the  year. 

STATISTICS. 

We  present  some  statistics  to  show  how  the  work  of  the 
Board  is  steadily  growing  in  magnitude.

1909    1,118  113,696.72  216.904.72 

Your  Board  of  Relief  is  greatly  encouraged  in  the 
blessed  work  committed  to  it  by  the  General  Assembly. 

The  books  of  the  Board  show  that  the  receipts  from 
the  church  collections,  for  the  first  time,  exceeded  $100,000 


6  Annual  Report  of  the  Board  of  Relief. 

in  the  year  ending  March  31st,  1908,  when  they  were  $106,- 
396,  We  are  glad  to  be  able  to  report  that  the  receipts  for 
the  year  ending  March  31st,  1909,  have  been  greater  still, 
being  $113,696.72. 

Whilst  the  roll  of  those  receiving  support  has  been 
greatly  increased  during  the  past  year,  and  the  appropria- 
tions have  been  the  largest  ever  made  in  any  year  of  the 
existence  of  the  Board,  being  $216,904.72,  yet  all  the  appro- 
priations were  promptly  paid. 

Whilst  it  is  very  encouraging  that  the  receipts  of  the 
Board  are  annually  increasing,  it  is  a  fact  that  calls  for 
attention  that  only  six  Synods  contributed  more  to  the  funds 
of  the  Board  last  year  than  their  Presbyteries  drew  out  for 
those  under  their  care,  namely.  Baltimore,  Montana,  New 
York,  New  Jersey,  Pennsylvania  and  Philippines,  and  that 
200  Presbyteries  have  drawn  out  from  the  treasury  of  the 
Board,  for  those  under  their  care,  more  than  they  have  con- 
tributed to  its  funds. 

Only  74  Presbyteries  have  contributed  to  the  funds  of 
the  Board  more  than  they  have  drawn  out. 

In  examining  the  foregoing  table  of  statistics,  it  will  be 
seen  that  the  churches  have  contributed  only  about  half  as 
much  as  the  Board  has  paid  to  claimants  for  support. 

It  is  by  the  large  increase  in  the  Endowment  Funds  of 
the  Board  yielding  increased  interest,  by  generous  individual 
gifts  and  by  unrestricted  legacies,  that  your  Board  has  been 
enabled  to  keep  up,  and  in  many  cases  to  exceed,  the  gen- 
eral average  appropriations  to  the  different  classes  on  the 
rolls,  and  to  pay  these  appropriations  promptly  and  in  full, 
every  month,  for  several  years. 

CONTRIBUTING  CHURCHES. 

During  the  past  year  5,358  churches  sent  contributions 
to  the  Board  of  Relief,  240  more  than  ever  gave  before ;  and 
there  were  4,637  churches  which  sent  nothing  at  all. 

If  these  4,637  non-contributing  churches  would  but 
give  their  people  a  fair  opportunity  to  make  an  offering 
for  this  precious  and  priceless  beneficence  every  year,  and 
they  should  each  give  but  one  dollar,  it  would  give  the 
Board  $4,637  to  distribute,  and  that  amount  would  give 
to  all  our  annuitants,  except  those  on  the  Roll  of  Honor, 
$5  each  more  than  they  now  receive.  Even  that  small  sum 
would  be  a  great  blessing  to  these  families.  Or  if  the  non- 
contributing  churches  would  each  raise  $2  a  year  and  up-

wards,  the  Board  could  g'ive  the  claimants  upon  its  funds 
$10  a  year  more  than  they  are  now  receiving,  and  that 
amount  would  be  a  God-send  to  these  worthy  families. 

PASTORS, 

Experience  has  taught  your  Board  that,  where  pastors 
are  in  the  habit  of  making  a  special  plea  every  year  for  a 
contribution  to  Alinisterial  Relief,  the  churches  respond 
generously  to  their  pleas. 

Sometimes  pastors  feel  a  delicacy  about  asking  their 
people  for  a  contribution  to  this  cause,  but  the  pastor  cannot 
beg  for  himself  when  presenting  the  claims  of  his  disabled 
brethren  for  a  comfortable  support,  because  no  pastor  can 
get  a  dollar  from  this  fund  while  he  is  in  health  and  able  to 
preach.  Our  disabled  ministers  have  a  right  to  expect  their 
brethren  in  the  active  work  of  the  pastorate  to  stand  by 
them  in  the  days  of  their  disability,  and  see  to  it  that  the 
Church,  to  which  they  have  given  the  service  of  their  lives, 
should  not  forsake  them  in  the  time  of  their  old  age. 

WOMEN  AND  RELIEF  GUILDS. 

The  work  of  the  Board  of  Relief  appeals  most  tenderly 
to  the  women  of  our  Church.  There  are  584  widows  on 
the  roll  of  the  Board,  and  14  women  missionaries,  besides 
35  orphan  families  and  457  aged  or  disabled  ministers.  Can 
any  work  have  stronger  claims  upon  the  sympathies  of  the 
women  of  our  Church  ?  What  would  their  homes  be  were 
it  not  for  the  loving  and  faithful  ministrations  of  the  con- 
scientious men  of  God  who  have  filled  our  pulpits,  and  of 
the  devoted  women  who  have  stood  by  their  husbands 
through  their  arduous  and  self-denying  lives  and  cheered 
them  on  in  the  magnificent  work  of  the  world's  evangeliza- 
tion? 

We  are  glad  to  report  that  in  some  churches  the  ladies 
are  coming  more  and  more  to  realize  the  magnitude  and 
sacredness  of  the  work  of  the  Board  and  are  beginning  to 
organize  Relief  Guilds  and  other  societies  for  the  purpose 
of  assisting  the  Board  in  its  blessed  ministrations.  These 
guilds  and  other  societies  are  engaged  in  preparing  boxes 
for  needy  families.  Besides  preparing  boxes,  these  asso- 
ciations of  good  women,  working  in  harmony  with  Church 
sessions,  have  power  to  stir  up  the  different  organizations 
in  the  churches  to  do  more  noble  and  generous  things  in  the

WEALTHY  MEN  AND  WOMEN. 

We  are  glad  to  report  to  the  General  Assemblv  that  a 
goodly  number  of  the  members  of  our  Church,  to  whom  a 
good  and  gracious  God  has  entrusted  wealth,  are  more  and 
more  coming  to  remember  in  their  wills  the  Board  of  Re- 
lict as  your  agency  for  furnishing  support  to  the  hundreds 
of  families  now  upon  our  roll,  and  for  the  hundreds  more 
that  will  inevitably  come  upon  the  roll  as  the  years  go  by. 

FORMS  OF  APPLICATION. 

Some  objections  have  been  made  to  the  use  of  Forms 
of  Application  for  aid  from  the  Board  of  Relief,  in  which 
claimants  for  support  are  required  to  give  certain  facts  con- 
cerning their  circumstances,  but  these   forms  have   seemed 


Annual  Report  of  the  Board  of  Relief.  9 

to  be  an  absolute  necessity.  Before  they  were  adopted  it 
was  discovered  that  some  of  the  least  needy  were  receiving 
the  largest  appropriations,  because  they  could  write  the  most 
appealing  letters. 

We  are  glad  to  report  that  the  changes  made  in  the 
rules  by  the  last  Assembly  are  working  very  satisfactorily. 
Persons  over  65  years  of  age  are  not  now  required  to  fill 
up  the  Forms  of  Application  every  year,  as  formerly,  but 
those  under  65  (who  are  comparatively  few  in  number) 
are  required  by  the  General  Assembly  to  do  so,  because  it 
has  been  found  that  there  are  many  changes  in  the  circum- 
stances and  needs  of  these  relatively  younger  persons. 

If  the  Board  is  to  be  successful  in  raising  money,  it 
must  have  the  fullest  confidence  of  the  Church  at  large  that 
the  money  given  is  wisely  used.  The  people  who  give  their 
money  for  the  support  of  needy  ministers  and  their  families 
have  a  right  to  know  that  their  gifts  are  fairly  and  justly 
distributed.  We  are  therefore  sure  that  those  who  have 
claims  for  support  will  not  think  it  a  great  hardship  to  fill 
these  forms,  as  required  by  the  General  Assembly,  when  by 
so  doing  they  materially  help  the  Board  in  securing  the  con- 
fidence of  the  churches  and  larger  contributions  to  its  treas- 
ury. 

For  a  preacher  to  be  penniless  in  his  old  days  is  no  sin, 
but  it  is  an  unspeakable  inconvenience,  and  there  is  nothing 
wrong  in  saying  he  needs  support.  The  pastor  needs  sup- 
port, and  says  so  without  any  sense  of  shame,  and  many  a 
retired  minister  needs  support,  and  it  is  no  disgrace  to  such 
a  minister  to  tell  his  brethren  in  Presbytery  that  he  is  in 
need.  It  is  no  humiliation  to  accept  of  support  from  the 
general  treasury  of  the  Church  through  a  Board  organized 
especially,  as  its  charter  says,  "For  the  relief  and  support 
of  disabled  ministers  and  the  needy  widows  and  orphans  of 
deceased  ministers  of  said  Church,"  but  it  is  a  humiliation 
to  the  Church  that  she  does  not  provide  better  salaries  foi 
her  ministers  in  active  service  and  better  support  for  those 
who  are  in  need  in  their  days  of  disability,  through  no  fault 
of  their  own. 

It  is  more  of  a  credit  than  a  humiliation  to  an  aged 
minister  that  he  is  poor.  It  shows  that  he  has  been  faithful 
to  his  solemn  vows  and  sacred  trust,  and  that  he  has  given 
himself  wholly  to  the  work  to  which  he  was  called  of  God. 

Whilst  the  Church  gives  so  little  to  Ministerial  Relief, 
the  money  collected  must  be  distributed  fairly  and  justly, 
in  such  a  manner  as  to  give  a  proportionate  and  an  equitable 


lo  Anmuil  Report  of  the  Board  of  Relief. 

support  to  all  who  are  in  need ;  and  to  distribute  the  money 
received  in  this  manner,  the  Forms  of  Application  will  remain 
an  imperative  necessity,  to  give  to  the  Standing-  Committee 
of  each  Presbytery,  and  also  to  the  Board,  the  facts  upon 
which  they  must  base  their  judgment  as  to  the  amount  each 
claimant  should  receive. 

THE  MERRIAM  HOME. 

There  have  been  i8  guests  at  The  Merriam  Home  dur- 
ing the  past  year. 

According  to  the  wish  of  Mr.  Merriam,  the  Presbytery 
of  Newton  appoints  each  year  a  Standing  Committee  to  take 
the  general  oversight  of  the  property  willed  to  the  Board 
of  Relief  by  Mr.  Merriam.  That  Committee  consists  of 
the  following  persons  for  the  present  year : 

Rev.  Clarence  W.  Rouse,  Newton,  N.  J.,  Chairman. 

Rev.  E.  a.  Hamilton,  Sussex,  N.  J. 

Rev.  W.  S.  C.  Webster,  D.  D.,  Andover,  N.  J. 

Rev.  Wm.  G.  Westervelt,  Beemerville,  N.  J. 

Prof.  Philip  S.  Wilson,  Newton,  N.  J. 

Hon.  Henry  C.  Hunt,  Sussex,  N.  J. 

Mr.  J.  D.  Flock,  Hackettstown,  N.  J. 

The  Executive  Committee  appointed  by  the  Standing 
Committee  consists  of  the  following  persons : 

Rev.  Clarence  W.  Rouse,  Chairman; 
Prof.  Philip  S.  Wilson,  Treasurer; 
Hon.  Henry  C.  Hunt,  Secretary. 

This  Committee  has  very  kindly  consented  to  act  as 
the  local  Board  of  Managers  of  the  Home,  and  their  serv- 
ices have  been  most  highly  appreciated  by  the  Board  of 
Relief  and  also  by  the  guests  in  the  Home. 

The  Merriam  Home  is  a  beautiful  building  in  the  center 
of  four  acres  of  ground  handsomely  laid  out,  and  it  is 
located  in  the  beautiful  hill  country  in  the  northern  part  of 
the  State  of  New  Jersey,  in  the  county  seat  of  Sussex 
County. 

We  endeavor  to  have  a  good  table  for  the  guests.  We 
have  an  excellent  matron  and  a  superior  physician  to  look 
after  their  welfare,  and  everything  possible  is  done  to  give 
the  Home  the  air  and  freedom  of  a  private  residence ;  and 
we  wish  very  much  that  more  of  our  ministers  would  avail 
themselves  of  its  comforts  and  privileges.

OVERTURE  FROM  THE  PRESBYTERY  OF 
PITTSBURGH. 

Overture  No.  83,  from  the  Presbytery  of  Pittsburgh,  asking  the 
General  Assembly  so  to  enlarge  and  modify  the  Board  of  Ministe- 
rial Relief  that  it  shall  embrace  the  work  of  the  Sustentation  Fund, 
also  to  modify  the  scope  of  the  Sustentation  Fund : 

Whereas,  Two  schemes  of  Ministerial  Sustentation  in  opera- 
tion at  the  same  time  tend  to  paralyze  the  beneficence  of  the  Church 
and  must  result  in  the  final  extinction  of  the  one  or  the  other;  and, 

Whereas,  The  exclusion  of  ministers  over  sixty  years  of  age, 
and  of  ministers  who  could  not  pass  medical  examination,  from 
the  benefits  of  a  fund  that  appeals  to  the  churches  for  support  is 
unwise  and  unjust;    and, 

Whereas,  It  is  possible  to  include  in  the  Ministerial  Relief 
Board  all  that  is  good  in  the  Ministerial  Sustentation  Fund ; 

The  Presbytery  of  Pittsburgh  respectfully  overtures  the  Gen- 
eral Assembly,  in  session  at  Kansas  City,  so  to  enlarge  and  modify 
the  power  and  scope  of  the  Board  of  Ministerial  Relief  that  it 
shall  take  the  place  of  the  Ministerial  Sustentation  Fund,  and  so 
to  modify  the  scope  of  the  Sustentation  Fund  that  it  shall  make 
provision  for  all  ministers,  without  regard  to  age,  and  that  it  shall 
become  operative  at  the  beginning  of  the  ecclesiastical  year,  April  i, 
1909,  or  at  some  definite  period  in  the  near  future. 

Answer  of  the  Presbyterian  Board  of  Relief  for  Dis- 
abled Ministers  and  the  Widows  and  Orphans  of  Deceased 
Ministers  to  the  General  Assembly  concerning  this  over- 
ture: 

The  Board  of  Relief  in  response  to  Overture  No.  83 
from  the  Presbytery  of  Pittsburgh,  referred  to  it  by  the 
General  Assembly  of  1908,  reports  that  it  is  of  opinion  that 
it  is  impossible  so  to  enlarge  and  modify  the  Board  of 
Ministerial  Relief  that  it  should  embrace  the  work  of  the 


12  Annual  Report  of  the  Board  of  Relief. 

Sustentation  Fund,  and  bases  its  opinion  upon  the  follow- 
ing answers  of  the  Board  of  Relief  and  of  the  Committee 
of  the  Ministerial  Sustentation  Fund  to  the  joint  conference 
of  those  organizations,  and  upon  the  following  communica- 
tion of  the  Board  of  Relief  to  the  Committee  on  Administra- 
tive Agencies. 

I.  Answer  of  the  Board  of  Relief  to  joint  con- 
ference: 

The  General  Assembly  at  its  meeting  held  in  May,  1908, 
took  the  following  action : 

Overture  No.  83,  from  the  Presbytery  of  Pittsburgh,  asking  the 
General  Assembly  so  to  enlarge  and  modify  the  Board  of  Minis- 
terial Relief  that  it  shall  embrace  the  work  of  the  Sustentation  Fund, 
also  to  modify  the  scope  of  the  Sustentation  Fund.  It  is  recom- 
mended that  this  Overture  be  referred  to  the  Board  of  Relief  and 
the  Ministerial  Sustentation  Fund,  with  instructions  to  confer  on 
the  matter  and  report  to  the  next  Assembly.     Adopted. 

In  consequence  of  the  above  reference,  the  Adminis- 
trative Committee  of  the  Ministerial  Sustentation  Fund  and 
The  Presbyterian  Board  of  Relief  for  Disabled  Ministers 
and  the  Widows  and  Orphans  of  Deceased  Ministers  held 
a  joint  meeting  or  conference  on  December  17th,  1908, 
and  at  said  joint  meeting  or  conference  the  following  action 
was  taken : 

Resolved,  That  the  Board  of  Ministerial  Relief  be  requested  to 
answer  in  writing  the  question  as  to  whether  the  Board  of  Relief 
can  so  enlarge  and  modify  its  power  and  scope  as  to  include  the 
Ministerial  Sustentation  Fund,  and  that  the  Committee  on  the  Min- 
isterial Sustentation  Fund  be  requested  to  answer  in  writing  the 
same  question,  the  answers  to  be  submitted  to  another  meeting  of 
the  Joint  Committee. 

• 

At  a  subsequent  meeting  held  February  i8th,  1909, 
The  Presbyterian  Board  of  Relief  for  Disabled  Ministers 
and  the  Widows  and  Orphans  of  Deceased  Ministers,  made 
the  following  answer  in  writing  to  the  question  submitted 
in  the  above  resolution  of  the  joint  meeting  or  conference : 

This  Board  being  informed  that  the  purposes  of  the 
Ministerial  Sustentation  Fund  are  the  following,  as  set  forth 
in  its  application  to  the  Court  of  Common  Pleas  of  Phila- 
delphia County  for  a  charter,  filed  on  December  20th,  1908 : 

The  purpose  of  the  corporation  is  the  maintenance  of  a  society 
for  beneficial  or  protective  purposes  to  its  members,  from  funds  col- 


Annual  Report  of  the  Board  of  Relief.  13 

lected  therein,  by  providing  and  paying  old  age  or  disability  bene- 
/  fits  to  its  members,  who  must  be  ministers  of  the  Presbyterian 
Church  in  the  United  States  of  America,  and  by  providing  and  pay- 
ing benefits  to  the  widow  of  any  of  them,  and,  in  the  event  of  her 
death,  by  paying  benefits  to  the  minor  children,  in  accordance  with 
the  rules  that  may  be  adopted  by  the  corporation  and  approved  by 
the  General  Assembly  of  the  Presbyterian  Church  in  the  United 
States  of  America ; 

and  it  being  further  stated  in  said  application  for  a  charter 
as  follows : 

The  said  corporation  shall  have  no  capital  stock,  and  shall  be 
maintained  by  rates,  dues,  contributions,  by  gift,  bequest  or  devise, 
in  accordance  with  rules  adopted  by  the  General  Assembly  of  the 
Presbyterian  Church  in  the  United  States  of  America ; 

and  the  purposes  of  The  Presbyterian  Board  of  Relief  for 
Disabled  Ministers  and  the  Widows  and  Orphans  of  De- 
ceased Ministers  being  as  set  forth  in  its  charter : 

The  purpose  for  which  this  corporation  was  formed  is  to  re- 
ceive, hold  and  disburse  such  real  and  personal  estate  as  may  be 
given  to  it  for  the  relief  and  support  of  disabled  ministers  and  the 
needy  widows  and  orphans  of  deceased  ministers  of  the  said  Church ; 

and  being  advised  by  counsel  that  the  purposes  of  the 
Ministerial  Sustentation  Fund  and  of  the  Presbyterian  Board 
of.  Relief  for  Disabled  Ministers  and  the  Widows  and 
Orphans  of  Deceased  Ministers,  as  set  forth  in  their  re- 
spective proposed  charter,  and  charter,  are  such  as  the  laws 
of  Pennsylvania  will  not  permit  to  be  combined  in  one 
charter,  or  the  business  as  therein  set  forth  to  be  transacted 
by  one  corporation,  answers  that  the  Board  of  Relief  cannot 
so  enlarge  and  modify  its  power  and  scope  as  to  include 
the  Ministerial  Sustentation  Fund. 

II.  Answer  of  the  Administrative  Committee  of 
THE  Ministerial  Sustentation  Fund  made  upon  the 
15TH  day  of  February,  1909. 

February  15th,  1909. 
The  Administrative  Committee  of  the  Ministerial  Sus- 
tentation Fund  begs  to  convey  the  following  answer  to  the 
question  submitted  to  it  at  the  joint  meeting  of  the  Board 
of  Relief  and  this  Committee,  held  on  December  17th,  1908 : 

(i)  That  while  we  fully  recognize  the  importance  of  combin- 
ing, as  a  matter  of  economy  as  much  as  possible,  under  one  admin- 
istration, it  is  a  question,  where  interests  are  diverse  and  lead  almost 
to  diametrically  opposite  directions  in  accomplishing  the  same  end, 


14  Anmial  Report  of  the  Board  of  Relief. 

whether  it  would  do  to  combine  ReHef  and  Sustentation  under  one 
administration.  Aside  from  this,  two  members  of  the  legal  pro- 
fession, who  are  members  of  the  Board  of  Relief,  presented  legal 
difficulties  which  seem  to  be  conclusive,  because  they  cannot  be  over- 
come either  by  amendment  of  charter  or  obtaining  of  new  charter 
under  the  existirig  laws.  We  venture,  however,  to  suggest  that 
the  Board  of  Relief  give  formal  answer  to  the  legal  difficulties  in- 
volved. 

(2)  That  such  modifications  in  the  provisions  of  the  Ministerial 
Sustentation  Fund  as  are  suggested  in  the  overture  from  the  Pres- 
bytery of  Pittsburgh  to  the  General  Assembly,  and  which  was  the 
occasion  of  the  Assembly's  action  in  ordering  a  conference  of  this 
Committee  with  the  Board  of  Relief,  would  be  destructive  to  the 
Fund  and  the  principles  upon  which  it  is  based,  those  of  equity  and 
justice,  and  would  result  in  a  condition  similar  to  that  experienced 
by  all  organi/:ations  which  have  attempted  to  provide  benefits  in 
defiance  of  the  established   laws  of  mortality,   disability,  etc. 

Communication    from    the    General    Assembly's 
Committee  on  Administrative  Agencies. 

The  Presbyterian  Board  of  Relief  for  Disabled  Ministers 
and  the  Widows  and  Orphans  of  Deceased  Ministers,  hav- 
ing received  from  the  Committee  of  the  General  Assembly 
on  Administrative  Agencies  a  communication  dated  Feb- 
ruary 2d,  1909,  containing  the  following  preamble  and  reso- 
lution adopted  by  the  said  Committee  on  January  29th, 
1909 : 

Whereas,  The  General  Assembly  has  referred  to  its  Special 
Committee  on  Administrative  Agencies  the  consideration  of  ques- 
tions concerning  the  readjustment  and  reorganization  of  the  Work 
of  the  Boards  and  Agencies  of  our  Church  ;  and 

Whereas,  The  Board  of  Ministerial  Relief  and  the  General 
Assembly's  Administrative  Committee  on  the  Ministerial  Susten- 
tation Fund  are  now  considering  kindred  subjects  in  connection  with 
Ministerial  aid  or  pensions ;   and 

Whereas,  The  said  Committee  on  Administrative  Agencies  de- 
sires to  solicit  the  cooperation  of  the  Board  of  Ministerial  Relief 
and  the  Administrative  Committee  on  the  Ministerial  Sustentation 
Fund  in  an  effort  to  devise  a  plan  for  the  creation  of  a  single  agency 
of  the  Church  whose  function  shall  be  to  acquire  adequate  funds 
for  the  grant  of  pensions  to  the  ministers  of  our  Church  and  their 
widows  and  orphans : 

Therefore,  Resolved,  That  the  said  Committee  on  Administra- 
tive Agencies  hereby  respectfully  invites  the  Board  of  Ministerial 
Relief  and  the  Administrative  Commi.ttee  on  the  Ministerial  Susten- 
tation Fund  to  consider,  at  their  joint  meeting  soon  to  be  held,  the 
question  of  the  creation  of  such  a  single  agency  as  is  hereinabove 
suggested,  and  to  advise  the  Committee  on  Administrative  Agen- 
cies by  the  time  of  its  next  meeting  on  March  3rd,  1909,  what  they 
may  deem  to  be  wise  and  practicable  in  the  premises ; 

respectfully  replies : 


Annual  Report  of  the  Board  of  Relief.  15 

That  it  has  considered  the  question  of  the  creation  of 
a  single  agency  of  the  Qiurch  whose  function  shall  be  to 
acquire  adequate  funds  for  the  grant  of  pensions  to  the 
ministers  of  our  Church  and  their  widows  and  ^rphans, 
and  that  it  has  conferred  with  the  Administrative  Committee 
on  the  Ministerial  Sustentation  Fund  upon  the  same  ques- 
tion, and  is  of  opinion  that  no  plan  can  be  devised  "for  the 
creation  of  a  single  agency  of  the  Church  whose  function 
shall  be  to  acquire  adequate  funds  for  the  grant  of  pensions 
to  the  ministers  of  our  Church  and  their  widows  and 
orphans" ; 

That  this  Board,  being  a  corporation  acting  under 
powers  clearly  defined  and  limited  by  law,  cannot  enter  into, 
or  take  part  in,  any  plan  which  contemplates  the  granting 
of  pensions   [see  below  statement  concerning  "Pensions"]  ; 

That,  if  this  should  be  attempted,  it  would  be  contrary 
to  law  and  would  imperil  the  funds  now  held  by  this  Board 
and  used  in  the  work  for  which  it  was  created ;  and,  there- 
fore, it  is  neither  wise  nor  practicable  in  the  premises  for  it 
to  consider  any  such  plan. 

In  support  of  the  opinion  above  expressed,  the  Board 
of  Relief  attaches  hereto  the  several  answers  of  The  Presby- 
terian Board  of  Relief  and  of  the  Administrative  Com- 
mittee of  the  Ministerial  Sustentation  Fund,  to  the  following 
resolution  adopted  at  a  conference  of  the  said  Board  and  of 
the  said  Committee  on  the  17th  day  of  December,  1908, 
which  said  answer  set  forth  in  detail  the  views  of  the  con- 
ferees on  the  question  submitted. 

To  this  communication  it  attached  the  above  Answers, 
I  and  II,  pages  12  and  13. 

By  way  of  explanation,  it  also  attaches  the  following 
statement  concerning  "Pensions." 

"Pensions." 

While  the  mere  name  given  to  a  sum  of  money  paid 
is  of  no  special  significance  or  importance,  whether  it  be 
called  a  pension  or  annuity  or  an  appropriation,  yet  it  is  a 
matter  of  vital  importance  whether  the  sum  so  paid  be  an 
amount  which  the  one  who  pays  be  compelled  to  pay  by 
the  one  who  receives,  If  the  plan  of  the  Ministerial  Sus- 
tentation Fund,  as  outlined  in  its  charter,  be  carried  out, 
the  beneficiaries  are  compelled  to  pay  certain  sums  into  the 
treasury  of  the  Fund,  and  upon  the  fulfillment  of  the  pre- 
scribed conditions  bv  the  beneficiarv,  the  Fund  is  under  a 


1 6  Anniuil  Report  of  the  Board  of  Relief. 

legal  obligation  to  pay  certain  definite  sums,  and  if  these 
amounts  be  not  paid,  the  beneficiaries  can  bring  suit  for  the 
amount  due. 

The  Board  of  Relief  does  not,  and  under  its  charter 
cannot,  make  a  contract  to  pay  a  beneficiary  a  definite  sum. 
It  annually  appropriates  and  distributes  its  funds  among 
the  persons  for  the  relief  of  whom  it  was  chartered.  If 
the  number  of  beneficiaries  increases  and  the  fund  for  dis- 
tribution does  not,  then  the  share  of  each  beneficiary  is 
lessened.  Should  this  Board  agree  to  pay  specified  sums 
to  certain  beneficiaries  for  life,  and  the  amount  of  the 
funds  should  decrease  in  subsequent  years  and  the  bene- 
ficiaries increase,  then  there  would  be  some  for  whose 
benefit  the  Board  was  organized  who  could  receive  noth- 
ing. Apart  from  the  question  of  the  legal  right  of  a  cor- 
poration such  as  the  Board  of  Relief  to  make  a  binding 
contract  to  pay  a  definite  sum  to  a  beneficiary  for  life,  and 
apart  from  the  question  of  imperiling  the  endowment  or 
permanent  funds  of  this  Board,  is  this  very  serious  situa- 
tion, which  might  readily  occur,  in  which  funds  raised 
for  all  the  disabled  and  dependent  of  the  Church  could  be 
used  for  the  benefit  of  only  a  portion  of  them  with  whom 
the  Board  had  made  specific  contracts.  These  questions, 
of  course,  would  not  arise  in  a  corporation  created  for  the 
specific  purpose  of  making  such  contracts. 

THE  COLUMN  HEADED  "RELIEF  FUND.'^ 

At  the  meeting  of  the  General  Assembly  at  Kansas  City, 
Mo.,  the  fourth  resolution  of  the  Report  of  the  Administra- 
tive Committee  of  the  Ministerial  Sustentation  Fund  read 
as  follows : 

"Resolved,  That  the  gifts  to  the  Fund  be  reported  in  the 
column  headed  'Ministerial  Relief,'  and  the  heading  be 
changed  to  'Relief  and  Sustentation.'  "  (The  column  is  not 
headed  'Ministerial  Relief,'  but  'Relief  Fund.') 

The  General  Assembly  referred  this  resolution  to  the 
Committee  on  the  Sustentation  Fund  and  the  Board  of 
Ministerial  Relief.  On  this  subject  the  Board  took  the  fol- 
lowing action : 

The  members  of  the  Board  of  Relief  object  very 
seriously  to  changing  the  column  headed  'Relief  Fund'  to 
'Relief  and  Sustentation'  for  four  reasons : 

I.  They  object  to  the  proposed  change  because  it  would 
practically  eliminate  from  the  goodly  company  of  the  Boards 


Annual  Report  of  the  Board  of  Relief.  17 

of  the  Church  in  the  columns  of  the  Minutes  of  the  General 
Assembly  one  of  the  Assembly's  long-established  and  suc- 
cessful agencies. 

The  reports  of  church  collections  to  no  other  Board 
are  mingled  and  confounded  with  the  work  of  any  com- 
mittee or  authorized  agency  of  the  General  Assembly,  and 
we  think  that  the  distinctive  work  of  the  Board  of  Relief 
should  not  be  placed  in  this  peculiar  and  unfortunate  rela- 
tion. 

2.  To  unite  these  two  distinct  causes  under  one  head 
in  the  Minutes  of  the  Assembly  would  be  to  unite  two 
separate  and  distinct  causes  in  the  minds  of  the  people,  as 
if  they  were  one  cause,  when  it  is  clearly  asserted  that 
'Sustentation  stands  for  one  idea,  and  Relief  stands  for 
another.'  The  causes  are  essentially  different,  or  Sustenta- 
tion would  not  have  been  inaugurated,  and  these  causes 
should  be  separately  reported  that  the  churches  may  know 
definitely  what  is  done  for  each  cause. 

3.  Already  there  is  great  confusion  in  the  minds  of  the 
people  in  reference  to  these  two  causes,  and  churches  are 
sending  their  collections  to  the  wrong  treasurers,  and  the 
reporting  of  the  receipts  for  these  two  causes  under  one 
head  will   increase  this  confusion. 

4.  If  the  two  causes  should  be  united  under  one  head, 
it  would  be  impossible  to  tell  from  the  Minutes  of  the  As- 
sembly how  much  had  been  contributed  to  Relief  and  how 
much  to  Sustentation,  and,  therefore,  the  report  of  two  col- 
lections in  one  column  would  be  utterly  useless. 

At  a  joint  meeting  of  the  Board  of  Relief  and  the 
Committee  on  the  Sustentation  Fund,  held  February  15th, 
1909,  the  views  of  the  Board  of  Relief  were  presented 
and  the  proposed  change  was  fully  considered,  and  the  fol- 
lowing resolution  was  unanimously  adopted  at  a  joint  con- 
ference of  the  Board  of  Relief  and  the  Committee  on  the 
Ministerial  Sustentation  Fund : 

"Resolved,  In  relation  to  No.  4,  page  227  of  the  Minutes 
of  the  General  Assembly  for  1908,  referred  to  this  con- 
ference by  the  Assembly,  That  any  change  in  the  heading 
of  the  column  entitled  'Relief  Fund'  in  the  statistical  reports 
of  the  Presbvteries  be  considered  inadvisable." 


i8  Annual  Report  of  the  Board  of  Relief. 

ANSWER  TO  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY  CONCERN- 
ING THE  OVERTURE  FROM  THE  CINCINNATI 
PRESBYTERY. 

Overture  No.  8i,  to  the  last  General  Assembly  from  the  Presby- 
tery of  Cincinnati,  with  reference  to  an  increase  in  the  endowment 
of  the  Board  of  Ministerial  Relief : 

In  view  of  the  statement  made  by  the  Board  of  Ministerial 
Relief  to  several  recent  General  Assemblies,  vis.:  "That  if  the 
Board  had  its  permanent  endowment  increased  to  *  $4,000,000  and 
over,  it  could  then  raise  the  honorarium  paid  ministers  from  $300 
a  year  to  $500  a  year,  and  the  amount  paid  widows  from  $150  a 
year  to  $300  a  year" ;  and  in  view  likewise  of  the  unexampled 
prosperity  and  wealth  that  the  Lord  has  poured  out  upon  the 
country  and  the  Church, 

The  Presbytery  of  Cincinnati  would  respectfully  overture  the 
General  Assembly  to  take  such  steps  as  may,  in  its  judgment,  seem 
best  to  increase  as  speedily  as  possible  the  endowment  of  the  Board 
of  Ministerial  Relief  to  $4,000,000. 

The  Committee  on  Bills  and  Overtures,  to  which  this 
overture  was  referred,  brought  in  a  recommendation,  which 
was  adopted  and  is  as  follows : 

That  the  Assembly  approves  the  purpose  of  the  overture,  and 
refers  it  to  the  Board  of  Ministerial  Relief,  to  report  to  the  next 
Assembly,  as  to  any  method  of  securing  the  desired  end. 

In  its  Annual  Report  to  the  General  Assembly  in  1902, 
the  Board  of  Relief  strongly  urged  an  increase  in  its  Perma- 
nent Endowment  Fund,  in  order  that  it  might  furnish  a 
better  support  to  the  retired  ministers  of  our  Church  and 
to  the  families  of  our  deceased  ministers. 

The  General  Assembly  then  adopted  the  following 
resolutions : 

Resolved,  I.  That  the  Board  of  Relief  is  commended  to  the 
churches  for  an  additional  endowment  to  the  amount  of  $1,000,000, 
and  that  all  pastors,  ministers  in  charge  of  churches,  and  church 
sessions  are  in-ged  to  further  the  interests  of  the  Board  by  special 
appeals  for  the  Permanent  Fund,  as  well  as  by  annual  collections 
for  current  funds. 

Resolved,  2.  That  the  Board  of  Relief  be  authorized  to  take  the 
necessary  steps,  and  if  deemed  advisable,  to  appoint  special  repre- 
sentatives, to  secure  the  proposed  increase  of  the   Permanent  Fund. 

At  the  same  meeting  of  the  Assembly,  at  which  the 
foregoing    action    was    taken,    the    Special    Committee    on 


[*The   Board  said  if   its  Permanent    Fund    were    increased    by    $4,000,000, 
thus  making  it   $6,000,000,   it   could  pay   the   amounts   specified.] 


Annual  Report  of  the  Board  of  Relief.  19 

Ministerial  Relief,  of  which  Hon.  William  P.  Potter  was 
Chairman,  made  a  report  favoring  "a  scheme  of  general 
sustentation,"  and  said  that  "The  Committee  does  not  feel 
that  any  Board  of  the  Church  has  any  present  relation  to  a 
Plan  of  Sustentation,  either  in  its  charter,  in  the  intention 
of  the  Church,  or  by  its  history.  It,  therefore,  believes  that 
the  best  way  of  procedure  in  this  matter  will  be  by  the 
appointment  of  a  special  committee  by  the  Assembly  to 
consider  the  whole  subject  of  sustentation  apart  from  any 
existing  Church  agency." 

Whereupon  the  Assembly  adopted  the  following  resolu- 
tion : 

Resolved.  3.  That  a  Special  Committee  of  ten,  five  ministers 
and  five  elders,  be  appointed  by  the  Moderator,  who  shall  take  into 
consideration  the  whole  subject  of  Ministerial  Sustentation.  This 
Committee  is  authorized  to  consider,  among  other  things,  the  ad- 
visability of  the  adoption  of  a  general  plan  of  sustentation. 

This  Committee  of  ten  was  appointed  with  Rev.  Dr. 
Howard  Duffield,  of  New  York,  as  Chairman,  and  great 
expectations  were  awakened  by  the  appointment  of  this 
Committee. 

When  the  Board  of  Relief  learned  that  it  was  the  hope 
of  members  of  this  Committee  that  a  general  plan  of 
sustentation  could  be  adopted,  somewhat  resembling  the 
plan  of  the  Church  of  Scotland,  that  would  provide  a  better 
support  both  for  pastors  and  for  ministers  after  their  re- 
tirement from  active  service,  it  thought,  at  that  time,  that 
it  w^as  not  "advisable  to  appoint  special  representatives  to 
secure  the  proposed  increase  of  the  Permanent  Fund,"  lest 
our  representatives  might  interfere,  or  even  appear  to  inter- 
fere, with  the  work  of  the  Special  Committee  on  Sustenta- 
tion. 

The  Standing  Committee  of  the  General  Assembly  of 
1905,  in  its  report,  favored  an  increase  of  the  Endowment 
Fund  of  the  Board  of  Relief  by  the  amount  of  $4,000,000. 
but  offered  no  recommendation  to  that  effect,  and  no  action 
was  taken.  At  the  same  Assembly,  the  Special  Committee 
of  ten  reported  a  detailed  and  definite  plan  for  providing  an- 
nuities for  our  ministers  and  their  families  under  the  title 
of  "The   Presbyterian   Ministerial   Sustentation   Fund." 

In  1908,  the  Presbytery  of  Cincinnati  sent  its  overture 
to  the  General  Assembly,  "asking  the  Assembly  to  take 
action  looking  to  the  raising  of  the  Endowment  of  the 
Board   to   the   sum   of  $4,000,000,"   and   the   Assembly   re- 


20  Annual  Report  of  the  Board  of  Relief. 

ferred  this  overture  to  the  Board  of  Relief  "to  report  to 
the  next  Assembly  as  to  any  method  of  securing  the  desired 
end." 

The  Administrative  Committee  on  the  Ministerial  Sus- 
tentation  Fund  having  adopted  a  plan,  three  years  ago,  for 
the  insurance  of  the  lives  of  our  ministers,  the  ministers  to 
pay  one-fifth  of  the  premiums,  or  dues,  and  the  churches 
to  pay  the  four-fifths,  and  having  their  agents  in  the  field, 
visiting  ministers  and  churches,  if  possible,  to  put  the  new 
scheme  into  operation ;  and  as  $20,000,000  will  be  required 
to  secure  annuities  of  $500  a  year  for  all  our  retired 
ministers,  and  $300  a  year  for  the  widows  of  ministers,  and 
a  yearly  amount  for  dependent  orphans,  the  Board  of 
Relief  has  not  deemed  it  advisable  to  appoint  special  repre- 
sentatives to  secure  the  proposed  increase  of  its  Permanent 
Fund,  as  it  has  not  thought  it  wise  to  have  agents  for  the 
two  causes  in  the  field  at  the  same  time.  If,  however,  the 
General  Assembly  thinks  it  advisable  for  the  Board  of  Relief 
to  send  out  special  representatives  at  the  present  time,  it 
will  gladly  and  promptly  do  so,  as  it  is  very  anxious  to  have 
its  Endowment  Fund  largely  increased,  so  that  it  can 
materially  increase  the  annual  sums  to  pay  to  the  needy  and 
deserving  families  now  upon  its  roll,  and  to  the  many  more 
who  will  inevitably  be  dependent  upon  the  Board  for  their 
support. 

The  term  of  the  following  Directors  expires  at  this  meeting  of 
the  Assemblj' : 

Rev.  SAMUEL  T.  LOWRIE,  D.  D. 

Rev.  PHILIP  H.  MOWRY,  D.  D. 

HENRY  L.  DAVIS,  Esq. 

ROBERT  H.  SMITH,  Esq. 

Four  Directors  are  to  be  elected  at  this  meeting  to  fill  the  class 
whose  term  expires  at  this  time. 

By  order  of  the  Board, 

B.  L.  Agnew, 
Corresponding  Secretary.

Annual  Report  of  the  Board  of  Relief.  21 


RULES  OF  THE  BOARD 
Adopted  by  the  General    Assembly. 

APPKOPRIATIONS. 

1.  Only  members  of  Presbyteries  in  connection  with  the  General 
Assembly  of  our  Church  and  the  families  of  those  who  were  at  their 
death  in  such  connection,  and  lay  missionaries  and  their  families,  are 
entitled  to  aid;  and  no  adults  shall  be  entitled  to  aid  who  are 
not  members  of  the  Presbyterian  Church  in  the  United  States  of 
America  in  good  and  regular  standing,  or  who  do  not  acknowledge 
the  jurisdiction  of  said  Church  nor  submit  to  its  discipline,  unless 
such  extraordinary  circumstances  should  exist  as  to  make  it,  in 
the  judgment  of  the  Board,  wise  and  right  to  admit  their  claim. 

2.  The  General  Assembly  of  1889  says :  "This  Board  works 
under  strictly  defined  limitations.  It  is  not  a  general  eleemosynary 
institution.  It  cannot  care  for  all  the  poor  in  the  Church,  or  even 
in  the  ministry.  Its  basis  of  work  is  not  need,  but  service  to  the 
Church."  The  General  Assembly  of  1890  directed  that  no  appro- 
priation can  be  made  to  ministers  in  ordinary  cases,  simply  because 
they  are  poor,  unless  they  are  disabled  by  disease  or  the  infirmities 
of  age,  so  as  to  be  unable  to  sustain  themselves  by  some  suitable 
employment.  (Minutes  of  General  Assembly,  1870,  p.  21,  and  1889, 
P-  32.) 

3.  The  General  Assembly  of  1880  directed  "That,  in  the  case  of  a 
minister  who,  voluntarily  and  in  health,  leaves  the  work  of  the  min- 
istry for  some  secular  employment,  and  follows  that  for  a  series 
of  years,  and  then,  by  failure  of  business,  has  come  to  want,  such  a 
course  should  ordinarily  be  regarded  as  a  voluntary  relinquishment 
of  all  claim  upon  the  funds  of  the  Board."  (Minutes  of  General 
Assembly,  1880,  p.  21.) 

4.  All  appropriations  are  made  for  one  year,  unless  otherwise 
ordered ;  and  the  renewals  for  appropriations  must  be  made  from 
year  to  year,  except  in  case  of  ministers  honorably  retired  according 
to  the  provisions  of  Rule  7. 

5.  All  the  appropriations  are  paid  in  advance,  provided  the 
funds  of  the  fioard  will  allow  this  to  be  done.  If  the  appropriation 
is  not  more  than  one  hundred  and  fifty  dollars  it  is  paid  in  advance 
in  one  payment.  When  an  appropriation  is  more  than  one  hundred 
and  fifty  dollars  per  annum  it  is  paid  in  two  equal  instalments,  semi- 
annually  in   advance. 

6.  While  the  responsibility  of  recommending  applicants  rests 
with  the  Presbyteries,  and  these  recommendations  largely  govern 
the  action  of  the  Board,  yet  there  is  reserved  to  the  Board  the  right 
to  appropriate  according  to  the  merits  of  the  case  and  the  state  of 
the  treasury. 

HONORABLY  RETIRED    MINISTERS, 

Who  have  been  in  active  service  in  the  Presbyterian  Church  thirty 

years  in  the  aggregate  as  Missionaries,  Pastors,  or  Stated 

Supplies. 

7.  Every  honorably  retired  minister  over  seventy  years  of  age, 
who  is  in  need,  and  who  has  served  our  Church  as  missionary  of  the 


22  Animal  Report  of  the  Board  of  Relief. 

Home  or  Foreign  Board,  or  of  the  Board  of  Missions  for  Freedmen, 
or  as  pastor,  or  stated  supply,  for  a  period  in  the  aggregate  not  less 
than  thirty  years,  shall  be  entitled  by  such  service  to  draw  from  the 
Board  of  Ministerial  Relief  an  annual  sum  for  his  support  without 
the  necessity  of  being  annually  recommended  therefor  by  the  Pres- 
bytery. When  such  a  minister  shall  certify  to  the  Presbytery  the 
fact  and  amount  of  his  need,  not  exceeding  $300.00  per  annum,  it 
shall  be  the  duty  of  the  Stated  Clerk  to  forward  the  application  to 
the  Board,  with  his  indorsement  thereon  as  to  the  years  of  service 
such  minister  has  rendered,  his  field,  or  fields  of  labor  with  the  term 
of  service  in  each,  and  his  need,  as  determined  by  his  income  and 
circumstances,  and  also  to  certify  that  the  same  has  been  reported 
to  the  Presbytery  and  is  recorded  upon  its  minutes.  It  shall  then 
be  the  duty  of  the  Board  to  pay  such  annual  amount  so  long  as  the 
applicant  shall  live,  unless  otherwise  directed  by  the  Presbytery  or 
the  applicant  himself,  in  view  of  a  change  in  his  circumstances  that 
may  make  the  appropriation  in  whole  or  in  part  no  longer  necessary. 
(Minutes  of  General  Assembly  of  1889,  p.  32;  1891,  p.  33  and  p.  44; 
1894.  p.  35.) 

See  form  of  application.  No.  6,  p.  29. 

DISABLED   MINISTERS, 

Who  have  not  been  in  the  aggregate  thirty  years  in  active  service  in 

the  Presbyterian  Church  as  Missionaries,  Pastors,  or  Stated 

Supplies,  or,  if  so,  are  not  seventy  years  of  age. 

8.  An  annuity  to  a  minister  who  has  not  been  in  the  aggregate 
thirty  years  in  active  service  in  the  Presbyterian  Church  as  a  mis- 
sionary of  the  Home  or  Foreign  Board,  or  of  the  Board  of  Missions 
for  Freedmen,  or  a  pastor  or  stated  supply,  or  having  been  thirty 
years  in  active  service  is  not  yet  seventy  years  of  age,  is  granted 
on  the  recommendation  of  that  Presbytery,  or  of  a  standing  com- 
mittee of  that  Presbytery,  to  which  the  applicant  belongs ;  and  the 
recommendation  in  each  case  must  be  annually  renewed.  An  appli- 
cation for  aid,  in  case  of  such  minister,  should  state  his  age,  his 
circumstances,  and  the  number  of  years  he  has  been  in  the  ministry; 
whether  his  wife  is  living  or  not,  and  the  sex  and  age  of  the  children 
who  are  dependent  on  him  for  support. 

See  form  of  application,  No.  i.  p.  25. 

MEDICAL   MISSIONARIES. 

9.  Regularly  appointed  Lay  Missionaries  who  have  gone  out 
from  this  country  under  commission  from  the  Foreign  Board,  and 
their  families,  shall  after  five  years  of  active  service  also  be  placed 
upon  the  roll  of  the  Board  upon  the  same  conditions  as  ministers. 
In  their  application  for  aid.  Medical  Missionaries  and  their  families 
shall  be  governed  by  the  rules  that  apply  to  ministers  and  their 
families.  (Minutes  of  General  Assembly  of  1889,  p.  32,  and  Report 
of  Board  in  Minutes  of  Assembly  of  the  same  year,  p.  240.) 

See  form  of  application.  No.  4.  p.  28. 

MINISTERS    COMING    FROM    OTHER   DENOMINATIONS    AND   THEIR   FAMILIES. 

10.  Ministers  from  other  denominations  coming  into  our  Church, 
or   their   widows   or   orphans,   shall   not   be   placed   upon   the   roll   of 


Annual  Report  of  the  Board  of  Relief.  23 

this  Board  as  beneficiaries  unless  said  ministers  shall  have  rendered 
active  service  in  this  Qiurch  for  at  least  five  years.  [This  rule  is 
not  retroactive,  but  is  operative  from  May  21st,  1904.] 


11.  A  woman  who  has  given  herself  to  missionary  work  after 
five  years  of  actual  service  under  the  Home  Board,  or  under  the 
Board  of  Missions  for  Freedmen,  or  who  has  gone  out  from  this 
country  and  labored  under  commission  from  the  Foreign  Board, 
may  receive  aid  from  this  Board  upon  the  same  conditions  as  a 
minister.  She  may  be  recommended  by  the  Presbytery  in  the  bounds 
of  which  she  resides,  or  by  the  Presbytery  having  jurisdiction  of 
the  church  of  which  such  missionary  may  be  a  member,  and  her 
application  should  have  the  endorsement  of  the  Board  under  which 
she  has  held  a  commission.  (Minutes  of  General  Assembly  of  1884, 
p.  48;  1885,  p.  592;  1888,  p.  33;  1889,  p.  32;  1894,  p.  35.) 

See  form  of  application,  No.  4,  p.  28. 

12.  If  the  application  for  aid  be  for  a  widow  of  a  minister,  it 
may  be  made  by  the  Presbytery  within  whose  bounds  the  family 
resides,  or  by  that  Presbytery  in  which  the  family  is  best  known, 
or  preferably  by  the  Presbytery  with  which  her  husband  was  con-

Unless  the  applicant  is  well  known,  the  Committee  of  Minis- 
terial Relief  should  always  secure  the  endorsement  of  the  session

she  needs  and  is  deserving  of  the  aid  for  which  application  is  made.

ORPHANS. 

16.  Aid  may  be  given  to  orphans  of  ministers  and  lay  mission-

they  are  able  to  earn  their  own  living ;  and  in  exceptional  cases  to 
orphans  who  have  been  from  early  years  chronic  invalids,  or  to  those 
who  have  become  chronic  invalids  in  consequence  of  their  care  of 
aged  and  infirm  parents.  The  same  rule  applies  in  case  of  orphans 
asking  for  aid,  as  in  the  case  of  other  beneficiaries  of  the  Board 
in  regard  to  recommendations  and  annual  renewals.  (Minutes  of

The  General  Assembly  of   iS8o,  page  21,  says: 

"Whereas,  This  Board  has  been  requested  to  aid  ministers  who  are 
merely  out  of  employment,  etc.,  and 

"Whereas.  The  fund  is  not  sufficient  for  such  purposes,  nor  was  it 
originally  designed  for  such  uses,   therefore, 

"Resolved,  That  no  appropriations  can  be  made  to  ministers  in  or- 
dinary cases,  simply  because  they  are  poor,  unless  they  are  disabled 
by  disease  or  the  infirmities  of  age,  so  as  to  be  unable  to  sustain  them- 
selves   by   some   suitable   employment." 

The  General  Assembly  of   1889,   page  32,  says: 

"This  Board  works  under  strictly  defined  limitations.  It  is  not  a 
general  eleemosynary  institution.  It  cannot  care  for  all  the  poor  in  the 
Church,  or  even  in  the  ministry.  Its  basis  of  work  is  not  need,  but 
service  to   the   Church.

TWENTY-EIGHTH  ANNUAL  REPORT 

OF 

THE  CUMBERLAND 
PRESBYTERIAN 
BOARD  OF  RELIEF 


THE  TWENTY-EIGHTH  ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE 

BOARD  OF  RELIEF  OF  THE  CUMBERLAND 

PRESBYTERIAN  CHURCH  TO  THE 

GENERAL  ASSEMBLY  OF  THE 

PRESBYTERIAN  CHURCH 

U.  S.  A.  OF  1909. 

As  President  of  the  above  named  corporation,  I  beg 
leave  to  submit  as  a  part  of  my  report  the  Annual  Report 
of  the  Secretary  and  Treasurer  of  the  Board,  Mr.  S.  B, 
Sansom. 

The  General  Assembly  doubtless  understands  that  all  of 
the  property  held  by  this  Board  in  its  corporate  capacity,  as 
well  as  carrying-  forward  the  interests  of  the  Board,  with- 
out any  change  of  title  to  any  of  the  property,  was  deemed 
best  until  all  matters  of  difference  involving  litigation  should 
first  be  disposed  of  in  the  courts.  That  is  to  say,  the  policy 
of  the  Church  with  reference  to  this  particular  Board  was 
defined  as  follows : 

That  the  present  corporate  existence  of  the  Board  of 
Relief  of  the  Cumberland  Presbyterian  Church  with  its  in- 
vestments should  remain  without  change,  and  that  whatever 
aid  the  General  Assembly  saw  fit  to  extend  to  this  Board 
should  be  entirely  voluntary,  without  incurring  any  legal  or 
other  responsibility  for  the  conduct  of  the  corporate  business 
of  the  said  Board,  and  to  this  end,  that  if,  in  the  final  adjust- 
ment of  all  legal  controversies,  it  should  be  held  by  the  courts, 
that  the  union  of  the  two  Churches  did  not  carry  the  title 
to  the  property  held  by  this  Board,  then  the  present  Board 
would  be  in  condition  to  surrender  the  same  to  whoever 
might  be  adjudged  as  legally  entitled  to  it,  without  in  any 
wise  involving  any  other  interests.  Accordingly  the  present 
Board  is  in  position  to  carry  out  this  line  of  policy,  and 
could  any  day  turn  over  all  property  in  its  possession 
just  as  when  received,  except  as  hereinafter  explained.  This 
Board  has  on  hand  every  dollar  of  the  endowment  hitherto 
received  and  has  in  its  possession  all  of  the  property  belong- 
ing to  the  Board,  except  the  old  Home  near  Evansville, 
which  was  destroyed  by  fire  in  January,  1908.  The  Board 
owns  ten  acres  of  ground  near  the  city  of  Evansville.  but

after  careful  consideration  it  was  deemed  wise,  and  as  con- 
serving the  best  interests  of  the  Church,  to  secure  a  site  of 
'fifty  acres  which  was  offered  to  the  Board  at  conservative 
figures  at  Newburgh,  Ind.,  and,  instead  of  rebuilding  on  the 
old  site,  to  construct  the  future  Home  at  Newburgh,  which 
is  reached  from  Evansville  by  a  traction  line,  as  set  forth 
in  the  report  of  last  year.  On  these  grounds,  now  called 
"Thornton  Place,"  a  new  building  has  been  erected  and  fur- 
nished. The  grounds  with  the  improvements  thereon  origi- 
nally cost  $9,700.  We  have  expended,  in  addition,  approxi- 
mately $10,000  for  buildings,  $2,000  for  improving  the 
grounds  and  $1,500  for  furnishings,  making  a  total  cost  of 
$23,000.  To  pay  this  the  Board  expects  to  use  the  insur- 
ance money  which  has  been  paid  into  court,  amounting  to 
$5,993.30,  and  to  sell  the  old  site,  for  which  an  offer  has  been 
made  of  $7,000.  We  hope  however  to  realize  $10,000.  This 
will  leave  a  difference  of  $  ,  which  will  be  paid  from 

the  Endowment  Fund  in  the  hands  of  the  Board.  Awaiting 
the  collection  of  this  insurance,  and  this  disposition  of  the  old 
site,  we  are  temporarily  provided  to  meet  the  outlays  by  a 
loan.  All  of  which  has  been  done,  and  the  policy  outlined, 
carried  out  without  in  any  wise  involving  any  other  funds 
than  those  belonging  to  this  Board. 

The  new  building  was  dedicated  on  the  third  day  of 
January,  1909,  and  is  now  occupied,  with  Mrs.  Anna  Wing, 
a  daughter  of  the  late  Rev.  James  Hawthorne,  for  forty 
years  pastor  of  the  First  Presbyterian  Church  of  Princeton, 
Kentucky,  as  matron.  There  are  at  this  time  fourteen 
guests  at  the  Home.  The  building  has  sixteen  rooms,  with 
large  halls  and  verandas  and  beautiful  grounds.  It  is  on  an 
elevation  overlooking  the  Ohio  River  and  the  surrounding 
country,  and  is  greatly  admired  by  all  who  have  visited  it. 
The  guests  are  made  very  comfortable,  which  they  appreciate 
to  the  fullest.  They  are,  one  and  all,  perfectly  contented  and 
happy,  and  the  most  convincing  proof  in  favor  of  the  main- 
tenance of  this  institution  is  a  visit  to  the  Home  itself;  to 
see  these  old  people  thus  cared  for  and  happy  as  they  can 
be,  with  the  mighty  past  behind  them,  is  sufficient  reward 
for  those  who  contribute  to  their  comfort,  either  in  money 
or  time,  revealing  to  the  world  the  beauty  and  value  of  the 
Christian  religion. 

Certain  gentlemen,  acting  under  authority  of  the  Gen- 
eral Assembly  of  the  Cumberland  Presbyterian  Church,  so- 
called,  held  at  Dixon,  Tenn.,  on  the  day  of 

,  assuming:  to  constitute  the  trustees  of  the  Board  of 


Report  of  the  Cumberland  Board  of  Relief.  5 

Ministerial  Relief  of  the  Cumberland  Presbyterian  Church, 
in  its  corporate  name,  instituted  a  suit  against  the  Dubuque 
Fire  and  Marine  Insurance  Company  of  Dubuque,  Iowa,  to 
recover  upon  the  policies  issued  by  that  company  upon  the 
property  destroyed  by  fire,  as  above  stated.  The  present 
members  of  this  Board,  who  have  held  offices  by  virtue  of 
previous  elections,  and  were  at  that  time,  and  still  are,  in 
possession  of  all  the  property  belonging  to  the  Board,  and 
are  carrying  out  the  purposes  for  which  it  was  organized, 
petitioned  to  be  made  parties  to  this  suit.  Thereupon  the 
insurance  company  filed  its  petition  to  remove  the  case  to 
the  Circuit  Court  of  the  United  States  for  the  District  of 
Indiana,  filed  its  interpleader  against  both  claimants,  and  this 
Board  thereupon  filed  its  cross-complaint  against  the  origi- 
nal plaintiffs.  It  thus  devolves  upon  the  said  Circuit  Court 
of  the  United  States  to  determine  which  of  the  two  con- 
tending parties  constitutes  the  legal  Board,  and  the  money 
having  been  paid  into  court  will  be  ordered  paid  to  which- 
ever of  the  two  contending  factions  the  court  may  adjudge 
constitutes  the  lawful  Board.  In  order  to  do  so  it  will  be 
necessary  for  the  court  to  determine  whether  the  union  of 
the  two  Churches  has  been  legally  consummated.  The  case 
has  been  argued  and  is  now  pending  before  the  court  for 
decision.  There  is,  at  the  same  time,  pending  before  the 
Appellate  Court  of  Indiana  the  question  of  the  legality  of 
this  union,  as  presented  by  an  appeal  in,  the  two  cases  of 
Ramsey  v.  Hicks  and  Ulay  v.  Bentle,  In  each  of  these  the 
lower  court  held  that  the  Union  had  been  legally  consum- 
mated. One  of  these  cases,  (Ramsey  v.  Hicks)  was  re- 
versed on  the  23rd  of  April.  Sixty  days  are  allowed  for 
the  filing  of  petition  for  rehearing.  The  decisions  of  the 
Appellate  Court  of  Indiana  are  final,  with  a  few  exceptions. 
The  statute  governing  appeals  from  the  Appellate  to  the 
Supreme  Court  of  the  State,  I  think,  admits  of  an  appeal  from 
this  decision.  The  language  of  the  statute  on  this  subject 
is  as  follows : 

"If  a  petition  for  a  rehearing  is  filed  by  any  losing  party,  in 
any  case  in  either  of  said  divisions  of  the  appellate  court,  and  said 
petition  is  overruled,  the  clerk  of  said  court  shall  not  certify  the 
opinion  and  judgment  in  said  case,  to  the  lower  court,  until  the 
expiration  of  thirty  days  from  the  date  of  said  ruling. 

"Said  party  may  at  any  time  within  thirty  days  after  his  peti- 
tion for  a  rehearing  has  been  overruled,  file  in  the  supreme  court  an 
application  for  the  transfer  of  the  case  to  the  supreme  court,  on  the 
ground  that  the  opinion  of  said  division  of  the  appellate  court,  con- 
travenes a  ruling  precedent  of  the  supreme  court,  or  that  a  new  ques- 
tion of  law  is  directly  involved  and  was  decided  erroneously." 


6  Report  of  the  Cumberland  Board  of  Relief. 

Since  the  opinion  was  handed  down,  no  consultation 
has  been  had  by  counsel  representing  the  Unionists'  side  of 
the  controversy  in  either  of  these  cases.  But  the  question 
involved  is  of  so  much  importance  that  I,  as  one  of  the 
counsel,  shall  strongly  urge  the  filing  of  a  petition  for  a 
rehearing,  failing  in  which,  then  a  transfer  of  the  case  to 
the  Supreme  Court.  I  am  of  the  opinion  that  the  decision 
of  the  Appellate  Court  does  "contravene  a  ruling  preced- 
ent of  the  Supreme  Court."  If  the  Supreme  Court  has  not 
already  settled  the  law,  as  I  think  it  has,  contrary  to  the 
decision  of  the  Appellate  Court,  then  "a  new  question  of 
law  is  directly  involved."  So  in  either  case,  it  would  seem 
that  the  right  to  transfer  is  quite  clear. 

The  question  of  the  legal  constitution  of  this  Board  is 
pending  in  the  Federal  Court  in  the  insurance  case  above, 
and  it  makes  no  difference  what  the  final  decision  may  be  in 
the  Supreme  Court  of  this  State,  the  decision  of  the  Federal 
Court  will  settle  the  question  of  the  legality  of  the  Union 
in  so  far  as  it  affects  the  constitution  of  the  Board. 

During  the  past  year  the  Board,  through  its  executive 
officers,  by  correspondence  and  visitations,  has  sought  espe- 
cially to  increase  the  number  and  amount  of  contributions 
to  the  general  cause  of  relief.  Acting  in  this  respect  under 
the  direction  and  as  agent  of  the  Philadelphia  Board,  con- 
tributions, in  the  main,  have  been  remitted  direct  by  the 
contributors  to  the  Philadelphia  Board.  Where  the  same 
have  come  to  the  Treasurer  of  this  Board  he  has  remitted 
to  the  Philadelphia  Board ;  such  sums  aggregate  about 
$500.  We  are  endeavoring  to  educate  the  various  churches 
to  make  all  remittances  directly  to  the  Philadelphia  Board, 
and  have  no  doubt  that  within  a  short  while  this  purpose 
will  be  carried  out.  This  Board  expresses  the  opinion  that 
there  is  a  growing  interest  in  the  cause  throughout  the  en- 
tire Southwest,  and  when  all  disputes  shall  have  been  ended 
and  the  members  of  the  Church  settle  down  to  quiet  busi- 
ness, our  people  will  do  their  full  duty  in  the  way  of  con- 
tributions to  the  cause  of  Ministerial  Relief,  and  in  every 
other  respect  support  the  Board  in  extending  and  carrying 
forward  its  great  work.

Forty-Fourth  Annual  Report 

OF     THE 

BOARD    OF    MISSIONS 
FOR    FREEDMEN 

OF     THE 

Presbyterian   Church 

IN   THE    UNITED   STATES    OF   AMERICA 
TO     THE 

General  Assembly  of  the  Presbyterian  Church 
from  march  31.  1908  to  april  1,  1909 


The  Board  of  Missions  for  Freedmen  respectfully  presents 
to  the  General  Assembly  its  Forty-fourth  Annual  Report. 

We  have  again  closed  our  fiscal  year  without  any  outstanding 
financial  obligations;  but  we  have  only  succeeded  in  doing  so 
by  steadily  discouraging  any  effort  at  expansion  that  would 
mean  additional  expense,  and  by  deferring  some  needed  and  con- 
templated enlargements  that  must  yet  be  carried  out  just  as  soon 
as  the  condition  of  our  treasury  will  permit. 

The  serious  falling  off  in  our  receipts  the  year  before,  compelled 
us  to  take  account  of  this  shortage  in  planning  for  the  year  that 
has  just  closed.  Accordingly  before  the  usual  requests  for 
additional  help  that  come  up  to  us  at  the  opening  of  each  new 
year,  had  reached  us,  notice  was  sent  out  that  the  Board  would 
with  regret  be  compelled  to  adopt  certain  restrictive  measures, 
in  order  to  prevent  further  serious  financial  embarrassment, 
and  at  the  same  time  not  inflict  permanent  injury  on  the  whole 
work. 

These  restrictive  measures  were  as  follows: 

First. — That  in  reducing  expenses  the  curtailment  was  to  be 
made  as  far  as  possible,  this  year,  in  real  estate  expenditures, 
rather  than  in  the  closing  of  schools,  or  in  the  reduction  of 
salaries. 

Second. — That  no  new  schools  were  to  be  opened  that  would 
entail  additional  expense  upon  the  Board. 


Board  or  Missions  for  Freedmen. 


Third. — That  no  additional  teachers  were  to  be  employed  in 
any  of  our  schools,  at  the  Board's  expense. 

Fourth. — That  no  extension  of  any  school  term  was  to  be 
granted  this  year,  beyond  the  time  allowed  last  year. 

Fifth. — That  no  salaries  were  to  be  increased  over  the  amount 
granted  last  year. 

Sixth. — That  all  congregations  and  schools  occupying  build- 
ings belonging  to  the  Board,  were  to  look  after  their  own  repairs 
as  part  of  their  running  expenses. 

These  cautionary  measures,  while  not  lessening  the  extent  or 
efficiency  of  our  work,  have  in  the  nature  of  things  held  back 
some  of  the  growth  and  expansion  that  otherwise  would  have 
come  about.  They  also  materially  reduced  the  expenses  for 
the  year. 

Notwithstanding  this  repressive  policy  which  the  Board  was 
compelled  reluctantly  to  adopt,  the  number  of  our  schools 
increased  during  the  year  from  one  hundred  and  fourteen  to 
one  hundred  and  twenty-three;  but  they  added  no  additional 
expense.  This  was  accomplished  by  the  Board's  request  that 
ministers  with  small  charges,  which  could  not  possibly  take  up 
all  their  time,  should  spend  part  of  their  spare  time  in  maintain- 
ing church  schools  in  connection  with  their  ministerial  labors, 
as  effective  helps  in  building  up  their  work.  In  some  cases 
ministers  without  waiting  for  the  suggestion  to  come  from  the 
Board,  have  themselves  seen  the  advantage  of  this  course  and 
have  voluntarily  gathered  the  children  of  the  members  of  their 
churches  and  congregations  for  daily  instruction,  not  only  in  the 
common  branches  of  education,  but  for  daily  instruction  in  the 
Bible  and  Catechism,  a  feature  of  training  not  emphasized  in  the 
State  schools,  but  essential  to  the  formation  of  character,  and 
the  training  up  of  the  young,  both  for  the  life  that  now  is,  as 
well  as  that  which  is  to  come. 

During  the  past  year  the  churches  through  their  annual  col- 
lections gave  us  $2,026.43  more  than  the  year  before.  The 
Sunday  Schools  gained  $524.00.  The  Young  People's  Societies 
fell  behind  $100.32.     The  Woman's  Societies  gained  $2,739.79. 

The  receipts  from  Miscellaneous  Sources  fell  behind  $3,418.71, 
and  those  from  invested  funds  advanced  $614.86.  The  increase 
from  legacies  was  $10,898.50. 

The  number  of  churches  that  helped  us  in  any  one  way  this 
year  was  5,753,  an  increase  of  468,  as  compared  with  last  year. 
The  number  of  churches  that  helped  us  by  congregational 
collections  was  4,775,  a  gain  of  405  churches.

The  amount  of  money  given  to  church  work  on  the  field,  in- 
cluding church  building,  repairs,  Contingent  expenses  and 
Ministerial  support,  as  reported  to  us  by  our  ministers  was 
$67,670.17. 

The  amount  given  by  the  patrons  and  friends  of  our  school 
work,  as  reported  this  year  from  the  field  was  $72,414.  The 
total  amount  gathered  for  both  Church  and  School  work  on  the 
field,  and  reported  to  the  Board,  but  in  no  way  going  into  our 
treasury,  or  in  any  way  included  in  the  Treasurer's  statement  of 
receipts  and  expenditures  was  $140,084.17. 

In  addition  to  this,  the  churches  under  the  care  of  the  Board 
gave  through  their  annual  congregational  collections  $1,039.52 
to  the  Freedmen  Board;  and  to  the  other  Boards  of  the  church 
they  gave  $2,342.95. 

Taking  the  amount  raised  on  the  field  for  Church  and  School 
purposes,  and  adding  to  it  the  amount  given  by  the  churches  to 
the  Benevolent  Boards  of  the  church,  we  have  a  sum  total  of 
$143,466.64  passing  through  the  hands  of  our  ministers,  elders 
and  teachers  on  the  field  and  expended  by  themselves  directly 
and  indirectly  for  their  own  good  in  their  own  communities; 
and  for  the  good  of  others  in  other  parts  of  our  own  land  and 
the  world. 


Board  of  Missions  for  P^reedmen. 


Attention  should  be  called  to  the  fact  that  in  making  up  the 
above  estimates  we  have  included  a  number  of  churches  that 
were  for  many  years  under  the  care  of  the  Board,  but  are  now 
in  the  self-supporting  list ;  and  also  the  fact  that  there  are  a  few 
of  these  self-supporting  churches  whose  figures  we  do  not  have, 
since  regular  reports  from  them  are  no  longer  made  to  our  Board. 

Every  effort  is  made  on  the  part  of  the  Board  to  impress  on 
both  ministers  and  people  that  what  the  Board  gives  toward  the 
ministers'  support  is  not  meant  to  be  a  living  salary,  but  only 
as  supplementary  to  whatever  salary  the  minister  is  receiving 
from  his  people,  and  that  this  supplementary  aid  is  not  meant 
to  be  permanent,  but  is  liable  to  be  reduced  any  year,  and  even 
entirely  withdrawn,  should  it  seem  wise  in  the  mind  of  the  Board 
to  do  so — for  the  good  of  the  work. 

It  is  encouraging  to  know  that  there  are  many  hard  working, 
consecrated  and  self-denying  men  on  the  field,  who  are  striving 
and  praying  for  the  time  when  the  churches  under  their  care' 
can  stand  alone.  There  are  also  many  churches  that  will  hail 
with  joy  the  day  when  they  can  place  their  names  on  the  self- 
supporting  list.  That  many  of  the  churches  are  not  lacking  in 
their  efforts  toward  self  help  is  apparent  when  it  is  seen  that  this 
last  year  $67,670  was  raised  on  the  field  and  expended  solely 
for  church  purposes. 

It  is  gratifying  too  to  note  that  the  list  of  churches  that  no 
longer  receive  aid  from  the  Board,  and  are  now  standing  alone, 
is  increasing  from  year  to  year. 

There  are  now  a  goodly  number  of  churches  which  the  Board 
formerly  assisted  that  are  maintaining  themselves;  some  of 
them  with  ease,  and  others  wdth  great  and  self-denying  effort. 

Some  'of  them  have  themselves  volunteered  to  undertake  self- 
support,  and  others  on  account  of  the  rnany  years  they  have  been 
helped,  have  been  urged  by  the  Board  to  make  the  effort.  Some 
have  been  caring  for  themselves  for  a  number  of  years,  while 
only  last  year  as  many  as  seventeen  churches  were  added  to  the 
list.  A  few  singly  and  alone  support  the  minister  who  gives  to 
them  his  whole  time,  while  others  in  groups  of  two  or  three,  are 
combined  for  the  accomplishment  of  this  same  purpose. 

The  names  of  these  churches  should  go  on  record,  and  we 
herewith  submit  them,  as  an  incentive  to  continuance  in  well- 
doing, and  as  an  encouragement  to  others  to  follow  their  example.

under  the  ministry  of  Rev.  J.  R.  Riley,  D.  D. 

In  most  of  these  cases  the  ministers  receive  their  entire  sup- 
port from  the  churches  they  serve,  and  in  a  few  cases  the  mini- 
ster's support  is  supplemented  in  other  ways  than  from  the 
Treasury  of  the  Board. 

An  examination  of  the  list  will  show  that  thirty-one  churches 
this  year  are  supporting  their  own  gospel  ordinances,  all  of  them 
having  formerly  been  nourished  and  strengthened  with  help 
from  the  Board.  There  are  also  a  number  of  other  churches 
receiving  now  only  nominal  support,  that,  it  is  hoped,  will  soon, 
perhaps  this  coming  year,  be  added  to  the  roll  of  self-supporting 
churches.

10  Board   of   Missions   for   Freedmex 

The  new  dormitory  for  girls,  in  connection  with  the  Julia  B. 
Kendall  Academy,  at  Sumter,  S.  C,  the  building  of  which  had 
to  be  postponed,  for  reasons  mentioned  in  our  last  year's  report, 
was  commenced  early  last  summer  and  completed  in  time  for 
occupancy  in  the  fall,  at  a  cost  of  $5,000,  the  money  having  been 
previously  raised  for  that  purpose,  mostly  by  the  Woman's 
Societies  of  Indiana. 

A  much  larger,  and  greatly  needed  dormitory  for  girls  has 
been  built  this  winter  in  connection  with  Albion  Academy,  at 
Franklinton,  N.  C,  at  a  cost  of  $10,000,  including  equipment. 
It  will  be  brought  into  complete  service  at  the  opening  of  the 
school  in  the  fall.  It  will  be  greatly  appreciated  by  both 
teachers  and  scholars,  after  the  great  inconvenience  they  have 
suffered  for  two  years  from  overcrowding  since  the  burning  of 
two  small  buildings  they  formerly  used.  The  work  of  the  school 
will  be  greatly  facilitated  and  enlarged  through  the  use  of  this 
new  building,  which  is  worth  to  the  work,  all  the  money  that 
has  been  put  into  it.  The  money  was  raised  through  the 
Woman's  Department  of  the  Board,  and  came  through  the  New 
York  and  Pennsylvania  Societies. 

The  Biddle  Library  Endowment  Fund,  which  last  year,  as 
reported,  amounted  to  $3,945.75,  has  not  increased  very  much 
this  3^ear,  $1,220.55  has  been  added,  of  which  addition  $766.11 
was  given  by  colored  ministers  and  churches,  and  collected 
through  the  efforts  of  Rev.  H.  L.  McCrorey,  D.  D.,  President 
of  Biddle  University.  This  $766.11  given  by  the  colored 
people  themselves,  in  addition  to  all  they  have  done  in  other 
directions,  is  greatly  to  their  credit,  and  speaks  eloquently  of 
their  desire  to  see  the  Library  building  erected,  and  of  their 
deep  conviction  as  to  the  advantage  it  will  be  to  the  University 
and  to  their  race. 

The  offer  still  stands  good  that  a  $12,500  Library  building  will 
be  erected  on  Biddle  University  grounds,  after  an  Endowment 
Fund  of  $12,500  is  secured,  with  which  to  meet  the  expense  of 
maintenance,  when  once  the  building  is  completed.  We  still 
hope  and  pray  that  the  conditions  may  be  fulfilled  and  the 
building  secured  at  no  distant  day. 

Rev.  D.  J.  Satterfield,  D.  D.,  after  twenty-three  years  in  the 
service  of  the  Board,  twenty-two  of  which  were  spent  as  Presi- 
dent of  Scotia  Seminary,  Concord,  N.  C,  placed  his  resignation 
in  the  hands  of  the  Board,  asking  that  his  successor  might  be 
secured  before  the  opening  of  the  school  in  the  fall.  The  Board 
found  it  no  easy  task  to  secure  a  worthy  successor  to  Dr.  Sat- 


Board   of  Missions  for  Freedmf.n  11 

terfiold,  through  whose  long  and  fiiithful  services  Scotia  Semin- 
ary has  been  brought  up  to  such  a  high  degree  of  efficiency. 
The  services  of  Rev.  A.  W.  Verner,  D.  D.,  of  Pittsburgh,  Pa., 
a  brother  well  known  and  highly  esteemed  by  every  member 
of  the  Board,  was  secured,  but  not  in  time  to  take  hold  of  the 
work  at  the  beginning  of  the  term.  Dr.  Satterfield  kindly 
returned  to  the  work  for  one  month  in  the  fall,  much  to  his  own 
inconvenience,  and  greatly  to  the  accommodation  of  the  Board, 
and  on  November  1st,  Doctor  Verner  took  charge.  We  have 
seldom  had  a  more  important  place  to  fill  in  our  work,  and  we 
have  reason  to  feel  that  God  has  directed  us  in  the  choice  that 
has  been  made. 

At  the  death  of  Mrs.  Boggs,  a  year  ago,  Mrs.  Storer,  then  her 
assistant,  was  advanced  to  the  position  of  General  Secretary  of 
our  Woman's  Department,  and  since  then  for  nearly  a  year 
she  has  been  doing  the  whole  work  of  the  Department — a  work 
entirely  too  large  and  varied  for  any  one  person  to  carry  alone. 
On  the  first  of  February,  the  Board  appointed  Miss  Roberta 
Barr  of  Tyrone,  Pa.,  to  the  position  of  Assistant  to  Mrs.  Storer. 
Miss  Barr  at  the  time  of  her  appointment  was  a  teacher  in 
Mary  Holmes  Seminary,  West  Point,  Miss.,  and  was  given  up 
by  the  management  of  the  school  with  extreme  reluctance. 
She  has  been  rendering  service  acceptably  and  effectively  in  her 
new  position,  since  her  appointment. 

The  contributions  from  the  former  Cumberland  Presbyterian 
Churches,  that  have  cast  in  their  lot  with  the  Presbyterian 
Church,  U.  S.  A.,  have  materially  increased  this  year.  The 
union  in  some  places  has  been  so  complete  that  it  has  been  im- 
possible to  keep  track  of  the  'Cumberland'  contributions,  as 
distinguished  from  any  other  kind  of  contributions.  And  yet  it 
is  desirable  for  a  time  at  least  that  the  distinction  should  be 
kept  up,  as  all  such  contributions,  according  to  the  present 
understanding  are  to  accrue  to  the  advantage  of  the  work 
among  the  Colored  Cumberland  Presbyterians,  and  especially 
to  the  Colored  Cumberland  Presbyterian  School  at  Bowhng 
Green,  Ky.  The  amount  that  has  come  to  us  this  year  from 
this  source,  in  the  way  of  church  collections,  has  amounted  to 
$1,065.69.  The  appeal  made  to  the  Woman's  Societies  of  the 
former  Cumberland  Churches  for  the  $3,500.00  needed  to  pay 
for  their  dormitory  building  at  Bowling  Green,  Ky.,  did  not 
meet  with  a  very  hearty  response.  Only  $230.37  is  reported  as 
designated  for  this  purpose.  The  school  is  an  excellent  one. 
The  building  in  question  has  been  secured  at  a  bargain,  and  is

essential  to  the  life  and  growth  of  the  school,  and  the  Ladies' 
Societies  of  this  part  of  our  re-united  church  will  do  well  to  let 
this  enterprise  have  a  share  in  the  distribution  of  their  bene- 
factions. 

Our  Board  continues  to  support  a  Bible  Lecturer  and  Teacher 
in  that  school,  out  of  its  general  fund,  part  of  whose  duty  is  to 
give  instruction  in  the  Bible,  and  otherwise  aid  young  men 
seeking  the  ministr}''  in  the  Colored  Cumberland  Presbyterian 
Church. 

The  Woman's  Department  of  our  Freedman's  Board,  which  is 
known  among  the  societies  as  the  Freedman's  Departnmient  of 
the  Woman's  Board  has  again  rendered  us  indispensable  service. 
Mrs.  Susan  L.  Storer,  the  General  Secretary,  has  by  wise,  tactful 
and  tireless  effort,  completed  the  most  successful  year  of  ad- 
ministration this  department  has  ever  had.  The  total  amount 
of  funds  she  has  been  able  to  place  at  the  disposal  of  the  Board 
this  year  is  $75,076.63.  A  detailed  report  of  this  department 
of  our  work  is  given  in  Mrs.  Storer's  Annual  Report,  which  is 
printed  as  an  Appendix  to  this  report,  and  special  request  is 
made  that  it  be  carefully  read. 

One  item,  however,  of  Mrs.  Storer's  report  deserves  special 
mention.  An  aj^peal  was  made  for  a  Memorial  Fund  ^^^th 
which  to  perpetuate  the  memory  of  the  life  and  character  of 
Mrs.  Virginia  P.  Boggs,  the  late  General  Secretary  of  our  Wom- 
an's Department,  who  wrought  so  well  in  life  and  whose  name 
is  held  in  such  high  esteem  by  a  host  of  loving  and  loyal  friends. 

No  specific  amount  was  named,  but  $5,000  was  had  in  mind  as 
an  appropriate  sum,  and  $5,000  was  cheerfully  given. 

The  Board  will  take  special  pleasure  in  erecting  a  suitable 
Memorial  Building  in  connection  with  the  school  already  known 
as  Boggs  Academy,  near  Keysville,  Ga. — that  the  name  of  this 
good  woman  may  long  be  remembered  by  the  people  for  whose 
uplift  she  cheerfully  gave  some  of  the  best  3^ears  of  her  life 

The  whole  work  of  the  Board  has  moved  along  this  year  in  a 
way  that  gives  us  cause  for  devout  thankfulness. 

Our  school  work  was  never  in  better  condition,  and  better 
work  has  never  been  done  than  has  been  done  this  year. 

The  number  of  schools  has  increased,  as  has  been  men- 
tioned, from  one  hundred  and  fourteen  to  one  hundred  and 
twenty-three;  and  the  pupils  from  thirteen  thousand  five 
hundred  and  seventy-six  to  fourteen  thousand  five  hundred  and 
eighty,  nine  more  schools  and  one  thousand  and  four  more  pupils. 

Our  church  work  shows  signs  of  life  and  vigor  in  that  while 


Board   ok   Mission's   kok   Frkedmex  13 

the  number  added  on  examination  was  1879,  only  a  few  more 
than  last  year,  the  amount  raised  on  the  field  for  gospel  pur- 
poses was  S67,670.17,  an  increase  of  $14,983.76.  Besides  tliis, 
eighteen  churches  were  added  this  year  to  the  list  of  those  not 
receiving  any  aid  from  the  Board. 

As  to  the  quality  of  the  work  done,  mention  should  be  made  of 
the  voluntary  testimony  of  a  brother  minister  who  spent  last 
winter  in  the  South,  within  reach  of  some  of  our  schools  and  who 
on  his  return  wrote  us  that  he  had  recently  had  the  i^leasure  of 
visiting  three  of  our  co-educational  schools  and  added  "  I  want 
you  to  know  that  I  was  very  greatly  impressed  with  the  splendid 
work  being  done  there." 

Another  visitor  writes  us  concerning  one  of  our  large  schools 
for  girls  onlj^ :  "  It  is  a  wonderful  place  and  the  classroom  work 
there  is  of  the  best  I  have  ever  seen.  I  spent  Sunday  there  and 
enjoyed  every  minute.  It  requires  a  few  days  to  take  in  the 
scope  of  such  a  great  institution.  That  is  a  fine  suitable  chapel 
they  have,  and  to  look  into  the  faces  of  such  an  audience  and 
think  what  it  means  to  have  girls  being  so  trained,  is  very 
inspiring,  and  makes  one  full  of  hope  for  the  future  of  the  colored 
race.  So  systematic,  so  orderly  is  their  life,  that  it  is  perfectly 
fascinating  to  be  with  them." 

Concerning  our  church  work,  we  have  the  recent  testimony  of 
a  Southern  white  minister  who  visited  one  of  our  colored  Pres- 
byteries at  its  spring  meeting,  and  immediately  afterwards 
wrote  to  our  Board  his  impression:  "I  have  attended  such  of 
the  Sessions  as  time  has  permitted,  and  it  is  enough  to  make  us 
thankful  that  God  is  using  our  Presbyterian  family  to  gather 
such  men  into  the  fold.  This  week's  meeting  has  shown  me 
more  clearly  our  mighty  needs,  our  great  duties,  our  unmeasured 
opportunities  in  this  great  dark  family,  our  fellow-citizens,  and 
fellow  beings.  God's  purpose  is  that  'in  the  dispensation  of  the 
fulness  of  time  He  might  gather  together  in  one,  all  things  in 
Christ — even  in  Him.'  May  He  most  richly  bless  you  in  the 
share  you  have  accepted  of  co- working  with  Him." 

In  looking  back  over  the  year  that  is  just  passed,  and  over  the 
work  that  has  been  done  and  is  being  done  by  our  branch  of  the 
great  church  of  the  Living  Christ  toward  the  education  and  evan- 
gelization of  the  colored  people  of  the  South,  we  believe  we  have 
made  and  are  yet  making  a  distinct  contribution  toward  the 
ultimate  proper  solution  of  a  great  and  complex  problem.  This 
great  problem  has  twice  reached  up  and  touched  and  changed 
the  constitution  of  the  United  States.     It  touches  the  constitu- 


14  Board  of  Missions  for  Freedmen 

tions  of  the  various  states  in  which  these  people  are  massed  by 
the  milhons.  It  touches  pohtical  and  social  life.  It  touches 
commerce  and  trade,  capital  and  labor;  and  is  closely  inter- 
woven with  almost  everything  that  affects  the  life  and  pros- 
perity, and  possibly  the  perpetuity  of  our  nation. 

Happily  the  province  of  our  Board  is  not  to  concern  itself 
specifically  with  any  one  of  these  different  phases  of  this  mighty 
problem;  and  yet  every  one  of  them  may  be  brought  nearer  to 
their  true  solution  by  the  kind  of  work  this  Board  is  called  on  to 
perform. 

The  Board  of  Missions  for  Freedmen  is  single-hearted  in  its 
purpose.  It  desires  to  obey  God.  It  has  to  do  with  the  colored 
man  as  a  brother  in  distress;  as  a  fellow-human  being  needing 
help;   as  an  immortal  soul  needing  to  be  saved. 

It  answers  affirmatively  the  question:  'Am  I  my  brother's 
keeper?'  It  recognizes  the  command  of  our  Great  Captain: 
'Go  teach  all  nations!'  It  accepts  the  obligation  contained  in 
the  Scripture  statement:  'Ye  that  are  strong,  ought  to  bear  the 
burdens  of  the  weak.'  It  hopes  and  desires  that  all  of  the 
people,  for  whose  good  it  labors,  will  be  made  better  and  not 
worse;  will  be  led  out  of  moral  darkness  into  the  marvelous 
light  of  the  gospel  of  Christ,  and  in  their  daily  lives  "wdll  learn  to 
walk  humbly,  do  justly,  love  mercy,  fear  God,  and  keep  His 
commandments. 

Surely  work  of  this  kind  ought  to  commend  itself  to  every 
man's  conscience  in  the  sight  of  God. 

The  term  of  service  of  the  following  members  expires  with  this 
Assembly,  Rev.  D.  S.  Kennedy,  D.  D.,  Rev.  Maitland  Alex- 
ander, D.  D.,  Rev.  Samuel  J.  Glass,  D.  D.,  Mr.  Vincent  Miller. 

We  ask  that  they  be  re-elected. 

S.  J.  FISHER,  D.  D.,  E.  P.  COWAN, 

President.  Cor.  Sec.  and  Treas. 


Board   of   Missions  for   Freedmen.

ACTION  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY 


■AT- 


Denver,  Colorado,  May,  1909 


RESOLUTIONS 

First.  That  the  Minutes  of  the  Board  of  Missions  for  Freedmen 
be  approved. 

Second.  That  the  concise  and  yet  comprehensive  report  of  the 
Board  be  commended  to  the  thoughtful  study  of  pastors  and 
sessions,  as  a  stimulus  to  larger  and  more  sympathetic  co-operation 
in  this  department  of  our  Missionary  responsibility. 

Third.  That  the  Assembly  congratulates  the  Woman's  Board 
on  their  splendid  work  for  the  year,  and  wishes  these  elect  women 
Godspeed  in  all  their  efforts  for  the  Master. 

Fourth.  That  the  following  members  of  the  Board  whose 
terms  expire  with  this  meeting  of  the  Assembl}^  be  re-elected, 
viz:— Rev.  D.  S.  Kennedy,  D.  D.,  Rev.  Maitland  Alexander,  D.  D., 
Rev.  Samuel  J.  Glass,  D.  D.,  Rev.  J.  Kinsey  Smith,  D.  D.,  and 
Mr.  Vincent  Miller. 

Respectfully  submitted  in  behalf  of  the  Committee, 

W.  H.  PENHALLEGON,  Chairman. 

EXTRACTS  FROM  THE  COMMITTEE'S  REPORT 

"Your  Committee  on  Freedmen  with  the  little  time  at  its  com- 
mand for  the  preparation  of  its  Report  has  been  materially  aided 
and  its  work  greatly  simplified  by  a  study  of  the  complete  and  yet 
concise  report  of  the  Secretary  of  the  Board,  which  presents 
facts  and  figures  of  a  most  suggestive  and  interesting  character, 
which  are  in  themselves  an  argument  and  an  appeal  to  the  church 
for  larger  sympathy,  and  more  general  co-operation  in  this  too 
much  neglected  department  of  Missionary  activity. 

"It  must  never  be  forgotten  that  the  single-hearted  purpose  of 
the  Board  of  Missions  for  Freedmen  is  not  simply  to  train  the 
Negro  to  skill  in  handicraft,  but  to  exalt  him  in  the  scale  of  being, 
and  its  main  agency  to  this  end  is  Christian  Education. 

"That  the  Negro  needs  skill  and  intelligence  no  one  will  deny; 
but  his  intelligence  and  skill  should  be  dominated  by  an  abiding 
sense  of  right,  and  truth,  and  justice,  and  above  all  the  fear  and 
love  of  God. 

"In "no  spirit  of  boastfulness  it  may  be  said  that  it  is  recognized 

by  competent  investigators  that  the  Presbyterian  Church,  through 

its  Freedmen's  Board,  is  doing  work  second  to  none  to  fit  the  Negro 

common  citizenship,  and  to  be  the  educator  and  guide  of  his

TWENTY- FIFTH     ANNUAL     REPORT 

OF    THE 

Freedmen^s    Department 

OF    THE 

WOMAN'S  BOARD  of  HOME  MISSIONS 

513     BESSEMER     BUILDHnJG,     PITTSBURGH,     PA. 


Our  Silver  Anniversary  year  has  passed  away  quickly.  Its 
record  is  closed  and  we  present  it  to  you  as  best  we  can.  The 
influences,  the  prayers,  the  patient  plodding  and  perseverance  of 
the  many  who  have  shared  in  the  years  work  and  made  it  what 
it  is  cannot  be  told  here,  but  it  is  all  recorded  in  the  Book  of  Life. 

Your  prayers  and  your  alms  have  gone  up  to  God  as  a  mem- 
orial.    In  these  you  are  growing  rich  toward  God. 

We  can  come  together  with  praise  and  thanksgiving,  for 
through  your  efforts  we  can  report  an  advance  over  last  year  in 
contributions  of  $1,546.41.  The  total  amount  received  being 
$75,076.63.  In  this  year  of  "hard  times"  while  not  a  large 
amount,  it  is  sufficient  to  make  us  truly  grateful. 

The  financial  pressure  and  strain  has  been  severe  and  long,  yet 
our  schools  have  been  maintained  and  the  regular  work  supported, 
but  no  new  work  could  be  undertaken.  We  regret  this  very 
much,  fo]'  there  are  many  opportunities  unused  for  lack  of  funds. 

The  cost  of  living  and  of  fuel  have  advanced  much  and  it  is  a 
real  struggle  with  many  of  our  schools  to  meet  expenses.  This 
is  where  scholarship  aid  is  so  helpful.  It  aids  the  needy  student 
and  also  the  school  expenses. 

The  sources  of  support  for  our  department  are  Women's  and 
Young  People's  Societies,  Sabbath  Schools,  Bands  and  individual 
gifts.  Could  we  but  enlist  all  of  these  in  our  Presbyterian 
church  in  the  interest  of  the  negro — could  all  these  workers  have 
compassion  for  thesf  millions — hungry  for  the  Bread  of  Life,

what  a  mighty  work  could  be  done  in  this  vineyard  of  the  Master. 
What  a  beautiful  memorial  of  prayers  and  alms  would  go  up  to 
God! 

We  have  received  contributions  from  3,298  Women's  Societies, 
a  gain  of  186  over  last  year;  from  Young  People's  Societies, 
1,061  contributed,  a  loss  of  10  in  the  year;  821  Sabbath  Schools 
remembered  our  work,  a  gain  of  65.     Where  are  the  other  9,000? 

The  individual  gifts  have  not  been  so  large  through  the  year, 
and^several  hundred  dollars  came  in,  just  too  late  to  be  counted 
in  the  year's  receipts. 

The  whole  number  of  churches  contributing  to  our  Board  in 
any  way  is  5,783,  a  gain  of  468  over  last  year,  and  the  whole 
amount  of  the  Board's  receipts  is  $185,513.58.  This  is  a 
record  of  the  interest  shown  by  the  Presbyterian  Church  in 
its  Board  which  gives  the  gospel  to  the  Freedmen,  the  ten 
milHons  of  the  "backward  race"  in  our  Christian  land.  What 
has  been  given  is  a  blessing  to  the  race  and  accepted  of 
God.  The  contributions  to  our  Woman's  department  have  been 
expended  in  salaries,  scholarships  and  other  expenses  connected 
with  our  school  work.  A  few  buildings  were  damaged  by  severe 
windstorms  and  had  to  be  repaired. 

Our  schools  are  in  fiouiishing  condition — many  of  them  over- 
crowded and  needing  more  teachers,  they  are  busy  now  prepar- 
ing for  their  closing  excercises.  Our  advanced  schools  send  out 
graduates,  earnest  christians,  trained  and  prepared  to  fill  their 
places  as  teachers  or  laborers  in  the  various  lines  of  work  for 
which  they  are  fitted,  many  of  the  young  men  who  graduate 
have  the  preaching  of  the  gospel  in  view,  and  will  enter  our 
Biddle  Theological  department  or  some  other  Seminary  where 
they  can  prepare  especially  for  this  work.  Others  are  fitted  to 
take  up  various  lines  of  industrial  service. 

We  can  report  123  schools,  an  increase  of  9  over  last  year. 
These  new  schools  are  taught  by  ministers  in  their  churches 
without  additional  expense  to  the  Board. 

Of  these  123  schools  all,  except  8,  are  entirely  conducted  and 
carried  on  by  colored  teachers. 

This  should  be  an  encouragement  and  incentive  to  more 
earnest  work  on  the  part  of  the  church.  These  teachers  are  the 
fruits  of  the  forty  years'  labors  of  the  Board  in  educating  and 
training  the  race  since  the  emancipation.  That  it  is  possible 
to  equip  and  control  all  these  schools  with  the  product  of  the 
churches'  missionary  efforts  is  abundant  e\ddence  that  the  gospel 
truths  faithfully  sown  and  cultivated  will  bring  forth  fruit  an

hundred  fold,  a  wonderful  illustration  of  the  Saviour's  parable. 
We  are  now  in  the  second  generation  of  christian  training  and 
teaching,  and  the  work  will  increase  in  still  greater  ratio  if  the 
Board  can  have  the  means  to  meet  all  the  opportunities  and  use 
them  as  they  come. 

Our  schools  grow  rapidly,  and  in  one,  two  or  three  years  are 
filled  to  overflowing,  demanding  more  teachers  and  larger  ac- 
commodations, but  this  is  only  a  healthy  symptom,  and  our 
sources  of  supply  must  count  on  this  and  be  able  to  meet  the 
demands.  We  must  reach  out  more  and  more  with  the  leaven 
of  the.  gospel,  until  the  whole  mass  is  leavened,  and  this  means 
increased  funds  each  year,  to  have  this  the  uninterested  must  be 
reached  and  enlisted  in  the  cause.  There  is  wide  room  for  advance 
in  every  church  and  almost  unlimited  opportunities  in  the  field. 

Industrial  training  is  given  in  our  boarding  and  higher  schools 
as  much  as  is  possible  with  the  present  equipment,  much  better 
is  needed  and  calling  for  attention. 

The  spiritual  tone  is  good,  and  many  evidences  of  the  Holy 
Spirit's  control  of  the  lives  of  our  students  are  plainly  seen. 

The  eight  schools  under  the  control  of  our  white  teachers  are 
our  five  seminaries  for  girls,  Brainerd  and  Oak  Hill  academies, 
and  Mrs.  Neil's  parochial  school. 

The  management  at  Scotia  Seminary  has  had  a  change,  as 
Dr.  and  Mrs.  Satterfield,  who  have  been  there  so  many  years 
felt  the  burden  growing  heavier  than  they  were  able  to  bear, 
with  their  increasing  years,  and  their  resignation  was  reluctantly 
accepted,  and  their  work  handecF  over  to  Rev.  A.  W.  Verner, 
D.  D.,  and  wife,  appointed  by  the  Board,  and  who  seem  to  fit 
into  their  places  with  great  satisfaction  to  all.  The  high  stand- 
ard of  the  school  will  be.  maintained  and  it  will  still  be  the 
."Mecca"  for  many  girls.  There  is  always  a  full  house,  278 
students  and  a  waiting  list  of  from  50  to  100. 

The  dormitories  for  Albion  Academy  and  Kendall  School,  for 
which  money  was  given  were  delayed  somewhat  on  account  of 
the  financial  panic,  but  were  completed  a  few  months  ago,  and 
are  a  great  comfort  and  joy.  The  Albion  girls  had  been  espec- 
ially crowded  in  their  temporary  quarters,  and  are  delighted 
with  the  new  home.  These  schools  will  do  better  work  than 
ever  because  of  their  better  equipment,  and  the  influence  of  the 
"homeiness"  of  the  bright,  clean  rooms  and  the  home  life  will 
be  a  wonderful  education  in  itself  to  those  who  are  fortunate 
enough  to  be  students  there. 


196  Board  of  Missions  for  Freedmen. 

The  work  which  was  given  out  for  the  year  has  not  been  all 
completed.  Arkadelphia  building  was  a  special  object  two  years 
ago,  but  a  small  amount  only  was  realized,  so  it  was  necessary 
to  again  put  it  before  societies  and  we  are  glad  to  say  that  the 
full  amount,  $5,000,  is  now  available,  and  the  building  will  be 
erected  as  soon  as  arrangements  can  be  made. 

The  $5,000  asked  for  the  Savannah  school  building  is  far  from 
being  completed,  so  this  will  have  to  again  be  a  special  fund, 
as  the  Board  does  not  erect  buildings  until  the  money  for  such 
has  been  secured.  The  "Building  Fund"  has  not  been  fully 
met.  The  Silver  Anniversary  offering,  which  was  to  be  a 
memorial  to  Mrs.  Boggs  amounts  to  $5,000  and  will  be  used  to 
erect  a'school  building  at  ''Boggs  Academy,"  Keyesville,  Geor- 
gia. This  memorial  was  expected  to  be  an  extra  gift  over  and 
above  all  regular  contributions,  but  we  find  that  it  cut  into  our 
Building  Fund,  as  many  societies  designate  money  for  the 
Memorial  fund,  but  leave  out  the  Building  Fund  entirely.  A 
Freedmen  Building  Fund  will  again  be  given  out  for  this  years 
contributions  and  it  is  hoped  that  every  society  will  realize  that 
this  is  a  verj'  necessary  fund  and  give  it  a  share  of  their  gifts. 
There  are  so  many  buildings  and  improvements  needed  and  the 
only  way  we  can  supply  them  is  to  place  our  appeals  in  the  hands 
of  our  societies.  The  work  is  yours.  Bowling  Green  Academy 
dormitory  has  only  received  $230.37.  This  is  the  special  object 
of  the  former  Cumberland  Societies,  and  they  are  urged  to  make 
it  a  part  of  their  work  until  the  building  is  paid  for. 

Let  us  look  at  what  the  negroes  of  our  Presbyterian  church  are 
themselves  doing  for  gospel  privileges  and  christian  education. 
They  have  contributed  the  surprising  amount  $143,466.64,  an 
advance  over  last  year  of  $15,000.  This  means  self-denial  and 
sacrifice  such  as  our  church  at  large  knows  little  about.  They 
give  out  of  their  poverty,  we  of  our  plenty.  Their  contributions 
are  for  their  churches  and  schools,  also  for  the  Boards  of  the 
church.  They  have  their  Synodical,  Presbyterial  and  local 
societies.  They  are  asking  for  literature  that  they  may  know  of 
the  various  fields  of  our  church  and  have  a  share  in  its  work. 

The  average  contribution  per  member  among  them  is  now 
over  $6.00. 

All  the  Synodical  Societies  of  our  church  have  contributed  to 
our  Board  excepting  two.  Several  of  them  have  made  advance 
over  last  year,  Pennsylvania  in  the  lead  with  over  $1,000.  The 
letters  from   officers    all    over    the  country    have    been    most

cordial  and  show  much  interest  in  our  work,  and  we  are  glad 
to  keep  in  touch  with  them  and  answer  all  letters  and  supply 
them  with  literature,  but  we  realize  that  there  are  very  many  of 
our  Presbyterians  to  whom  our  Frecdmen  cause  does  not  appeal. 
This  is  due  in  some  measure  at  least  to  a  lack  of  knowledge  of 
what  the  church  is  doing  through  their  Board,  and  also  what 
has  to  be  left  undone  because  these  indifferent  ones  fail  to  meet 
their  share  of  obligation.  God  gives  us  the  work  to  rlo,  and  if 
we  are  faithful  we  will  do  our  share. 

The  Home  Mission  Monthly,  Over  8ea  and  Land,  and  the  liter- 
ature of  our  Board  will  give  information  on  this  field,  if  you  will 
but  read.  Read  and  you  will  know,  read  and  you  will  pra}^, 
read  and  you  will  give,  and  be  thankful  that  God  has  given  such 
fruitful  fields  into  your  care  and  keeping  for  Him. 

A  letter  or  a  postal  card  addressed  to  us  at  513  Bessemer 
Building,  Pittsburgh,  Penna.,  will  bring  you  the  material.  Here 
is  where  the  "wheels  go  round,"  which  carries  on  all  this  work 
between  societies  and  the  field,  your  work  for  the  spread  of  the 
gospel  in  this  dark  part  of  our  land. 

A  few  study  classes,  here  and  there  over  the  country,  are  taking 
up  this  field.  Our  maps  and  our  Stereopticon  Slides  are  traveling 
back  and  forth,  helpful  in  creating  or  increasing  interest.  They 
are  for  your  use  if  you  will  order  them. 

The  box  work  for  our  Freedmen  still  goes  on,  and  is  needed 
and  most  acceptable.  Not  so  many  as  usual  were  offered,  but 
all  were  very  helpful.  The  New  York  and  Indiana  Societies 
were  especially  generous  in  their  boxes  and  furnishings  for 
Albion  and  Kendall  dormitories.  Many  societies  taking  memorial 
rooms  to  furnish.  This  was  greatly  appreciated  by  us,  for  it 
helped  very  largely  in  fitting  up  these  two  buildings  so  com- 
fortably.    Box  work  is  a  strong  handmaid  in  our  work. 

We  have  added  an  Assistant  Secretary  to  our  office  force,  in 
the  person  of  Miss  Roberta  Barr  of  Tyrone,  Pa.  She  comes  to 
us  full  of  sympathy  and  interest  for  this  lowly  people.  She  has 
been  a  teacher  in  Mary  Holmes  Seminary  for  about  three  years. 
She  has  visited  many  of  our  own,  and  also  schools  of  other 
denominations,  and  will  give  a  new  impetus  to  our  cause.  She 
understands  the  work  on  the  field,  and  has  seen  the  power  of  the 
gospel  transforming  the  lives  of  students  into  earnest  faithful 
christians.  We  are  grateful  that  she  comes  to  us,  and  feel  that 
she  wull  be  a  blessing  and  a  help.    She  has  been  now  for  two

months  visiting  Presbyterial  and  local  societies  in  Illinois,  Indiana 
and  Ohio,  presenting  the  cause  and  transmitting  her  knowledge 
and  enthusiasm  to  them  and  helping  them  to  know  the  field  and 
its  needs.    This  is  a  part  of  the  work  of  our  office  force. 

I  have  given  a  hasty  review  of  our  years  work,  it  has  been  a 
very  busy  year,  but  we  thank  Gofl  and  take  courage,  and  in  His 
strength  alone  do  we  trust.  As  we  sit  together  in  heavenly 
places  here  considering  the  fields,  the  opportunities,  the  work, 
and  our  responsibilities,  shall  we  not  each  ask  ourselves,  am  I 
a  helper  or  a  hinderer  in  this  field?  and  as  we  return  to  our 
societies,  our  churches,  our  homes,  may  we  carry  with  us  a  more 
earnest  desire  to  spread  the  gospel,  to  share  our  blessings  in  Christ 
Jesus  and  thus  reflect  His  life  and  restore  His  image  in  the  lives 
of  those  who  look  unto  us  to  be  their  helpers. 

Respectfully  submitted, 

SUSAN  L.  STOKER, 

General  Secretary.

The  College  Board  herewith  presents  to  the  General  Assem- 
bly the  Twenty-sixth  Annual  Report  of  its  work.  The 
Board  finds  it  difficult  to  record  the  story  of  the  year's  work, 
or  to  speak  of  its  larger  plans  and  brighter  hopes,  because 
these  are  overshadowed  by  the  sad  death  of  our  beloved 
Secretary,  James  Stuart  Dickson,  in  the  prime  of  life  and 
the  full  vigor  of  his  powers. 

Dr.  Dickson  died  Thursday,  April  i,  at  his  home  in  East 
Orange,  of  heart  trouble,  after  a  painful  illness  of  several 
weeks.  He  had  served  the  Board  as  Secretary  for  four  years, 
having  been  appointed  in  December,  1904,  and  having  entered 
upon  the  duties  of  the  office  March  i,  1905. 


2  THE     COLLEGE     BOARD.  [^909 

He  came  to  the  Board  at  an  important  crisis.  The  Board 
had  come  to  its  majority,  and  its  twenty-one  years  in  Chicago 
had  made  it  evident  to  the  Church  that  there  was  an  import- 
ant and  distinct  field  for  its  work.  The  Assembly  had 
directed  the  removal  of  the  Board's  office  to  New  York,  and  had 
defined  for  it  a  broader  policy  and  a  larger  field  of  activity. 
But  it  remained  for  the  new  Executive  to  discover  the 
methods  by  which  the  policy  might  be  carried  out  and  the 
desires  of  the  Church  realized.  The  demand  made  upon  Dr. 
Dickson,  therefore,  was  quite  different  from  that  made  upon 
a  Secretary  called  to  continue  a  well-defined  work  and  to 
follow  generally  accepted  principles.  The  new  Secretary 
was  asked  not  only  to  do  his  work,  but  to  determine  in  large 
measure  what  that  work  should  be.  Four  years  had  been  a 
short  time  for  a  man  to  learn  the  field  and  formulate  his 
policy.  The  Assembly  doubtless  recognized  in  his  last  report 
a  marked  advance  over  previous  reports,  in  a  firm  grasp  of 
the  questions  in  hand,  a  clear  vision  of  the  principles  involved 
in  the  work,  and  the  assurance  born  of  a  successful  wTestling 
with  knotty  problems. 

The  printed  reports  of  the  Board  from  year  to  year  have 
told  the  story  of  his  work,  or  rather  a  small  part  of  the  story. 
To  estimate  properly  the  contribution  made  by  Dr.  Dickson 
to  Christian  education  in  these  brief  four  years,  it  would  be 
necessary  to  call  together  many  witnesses.  We  should  have 
to  consider  his  relations  to  the  more  than  3,500  churches 
which  make  offerings  in  support  of  the  Board;  to  the  fifty- 
two  colleges  in  full  co-operation  with  the  Board,  to  say  nothing 
of  the  academies;  to  their  presidents  and  faculties  and  trus- 
tees; to  the  Synods  and  the  Assembly;  to  educational  asso- 
ciations and  conferences;  to  the  givers  in  many  cities;  the 
local  constituencies  with  which  each  special  campaign  for 
endowment  brought  him  into  touch,  and  to  the  large  founda- 
tions supervising  and  contributing  to  education. 

The  demands  upon  him  for  securing  financial  aid  were 
without  limit,  and  he  gave  his  help  freely,  yet  he  never  allowed 
the  insistent  demands  for  temporal  equipment  to  make  him 
forgetful  that  the  ends  of  Christian  education  are  spiritual.

a  CO  lege  to  be  a  Presbi^^terian  college  did  not  excuse  it  from 
scholastic  attainments,  but  rather  justified  a  demand  for 
higher  attainments  than  in  others.  He  believed  in  partici- 
pation m  education  by  the  churches,  denomination  by  denomi- 
nation, knowing  that  the  great  faith  of  the  American  people

Were  we  to  seek  a  single  word  in  which  to  sum  up  his  work 
as  Secretary  we  should  choose,  I  think,  the  word  helpfulness 
or  his  own  word,  Co-operation.  As  he  said  in  his  first  report 
to  the  Assembly,  "The  fundamental  and  controlling  idea  i. 
that  suggested  by  the  Assembly's  repeated  expression  Co- 
operation. Co-operation  between  the  Board  and  the'  col- 
leges; co-operation  between  the  Board  and  the  givers-  co 
operation  between  the  givers  and  the  colleges  " 

Free  from  thought  of  self,  warm  in  sympathy,  energetic 
and  courageous  in  action,  he  worked  with  his  associates  he 
^^slted  the  churches,  moved  among  the  colleges,  encouraged 
their  officers,  doing  all  in  a  spirit  of  true  service,  giving  not 
himself  by  measure,  undismayed  by  overwhelming  odds 
secure  m  faith. 

By  his  death  the  Church  has  lost  a  great  leader.  Looking 
back  over  the  four  years  of  his  ministry,  the  Board  would 
record  its  deep  gratitude  for  this  great  helper  raised  up  of 
Crod  for  an  important  work. 

Owing  to  the  illness  and  death  of  Dr.  Dickson,  the  Board 
has  been  able  to  do  little  more  than  mark  time  the  last  quarter 
of  the  year,  and  would  ask,  therefore,  that  in  estimating  the 


4  THE     COLLEGE     BOARD.  [iQOQ 

fruits  of  the  year's  work  the  Assembly  compare  the  results 
with  the  three-fourths  of  any  preceding  year,  rather  than 
with  any  complete  year,  especially  as  it  was  the  months  of 
March  and  April  in  which  it  was  the  custom  of  the  Secretary 
to  give  his  immediate  attention  to  the  gathering  in  of  direct 
contributions  to  the  Board. 

Constitutional  Changes. 

After  four  years'  experience  under  the  Constitution  of  the 
reorganized  Board,  the  Board  last  year  asked  the  General 
Assembly  to  approve  a  slight  change  in  the  Constitution,  to 
make  the  distinctive  and  comprehensive  duty  of  the  Board 
more  clear.  The  General  Assembly  gave  its  approval  to  this 
change,  and  the  article  of  the  Constitution  defining  the 
province  and  duty  of  the  Board  now  reads  as  follows: 

"5.  The  College  Board  is  constituted  by  the  General 
Assembly  as  its  agency  for  maintaining  effective  relations 
with  Presbyterian  Colleges  and  Universities.     It  shall:

Deed  of  Gift. 

The  Board  is  in  position  to  assist  in  the  solicitation  of  funds 
for  our  colleges,  and  more  really  than  ever  before  can  be  a 
channel  of  communication  with  the  large  giving  agencies. 
It  is  consulted  constantly  by  givers  as  to  the  position  and 


1909]  THE     COLLEGE     BOARD.  c; 

demands  of  our  educational  institutions.  The  Board  'desires 
to  be  of  all  possible  assistance  to  each  college  and  its  president, 
but  it  also  desires  that  every  dollar  secured  from  Christian 
givers,  and  given  with  a  Christian  purpose,  shall  make  it  more 
and  more  impossible  for  a  college  ever  to  turn  aside  from 
required  Bible  instruction  and  from  the  requirement  of 
uniformly  Christian  teachers. 

The  Board,  therefore,  has  suggested  arrangements  with 
Christian  givers  so  that  all  gifts  of  over  $1,000  shall  be  made 
upon  a  Deed  of  Gift  between  the  donors  and  the  college,  in 
which  the  gift  is  made  to  the  college  upon  the  express 
conditions: 

"i.  That  the  party  of  the  second  part  [the  college]  causes 
the  Bible  to  be  systematically  taught  to  every  regu- 
larly enrolled  student  attending  such  institution,  as  a 
part  of  the  regular  curriculum  required  for  graduation  ; 
one  hundred  and  forty-four  (144)  hours  being  the 
minimum  time  for  required  Bible  study  in  the  college 
course,  or  thirty-six  (36)  hours  at  least  in  each  year 
thereof,  the  faculty  of  the  party  of  the  second  part  to 
be  at  liberty,  however,  to  arrange  the  said  thirty-six 
(36)  hours  according  to  their  best  judgment. 

"2.  That  the  party  of  the  second  part  [the  college]  shall  at 
all  times  after  the  date  of  the  execution  of  this  deed 
of  gift,  engage  and  retain  upon  its  teaching  staff  only 
professors  for  whose  positive  Christian  influence  the 
president  of  the  party  of  the  second  part  can  vouch; 
and  that  upon  failure  thereof,"  the  gift  "shall  forth- 
with revert  and ....  be  paid  by  the  party  of  the  second 
part  to  The  College  Board  of  the  Presbyterian  Church 
in  the  United  States  of  America ....  and  shall  become 
and  be  a  part  of  the  General  Fund  of  the  said  The 
College  Board. " 

The  Board  believes  that  the  purposes  of  such  a  Deed  of 
Gift  are  exactly  those  that  are  now  controlling  our  colleges. 
It  feels,  however,  that  such  a  method  of  securing  funds  would 
commit  our  Presbyterian  colleges  for  all  future  time  to  the 


"6  THE     COLLEGE     BOARD.  [iQOQ 

policy  under  which  they  are  now  working.     The  Board  can 

think  of  no  other  plan  which  will  so  perfectly  secure  the  funds 

given  for  Christian  education  and  at  the  same  time  leave  the 

college  so  perfectly  free  in  its  educational  policy  and  in  its 

relation  to  plans  for  material  upbuilding. 

Many  of  our  colleges  have  already  cordially  accepted  this 

proposition  and  will  co-operate  with  the  Board  in  carr3ang  it 

out. 

The  Colleges. 

The  colleges  report  excellent  spiritual  work  this  year. 
Instruction  in  the  Bible  is  carried  on  with  increasing  efficiency, 
and  in  many  colleges  with  large  volunteer  Bible  classes  in 
addition  to  those  required  by  the  curriculum.  Most  of  the 
colleges  report  strong  meetings  during  the  Week  of  Prayer, 
and  several  had  notable  religious  movements,  sweeping  stu- 
dents into  the  Kingdom,  during  the  Winter,  and  frequently 
it  is  remarked  that  the  spiritual  revival  has  greatly  raised 
the  tone  of  student  character  as  exhibited  in  the  discipline 
matters  and  in  students.  Alma,  Bellevue,  Biddle,  Blackburn, 
Coe,  Cumberland,  Grove  City,  Hanover,  Illinois,  Lafayette, 
Lenox,  Macalester,  James  Millikin,  Missouri  Valley,  Park,

attendance,  has  had  a  deep  and  thorough  work  of  grace  among 
the  students,  and  has  added  $3,000  to  its  endowment. 

Bellevue  College  has  a  new  president,  S.  W.  Stookey,  LL.D., 
and,  in  connection  with  the  University  of  Omaha,  is  laying 
plans  to  secure  endowment.

Academies. 

When  The  College  Board  was  reorganized  by  the  General 
Assembly  of  1904,  a  strong  special  Committee  was  appointed 
to  recommend  action  to  the  Board  regarding  academies. 
After  full  consideration  by  the  special   Committee  and  the 


igog]  THE     COLLEGE     BOARD.  9 

Executive  Committee,  the  Board  adopted  the  following  action 
in  May,  1905 : 

"i.  The  Board  does  not  see  its  way  clear  to  approve  the 
establishing  of  an}^  new  academy  in  the  northern  section  of 
the  country,  where  the  high  school  development  is  already 
marked. 

"2.  The  Board  will  consider  applications  regarding  acade- 
mies in  the  southern  section  as  on  a  different  basis,  emphasiz- 
ing, however,  its  feeling  that  such  institutions  will  in  most 
cases  be  temporary  in  their  character. 

"3.  The  Board  does  not  see  its  way  clear  to  encourage  a 
general  appeal  for  endowment  for  academies,  but  will  co- 
operate in  any  local  movement  so  far  as  may  be  in  its  power. 

"4.  Regarding  existing  academies,  the  Board  will  enter 
into  each  case  separately  to  determine  which  of  the  three 
following  courses  may  be  wise : 

"(a)  To  proceed  in  a  movement  for  permanence  in  view  of 
the  peculiar  need  of  the  locality  and  the  history  of  the  insti- 
tution, with  reference  to  the  previous  understanding  of  the 
community. 

"(6)  To  co-operate  in  securing  funds  for  current  expenses 
for  a  fixed  term  of  years,  until  local  plans  can  be  made  for 
endowment  or  other  methods  of  permanence. 

"  (c)  To  plan  for  the  discontinuance  of  the  institution  upon 
honorable  terms. 

"5.  This  statement  has  reference  solely  to  academies  inde- 
pendent of  colleges,  the  Board  continuing  its  hearty  approval 
and  its  offers  of  assistance  for  academic  departments  of 
colleges.  " 

The  Board  has  constantly  studied  the  question  of  academies 
since  that  time,  latterly  by  a  special  Committee  appointed 
for  the  purpose.  This  Committee  made  the  widest  possible 
study  of  the  subject,  investigating  Presbyterian  academies 
for  a  long  period,  and  with  the  greatest  care  and  detail  of 
study,  and  recommended  to  the  Board  at  its  meeting  held 
last  November  the  following  action,  which  was  carefully 
studied  by  the  Executive  Committee  and  then  by  the  Board, 
and  was  unanimously  adopted: 


lO  THE     COLLEGE     BOARD.  [1QO9 

"The  Committee  appointed  to  consider  the  question  of 
Presbyterian  academies  and  their  relation  to  The  College 
Board  beg  leave  to  report  as  follows: 

"It  is  the  view  of  the  Committee  that  the  Board  is  justified 
in  co-operating  with  a  Presbyterian  academy  only  so  long  as 
it  can  be  shown  that  the  academy  is  doing  a  clearly  defined 
work  in  the  interest  of  higher  Christian  education  and  the 
production  of  leadership  for  the  Presbyterian  Church.  When 
it  can  be  shown  that  an  academy  is  sending  an  inconsiderable 
number  of  students  to  Christian  colleges,  or  that  the  cost  to 
the  Church  for  the  individual  student  sent  to  a  Christian 
college  has  become  unduly  large,  it  becomes  the  duty  of  the 
Board  to  question  the  wisdom  of  further  appropriations  to 
the  academy,  and  after  sufficient  notice  to  apply  the  offerings 
of  the  Church  in  some  more  productive  direction. 

"A  statement  is  in  order  as  to  the  causes  that  have  contrib- 
uted to  the  comparative  failure  of  many  of  our  Presbyterian 
academies.  The  rise  and  improvement  of  the  free  high  school 
in  the  Middle  West  has  made  their  work  more  and  more 
■difficult,  and  has  led  to  the  closing  of  a  number  of  once  pros- 
perous academies.  It  is  a  fact  that  the  academy  has  itself 
stimulated  high  school  growth  in  its  neighborhood;  but  in 
turn  that  growth  of  the  high  school  and  its  development  into 
.a  fairly  sufficient  preparatory  school  is  now  making  the  com- 
petitive work  of  the  academy  almost  impossible.  The 
academy  without  fine  equipment  and  large  endowment  cannot 
compete  with  the  free  high  school.  Twenty-five  years  of 
Board  experience  proves  that  academies  can  secure  neither 
equipment  nor  endowment.  All  have  tried;  none  have  suc- 
ceeded. In  the  twenty-five  years  of  the  Board's  history 
fourteen  co-operating  academies  have  graduated  449  students 
who  went  to  colleges,  of  whom  they  have  sent  to  State  uni- 
versities, 92;  to  other  colleges  not  Presbyterian,  186;  and  to 
Presbyterian  colleges,  171,  at  a  total  cost  to  the  Board  of 
$196,488.  The  average  cost  to  the  Board  for  each  student 
sent  to  a  Presbyterian  college  has  been  $1,128.  The  Presby- 
terian colleges  that  are  now  in  association  with  the  Presby- 
terian Church  have  received  no  sufficient  support  from  Pres- 


1909]  THE     COLLEGE     BOARD.  II 

byterian  academies.  Most  of  the  students  of  our  colleges  have 
apparently  found  their  preparation  in  the  academic  depart- 
ment of  the  same  institutions.  In  a  list  of  students  sent  to 
our  various  Presbyterian  colleges,  the  numbers  of  those  sent 
by  separate  academies  are  almost  too  small  to  consider. 

"These  facts  make  it  plain  that  The  College  Board,  whose 
reorganization  contemplated  greater  and  greater  concentra- 
tion upon  the  support  of  Presbyterian  college  work,  can  use 
the  offerings  of  the  churches  with  far  greater  effect  by  making 
its  entire  appropriations  to  colleges,  rather  than  in  making  any 
to  independent  academies.  Several  of  the  academies  have 
closed  their  doors  this  year.  Others  are  reporting  a  much 
decreased  enrollment.  All  of  the  academies  co-operating 
with  this  Board,  and  that  have  reported  this  year,  show 
an  enrollment  of  652  this  Fall,  as  against  870  a  year  ago. 

"Under  all  these  circumstances,  the  Committee  would 
recommend  the  following  courses  of  procedure  to  the  Board  : 
First:  That  the  Board  recognize  that  changed  educational 
conditions  render  impossible  the  effective  maintenance,  with 
the  resources  at  the  command  of  the  Board,  of  Presbyterian 
academies  not  immediately  connected  with  colleges.  Second: 
That  the  Board  adopt  the  policy  of  withdrawing  from  aca- 
demic work  in  such  a  way  as  promises  to  cause  the  least 
possible  injury  to  the  academies." 

The  Finances. 

The  table  on  page  12  gives  a  comparative  statement  of  the 
receipts  of  the  Board  and  institutions  for  five  years,  the  period 
during  which  Dr.  James  Stuart  Dickson  was  Secretary  of 
the  Board.  The  effect  of  his  work  upon  the  receipts  of  the 
Board  and  institutions  appears  plainly  in  the  record  of  the 
first  four  years,  and  the  loss  occasioned  by  his  absence  from 
the  office  during  a  large  part  of  the  last  year  is  manifest  in 
the  figures  of  that  column. 

It  is  greatly  to  be  desired  that  the  Church  and  givers 
should  clearly  understand  two  peculiar  methods  of  The  College 
Board.

(a)  After  years  of  experiment,  the  Board  adopted,  with  the 
approval  of  the  General  Assembly,  about  twenty  years  ago, 
the  policy  of  permitting  its  aided  colleges  to  solicit  and  re- 
ceive the  College  Board  offerings  of  churches  in  their  Synods. 
The  treasurers  of  colleges  were  appointed  deputy  treasurers 
•of  The  College  Board;  and  their  reports  of  gifts  received  by 
their  institutions,  on  blanks  prepared  by  The  College  Board, 
were  entered  upon  the  books  and  reported  to  the  General 
Assembly  as  receipts  of  The  College  Board.  The  Board  might 
have  continued  to  require  that  all  these  College  Board  offer- 
ings should  pass  through  its  treasury,  as  it  did  in  its  earlier 
years;  but  it  preferred,  because  of  manifest  great  advantages 
to  the  colleges,  to  adopt  this  peculiar  method.  The  results 
have  fully  approved  the  wisdom  of  the  course.  But  not  all 
appreciate  the  fact  that  the  expense  of  these  offerings  to  The 
College  Board — for  printed  matter,  personal  letters,  visits 
.and  solicitation  and  in  bookkeeping — are  exactly  the  same 
as  if  the  offerings  came  through  the  treasury  of  the  Board. 
The  Board  has  therefore  suffered  misjudgment  in  the  matter, 
and  earnestly  desires  that  the  Church  should  understand  it 
thoroughly  and  judge  it  aright. 

(b)  The  General  Assembly  of  1904,  which  reorganized  and 
reconstituted  the  Board  and  removed  it  to  New  York,  di- 
rected that  it  should  give  chief  attention  to  assisting  colleges 
in  securing  endowment,  and  to  this  end  should  increase  its 
office  force.  The  Board  has  obeyed  the  Assembly  and  much 
more  than  one-half  of  the  expenses  of  the  Board,  including 
salaries,  rental,  office  expenses,  travel  and  printing  and  dis- 
tribution, have  been  incurred  in  assisting  colleges  to  secure 
endowment;  and  since  but  a  trifle  of  the  endowment  which 
it  has  assisted  to  secure  passes  through  its  treasury,  the 
expenses  of  the  Board  should  be  reckoned  in  connection  with 
this  part  of  its  work  and  the  results. 

It  is  quite  necessary,  for  any  fair  judgment  of  the  Board, 
that  these  two  things  should  be  thoroughly  understood  by  the 
Church.

presidents,  to  be  named  by  the  College  Conference,  be  invited 
to  sit  with  the  Board  at  its  November  meeting,  the  represen- 
tative not  to  be  eligible  for  reappointment  in  successive 
years;  and  the  expenses  incurred  by  the  representatives  in 
attending  the  meeting  to  be  paid  by  the  Board.  " 

All  of  which  is  respectfully  submitted.

THE   POLICY   OF   THE   BOARD. 


The  Policy  of  the  Board,  in  accordance  with  the  Constitu- 
tion framed  for  it  by  the  Church  through  the  General  Assem- 
bly of  1904,  is  summed  up  in  one  word — Co-operation.  The 
Board  will  co-operate  (i)  with  givers,  (2)  with  Presbyterian 
Colleges,  and  (3)  with  both  givers  and  colleges  to  secure 
co-operation  between  them. 

1.     Co=operation  with  Givers. 

The  Board  will  endeavor  to  awaken,  inform  and  stimulate 
the  Church  in  behalf  of  Presbyterian  Colleges.  (Constitu- 
tion, 5  (6).) 

It  will  offer  the  fullest  and  most  reliable  information,  both 
about  the  college  cause  and  the  individual  college,  and  re- 
garding the  relation  of  the  Church  to  education  and  its  col- 
leges.    (Constitution,  5  [b'),  (c).) 

It  will  in  no  way  try  to  dominate  givers  and  their  gifts, 
but  w^ll  seek  only  to  ascertain  and  carry  out  the  desires  of 
givers. 

It  will  seek  to  safeguard  funds  committed  to  it  or  secured 
with  its  co-operation,  as  givers  may  desire,  or,  when  no 
desire  is  expressed,  as  the  interests  of  the  colleges  and  the 
Church  require.     (Constitution,  8  (a),  (b).) 

It  will,  when  desired  to  do  so,  act  as  Trustee  of  funds  com- 
mitted to  it,  investing  them  with  paramount  consideration  of 
safety;  holding  them  permanently  if  the  giver  so  directs, 
or,  if  the  giver  prefer,  temporarily,  until  conditions  prescribed 
by  the  giver  are  fully  met  (Constitution,  8  (c)),  disbursing 
the  income  derived  from  them  in  accordance  with  the  wish 
of  the  giver. 

It  will  "  endeavor  to  have  all  gifts  for  Christian  Education 
within  our  Church  either  passed  through  its  Treasury  or  re- 
ported to  it,  that  its  reports  may  show  from  year  to  year 
what  sums  and  from  what  sources  are  given  to  this  cause," 
(Constitution,  8(^).)

2.  Co-operation  with  Colleges.  (Constitution,  5  (c),  {d), 
(r),  and  6.) 

A  Presbyterian  College  is  one  which  either  (i)  Is  organ- 
ically connected  with  the  Presbyterian  Church  in  the  United 
States  of  America,  owned  or  controlled  by  an  ecclesiastical 
corporation  of  the  Church  ;  or  (2)  By  perpetual  charter  pro- 
vision has  two-thirds  of  its  Board  of  Control  members  of 
this  Church;  or  (3)  Is  affiliated  with  this  Church  by  the  pre- 
dominance of  adherents  of  this  Church  in  its  foundations, 
Board  of  Control,  Faculty  and  student  body.  The  term 
"  College  "  is  commonly  used  herein  as  including  universities. 

The  Board  will  seek  neither  to  dominate  colleges  nor  to 
carry  them.      It  will  co-operate  with  them. 

Colleges  or  academies  not  yet  recognized  in  the  Board's 
report,  desiring  approval  and  co-operation,  are  requested  to 
send  to  the  Board's  office  for  blanks  on  which  report  of  their 
ecclesiastical,  educational  and  financial  status  may  be  sub- 
mitted to  the  Board. 

The  Annual  College  Conference  (Constitution,  6)  will  be 
asked  to  act  in  an  advisory  capacity  toward  the  Board  in  all 
matters  in  which  an  ecclesiastical  corporation,  administering 
trust  funds,  may  properly  accept  information,  opinions  and 
advice  from  a  body  of  experts  in  educational  matters  and 
college  detail.  The  Board  will  endeavor  to  be,  so  far  as 
possible,  the  voice  of  the  colleges  to  the  Church  and  the 
hand  of  the  Church  to  the  colleges. 

The  Board  will  seek  primarily  to  stimulate  colleges  to  self- 
help,  and  their  home  fields  to  the  utmost  limit  of  support  and 
endowment ;  since  a  college,  to  have  a  hopeful  future,  must 
ordinarily  be  strongly  based  in  the  affection,  prayer  and 
giving  of  its  vicinage.  This  is  true  in  spirit,  though  not 
necessarily  in  the  proportion  of  gifts  from  the  home  field,  of 
colleges  distinctively  missionary  in  character  and  work. 

To  co-operate  in  securing  endowment  for  the  colleges  is 
the  chief  function  of  the  Board  (Minutes  of  General  Assem- 
bly, 1904,  page  108,  2.  and  6.)  and  to  that  it  will  give  chief 
attention.  Co-operation  with  colleges  which  have  little  or 
no  endowment,  in  securing  support  until  their  endowments 


1909]  THE  POLICY  OF  THE  BOARD.  I- 

are  reasonably  adequate,  is  a  necessary  but  subordinate 
function. 

The  Board  will  consider  applications  for  annual  aid  toward 
current  expenses  of  colleges. 

Application  is  to  be  made  by  the  Trustees,  in  formal  meet- 
ing, filling  out  a  blank  which  the  Secretary  will  furnish  on 
request  and  will  send  to  aided  institutions  April  i.  Applica- 
tions made  for  the  first  time  should  be  accompanied  by  the 
fullest  information  regarding  the  history  and  prospects  of  the 
institution. 

The  Annual  Board  Meeting  for  voting  on  applications  is 
held  on  the  first  Tuesday  in  June.  Applications  must  be  in 
the  Secretary's  hands  by  May  i.  If  the  Trustees  cannot  meet 
in  time  for  this,  the  Executive  Committee  should  send  an 
application  as  nearly  as  possible  like  that  which  the  Trustees 
will  probably  adopt  ;  and  the  formal  application,  adopted  by 
the  Trustees,  should  reach  the  Secretary  as  soon  as  possible. 
Institutions  withholding  applications  beyond  the  date  of  the 
meeting,  and  giving  no  satisfactory  explanation  of  the  delay, 
will  be  regarded  as  expecting  no  aid  from  the  Board  for  the 
ensuing  year. 

Applications  of  colleges  must  have  the  formal  approval  of 
their  synods  endorsed  upon  the  applications  ;  applications  of 
academies,  the  approval  of  their  presbyteries.  Yet  as  there 
is  often  no  meeting  of  the  ecclesiastical  body  held  between 
the  making  of  the  application  by  the  Trustees  and  the  June 
Board  meeting,  unendorsed  applications  will  be  voted  on  at 
the  June  meeting  ;  exact  duplicate  applications,  approved 
and  endorsed,  to  be  sent  to  the  Board  before  any  payment 
of  aid  will  be  made. 

With  the  advice  of  the  Annual  College  Conference  it  will 
adopt  a  schedule  of  amounts  which  the  colleges  should  receive 
for  this  purpose  ;  and  it  will  make  payments  of  these  amounts, 
or  of  such  pro  rata  parts  of  them  as  it  shall  be  enabled  to 
make  by  ofEerings  from  churches  and  church  organizations 
and  by  funds  otherwise  secured  by  the  Board  for  the  purpose  : 
always  on  condition  that,  before  payment  is  made,  a  college 
shall  satisfy  the  Board 

( I )     That  it  requires  all  regular  students  to  take  systematic 


l8  THE    COLLEGE    BOARD.  [iQOQ 

Bible  study  as  a  part  of  the  curriculum  required  for  gradua- 
tion ;  in  accordance  with  the  agreement  between  The  College 
Board  and  the  Annual  College  Conference  held  on  May  i6, 
1906,  144  hours  to  be  the  minimum  for  required  Bible  study 
in  the  college  course,  ^6  hours  to  be  given  each  year; 

(2)  That  it  has  in  its  Faculty  only  such  teachers  as  can 
be  regarded  as  exerting  a  definitely  Christian  influence  over 
the  students; 

(3)  That  its  financial  administration  is  conservative  and 
safe; 

(4)  That  it  has  used  every  reasonable  effort  to  secure 
funds  from  its  vicinage,  within  agreed  presbyterial  or  synodi- 
cal  lines  ; 

(5)  That  it  carries  adequate  insurance  on  its  buildings 
and  their  valuable  contents  ;  and 

(6)  That  no  mortgage  is  placed  upon  the  property  with- 
out previous  consent  in  writing  by  the  Board. 

The  Board  will  co-operate  most  heartily  with  Colleges 

1.  That  are  evidently  needed,  conditions  of  population 
and  location  of  other  educational  institutions  being  consid- 
ered.     (Constitution,  9.) 

2.  That  have  local  interest,  opportunity  for  growth  and 
promise  of  permanence; 

3.  That  do  educational  work  of  high  grade; 

4.  That  seek  to  form  Christian  character,  influencing 
students  toward  Bible  study,  saving  faith,  right  living  and 
consecration  to  service;  and 

5.  That  are  prudently  and  conservatively  financed,  in  es- 
timating probable  income,  in  preparing  budgets  of  expenses, 
and  in  the  investment  of  permanent  funds.  Colleges  may 
never  properly,  under  any  conditions,  use  endowment  or 
special  funds,  even  temporarily,  for  current  expenses  or 
deficit.  Such  a  course  is  regarded  as  a  misuse  of  trust 
funds.  The  Board  will  not  recommend  to  givers  any  col- 
lege thus  misappropriating  trust  funds.  Colleges  will  be 
expected  to  carry  adequate  insurance  on  their  buildings  and 
other  destructible  property. 

3.  Co=operation  with  Colleges  and  Givers  to  Secure 
Co-operation  Between  Them. 


'909]  THE  POLICY  OF  THE  BOARD. 


19 


The  Board  will  endeavor,  in  co-operation  with  colleges,  to 
make  known  to  givers  the  nature  and  needs  of  Presbyterian 
educational  institutions. 

It  will  endeavor,  in  co-operation  with  colleges,  to  secure 

gifts  : 

(r)  The  Board  zvill  expect  every  church  to  make  an  offer- 
tngfor  the  cause.     (Constitution,  5  (/)  and  7  (<^).) 

Colleges  approved  by  the  Annual  College  Conference  and 
the  Board,  and  recommended  for  aid  on  current  expenses, 
may  solicit  and  receive  the  College  Board  offerings  of  their 
home  regions  as  these  may  be  agreed  upon. 

As  the  Board  must  depend  mainly  on  church  offerings  for 
funds  to  pay  appropriations  voted  for  unendowed  colleges 
and  academies,  it  is  expected  that  stronger  colleges— while 
seeking  individual  gifts  and,  on  occasion,  additional  special 
offerings  from  the  churches— will  not  attempt  to  secure  the 
regular  College  Board  offerings  for  themselves. 

(2)  The  Board  zvill  expect  much  from  individual  givers. 
Colleges  will  be  asked  to  restrict  their  solicitation  of  funds 

in  outside  fields  only  as  the  Annual  College  Conference  may 
advise  and  the  Board  approve. 

The  Board  requests  that  colleges,  planning  to  solicit 
funds  outside  of  their  home  fields,  will  first  consult  with  the 
Board,  that  the  interests  of  all  co-operating  parties  may  be 
conserved;  otherwise  it  will  be  understood  that  such 
colleges  will  not  ask  or  expect  any  special  co-operation  from 
the  Board. 

(3)  The  Board  zuill  seek  for  its  own  Treasury  : 

{a)  Very  large  gifts  and  legacies  for  use  in  accordance 
with  the  expressed  wishes  of  donors,  or,  if  such  wishes  are 
not  expressed,  for  use  in  the  discretion  of  the  Board. 

{b)  Smaller  gifts  and  legacies  for  emergency  aid  to 
colleges. 

(4)  The  Board  zvill  seek  for  colleges  approved  by  the 
Annual  College  Conference  and  the  Board: 

{a)     Large  gifts  and  legacies  for  permanent  endowment, 
{b)     Smaller  gifts  and  legacies  for  colleges  recommended 
for  aid  on  current  expenses.     These  should  ordinarily  take 
the  form  of  Scholarships,  paying  the  tuition  of  a  student 


20 


THE    COLLEGE    BOARD.  [^9^9 


from  $50  to  $100  a  year  ;  Professor's  Chairs,  from  $200, 
when  home  and  its  necessities  are  provided  by  the  college, 
to  $2,000  a  year;  and  Sustentation,  carrying  the  actual 
annual  deficit  of  a  college,  from  $2,500  a  year  upwards. 
Any  of  these  may  be  given  for  a  single  year;  but  it  is  in 
every  wa^  better  that  they  should  be  pledged,  by  an  indi- 
vidual, by  a  church,  by  the  churches  of  a  city,  by  a  presby- 
tery or  by  a  synod,  for  from  two  to  five  or  ten  years  while 
the  college  is  securii^g  endowment.  Thus  the  interest  of  the 
giver  may  be  localized  in  an  individual  college  or  several 
colleges  and,  if  the  college  continue  to  commend  itself  to 
him,  lead  to  increasing  and  permanent  co-operation  between 
them. 

The  Board  will  always  seek  first,  in  co-operation  with  a 
college,  to  develop  the  interest  and  gfifts  of  its  home  field, 
both  for  endowment,  for  temporary  aid  in  Scholarship,  Chairs 
and  Sustentation,  and  in  emergencies,  and  afterward  in 
other  fields,  as  may  seem  wise  and  practiciable. 

The  Board  will  report,  in  the  Annual  Report,  all  gifts 
passing  through  its  Treasury,  in  a  list  of  contributing 
churches  and  an  alphabetical  list  of  givers,  indicating  the 
destination  of  any  gift  designated  by  the  giver  for  an 
individual  institution.  Such  designated  gifts  will  all  be 
reported,  in  classified  totals,  in  an  alphabetical  list  of  colleges, 
with  a  statement  that  they  are  itemized  elsewhere  in  the 
Annual  Report. 

The  Treasurer  of  the  Board  will  send,  on  the  first  of  March 
of  each  year,  to  all  Presbyterian  universities,  colleges, 
academies  and  schools  of  which  the  Board  may  have  knowl- 
edge, blanks  for  reports  of  gifts  received  by  the  inslfitution 
during  the  year  ending  April  first ;  and  all  gifts  reported  by 
such  institutions  to  the  Board  will  be  reported  by  the  ^Board. 

(a)  Gifts  reported  by  approved  colleges  and  academies, 
on  the  special  blanks  prepared  for  their  use  by  the  Board, 
will  be  treated  as  receipts  of  the  Board.  Treasurers  of  such 
institutions  are  Deputy  Treasurers  of  the  Board,  authorized 
to  handle  and  account  for  College  Board  gifts  secured  in 
co-operation  with  the  Board  and  sent  by  the  giver  clirectly 
to  the  college.     Church  offerings  so  reported  will  appear  on 


IQOq]  the    policy    of    the    board,  21 

the  books  of  the  Board,  and  in  its  Annual  Report,  in  the 
list  of  contributing  churches,  in  the  alphabetical  list  of 
individual  givers,  and  in  the  alphabetical  list  of  colleges,  in 
the  latter  in  classified  totals,  with  a  statement  that  they  are 
itemized  elsewhere  in  the  Annual  Report. 

(d)  Gifts,  other  than  those  specilied  in  (a)  reported  by- 
institutions,  will  be  reported  in  the  Annual  Report,  in  the 
alphabetical  list  of  institutions,  in  classified  totals  ;  except 
that  an  individual  gift  of  $i,ooo,  or  upward,  will  be  itemized 
with  the  name  of  the  donor,  if  it  is  so  desired. 

Academies. 

1.  The  Board  does  not  see  its  way  clear  to  approve  the 
establishing  of  any  new  academy  in  the  northern  section  of 
the  country,  where  the  High  School  development  is  already 
marked. 

2.  The  Board  will  consider  applications  regarding  acade- 
mies in  the  southern  section  as  on  a  different  basis,  emphasiz- 
ing, however,  its  feeling  that  such  institutions  will  in  most 
cases  be  temporary  in  their  character. 

3.  The  Board  does  not  see  its  way  clear  to  encourage  a 
general  appeal  for  endowment  for  academies,  but  will  co- 
operate in  any  local  movement  so  far  as  may  be  in  its  power. 

4.  Regarding  existing  academies,  the  Board  will  enter 
into  each  case  separately  to  determine  which  of  the  three 
following  courses  may  be  wise  : 

(a)  To  proceed  in  a  movement  for  permanence  in  view  of 
the  peculiar  need  of  the  locality  and  the  history  of  the  insti- 
tution, with  reference  to  the  previous  understanding  of  the 
community. 

{d)  To  co-operate  in  securing  funds  for  current  expenses 
for  a  fixed  term  of  years,  until  local  plans  can  be  made  for 
endowment  or  other  methods  of  permanence. 

(c)  To  plan  for  the  discontinuance  of  the  institution  upon 
honorable  terms. 

5.  This  statement  has  reference  solely  to  academies  inde- 
pendent of  colleges,  the  Board  continuing  its  hearty  approval 
and  its  offers  of  assistance  for  academic  departments  of 
colleges.

Sir  : — 

We  have  examined  the  accounts  of  the  Treasurer  of  your 
Board  for  the  year  ending  April  15th,  1909,  and  have  verified 
the  Balance  Sheet  published  herewith,  which  in  our  opinion 
presents  the  correct  financial  condition  of  the  Board. 

We  have  found  on  file  proper  vouchers  for  the  expendi- 
tures, and  the  contributions  shown  on  Schedules  C  and  M, 
detailed  on  Schedules  J,  K  and  L,  have  been  properly 
accounted  for. 

The  cash  and  securities  on  hand  have  been  verified  either 
by  actual  count  or  evidences  of  deposit. 

Respectfully  submitted, 

Patterson,  Teele  &  Dennis, 
Certified  Public  Accountants.

THE  COLLEGE  BOARD.  , 
Schedule  B. 

GIFTS  TO  CHRISTIAN  EDUCATION  WITHIN  OUR  CHURCH. 

The  College  Board  is  constituted  by  the  General  Assembly  as  its 
agency  for  maintaining  etfective  relations  with  Presbyterian  colleges  and 
universities.  It  is  to  co-operate  with  colleges  in  securing  endowment, 
and  to  give  some  colleges  annual  help  for  current  expenses.  It  is  to 
endeavor  to  have  all  gifts  for  Christian  Education  within  our  Church 
either  passed  through  its  Treasury  or  reported  to  it,  that  its  reports  may 
show  from  year  to  year  what  sums  and  from  what  sources  are  given  to 
this  cause.  The  following  amount  was  passed  through  the  Treasury  of 
the  Board  or  reported  to  it  during  the  year  1908-9: 
Gifts  for  Christian  Education $1,143,181.80 

1.  The  following  is  the  sum  total  of  gifts  in  which  the  Board's  more 
direct  agency  is  concerned,  in  accordance  with  the  action  of  the  General 
Assembly  of  1904  reorganizing  this  Board  :  "2.  Said  Board  to  be 
enlarged  in  sphere  of  operation  and  executive  force  so  as  the  more 
widely  to  represent  the  Church,  and  so  as  the  more  directly  and  effi- 
ciently to  promote  college  interests  and  objects,  especially  in  the  matter 
of  endowment  ....  6.  The  Board  shall  give  immediate  and  special 
attention  to  the  endowment  of  our  Presbyterian  colleges  which  come 
into  relations  with  the  Board."  Of  the  total  amount,  $194,138.63  passed 
through  the  Treasury  of  this  Board ;  while  church  oflferings,  taken  for 
the  College  Board  and  sent  directly  to  institutions  by  arrangement  with 
the  Board,  where  the  representative  of  the  college  was  an  agent  of  the 
Board,  amounted  to  $86,358.76;  and  individual  gifts  sent  directly  to 
institutions,  but  in  securing  each  one  of  which  the  College  Board  was 
instrumental,  amounted  to  $355,143.95. 

The  administrative  expenses  of  the  Board  (Schedule  M)  were 
$17,965  64,  and  expenditures  for  advertising,  maintenance  of  investment, 
etc.  (Schedule  M),  were  $13,445.12.  As  more  than  one-half  of  these 
expenditures,  including  rent,  salaries,  etc.,  must  be  charged  to  the 
Board's  work  in  co-operating  with  colleges  to  secure  endowment,  the 
expenditures  of  the  Board  should  be  charged  against  the  following  total : 
Gifts  in  Securing  which  the  Board  was  a  Direct  Agent     .        .$635,641.34 

2.  The  gifts  included  in  the  following  sum  were  secured  by  presidents 
and  financial  agents  of  institutions.  The  Board  co-operates  in  this  work 
by  organizing  the  work  in  synods  and  presbyteries,  by  sending  out  litera- 
ture to  all  our  churches  and  people  of  means  several  times  each  year,  by 
opening  avenues  of  approach  to  individual  givers,  and  by  general  work 
of  many  sorts  intended  to  inform  and  stimulate  the  Church  at  large  to 
deeper  and  more  intelligent  interest  in  our  institutions.

REPORT  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY'S  STANDING 
COMMITTEE 

At  Denver,  Colo.,  May,  1909. 


The  joUow'uiy  Report  by  the  Rev.  H.  G.  Mendenhall,  D.D.,  of  New  York, 
Chairman  of  the  Assembly's  Standing  Committee  on  this  Board,  was  unani- 
mously adopted: 

The  Standing  Coniniittee  on  The  College  Board  begs  leave  to  submit 
the  following  report : 

The  Twentj'-sixth  Annual  Report  of  the  Board  lias  been  received  and 
carefully  examined.  Officers  of  the  Board  have  met  with  us,  giving  ex- 
tended explanations  upon  important  subjects  connected  with  their  work. 
From  these  sources  of  information  we  are  priAoleged  to  place  before  you 
for  your  consideration  these  topics  and  recommendations : 

^  I.   The  Workmen. 

We  meet  with  the  shadow  of  a  great  loss  darkening  the  joy  that  would 
otherwise  gladden  our  hearts.  Rev.  James  Stuart  Dickson,  D.D.,  the 
beloved  Secretary  of  this  Board,  died  at  his  home  in  New  Jersey  after  a 
brief  illness,  April  1.  The  eloquent  tongue  that  stirred  many  Assemblies 
is  stilled;  the  con.secrated  life  that  in  its  four  brief  years  of  service  made 
possible  the  splendid  results  achieved  has  fallen  in  the  midst  of  the  battle. 
In  the  vigor  of  a  splendid  manhood ;  with  a  zeal  that  promised  a  successful 
future  for  a  cause  that  in  so  brief  a  period  won  so  many  victories;  with 
an  enthusiasm  for  Christian  education  that  was  arousing  the  whole  Church, 
this  beloved  brother  and  devoted  officer  has  gone  to  the  Homeland  to 
receive  his  crown. 

Dr.  Dickson  came  to  his  work  from  a  long  and  bles.sed  pastorate  in  the 
City  of  Philadelphia.  He  was  the  first  Secretary  to  take  up  the  task 
after  the  removal  of  the  Board's  headquarters  from  Cliicago  to  New  York. 
It  was  for  him,  under  new  and  exacting  conditions,  to  plan  the  campaign 
and  to  carry  it  forward  to  success.     In  this  brief  period  he  made  his  own 

lib 


114  THE     COLLEGE     BOARD.  [1909 

personality  felt  in  the  Assembly,  the  synods  and  individual  churches; 
he  was  trusted  by  the  colleges  and  academies  with  which  he  had  official 
relations;  he  became  known  at  public  conferences,  where  his  consecration 
made  friends  for  the  cause  in  which  he  believed.  He  won  the  wealth  of 
individuals  as  well  as  their  hearts,  as  is  evidenced  when  we  learn  that  in 
his  brief  administration  the  income  of  the  Board  and  the  direct  gifts  to 
colleges  amounted  to  $7,200,000. 

Not  alone  in  income,  but  in  spiritual  results  had  he  achieved  marked 
success.  Many  of  our  colleges  received  a  marvelous  baptism  of  the 
Spirit,  and  young  men  and  women,  the  students  in  these  institutions,  were 
lirought  into  personal  contact  with  the  Master,  and  many  of  them  inspired 
for  the  ministry  and  missionary  work  in  foreign  lands.  It  was  the  devotion 
of  Dr.  Dickson  to  Jesus  Christ  that  made  possible  in  a  large  degree  these 
results.  The  cause  of  Christian  education  has  lost  in  the  death  of  this 
Secretary  a  workman  of  whom  it  lias  never  been  ashamed,  and  our  Church 
a  leader  of  whom  it  was  justly  proud.  We  therefore  express  in  this  public 
way  our  sincere  sorrow  at  his  death,  and  our  deep  appreciation  of  his 
toil  and  his  consecration. 

The  trowel  that  fell  from  Dr.  Dickson's  hands  was  taken  by  that  master 
workman,  Rev.  E.  C.  Ray,  D.D.,  who  for  so  many  years  was  the  active 
Secretary.  But  Dr.  Ray  is  now  so  ill  that  he  has  been  unable  to  be 
present  at  this  Assembly.  His  long  years  of  service  deserve,  as  they  now 
receive,  our  recognition,  and  to  him  in  his  suffering  we  extend  our  sym- 
pathy. 

In  this  crisis  of  the  Board  it  has  been  fortunate  in  having  the  wise  counsel 
and  strong  leadership  of  its  President,  Rev.  Robert  Mackenzie,  D.D.,  and 
we  rejoice  that  we  can  assure  this  Assembly  that  while  Dr.  Mackenzie 
removes  his  residence  to  the  Pacific  Coast,  the  Board  ■«'ill  continue  to 
receive  his  zeal,  guidance  and  practical  sympathy. 

II.    The  Aims  of  the  Board. 

The  College  Board  is  seeking  to  keep  alive  the  genius  of  the  fomiders 
of  this  republic  who  builded  the  college  next  to  the  church.  Their 
aspirations  were  to  make  sure  of  an  educated  republic  that  would  stem 
the  tide  of  illiteracy  which  endangers  democracies  more  than  monarchies. 
That  they  planned  with  the  genius  of  true  statesmanship  is  seen  in  the 
result  of  the  great  universities  which  are  now  so  influential  in  om-  Atlantic 
States,  the  foundations  of  which  were  laid  by  Christian  ministers. 

The  aim  of  the  present  Board  is  to  put  into  this  work  the  same  lofty 
ideals  which  inspired  the  Puritans  and  the  Scotch  and  Scotch-Irish  in  the 
early  days  of  our  national  history.  To  this  end  the  English  Bible  is  at 
the  basis  of  the  classroom  instruction,  as  it  has  always  been  in  the  beginnings 
of  all  our  higher  institutions  of  learning.  This  is  systematically  taught, 
with  reverence  and  sincere  love  for  the  Word.     It  is  not  a  book  of  historic 


1909]  GENERAL     ASSEMBLY.  II5 

literature,  but  (Jod's  ]5ook.  The  critical  examination  of  the  text  is  the 
basis  for  seekhig  the  meaning  of  the  inspired  A\Titer  avIio  penned  the  words. 
These  students  are  therefore  learning  God's  purposes,  and  will,  if  true  to 
tliis  instruction,  Iceep  the  highest  tone  of  true  patriotism  in  the  State  and 
in  the  Church. 

Christian  men  are  the  teachers  of  tlie  Bible — men  who  believe  its  truths 
and  seek  to  have  these  truths  wrought  into  the  moral  lives  of  young  men 
and  women  in  their  classrooms.  The  individuality  of  the  teacher  is  a 
potent  influence  upon  the  life  of  the  student.  Where  positive  religion 
is  emphasized  the  influence  becomes  stronger  and  more  lasting.  The 
student  will  recall  the  teacher  when  he  forgets  the  word  that  has  been 
taught.  Tlie  imiversity  is  doing  a  splendid  work  in  its  specialties,  but  the 
pupil  misses  the  contact  of  the  master  mind  wliich  is  found  in  the  smaller 
colleges.  This  does  not  mean,  however,  that  the  teaching  in  these  colleges 
is  narrow,  circumscribed  and  provincial.  On  the  other  hand,  the  courses 
of  general  instruction  in  both  the  Arts  and  Sciences  is  of  the  broadest  and 
most  generous  character;  indeed,  being  Presbyterian  it  could  not  be  other- 
Avise.  There  are  no  colleges  under  the  care  of  this  Board  where  the  cur- 
riculum falls  below  the  highest  standards  of  the  state  universities.  The 
graduates  of  our  schools,  who  are  taking  high  places  in  all  departments 
of  life,  are  the  best  testimonials  to  the  efficacy  of  these  institutions. 

The  wisdom  of  the  Board  in  this  matter  is  also  seen  in  the  revival  of 
religion  that  has  occurred  during  the  past  year,  when  618  students,  or 
nearlj^  4  per  cent,  of  the  total  number  enrolled,  were  converted.  This 
fact  also  vitally  touches  the  life  of  the  Church  in  that  we  find  here  the 
coming  ministry,  for,  as  is  well  known,  our  church  schools  are  now"  the 
soiu-ces  of  supply  for  the  benefit  of  the  missionary  field.  There  are  now 
studying  in  all  the  schools  affiliated  with  our  Church  an  armj^  of  20,000 
men  and  women  who  will  soon  take  their  places  in  the  ranks.  This  work 
may  well  awaken  om*  interest  as  well  as  command  our  sympathy. 

General  Items. 

The  changes  in  the  Constitution  of  the  Board  approved  b}'  the  last 
General  Assembly  have  been  made.  The  Board  seeks  to  safeguard  every 
dollar  received  from  givers  for  a  distinct  purpose,  and  in  order  that  it  may 
not  be  possible  for  a  college  to  turn  aside  from  the  aims  of  the  founders 
and  donors,  has  suggested  to  all  givers  of  amounts  of  over  $1,000  that  the 
gift  be  made  to  the  college  upon  these  express  conditions,  which  we  heartily 
approve : 

"1.  That  the  party  of  the  second  part  [the  college]  causes  the  Bible  to 
be  systematically  taught  to  every  regularly  enrolled  student  attend- 
ing such  institution,  as  a  part  of  the  regular  curriculum  required 
for  graduation;  one  hundred  and  fortj^-four  (144)  hours  being  the 
minimum  time  for  required  Bible  study  in  the  college  course,  oi- 


Il6  THE    COLLEGE    BOARD.  [iQOQ 

thirty-six  (36)  hours  at  least  in  each  year  thereof,  the  faculty  of  the 
party  of  the  second  part  to  be  at  liberty,  however,  to  arrange  the 
said  thirty-six  (36)  hours  according  to  their  best  judgment. 
"2.  That  the  party  of  the  second  part  [the  college]  sliall  at  all  times  after 
the  date  of  the  execution  of  this  deed  of  gift,  engage  and  retain 
upon  its  teaching  staff  only  professors  for  whose  positiv'e  Christian 
influence  the  president  of  the  party  of  the  second  part  can  vouch; 
and  that  upon  failure  thereof,"  the  gift  "shall  forthwith  revert  and 
....  be  paid  by  the  party  of  the  second  part  to  The  College 
Board  of  the  Presbyterian  Church  in  the  United  States  of  America 
....  and  shall  become  and  be  a  part  of  the  General  Fund  of  the 
said  The  College  Board." 

New  Work. 

It  is  of  interest  to  know  that  the  Board  is  deeply  conscious  of  the  fidelity 
of  our  brethren  from  the  South  and  Southwest  who  are  now  one  with  us  in 
the  common  interests  of  a  United  Church  and  that  it  will  broaden  its  work 
so  as  to  give  to  higher  education  in  that  part  of  our  country  practical 
sympathy  and  help.  From  the  Ohio  River  to  the  Gulf  of  Mexico,  an 
impetus  will  be  started  for  Presbyterian  education  in  colleges  already 
established,  and  in  others  that  may  become  affiliated  with  us.  The  very 
knowledge  of  this  fact  will,  we  are  sure,  quicken  the  ardor  and  zeal  of  our 
members  from  the  Southland,  and  in  that  they  are  to  have  all  the 
blessings  of  our  great  Church.  We  cannot  speak  in  detail  of  the  rich 
results  that  have  come  to  these  many  colleges  the  past  year,  but  we  do 
congratulate  the  Presbyterians  of  North  Dakota  that  their  coUege,  closed 
for  sixteen  years,  is  to  reopen  this  coming  fall  with  an  enrollment  of  100 
students  and  a  large  amount  of  money,  given  by  residents  of  that  State  for 
an  endowment. 

Academies. 

The  Board  has  carefully  studied  the  problem  of  the  academy  in  view  of 
the  increased  efficiency  of  the  high  school,  and  has  come  to  the  conclusion 
that  it  can  use  the  gifts  of  the  Church  with  better  effect  by  making  its 
entire  appropriation  to  colleges  rather  than  to  independent  academies. 
Therefore  it  has  adopted  the  policy  of  withholding  aid  from  academies 
not  immediately  connected  with  colleges,  but  in  withdrawing  from  this 
work  it  promises  to  do  so  with  the  least  possible  injur}'  to  these  schools. 
This  action  we  also  approve. 

Finances. 

When  we  consider  the  financial  depression  of  the  past  year  and  the  loss 
to  the  Board  of  the  Secretary,  the  returns  are  of  the  most  encouraging 
character,  as  is  seen  from  this  table  of  receipts :

We  desire  likewise  to  commend  the  Presidents  and  Boards  of  Trustees  of 
our  colleges,  who  through  their  heroic  labors  have  succeeded  not  only  in 
increasing  their  endowments,  but  also  in  meeting  their  own  expenses. 

Recommendations. 

We  offer  the  following  for  adoption  as  our  recommendations: 

1.  The  Assembly  commends  the  administrative  work  of  the  Board,  and 
hereby  approves  its  report  and  its  financial  statement  made  by  the  certi- 
fied public  accountants. 

2.  The  Assembly  rejoices  at  the  good  work  done  in  our  colleges  the  past 
year,  and  sends  its  congratulations  to  the  instructors  for  their  devotion 
and  successes  they  have  won  in  the  classrooms,  as  well  as  the  spiritual 
results  which  ha^'e  brouglit  so  many  of  their  students  to  consecrated 
Christian  living. 

3.  The  Assembly'  urges  the  official  Boards  of  our  colleges  to  secure  the 
largest  possible  contributions  from  their  constituents  and  synods  before 
seeking  gifts  from  outside  sources. 

4.  The  Assembly  suggests  to  the  presbyteries  that  they  use  all  the  means 
at  their  disposal  to  bring  the  cause  of  Cliristian  education  to  the  people  by 
the  circulation  of  literature,  the  presence  of  speakers  in  churches,  and 
appeals  to  individuals — members  of  our  denomination  in  contril)uting 
to  ('lu-istian  institutions  of  learning  are  urged  not  to  overlook  tlie  claims 


Il8  THE    COLLEGE    BOARD.  [iQOQ 

of  those  that  are  distinctively  Presbyterian;  these  contributions  when 
given,  it  is  also  suggested,  should  be  made  through  the  Board  and  its 
Treasurer, — and  we  trust  that  pastors  will  urge  their  young  people  to  avail 
themselves  of  the  opportunities  for  education  which  these  colleges  offer. 

5.  The  Assembly  advises  the  Board  to  continue  its  work  in  securing 
endowments  for  needy  colleges,  in  order  that  the  efficiency  of  these  insti- 
tutions be  improved  and  safeguarded. 

6.  The  Assembly  urges  the  Board  to  take  into  further  consideration 
the  needs  of  the  South  and  the  Southwest,  and  to  use  such  means  as  will, 
as  soon  as  possible,  extend  its  work  into  that  section  of  our  country. 

7.  The  Assembly  hereby  elects  the  following  persons  whose  terms  of 
office  expire  at  this  time:

REPORT  OF  THE  SPECIAL  COMMITTEE  ON 

SYSTEMATIC  BENEFICENCE 

OF 

THE   GENERAL  ASSEMBLY 

OF 

THE   PRESBYTERIAN   CHURCH 

IN  THE 

UNITED  STATES  OF  AMERICA 
1909 


The  Committee  on  Systematic  Beneficence  of  the  General  As- 
sembly has  been  in  existence  for  thirty  years  and  we  believe  has 
tendered  valuable  service  to  the  Presbyterian  and  other  churches 
by  making  suggestions  as  to  methods  of  supporting  the  missionary 
and  benevolent  enterprises;  by  the  distribution  of  valuable  lit- 
erature ;  by  formulating  statistical  tables ;  by  urging  contribu- 
tions from  all  our  churches  and  church  members ;  and  by  cor- 
respondence with  Committees,  Congregations,  Presbyteries  and 
Synods.  In  these  and  other  ways  your  Committee  has  sought  to 
stimulate  systematic  and  proportionate  giving  as  a  duty  to  God 
and  as  a  high  privilege.  We  feel  that  the  work  of  your  Com- 
mittee has  been  blessed  by  the  Head  of  the  Church,  and  we  can 
testify  that  in  doing  the  work  assigned  to  us,  we  have  received 
a  blessing. 

THE  WORK  OF  THE  PAST  YEAR 

During  the  past  year  your  Committee  has  prosecuted  its  work 
vigorously  by  sending  out,  on  request,  quantities  of  literature 
and  thousands  of  envelopes  and  subscription  blanks.  We  have 
also  answered  inquiries  that  have  come  to  us  from  churches, 
Presbyterial  and  Synodical  Committees.

I.— THE  ONENESS  OF  CHURCH  WORK 
A  great  forward  movement  in  giving  is  the  necessity  of  the 
hour.  At  the  present  time  many  of  our  churches  are  inadequately 
supported  and  cared  for  and  all  of  our  Boards  are  coming 
from  year  to  year  to  the  meeting  of  the  General  Assembly  with 
practically  empty  treasuries.  The  work  is  not  double,  but  one. 
Since  the  work  of  the  local  church  is  as  truly  for  the  upbuilding 
of  the  spiritual  life  of  the  community  as  the  work  in  mission 
fields,  we  can  recognize  no  division  so  far  as  the  character  of  the 
work  is  concerned  and  any  divisions  that  may  be  made  are  those 
simply  of  convenience.  The  scanty  support  in  many  cases  that 
IS  accorded  by  members  of  the  church,  not  only  to  the  support 
of  their  own  church,  but  to  that  of  the  missionary  operations  of 
♦:he  Church  as  a  whole,  is  unworthy  of  those  who  believe  that 
Jesus  Christ  is  their  Savior  and  that  they  have  been  bought 
vvith  a  price.  We  believe  that  everything  connected  with  the 
Church  of  Christ  has  a  spiritual  element  and  that  in  the  sight 
of  God  there  is  no  "secularity"  and  no  "temporality."  The  di- 
vision into  the  material  and  spiritual  is  largely  for  convenience 
■n  the  effective  prosecution  of  church  work.  We  plead  for  bet- 
ter support  of  the  missionary  causes  of  the  Church  and  also 
for  a  more  loyal  support  of  the  local  church.  Pastors  should 
have  more  adequate  salaries  and  greater  pride  be  manifested  in 
many  quarters  in  the  upkeep  of  the  Church.  Proper  respect  for 
God's  house  has  a  great  educational  value  upon  the  young  and 
m  deepening  the  spirtual  life  of  all.  One  of  the  best  ways  of 
showing  our  love  to  Christ  is  to  take  proper  care  of  the  house 
of  God.  Where  a  church  building  is  permitted  to  continue  in  a 
dilapitated  condition  with  wotn-out  carpets,  broken-backed 
hymn  books,  water-stained  ceilings,  a  squeaky  organ,  poor  light, 
miserable  ventilation  and  lack  of  adequate  heating  apparatus,  it 
discounts  the  cause  of  religion  in  the  community  where  the 
«.hurcli  is  located.  On  the  other  hand,  where  the  church  property 
is  kept  up  in  proper  condition  it  reveals  a  deep  interest  on  the 


REPORT   ON    SYSTEMATIC    BENEFICENCE  3 

part  of  its  members,  and  a  pride  in  the  house  where  God  is 
^vorshipped. 

This  being  true,  there  is  no  place  for  a  conflict  between  trus- 
tees and  sessions,  for  the  work  is  one.  There  should  be  no  line 
drawn  between  the  secular  and  the  spiritual.  The  trustees 
should  not  be  labeled  as  representing  the  State,  the  material,  and 
the  session  as  representing  the  Church,  the  spiritual.  Nor  is 
there  any  place  for  any  jealousy  between  the  two  in  efforts  for 
raising  money,  one  for  the  support  of  the  local  church  and  the 
other  for  general  benevolence.  The  fact  is  that  where  the  people  of 
a  church  keep  their  property  in  proper  repair  and  take  a  pride  in 
It  they  are  more  apt  to  be  generous  in  their  gifts  co  benevolent 
causes ;  and  on  the  other  hand,  where  church  members  are  gen- 
eious  in  their  benevolences  they  are  also  willing  to  give  largely 
to  the  support  of  the  local  church.  AmJ,  furthermore,  since 
there  is  a  unity  in  church  work,  trustees  and  sessions  mutually 
assisting  the  other,  there  ought  to  be  frequent  conference  of 
(fustees  and  church  sessions  in  order  to  unify  the  financial 
operations  of  the  congregation.  We  further  believe  that  as 
conferences  between  trustees  and  church  sessions  are  beneficial, 
so  also  there  ought  to  be  conferences  between  the  various  Boards 
of  the  Church,  to  which  is  committed  our  benevolent  work,  in 
the  interests  of  unity  and  more  thorough  co-operation.  This 
suggestion  is  in  harmony  with  the  action  of  some  of  the  Boards 
in  their  memorial  to  General  Assembly  in  1907,  that  some  plan 
ought  to  be  devised  that  would  have  a  tendency  to  "eliminate 
competition." 

TL— TWENTY-FIVE  SUGGESTIVE  METHODS 

We  are  able  by  reference  to  our  correspondence  to  answer  the 
frequent  inquiries  which  have  come  to  us  as  to  methods  in  use 
;n  our  various  churches,  and  from  this  correspondence  we  have 
selected  the  following  methods  which  have  been  adopted  and 
which  have  met  with  more  or  less  success  in  churches  of  various 
types,  in  country,  village,  town  and  city.  We  have  not  felt  it 
necessary  to  enter  into  a  careful  and  detailed  analysis  of  the 
■<  arious  methods  used  in  different  churches  but  leave  the  subject 
to  those  who  are  interested  to  find  what  may  be  helpful  in  any 
one  or  in  a  combination  of  these  methods. 


4  REPORT    ON    SYSTEMATIC    BENEFICENCE 

1 
Our  church  collects  a  gross  amount  of  money  and  then  apportions 
tt  to  the  different  boards  of  the  church. 

2 
We  make  a  separate  offering  for  Home  and  Foreign  Missions,  and 
a  combined  offering  for  the  other  six  boards. 

3 
We  use  the  envelope  system  ,and  the  funds  are  divided  between  the 
Boards  of  the  church  at  the  end  of  the  year. 

4 
We  use  the  Systematic  method,  and  apportionment  is  made  in  accord- 
ance with  the  percentage  plan  as  suggested  by  our  Assembly. 

5 
Every  offering  we  take  is  for  some  one  of  the  missionary  enterprises. 
We  give  the  offerings  for  two  months  to  Home  and  Foreign  work 
and  one  month  or  less  to  each  of  the  others. 

6 

We  are  fully  enrolled  in  the  ranks  of  Systematic  Benevolence.  The 
envelope  system  is  quite  largely  used  not  only  in  our  Church  but  the 
Sabbath  School,  as  well. 

7 
As  to  our  method,  a  Committee,  known  as  the  "Benevolent  Fund  Com- 
mittee," composed  of  twenty  business  men,  with  myself,  of  course,  as 
member  ex-officio,  manage  the  benevolences  of  the  church.  At  the 
beginning  of  the  year,  we  place  before  the  congregation  our  plans  for 
extension,  if  we  undertake  such.  We  avoid  through  the  year  all  special 
appeals,  except  in  very  exceptional  cases.  Promises  are  secured  from 
people,  yearly,  as  to  what  they  will  do  and  sermons  and  addresses  upon 
our  different  schemes  of  work  during  the  remainder  of  the  year  are 
educative. 

8 

The  custom  here  is,  (1)  to  have  a  list  of  pledged  subscriber?  who 
make  up  the  amount  for  our  Foreign  and  for  Home  Missionary.  (2)  What 
'he  Boards  get  is  taken  in  envelopes  placed  in  the  pews.  A  month  is 
given  to  each  and  any  time  during  the  month  the  envelope  may  be  put 
on  the  plate.  This  is  not  very  successful.  Therefore,  we  are  making  a 
change  which  will  fix  Foreign  and  Home  Missions'  call  for  two  special 
(lays  when  the  gifts  will  be  brought. 

9 

In  addition  to  pew  rents  we  receive  Free  Will  Offering  pledges.  The 
Trustees  are  permitted  to  draw  from  the  "F.  W.  O."  fund  to  the  extent 
cf  $300  per  month  for  current  expenses,  provided  so  much  is  needed 
.n  addition  to  what  they  receive  from  the  pew  rentals.  The  whole  al- 
lowance is  usually  drawn.  The  balance  is  distributed  to  the  Boards 
in  accordance  with  the  Assembly's  recommendation.  By  special  offerings 
v/e  also  support  a  Foreign  Missionary  Pastor,  $850  and  a  Home  Mis- 
sionary, $600.

Our  method  for  securing  our  benevolence  money  is  montly  collec- 
tions, at  the  church  services,  the  envelope  system,  and  pledges.  By  the 
envelope  system  we  take  pledges  also  for  church  support  and  beyond  a 
certain  sum,  we  pay  to  the  Boards  dividing  the  money  according  to  the 
General  Assembly's  ratio.  Our  church  is  supported  by  pew  rentals, 
pledges,  and  plate  offerings. 

11 

The  methods  in  use  are :  Continuous  announcements,  on  the  calendar 
of  the  appointed  dates  of  the  offerings ;  preliminary  announcement  or 
appeal  the  Sunday  immediately  preceding  the  offering;  discussion  of  the 
work  at  the  mid-week  service — the  hour  being  usually  given;  urgent 
word  on  the  Sunday  when  the  money  is  gathered ;  occasionally,  indi- 
vidual work  to  enlarge  the  amount. 

12 

Our  benevolences  are  administered  by  a  Board  of  Benevolence,  the 
pastor  President,  three  members  of  the  Session  and  three  from  the 
congregation.  They  act,  of  course,  under  the  direction  and  with  the 
approval  of  the  Session.  The  funds  are  collected  by  weekly  envelope 
system,  though  each  subscriber  may  suit  his  convenience  as  to  when 
he  shall  pay  his  subscription.  The  objects  may  be  designated  but  they 
never  are.  At  the  end  of  the  fiscal  year,  the  total  amount  received  is 
disbursed  and  distributed  according  to  the  discretion  of  the  local  board 
among  the  eight  boards  of  the  Church. 

This  simple  plan  works  well.  The  only  difficulty  being  in  securing 
subscriptions  so  that  the  whole  membership  of  the  church  shall  be 
represented  in  the  benevolences.  Still  this  method  has  yielded  larger  re- 
sults than  any  we  have  ever  experimented  with. 

13 

We  secure  our  benevolences  in  two  ways,  namely,  first  by  a  system 
of  free  will  offering  pledges,  through  which  we  endeavor  to  secure  from 
each  member  of  our  congregation  a  pledge  for  a  definite  sum  to  be 
paid  weekly  in  envelope  provided  for  the  purpose.  This  brings  us  in 
about  $9,000  a  year,  and  is  apportioned  among  cur  denominational  Boards 
and  by  the  Session.  Second,  we  have  a  Sunday  in  each  month  on  which 
we  give  the  opportunity  to  the  people  to  contribute  to  each  Board.  So 
if  anyone  has  a  preference  he  can  indulge  it. 

14 

We  have  only  one  offering  a  year  for  each  Board.  Before  the  date 
of  each  offering  a  postal  card  is  sent  to  each  family  in  the  congregation 
.ctating  briefly  the  needs  of  that  particular  cause  and  the  amount  we 
gave  last  year  .  Usually  we  ask  for  a  certain  percentage  of  increase. 
Before  the  Sunday  for  the  Home  Board  and  the  Foreign,  I  preach  a 
sermon  ad  rem.  Our  system  is,  in  a  word,  to  reach  every  member  of  the 
congregation  by  a  direct  appeal  for  each  Board.  By  frequent  reference 
[O  the  cause  of  Missions  I  keep  the  work  all  the  time  before  the  people. 
We  place  in  the  pews  literature  sent  by  the  Boards  the  Sunday  before 
ihe  respective  offerings.

1  divide  my  parish  into  eight  collection  districts  and  have,  under  the 
direction  of  the  session,  eight  collectors,  who  make  monthly  collections 
for  what  is  called  by  them  "The  Benevolent  Fund"  of  the  Church. 
The  contributions  to  this  fund  vary  from  10c  to  $10  a  month.  At  the 
end  of  the  year  this  fund  is  reported  to  Session  and  an  appropriation 
made  from  it  (1)  for  the  poor  of  the  Church,  (2)  for  local  Missions,  t.3) 
for  ecclesiastical  and  Communion  expense,  (4)  for  the  home  Sunday 
School,  so  that  every  cent  of  the  children's  contributions  may  go  to 
the  Boards  of  the  Church,  and  (5)  the  remainder  is  given  to  the  eight 
boards  as  the  Assembly  directs  the  proportions. 

16 
The  offerings  at  our  Sunday  morning  services,  excepting  the  six 
communions,  go  into  our  Missionary  and  Benevolent  Fund,  from  which 
appropriations  are  made  by  the  Session  to  the  various  Boards.  These 
ordinary  offerings  are  supplemented  by  special  offerings  at  Christmas 
and  Easter  for  Foreign  and  Home  Missions  respectively. 

We  do  all  we  can  to  encourage  systematic  giving.  About  500  of  our 
members  contribute  on  the  weekly  pledge  system  and  many  others  give 
a  regular  sum  without  any  written  pledge,  making  up  for  absent  Sun- 
days. 

17 
Our  method  of  supporting  Church  Boards  is  as  follows :     From  the 
Sunday   morning   offerings    we   deduct    10   per    cent,    for    an    emergency 
fund  by  which  we  can   support  deserving  causes  and  local   Church  and 
City  Mission  work. 

The  remaining  90  per  cent,  of  the  morning  offerings  is  applied  as 
follows : 

Foreign   Missions  25  per  cent. 

Home    Missions    25  per  cent. 

Church  Erection  7  per  cent. 

College    Board    7  per  cent. 

Education    7  per  cent. 

Ministerial    Relief    6  per  cent. 

Sustentation  5  per  cent. 

Freedmen    4  per  cent. 

Publication    4  per  cent. 

I  am  trying  to  induce  every  member  of  the  congregation  to  pledge 
a  definite  sum  for  the  Sabbath  morning  offering,  (to  be  paid  whether 
ihe  donor  is  present  or  absent)  and  based  upon  the  principle  of  systematic 
and  proportionate  giving.  This  pledge  system  is  in  its  first  year  of 
operation  and  although  not  a  quarter  of  the  church  membership  have 
adopted  it  I  am  hoping  that  the  income  of  the  church  boards  will  be 
nearly  doubled  this  year  by  even  the  partial  adoption  of  the  pledge. 
On  the  whole,  I  do  not  know  any  better  system  than  the  above. 

18 
At  the  beginning  of  the  church  year  we  make  out  a  schedule   and 
adhere  to  same  strictly. 


REPORT    ON    SYSTEMATIC    BENEFICENCE  7 

We  give  to  the  Boards  on  26  Sundays,  through  the  medium  of 
tnvelopes,  each  of  which  bears  the  name  of  particular  board,  date,  etc. 
The  number  of  collections  made  to  each  board  depends  upon  the  im- 
portance which  we  .attach  to  the  various  boards,  and  if  we  find  towards 
;-he  end  of  the  year  that  any  Board  has  suffered,  we  manage  to  rob  the 
trustees  of  a  morning  offering  by  running  in  an  extra  offering  for 
ihe  sufferer. 

All  our  collections  in  Sunday  Schools  go  to  the  Boards  and  the 
Church  pays  its  expenses.  We  also  have  our  own  Missionary,  assigned 
to  Mountain  White  Section. 

The  steps  briefly  outlined  are  these : 

19 

(1)  A  circular  letter  gotten  up  by  the  Pastor  in  consultation  with 
the  church  officials  is  sent  out  to  every  member  of  the  church  and 
congregation  a  few  weeks  before  the  end  of  the  financial  year,  setting 
forth  claims,  demands,  reasons  for  liberal  cnotribution  to  the  "Beneficient 
Fund."  With  this  circular  letter  goes  a  card  as  enclosed  to  be  filled  up 
and  put  on  plate  or  mailed  to  the  Treasurer  of  the  Fund  at  a  time  be- 
fore April  1st,  if  at  all  possible. 

(2)  When  most  cards  have  been  returned,  the  Treasurer  sends 
out  52  envelopes  to  each  one  pledged  as  enclosed  for  your  information. 

(3)  These  envelopes  are  placed  in  plates  as  the  year  advances. 

(4)  Either  during  the  year  or  at  the  end  of  the  financial  year,  the 
joint  officials  of  the  church  in  a  union  meeting  apportion  the  funds 
among  the  Boards  as  per  Assembly's  ratio  or  near  it  and  among  the 
iocal  necessities  of  the  church. 

The  plan  works  well,  all  are  pleased  with  it.     Quite  a  success. 
In  case  some  may  not  respond  a  committee  of  three,  one  elder  and 
one  trustee   and  one   deacon   endeavor   to   encourage   a   response   to   the 
ciicular  letter  of  March. 

Only  the  Treasurer  and  auditors  know  anything  of  amounts  of  indi- 
vidual gifts. 

20 

Our  church  for  some  years  has  used  the  pledging  system.  At  the 
beginning  of  the  fall  the  congregation  makes  pledges  for  the  various 
objects.  The  week  before  the  day  for  the  offering  envelopes  appropriately 
marked  are  sent  to  the  people  both  those  who  have  pledged  and  those 
who  have  not.  The  plan  does  not  bring  the  best  results  and  we  are 
soon  to  supplement  it  by  adding  the  Budget  feature,  making  an  annual 
pledge  for  Benevolence,  designating  or  not  as  the  donor  desires.  Then 
a  distribution  by  percentage,  unless  the  gifts  are  designated,  gifts  to  be 
Drought  weekly,  monthly  or  quarterly,  as  desired.  This  is  the  Assembly's 
plan  with  some  modification. 

21 

As  to  beneficence,  we  employ  the  pledged,  weekly,  envelope  offering 
plan.  Out  of  the  total  amount  received  there  is  first  taken  a  goodly 
sum  for  the  Trustees'  fund,  needed  above  amounts  received  from  pew 
subscriptions.     Then  $250  for  the  Session  fund,  and  as  much  for  Home 


8  REPORT    ON    SYSTEMATIC    BENEFICENCE 

Sunday  School  maintenance,  and  the  remainder  divided  not  only  among 
ihe  Boards  of  our  Church  but  also  among  local  charities  according  to 
a  percentage  annually  agreed  upon  by  the  congregation  upon  the  recom- 
mendation of  the  Session.  This  remains  largely  the  same  from  year 
to  year,  e.  g;,  Foreign  Missions  get  38  per  cent,  and  Home  Missions 
27  per  cent.,  etc.,  yet  it  is  always  subject  to  variation  and  improvement. 
I' or  instarlte,  we  feel  that  we  here  and  the  Presbytery,  are  doing  too 
much  relatively  to  the  support  of  the  weak  churches  of  this  Presbytery 
and  the  amount  will,  therefore,  be  lessened. 

If  any  change  is  made  in  this  single  budget  plan  another  year  it  will 
be  to  raise  all  we  need  for  our  own  maintenance  in  one  envelope  and 
all  we  devote  for  benevolence  in  another. 

22 

Our  Foreign  Missions'  contribution  is  made  on  the  Systematic  giv- 
ng  plan.  Pledges  are  secured  once  a  year  und  the  payments  are  made 
in  envelopes  placed  in  special  Foreign  Missions  boxes  in  the  church. 
We  have  a  "Parish  Abroad"  and  information  concerning  it  is  given 
to  the  people  as  often  as  possible  by  circular  letter  or  pulpit  announce- 
ment. 

The  other  Boards  of  the  church  have  each  one  Sunday  in  the 
year  on  which  a  collection  for  their  benefit  is  received.  Leaflets  con- 
cerning the  work  of  each  Board  are  distributed  on  the  Sunday  pre- 
ceding the  offering  and  due  announcement  is  made.  The  literature  of  the 
Home  Board  is  distributed  in  the  pews  about  once  a  month  regularly, 
and  the  week  before  the  annual  offering  is  leceived  a  letter  enclosing 
email  envelopes  is  addressed  to  every  member  of  the  congregation  urging 
the  needs  of  the  work. 

We  receive  offerings  for  the  sustentation  fund  of  our  church  only 
once  a  month,  all  the  other  offerings  are  divided  among  the  Boards 
according  to  the  General  Assembly's  suggested  apportionment,  except 
occasional  offerings  to  the  American  Bible  Society,  Synodical  Home 
Missions,  etc. 

23 

A  letter  is  sent  by  Session  to  all  members  of  the  church  and  congre- 
gation prior  to  the  offering  for  Home  Missions  in  November  and  Foreign 
Missions  in  January.  Besides  these  letters,  the  cause  is  advocated  at 
the  mid-week  service  preceding  the  offering,  a  custom  which  we  follow 
for  all  the  boards  of  the  church.  In  this  way  the  boards  of  the  church 
are  brought  before  the  people  every  year.  Besides  this,  the  various 
benevolences  of  our  church  are  presented  to  the  Sunday  School,  and 
all  the  gifts  of  the  Sunday  School  throughout  the  year,  with  the  ex- 
ception of  one  Sunday,  go  to  benevolence.  Thus,  our  church,  from  the 
primary  school  up,  is  educated  in  the  work  of-  the  Presbyterian  Church 
in  the  whole  world.  We  believe  that  this  means  of  educating  the  people 
nnd  raising  funds  for  benevolences  is  only  less  efficient  than  the  weekly, 
or  monthly  pledges,  which  we  have  not  yet  been  able  to  introduce  into 
our  church. 

24 

The    bulk    of    our    contributions    is    received    through    the    weekly 


REPORT    ON    SYSTEMATIC    BENEFICENCE  9 

Duplex  Envelope,  one  being  for  church  support,  and  the  other  for 
Forward  Movement.  The  funds  received  through  the  Forward  Move- 
ment end  are  used  for  the  support  of  our  church  missionaries  in  Big 
Laurel,  N.  C,  Aguadilla.  Porto  Rico,  and  Seoul,  Korea.  This  money 
is  forwarded  to  the  Boards  of  Home  and  Foreign  Missions  for  the 
payment  of  the  salaries  of  these  missionaries.  In  addition  to  this,  we 
make  a  special  offering  on  the  second  Sabbath  of  each  month,  which 
goes  to  the  eight  boards  of  the  Church,  Committee  on  Temperance, 
Synodical  Home  Missions,  American  Tract  Society  and  American  Bible 
Society.  The  offerings  of  February  and  October  are  devoted  to  the 
Board  of  Foreign  ^Missions  and  the  offerings  of  April  and  November 
are  devoted  to  the  Board  of  Home  Missions.  I  enclose  you  herewith 
clipping  from  our  weekly  bulletin  which  shows  our  schedule  of  special 
offerings.  During  the  week  preceding  the  second  Sabbath  our  Com- 
mittee on  Benevolences  sends  a  letter  to  each  family  in  the  church 
explaining  the  work  of  the  Board  for  which  the  offering  will  be  received. 

This  system  has  been  very  successful,  and  through  its  use,  the 
offerings  of  our  church  to  the  various  Boards  have  been  greatly  in- 
creased. Since  its  adoption  about  six  years  ago  there  has  been  a  steady 
increase,  and  we  are  now  giving  more  to  the  general  work  of  the  Boards, 
Hnd,  in  addition,  are  paying  the  entire  salaries  of  missionaries  in  the 
above  mentioned  stations,  and  within  a  few  months  expect  to  be  able  to 
carry  the  salary  of  another  missionary  on  the  foreign  field. 

25 

For  most  of  the  Beards  we  have  no  special  method,  simply  pre- 
senting the  cause  and  urging  subscriptions.  Frequently  we  have  envelopes 
distributed  previously  to  be  brought  in  on  the  Sunday  appointed.  In- 
deed for  some  of  the  Boards  we  usually  follow  this  method,  having 
the  envelopes  placed  in  the  packages  of  envelopes  which  are  used  for 
the  subscriptions  for  current  expenses,  so  that  when  one  takes  his 
envelope  for  the  week  he  sees  this  other  envelope  of  different  color 
narked  with  the  cause  for  which  the  special  amount  is  asked. 

For  the  Home  and  Foreign  Boards,  however,  we  have  a  special  plan 
which  I  think  different  from  any  I  know.  The  second  Sunday  in 
January  is  Foreign  Mission  Day.  On  that  Sunday  I  usually  present  the 
cause  myself,  sometimes,  however,  having  a  secretary  or  missionary.  At 
the  close  of  the  sermon  I  present  subscription  cards  saying  that  we 
want  subscriptions  rather  than  cash.  These  cards  are  passed  through 
the  congregation  by  elders,  with  pencils,  seeing  that  every  individual  gets 
one.  The  cards  call  for  subscriptions  on  the  weekly  envelope  plan  so 
much  a  week  for  12  weeks.  Then  the  cards  are  kept  handy  for  a  week 
or  two  afterwards  to  gather  in  the  stragglers.  To  some  few  individuals 
personal  letters  may  be  written.  One  year  when  the  Sunday  was  very 
stormy  the  elders  divided  those  not  heard  from  and  went  after  them 
personally.     Last   year   the    Sunday   appointed    was    very    bad ;    we   had 

Dr.  to  present  the  cause.     The  next  Sunday  I  preached  on  it 

myself  and  we  got  our  accustomed  amount. 

For  Home  Missions  we  follow  the  same  plan  beginning  the  second 
Sunday  in  April. 


10  REPORT   ON    SYSTEMATIC    BENEFICENCE 

We  raise  the  money  to  support  two  on  foreign  field  and  two  on 
home  field  as  you  see  by  Bulletin.  We  keep  their  names  constantly 
before  the  church  and  print  their  photos  in  Year  Book  and  other  litera- 
ture. I  think,  however,  that  our  12-week  scheme  is  more  effective  with  us 
than  the  individual  missionary. 

Ours  is  a  church  of  people  of  moderate  means,  we  get  no  subscrip- 
tion over  $50  or  $60  towards  the  $1,400  or  $1,500  we  raise.  I  do  not 
know  how  to  bring  the  matter  any  closer  home  than  we  do  but  even 
so  though  we  raise  this  considerable  amount  in  small  subscriptions,  there 
are  many  who  stay  out  of  it  altogether  and  I  do  not  know  how  to 
leach  them.  If  we  could  get  even  nominal  sums  from  those  who  give 
nothing  the  total  would  be  much  larger. 

III.— THE  SERIOUS  PROBLEM  OF  THE  CHURCH. 

There  is,  at  the  present  time,  wide  dissatisfaction  with  the 
present  methods  of  securing  the  money  that  is  necessary  in 
carrying  on  the  work  of  Christ's  kingdom.  This  sentiment 
found  an  expression  in  a  memorial  sent  by  the  Board  of  the 
Church  to  the  General  Assembly  of  1907  in  which  it  is  said 
that:  "We  are  persuaded  that  our  enlarged  work  demands  a 
surer  and  larger  income.  We  believe  that  in  our  present  method 
of  securing  such  income  we  have  practically  reached  the  Hmit  and 
that  a  new  financial  plan  for  our  benevolent  work  is  imperatively 
demanded."  Measured  by  the  gifts  of  the  Church  it  is  evident 
that  our  people  do  not  appreciate  the  full  significance  of  the 
sixth  chapter  of  the  "Directory  for  Worship"  entitled  "The 
Worship  of  God  by  Offerings,"  which  enjoins  that  such  offer- 
ings be  performed  as  "a  solemn  act  of  worship  to  Almighty 
God."  This  lack  of  appreciation  of  giving  as  "a  solemn  act 
of  worship"  is  not  limited  to  our  church.  Rev.  Hugh  Miller 
Thompson,  Bishop  of  Mississippi,  voices  the  same  thought  in  his 
recent  leaflet  on  "The  Offeratory,  a  Lost  Act  of  Worship,"  in 
which  he  says : 

"The  idea  of  an  offering,  as  distinguished  from  a  propitiatory 
sacrifice,  is  that  of  consecrating  a  man's  gains,  the  fruits  of  his 
life  and  work,  by  presenting  a  portion  to  Him  who  gives  all 
life  and  strength.  The  first  fruit  is  made  holy,  that  the  whole 
lump  may  be  holy.  The  acknowledgement  is  made  of  God  the 
giver,  that  on  Him  depends  all  good,  that  from  Him  comes 
all  blessing,  and  that  a  man  so  recognizes  Him  and  His  law, 
and  so  lives  under  that  law,  that  he  can  humbly  hope  his  life  is 
acceptable,  and  that  God  will  accept  some  part  of  the  labor  of  his 


REPORT   ON    SYSTEMATIC    BENEFICENCE  11 

brain  and  hands.  Is  this  idea  wholly  lost  in  Christianity?  Is 
it  not  an  idea  of  the  very  base  of  any  religious  life  whatever? 
Js  it  not  as  essential  to  a  Christian  as  to  a  Jew?  Of,  if 
H'e  look  at  if  from  the  other  side,  that  an  offering  is  an  acknowl- 
edgement made  to  God  of  blessings  received,  has  not  the  Chris- 
Man  as  much  to  make  acknowledgement  for  as  the  Jew?  The 
early  church  clearly  answered  all  these  questions  in  the  affirmative. 
She  incorporated  into  her  services  the  idea  of  the  offering.  She 
was  not  content  only  with  prayer  and  praise  and  confession; 
she  also  required  a  material  gift — something  more  than  words. 
an  actual  offering  to  be  laid  upon  the  altar — as  an  essential 
part  of  her  worship.  The  idea  of  the  offering  as  a  central  act 
cf  worship — as  a  condition  of  appearing  before  the  Lord  in 
His  house — passed  over  from  the  Jewish  Church  to  the  Christian 
as  naturally  as  prayer,  as  naturally  as  the  Psalms,  and  the  read- 
ing of  the  Prophets." 

He  further  says :  "Men  are  taught  that  giving  to  the  Lord 
is  an  essential  part  of  public  worship,  quite  as  essential  as  singing 
or  praying.  They  are  to  be  instructed  in  the  plain  truth  that 
words  must  go  out  in  deeds.  They  must  recognize  the  alms 
basin  as  an  essential  part  of  church  furniture,  the  putting  of 
money  into  it  as  a  devotional  act.  Their  special  attention  must  be 
called  to  the  name  by  which  their  contributions  given  in  church, 
are  called  in  the  plain  English  of.  the  Prayer  Book,  "The  de- 
votions of  the  people !" 

IV.    WHAT  ABOUT  THE  TITHE  SYSTEM? 

During  the  past  year  your  Committee  has  received  increasing 
inquiries  in  reference  to  the  tithe  and  its  practical  workings  in 
the  churches  and  among  the  people,  and  we  have  thought  possibly 
it  might  be  a  help  to  many  to  incorporate  in  this  report  some 
matters  of  interest  on  the  tithe.  Christian  stewardship  and  the 
tithe  are  closely  associated  together,  both  resting  on  the  general 
principle  that  we  are  not  our  own  but  we  belong  to  God  and  he 
has  a  claim  upon  us. 

The  church  as  a  whole  is  trifling  with  the  cause  of  benevolence. 
As  nine-tenths  of  the  giving  is  done  by  one-tenth  of  the  church, 
there  is  an  indication  that  there  is  but  very  little  sense  of  responsi- 
bility on  the  part  of  the  average  church  member  to  the  great  work 
of  Christ  in  the  world.     It  becomes,  then,  a  very  serious  matter 


12  REPORT   ON    SYSTEMATIC    BENEFICENCE 

for  the  General  Assembly  to  consider  what  steps  should  be  taken 
in  order  to  change  the  attitude  of  the  average  member  of  the 
church  to  the  evident  work  that  the  Lord  expects  His  church  to 
do  in  the  world.  People  reheve  themselves  of  the  responsibihty 
of  the  tithe  on  the  ground  that  they  are  living  under  the  New 
Testament  dispensation;  and  then  they  relieve  themselves  of 
giving  on  the  ground  that  they  need  so  much  for  themselves ;  and 
some  even  go  so  far  as  to  consider  that  the  adequate  care  of  them- 
selves is  all  that  the  Lord  can  reasonably  expect  of  them!  The 
result  is  that  between  the  seeming  contrast  of  the  Old  Testament 
plan  with  the  New  Testament  dispensation,  the  people  relieve 
themselves  altogether  of  any  responsibility. 

In  several  of  the  recommendations  which  the  General  Assembly 
has  passed  in  previous  years,  the  attention  of  the  Church  has  been 
called  in  a  general  way  to  the  tithe  or  the  tenth ;  and  in  view  of 
the  fact  that  all  the  present  plans  and  methods  devised  in  obtain- 
ing money  for  the  Lord's  work  are  so  utterly  inadequate  to  the 
work  to  be  done,  it  becomes  a  serious  question  whether  this  very 
condition  of  things  is  not  an  indication  of  providence  that  it  would 
be  the  wise  policy  on  the  part  of  the  General  Assembly  to  take 
some  positive  action  in  commending  to  the  earnest  and  careful 
consideration  of  the  entire  Church  the  duty  of  all  members  of  the 
church  to  set  apart  a  definite  portion  of  their  income  for  the 
Lord's  work.  If  the  claim  of  the  tithe  has  been  abrogated  and 
there  is  no  adequate  claim  under  the  dispensation  of  Christ  for  a 
substitute  for  this  claim  on  the  conscience  of  the  average  member 
of  the  church  that  is  equal  to  the  tithe,  it  leaves  the  average 
church  member  to  the  mercy  of  the  evils,  on  the  one  side,  of 
covetousness,  and  on  the  other,  unrestrained  luxury;  which,  under 
the  Old  Testament  dispensation,  founds  its  antidote  in  the  tithe 
that  recognized  God  as  having  a  claim  on  a  portion  of  the  entire 
income.  It  must  also  be  clearly  kept  in  mind  that  the  Lord 
greatly  blessed  the  Hebrew  people  in  proportion  as  they  observed 
the  tithe;  but  when  they,  in  their  prosperity  began  to  begrudge 
the  Lord  his  portion  and  substituted  the  halt,  the  lame  and  the 
blind,  immediately  the  moral  character  of  the  people  deteriorated 
and  the  sanctuary  became  deserted !  The  experience  of  the  past 
has  proved  that  there  is  very  little  growth  in  grace  on  the  part 
of  the  people  that  is  not  nourished  by  increased  giving  for  the 
sustaining  of  the  Lord's  work.     A  campaign  of  education  in  pre- 


REPORT   ON    SYSTEMATIC    BENEFICENCE  13 

senting  the  claims  of  the  Church  upon  its  entire  membership  that 
a  tenth  should  be  set  aside  for  the  Lord's  work  and  being  fol- 
lowed by  our  members  would  give  abundant  support  to  the  work 
of  our  Church.  The  average  income  of  every  man,  woman  and 
child  in  this  country  is  estimated  at  $175  a  year.  If  the  members 
of  our  Church  were  to  set  aside  a  tenth  it  would  mean  an  income 
of  at  least  some  $25,000,000  yearly. 

It  must  be  regarded  that  money-giving  is  a  fundamental  virtue, 
and  in  view  of  the  materialistic  tendencies  of  our  age  it  is  one  of 
the  great  virtues.  This  virtue  neglected,  everything  seems  to 
deteriorate  now  as  it  did  in  the  days  of  the  Jews.  There  is  much 
need  for  a  prayer  to  be  offered  by  many  as  was  offered  by  a  man 
solicitous  about  his  lack  of  generosity :  'T  am  inclined  to  be  stingy 
with  the  Lord.     O,  Lord,  increase  my  desire  to  give." 

The  proof  of  the  sincerity  of  a  man's  Christian  profession  is 
its  effect  upon  his  benefactions.  Parents  little  realize  the  effect 
upon  their  children  by  the  manner  in  which  they  give  for  the 
support  of  the  cause  of  Christ  and  His  Kingdom ;  and  many  par- 
ents have  themselves  to  blame  for  the  alienation  of  their  children 
from  the  house  of  God  by  showing  to  their  children  their  unbelief 
in  the  cause  of  Christ  by  their  stinginess. 

Professor  Bosworth  speaks  of  Jesus'  plan  for  the  establishment 
of  the  civilization  of  Heaven  upon  earth.  We  are  what  we  are 
today  because  of  what  Jesus  Christ  has  done  for  us  individually. 
Do  you  believe  in  the  plan  that  Christ  has  inaugurated  for  the 
establishment  of  the  civilization  of  Heaven  upon  earth  ?  Can  you 
believe  that  there  is  such  a  plan  without  some  adequate  provision 
for  its  carrying  out?  At  present  we  have  no  adequate  plan  to 
lay  before  the  people,  definitely  and  clearly,  that  will  properly 
care  for  our  part  in  the  world's  redemption.  It  seems  to  your 
Committee  that  some  definite  plan  ought  to  be  pressed  home  upon 
the  conscience  of  the  people  that  will  compel  those  who  accept 
Christ  as  their  Lord  and  Savior  to  see  clearly  that  with  the  accept- 
ance of  Christ  as  their  personal  Savior  there  is  involved  the  co- 
operating with  Christ  in  the  establishment  of  his  kingdom  in  this 
world,  and  to  do  this  it  is  the  duty  and  obligation  of  everyone  to 
set  aside  a  portion  of  his  income  for  this  work.  Someone  has 
said:  "A  church  will  not  pray  better  than  it  pays."  Until  the 
Church  learns  to  use  the  lower  money  power  unselfishly  how  can 
God  trust  it  with  the  higher  power  of  prayer?     It  will  be  crim- 


14  REPORT    ON    SYSTEMATIC    BENEFICENCE 

inal  for  him  to  say  to  a  church  that  uses  its  money  selfishly : 
"Ask  what  ye  will,  and  it  shall  be  done  unto  you."  It  is  well  for 
us  to  keep  in  mind  the  close  association  that  Paul  brings  of  the 
power  of  the  Christian  over  death  and  of  the  resurrection  and  the 
"collection."  This  world  must  be  conquered  for  Christ  by  all 
the  members  of  the  Church  giving  systematically  and  proportion- 
ately to  the  work. 

Dr.  Bashford  states  that  he  believes  that  God  is  seeking  finan- 
cial partners  as  well  as  he  is  seeking  mental  and  spiritual  workers. 
Men  can  as  truly  work  for  God  in  their  business  and  for  the 
Lord's  work  as  can  be  done  by  preaching  the  Gospel  from  the 
pulpit;  and  there  should  be  more  men  enter  a  Christian  business 
life  for  the  Lord's  cause !  There  is  need  at  the  present  time  of 
a  revival  of  personal  religion  and  the  consecration  of  wealth ; 
and  these  are  so  closely  associated  that  the  one  will  carry  the 
other,  and  these  will  sanctify  secular  life  and  a  great  forward 
movement  in  the  evangelization  of  the  world  will  be  inaugurated. 
As  soon  as  the  members  of  the  Church  see  clearly  that  the  claim 
of  the  Lord  upon  a  definite  portion  of  their  income  is  a  duty,  there 
will  be  an  abundance  in  the  Lord's  treasury  for  his  work  and  the 
Old  Testament  blessing  of  the  Lord  will  be  poured  out ! 

In  this  report  we  do  not  enter  upon  a  full  discussion  of  the  tithe 
5>ystem;  why  it  is  obligatory  upon  Christians;  nor  why  when  giving  to 
God  is  neglected,  Christian  graces  shrivel  up.  We  content  ourselves 
by  giving  illustrations  of  the  effect  of  the  system  and  cite  these  valuable 
testimonies : 

"The  movement  in  favor  of  'bringing  the  whole  tithe  into  the 
storehouse,'  the  modern  Church,  has  now  reached  such  dimensions  that 
it  is  possible  to  compare  the  contributions  of  a  tithing  with  a  non-tithing 
church  membership,  of  paying  with  so-called  'giving.' " 

While  it  is  known  that  the  difference  would  be  striking  the  most 
sanguine  advocates  of  tithing  are  surprised  at  the  net  results.  A  brief 
summary  of  the  figures  furnished  by  the  nufnber  of  churches  is  here- 
with given : 

Of  a  total  membership  of  568,158,  tithers  paid  seven-eights  of  the 
entire  contributions  received  by  the  church.  The  410  other  contributors 
paiQ  oC"-eighth.  Of  the  tithers,  12  were  children,  105  women  and  45 
:iien. 

Out  of  membership  of  85,  the  average  per  capita  of  the  non-tithers 
was  $5.67 ;  tithers,  $18.80. 

In  the  Church,  thee  were  150  members  when  the  plan  was  com- 
menced. At  the  end  of  the  first  quarter  the  19  tithers  gave  47  per  cent, 
of  all  that  came  into  the  church  treasury. 

Out  of  a  congregation  of  213,  50  are  tithers.     Those  50  contribute 


REPORT    ON    SYSTEMATIC    BENEFICENCE  15 

about    three-fourths    of    the    regular    church    offerings,    and    about    five- 
sixths  of  the  mission  offerings. 

In  the  Church  there  ar°  70  tithers,  comprising  about  30  families,  in 
a  membership  of  some  600.  These  70  from  January  1st  to  October  1st, 
contributed  $3,013.97,  while  the  remaining  530  contributed  $1,742.26. 

The  Church  has  had  the  system  in  operation.  I  understand,  for 
about  25  years.  The  membership  in  1905  showed  45  tithers,  270  non- 
lithers.  The  45  contributed  to  missions  an  average  of  $13.60  each;  the 
non-tithers,  93  cents  each. 

In  the  Church  of  546  members,  non-tithers  contributed  for  missions, 
$421.50;  tithers  contributed,  $588.50;  average  for  tithers,  $10.90;  non- 
tithers,  n  cents. 

In  the  Church,  27  tithers  out  of  a  total  membership  of  695  brought 
in  one-fourth  of  the  total  amount  contributed  for  the  work  of  the 
Church  in  the  City  of  Buffalo  and  the  world  at  large. 

Let  no  one  suppose  that  the  tithers  in  these  churches  are  the  specially 
well-to-do.  In  nearly  every  instance  where  the  facts  are  not  given, 
private  letters  stated  that  the  largest  proportion  of  the  tithers  are  women 
and   children,   many   of   them   without   regular   income. 

A  common  object  to  tithing  is  the  apparent  hardship  it  entails  upon 
<he  poor.  Facts  and  experience  show  that  the  so-called  poor  are  the 
first  to  adopt  it  and  most  heartily  enjoy  it. 

After  reading  and  reflecting  on  these  figures,  no  reasonable  man  will 
claim  that  there  is  any  adequate  reason  why  the  Church  should  continue 
to  occupy  its  present  disgraceful  begging  position  before  the  world  in 
the  matter  of  financial  and  especially  missionary  support.  The  great 
question  is  that  of  conviction  and  courage  on  the  part  of  ministers. 

WILLIAM    COLGATE'S    GIVING. 

Many  years  ago  a  boy  of  sixteen  years  left  home  to  seek  his 
fortune.  Carrying  all  his  belongings  in  a  little  bundle  he  made  his  way 
<lown  the  tow-path  toward  the  great  city.  As  he  trudged  along  he  met 
^.n  old  neighbor,  the  captain  of  a  canal  boat,  and  the  following  conver- 
sation took  place : 

"Well,  William,  where  are  you  going?" 

"I  don't  know,"  he  replied.  "Father  is  too  poor  to  keep  me  at  home 
any  longer,  and  says  I  must  now  make  a  living  for  myself." 

"There's  no  trouble  about  that,"  said  the  captain.'  "Be  sure  you 
start  right,  and  you'll  get  along  finely." 

The  lad  told  his  friend  that  the  only  trade  he  knew  anything  about 
was  soap  and  candle  making,  at  which  he  helped  his  father  when  at 
home. 

"Well,"  said  the  old  man,  "let  me  pray  with  you  once  more  and 
give  you  a  little  advice  and  then  I  will  let  you  go."  Then  they  knelt  upon 
♦•he  tow-path  and  the  old  man  prayed  fervently  for  William  and  then 
gave  him  the  following  advice: 

"Some  one  will  soon  be  the  leading  soap  maker  in  New  York.  It 
can  be  you  as  well  as  any  one.  I  hope  it  may  be.  Be  a  good  man ; 
give  your  heart  to  Christ;  give  to  the  Lord  what  belongs  to  Him  of  every 


16  REPORT    ON    SYSTEMATIC    BENEFICENCE 

dollar  you  earn ;  make  an  honest  soap ;  give  a  full  pound :  and  I  am 
certain  you  will  yet  be  a  rich  and  good  man.  " 

Arriving  in  the  great  city,  homeless  and  friendless,  he  remembered 
these  parting  words  of  advice.  He  was  led  through  this  to  give  himself 
to  Christ  and  unite  with  the  church.  The  first  dollar  he  made  brought  up 
Ihe  question  of  the  old  captain.  He  looked  in  the  Bible  and  found  the 
Jews  were  required  to  give  one-tenth,  "li  the  Lord  will  take  one-tenth, 
I  will  give  that,"  he  said ;  and  so  he  did.  It  became  his  practice  through 
a  long  life.     Ten  cents  of  every  dollar  was  "holy  unto  the  Lord." 

After  a  few  years  William  became  a  partner  in  the  business,  and, 
after  a  few  more  years,  the  sole  owner.  He  was  blessed  wonderfully. 
He  then  gave  two-  tenths.  He  became  richer  still,  and  gave  three-tenths, 
<.nd  afterwards  five-tenths.  He  then  educated  his  family,  settled  all  his 
pains  for  life,  and  told  the  Lord  he  would  give  him  all  his  income.  This 
is  the  true  story  of  Mr.  Colgate,  who  gave  millions  to  the  Lord's  cause 
and  whose  name  will  never  die. 

GIVING  THAT  DOES  NOT  IMPOVERISH. 
A  Canadian  preacher  tells  of  two  brothers  who  went  into  business 
on  a  small  scale.  As  Christian  men  ought  to  do,  they  took  God  into  their 
firm  and  promised  him  a  fixed  percentage  of  all  profits.  The  first  year 
they  were  enabled  to  give  God  a  good  amount  of  money.  The  second,  year 
saw  the  Lord's  share  still  larger.  It  kept  on  increasing  until  in  the  fourth 
giving  too  much  and  cut  the  Lord's  percentage  in  two.  The  following 
year  they  saw  a  great  decrease  in  business  and  before  six  months  of  the 
ensuing  year  they  came  to  the  verge  of  bankruptcy.  One  day  these 
brothers  locked  themselves  in  their  office  to  talk  matters  over.  They 
.-aw  that  they  had  never  prospered  since  they  began  to  rob  God.  They 
decided  that  the  first  claim  upon  their  business  would  be  that  they  owed 
him.  On  their  knees  they  sought  and  found  forgiveness.  Prosperity  once 
more  smiled  upon  them.  After  a  few  years  they  forgot  the  lesson  of  the 
past  and  actually  cut  the  Lord's  portion  in  two  again.  Similar  results 
followed ;  again  they  made  another  start  and  God  has  prospered  them 
ever  since.     With  these  men  it  was  pay  and  prosper. 

SOME  BLESSINGS  TO  A  CHURCH 

Some  of  the  blessings  which  came  to  a  congregation  that  made  use  of 
'ht  tithe  system. 

First — Unusual  peace,  harmony  and  activity. 

Second — The  disappearance  of  all  secular  methods  for  gain  in  order 
o  carry  on  the  work  of  the  Church,  and  the  absence  of  oft-recurring 
treasury  deficits. 

Third — The  almost  universal  thrift  of  our  members,  either  temporally 
or  spiritually,  or  both. 

Fourth — The  very  evident  good  results  attending  the  preaching  of 
the  Word  by  our  pastor.  Among  these,  the  wide  distribution  of  his  able 
addresses  on  the  tithe  by  other  denominations  as  well  as  our  own,  result- 
ing in  a  general  awakening  upon  this  subject;  likewise  the  certain  fruits 
of  his  zealous  work  in  the  cause  of  morality  and  temperance  in  our  city. 

Fifth — The  appropriations  for  benevolences  and  charities,  which  have 


REPORT    ON    SYSTEMATIC    BENEFICENCE  17 

increased  yearly,  and  are  now  more  than  doubled,  besides  the  payment  oi 
$2,000  on  the  building  debt. 

Sixth — The  missionary  spirit,  as  evidenced  by  the  faithful  work  of 
devoted  members. 

Seventh — The  organization  of  the  Men's  Bible  Class  of  nearly  100 
business  men. 

Eighth — The  reception  of  scores  of  persons  into  the  Church  upon 
profession  and  renewal  of  their  faith  in  Christ  year  by  year,  while  others 
have  gone  out  from  us  into  active  fields  of  Christian  usefulness. 

Ninth — The  favorable  standing  of  our  Church  among  her  sister 
churches,  largely  due  to  her  faithfulness  to  the  Word  and  unbiased  stand 
for  civic  purity. 

Tenth — Last,  but  not  least,  virtue  has  prev.iiled  among  us,  and  scandal 
and  shame  have  not  humbled  us ;  our  children  have  in  great  numbers 
graduated  from  the  Sunday  School  into  active  church  membership,  while 
interest  in  our  prayer-meetings  and  spiritual  things  has  been  earnestly 
maintained. 

SCRIPTURAL  AND  INTELLIGENT  GIVING. 

The  magnificent  possibilities  which  are  open  to  God's  people  for  the 
extension  of  His  work  and  in  winning  this  world  for  Christ — if  they 
would  only  consecrate  to  Him  a  reasonable  part  of  their  income — are  indi- 
cated by  the  tables  below.  Study  them  earnestly  and  prayerfully,  then  be 
inspired  to  act. 

THE  INDIVIDUAL. 

Find  your  income  in  the  first  column  of  the  table  below,  then  follow 
to  the  right  for  your  proportion  under  various  heading?.  The  percentage 
to  be  given  to  the  various  lines  of  work  included  in  the  36  per  cent,  for 
outside  beneficence — Foreign  Missions,  Home  Missions,  Bible  Cause,  etc. — 
will  doubtless  be  arranged  by  your  church,  but  every  Christian  is  urged 
to  study  for  himself  the  respective  claims  of  the  various  subjects.

V.     BIBLE  STUDY  ON  THE  STEWARDSHIP  OF  MONEY 

The  spread  of  the  gospel,  the  highest  development  of  Christian  char- 
acter, and  the  believer's  greatest  usefulness,  depend  so  much  on  the 
knowledge  and  practice  of  the  principles  of  Christian  Stewardship  that 
scarcely  anything  can  be  more  important  than  a  study  of  them.  Christians 
are  stewards  or  trustees  of  the  gospel  for  the  good  of  the  world.  1  Cor. 
4.  1,2;  9.  17  (R.  V.)  ;  1  Pet.  4.  10. 

Everything  in  the  believer's  life  is  to  be  considered  as  a  trust  related 
to  this  trusteeship  or  stewardship.  In  the  following  eight  lines  of  teach- 
ing the  aim  is  to  present  some  phases  of  the  subject  as  it  affects  wealth. 

1.    GOD  IS  THE  ABSOLUTE  OWNER  OF  ALL  THINGS. 

No  man  is  an  absolute  owner  of  anything.  God  alone  is  the  absolute 
Proprietor  of  all  things.  Psa.  24.  1;  50.  10-12;  Hag.  2.  8.  God  allows 
men  to  use  His  possessions,  but  He  never  surrenders  His  ownership.  A 
full  acknowledgement  of  the  divine  ownership  of  property  should  be 
made  when  we  bring  offerings,  and  at  all  times.  1  Chron.  29.  11-14.  Since 
God  is  the  absolute  owner  we  cannot  be  more  than  stewards.  Our  relation 
to  Him  is  fiduciary.     Luke  19.  12-21. 

2.  WE  ARE  DEPENDENT  UPON  GOD  FOR  WHAT  WE  OBTAIN. 
Deut.  8.  18.  Physical  strength,  mental  abilities,  wage  earning  and  busi- 
ness opportunities  are  all  God-given.  The  producing  forces  in  nature,  the 
minerals  and  treasures  of  the  earth,  were  all  created  by  God.  Eccl.  5.  19; 
Jas.  1.  17.  No  one  has  any  right  to  boast  that  he  has  become  rich  through 
his  own  powers.  All  that  we  have  comes  from  God.  Acts  14.  17;  17.  24, 
25;  1  Cor.  4.  7.     Men  forget  this.     Dan.  4.  30,  31. 

3.  THE  ACCUMULATION  OF  MONEY  FOR  ITS  OWN  SAKE  IS 

A  GREAT  EVIL. 
1  Tim.  6.  9,  10.     When  wealth  increases  men  are  exposed  to  the  perils 
of   pride,  luxuriousness,  selfishness,  and  many  other  hurtful  lusts.    The 


REPORT    ON    SYSTEMATIC    BENEFICENCE  19 

increase  of  riches  hinders  men  from  salvation.  Matt.  13.  22;  19.  21,  22; 
Mark  10.  25.  Many  a  man's  money,  or  method  of  money  making,  is 
standing  between  his  soul  and  Christ. 

Abundance  of  riches  does  not  satisfy.  Eccl.  5.  10:  2.  8-11.  The 
uncertainty  of  earthly  riches  should  keep  men  from  setting  their  affections 
on  them.  Prov.  23.  4,  5;  1  Tim.  6.  17.  If  riches  are  not  taken  away  from 
men  they  are  taken  away  from  their  riches.  Psa.  49.  16,  17 ;  1  Tim.  6,  7. 
These  facts  should  constrain  men  while  they  live  to  administer  their 
riches  faithfully  as  stewards  of  God. 

4.  WEALTH  IS  TO  BE  ADMINISTERED  FOR  GOD'S  GLORY. 
The  faithful  steward  does  not  use  his  trust  for  himself,  but  for  the 
owner.  To  do  otherwise  is  robbery.  Mai.  3.  8.  Our  ideal  in  all  uses  of 
money  is  clear.  Prov.  3.  9.  This  applies  to  getting  and  saving  and  spend- 
ing as  Well  as  to  giving.  1  Cor.  6.  20.  Money  represents  partly  the  expen- 
diture of  physical  strength.  As  we  are  to  glorify  God  in  our  bodies  so 
we  are  to  glorify  God  in  that  which  represents  bodily  and  mental  strength. 
1  Tim.  6.  17-19. 

5.    THE  WITHHOLDING  OF  OFFERINGS  FROM  GOD  IS  SINFUL 
AND  RUINOUS. 

Mai.  3.  8,  9;  Lu.  12.  16-21.  He  who  makes  no  returns  to  God  as  a 
steward  robs  Him  and  is  sometimes  dispossessed  therefor.  Study  Mark 
12.  1-9.     It  does  not  pay  to  be  stingy.     Selfishness  is  a  blighting  sin.     Hag. 

I.  9.  Prov.  11.  24;  13.  7.  Be  careful  not  to  offer  God  the  poorest  instead 
of  the  best.     Mai.  1.  7,  8,  13. 

6.     SCRIPTURAL  GIVING  MUST  BE  SYSTEMATIC  AND 
PROPORTIONATE. 

Many  Christians  have  no  system  in  their  giving.  "As  God  hath  pros- 
pered him"  points  clearly  to  proportionate  giving.  1  Cor.  16.  2.  This  lay- 
ing by  is  the  only  kind  commended  and  commanded  in  the  New  Testament. 
The  tenth  is  a  Scriptural  proportion.  Lev.  27.  30.  Num.  18.  24.  Neh.  13. 
12.  Tithing  was  commended  by  Christ.  Matt.  23.  23.  Many  should 
undoubtedly  give  more,  none  should  give  less.  Giving  is  a  spiritual  grace, 
to  which  Christ's  example  should  give  character.  2  Cor.  8.  7.  9.  We 
should  give  according  to  the  teachings  of  Deut.  16.  17;  2  Cor.' 9.  7.  Lay- 
ing up  treasure  in  heaven  is  more  important  than  laying  up  treasures  on 
earth.     Matt.  6.  19,  20. 

7.    RICH  BLESSINGS  ARE  PROMISED  TO  FAITHFUL 
STEWARDS. 

Mai.  3.  10;  Matt.  25.  20,  21;  2  Cor.  9.  6.  Spiritual  blessings  depend 
on  the  right  use  of  money.  Many  make  giving  depend  upon  the  coming 
of  spiritual  blessings,  but  God  puts  it  the  other  way  about.     Prov.  3.  9,  10; 

II.  25;  Lu.  6.  38.  God  has  fulfilled  these  promises  many  times.  Only 
blessing  can  come  from  using  money  scripturally.  We  prepare  a  heavenly 
welcome,  Lu.  16.  9;  exhibit  righteous  fidelity,  Lu.  16.  10;  receive  true 
riches,  Lu.  16.  11;  not  as  trustees  but  as  owners,  Lu.  16.  12;  and  demon- 
strate our  loyalty  to  God,  Lu.  16.  13. 

— The  Christian  Steward. 


20  REPORT   ON    SYSTEMATIC    BENEFICENCE 

V.  RECOMMENDATIONS 

1.  We  would  recommend  in  the  interests  of  the  forward 
movement  of  Christian  giving  and  Uving  that  there  be  organized 
in  all  of  our  churches  wherever  advisable  an  association  o^ 
"Christian  Stewards."  Anyone  can  be  enrolled  as  a  Christian 
Steward  who  is  willing  to  sign  the  following  statement : 

"In  grateful  acknowledgement  of  the  truth  that  I  am  not  my  own, 
having  been  redeemed  by  the  precious  blood  of  Christ,  and  in  recognition 
of  the  sacred  obligations  of  Christian  Stewardship,  I  desire  to  be  enrolled 
in  the  Association  of  Christian  Stewards.  I  agree  to  set  apart  not  less 
than  one-tenth  of  my  income,  so  far  as  I  am  able  to  reckon  it,  to  be  paid 
weekly  and  used  as  an  enlightened  conscience  and  the  providence  of  God 
may  direct  in  maintaining  and  extending  Christ's  kingdom." 

2.  We  would  recommend  that  wherever  it  may  not  seem  ad- 
visable at  present  to  form  the  above  Association,  that  all  those 
who  are  willing  to  give  a  definite  proportion  of  their  income  for 
the  Lord's  work  should  be  organized  into  Associations  of  System- 
atic and  Proportionate  Givers. 

3.  We  recommend  that  all  Committees  on  Systematic  Bene- 
ficence in  Presbyteries  and  Synods  give  careful  attention  to  the 
two  plans  above  mentioned,  and  wherever  practicable,  organize 
the  churches  within  their  bounds  on  such  plans  as  in  their  judg- 
ment may  be  best  fitted  to  local  conditions. 

4.  We  recommend  that  in  addition  to  the  literature  on  Sys- 
tematic Beneficence  your  Committee  is  already  sending  out,  the 
Committee  be  authorized  to  furnish  literature  on  the  subject  of 
the  tithe  for  general  distribution. 

5.  We  recommend  that,  in  view  of  the  growing  importance  of 
this  subject,  pastors  be  earnestly  urged  to  preach  frequently  on 
this  subject,  and  that  the  matter  be  discussed  by  church  sessions 
and  Presbyteries  at  their  meetings. 

6.  In  view  of  the  grave  responsibility  resting  upon  the  repre- 
sentatives of  our  various  Church  Agencies  in  gathering  benevo- 
lent funds,  we  recommend  that  in  their  efforts  they  appeal  to  those 
high  motives  which  grip  the  soul  and  have  a  tendency  to  create 
streams  of  beneficence. 

All  of  which  is  respectfully  submitted. 
In  the  behalf  of  the  Committee, 

DAVID  G.  WYLIE,  Chairman 
W.  H.  HUBBARD,  Secretary. 


Report  of  the  Standing  Committee  on  Systematic  Beneficence. 

The  Standing  Committee  on  Benevolence,  through  its  Chair- 
man, Rev.  Herbert  A.  Manchester,  presented  its  report,  which 
was  adopted,  including  the  adoption  of  Recommendations  13a 
and  15  of  the  report  on  Administrative  Agencies.  The  report  is 
as  follows : 

The  subject  of  Benevolence  has  already  been  presented  to  the 
Assembly  in  the  appeals  of  the  Boards,  in  resolutions  adopted 
and  is  also  before  the  commissioners  in  the  printed  Report  of 
the  Committee  on  Systematic  Beneficence.  Important  as  the 
matter  is  it  is  unnecessary  for  us  to  attempt  to  add  to  these  pre- 
sentations. The  work  of  the  Committee  on  Systematic  Benefi- 
cence has  been  so  valuable  and  the  need  of  such  work  in  the 
future  is  so  great  that  we  urge  its  continuation  either  by  the  Ex- 
ecutive Commission  assuming  all  the  functions  and  work  of  the 
Committee  on  Systematic  Beneficence  or  by  the  reappointment  of 
that  Committee. 

We  emphasize  the  statements  in  the  Report  on  Systematic 
Beneficence  on  the  oneness  of  church  work.  The  support  of  the 
individual  church  is  necessary  to  the  further  support  of  the 
missionary  and  benevolent  work  of  the  whole  Church.  The  local 
church  must  be  sustained  and  gifts  made  to  it  are  as  truly  benevo- 
lent as  those  given  to  other  causes. 

We  also  emphasize  the  thought  of  the  offering  made  in  the 
churches  as  "a  solemn  act  of  worship  to  Almighty  God."  Too 
often  this  part  of  a  religious  service  is  conducted  in  a  way  to 
show  that  it  is,  as  a  religious  writer  says,  "a  lost  act  of  worship." 
"Men  should  be  taught  that  giving  to  the  Lord  is  an  essential 
part  of  public  worship,  quite  as  essential  as  singing  or  prayer" 
and  to  be  performed  as  sincerely  and  devoutly.  The  ofiPerings 
ought  indeed  to  be,  as  they  are  sometimes  called,  "the  devotions 
of  the  people." 

We  believe  that  a  wise  and  persistent  effort  should  be  made  to 
train  our  people  and  to  instruct  the  children  in  the  duties  of 
giving.  We  think  this  might  well  have  place  in  the  scheme  of 
religious  education  to  be  devised.  We  do  not  wisK  to  recommend 
one  method  of  giving,  to  the  exclusion  of  others ;  we  are  also 
aware  of  objections  urged  against  tithing,  yet  other  methods  not 
having  been  shown  to  be  effective  or  sufficient,  and  tithing  having 


22  REPORT  ON  SYSTEMATIC  :BENEFICENCE 

been  richly  blessed  and  approved  in  trial,  we  believe  that  an  effort 
might  well  be  made  to  bring  this  to  the  attention  of  all  the  people 
of  our  churches.  The  report  on  Systematic  Beneficence  de- 
scribes twenty-five  methods  in  use  to  secure  the  gifts  of  congrega- 
tions with  wisdom  and  generosity,  and  these  will  be  found  full 
of  helpful  suggestions. 

We  offer  these  recommendations  : 

1.  Resolved,  That  the  General  Assembly  emphatically  affirm 
the  principle  of  systematic  and  proportionate  giving,  and  that  the 
Executive  Commission  be  instructed  to  secure,  as  far  as  possible, 
the  adoption  by  individuals  in  the  churches,  of  this  principle  of 
giving  to  the  Lord's  work  a  definite  proportion  of  their  income. 

2.  Resolved,  That  the  Executive  Commission  be  authorized 
to  provide  literature  in  regard  to  the  tithe  and  to  bring  this 
matter  to  the  attention  of  the  churches. 

3.  Resolved,  That  the  subject  of  Systematic  Beneficence  be 
given  a  prominent  place  in  public  discussion  at  meetings  of  Pres- 
byteries and  wherever  practicable ;  that  Sessions  be  advised  to 
consider  earnestly  whether  they  may  not  more  effectually  culti- 
vate this  grace  in  the  churches;  and  that  Pastors  present  it 
faithfully  to  their  congregations,  both  inculcating  the  duty  of 
systematic  and  proportionate  giving  and  endeavoring  to  secure 
at  once  increased  gifts  to  benevolent  work.

CHURCH  OF  THE  LIVING  GOD! 

In  vaifi  thy  foes  make  of  thee 
In  impious  mirth  their  latighing-stock; 
Condetnn  thy  strength,  thy  radiant  beauty  mock! 
I?i  vain  their  threats  and  impotent  their  bloivs, 
Satan's  assault,  hell's  agonizing  throes, 
For  thou  art  built  upon  the  Eternal  Rock, 
Nor  fearest  the  thunder-storm,  the  earthquake  shock. 
And  nothing  shall  disturb  thy  calm  repose. 
All  human  combinations  change  and  die, 
Whatever  their  origin,  fortn,  design; 
But  firmer  than  the  pillars  of  the  sky. 
Thou  standest  ever  by  a  power  divine! 
Thou  art  gifted  with  immortality  and  can' st  not  perish, 
God's  own  life  is  thine!

OUTLINE  OF  THE  YEAR'S  WORK. 


1.  Nearly  800  meetings  have  been  held  by  our  representatives  in  29 
states  and  territories.  Besides  assisting  in  many  no-license  campaigns, 
addresses  were  delivered  before  Synods,  Presbyteries,  Ministerial  Associa- 
tions, Theological  Seminaries,  Universities,  Colleges,  High  Schools,  Tem- 
perance Institutes,  Sunday-school  Conventions,  Y.  M.  C.  A.'s,  Chautau- 
quas,  Presbyterian  Churches  and  Sunday-schools. 

2.  The  equivalent  of  more  than  sixteen  millions  (16,000,000)  pages 
of  literature  in  six  languages,  was  supplied  to  the  institutions  mentioned 
in  paragraph  one.  This  literature  went  into  every  state  and  territory  in 
the  Union,  to  South  Africa,  Central  and  South  America,  Canada,  Corea, 
India,  Ireland,  Scotland,  England,  Alaska,  the  Philippines,  Cuba,  Porto 
Rico,  Ceylon,  Mexico,  East  and  West  Indies,  Russia  and  Bulgaria.  Large 
quantities  were  supplied  in  the  temperance  campaigns  in  Miss.,  Tenn., 
111.,  la.,  Nebr.,  Pa.,  Md.,  W.  Va.,  N.  J.,  Ohio,  Ind.,  N.  Y.,  Fla.,  Tex., 
Ark.,  Wash.,  Ore.,  Calif,  and  Ky. 

3.  Besides  supplying  literature  free  to  about  4,500  Presbyterian  orga- 
nizations we  have  furnished  it  at  actual  cost  to  applicants  in  almost  every 
sister  Church  in  the  United  States,  Canada,  and  some  European  countries. 

4.  A  column  has  been  supplied  each  week  in  some  of  our  Presbyterian 
papers,  a  supplemental  lesson  has  been  prepared  for  each  quarterly  tem- 
perance lesson  in  the  Westminster  Teacher  and  Senior  Quarterly.  Some 
phase  of  the  question  has  been  presented  in  each  issue  of  The  Assembly 
Herald.  Several  new  tracts  have  been  issued  and  nearly  all  of  the  stand- 
ard ones  reprinted. 

5.  More  than  thirty  thousand  (30,000)  personal  communications  have 
been  sent  out,  including  a  letter  to  every  Sunday-school  superintendent 
in  the  entire  denomination,  so  far  as  we  had  their  names  and  addresses. 
Many  thousands  of  requests  for  information  have  come  from  pastors, 
elders,  Sunday-school  Teachers,  Christian  Endeavor  officers,  Missionary 
Societies  and  other  interested  individuals. 

6.  A  temperance  programme,  including  responsive  readings  and 
music,  with  recitations  accompanying,  prepared  by  the  Committee,  was 
used  by  thousands  of  our  Sabbath-schools.  More  than  fifty  thousand 
(50,000)  pledge-cards  were  ordered  by  Sunday-school  superintendents  and 
teachers. 

7.  The  Temperance  deliverances  of  the  Assembly  have  been  sup- 
pHed  to  thousands  of  our  churches.  Communication  has  been  had  with 
nearly  every  denomination  in  the  United  States,  resulting  in  the  Second 
Inter-Church  Temperance  Council  in  Philadelphia,  Pa.  December  1-2. 

8.  Two  Associate  Secretaries  and  one  lecturer  on  Scientific  Tem- 
perance have  been  employed  during  the  entire  year  and  two  other  field 
workers  for  a  part  of  the  year.  These,  with  the  stenographer,  are  the 
only  persons  drawing  salary,  the  Corresponding  Secretary  accepting  a 
small  honorarium  and  the  Treasurer  nothing,  though  the  former  devotes 
all  of  his  time  and  the  latter  a  large  portion  of  his  time  to  the  work. 

9.  We  began  the  publication  of  "The  Amethyst"  in  September  as  the 
official  organ  of  the  Committee.  The  circulation  is  already  20,000  and 
increasing  rapidly. 

10.  The  receipts  for  the  year  have  been  $20,540.86.  Thus  at  small 
expense  and  with  a  limited  number  of  workers  the  Assembly's  Committee 
has  served  a  denomination  numbering  more  than  one  million  three  hun- 
dred thousand  communicants,  with  fully  twice  as  many  adherents  and 
reaching  into  almost  every  part  of  the  wQrl4.  . 


Tl/'ITH  humble  acknowledgment  of  the  continued  favor  of  the 
great  Head  of  the  Church,    the  Permanent  Committee  on 
Temperance  herewith  respectfully  submits  itsTwenty-eighth  An- 
nual Report  to  the  General  Assembly. 

So  far  as  such  matters  can  be  expressed  in  concrete  terms, 
the  details  of  the  year's  work  are  given  in  the  preceeding  Out- 
line; but  no  mathematics  can  show  the  thought,  the  labor  and 
the  prayer  that  constitute  the  vital  force  which  makes  results 
possible. 

Office  Work. 

The  large  regular  correspondence,  the  heavy  demand  for 
literature, the  publication  of  a  paper, the  preparation  and  revision 
of  tracts,  furnishing"  special  information  to  our  people  and  sup- 
plying articles  to  the  religious  and  secular  press,  have  been  cared 
for  by  the  Corresponding  Secretary,  the  Chairman  and  the  As- 
sociate Secretaries, with  the  help  of  a  stenographer  and  a  limited 
amount  of  extra  clerical  assistance.  The  demand,  however,  is 
growing  so  rapidly  that  additional  help  will  be  required  the 
coming  year. 

Field  Work. 

Dr.  Fulton,  Miss  Brehm  and  Prof.  Scanlon  have  been  with 
us  as  in  former  years.  Dr.  Worrell  gave  us  a  part  of  his  time 
until  the  ist  of  March  and  Rev.  Samuel  I.  Lindsay  all  of  his 
time  for  six  months,  beginning  September  ist. 

Our  representatives  have  labored  in  some  of  the  southern 
states  and  in  almost  all  of  the  northern  states  but  especially  in 
Illinois,  Indiana,  Ohio,  W.  Virginia,  Pennsylvania,  New  York, 
New  Jersey,  Missouri  and  California.  Miss  Brehm  has  spent 
several  months  in  the  latter  state  and  from  there  as  elsewhere 
come  the  strongest  commendations  of  her  and  her  work. 

Finances. 

Owing  to  the  general  financial  depression,  the  additional 
expense  of  starting  a  paper  and  the  rapidly  increasing  demands 
of  the  work,  we  are  obliged,  for  the  first  time  in  nearly  a  quarter 
of  a  century,  to  report  a  deficit,  though  the  interest  of  the 
Church  is  greater  and  th«  receipts  larger  than  ever  before. 

When  it  was  seen  that  there  would  be  a  deficit,  unless 
receipts  were  larger  than  w«  had  reason  to  expect,  with  much 
regret  we  gave  up  the  services,  on  March  ist  of  Dr. E.R.Worrell 
and  Rev.  Samuel  I.  Lindsay,  the  former  stationed  in  Chicago 
and  the  latter  in  St.  Louis.  In  each  of  these  places  we  need  a 
representative  and  should  have  one  at  the  earliest  practical  date.

The  Amethyst. 

For  some  years  the  desirability  was  apparent  of  a  paper  to 
instruct  and  inspire  our  people  on  the  subject  of  temperance;  to 
furnish  reliable,  up-to-date  material  for  pastors,  Sunday-school 
teachers  and  other  workers;  to  express  the  mind  and  uphold  the 
standard  of  the  Church  on  this  subject  and  to  serve  as  a  medium 
of  communication  between  the  Committee  and  those  whom  it 
represents . 

To  meet  this  need  the  Committee  began  the  publication  of 
The  Aitiethyst  in  September  and  the  fact  that  already  it  has 
attained  a  circulation  of  more  than  20,000,  shows  that  it  meets  a 
demand.  It  is  published  monthly  at  25c  per  year  and  Church 
contributions  are  allowed  to  apply  as  subscriptions,  when  the 
person  sending  the  remittance  so  requests.  The  Amethyst  promises 
to  be  a  most  important  and  influential  factor  in  the  warfare  which 
our  Church  is  waging  against  intemperance  and  the  liquor  traffic. 

The  Inter-Church  Temperance  Council. 

In  harmony  with  the  action  of  our  General  Assembly  of  1907 
and  previous  Assemblies,  on  December  ist  and  2nd,  your  Per- 
manent Committee  joined  with  the  official  representatives  of  the 
Baptist, Congregational,  Disciples  of  Christ,  Evangelical  Luthe- 
ran,Methodist  Episcopal  and  United  Presbyterian  Churches  in 
holding  the  second  session  of  The  Inter-Church  Temperance 
Council  in  Philadelphia, Pa.  The  Basis  of  Agreement, previously 
ratified  by  our  Assembly  was  again  adopted  by  the  Temperance 
Council  and,  according  to  the  instruction  of  our  General  As- 
sembly, presented  to  the  Federal  Council  of  the  Churches  of 
Christ  in  America.  The  Federal  Council  having  adopted  a 
general  rule  not  to  establish  any  departments  of  moral  or  social 
reform,  passed  the  following  resolutions: 

1.  "Resolved,  That  in  the  judgment  of  the  Council  it  is  not  best  to 
establish  departments  of  work  such  as  are  suggested  in  the  paper  from  the 
Inter-Church  Conference." 

2.  "Resolved,  That  the  Federal  Council  of  the  Churchs  of  Christ  in 
America  rejoices  in  the  fact  that  so  many  of  the  denominations  have  ap- 
pointed official  temperance  agencies,  approves  of  their  co-operation  one 
with  another,  and  express  the  hope  that  all  other  bodies  represented  in 
this  Federal  Council  may  take  such  action  as  to  them  may  seem  wise  in 
support  of  temperance  reform." 

The  Temperance  Council,  anticipating  this  action,  had  com- 
pleted its  organization,  provisionall5s  and  elected  its  officers, 
with  the  understanding  that  the  organization  should  be  perma- 
nent, in  case  the  Federal  Council  did  not  establish  a  correspond- 
ing department.  No  such  department  being  formed  by  the  Federal 
Council,  the  organization  of  the  Temperance  Council  therefore 
stands. 

Legislation. 

Your  Committee  supported  the  most  important  National 
Temperance  Legislation  enacted  during  the  past  year  which  was 
the  passage  by  Congress  of  the  Knox  Bill.  This  prohibits  ex- 
press companies  and  other  common  carriers  from  acting  as  agents 


for  liquor  dealers;  from  delivering  liquor  to  fictitious  consignees 
and  from  shipping  packages  containing  liquor  from  one  state  to 
another,  unless  such  package  is  plainly  labelled  on  the  outside 
cover  as  to  its  contents  and  the  quantity  contained  therein. 

This  is  not  all  that  was  asked  for  and  is  needed.  It  does  not 
respect  the  police  power  of  prohibition  states  and  permits  liquor 
shipments,  with  consequent  nullification  of  prohibitory  laws  to 
continue,  but  it  is  an  advance  step  and  will  be  helpful. 

Another  bill  supported  by  your  Committee  was  introduced  in 
Congress  providing  for  the  establishment  of  a  Commission  to 
investigate  the  relation  of  intemperance  and  the  liquor  traffic  to 
the  moral,  social,  industrial  and  economic  welfare, but  failed  of 
passage,  though  supported  by  all  of  the  leaders  of  temperance 
in  both  Houses  of  Congress  and  by  practically  all  the  leading 
temperance  organizations. 

This  measure  should  receive  the  support  of  all  temperance 
people  since  it  would  give  us  authoritative  data  which  no  temper- 
ance organization  has  either  the  means  or  the  authority  to  secure. 
Similar  investigations  have  been  made  both  by  England  and 
Canada  and  have  proved  helpful  to  the  temperance  reform. 

Your  Committee,  as  in  former  years,  has  used  its  influence 
with  the  National  Government  for  the  protection  of  the  Indians 
against  the  liquor  traffic  and  is  gratified  to  report  that  the 
efforts  of  Mr.  William  E.  Johnson,  special  Commissioner  ap- 
pointed by  the  Government  for  this  work,  have  resulted  in  the 
conviction  of  a  large  number  of  the  violators  of  the  law.  Our 
Church  conducts  an  extensive  mission  work  among  the  Indians 
and  it  is  therefore  proper  that  she  should  strive  to  prevent  the 
neutralization  of  her  efforts  in  behalf  of  these  people. 

In  response  to  a  request  from  the  Evangelical  Association 
of  Hawaii,  your  Committee  memorialized  the  President  and  both 
Houses  of  Congress  for  the  better  protection  of  the  people  of 
those  islands  against  the  ravages  of  the  liquor  traffic. 

The  March  Of  Progress. 

This  Committee  in  cooperation  with  other  agencies  has 
achieved  the  following  results: 

State-wide  prohibition  went  into  effect  in  Alabama,  Missis- 
sippi and  North  Carolina,  during  the  year  and  will  become  oper- 
ative in  Tennessee  July  ist.  Maine,  Kansas,  North  Dakota, 
Oklahoma  and  Georgia  previously  had  outlawed  the  traffic, 
making  nine  prohibition  states  up-to-date. 

Operating  under  the  county  unit  the  legalized  traffic  has  been 
abolished  in  62  of  the  88  counties  in  Ohio,  in  62of  the  92  coun- 
ties in  Indiana,  and  in  31  counties  in  Michigan.  Considerable 
areas  in  other  states  have  been  gained  under  various  provisions. 
Vigorous  campaigns  have  been  waged  in  Texas,  Arkansas,  Mis- 
souri, Kentucky,  West  Virginia,  Nebraska,  Minnesota,  Idaho 
and  other  states. 

It  is  estimated  that  more  than  300,000  square  miles  have 
been  added  to  the  no-license  territory  of  the  United  States  in  the 


past  twelve  months  and  that  more  than  10,000  saloons  have  been 
abolished.  In  New  York,  New  Jersey,  Pennsylvania,  Montana, 
Wyoming,  Nevada,  Utah,  Arizona  and  New  Mexico  little  pro- 
gress of  a  tangible  character  has  been  noted. 

The  details  for  each  state  and  territory  and  many  other 
kindred  subjects  may  be  found  in  the  Year  Book  which  accom- 
panies this  report. 

Constructive  Policy  of  the  Committee. 

The  Presbyterian  Church  is  responsible  for  her  own  tem- 
perance work  according  to  her  own  principles  and  methods,  and 
ought  not  to  neglect  it.  The  temperance  reform  has  suffered, 
been  delayed,  and  lost  caste  because  the  Church  has  not  lived 
up  to  her  duty.  Therefore  we  propose  a  more  vigorous  campaign 
than  heretofore  conducted. 

/.  Ediuafion. 
Education  is  fundamental  in  this  reform.  No  matter  what 
the  laws  of  states  or  communities,  the  permanence  of  this  move- 
ment depends  upon  personal  abstinence  and  intelligent  conviction 
as  to  biblical,  economic,  scientific  and  sociological  principles  of 
temperance  reform. 

This  educational  work  should  be  conducted: 
(i)  By  the  pastor.  He  is  the  natural  leader  and  educator 
of  his  people  on  this  reform.  Our  suggestion  is  that  the  pastors 
in  the  several  presbyteries  make  special  preparation  on  particular 
phases  of  this  subject  and  then  arrange  a  series  of  pulpit  exchan- 
ges so  as  to  cover  the  whole  question. 

(2)  By  printers  ink.  The  liquor  traffic  is  flooding  the  coun- 
try with  misrepresentations  and  trying  to  stem  the  tide  against 
their  business;  the  Church  must  publish  the  facts,  turn  on  the 
light  and  proclaim  the  truth.  For  this  purpose  we  have  establish- 
ed The  AmetJiyst  as  our  educational  monthly  which  we  wish 
to  have  go  into  every  Presbyterian  home.  Our  tract  literature 
will  be  improved  and  furnished  to  churches  free  as  heretofore. 

(3)  By  Sunday-schools  and  young  people's  societies.  Every 
effort  should  be  made  to  stimulate  the  interest  in  the  quarterly 
temperance  topic  and  thus  properly  instruct  and  secure  the  co- 
operation of  the  rising  generation.  In  this  connection  we  wish  to 
be  understood  as  lending  the  fullest  encouagement  to  temper- 
ance instruction  in  public  schools,  and  deprecate  any  effort  to 
repeal  or  weaken  such  laws. 

(4)  By  the  encouragement  of  total  abstinence  movements. 
Temperance  reform  needs  to  be  buttressed  on  personal  absti- 
nence. The  strategic  movement  among  young  people  at  present 
is  a  pledge-signing  campaign. 

(5)  Out  of  door  work.  Open  air  meetings  should  be  fre- 
quently held.  Billboard  posters,  temperance  streamers  and 
banners  are  effective.  The  stereopticon  can  be  used  to  fine 
advantage. 


//.  Legislation. 

(i)  The  final  aim  of  the  temperance  reform  is  constitutional 
prohibition  of  the  manufacture  and  sale  of  intoxicating  bever- 
ages. In  some  states  this  has  been  accomplished;  in  others, 
partially  so;  and  in  still  others  little  has  been  attained.  Therefore 
the  immediate  legislative  need  in  the  various  parts  of  our  country 
varies  with  the  condition  of  progress  attained. 

Local  option  has  become  a  recognized  method  of  progress, 
and  we  encourage  this  method  where  it  meets  the  conditions  and 
where  State-wide  Prohibition  is  not  immediately  attainable. 
Careful  study  of  the  practical  operation  of  local  option  has 
convinced  us  that  the  county  unit  in  such  legislation 
produces  the  most  satisfactory  results  and  secures  the  most 
rapid  progress. 

(2)  Synodical  co-operation.  We  desire  the  completest 
harmony  and  co-operation  with  the  various  Synods  in  this  work 
and  propose  the  following  plan:  By  mutual  counsel  of  Presby- 
terial,  Synodical  and  Assembly's  temperance  committees,  each 
Synod  should  take  official  action  as  to  the  legislation  needed 
within  its  boundaries,  make  its  educational  campaign  according- 
ly, and  present  its  official  memorial  to  the  Legislature  by  its 
duly  authorized  temperance  agency. 

(3)  Local  Civic  Federation.  Ordinarily  it  is  unwise  to  ad- 
vocate from  the  pulpit  the  election  or  defeat  of  particular  can- 
didates for  political  office;  but  if  the  churches  have  conducted 
the  educational  campaign  with  diligence,  public  sentiment  may 
be  easily  crystallized  in  local  civic  organizations  which  will  take 
care  of  political  action  and  law-enforcement. 

(4)  Financing  the  work.  Annual  contributions  from  all  our 
churches  would  provide  ample  funds  for  conducting  this  work. 
With  the  pastors  caring  for  the  educational  work  and  arousing 
public  sentiment  many  thousands  of  dollars  will  be  saved  to  the 
Church  each  year. 

(5)  Local  expense.  Where  Synods  or  Presbyteries  determine 
officially  to  co-operate  as  above  indicated,  and  instruct  their 
churches  to  forward  their  temperance  offering  to  the  Assembly's 
Committee,  our  Treasurer  will  hold  a  portion  thereof  not  to 
exceed  25%,  subject  to  the  call  of  such  contributing  agencies  for 
meeting  expense  of  local  work. 

The  Final  Goal. 

While  men  and  women  drink  liquor  and  transmit  to  their 
children  a  predisposition  to  its  use;  while  some  people  ignor- 
antly,  innocently  or  willfully  acquire  an  appetite  for  it;  while  we 
continue  to  regard  intemperance  simply  as  a  sin  or  follyand  not 
also  as  a  contagion  and  a  disease;  while  our  treatment  of  those 
who  are  slaves  to  their  appetite  for  this  drug  is  not  more  intel- 
ligent and  humane;  while  governments,  local,  state  and  national 
encourage  and  protect  the  manufacture  and  sale  of  liquor;  while 


we  suffer  men  to  make  our  laws  who  have  neither  conscience  nor 
courage  on  this  subject;  while  the  Church,  which  was  intended 
to  enshrine  and  perpetuate  the  spirit  and  message  of  the  Master, 
does  not  apply  herself  with  mighty  earnestness  to  this  problem, 
—  so  long  the  final  goal,  which  is  national  prohibition  of  the 
manufacture,  sale,  transportation  and  importation,  will  never  be 
reached.  But  the  Church  will  apply  herself  and  is  already  doing 
so.  For  centuries  she  has  been  sowing  the  seeds  of  fraternity, 
enlightenment  and  righteousness  and  a  harvest  must  come. Then 
"we  will  neither  eat  flesh  nor  drink  wine  nor  anything  whereby 
our  brother  stumbleth  or  is  offended  or  made  weak,"  and 
through  a  consecrated  ballot,  the  noblest  aspirations  of  a  noble 
people  will  be  embodied  in  the  noblest  laws  by  noblest  men.

The  Temperance  Day  program,  consisting  of  music,  recit- 
ations, responsive  readings  and  statistics,  will  be  ready  early  in 
September.  It  is  furnished  free  to  Presbyterian  Sunday-schools 
and  those  who  desire  it  should  order  at  once,  so  that  we  may 
know  how  many  to  print. 

Our  three-colored  temperance  pledge  card  is  attractive  and 
popular.     Write  for  a  sample.

The  Presbyterian  Church  was  the  first  to  place  the  temper- 
ance reform  on  an  equality  with  Missions. 

Do  you  read  the  temperance  notes  in  the  Senior  Westminster 
Quarterly? 

If  the  Church  is  right,  the  saloon  is  wrong.  Do  you  say  so 
—  at  the  ballot  box? 

Religion  requires  right  voting  as  well  as  right  thinking.

Comsumptiou  and  Cost  of  Drink.

The  Bureau  of  Statistics,  in  estimating  (in  gallons)  the  per 
capita  consumption  of  liquors,  seems  to  have  used  about 
87,207,079  as  the  population  of  the  United  States  for  the  year 
ending  June  30,  1908.  The  drink  bill,  therefore,  is  equivalent 
to  $24.. 94  for  every  man,  woman  and  child  in  the  United  States. 
Counting  the  average  of  four  and  a  half  persons  to  every  family, 
which  has  been  found  approximately  correct  (varying  slightly 
in  different  states),  we  find  that  the  amount  of  money  directly 
paid  by  the  people  to  the  liquor  trade  is  $112.23  for  every 
one  of  the  families  in  the  United  States,  there  being  19,379,351 
families  on  the  above  basis.

This  is  not  quite  four  and  a  half  per  cent  less  than  last  year. 

In  the  preceding  year  the  population  seems  to  have  been 
computed  by  the  government  at  about  85,815,715  persons,  being 
about  19,070,159  families.  The  per  capita  cost  of  liquor,  there- 
fore, was  $26.51,  which  would  be  equal  to  $119.30  for  every 
family  last  year. 

Cost  of  the  Average  Saloon. 

In  the  "American  Prohibition  Year  Book  for  1908,"  pages 
54.  and  55,  an  estimate  was  made  based  upon  the  number  of  retail 
liquor-selling  places  in  the  country  which  pay  the  special  tax  to 
the  government,  which  were  placed  in  round  numbers  for  con- 
venience at  250,000,  the  real  number  so  paying  being  254,714  in 
1907.  It  is  still  entirely  safe  to  use  the  same  number,  250,000, 
as  the  saloons,  though  slightly  reduced,  still  show  250,946 
in  1908. 

The  national  liquor  expenditures  being  in  1908  $2, 174, 766,- 
954,  we  find  that  each  one  of  the  250,000  saloons  absorbed 
$8,700  from  the  earnings  of  the  people,  the  drain  being  $23.84 
per  day  for  365  days  in  the  year  for  each  saloon. 

It  was  shown  that  it  would  require  forty  drinkers  of  full 
average  "holding  capacity"  to  consume  the  more  than  400  drinks 
per  day  sold  by  each  average  saloon.  This  puts  ten  millions  of 
our  people  (overwhelmingly  men)  in  the  ranks  of  the  regular 
saloon  patrons.  On  the  average  each  one  of  these  drinkers  ex- 
pended about  60  cents  per  day  for  drink  or  about  $4.20  per  week 
or  $217.47  per  year  out  of  his  earnings,  during  1908.  This  is 
all  waste,  and  worse  than  waste.  For  the  nation  it  means  a  waste 
of  six  millions  of  dollars  everyday  in  the  year!   Fully  one-half  of 


14 

the  families  of  |the  land  are  the  victims  of  this  most   disastrous 
loss. 

The  reader  is  asked  to  bear  these  facts  in  mind,  as  they  are 
referred  to  in  other  parts  of  this  book.  They  have  not  been 
attacked.  They  will  not  be  successfully  controverted.  When 
business  men  at  large  assert  their  own  individuality,  cease 
being  led  by  the  liquor  men,  but  apply  business  auditing 
methods  to  the  liquor  traffic,  they  will  see  this  waste,  and  will 
see  that  six  millions  of  dollars  per  day  are  worth  adding  to  the 
legitimate  trade  of  the  country. 

Alcohol  and  Crime. 

The  School  Physiology  Journal,  published  at  23  Irull  St.,  Boston, 
Mass.  is  one  of  the  most  valuable  publications  in  the  world  on  the  temper- 
once  question.  We  take  the  following  etract  from  it.  —  Ed. 

"The  Massachusetts  Bureau  of  Statistics  showed  that 
"82  per  cent  (of  criminals)  were  in  liquor  at  the  time  of  the 
offence",  and  that  "in  84  per  cent  the  intemperate  habits  of  the 
offenders  led  to  a  condition  which  induced  the  crime",  that  "ex- 
cluding minors,  96  per  cent  were  addicted  to  the  use  of  liquors" 
[***  p.  60].  Chicago  grand  jury  [Report  of  December,  1900], 
stated  that  "at  least  go  percent  of  all  criminal  cases  coming 
directly  before  this  body  have  some  saloon  connection,  direct  or 
indirect."  (***  p.  61.) 

^^  Gambling  and  the  social  evil  are  closely  allied  with  the 
perils  of  drunkenness."  (Com.  of  Fifty.) 

Regarding  the  social  evil.  Dr.  Sullivan  asserts  that  "in 
rather  less  than  50  per  cent  of  cases  either  chronic  alcoholism  or 
simple  drunkenness  is  the  causal  condition."  (     p.  120.) 

Prof.  Hilier  of  Kiel  reported  that  autopsies  on  300  suicide 
showed  that  nearly  50  per  cent  were  alcoholists,  a  minimum 
estimate  since  "the  use  of  alcohol  among  young  suicides  though 
adequate  to  cause  severe  mental  depression,  could  not  have  pro- 
duced sufficient  pathological  changes  in  the  internal  organs  to 
be  observable  in  post-mortem  examinations."  (*  p.  116 — 17.) 

Dr.  W.  C.  Sullivan,  medical  officer  in  His  Majesty's  prison 
service  (England),  shows  that  "in  220  consecutive  observations 
of  attempted  suicide,  the  proportion  due  to  alcoholism  was  78 
per  cent,  the  usual  condition  present  in  four-fifths  of  the  cases 
being    drunkenness      supervening    on     chronic     intoxication." 

(*p.  117.) 

Investigation    by    Dr.    Sullivan    concerning    homicides   and 

aggravated  assaults  showed.  (*p.  119 — 20): 

(i)  "Of  200  male  offenders  convicted  of  murder  or  of  grave 
homicidal  attempts,  79  per  cent  were  of  alcoholic  habits,  and  in 
60  per  cent  the  criminal  acts  was  directly  due  to  alcoholism." 

(2)  "Of  500  cases  of  less  serious  character,  chiefly  aggra- 
vated assaults,  82  percent  were  attributable  to  alcohol."  In 
nearly  all  intoxication  had  attained  a  fair  degree  of  chronicity. 

Abstinence  decreases  crime:  e.  g,,  San  Francisco,  Kansas 
City,  Kansas,  Maine  etc. 


15 

Alcohol  causes  crime  by  producing  physical  deterioration  of 
the  delicate  nerve  elements  of  the  brain  "so  that  is  finest, 
latest  organized,  least  stable  parts  which  subserve  moral  feeling 
and  supreme  will  are  marred."  (**  p.  191.) 

Moral  sense  blunted  or  destroyed  so  that  feeling  of  moral 
responsibility  is  lost.  (**  p.  195.) 

Reasoning  faculties  befogged  so  that  consequences  of  reck- 
less, self-pleasing  actions  and  inordinate  sway  of  passions  are 
not  appreciated  and  crime  inhibited.  (*  p.  112.) 

Altruism  decreased  and  ego  unduly  prominent,  hence  the 
rights    of  others  are  not  considered  as  before. 

(i)  Children  of  drinkers  are  apt  to  be  born  with  defective 
moral  sense,  weak  or  passionate  nature,  or  with  actual  bent  to 
crime  (MacNicholl). 

(2)  Children  may  become  vicious  or  criminal  though  expo- 
sure to  bad  environment  due  to  parental  habits. 

Murder  and  Suicide, 

The  Chicago  Tribune  of  January  i,  igog,  summarizes  crime 
of  the  previous  year  as  follows  [condensed]:

"A  noticeable  feature  of  this  record  is  the  steady  increase  of 
murder    by  highwaymen    and  thugs,      being   loi    more    than  in 

1907;" 

"The  suicide  record  shows  the  same  steady  increase  as  it 
has  done  for  several  years  past.  The  number  for  igo8  was 
10,852  as  reported  in  the  public  press. The  following  table  shows 
the  steady  increase  of  self-murder:

"The  causes  of  these  suicides  are  states  as  follows,  the 
classification,  as  in  the  case  of  homicides,    being  a  general  one:

Alcohol  and  Insanity. 

By  Dr.  H.  S.    Williamson   in  McClures  Magazine. 

Considering  the  United  States  as  a  whole,  it  is  variously 
estimated  that  from  25  to  30  per  cent  of  all  the  insane  patients 
admitted  to  the  asylumns  year  by  year  owe  their  misfortune, 
directly  or  indirectly  to  the  abuse  of  alcohol.  The  statistics  of 
other  countries  are  closely  similar.  In  England  an  Wales,  ac- 
cording to  the  estimate  of  Dr.  Robert  lones,  alcohol  claims 
17,000  victims  among  an  asylum  population  of  116,000. 

The  testimony  of  Continental  alienists  is  no  less  unequivo- 
cal, and  the  statistics  upon  which  their  opinions  are  based  are 
no  less  suggestive  as  to  the  alarming  increase  in  the  ravages  of 
alcohol  in  recent  year.  Thus  the  official  returns  from  the  asylum 
of  St.  Anne,  in  Paris,  for  the  period  1872 — 1885  show  that  of 
31,733  insane  patients,  28  per  cent  of  the  men  and  less  than  6 
percent  of  the  women  owed  their  condition  to  alcoholism.  But 
of  the  patients  in  the  same  institution  in  1900,  according  to  Dr. 
Lcgrain,  no  fewer  than  51  per  cent  of  the  men  and  22  per  cent  of 
the  women  were  alcoholics. 

Altogether  similar  are  the  returns  from  the  asylums  of 
Vienna.  According  to  Tilkowski,  14,391  insane  patients  were 
under  treatment  there  during  the  period  1871 — 1882;  and  of  these 
25  percent  of  the  men  were  victims  of  alcohol.  At  the  Inter- 
national Congress  Against  Alcohol,  held  in  Vienna  in  1901,  it 
was  shown  that  the  corresponding  percentages  for  these  institu- 
tions had  grown  to  over  31  per  cent  for  the  period  1885 — 1896. 
For  the  year  1894  and  1895,  the  figures  rose  to  just  over  40 
per  cent.  — 

Drs.  Baer  and  Laquer  report  that  in  the  asylums  for  the 
insane  in  Prussia,  in  the  years  1880 — 1883,  the  proportion  of 
alcoholics  among  the  male  patients  was  30  to  32  percent.  In  1886 
the  proportion  had  risen  to  35  per  cent;  in  1887  to  37  percent;  in 
1888  to  40  per  cent.  If  cases  of  congenital  idiocy  were  included 
in  the  estimate,  the  power  of  alcohol  made  itself  felt,  in  the  last 
named  year,  to  the  extent  of  45.5  per  cent.  The  reports  of  indi- 
vidual asylums  of  Prussia  are  altogether  confirmatory.  Thus 
Dr.  Nasse,  at  Sieburg,  found  alcohol  a  factor  in  the  causation 
of  insanity  among  27  percent  of  the  male  patients  in  the  institu- 
tion; Dr.  Jung,  in  Libus,  places  the  figures  at  25  per  cent  of  all 
admissions;  and  Dr.  Pelham,  at  Grafenberg,  reports  22  per  cent 
of  male  patients  in  the  same  category. 

London  Council  Asylum  Record. 

Since  the  opening  of  the  London  County  Council  Asylum  at 
Claybury  in  1892,  the  statistics  for  the  first  twelve  years  show 
that  out  of  10,688  persons  (4,759  men,  5,949  women)  who  have 
been  received,  no  less  than  1,057  males  and  742  females  have 
been  received  with  drink  as  an  exciting  or  predisposing  cause  of 
their  insanity,  a  proportion  of  22  per  cent  of  the  men  and  12  per 
cent  of  the  women,  or  a  total  of  14  per  cent  of  the  whole.

Life  Insurance  and  Total  Abstinence. 

A  New  York  newspaper  sent  the  following  questions  to  the 
leading  life  insurance  companies  some  time  ago: 

"As  a  rule,  other  things  being  equal,  do  you  consider  the 
habitual  user  of  intoxicating  beverages  as  good  an  insurance 
risk  as  the  total  abstainer?  If  not,  why  not?"  Extract  from  the 
replies  are  given  below: 

"No.     Drink  diseases  the  system." 

"No.     Destructive  to  health." 

"No.     Less  vitality  and  recuperative  power." 

"No.     Use  tends  to  shorten  life." 

"No.     Drink  shortens  life." 

"No.     Drink  cuts  short  life  expectation." 

"No.     Drink  dangerous  to  health  and  longevity." 

"No.     Predisposes  to  disease." 

"No.     Reduces  expectation  of  life  nearly  two-thirds." 

J.  G.  Van  Cise,  actuary  of  the  Equitab  e  Life  Assurance 
Society  of  the  U.  S.,  says:  "A  man  known  to  drink  to  excess 
can  rarely  obtain  a  policy  in  any  company,  even  under  the  most 
disadvantageous  conditions." 

A  prominent  company  issues  a  circular  to  its  agents  which 
says:  "Bartenders  not  taken.  Saloonkeepers,  generally  not 
taken.  Brewers,  five  dollars  per  thousand  extra.  Employes 
in  breweries,  five  dollars  per  thousand  extra.  Waiters  selling 
liquor,  five  dollars  per  thousand  extra." 

The  Scepter  Life  Association  found  abstainers  to  be  25.12 
per  cent  better  risk  than  moderate  drinkers,  based  on  an  exper- 
ience of  twenty-three  years. 

The  Scottish  Temperance  Assurance  Company  found  ab- 
stainers to  be  25.66  per  cent  better  risk  than  moderate  drinkers. 

The  Chicago  Record-Heiald,  September  20th,  1907,  says: 
No  wise  life  insurance  company  will,  if  it  knows  it,  accept  a 
drunkard  as  a  patron. ****With  the  English  records  in  mind, 
Americans  who  are  total  abstainers  ought  to  insist  on  being 
insured  in  companies  which  reject  drinkers,  or  at  least  give  them 
A  separate  classification. ****Hard  drinkers  have  no  claim  to 
any  charity  at  the  expense  of  abstainers." 

Wide  and  careful  study  by  life  insurance  experts,  extend- 
ing over  many  years,  shows  that  a  man  who  is  physically  sound 
and  temperate  in  his  habits  at  twenty  years  of  age  may  expect 
to  live  44.2  years.  Careful  observations  made  by  F.  G.  F.  Nel- 
son of  London  shDw  that  men  who  are  drinkers  at  twenty  will 
live  on  an  average  only  15.5  years;  that  is,  total  abstainers 
twenty  years  of  age  have  a  prospect  of  living  28.7  years  longer 
than  "intemperate  men  of  the  same  age." 

The  United  Kingdom  and  General  Provident  Institution  of 
London,  basing  its  estimate  on  an  experience  of  59  years  (1847 
to  1906),  finds  that  total  abstainers  live  on  an  average  13.2 
years  longer  than  "moderate  drinkers". 

Sir  Thomas  Whittaker  shows  from  mortality  tables  covering 
a  period  of  sixty  years  that  abstainers  are  36  per  cent  better  risk 
than  non-abstainers.  And  yet  it  is  asserted  that  strong  drink  does 
not  shorten  life.     There   it  is    not   a    reputable   life  insurance

company  in  the  world    but  that   will  testify    that  strong    drink 
does  materially  shorten  life. 

During  the  same  period,  a  total  43,694  persons  have  been 
received  into  all  the  lunatic  asylums  of  London,  of  whom  7,182 
persons,  viz.,  16  per  cent  were  definitely  ascertained  to  owe 
their  insanity  to  drink  or  intemperance. 

"The  Drink  Problem",  by  Kelynack, 

The  U.  S.  Supreme  Court  vs.  the  Liquor  Traffic. 

"No  legislature  can  bargain  away  the  public  health  or  the 
public  morals.  The  people  themselves  cannot  do  it,  much  less 
their  servants." — Stone  vs.  Mississippi,  loi  U.  S.,  816. 

If  the  public  safety  or  the  public  morals  require  the  dis- 
continuance of  any  manufacture  or  traffic,  the  hand  of  the  legis- 
lature cannot  be  stayed  from  providing  for  its  discontinuance 
by  any  incidental  inconvenience  which  individuals  or  corpora- 
tions may  suffer.  All  rights  are  held  subject  to  the  police  power 
of  the  state." — Beer  Co.  vs.  Mass.,  97  U.  S.,  33. 

'The  statistics  of  every  state  show  a  greater  amount  of 
crime  and  misery  attributed  to  the  use  of  ardent  spirits  obtained 
at  these  retail  liquor  saloons  than  to  any  other  source.  The  sale 
of  such  liquors  in  this  way  has  therefore  been  at  all  times,  by 
the  courts  of  every  state,  considered  as  the  proper  subject  of 
legislative  regulation.  Not  only  may  a  license  be  exacted  from 
the  keeper  of  the  saloon  before  a  glass  of  his  liquor  can  be  thus 
disposed  of,  but  restrictions  may  be  imposed  as  to  the  class  of 
persons  to  whom  they  may  be  sold,  and  the  hours  of  th3  day, 
and  the  days  of  the  week  on  which  the  saloons  may  be  opened. 
Their  sale  in  that  form  may  be  absolutely  prohibited.  It  is  a 
question  of  public  expediency  and  public  morality,  and  not  of 
federal  law.  The  police  power  of  the  state  is  fully  competent 
to  regulate  the  business,  to  mitigate  it  evils,  or  to  suppress  it 
entirely.  There  is  no  inherent  right  in  a  citizen  to  sell  intoxicat- 
ing liquors  by  retail.  It  is  not  a  privilege  of  a  citizen  of  the 
state  or  of  a  citizen  of  the  United  States.  As  it  is  a  business 
attended  with  danger  to  the  community,  it  may,  as  already  said, 
be  entirely  prohibited,  or  be  permitted  under  such  conditions  as 

will  limit  to    the  utmost    its  evils." Justice    Field,   U.  S. 

Supreme  Court,  Crowley  vs.  Christensen,  137  U.  S.,  86;  11  Sup. 
Ct.,  13. 

Biblical  Temperance. 

The  Presbyterian  Temperance  Committee  publishes  a  tract 
under  the  above  caption  by  Dr.  Jas.  Wallace,  which  is  a  most 
concise  and  yet  comprehensive  presentation  of  the  subject.  He 
takes  those  passages  of  scripture  which  appear  to  favor  the  use 
of  strong  drink  and  those  which  oppose  it,  reconciles  them,  dis- 
cusses the  problem  historically,  gives  important  general  rules  of 
interpretation  and  principles  of  conduct  and  makes  the  applica- 
tion all  in  8  pages  and  conludes  as  follows: 

"Total  abstinence,  then,  I  believe  to  be  the  Biblical  law  of  conduct 
for  the   Christian  of  to-day.     We  must  avoid  being  stumbling  blocks,    as 


19 

btth  Christ  and  Paul  have  plainly  taught,  and  total  abstinence  is  the  only 
wty  of  doing  this. 

It  may  be  added,  in  conclusion,  that  any  other  position  involves  the 
Christian  in  serious  embarrassment.  It  compels  him  to  confess,  that,  as  he 
uncerstands  the  Bible,  it  prescribes  a  lower  standard  for  him  than  the 
Sta.e  may  prescribe  for  its  citizens.  The  Supreme  Court,  and  various  State 
Courts,  have  decided  that  the  State  has  a  perfect  legal  right  to  prohibit  the 
sale  of  intoxicants  as  beverages.  The  courts  find  this  right  in  the  central 
purpose  for  which  civil  government  exist.  Expounders  of  law  are  agreed 
that  government  has  for  its  great  end  the  maintenance  of  justice  among 
men.  If  this  is  true,  then  a  man  may  justly  be  enjoined  from  pursuing  a 
business  that  increases  his  neighbor's  taxes,  multiplies  crime,  and  renders 
it  more  difficult  to  rear  children  to  lives  of  sobriety  and  virtue.  So  the 
courts  have  held.  How  embarrassing,  therefore,  would  be  our  position  if 
we  had  to  admit,  that  while  the  prime  purpose  of  the  State  justifies  it  in 
prohibiting  the  sale  of  intoxicants,  the  Bible, our  great  authority  in  religion, 
freely  permits  their  use.  As  fundamental  justice  approves  prohibition,  so 
fundamental  Biblical  principles  commend  total  abstinence.

Committee  in  Pittsburg,  Pa.

Farmers  and  Drink. 

The  total  value  of  all  farm  products  for  the  year  1908  \\as 
1^7»778,ooo,ooo.  That  was  an  income  from  the  soil  of  $21,309,589 
per  day,  of  which  liquor  buys  less  than  seven-tenths  of  one  per 
cent,  as  shown  under  the  head  of  "The  Liquor  Trade"  on  an- 
other page.  Surely  this  is  no  basis  for  the  liquor  men's  alarm 
cry  that  to  cut  off  seven  mills  to  the  dollar  of  sales  will  "ruin" 
the  farmers  and  bring  on  a  disastrous  "panic".  Men  who  do 
their  own  thinking  and  decline  to  be  frightened  by  bogus  scare- 
crows will  not  go  into  convulsions  of  fear  over  this  showing. 

Looking  at  the  Prohibition  6'/V/<?.--- Referring  to  Census  Bulletin 
No.  57,  pages  iir-is^  we  shall  get  some  basic  information  on  the 
subject  of  the  total  value  of  the  product  of  manufactures  and  the 
cost  of  material.  These  figures  are  for  1905,  as  compared  with 
1900,  showing  an  increase  of  30  per  cent  in  value  of  products  in 
the  five  years.  At  the  same  rate,  we  add  18  per  cent  to  the 
1905  value  to  bring  it  to  1908,  making  it  $17,466,533,563.  The 
cost  of  material  was  ;?8, 503,949,756  in  1905,  to  which  we  add  18 
per  cent  as  before,  making  $10,034,660,712  for  1908. 

The  total  of  distilled, malt  and  vinous  liquors  manufactured 
in  1905  and  the  cost  of  materials  of  same  must  first  be  increased 
by  18  per  cent  to  bring  it  to  1908,  and  we  find  on  page  85  of  Bul- 
letin 57  the  figures  for  each,  and  adding  the  18  per  cent  for  the 
three  years,  we  have  materials,  $125,352,427,  and  factory  value 
of  product,  $520,057,236.  To  close  the  liquor  factories  means  the 
deduction  of  that  patronage  from  the  manufacturing  totals  above 
found, leaving  $16,946,476,327  as  value  of  products, and  $9,909,- 
308,284  as  cost  of  materials  used.  Comparing  the  value  of  manu- 
factured products  sold  with  the  $7,778,000,000  farm  products 
sold,  we  find  that  they  stand  at  68^?  per  cent  for  manufacturers 
and  3ii  per  cent  of  farm  products. 

Human  wants  are  so  largely  covered  by  the  multiform  ma- 
nufactured goods  and  the  abundant  and  varied  products  of  the 
farm  that  we  shall  not  be  making  a  violent  supposition  if  we  as- 
sume that  when  the  drinkers  "sober  up"  their  savings  will  be 
spent  directly  in  those  channels  or  will  ultimately  reach  them. 
Ten  milions  of  families  will  each  have  over  $200  extra  per  year 
to  spend  for  necessities  and  comforts.  The  total  thus  at  liberty 
will  be  at  least  $.?, 174,766,955,  as  shown  on  another  page.  Putt- 
ing 68^  per  cent  of  this  into  manufacturers  will  buy  to  the  amount 
of  $1,489,715,364,  which  is  an  absolutely  new  and  "home-mar- 
ket" permanent  and  cumulative  demand.  Putting  the  balance 
into  farmers'  products  gives  a  new,  home-market  and  cumulative 
demand  for  these  to  the  amount  of  $685,051,591.  The  assistant 
secretary  of  agriculture  stated  last  June  that  the  liquor  men 
purchased  about  $54,000,000  of  farm  products.  That  amount 
the  farmers  will  lose,  but  in  its  place  will  gain  $685,051,591,  a 
net  gain,  so  far,  of  more  than  $631,000,000,  which  is  more  than 
eleven  and  a  half  times  what  the  liquor  men  now  pay  them. 

Can  the  farmers,  and  will  the  farmers,  see  the  point?  Of 
course  they  can  and  will. — American  Prohibition  Year  Book.

Summary  of  the  General  Assembly's  Temper- 
ance Action. 

Rev.  Luther  A.  Ostrander,  D.  D.,  Chairman  of  Standing  Committee. 


RESOLUTION  1.  The  Assembly  heartily  commends  the  zeal,  wis- 
dom and  unflagging  diligence  of  the  officers  and  members  of  the  Perma- 
nent Committee  on  Temperance,  and  rejoices  in  the  splendid  achieve- 
ments of  the  year. 

(2)  The  publication  of  "The  Amethyst"  is  approved  and  pastors  are 
requested  to  endeavor  to  have  it  introduced  into  all  Presbyterian  homes. 

(3)  "The  constructive  policy"  outlined  in  the  Permanent  Commit- 
tee's Annual  Report  is  commended  to  the  co-operation  of  presbyteries 
and  synods. 

(4)  The  action  of  the  Permanent  Committee  in  becoming  a  part  of 
the  Inter-Church  Temperance  Council  is  ratified. 

(5)  Approval  is  expressed  of  the  grant  of  $1,000  by  the  Board  of 
Publication  and  Sabbath-school  Work  for  literature  for  the  Temperance 
Committee. 

(6)  The  Assembly  rejoices  that  so  many  magazines  and  news- 
papers have  eliminated  liquor  advertisements,  and  urges  our  people  to 
exert  their  influence  towards  a  like  purging  of  the  advertising  columns 
of  all  periodicals  that  regularly  enter  their  homes. 

(7)  That  the  last  Sunday  in  October  or  such  other  date  as  may  seem 
most  opportune,  is  recommended  as  Temperance  Day,  to  be  observed  in 
churches,  Sunday-schools,  Young  People's  Societies  by  instruction  and 
the  taking  of  offerings  for  the  Temperance  Committee. 

(8)  Women's  Societies  are  cordially  invited  to  active  co-operation 
with  the  Permanent  Committee  in  local  work,  especially  in  the  endeavor 
to  banish  drink  from  the  homes  and  the  social  sphere. 

(9)  Former  deliverances  are  reiterated  regarding  the  unalterable 
hostility  of  the  Presbyterian  Church  to  the  liquor  traffic;  the  inculcation 
and  practice  of  total  abstinence  are  urged  and  members  are  enjoined  from 
renting  property  for  liquor  purposes,  signing  license  petitions,  or  in  any 
way  making  profit  of  the  traffic. 

(10)  The  memorials  addressed  to  the  general  government  as  re- 
ported by  the  Permanent  Committee  are  approved  and  the  Committee  is 
instructed  to  further  memorialize  the  Congress  for  the  establishment  of 
a  prohibition  zone  of  twenty-five  miles  around  each  Indian  reservation ; 
also  for  such  Inter-State  Commerce  legislation  as  shall  prevent  the  nullifi- 
cation of  prohibitory  laws.  The  Committee  is  instructed  to  protest 
against  our  nation's  iniquitous  complicity  with  the  traffic  by  licensing  or 
deriving  revenue  from  it ;  as  also  against  the  issuance  of  federal  tax 
receipts  to  vendors  of  liquor  in  prohibition  territory,  and  against  the 
admission  to  the  United  States  mails  of  liquor  advertisements. 


40 

(11)  Declaring  the  temperance  reform  to  be  a  matter  of  education, 
the  Assembly  urges  on  every  pastor  his  responsibility  for  such  diligent 
teaching  as  may  create  a  public  sentiment  that  shall  result  in  the  indijgnant 
expulsion  of  this  curse  from  our  land. 

(12)  In  view  of  the  great  importance  of  the  temperance  reform  and 
the  efficient  work  of  the  Assembly's  Committee,  all  Presbyterian  churches 
are  urged  to  turn  their  offerings  for  temperance  to  their  own  Committee ; 
to  make  large  use  of  the  literature  and  lecturers  of  the  Committee,  and  it 
is  recommended  that  an  earnest  effort  1)e  made  on  the  part  of  our  churches 
to  raise  an  aggregate  sum  of  $36,000  for  the  prosecution  of  this  work. 

(13)  Our  people  are  urged  to  insist  upon  and  assist  in  the  enforce- 
ment of  laws  by  those  who  have  been  elected  for  that  purpose. 

(14)  The  use  of  tobacco  by  ministers  and  laymen  is  discouraged. 

(15)  Members  of  the  Committee  whose  terms  have  expired  are  re- 
elected, and  Rev.  William  Parsons  fills  a  vacancy  caused  by  resignation. 

The  work  of  the  W.  C.  T.  U.,  Anti-Saloon  League,  National  Temper- 
ance Society,  and  other  organizations  is  commended,  but  our  people  are 
urged  to  remember  that  the  Permanent  Committee  is  especially  our  own 
agency  and  worthy  of  most  loyal  support  by  every  Presbyterian.

The  Sixty-third  Annual  Report. 

Tlie  Board  has  selected,  subject  to  your  approval,  Rev.  C.  E.  Hayes,  D.D., 
and  Rev.  E.  E.  Morris,  D.D.,  to  succeed  themselves  in  office  as  corporate  mem- 
bers imtil  1912. 

The  Board  has  undertaken  no  new  work,  neither  has  it  solicited  or  received 
funds  for  new  or  additional  work  in  the  departments  of  Home  or  Foreign  Mis- 
sions or  Church  Erection. 

We  have  made  diligent  efforts  to  collect  the  outstanding  loans  due  the 
Church  Erection  Fund,  and  to  dispose  of  the  real  estate  properties  reported  to 
the  last  General  Assemblj'.  Tlie  financial  strain  that  has  been  upon  the  countrj'' 
has  made  collections  very  difficult  and  there  has  been  very  little  demand  for 
improved  church  property.  Through  the  process  of  law  we  have  collected  the 
Rolf,  Okla.,  claim  of  $300  and  the  Henderson,  Ky.,  claim  of  $2000.  Other 
suits  are  now  pending.  There  remains  imcollected  at  this  time  nine  loans 
aggregating  $5817.60,  as  follows:
