Let us now take account of the force at
present actually in the field. After deduct
ing those who are disabled by reason of age
or infirmity, and those who are as vet unac-
quainted with the languages required we
shall lind not more than one hundred and
forty effective men. Add to these twenty mis-
sionary physicians and other laymen one
hundred unmarried women, devoted to schools
and other work, and the wives of missionaries
most of whom are doing valuable service, and
we have about 400 men and women as the ac-
tual working force, to whom is committed
the evangelization of a population twice as
large as is to be found in these United States.
In this country we have one evangelical min
lister to every seven hundred of the population ;
and for home missionary purposes we may
say that one ordained missionary is required
for every thousand, though we are not sure
that our home missionary societies would ac-
cept of so many for each of their missionaries.
But 1t Is idle to think of sending men to sup
ply the need abroad in any such proportion.
1t is deemed enough to assign three ordained
missionaries with their wives. and two single
ladies, with possibly missionary physician
to over 100000 souls. This proportion
three ordained missionaries to 500. 900 in the
foreign field and one to 1000 in the home
held, -markes the difference between the two
fields. and shows the possibility of evangeliz
ing the world through the efforts Of the
churches OF this generation.
With our present missionary force, or with
any force we can command, it is obvious that
great expenditures are necessary for training
schools and seminaries, that we'll INSTRUCTED
preachers and teachers may be put into the
field. AS education advances, a Christian
literature must supply the demand of the
growing intelligence. The church edi6ee is
as Necessary in the foreign as in the home
field. Indeed, every plea made for the various
interests OF the home work, for men and
women of ability, tact, and true conservation
every plea for colleges and semenaries. for
Christian literature and ehuech building are
equally APPLICABLE to the foreign fiedd, only in
tensified by the utter lack o. the thousand
