ton at the outset, since it is the con-
slant specter at every missionary fam
lily board, is the enforced separation
Of parents from children. This strikes
down to the deeps of human nature.
The breaking of these ties that are as
old as the race, and stronger than
death, is the overcoming tragedy of
missionary life. Children must be ed
ucated in the homeland; it seems i'm
possible to raise a good American in
an Asiatic atmosphere Even in earli-
est years the children imbibe with the
native tongue more knowledge Of evil
than comes to the normal boy and girl
at home in 20 years. AS they approach
or enter their teens missionaries chill
dren must be surrendered, and fire.
quently they are not seen again by
their parents until they have attained
manhood or womanhood. Tragic tales
are told of children who do not recog-
nize their own parents and of parents
who do not recognize their own chill
dren after these long separations.
This appears to me to be the worst of
all the hardships that come to these
accomplishing missionaries
While on the domestic aspect of the
missionary's life, it is worth recording
that the second generation may fire.

spectators that you will point out any
domino that he may think of.
When he says he is ready, you tell
him that you will count round the cir

miscuously,, each touch counting one,
and that when you have counted 20,
including the number of spots on the

Let us suppose, for illustration, ex-

pieces with your finger, counting 1, 2,
3, 4, S, s, Z, and so forth, skipping
about the circle as you count But
when you come to the eight count you
must touch the double-six, and then
count regularly around to the right.
