effect of the native Chinaman a missionary

tianity The effect of this long continued work
is becoming very marked, as many former pupils
are now sending their sons over from China to
be trained in the same school
OF the sincerity of mosts of the converts the
workers have no doubt, and cite many cases
where Christian laundrymen have refused to
work or even to deliver packages on Sunday
In one such case Chnaman was actually hailed
to a magistrates court on the ground that he
was trying to keep the customers linen, but
when the truth known both complainant
and judge quickly agreed to his discharge, and
the clean clothes promptly delivered on
Monday. The workers also say that pupils have
resisted tie attempts of some of the ChlneSe
secret societies to wean them from their new
faith and that those who have once entered
the Church do not opium, do not gamble
and are moral and law abiding.
New-York tribune., 1908-02-02
COURSE OF INSTRUCTION.

Many former pupils who have mastered Eng
lsh and have Joined the parent church return
each Sunday to act interpreters and teachers
for the beginners, most OF whom cannot speak
a word of English, and some Of whom unable
TO read Chinese. The first effort is to give them
enough English to enable them to understand
the Christian message which is to be given to
them later.
Primers and readers written in words Of one
syllable. and giving their meanings in Chinese
characters, employed and for those who
read Chinese, the greater part do. the work
is comparatively easy, and in two three years
the pupils learn TO speak English and acquire
some facility IN writing IT. The religious teach
ing. which is the primary object of the school, is
essentials Of Christianity. occasional addresses
translated into Chinese, the repeating Of simple
prayers, the singing Of hymns in English and
finally the singing of the Doxology and other
hymns In Chinese. The singing OF an English
hymn in Chinese gives a most strange effect for
ours that the teachers not only have TO teach a
sransiation of the words. but train the ears
and voices OF their charges TO an entirely new
musical scale. In this school, which was started
in 1856, With the approval of the late Rev DIR
John Hall, and which has been continuously

The opportunity TO learn English is according
