A PIONEER SUNDAY SCHOOL
WORKER IN CHINA

Just as the Log College, after
ward Princeton College, and other reli-
Eious schools in America laid the found
atoms of the present public school sys-
tens in the United States, so the small
day school started twenty-five years ago
by a professor in the Anglo-American
college at FOochow was the basis of a
public school system in Fuhkien Prov
lnce. China. Rev. George S. Miner the
man who was instrumental in this move
ment, started this small school aside
from his college duties in rented rooms
He hired Chinese men, some of them
heathen,~ 10 teach the pupils, and the
Idea grew in favor generally with the
natives So that in time there was no
less than 275 of these schools, support
ed entirely through his effects in raising
money by mail in this country. The
success of the project was so marked
that the Methodist Board of Foreign
Missions adopted the work, and since the
establishment of the republic Chinese
authorities have patterned after it in
planning the common school system of
Fuhkien Province. He has also been the
leader in the erection of a building in
which to train Chinese to teach in these
schools, and high school building.
this pioneer and a graduate OF Drew
Seminary this year, and master of arts
Of Columbia University, has been ap-
pointed superintendent OF Methodist Sun
day school work in Fuhkien Province.
As he is the first Sunday school mis-
sionary to be sent by American mission
boards TO China, his work will be
watched with unusual interest as marking
an ad-ance in aim OF Methodist missions
in Asia Having spent years of his boy
hood in Foochow, Mr.. Wallace Miner re-
turns to that country able to speak the
Fuhkien dialect so well that he is said
to be able to deceive the natives as to
his foreign origin. He will cooperate
with the missionaries in the development
OF the Sunday school work of that dis
trict. Through institutes he win instruct
the pastors in effective methods of Sum
day school organization and activity

Church and Newspaper.

In a sermon delivered in one of the
Washington churches last Sunday night
the minister spoke of the Christian Sci
ence Monitor as a worthy newspaper that
is doing much good. 1t is an unusual
thing for a religious organization to con-
duct a newspaper, but this the Christian
Scientists have been doing for Ive years.
and they appear to be making a success
of the undertaking. The policy OF the
paper is to record the good things that
are of daily occurrence, and not to ad-
vertise crime. In doing this it does not
criticise those papers that pursue a diff
ferent course. Its attitude seems to be
rather one Of encouragement to adopt
higher standards as fast as practicable
1t is stated on good authority that it is
the settled policy of the paper not to
pay profit. but to turn all its surplus
earnings back into the business to in
crease the efficiency of its service. It is
therefore not a money-makinG enterprise,
but it is said to be self-supporting.

The Indu.triou. French Woman.

most during a month Just spent in
Paris said a New York woman, was
the ceaseless industry of the French
working women. Not only was every
minute occupied, but usually these tire
less workers seemed to be getting double
return from their time. The young
woman who came for our washing ap-
peared at our apartment door knitting
in hand. She carried the clothes home
on her back, knitting as she walked
along. Our little maid of all work kept
her crocheting in the kitchen and while
the meals were cooking on the funny lit
tie gas stove she crocheted as though
her life depended upon ii, and so far as
could see neither the cooking nor the
lace work suffered because of her di-
vided attention. When the doorbell rang
she walked down the little hall, still
crocheting. l surreptiously put a-mark
