MISSIONARIES BRING TRADE.

Americas part in China's re-awaken-
ing was the subject OF lecture by DIR.
Isaac Headland at New York Avenue
Presbyterian Church last night DR..
Headland declared that American mis-
sionaries in China had blazed the way
for commercial exploitation Of the coun-
try by the big corporations of the United
Stated.
American commerce wrrn China was
practically nil until that country was
opened by our missiOnaries,' he said.
Forty years ago you could not find a
pound Of American -four in all China.
To-day the docks at Shanghai. and all
the other big ports, are stacked high.
not only with our -four. but with wheat
from the great Northwest
1T would pay American business men
in hard dollars to invest in foreign mis-
sions. The more missionaries We have
in China, just SO much the quicker will
that country find the excellence OF
things Occidental. The best drummers
