" LIZZIE O THOMAS M4gT

was there two winters and one summer,
hen his parents moved to Formosa. We
lad no work there, but he took our lit
tie Sunday school for his model and
truly became a missionary to those pe0-
pie. There were others in whose heart
The Word of God lodged and brought
forth fruit.
There are churches here that close
their Sunday schools in winter, but l
well knew that the crowd would be at
the train to meet me even though the
snow was too thick to see across the
road. The Buddhist priests used to
make the mothers go to the door and
call some of the children out of Sunday
school. AS a rule their parents did not
object they weTS entertained and out of
mischief when listening to US. So, 1t
was a common occurrence for them to
go out of the front door and Immediate
ly creep back through an entrance in
the rear.
One never knows what is going to be
the influence brought to bear upon life,
and it is well at all times to SOW the
seed and remember that God alone
giveth the increase" We have a family
in our mission work, splendid people,
who were led into Christianity by the
young mother with her first baby on
her back, standing at evening and lis
tening through a high board fence, to
a missionary mother singing to her own
little ones. That missionary mother
and the Japanese mother are both in
Heaven now, but the third generation,
the daughter of that baby boy is in our
school and her father is a good man, a
consecrated preacher. his sister taught
in our school, and his father was for
years one of our main helpers.
Give to the Red Cross. give to the or
phans but don't forget your duty to
send the gospel across the seas.
Faithful yours,
LIZZIE o. THOMAS.
