"Oh. did you?" The sentence
sounded more like a sigh of relief
than a question.

Mr.. Leighton proceeded to dis

FIFTY THOUSAND COOLIES
SENT TO FRANCE.

WHAT optimist a generation sgt
would have thought that backward
China would have a hand in the settle
ment of a world war? But China is
having a very important role in the
great war that is just being brought
10 q close. Not as soldiers-figh htine
men but as laborers behind the front
line trenches. And Just so many al
lied troops have been released for
other duties. Practically one hundred
and fifty thousand OF these cooliee
have been transported by way of the
Suez to France. This work has been
done under the direction Of the British
Government and Church missionaries.
Among these missionaries are many Of
the Methodist Episcopal Church, South,
