"The record of railroad accidents

In and out among the hundreds of
small islands in the Sea of Japan a lit
tie white ship threads its way on a new
er ending cruise of Christianity. 1t is
the Church of the Fukuin Maru, and it
carries the gospel message to thou
sands who could not be reached in any
other way.
The ship, like the itinerant preacher
and the circuit rider Of the old days,
makes port in lonely out of the way
places. 1t dispenses a hospitality that
might well be envied by American
churches with better advantages. Ma
tives flock to hear the messages deliv-
cred on its deck.
The Fukuin Maru Is the only floating
Baptist church in the world, and 1t is
regarded by members of that denomi-
nation as one of the most unique eff
forts of the Christian missionary move
ment. For years it was commanded by
Captain Luke Bickel, who recently
died, and now the Northern Baptists
are e~ndeavoring to find a captain
preacher who will take his place.
There are 33 churches OF the Baptist
faith in Japan, with a total member
ship of 1851. Plans have already been
outlined, however, for the building of
Is new churches Immediately and later

to erect a church in every center Of
Baptist work.
1.-The people of Japan are ready TO
listen to the gospel" a recent report of
the field survey committee of the
Northern Baptist Convention says.
'Their faith in the old religions is
broken. But the gospel must be pre-
scented to them by men of their own
race who are competent to present 1t
in a strong, intelligent way. We must
have thoroughly trained Japanese lead
ers and pastors who a command at
tention."
Careful consideration is being given
the housing of the Christian church in
Japan so as to win the respect of the
people. "a rented store in a side street
does not command the respect of the
Japanese any more than it does Of the
Italians in New York" the report
states. "Our fine institutional church
building, the Tabernacle in Tokyo,
ought to be duplicated at every impor-
tant center, and attractive, dignified
houses of worship should be erected at
every other point"
The Baptists are ~endeavoring so far
as possible to develop complete indie
pendence of the Japanese churches, un-
der their own leaders.

develop the willingness to sacrifice for
Americas ideals are being undertaken
today by government and other agen-
cies. In this big task the Northern
Baptist Convention plans to take an
increased part.
The need of vigorous action along
these lines is perhaps best shown in
the words of John Reed, Bolshevist
writer and organizer, who in New York
on April Z, 1919, urged the B%olshevists
'"Never mind the old men nor the
middle age men. And don't pay atten-
ton to the American citizen. Get the
immigrant. Get them at the impress
sionable ages of sixteen to twenty-five.
Get them all. Organize them and teach
them as you organize"
This outspoken advice has stirred
Church and government to renewed ac-
tivity. The former is interested that
this shall be carried out in keeping
with Christian principles. And the
