Large t ongregations were at Knox church Oil Sunday to hear Rev. Donald MacGillivray, D. D., of Shanghai, Carla. Dr. MacGillivray preached morning and evening and intended his hearers in the great work with which he is connected. and in which he is a leader -the work of carrying the Gospel message to the count- less millions of China. His morning text was from Epheaian. 6:14 -the phrase "girt about with truth,"' which. he said, was exemplified in the mission cause. He quoted Rev. Robert C. Speen' statement of the causes for which tie united States entered the war: To right wrong. to establish justice in the. world, to make the world safe for demo• cracy. to end war. etc. These were the causes which were actuati g the Chris- tian missionary work in Chula. There was war in China: war between Provinces, war between the old and the new, war between right and wrong: and there could not be an end.to wars without the Christianizing of China. The great thing was to get the Chinese to know the fact of Christ, and with that one thing accomplished there would not be much need to trouble about the thousand and one other things. Answering his own question, Do the Chinese welcome the fact of Christ? Dr. MacGillivray gave some information as to the work in which he was engaged the publication of Christian literature. The children of school age in China numbered forty millions. and the child in Cling who could not read was a rarity. The children were (east bound b> the dead hand of the past. and to reach them was to influent the young China which was now a power to be reckoned w ith. The speaker's first years in China were as a miss ovary among tie masses of the Province of Horan. from which be was uprooted twenty years ago and put to work at Shanghai in the line in which he has since been engaged Since that time the Chinese pre -s had had ice birth and it had now a large circulation. These papers opened their columns to articles contributed by him. which thus reached a very large constituency. Then there was the work of educating the Chinese themselves for missionary work, and this was the starting of an endless chain of in- fluence. The Bible was the most popular book in China, and the "best selier" at present was the Bible dictionary issued under his direction for the use of Chitem Christian workers. which had had a sur- prisingly large sal^.. As sacrifice was the spirit that was going to win the war, so it was that which would send young people from congrega- tions like that of Knox church to the work in China. Ile believed there would be a great onrush of the young life of Canada in the war that would know no , truce until the King was crowned to rule over all the kingdoms of the earth. At the evening service Dr. MacGilli- vray told something of his evangeGstiC work. particularly describing a visit made by him three years ago to the Province of Honan, the scene of his 1 labors n China First however.

After a Ixief business session the meet- ing was given over to the special feature of the day, an address by Mrs. MacGil- livray, of Shanghai. who with Dr. Mac- Gillivray, whom Goderich is proud to claim as an "old boy." is spending her furlough in Canada. She was listened to with eager interest by all present, the appeal of her subject be ng greatly strengthened' by the simple earnestness with which it was told. as well as by the fact that she chose to speak from the personal point of view, relating some of her own experiences with Chinese women, and explaining how many and varied are the methods used to gain an entrance to their homes and hearts. Her stories were permeated with optimisth and faith, and she awakened an interest in the lives of our faraway sisters which will surely bear, fruit in the years to come_ it was some- what off a revelation to her hearers to learn that the Chinese Christian women are active Red Cross workers. making bandages and surgical dressings, and knit- ting socks for the Allies. with a zeal and ability unsurpassed by our Canadian worker. In concluding. Mrs. MacGil- livray bore convincing testimony to the powerof hprayere and ed her urged upon r - missionaries and converts, as well as of their own missionaries, in their prayers. Mrs. MacGillivray spoke also on Sunday to the Sunday school and on Wednesday to the Mission Band, dwelling on these occasions more particularly upon her own special work, the editing of "Happy Child- hood." This is an illustrated weekly be- gun some three years ago and unique in bapaper ng the first, and so far the only, published for Chinese children. and d has already proved itself of inestimable value. 87.5 y..67.3 86 _" --------- - - .
