the theme, "A Lesson on Church

by Mrs. Nelson Heys and Mrs. Jas.

Mrs. Elgin McKinley, Zurich.
A very gracious welcome was, ex-
tended to the visitors by Mrs. Atkin-
son of Brucefield, and responded to
by Mrs. Roy Lawson, Seaforth.
The minutes of the previous meet-
ing were approved as read. Mrs.
Fred Reid, Varna, was appointed
to be back to Brucefield and she was
quite familiar with it in her younger
days andhad several relatives there.
She had spent her fourth term at
Shanghai and after a year's furlough
was always glad to be back, China
was making great advance and she
had great faith in China. Back in
1937 they had never dreamed of
such a catastrophe coming from the
hands of Japanese although they had
seen some of their rash acts. There
were many panics. Shanghai had
been destroyed twice in five years.
China had a noble army. There were
then several refugees to care for and
Christians took help to every camp.
There were 20,000 in the camps and.
50 were dying every 'day. Conditions

They could teach simple reading
in four months but they had very
little simple work for them to read.
She tried to make something for
them—some little books with' only
1100 characters. Then she wanted a
magazine to come regularly. At first
she had fourteen subscriptions and
soon had '2,200. Any books appealed
to Chinese and they even took them
with them on vacation. It was hard
to get paper. Do we ever think what
we owe to the, printed page? If early
disciples had not written what would
the results have been. One man took
a trip with several tons of : Bibles
and Bible literature. It took him sev-
en weeks for what usually took two
days. He then sold $1,000 books and
had orders for $100,000. They soon
called for Miss Brown to return to
China but she hadn't a passport from
Canada to return. She stressed how
we must not shrink our duty. Never
was there such a need for mission
work.
Mrs. Toll moved a vote of thanks
to Miss Brown. We then sang hymn
286 and Miss Hern led in prayer.
Miss Kirk,, Londesboro, then gave a
splendid report on the training school
