Excerpt from On the Way to Hwai Yuen: Or the Story of a Mule Ride in China Constant letters from the missionaries, with kodak pictures Of their homes and the scenes about them, which are Often thrown upon the screen, keep the interest always alive in the Central Church. Al though this work Of supporting two mission stations, one in the Home and one in the Foreign Eield, is ex pensive, running far into the thousands every year, yet it ought to be stated that the Church still gives its annual Offering each year to the general work Of the Home and Foreign Boards, and this year the Of ferings were a large increase over those in former years. The Central Church believes thoroughly in this plan of a church supporting its own mission aries. A great wealth Of prayer and sympathy goes out toward them from the Church at home, and the reflex influence is most marked, leading the Chris tians here to put their lives on the basis Of foreign missionary heroism and consecration.
