^ Luke’s International Hospital Tokyo Sketch map showing Tokyo the logical center for an Inter- national Hospital serving the Far East The red x s show the present chain of hospitals between Cairo and San Francisco international in character and well fitted for the care of foreigners ISSUED BY THE AUTHORITY OF THE WOMAN’S NATIONAL COUNCIL St. Luke’s International Hospital TOKYO ©ffirera MItS. GEORGE WHARTON I'EITER CJi airman MRS. CHARLES JtODMAN RANCOAST i>’ui'se among its chief supporters. Organized etfort is also being made to secure a grant from the Imperial Household, which will most probably meet with success. AVithout exception, the leading Japanese physicians and the diplomatic repre- sentatives of foreign countries hack the enterprise. There is an international eagerness for its inception. This plan for a greater St. Luke’s has received in Japan really extraordinari/ endorsement. That very rarely ex- tended honor. Imperial patronage, is j)roniised, and prac- tically every prominent statesman in the country has given his approval and ])ledged cooperation. Private Room TIIK C^riHrSTIAX AIOTEVE The growth and development of St. Luke’s is the exi)res- sion of the ideals of the individual, aud its very sueeess is proof of the wisdom of the plan now under eonstruetion. The C’hureh of Japan has never before had sueh an opi)or- tunity ])resented. It is a ehallenge to our C’hristianity that we meet liberally and i)romi)tly the generous offers already made by the Japanese themselves. Certainly Dr. Teusler and Dr. Bliss deserve the supi)ort not only of their fellow ehurehmen, hut of their fellow coun- trymen. i\[any of them have already availed themselves in time of urgent need of the facilities of St. Luke’s aud the skill of its staff. We may set aside the fact that these two men are every year contributing to the maintenance of the hospital many thousand dollars, not merely in serv- ice for which the missionary salary is no com])ensation, hut in actual money earned l)y them in practice outside of the hos])ital. In their position in St. Luke’s Hospital and ])ul)- lic life in Tokyo these two physicians are interpreting to the Japanese all that is best in the medical and scientific life of the United States. As the friends and heliiers of many Jai)anese they are revealing to the nation the vital things that lie at the foundation of American life. Chris- tianity’s message to the men of other faiths has nowhere found more effective delivery than through the friendly voice and kindly hands of St. Luke’s, set down in Tokyo, to minister alike to Japanese and foreigm r. Its unique position, its splendid ex]iansion and its newer aims broaden and diversify the ]>ower of its expression. The Christianity, which sup])lements and proves faith by works and makes living and real the charity which it preaches, is everywhere the most effecuive, and so it has l)een with St. Luke’s, which to thousands of .la]ianese is the ideal inter])retation and ex])ression of the creed which 9 it represents. Its friendly doors liave always been open to them in pain and distress and their gratitude has been wide and enduring. Entrance, Nurses’ Home ENDORSEMENT OF THE BOARD OF MISSIONS AND GENERAL CONVENTION • The Board of ^Missions has officially endorsed this appeal. The House of Bishops and Lay Deputies at Joint Session in General Convention freely approved the plan, and the enclosed resolution offered by Bishop Brent was carried unanimously. 10 THE IMMEDIATE NEED First i)t' all. money must be obtained to })urohase the land and erect two buddinji's for immediate use. iMcanwliile the work of bt. Imke's will continue on its present site undisturbed. $-.^50,000 is the minimum sum with which this can be done. Of this amount at least .$100,00(1 should be given by our ('hun-h before Easter. 1014. Id.l.OOO is already assured. Gifts, large or small, are most 'svelcome, and it is rcr// iiii portant that the people of the Church throughout America should share in this privilege of building in Tokyo this sjdendid monument to C'hristian faith, for the continual s])iritual intluence of the work. Confideut that the people of the Church will resjiond because the need is acute and the means of relief are in comjietent hands, the Council makes the appeal for assistance.

THIS WOULD MEAN AN EXPENDITURE OF $250,000, OF WHICH AT LEAST $100,000 SHOULD BE GIVEN IN THE UNITED STATES.” The following- is only a partial list of the signers of the memorial recently submitted to the American C^onncil : H.
