'ra-'‘Yx- our JPill ^oln PREA M^.oK.ca Only two out of five Japanese have heard of Christianity '^^Made in Japan Politics, schools, and ideas for the entire East are made in Japan. Shall these products help or hinder modern civilization ? The answer depends upon how closely Japan can be allied with Christianity. Therefore Christian missionaries must keep up their evangelistic work in Japan, for as yet only two out of every five persons have ever heard the Gospel. In Korea, too, evangelistic work must go on, for this is an age of great oppor- tunity there. The little nation, deprived of its political independence, is turning to Christianity and promises to become the “first fruits” of the Orient.

Tke Land of Model ScLools Japan is a land where nobody plays hookey; ninety-eight per cent of the children are in school, and Japan is ex- tending her educational system into Korea and is teaching China’s teachers. But the Japanese concern themselves entirely with the three R’s and give no attention to moral teaching. That is the reason mission schools are needed in Japan and Korea. They alone place proper emphasis upon character-building, and they alone are capable of training the future leaders of the church. That mission schools do succeed in placing the imprint of religion upon their pupils, is shown by the large percentage of scholars who become Christians.

Casting tke Devils Out of Korea The medical missionary has cast many devils out of Korea, for the old idea of the country was that evil spirits caused all sickness. The chief requisite of the Korean doctor was that he should know each of the three hundred places in the human body into which a needle might be stuck to force the escape of the disease devils. Now mission doctors are showing that disease is more closely connected with dirt than with devils, but the supply of physicians is still inadequate, and some days one doctor has to treat a hundred clinic patients.
