Mandarin School for Evangelists
By A. C. SELMON, M. D.
THE illustration shows a few of the students in our Mandarin School for Evangelists, dedicated this year at our Shanghai headquarters. We have sixty-one in attendance being trained for gospel service. The majority of them have already been in the work as evangelists or colporteurs. Some will not have opportunity to continue their school work beyond the present year. The demands from the fields are so urgent that we must do our best to train these young people in the shortest possible time, so that they may enter the ripening harvest fields. There are mission schools to be taught and evangelistic work to be done. If we had two hundred in the school, there would be places for them all in the field. One young man and his wife are here from Manchuria. He is full of enthusiasm, and will make a most efficient helper for the brethren who are to open our work in Manchuria this autumn. These young people manifest a good spirit in every way, and they have a strong purpose in their hearts to join in carrying this advent message to all China. This is some of the fruitage that encourages our hearts here, and we know it will encourage those who are sacrificing in the homelands to sustain the work. A. C. SELMON, M. D.
