Japan

By F. H. DeVINNEY

HERE we can hold three tent efforts in a season. In most places the people will come out to meetings as in the early days of tent efforts in the States. There are no halls here, and it is difficult to attempt to work in that way. Japanese houses are generally small, so meetings can not often be held in private homes. Our method is to hold Bible readings with small groups of interested ones. This is good work, but it is slow, and the King's business requires haste in this great empire.
We have a small school this year, as we thought it best to leave some who have had the advantages of the school in the field, to hold interests, while we called in for study those who had not heretofore had the privilege of attending. We have a good class of young men. Some are ready to take a more active part in evangelistic effort from their experience in tent work last season. We propose to give them an opportunity to develop, so that they may perfect themselves, and push on the work of the Lord. F. H. DeVINNEY.
