We referred some time ago to the efforts that wore being made by the Rhapish Mission to extend their medioal mission muck in Tungkun on the East River, winru the Rev. W. Dietrich has been labouring with great zeal and activity. The town his a population of 300,000 inhabitants and the surrounding districts are very populous 33 There is thus a large field for mission work
and the labourers are indeed few. With the help of many kind friends in Hongkong On the 25th Instant, at St John'a Osthedral, by the Ror. W. Jennings, and elsewhere, Mr Districh was able about Chaplain, JAM HALDARE sighteen months ago to build a mall in STEWART LOCKRAFT M.L.C., Registrar- General, to Edir LOTIAR RIDER, 8000nd firmory. From that time up to the end of last year 4,100 patients wore treated, and daughter of Alfred Hancock, longkong,

8,40 p.m.
was ably carried on by a native surgeon trained by De Kers, but Mr Dietrich was not satisfied until the Society had sent him a European doctor to take the entire direc tion of the medical work and give it a new impulse. This task, however, will not be s | lighteneinsuchan extensive field. Addition- al accommodation must be got, especially a second building for females, the mixing of the sexes in a hospital being repaguant to Chinese ideas. Mr Dietrich is appealing again to his friends to support the Phonish Missionary Society in thin good work and the Chinese themselves will continue their haly, Medical Mission work is not only s mesos of alleviating suffering, but is, an in now acknowledged on all hands, one of the beat aids to the spread of the Gospel.
