I should be inclined to any that work which we are now trying to do for finally this will be the result. It seems to me that that is inevitable; it is inconceivable, to my mind at least, that a nation em or will leave its education to foreign interlopers. much water must ran under the brings bafora wished. And this brings me to the second line. we reach this conmm nation, derually to be of development, amely the continued existence of mission schools and colleges alongside the national oduostional system whatever they may be.

The historian of the future, be ke Masanlay's New Zealander, or another, when he comes to tall the story of missionary educational work in China, will divide that story into three parts Permit me briefly to refer to these. The first will be that whose story is which is already history. They tell that that which is the history which you and I st second will be now making. The third will be that into which we are now passing, the signs of whoss ooming are already visible to him who takes long views, that which perhaps may coms upon as sooner than we expect, or perhaps may delsy longer than we hope or fear.

Now the first of the parts cloicas our attention for a brief time. It is that stage of missionary educational work in which the mis sionary socioties brought and offered to the Chinese sa ednosties, a

learaing which was not wanted. und not sought after. We were the position of who has something already in the market, yet for which there is no demand. So the mission schools had to begin in a small way. They had to offer their tench Ing and their Western wisdom and wit free of charge-a gift. They had often to offer spaoist inducements to persuade the Cainere to try this new thing, even as the maker and saller of some new coffee, or razɔr, or what not, throws in a silver spoon, or gives a coupon to parchase withal, in order to indaco a dull and stupid poblis to bay this one thing it needs. Thus the mission schools. These conditions were fous to ciency in the way of expense, and no less in the discouragement they gave to those engagəd in the work.
