BIBLE SOCIETY.

Annual Meeting of Local

Auxiliary.

The annual meeting of the Hongkong Auxiliary of the British and Foreign Bible Sociefy was held at the Helena May Institute yesterday afternoon, when the Lord Bishop of Victoria presided. The proceedings were marked by interesting speeches from Miss |Hughes, of Ning-po, Dr, Webb An-| derson, who has worked in Fat- shan for the past 22 years, and Miss Dunk from Pakhoi.

After the Rev. J. Kirk Macona- ehie had led the meeting in prayer, the President called upon Dr. T. W. Pearce (Hon. Secretary) to! present his report.

Dr. Pearce, commenting on the report, said that it was the first time the annual meeting of the auxiliary had been held in the Colony under the presidency of the Bishop. It was their earnest wish that the Bible Society should] put on strength and be able to do more than it had ever done before. He hoped that the President's term of office would be a fruitful one. Referring to the history of this Auxiliary in the past, he men,, tioned the fact that it had been founded many years ago by Mrs. Burden and said that he know of no better method of keeping her memory green than by maintain- ing the Auxiliary in the highest state of efficiency. Concluding, he appealed carnestly to all pre- sent to help the Society to carry' on its great work.

The Rev. H. E. Anderson, the Society's Sub-Agent in Hongkong, | who read the Treasurer's report in the absence of the Honorary Treasurer, expressed special thanks to the Chinese churches for the valuable services they hud rendered to the Society,

The Chairman moved that copies of the reports be forwarded to the Society's agent in Shanghai and the headquarters in London. Miss Hughes, speaking of the Society's work in Ningpo, said that it was probably very difficult for those in Hongkong to realise how few women in the heart of China were educated, It was found actually necessary to pay money to parents in order to in- duce them to send their little girls to school. Ning-po had a population of roughly 3,000,000, and practically all the women except the girls were uneducated.

A Good Time Coming.

As an example of the power of the bible, Miss Hughes related a stery of

who a Chinese woman. became converted and as a proof] of her sincerity brought a great many idolatrous papers-which had been given to her by Buddist monks to be burnt. One of these papers promised her a million dollars in the next world.

After the reports had been jadopted and those present had sung the hymn "Lord, Thy word abideth," Dr. Webb Anderson pro-i posed the re-election of Dr. Pearce' as Honorary Secretary, Mr. T. Arnott as Treasurer, and that the Committee be formed of the ladies and gentlemen whose names were in the report, with power to add to their number.
