i MISSIONARY SPEAKER]
Rev W. C. MelaiughlLn. Prosbyte- I

tUtlon* in Orient
’
Christianity is the greatest need of
China today, mid it can save that un- i
happy and chaotic land from its trou- j
hies if given an opportunity, it was j
declared by Rev. W. C. McLonghlin .
in a sermon Sunday night at the
First Methodist church on “China in ;
Convulsion." Rev. Mr. McGoughlin is j
a Presbyterian missionary in China. |
and has just arrived in this country'
on a furlough of a year. He spoke at i
the First Presbyterian church Bun-1
day* morning, and wjvs to have spoken
there again last night, but. because
of the heating plant in the church
failing, the service was transferred
to the First Methodist church, where
. the two congregations jointed to
i get her. The speaker was a classmate
j and a co-worker with Rev. VV. C.
j Camming, pastor of the Piesbvten ai >
, church, who Himself was a missionary
in China prior to his paattorate here,
and until his church board withdrew,
him when trouble bloke in China sev
, oral years ago.
Rev. Mr. Mclaiughlin gave what he
conceived to be the cause and the
1 cure of the Chinese chaos of today.
Among the, causes he listed Babel.
] meaning the many languages spoken
there; ballots, meaning the sale and
purchase of votes-; bigots, including
the students; bandits; bosses, mean-.
: ing military dictatorship: bootleggers
of opium and the bolshevist menace. j
; As a cure he gave the blood of Jesus 1
1 Christ, .moaning the ChtUfau n|
; ligior. He*said the League of Nations
if't 'presented ait united front, could
work miracles toward restoring or- ]
der, but that would not give the na
tion the Christian character and prin
ciples that are so essential for it.
Just as China is most willing to
accept Christianity, the church buck
at home is the most unready and the
most unwilling to support missionary .
effort there. He said China was ready
for Christianity if only- it were offei
ed to them.

feelingly of th e influence that his for

launched into one of the best address,

His subject was “The School of the
Future.” He suggested that the first
thing needed was for all to get a bet
ter conception of what education really
is, that some still clung to the idea
that education means only the Tturee
R’s; that it had no relation to voca
tional training; that everything not
absolutely essential, such as music
and art should be done away with in
the course of study.
The progressive idea of education
was to provide for all the needs. Edu
cation was the gTand total of all ex

include the Best Health program, so

best types of citizens, development of

the needs of individual pupils.
Third. Our people need a higher
legaid for relative values - and ?spe
cialiy in this time when curtailment
is so necessary along so many line*
,we should be able to determine which

he mentioned that as we already have
a fine system of goo droads suffi

of work could be curtailed in prefer
ence to some other things. Those
