the examina tion there would be the same number pass In the primary department the children begin with their ha or Japanese alphabet Then they are taught writing and reading Chinese characters and arithmetic In the High Common School they have ob jective lessons in science and moral stories teaching loyalty and filial duty Of course they keep on at the Chinese characters in this school and in the next alsoand if they go on as far as to graduate from the Imperial Uni versity in they will have been studying Chinese characters all the time and then may not know all of them In the middle school the jecte are mathematics drawing Eng lish conversation English literature principles of science Chinese litera ture moral stories and military gymnastic under military officers From the high

temples and the temple giounds There is a ten day festival at New then when the kite is well up in the air so as to pull hard they run the string across string of another boys kite and if the string is cut and the kite brought to the ground that kite is claimed as spoils of war by- tho owner of the successful kite opposite to my house is a large parade ground on which from my study win- Years Girls in brightest and I have seen dozens of boys out robes and gay sashes having their with their kites They are not allowed here in to attend any of the christian schools if religion is also taught to get help in their English as many the students do from the other schools Three normal school students come to my house in the afternoon once a week for instructions in the Bible- They told me that if they were to come to my regular Bible Class in our school the authorities might stop them but they are allowed to be out from 3 to oclock and they can call on me with out being in danger of trouble From the common school up girls are taught in separate rooms There is no coeducation here Girls are taught Chinese and Japanese ture moral stories principles of science by objective lesson and dress making housekeeping and kinder garten management The last that they may know how to care for and manage children so I was told by a teacher in a Higher School from whom I gained much information in regard to these things In the Higher Girls Schools Japanese music is taught and if some our western music lias been Chan flower in Japanese the Miss or Mr comes and Chan is for Miss This childs mother is very poor and it is nut often that the child new clothe But this summer she re a new dress and immediately that it was put on she would riot let her mother talk to her until she had first gone into the next room alone to thank God for having sent her the new pretty dress After her mother has asked a blessing on their food at meal time will put her fat little hands together and say Kami Arigalox which is her way of thanking God lor the Of another modest sweet little Jap anese girl with whom have become i I want to tell the juniors ago she came into our Sun day School here and for the fint time heard something of the wonderful story of the love of God and the life of Jeus She went home and re- icaled what she had heard to her parents and to iter grandmother who was a helpless invalid- She had a wonderful memory for a child of her years She was but five then and Sunday after she the Sunday School and then carried home the strange story The family were very devoted Buddhists and very much opposed to Christianity the old grandmother being very bitter against the Christians But the child inter ested them very much by what she told them and she was very anxious to go Bo she was allowed to go because she was a great favorite with her d sick grandmother who did not like to deny her anything that she wanted The old woman said that she knew the Christians were bad people but it could not hart the child to go and listen to such interesting stories Months passed and still the girl came and received her message and went home to be a preacher of Christ to her family she was quite unconscious of it After some time the grand mother died much happier by reason of the light that she had received in regard to the nature of God and what He had done to save her But that was not all The grandmother bad received no teaching but what the child had brought to her but the father and mother lost their prejudice against Christianity and began to come with San and in the course of time they both became christians and were baptized spring the older sister was baptized by Dr Carman when he was here so the whole family are now members of the church and happy christians as you would all say if you were to see them walking homo together from church or to call them in their home as I have done The father is recording steward of our church So in doing very things in a very quiet manner we may really be ac complishing great things for God Perhaps some preachers who preach eloquent sermons to great crowds have not been more used of God to lead to Himself than this little child who is but 1 years old at present and would blush and want to run hide if you were to suggest that she could work for God She is still as faithful as ever in her attendance upon the Sunday
