Never before in the history , of the church has there been such interest shown in this part of church work, nor has the attendance been so large as now. About one month ago the school was equally divided in numbers, one-half were placed on board a blue ship leaving New York i f for Japan; the other half are sailing ^ in a red ship. The former wears a , blue button as a badge; the latter, a red one. Every attendance by each !, member counts two miles on the jour- , i ney. Every new member brought in , by anyone counts fifty miles for his ship. Much interest" in manifested in ' the voyage. Each captain is expec- j tant of reaching the faraway port first.
