They were happy to re port everything fine when Miss Brad ley and I arrived the_/irst of August. The work was quite heavy for several weeks in July. As September draws near the sick ones are again coming in crowds. We are so happy that we are able to care for so many. Above all things we are glad to have the privilege of telling them about Jesus, their Saviour. You will rejoice with us that so many of them are eager to learn from the very first day. Our special hospital evangelists, Mr. Kuoh, Mr. Wang San and Mrs. Yu, are seen early and late in' the wards, in the private, rooms/ also in the chapel at the .front gate teaching and preaching. Miss Bradley tries to spend a part of every day with spec ial cases, reading tracts and Bible portions. Dr. and Mrs. Graham have their special work in the hospital too. We all try to do our part in witness ing as the opportunity presents it self. _ Our hearts were saddened over the deathTof one of our dear old faithful servant nurses, Ts’eng Nai Nai, who came to the hospital over fifteen years ago, and has helped with every phase of nursing, .\fter Our nursing school began in 1925, she still was our mainstay. The girls called on her for help in all the hard places. She worked often into th® night, never seeming to getltfed or cross. She was a very earnest Christian woman and often grieved for her son, w'ho’/fias wandered away after the pleasures of this world. (Please pray for hii»)T Now dear Ts’eng Nai Nai is at rest, rejoicing in the presence of* her Sa viour. The country evangelists will soon be out in their fields of work. How happy we are that the “heart doors” of the people are open for the mes sage of salvation. The Spirit is truly: working in the hearts of many. Prayi that the harvest may be great. Pray,! too, that the Lord of the harvest will j thrust forth laborers, both foreign. and native, in the many harvest fields.

' ' Tnere’s always something to worry about. This will be another stretch out matter. The -old farmer will stretch-out in' the bad while his wife runs the picker and cooks the meals and does the wash, I expect it will take an.army of cotton pickers to tote the picked cotton to the house, pull the picker out of the ground, and| keep the nuts tight on it. Anyway,; there’s going to be plenty jobs for^ feverybody even if some of us have^ to fish for a living. Personally, it,' won’t hurt me: I never make over 3 bales to the plow, and I usually move off before it opens so’s my landlord and creditors can do the picking. Rev.
