ly for a while. - -
This summer the Chinese staf^ had
full charge while the foreign doctors
were away. 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.
(
May God bless you each one richly

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.
