Then he went on to tell us of the recent martyrdom of one of our Chinese clergy, the Rev. М. T.

In conclusion, he reiterated the truth of the statement, “The blood of the martyrs is the seed of the Church” ; and said that in spite of the persecutions the Chinese Church will grow. He wants us to make Our religion worth while, even if we have to suffer for it. The Priest wishes to express his appreciation to Mr. Joseph Yap the Organist, for arranging the musical pro­ gram, and also to the following musical scions of the Church who contributed to the enjoyment of the evening, viz: Elizabeth Leong, Dorothy and Sybil I,o, Norra Soong, Norman Soong, Peter, Daniel and Jennie Ching. On behalf of the children of the Church I wish to thank the Woman’s Guild for their generous help which made it possible for us to have ice cream and cakes and other good things, which we'all enjoyed.
