THE BISHOP'S LETTER.

AT SEA. February 14th, 1912. DEAR MR. CooKE, I must get olf a letter to you this mail or you will be p!Jblishing a number of R.D.Q.P. without a letter from me. I meant to have sent you our accounts With this letter. hut I have come away withou~ the books and must. therefore, wait to send them till I get back, and I fear that will be just too late for next week· s mail. It was not long after I sent you my last letter that I went off to. the Durhar. We were a curiously mixeid company., There were representatives of the Local Government, the large trading firms and professions, together -with Burmese officials, Shan chiefs and their followers. We were all packed into a steamer formerly belonging to the Bibby Line, but recently bought by a rich Chinaman in Rangoon to run between Rangoon, Singapore and China. A special train took us from Calcutta to Delhi, and there we divided into two camps : the Burmese and Shails going to one, and the Europeans to another. You have read probably as much as you_ want to about the Ourbar itself. It is only in its religious aspect that I need speak of it. Seven of the Bishops were present, and I daresay you have seen a picture of our procession at the State Service ~:m Sunday, when all the British troops were paraded. This Service was a wonderfully imposing sight, but the men did not join in it with their voices. If they had the effect would have been truly wonderful. As it was. the music was left to the large band and the choir of picked soldiers behind them. The King and Queen jo-ined ni.ost reverently in the Service. The sermon by the Bishop of Madras was excellent, and delivered so that a large part of the huge audience could hear it. The responses were read by two of the military Chaplains together, and the later prayers by the Bishop of Lahore in a voice that again covered a large part of the congregation. As the King was ·getting into his carriage to drive away he shook hands with the Bishop of Lahore and thanked him for arranging such an impressive Service. Later on he sent for him, with some others who had been resp·onsible for special parts of the Durbar arrangements, and presented him with a beautiful full length signed portrait of himself. Another impressive religious ceremony was the blessing of the colours of (I think) 8 British regiments. It was to some extent also a sad evidence of our religious divisions. Three of ,the regiments were English, and the colours of these were blessed by the Bishop of Lahore. Four were Scotch, and their colours were blessed by Presbyterian Chapiains. One was ail Irish regiment, and its new colours· were blessed by a Roman Catholic Bishop. Each had a service of exactly equal length to read. The voice of the Bishop of Lahore could be heard over the whole parade ground, and so could that of the Scotch Presiding Chaplain. The Roman Catholic Bishop could not be heard. But his words were in Latin, so they would not have been understood if they had been heard. The distinctions in appearance were interesting. The Roman Catholic Bishop, with cope and mitre, which he put on just for his. part of the ceremony, and took off immediately it was over; the Bishop of Lahore, in scarlet convocation robe, and preceded by his pastoral staff; the Presbyterian Chaplains, in Geneva gowns. · · Besides these public religious c.eremonies there were other opportunities of religious refreshment and w~rk. Among others present in the camp was Father Paul Ball, of Mirfield, who was in India in connection with the work of social pUrity in the Army. On one morning the Bishops and Chaplains gathered in "the Church Tent," and after a Celebration of Holy Communion, Father Ball gave us an excellent address on this arl of our work. Subsequently, the King sent the Bishop of Eahore a gracious message commending the work of " the League of Honour" (as the society for this purpose in the Army istnow called) and hoping for its development. Each Sunday in our Burma ·camp (there were two) services were held, such . .as are usual at home, except· that- in the evening the guests were advised to go to the "Mutiny" Church inside the Kashmir gate of Delhi. In this Church a very dear young brother of my own received his last. Communion before going out into the camp from which he was brought back to die, just at the time of the last Durbar. There, too, I had the pleasure of meeting again Miss Helen Jerwood, whose brother, Rev. Arthur )erwood. died so suddenly at Mandalay; and on one of the Sunday evenings I preached. Altogether it was an interesting experience and gave me the opp·ortunity of making friendly acquaintance with a number of our leading people here, for which I might otherwise have waited long, so I felt grateful for having been invited and brought such a distance without expense t I got back to Rangoon only late on Christmas Eve. Our Christmas Day services and gatherings were, I think, good and hopeful. After a ,full week or so in Rangoon, I went off to Mandai!'Y to consult with Mr. Garrad, Miss Patch, our kin!! friend Mr. Bertram rCarey who is cOmmissioner of Sagaing near Mandalay, and the Commissioner and Deputy-Com­ missioner of Mandalay, and one or two ladies, about the Children's Hospital scheme. Though we did not get all we hoped for in the way of unquestioning support, yet we got real sympathy and encouragement, enough to make us determined to go forward as we are able. After a few days at Mandalay, I journeyed down to Toungoo to visit the Paku Karen district with Mr. Menzies. 'Mr, Cowper Johnson met me there, and after an evening at Mr. and Mrs. Menzies house, which enabled me to meet all our workers at T oungoo, Mr. Johnson, Mr. Menzies and I started down the river to visit the villages. We had a good deal of rain during the first two or three days, and this rain meant serious loss to the villagers, whose paddy was just cut. But soon the rain passed and we had the usual delightful tramps over the hills and streams to Wathoko village where the Conference was to be held this year. At villages on the way we got the elders together and enquired into the religious and moral and educational welfare of the village, arranged for churches to be repaired or enlarged, and so forth. At the Conference itself I made a point of explaining to the people the Karen Pastorate Endowment Scheme. Mr. Levien has, with untiring labour, found out all about this fund, which had got into something of a muddle, and now we have the whole thing clear, and I told the people the fund was theirs and that they must ask about it and insist on seeing th~ accounts year by year, and on knowing how the money was being spent. It is not a very large sum yet, but it grows fairly steadily. It now stands at about Rs.l 0,000, of which the people have contributed part, the S.P.G. at horne part, and our local S.P.G. Council part. I want to aim at raising such a fund that half the stip·end of each native Oergyman can be raised from it. Current subscriptions ought to cover the other half, I think. These would depend on the clergy doing their duty thoroughly, and that is a good incentive. I was very anxious on this tour to see whether the trial and acquittal of Thomas Pellako had had any effect on the Kleebo movement, and especially whether it had strengthened it or not. So far as I could see it hAd had no effect "t all. The only development I noticed was that one at least of their places of worshiJ> had fallen into ruins, and that here and there a few o.f Thomas' followers were wishing to come back to the Church. The q-uestion of .discipline in this matter is a difficult one. So many seem to have followed him, hardly knowing what they were . doing. They would scarcely understand any difficulty being put in their way if they wish to return to their allegiance. Poor simple peoole-they h~ve been cruelly misled. The Conference ended by my confirming between 30 and 40 candidates. After the Conference, Mr. Johnson and I started back for Toun~oo. leaving Mr. Menzies tO continue his travels. We had to take two days over the journey as we would not pay the eXorhitant price demand~d by the boatman for takin'it us down the rapids of the Deiloh river. This meant •IHping in tJ e jungle for a night. We camped beside a stream. We had no tents and did not want them. The Karens with us made us excellent beds of .bamboo, which with our mosquito nets and plenty of wraps were all we wanted. It was very touching in the evening to hear the laughter and fun that had been going on round the camp· fires die down and the soft monotone of the choir boys and others drift across to us as they joined (quite on their own initiative) in a short evensong before lying down to rest. The contrast between the roughly-clad jungle men and the. obvious sincerity and devotion of their sounds as they claimed their right as sons of Goo to enter their Father· s presence in prayer was singularly touching, and made one feel anew the special joy of being allowed to minister to these simple people. Mr. Johnson .and I had various adventures in the course of riding Mr. Menzies' ponies during the last part of our journey (we had walked while on the hills). We had to negotiate streams with steep banks, and one or other of us was to be found anywhere but on our pony's back or on our feet at different critical points. That, however, was all jay for the one who was not in trouble at the moment, and we got in without broken bones. It was a delightful tour and filled me with hope for the work on that side. My next move was to leave by the Saturday evening train (which just gave me 2 hours.in Toungoo) for Yamethin. There I spent Sunday worshipping in the beautifully furnished little church, and finding good congregations. In the eveni"¥. I confirmed some railway men and others. On Monday, Mr. Clack, the railway Chaplain, and I went down the line to Pyinmana where I found the little church with several improvements in or about it. A porch ·has ·been added. The altar of oak from England, made by Mr. Trotman's father~in~law, is very handsome, and the whole appearance of the little church is helpful to worship. Unfortunately, most people belonging to the station were out, so we had only a few at our evensong. The evening saw me off to T oungoo again. I got in about midnight, and the next morning met Canon Cosgrave, who had come down after takin~ quiet days in Mandalay, to accompany Mr. Fisher and myself to the Bghai Karen conference, which took place within easy reach this year. Canon Cosgrave IS an old friend from Durham Diocese who has come out to work at Ranchi in Chota Nagpur Diocese. At the request of the Bishop of Durham he has retained his canonry. I invited him to .Pve us a retreat for clergy in Rangoon, and qui~t davs ·both in Rangoon and Mandalay for our other workers and lay people. Mr. Fisher, Miss Fisher, Miss johnson, myself and the Canon all went off by motor car to Thandaung-a European hill station above Toungoo. From there we walked out about 2 hours through the jungle to a village called Thabarper, where the Conference was to be held. We were lodged in a bamboo house cut into cubicles" and placed up above the village and near the bamboo Co11ference hall. There seemed to be a large number of people present. I was told that the number of visitors in the village was 950. One of my duties was to dedicat,e the new village church and bell. Another was again to explain the Pastorate Endowment Fund, and a third was to try to get the people to take more interest in their schools as they are very slack about sending their children to school. We had a pleasant two days there, ending with a Ccmfirmation Service, which (with much stammering) I managed to take for the first time in Karen. We had a delightful walk and motor ride back with a tremendous breakfast at Thandaung in· between. Canon Cosgrave much enjoyed his vision of our Karen WQtk. I brought Canon Cosgrave back to Rangoon with me, and we had our two days retreat partly in the little chapel at Bishopscourt and partly in the Cantonments Church close by. Most of the clergy were present, including the Archdeacon from Maymyo. I think we all felt that Canon Cosgrave's excellent addresses and spirit did us all good. Since then, one new move has occurred for which I want to ask all your prayers. I found that John Richardson's time at Mandalay was practically over. He is the boy who came for training from Car Nicobar. He has had 4 years in the school at Mandalay and nearly a year in the Government Normal School. Mr. Bathurst, now Chaplain at Port Blair, suggested to me that he should now go back to the island, and that. a missionary should accompany hi,m and remain for some months to set the work going really strongly. This was proposed to Mr. Whitehead, and I felt it was a great opportunity and should be taken. And he has actually gone, fitted out as well as we could, to spend some months on that island which has been the object of so much of our thoughts and prayers. He will be the only European there, and I believe no European has ever lived there before. Will you all pr;o.y that this venture may be truly blessed of Goo and that Goo will preserve our brave friend and give him back safely to his wife and to us. Mrs. Whitehead is staying with Miss .P~uitt at Shwebo, while Miss Mahon is on furlough. ·'' ·· I am now on ,m.y way to a meeting of Bishops in Calcutta which takes a week of my time. I get back just in time for· a Fancy Fair and Sale which is, .through Lady Adamson's kindness, being held in the Government House garden and Ball Room. I hope it will be a success as we are in sore need of funds still for the Maymyo Church (Rs.8,QOO needed at once to ~tart .the building), St. Philip's (which is also just starting and calls aloud for Rs.l5,000) and other work, too. Now I must stop, as we are arriving in Calcutta, and this must be posted. Yours always in Christ, R. S. RANGOON.

NEWS FROM THE FRONT.

The Rev. E. L.'Ciarke was delayed in South Africa by the severe illness of hiEi brother, but has now arrived, and is put in charge of Akyab. The Rev. N. K. Anderson has taken charge of the Bassein district. The Rev. C. V. Burder has taken up the work of Riverine Cha~ain with headquarters at Mandalay. The Rev. C. R. Bathurst is posted at Port Blair. The Rev. W. H. Waller has completed his term· of service at Mandalay, and has come home. The Rev. ]. S. Beloe, with Mrs. Beloe, are expected in March to take his place, meanwhile the Winchester Brotherhood are responsible for the work. The Rev. C. E. Garrad left for his furlough on February 17th. The Rev. T. Fisher and Mrs. Fisher will have started by now for their f.urlough. Miss Fairclough and Miss Mahon are also home on furlough. S. PHILIP's, RANGOON. The Bishop held a Confirmation of I 7 candidates on October 28th, and visited the Church the next day to con­ gratulate the congregation on having· raised the first instalm~~t of the sum promised for the new Church, and this without allowing any of the current accounts to suffer. Again on November 1st, All Saints Day, he celebrated at 7.0, and offered on the altar the bank book which represented the Rs. 6,515, alter which the Doxology was sung. S. MICHAEL's, KEMMENDINE. The Theological College. This is rather a pretentious title for w~t is at present a very humble institution, and the best excuse that can be made for the use of it is, that it implies and anticipates a time when there shall be numerous Burmese and Karen candidates for Holy Orders. Althoush this time has unfortun­ ately not yet arrived, there have been during the current year 17 students in residence. Of- these '6 eire Burmese, 8 are Karens, and 3 are Chins. The institution is supported almost entirely by special grants from England. The bulk of them come from S.P.C.K., but the sti,ends of'two students, are paid by the missionary society cf Christ Ch,urch, Lancaster Gate, and the Rickard Studentsj)ip, founded as a memorial of the devoted work o.f a former m!eJionary, supports one other catechist student. The course hsts three years, and at the end of his time. the student must, in the future, satisfy the Bishop· s examining chaplains before he niay receive a catechist· s license. _ At the half-yearly test examination held in December, Tun Kyaw, the Rickard Scholar, was first, and Chit Tway, one of the Lancaster Gate schc>lars, was third. Kyaik,lat. Although we have small churches and schools at Mingaladan and Htaingon, the bulk of our Burmese Christians live in villages in the neighbourhood of Kyaiklat. The most prosperous community is settled at Kalayat. During the past year, they have built themselves a church, the S.P.G. con­ tributing one-half of the cost. The church is built of wood. It has two stories. the lower one being used as a school. The little settlement of about ten houses is entirely Christian, and the people are mostly occupied in cultivatimz the 80 acres of paddy land which is their private property. They have formed themselves into a co-operative credit society which will, doubtless, aid them in developing the habit of thrift. T alaing Karens. During the past year, there has been a strong movement amongst these people towards the Church. 530 have already been baptized, and there still remain about the same number of ·enquirers. Conferences have been held at various centres and most of the villages have been visited by both European and native clergy ·and catechists. At Hmawhi, a huge Nat temple has been demolished, and the materials will be used to build a church and school. Excellent wooden churches have been built in more than half-a-do~en villages without any assistance whatever rrom the society, and the people are prepared to support their own catechists and teachers. Six young Karens are being trained as catechists and are partially sup·ported by their own people. We need a new European missionary who will spend the whole of his time itinerating among these people, and if he is to do this work effectively, he must be provided with a motor launch in the same way as the Roman priests of the district are provided. G. F. 5. Lady Adamson, wife of the Lieutenant-Governor, has kindly consented to be President of the G.F .5. in Burma. A Diocesan Council has been formed, and has held its first Meeting at Bishop's Court. The plans discussed foreshadow some important improvements and .developments~ 5. MIC!jAEL's ScHOOL, MAYMYO. This scho61, for )::nglish and Eurasian girls, · is managed by the Sisters of the Church (Kilburn), and numbers 132 scholars, of whom 54 are boarders. There are good buildings and accommodation for 50 boarders, the extra ones being in the Infirmary which, happily, is little used for sick cases. Last year a laundry and cowhouse were added to the out·premises. Hopes are entertainelcl of building a Kindergarten Training College. Examination and inspection reports are very satisfactory. One girl won the Coplestone Prize, &warded annually to the scholar who stands first in Religious Knowledge in the Church of E!!8land High Schools. The teachers and elder girls' have joineld a G.F.S. branch, and a junior Division has been formed in the School, and numbers about forty members.

RELIGIOUS TEACHING IN EUROPEAN SCHOOLS. The Rev. G. H. Seeley during last October and November visited the eight Church Schools in the Diocese, and examined the children in Religious Knowledge. 263 were. examined, an increase of 60 and I 05 on the two previous years. The report of the work is very satisfactory. · The Diocesan Girls' School at Rangoon, S. Michael's School, Maymyo, and S. Matthew's, Girls' School, Moulmein, receive special com- mendation. · 10 LETTERS FROM BURMA.

From Rev. W. G. White, Chaplain at Moulmein :­ /an. 1st, 1912 . . . . My tour, this time, had to begin upon S. Stephen's Day, so that I might catch the boat in time to return to Moulmein before the schools re.open . .. Since April I have been tied up as Head Master of the Boys' School. Kinch came out, at my request, for this; but he was, by a series of accidents, hitched on to S. Augustine's -where he is settling down to good work. I had to dismiss the man who came t.o join us in his stead; and no one was found to fill the vacancy. At last we hear of a man from S. Augustine· s (Mr. Ellis Bishop), and we look forward to his arrival at the end of January. The lateness is unfortunate,. as school re-opens em 17th. S.nith. of the Diocesan Boys High School, is letting us have Down : so both of the Teaching Brotherhood will be in Moulmein. \Ve should like to see this Brotherhood strengthened. Although the S. M~tthew" s Boys School was opened only last January, we have 78 boys. We hope to reach 100 some day. I want to see this accom_plished before March, 1913-the date of the termination of my 5 years" agreement. · "This boys' school is the only Church of England boys" school outside Rangoon. We ought to have a chain of these schools throughout Burma; but, somehow or other, we are much behind in our work. . We have now the task of raising Rs.50,000 for this new boys" school. We need Rs.l3.000 to complete the purchase of the property, which we have taken over; and we must put up new buildings. .Our present buildings· are too cramped and very unsuitable-low, dark and stuffy. ""One ol my fellow-passengers is Mr. F. Noei-Pator. Director-General of Intelligence, India. He has made a few useful suggestions in -connection with the development of the Mawlten Industrial Mission."

F~om the Rev. G. Whitehead:- "S.P.G. MISSION, PROME. January 27th, 1912 . .. As you_ know I am generally away from Prome-out in the jungle-f<>r the great p·art of the cold and hot seasons; and this last wet weather. I have been (most of my time) in Kemmendine and Mandalay for the revision of the Burmese Prayer Book, and in Maymyo for the revision of the Burmese Psalms (B. & F. B. Society's work). 11

"[ do not see Luke Shwe Baw"s name as a catechist student in training at Kemmendine, and supported by Edenbridge, in the new number of the R.D.A. Paper. Some few months ago Shwe Baw's eyes gave him a good bit of trouble, and I was afraid he would have to give up his course of training at Kemmendine; but I believe he is now all right. "On December 22nd, I got back from a short tour in the jungle; on the 24th and 25th, I had five services and sermons (though the congregations-whether Burmese or English-are always small in Prome), and on the 26th I went off for sixteen days into the jungle, maiuly to the villages in the Padaung Township, where we have most of our few Chin Christians. Yesterday (Friday) I got back from a twelve days tour in the jungle, and on Sunday I go to Rangoon for the retreat, which is being arranged, and after that, on Iily way back, take some Burmese villages (with the hermit), where C. R. Purser has baptized a few people, "My wife is staying at Kaubalu with Miss Fay. It is very pleasantly cool there at this time of the year; and when it gets hot (about the end of February) she will go to Maymyo or to Anisakan (which is only a few miles from Maymyo).· "When the school at Shwebo re-opens after the wet weather, she will go for sqme time· to assist Miss Druitt in her superintendence of the girls' school there, while Miss Mahon is away on furlough. Of course, my wife will go as an honorary worker. So it hardly looks as if we shall see much of one ·another this year.''

WoMEN's WoRK AT MANDALAY. ["The women's ·Work at Mandalay is opening out and prospering greatly. but the danger has been very real that it shouLd have to be closed for lack of regular support. The S.P.G. are unable to increase their grant, and the Bishop· has been compelled to make himself personally responsible. Seeing that for 35 years this Mission was " lop-sided," to use Bishop Montgomery's term, that is to say, had work for men arid boys but none for women and girls, now that so hopeful a be_ginning has been made to make good this very serious difficulty. we must pray and work that it may be placed on a per.manent basis. It is to be noted that Miss Patch is compellel:l to ask for an honorary worker, because the funds will not allow of the support of the helper which she most urgently needs." A.M.K.l ]2

WINCHESTER MISSION, MANDALAY. February 17th, 1912. MY DEAR MISS KNIGHT, Your brother advised me to write quarterly letters about the work for any of our kind helpers in England to see, so I think I must address my first one to you. Mr. Garrad has gone home on furlough, and though I think we all feel we shall miss him and his ready help dreadfully, we equally feel it was high time for him to go. Mr. Edmonds is undertaking Town Chaplain's work for 5 weeks· until Mr. Beloe arrives, and Mr. Garrad is very busy before the· annual school examinations. Miss Watson, too, is just off on furlough, and her sister is very kindly keeping me company till next October. I had an interesting visit from one of our Tamil women to-day. She tells me that her father who lives near Nazareth, South India, is 100 years old, and her mother about 95. He can walk 15 miles without a stick and can read and work still. As a lad he apparently grew to believe in Goo -but not in our Saviour. He used to break up Hindu images and temples and, in consequence, -had rough treatment. When he was 18, he had cholera badly and says that Our Lord Himself appeared to him and told him to read Isaiah !iii. and S. John xv., and ever since then he has believed fully and worked hard as a Catechist. He and his wife were the only Christians in their village, and every day they sang hymns together. At last two more joined them and when the number of Christians had grown to 10 they built a church, or .. temple .. as she called it, aDd now there are 500 Christians. It is rather a wonderful story. I suppose ptobably no one else in modern times has worked actively for Christ for 82 years consecutively. Our little girl from the village of Bodalet, Mary Na Hsoo, is developing into a good and intelligent little Christian, and spends most of her holidays teaching her mother what she has learnt with us. We do our best not to spoil the children or make them English, and they all sit on the floor at low desks for lessons and for food. However, I always feel a little anxious as to whether Mary Ma Hsoo will settle happily as a teacher in her own village, so I asked Saya George to find one or two more children to come here so that they can all go back together and feel less lonely. We have a little Service of Intercession on Mondays now­ the children write down petitions and thanksgivings on Sundays on slates, and some are very thoughful and earnest. The bahies of 4 and 5 "thank Goo for their dolls," etc., and one little Eurasian whose hair is now cut in Burmese fashion thanked 13

Goo her hair had been cut so nicely. Only one child failed in her exams. last year, and she prayed that Goo would give her a mind to learn, which I thought very touching. Now I am wondering how to suggest self-denial for Lent-they are very young and have few pice to give, so I thought 1 would suggest their .spending 2 or 3 minutes every day in the play~ hour saying a short prayer. I find I have to do the suggestingp but I don't do more and leave it to them to follow or no. I wonder if you have ever heard of old Ma Hsoo, an old Christian woman who was baptized I think in Mr. Whitehead's time. She came to borrow 4 Rupees for taxes and as she spends pice very often on touching little offerings for us, I gave her 2 Rupees and lent her the other. She explained that it was owing to a bad tamarind season that she was obliged to borrow. You will be amused that her profesoion (she is old and a little bent)" is dimbhjg_ tamarind trees and selling the fruit ! Miss Watson, Mrs. Whitehead and Miss Fay have just been for a jungle trip lfor 12 days' preaching with a magic lantern-they seem to have had an interesting time. and in some places people seemed very attentive and anxious to learn. We have 21 boarders now and 52 children in all. We have bought a site for our hospital and a small one near by for a day school which we propose to build as soon as possible. On the hospital site is a house which we can ·utilize for our boarders, so that they will be all under supervision at night; and we can manage with fewer servants than with two entirely separate establishments, when the hospital is built. Our great need is an honorary worker-a practical person, fond of children, willing to do all sorts of odd jobs. or else the maintenance· of such a person who is not a-ble to be honorary. I am just olf to Saya George's house. His son Peter is going to ··exchange rings .. with our Burmese teacher, i.e., .. a formal betrothal." He is most sensible and not anxious to marry for three years till he has taken his degree. Yours very sincerely. A. G. PATCH.

A GREAT DEVELOPMENT. [The "Mission Field" has printed Mr. Purser's report of his ·month's i:our among the Burmans who are followers of the Hermit, and we trust all our members will make a point of reading it. The following letter giveJS an account of the not less striking movement among the T alainv Karens and speaks for itself. These two movements are by far the most striking and hopeful that our work in Burma has seen for many years. 14

I believe that before the end of another I2 months there will be reinforcements, but if so we shall be faced with the fact that there is no money available for their support. It is aiain another call to us to increase the help we send.-A. M. K.J

January 25th, 1':112. MY LORD, I am now making my way back to Kyaiklat after spending a month with Po Sa among the T alaing Karens. I hardly know what to say : it all seems so extraordinary. lt is not a year yet since we began active work amongst them, and ten villages which I have visited this tour have built a church and have regular services. In most of the villages, the children have learnt our hymns, and in many· they can also sing the Venite; T e Deum, Magnificat, and Nunc Dimittis. The continual cry has heen, ..Send us a teacher, send us a teacher.'' Every village the cry has been the same, and every time my reply has been the same, ·"Wait." How. long they must wait I cannot say. If I cou'd only get someone to come and take charge of the school at Kemmendine I would go to them at once and live among them. At present I must spend a few days of every month at Kemmendine to help my brother, who, when I go out, is absolutely alone. During the last four months our work at Kemmendine has extended in a most wonderful manner. My last letter will have told you this. And now there is this great problem of the T alaing Karens. I have now been through most of their district and begin to realize what a great problem it is. They must have teachers, and the teachers must be T alaing Karen. But how are we to train them~ In two months' time we are having Conferences among them. It will be at this time . that we hope to settle what is to be our future attitude towards them. Is our centre of work to be at Kemmendine or Kyaiklat? Or can a man be found who will settle among them? There will be three Conferences: (I) at Bourne, (2) at Taglai, (3) at Myago. If the Bishop can arrange, the date fixed is April 12th-19th. Remember us all at this time. I do hope that by now you are g~tting strong again. We were all grieved to hear that you have been so unwell. Po Sa sends his greetini

From Miss Pearson :- "S. MARY's S.P.G., RANGOON, HtGH AND NoRMAL SCHooLs . .. These schools have a larger number of sCholars than any other Church of Eililland School in the province, except S. John's College, S.P.G .. for Boys. The number on the roll at the present time (December, 1911) is 426, . of whom 143 are boarders. Among the boarders Christian children predominate, there being only 34 Non-Christians among them. Among the day scholars the proportion of Christians to non-Christians is naturally not so large, though all receive Christian instruction daily. There are 13 resident and 5 non,resident teachers, besides the four English lady-missionaries. "The Institution really includes four schools, the High School which is situated ip the old building in Canal Street, and the Anglo-Vernacular Normal School, the Vernacular Normal School, and the Practising School. which are all three at present housed in the new Normal School building at Kemmendine, though it is hoped that soon another building in the Kem­ mendine compou':'d maf be built. so that the Anglo-Vernacular and Vernacular sides o the work may be separated. Many of the boarders are 011phans ·or children of very poor Christian parents, and are taken in free. Th~re are over 60 of such children who pay nothing at all, ·besides others who pay a merely nominal fee. The cost of supporting some of these children is kindly undertaken by friends in England. £6 a year is the sum required to support and educate a child. The number of girls training as teachers in the Normal Schools is 30. In the Anglo-Vernacular branch there are both Burmese and Eurasian girls. When their course of training is completed, they pass out as teachers to various European or Anglo­ Vernacular Schools, or remain as teachers in the High School or Practising School, which are almost entirely staffed with old Normal students. In the last reJ)ort of the Inspector of Normal Schools, he describes this School as easily taking the first place in the Province, and for three consecutive years every student has passed the Government examination. Grants from Government pay a large part of the salaries of the Normal teachers, and stipends for \he supJ)ort of the Normal students. "In the Vernacular branch girls are trained as teachers for Vernacular Schools only. It is hoped that in this way a two-fold need in the mission will be provided for, (a) an OCCI!pation will be found for girls who are not suited for the more advanced work of teaching in Anglo-Vernacular Schools, but who may make excellent teachers in the Vernacular; (b) a supply of well-trained Christian girls, realizing, one may hope, something 16

of the real meaning of belonging to the Church, will be found to take their places as teachers in the jungle schools, where their inRuence will be much needed. Amongst the. ![iris in this department are some of the newly~Christianized 1 alaing Karens from the delta, in which district, which is in the charge of clergy of S. Michael's, Kemmendine, numbers of the villagers are asking for . Baptism and further Christian instruction. "All the deparbments of S. Mary's are worked and financed in connection with each other. The girls in the Practising School are sometimes interchanged with those in the Hi$h School, and in this and other ways it is hoped that the girls feel themselves to be all really one, although, for the convenience of the work, they are divided. "The great need both at Canal Street and at Kemrnendine, is more room. At CaQal Street the classes are so close, together that in some instances there is only just room to walk between them. This difficulty is met as far as possible, when it can be done, in verandahs and dormitories, but it is almost impossible for any class to be really undisturbed by another. One space only remains in the compound where an extension of one or .two rooms could just be built. Such an extension would be a great help and remains a great hope. At Kemmendine more room must be found to house the greater number of T alaing­ Karen girls, whom it is hoped to take in and to provide for their living separately in their own simple mode of life, which it is certainly advisable they should do. An almost greater need still is a new chapel. The room temporarily used, is more than crowded already by the boarders there, who are almost all Christians; and the room, besides heing most inadequate, is really wanted for other purposes. It is merely supplying as well as possible the temporary need till a more adequate and fitting school chapel can b"e built to stand, as it should. as the centre of the life of the Institution. All these improvements can readily be carried out as soon as enough money can be found. · "Miss Laughlin and two out of the three of her helpers are provided for by the C. W. W . ..The services and the supervision of the spiritual side of the work in all the schools is in the hands of the Honorary Chaplain, the Rev. H. A. Rawlinson, who himself undertakeo, besides all the services, the religious teachino: of the big Christian girls and Normal students, and is to be found every day. except Satur

as to leave the Chaplain free for Kemmendine and S. john' s, which is also under his care.

From Miss Fisher:- "S. LuKE's, MISSION, TouNGOO. Christmas Day, 191 I. "Since I came back from furlough, I've tried to get a !lift of some sort for the Church where the Conference is held. This next month I'm hoping to take what will make a dossal and frontal for Thabarpur Church. I have also some alms bags which came out from home. The pyx will be ready for 1912, when I may not have so much. "This has been a very busy weeic~ You may know that I send money home and Miss D. Fisher sends me out a box of things for Christmas. Tltis is generally supplemented by gifts from other friends, which help cr.nsiderably. This year the Tamil School made a difference. "I went round on Friday morning with tht: Durwan, carrying a pah full of treasures. For each iirl, a doll and a scrap book; for each bay, a toy or pen and a scrap book. They were delighted, it being their first experience. The Head Mistress is still honorary, but the Inspector is coming in February, after which I do hope the School will be registered. Then if Government gives three-eighths of a salary grant, we shall have to provide the rest, and I expect the Bishop will be asking S.P.G. for help. ''This year we asked a very good friend of ours to come in and, give away the presents to our boarders. I think we all enioved his visit. He sent me Rs.50 to help, and now the k;ddies are enjoying themselves. Rs.IO has gone on beef. It doesn't seem much for 80 people, does it? I am sitting in my room with I0 square feet of my roof off. · I have to sit in my topi. My house is going up splendidly. I ask all my friends if they will come to tea when it is finished. I wish there was news of help for S. Luke's. It is nice having Mr. Menzies back, but we do need men, and I could do with a fellow­ worker here, so that I might get out among the p·eople more. lt will come in time, I'm sure, and I am content to· wait. "Mr. Shields has just returned from Delhi and broul(ht me a dozen models of people in India. I wish they w:>uld make more in Burma. Miss James sent me a dozen little dolls to dress in the different costumes. It is a stiff job, and my best helper is Nau Tau (Eqnice), who has woven loongyis for me, though they are so tiny (the dollies). She has dressed me a Paku man and woman ·and is r.ow doing th~ Sgaw. IS

"] am looking forward to our Conference this y_ear because Canon Cosgrave is coming with us. I shall enjoy seeing a 'fresher' on the hills. Either Miss Selby or Miso Johnson will go, but I'm not sure which yet."

Letter from Rev. C. R. Purser :- "S. MICHAEL's, KEMMENDINE. "Our Conference this year was a great success. We had Mr. Whitehead, Mr. Pope, Mr. Cox, and Mr. Kinch with us. The Bishop also came over on one of the days to see us. I am sending a photo of clergy and c·atechists who were present. It was taken by Kinch. "With the boarders we are getting along splendidly. Although for the last three months the price of rice has been very high, yet we have been able to face these difficulties calmly, because of the magnificent help which we· have been receiving both from friends at home and friends 01,1t here. ''There is, however, one sad event to record. Our head boarder, Benjamin Mg Htin, has develope'd consumption. It was a great blow to us. We were expecting next year to pass him on to the Divinity School; but it has been nec-essary to send him away for a year to a drier climate. So at present he is stopping with Stockings at Shwebo. We all hope that he will return to us completely recovered. He is one of our most promising boys. I hope the people at Kettering will not forget him; I should be glad if they would make a special effort so that I can sepd him some extra nourishing foods . .. During my last tour, I found two Christian boys who were living where it was imp·ossible for them to get a Christian education. Their mother was dead; and they lived in a miser­ able little hut with their grandmother, age 80. The old woman was a dear old soul, so earnest and sincere. She was confirmed a year ago. When I -nt to see her she begged me to take the two boys away to school. But I could not do it. It is already as much as I can do to keep. the present number. If you know anyone who will be responsible for them, I will gladly go and fetch them to Kemmendine. I told the old woman I would do my best for them. I expect to visit there again towards the end of February. "I do hope you can find someone to take up these two boys. There are others I could write about, but thes.e two I particularly wish to take away from their heathen surround­ ings. The cost would be about £8 a year for seven years:·· 19 REINFORCEMENTS.

The Rev. E. H. Dunkley, B.A., Corpus Christi College, Oxford, Curate of S. Jude's, Hanley, in the Diocese of Lich· field, ordained Deacon 1909, Priest ·J910, sailed on the 16th February, for work in Burma. He is putting himself at the Bishop· s disposal to take up· whatever work he appoints. A Valedictory Service was held at S. jude's on February 5th, when the Bishop of Stafford, after an inspiring address, solemnly dismissed him to the work. The Bishop also cele­ brated the Holy Communion the next morning. The people of S. jude's presented Mr. Dunkley with a set of Com.munion Vessels and a Font for use in his work. By the same boat w~t the Rev. P. H. Kirkham, Vicar of Kirkby Stephen, who has volunteered to go out and take Rev. T. Fisher's place while he comes home on furlough. Mr. Kirkham worked 7 years at S. Luke's, T oungoo, and so will find the work and people familiar. Mr. Hart sails on March 28th to resume his work as Head Master of Christ Church Royal School, Mandalay.

OUR ILLUSTRATION.

We are glad to have a memento of Bishop Montgomery's visit to Burma. The photograph shows him at T oungoo with Bishop Fyffe and .the Rev. T. Fisher, and Mr. Shields, the School Master. The group is to illustrate the different races and tribes being taught in the Anglo-Vernacular School at S. Luke's, T oungoo. In the back row the first two from the left are Karens of different tribes; No. 3, a Tamil; No. 4, an Armenian; 5 to 8, Tamils. A Burmese girl stands beside Mr. Fisher with a Chinese boy in front of her. Next· to him is an Eurasian, the other four seem to be Burmese or Karens of other tribes. 25 BISHOP KNIGHT'S APPEALS.

RANGOON DIOCESAN ASSOCIATION GUILD OF INTERCESSION AND WORK.

The Guild has done g:ood work this year. From the country and London branches come satisfactory reports of numbers keeping fairly well up, of Sp·ecial Services and Sales held, or of work done for the London Sale, besides the £8 3s. 6d. collected for the Kemmendine Fund. Newton Heath-always our most keen Branch-has lost one member by death; as has also the General List of those who are on the Hon Sec.'s book. All the rest at Newtdn Heath are faithful to their membership, and in the Service of Lntercession and at the Corporate Communion. Mr. Menzies was able to visit them twioe and preach, and they are h~ing to have a small Sale after Easter for his new Printing Press for T oungoo. Alton sent up £1 7s. Od. for O.O.M., and its members keep steady. Greenwich sent 8s. lOd. for O.O.M. from the Box at the Working Party. Norwich contributes lOs. Od. te> the General Fund, and Cheltenham lOs. Od. for Kemmer(dine and all these 4 Branches, as usual, sent articles for the Londe>n Sale. From Pendleton, the new Hon. Sec.-Miss Hockmeyer -sent articles for the Sale, and £1 13s. 4d. as the result of a small local Sale. The Lonaon-on/y have a larger subscription total this year. Mrs. Seeley, wife of the Chaplain at Shwebo, has broken fresh ground near her home at Malvern, by starting a small Working Party, for the London Sale. Miss K. Hole, the new 26

Secretary· for Exeter Diocese, sends word of a Children's Working Party at Broadwood, Kelly, N. Devon, started by the Rector, Rev. W. Lovell. The General Secretary received I 00 Christmas gifts from the following:- Children's jack_ets. Dolls. Sampford Courtenay K.M. Work Party 12 14 Miss Hole, Exbourne K.M. Work Party 18 18 Mrs. Grey, Oxford Gardens 6 S. Stephen's, ?addington, K.M. 6 Bags 18 6 S. Stephen's, ?addington, G.F.S. Candi- dates 18 Toys (oarious). By the kindness of the Revs. F. Edmonds and C. R. Bathurst, all these were taken out free of expense, 8.nd the Secr.;tary has had most grateful letters from Shwebo, Mandalay, Moulmein, Toungoo, and Kemmendine about them. Six Sales were aided by grants from the General Secretary's store boxes, at-Greenwich, Taunton (2), Churchill, Oxon, and 2 in London, the Indian Church Aid and the G.F.S. in India and the Far East.
