gather for prayer and Bible study in the morning and the rallying point for the workers who spend the afternoon in witnessing for Christ in hamlet and village in the surrounding country.
Korea is a field of golden opportunity. Never was grain more ripe for harvest. Never has the Church received a challenge so insistent. The call for laborers, heroic and true, is more imperative to-day than ever in the history of Protestant missions. Had the Church sent more men and women of the type of the author of this book and his devoted wife, and of those who have been coworkers with them, our share of the task of evangelizing Korea would well-nigh be done.
I had the privilege of journeying with these faithful missionaries when first turning their faces to the Orient. I knew them later in their laborious and self-denying efforts; and now, when years of hard living but Christly endeavor have passed, I still thank God for the inspiration of the faith and optimism of their earlier missionary life, and for their zeal unquenched and the consecrated purpose unabated to this day.
Walter R. Lambuth.
