YF “After graduation Miss Tsai declined a’ number of flattering offers as teacher, Y. W. C.-A. sec- retary, etc., in order to return to Nanking for missionary work. She has shown admirable organiz- ing ability and has a winning personality. She has stirred up the women of our congregations in and near Nanking to an unheard-of liberality in support of the pastor and other local church-work, as well as to personal work on the part of many of the women. She is now interesting them in home mis- sion work, and a Chinese woman missionary has actually been sent to Hunan under the support of our women at Nanking. “Miss 'l'sai is well known throughout the govern- ment schools for girls and young women. She gave some time to teaching in one of the government normals, with the result that quite a large number of the girls were converted and desired to give themselves to Christian work. ‘The vice principal of the government normal has herself become a Christian and is giving herself to missionary work at perhaps one-third the salary that she formerly received from the school. Miss Tsai was asked to accompany the party of personal workers who visited a dozen or more large cities in China at the time of Dr. Eddy’s meetings last spring. Dr. Eddy and others of the party said that not only was Miss Tsai the best qualified for the kind of personal work they wished to have done, but she was the only one they knew of available for this service at the time. “Tt is such workers as this whom we expect in increasing numbers from our thorough Christian training in higher educational institutions.” Important Notice.
