Missionary Survey As An Aid To Intelligent Co-Operation In Foreign Missions

CHAPTER VI

In one school something approaching to a revolution was produced by the constant care and attention of a doctor.

Phthisis, which had been a continual source of trouble and weakness, was reduced considerably, and the whole work and tone of the school improved enormously.

If medical missionaries and educational missionaries always realised that they were engaged in a common work, this experience would be almost universal.
