G. W. Turley, tho ooal merchant, is in receipt ot tbe following letter from his daughter Mi-s
Maude Turley, a missionary Id
Sooth China, dated Liucbowfu,
Kwangsi, So. Chios, March |21,
1925, and wbloh makes interest
ing reading:
Dear Friends io the Homeland:
Hero I om again  in  this  for
away land on the opposite side ot1
tho globe from  you folks.   The
laud is juat as opposite   in   every
wsy too.   We call it the   opside
down land, as it seems to os that
everything is jost backwards bere
to the way it is  io   America.   I
think' I will jost Jot yoo down  a
few contrasts.   I can't   begin  to
take time or space   for   near all,
but jost a tew that come to mind.
For instance,   wben   someone is
dead here, instead of everything
being very quiet tbey have a Chi
nose band come  and   keep  up a
continual  noise—I  can't call it
music—-until tbe funeral and then
they also march ahead of the procession to  the  grave.   It always
reminds me more of a circus than
a fuoeral.
To read Chinese books you be
gio at the baok sod road to tbo
front. The Chinese pupil turns
his baok to the teacher to recite.
Tho Chinese pupils all study oot
loud aod so instead ol a quiet
school you have a regular bedlam.
Oor American teachers wonld bo
driven to  distraction  in■AfgMtj*   ^

There ts oo government, and so
thoy jost take from the people
whst they want,%nd to keep them
from   looting  tbsy  provide for
them.
In spite of all tbo ioregoiog, we
are glad to be baok in China again
and very hsppy in oor work for
the Lord.   It  is a real pleasure
• aod joy to go - oot  tbroogh their
dirty, filthy streets and into their
dsrk,dingy aod comfortless homes
agaio sod tell Asm the message
of tbo Gospel of Josos  Christ, a
message that io the power of God
onto salvation to a'l who will believe.   It is  surely  worth while
wheo yoo see God take some of
these poor souls that   have  beeo
bound by tho devil and transform
thorn into happy Christians.   We
had the joy   of bearing a man's
testimony who bad been an opium
smoker aud a gambler all his life
Just last evening, and ho told how
wonderfully tbe Lord had broken
the chains tbst bound   him   and
set bim free.   He is ooe ot  oor
colporteurs and through  hia conversion another family, the entire
family, became Christians.   Yes,
I am glad . tho  Gospel   has  ths
power lo lift souls    from  tbo
depths, and so It is iodeed a real
joy and privilege to be ao ambassador for the King of Kings.   We
need yoor prayers that we shall
be able to rescue maoy more wbo
are now bound by tbe devil and
are bowing dowo to gods of wood
and atone tbat have oe power to
help them.   Ten who M bad
