Excerpt from The Sons of Han: Stories of Chinese Life and Mission Work Book for young people, with plenty of pictures and stories, was asked for; and these pages of missionary commonplaces are the result. The idea throughout has been to give an account of some of the phases of Chinese life and of mission work among this great people. With a field so wide in which to range the difficulty is altogether one of selection. Child-life is so fascinating a subject that these pages might easily have been filled with stories of children and their ways. Folk lore is an inviting study, and material for it abounds, yielding many aweird story. To describe fully the different branches of our mission work in Central China would, perhaps, not have been the best way to introduce the young folk, for which this little book is intended, to the study of a great people of whom the missionary can truly say that the more he knows them, the more he finds in them to love. The writer has taken a few of the more prominent aspects of Chinese life as the missionary sees it, and sought by pen and camera to bring them before his youthful readers, in the h0pe that seed of interest may be sown that will in years to come Spring up and yield fruit to the saving of the Sons of Han.
