Miss Abby G. Willard of Colchester, the president, wes the presiding officer and conducted the opening devotional exercises. These weer followed by the reports of the several branch secretaries, who showed much fruit in this branch during the past year. $5,431.45 in Receipts. Miss ‘Anna C. Learned of New Lon- don, branch treasurer, gave a most en- couraging report. The total receipts from 40 out of the 42 auxillaries be- longing to the branch were $5,431.45, a gain of $400 over the previous year, and a better showing than had been made for several years. The appor- tionment for the year had been fully met by the churches in eastern Con- necticut. Mrs. A. V. DeWitt, the as- sistant treasurer, has charge of the money used in the home work and gifts for the golden anniversary. She reported a total for the year of $255.71 used in this way, besides the previous amount sent to the foreign field. Six- teen auxiliaries contributed to this home fund. Review of the Year. Mrs. Harvey M. Briggs, the recording secretary, gave a review of the vari- ous meetings and activities of the senlor members of the branch during the year, and Miss Elizabeth F. Pul- len, junior secretary, gave a good re- port ‘of the work emong the younsger members. She spoke of the definite policy with which they began the year and the four things the junior secre- tarles aimed for in their work. In the educational line, the curio trunk proved useful, and Alcha Camp is_ another great ‘aid. The work has been ex- tendeq during the year fully 10 per cent. More lookout committees are wanted. Work in 41 junlor societies was briefly outlined and showed gifts of $537.28 to the cause of missions. Workers Supported Abroad. Miss Nancy E. Lucas, corresponding secretary, told of the workers sup- ported abroad. This has been a year of great anxiety and while the workers could not be recalled and things have gone on much as before in a way, still the lace industry has had to be given up, medicines have been requisitioned for the army in Turkey and hospitals used. Many workers, now in this coun- try, have been unable to return, and difficulties and trials have beset the work in_various stations. Miss Willard recalled the difference between this meeting and the report of the fifth annual. Then the branch was supporting ouly three mi; i One of these, Miss Northampton, Ma 40th and later off Terrible Plight of the Syrians. Another was Mrs. Martha Raynolds of Van, Turkey, a native of Lyme, Conn., and her husband, Dr. George C. Raynolds, kept from Van by the war, read a letter describing the_terrible flight of the Syrians from Urunirah, Persia, when the Russian soldiers were withdrawn in January and the Kurds descended upon the people. The only protection at all was in the Amer- ican and French missions. Much needs to be done for these thousands of refu- gess. Election of Officers. Miss E. P. Woodward of 'Willimantic read the report of the nom ting committee, which was_accepted, and these officers elected: President, DMiss Abby G. Willard, Colchester: vice presidents, Mrs. J. M.

Miss Lucas read a letter from Mrs, John Howland of Mexico and several notices were given. Mrs. B. P. Learn- ed played for the hymns during the morning. During the noon hour luncheon was served in the dining room, the social committee being Mrs. Henry T. Arnold, chairman, Mrs. John F. Rogers, Miss Alice W. Cogswell and Mre: Leonard O, Smith.

Butts, Mrs. Willam H. Allen, Miss Laura Subert and Miss Cecil Crowell. Mrs. Leonard W. Bacon was in charge of the general arrangements for the meeting. Miss Loulse C. Howe planned the floral decorations. Afternoon Session. The afternoon session conven 2 o'clock and the devotlonal searies was led by Rev. Marian H. Jones of Canterbury. The auxiliary report was Dpresented by Miss Emmeline C. Smith and the offering was then ~ taken. Angel Voices Ever Singing, was sung and Dr. George C. Raynolds, of Van, [Turkey, followed with a stirring mis- slonary’ address. Another hymn, In Heavenly Love Abiding, was sung and a very interesting address on A Trav- eler’s Impressions, was given by Miss Clara P, Bodman, a member of A. B. C. F. M. Deputation in 1914. Miss Bod- man’ spoke as follows: A Traveler's Impressions. From the multitude of impressions, dazzling and bewildering, that crowds our memories in the all-too-short visit in the east, two or three stand out very, clegyly. ~The first one'ls.ihe Reports Made.at 40th Annual Meeting of Eastern Connecticut _ Branch—Auxiliaries Contributed Over $400 More Than a Year Ago—Miss Abby G. Willard of Colchester Re- elected President—Miss Clara P. Bodman Gave Report From Trip to Mission Nations. splendid_quality of our missionaries there. We met hundreds of them and we found them both scholarly and spiritual leaders. One is alderman in a large city. One is the constant ad- viser to the governor of the pro¥ince. Many are trusted with large relief funés. It-is surprising, and amazing to find the variety of their work and the ability with which they meet their many-sided problems. We were en- tertained constantly in their houses, where we reallzed anew ‘their devotion and self-sacrifice. I beg you not to let your faith be unsettled if your friend comes back from,the east and tells you missions. are eocomplishing nothing. Probably she has only touch- ed at post cities and knows nothing of the permeating, yes, penetrating work of the Inland places. You and I may visit New York again and again and never imagine the consecrated lives given to immigrants on the east side. Not long ago a young woman returned from China, saying she had lost all confidence in missions. Why? Because she had met a missionary on the steamer who was selfish. ~Her heinous crime was, I believe, that she insisted on having a lower berth. Now, we deplore selfishness in any- one, ‘most of all in a Christian, but missionaries are very human, or on shipboard the morality of the best of us sometimes lapses! But is the standing of our U. S.qgovernment se- riously impaired becatse one consul makes a blunder, or even does a wrong? As a whole our missionaries do not call for a charitable judgment, but for unqualified admiration. And how badly we sometimes treat them! ‘We expect them to work without tools, to run schools without adequate grants, and to perform operations with fingers_stiff from cold. Oh, the pity of it, that we so often limit their use- fulness! Splendid Native Christians. Another vivid impression is the splendid body of native Christians. I had imagined them small detached groups here and there, but as we look- ed down on those great audlences at the time of the centenary we felt their power. The In- dians are intensely religious and the eager, happy = look in their faces I shall never forget. The story of their sacrifices, their long_journ thelr gifts to the Extension fand, read like the acts of the early apostles. One little group of very new Christians walked from Barsi, 130 miles awa singing and preaching as they came— this a country where Christ’s name had never before been heard. Footsore and weary tliey were after five days of tramping, but their enthusiasm was undimmed. ' I wish every member of our Woman's Board could have seen the audience of 1500 on Sunday aft- ernoon taking the communion, many of them converts within the year. Here in the country of rigld cast W] even a shadow defiles, th were sitting sire side, in memory of our Lord, one Father. Then I real- ized what a wonderful thing it was to reach and to bless the outcast, for his own race is powerless to help him. In Vadalon, a roval wel- come was awaiting us, half the vil- lage coming down the road to meet us, banners, arches, garlands up to our ears, the village band discoursing sweet music from instruments that must have dated from Gideon's time. At the church meeting the mavor, or patil, himself, a Hindu, made a touch- ing address. We were blind now we see; we were lame, now we can walk; we were deaf, now we hear. All this has come to our happy village through the missionary. Not for 40 years has any lawsuit been carried to the courts; we take all our troubles to the mission compound for settle- ment. It was at Vadala, when I had an unusual experience. A dear lit- tle 6Td lady seized my hand and sal, “Oh, I_thought I should see a Wo- man’s Boarder of Heaven, but I never dreamed of seeing you here.” The Dark Side. Now from what had these great congregations come? The dark side of the picture was at Benaces, where there are millions of gods, but not one that speaks of love. Where the most unholy holy men, theinr faces smeared with ashes and curious caste marks, pursue you for hours with a begging bowl; where temples are filled with monkeys and peacocks and deer. Where women can be seen kneeling before a sacred cow, putting garlands around her neck. (Think of worship- ping a cow!) Where there are thou- sands of pilgrims, reaching, searching for the truth and finding—monkey: finding temples with indecent symbol and most immoral priests. If any of your friends are fascinated with the beauty of Hindu philosophy, ask them if they have been to Benaces and have seen there its degrading effects on the masses of the people. At Calcutta is the great temple of Karlin, the patron saint of the city, the huge crowds near her statue, swaying, sroaning, crying—I shall al- way remember those awful sounds, and also the awtful sight in the tin: crouet, where the animals are slain, the pavement red with blood, for Kar- lin demands many goats! And I thought of Hosea.™ “For I desired mercy and not sacrifice, and the knowledge of God more than burst offerings.” Near Madusa we went to & very sacred temple, Tirs, floor swimming with milk from cocoanuts, broken be- fore idols, the black upper spaces fill- 1 with bats which swooped down upon our heads. Here the week before had come 100,000 pilgrims, strained, fanatical faces in that huge procession, the greatest possible contrast to the audience in the Madura church, the women with fine, strong faces; women who had done great things for God, but they showed transforming power of the Christlan faith. You can often tell a Christlan by the expression of his face. Dirt Everywhere. The Chinese people are more mate- rialistic. Confucianism is only ethical. Taverism is a debauched religion and Buddhism bears but a slight resem- blance to the pure and sincere aspira- tions of its founder. Hardly a priest knows the eight-fold path and the im- morality in connection with the tem- Dles is unspeakable. Here we find the greatest contrasts to the pilgrim crowds in India. At the large Confu- cian temple in Peking, the home of the sacred tablets, we saw not a single per- son except the watchman who un- locked the gate. The beautiful altar of heaven was silent and lonely the Snowy morning we were there. The only spot which suggested real relig- ious activity was at the woman's tem- ple in Tientsin, the only one in that great teeming city where women are allowed to go, and this was indescrib- ably dirty, the idols covered with can- dle grease and smoke from the burning Joss sticks. Pure religion and undefiled had no connection with that spot. The religious obscrvances are mainly left to the women, who are pitifully bur- dened:with.superstitution,-and thesmen drift into indifference or formelism or walting. . Especially for the women here are the bitter fruits of Confusian- ism, infanticide, foot binding, early marriages, concubinage, sale of wives and daughters, prevalence of_suicide, doplorable lack of education. Why ed- ucate? It is like weeding the fleld for the other man! In the interior there is no family meal, and g man would be ashamed to be seen talking to his wife. Here, too, as in India, how Te- sponsive théy are when the opportuni- ty comes, the eager women, middle aged and elderly, sitting about the ta- ble in the hall of enlightenment, study- ing feverishly, is one pleasant’ picture in my mind.’ Another is the gradua- tion of two women doctors from the Union Medical college in Peking as thoroughly equipped for their work as any young doctors in America, so the head physician assured us. These two dignified women In_ their caps and gowns had stirred all Peking for they were the first graduates in all north China. It was a great occasion. The American minister gave the address, the elite of the city were in the audi- ence, their curious Manchu hats bob- bing, their gay clothes making it a striking picture. And one of these girls came from a small out-station in our own misslon. She had found her chance. * Korea’s Native Christians. In China, too, there are large self- supporting churches, noble body of men and women—mostly men, and in Japan we all know the high standing and self reliance of our Kunuai church- es. But perhaps it is in Korea that the native church shines most gloriously. We went to the Sunday school of a resident church one beautiful Sunday morning. The men's Bible class was just coming out of church—only 800 of them—every man with his Bible under his arm, and the women’s class of 600 then took possession. We visited the younger departments and estimated that there were at least 2,200 in that school that day. And_there are 11 Christian churches in Pyeng Yang! Isn't this a magnificent Christian body? The eacrifices of these mative con- verts shame us in our comfortable world. The Indlan who had only one meal a day for a week that he might save something for the extension fund of the cemetery, the Korean who sold his one cow that he might help put a Toof on his church, the children of a poor Chinese village where the teacher gets only $3 a month, who were saving their pennies for the golden anniver- sary gift (and the jar was a heavy one). If we had more of their spirit there would be no lack either of gifts or of workers. In all this great body of bod always the power of Christianity that wrote these changes, a neve nding miracle. They have seen the heavenly vision and have been obedient unto it. And how eager they often are to tell others of ‘the vision! One of the se- crets, it seems to me, of the over- wheliing success of the great mass movement in northrn Indja is that ev- ery one who hears the gospel story is required to tell it to bring at least one other under Christian influence. An appealing incident connected with the centenary in Bombay was the plea of an old man who had come from Salim- pore, 600 to the north, to beg the American Board deputation to send a Christian teacher to his own town. He was 83 years old, he was poor and he was dlind, but he wanted that teacher with an intensity that few of us feel in connection with out spiritual life. He said: “Like Simon of old, I shall not die unt{] my blind eyes have seen the coming of the Lord in Salimpore.” He gave us these strings of old Indian coins tkat we might not forget him and his need. After the great sorrow in Shanghai when ™Mrs. Capen and Miss Capen bravely decided to go on the_journey, it was touching to see the pofound impression their cour- age made on the women of China and Japan. Again and again they spoke of it, that they could go on without faltering, even with cheerfulness, showed so wonderfully the power of the Christian faith. It was e tremen- dous lesson to some of those in the morning of religion. Dependence Upon Prayer. Another deep impression as we jour- neyed from one missionary home to another was the dependence upon prayer. At many of the mission sta- tions the daily prayer meeting w held at noon, where one was carried straight to heaven by the earnestness and power of the petitions. Prayer at noontide enriching the earth. And the meetings of the native Chris How those eastern women pray, f s well as for those nearer. They ften intellectual, sweet mothers it is a in Israel, but showing a simple childlike th, and an ease in talking to God t shames some of us who stumble (Continued on Page Eight) MARRIED SANTELLA — DELAGE —TIn _Norwich. une 7, by Rev.
