MISSIONARY BOOKS

THE CHINESE AS THEY ARE

THE LURE OF THE LEOPARD SKIN By Josephine H. Westervelt A stirring story of ad­ venture centered around experiences of a -young American who goes into Africa chiefly in search of adventure. This he finds in good measure and some­ thing else besides. He has encounters with wild ani­ mals— has narrow escapes from death and tropical diseases—and, best of all, while in the wilds he comes upon a mission station and through daily contact with the missionaries he comes to know their Saviour and becomes imbued with their spirit. A delightful ro­ mance is interwoven which holds the reader’s attention from beginning to end. Cloth, $175 By Hugh T. Kerr, D. D. An excellent book which can scarcely fail to be of great practical use. A book that will interest the children and help the preacher, teacher or mis­ sion-band leader over the many hard spots. Dr. Kerr has gathered stories about individuals, focusing the lessons in the personalities of the men and women of the mission field about whom he writes. Cloth, $1.25 THE CASE OF KOREA By Henry Chung A collection of evidences on the Japanese domination of Korea and the develop­ ment of the Korean Inde­ pendence Movement. A very rare case of a book pat to the minute, histor­ ical, expository, and docu­ mentary. Cloth, $3.00 CHILDREN’S MISSIONARY STORY-SERMONS
