Excerpt from How England Saved China In saying this they fail to recognize how much the England of to-day owes to the missionaries who brought Christianity to it, when it was barbarous and uncivilized. Neither have they read the history of other lands and marked how some of them have been elevated by English missionaries, and how the English flag is looked upon as the symbol of freedom and justice, in a large measure through the heroic services of her sons. If Africa could speak today, she would declare that the horrors of the past have been swept away through the devotion of Living stone, one oi the most distinguished of English missionaries, who gave his life for that dark continent. That many Christian men and members of Churches should speak in the same strain is still more distressing. The command of Christ, clear.

Excerpt from How England Saved China This book has been written with a purpose. The writer has been deeply affected by the fact that considerable numbers of Englishmen, merchants, scholars, working-men, &c., deliberately declare that missionaries ought not to be sent to the heathen. In saying this they fail to recognize how much the England of to-day owes to the missionaries who brought Christianity to it, when it was barbarous and uncivilized. Neither have they read the history of other lands and marked how some of them have been elevated by English missionaries, and how die English flag is looked upon as the symbol of freedom and justice, in a large measure through the heroic services of her sons. If Africa could speak to-day, she would declare that the horrors of the past have been swept away through the devotion of Living-stone, one of the most distinguished of English missionaries, who gave his life for that dark continent. That many Christian men and members of Churches should speak in the same strain is still more distressing.

Excerpt from Changing China Not only did we seek information from English and American but also from French and Italian missions as occasion offered. We tested and com pared this information by the information we got from that most enlightened and able body of men who form the consular body in China. We are especially grateful to Sir John Jordan, by whose great diplomatic skill both the position of England and the goodwill of the Chinese are maintained.

Excerpt from China England But while this gloomy picture of the state of affairs might have been partly true of China in the time past, it is no longer true now. The sick man is rapidly convalescent, the sleeping lion is awake, and the hoary and tottery empire has had new blood injected into her system. China is moving and she is moving with a rapidity difficult for one who has not personally witnessed the wonderful changes to understand and realise. Repeated defeats at the hands of the foreign Powers soon convinced our people of the futility of matching bows and arrows against modern guns and explosives, whilst our wooden junks went down before the onslaught of armoured cruisers and battleships like wheat before the scythe. For several years there was loud and threatening talk of doing violence to the integrity of the empire, and one actually appeared under the ominous work and unfortunate title of "The break-up of China." No sooner did books and newspapers containing discussions of this subject appear than they were translated into our language, and the wild rumours of impending violence filled the minds of the people with indignation and alarm, impelling them at, one may say, the point of the bayonet to devise ways and means whereby national danger might be averted. Proofs of incidents were not lacking to warn our people that all were not brothers within four seas. The rising of the 20th century ushered in the New China, beaming and teeming in the prime of its vigour, though sometimes tempered by the over-enthusiasm of its juvenile spirit. As we know that we are in need of new knowledge badly, batches of young men have been sent abroad for such scientific education. Many of them devoted a large part of their time to the editing of magazines and the translation of books, a veritable flood of literature thus pouring back to their fatherland, and reaching every nook and corner of the empire.

Excerpt from The China Shop "Larry Munro" ... As ever, the repetition of the name, even spoken by myself, goaded me through all the familiar stages of memory and exasperation and sense of unbearable injury, till it reached a climax when it seemed the whole universe was not space enough for me and Larry both; and that one of us would be crowded out and suffocated: one of us had better die. And I cared about Larry sufficiently to wish I might be that one. Here was the grotesque twist on the situation!
