Baty, Returned Iission- ary, Told of Conditions in China, and also of the Mission Work Be- ing Conducted In That Heathen Land. At the morning service in the Presbyterian church last Sunday, the congregation listened to an ex- cellent address by Miss B. F. Baty,‘ a returned missionary from the Kongmoon district, near Danton, in South China. who told of her im- pressions during five years of ser- vice in that country, dating from 1920 to 1925. Miss Baty went to China as a doc- tor missionary at the request of sev- eral of the leading Chinese Christ- ians of Shekki, who asked that a doctor and a nurse be sent. to take charge of the hospital at that place. As a result the Presbyterian church had sent Miss Baily. whose home is in London, and Dr. Wannop, the former as superintendent of nurses in the Shekki hospital and the latter as superintemlent of the hos- pital. The speaker dealt with the gener- al conditions in China, and said that it was ltnssia and Germany who were responsible for the present chaos and ciivil war. These two countries, through their emissaries and by propaganda distributed by air-plane, had for the past live years been undermining the minds of the uneducated people of China and had convinced them that it was the intention of the British and other foreigners to put them all to death when the proper time arriv- ed. As a result of this, many of the native residents of Hong Kong had gone back to the Chinese mainland, and in 1915 Miss Baty and her asso- ciates were advised that they had better vacate Shekki, which they did. It was about this time that the Chinese boycott against the Bri- tish was commenced at Hong Kong and the Canadian Pacific steamers plying to that port from Vancouver were handicapped for help.
