MISSION FOR CHINESE.
DIFFICULTIES OF WORK.
A report by the Rev. W. Mawson on the work of the Auckland Chinese Mission, was presented to the Auckland Presbytery yesterday by the Rev. E. R. Harries. The difficulty which Mr. Mawson had in carrying out the duties of foreign mission secretary and also superintending the work of tile Chinese Mission, was mentioned. The Sunday school for Chinese children had a roll of twenty, stated the report. This was continuing to grow and to hold the interest of the scholars. The full time of a Christian evangelist WBs demanded by the presence of over a thousand Chinese men in the province, apart from women and children:: The report was adopted. C4ive the children a happy day before the final Christmas rush. Let them see the quaint store decorations—toy land— the wonderful doll's house.
