Many of these, with other pictures, appear as illustrations in the fol lowing pages, and form an interesting feature Of the book. The faces of the faithful missionarles and the buildings in which they live and Carry on their work will serve to strengthen the links that bind these brave workers abroad to the churches at home in an indissoluble fellowship of sacrifice, of joy and of triumph.
