 ===St. Luke's hospital, Chemulpo.===
 FIRST QUARTER, 1911.
-THERE are several things which seem to indicate that changes are taking place in Korea as regards the views of the people on matters medical. For some years there has been a steady increase of the number of in-patients suffering from diseases, the treatment of which falls to the physician rather than to the surgeon, and from the beginning of this year this tendency has increased. In any country where foreign medicine is a new thing, and especially in a country such as this where there has for ages been medical treatment of a sort, probably more or less scientific at first but degenerate in its modern forms, people are quite willing to bring any external ailment to the mission doctor, but are inclined to think that their own practitioners are quite adequate for the management of diseases, the cause of which does not show on the surface. Not only so, but the Korean shares with our grandfathers a wholesome dread of fresh air, and as in England some time ago a patient suffering from smallpox was closely shut up and never allowed to meet with that dangerous commodity, so the Korean, when one of his family has a fever of any kind of seems seriously ill, would not think of allowing him to venture out of doors Wind is the thing of all others to be avoided by anyone who is ill, and this combines with the lack of confidence in the foreigner and a feeling that the illness is so bad that it is no good troubling to keep such patients from presenting themselves for treatment. What is the cause of the change it would not be easy to say: it is probably, in part at least, due to the spread of Christianity and with it some degree of contact of a confidential kind with the foreigner, but the fact remains that such cases are coming to hospital as they never have done before. Whereas in the past most of the medical cases coming to the out-patient department were trivial, there are now a number suitable for admission; and it is a matter of deep thankfulness that the people are at last beginning to realise something of what can be done for them, and to take advantage of it.

-Another change has been noted this year, which is not so easy to account for, namely, the fact that for the first time there was no very great or widely spread anxiety on the part of in-patients to go home for the new year. It may be said that this is due to the fact that under the new regime the new year has been made to conform to the solar calendar instead of the lunar one; but though the change has been officially made it does not seem to have affected the people to any great extent, and certainly does not suffice to explain the fact that instead of the hospital being nearly emptied it was as full as usual.

-And these words, “as usual”, mean more than they used to do. For during the past quarter the hospital has for the first time been quite full. Indeed the average number of in patients for the whole month was a fraction below thirty and for some time, while patients were being daily admitted, there had to be consultation as to who could possibly be sent out to make room for each. It is not likely that this will continue to be the case always, but having once occurred it will no doubt be not infrequent in the future.

 The great event of the quarter has been the arrival of Dr. Nancy Borrow at the beginning of March. She is not permanently settled here, but, as arranged between her and Bishop Turner, she will spend a year in Chemulpo, so as to be able to give her time to the language, with more chance of being comparatively uninterrupted than would be the case were she to start work by herself at once. In the meantime she is doing what she can to help in the medical work, and her advice and assistance are of the great value that only one who has been without a chance of a consultation for some years can realise.
-Almost at the very beginning she was able to render great help in a serious operation, for in the train by which she arrived there travelled down from Su Won the teacher of the school there, who was in grave danger of his life. His story shows one of the great difficulties of the work in a country like this. Su Won is distant from Chemulpo some eighty li or about thirty miles by road, though being on the railway the former is not much used. Some time before this man had been sent down with a bad ear, which had been giving him a good deal of pain ; in the train on the way down something burst and on his arrival he was found to have a large boil, which having at last come to a head was not likely to give him much more trouble. As he lived so far away the question had to be decided as to whether or no he should come into hospital, for there was no other means of seeing him again than taking him in. Considering the fulness of the hospital, the possibility of his getting a certain amount of help in his treatment at Su Won, and the triviality of the trouble, now that the boil had burst, it was decided to let him go home. However, we did not know that he did not live in Su Won itself, but some three miles off; and he seems to have kept himself very much at home, so that no one knew exactly how he was getting on for some time, when he was found to be seriously ill and was with a good deal of difficulty persuaded to come down again. What had happened in the meantime is not quite clear, but when he arrived at Chemulpo for the second time it was no longer a question of a boil, but of a large abscess in the bone, and nothing but a very extensive operation could have saved his life. Fortunately the operation was just in time and he has made an excellent recovery, though the wound is not yet altogether healed and he will have to stay in hospital for some time longer, and will probably have some weakness of one side of his face permanently.

 DEAR CHILDREN, -
 Some of you may have had Services or Meetings on May 3, the day on which the annual Festival is held in London and Korea, and so all in many parts were on that day united in a special way. I thought you might like to know about the Festival held in London: a great gathering like that brings before us how many in different ways and in different parts are all working together.
 To begin with, there was an evening meeting for those who could not come to the usual afternoon one. At this the Bishop-Designate was present, and announced his acceptance of the Bishopric of Korea. Many of you have already heard of Mr. Trollope (the new Bishop), as he has been connected with the Mission for so long and, in fact, he was one of the first priests in the Mission field in Korea. His announcement was met with great enthusiasm. Then the next morning there was an early Celebration in the Crypt Chapel in St. Paul's Cathedral, and later a Choral Celebration. In the afternoon the Committee met to arrange business matters, and this was followed by a meeting at which Bishop Montgomery spoke. He had lately returned from Korea, and from visiting the Mission stations, about which he spoke with great enthusiasm. In the Mission Field for April and May you would be able to read about what he saw. Bishop Corfe, who was the first Bishop. also spoke; the Bishop-Designate and several others telling us of what the Mission is doing, and what the work demands of us.
 Miss Gregory at the evening meeting made us feel how very much more we English people ought to do. I have told you about the Festival Meeting, as it may help you to feel how you are linked on to a great work.
 Now I want to tell you that I have had the great pleasure of seeing and talking to Sister Nora and hearing from her about the Orphanage. Sister Nora has been at the head of the Orphanage for a great number of years and not been to England for a long time. She asked if there would be an opportunity of seeing some of you children who are working for her and her work, and so I hope to be able to arrange for her to come and speak to you if you can have Meetings, and she will also show you pictures of Korean places and people, and show you some of the work the children out there do.
 Do you remember in one letter I told you about Bertha, a little one brought to the Orphanage by her father, as her mother was too ill to look after her? Well, she is still at the Orphanage and likely to remain there, as her mother has now been taken to a hospital and it is unlikely that she will recover.
 Then there are three of the elder girls who have been allowed to join the Yang Won School. This is a school formerly kept by a Korean heathen, but now offered to the Mission. The examinations at the end of the term there were quite difficult and yet, though these three children were put into the second grade and had only been attending for one term, they managed to take very good places Rachel, who is fourteen and is preparing to be a teacher, came out fifth; Edna, aged thirteen, was sixth: but Rhoda did not manage so well, not being so industrious. Sister Nora says the girls are very quick at learning and at quite a young age begin to learn.
-The children in the Orphanage begin their day about five o'clock, at least, if they can be kept in bed till that hour! Those who are old enough help with the house work and some go and help in the kitchen to prepare breakfast, which consists of boiled rice. There is difficulty in getting milk and so the milk used is tinned and comes from Australia. The rice is boiled in water and they cook enough at one time to be sufficient for dinner, when they put boiling water on it, eat it with salt, pepper, and boiled vegetables. They have hardly any meat as it does not agree with them. A great treat for them is to have some bread; a Korean child will eat a bunch of dry bread with great relish. The Koreans do not make bread, as it is not a usual food with them; but the Chinese in the country make it. When the children are taken for a treat into the country, bread is usually provided for them.

 Well, breakfast is at about seven o'clock, followed by prayers. At nine the girls who attend school go off and the others go into the schoolroom, and a Korean teacher comes and gives them lessons, Sister Barbara going to give a Scripture lesson.
-The lessons go on till twelve, then they play and have dinner. In the afternoon they do needlework, which Sister Nora says they do very well and have quickly picked up knitting. In the evening the little ones play and the elder ones prepare lessons for next day. So their day seems much cut out like ours, does it not? It is only ten years that there have been schools for girls, and in these few years the girls have made great progress and quite a new life has been opened out to them.

 And now to write about what has been going on at home. You remember I told you of those two little ones, Eva and Rebecca, and told you that the cost of the care of one of them had been undertaken by the children of St. James's, Clapham, but that is a mistake; it is the children of St. Saviour's, Clapham, who are going to do so, and the children of St. Andrew's, Croydon, are going to undertake the care of the other one. This is very good news, and we are so grateful to them.
 Arthur and William from St. Saviour's, Clapham, have sent two such nice postcard albums, which they have made for these two children. Sister Nora said they would be so pleased with them, and how nice it was of the boys to make them.
 If any of the girls can knit and could make scarves and cuffs of some bright coloured wool, the Korean children would be so pleased to have them, as they feel the cold very much. A box is sent out in September, so if you could make and send them to me by August, I will forward them on. Kathleen and her brothers and sister at Pinner, with other children and nurses, have been very industrious, and made things for the bazaar at Clapham and to go to Korea, for which I am very grateful; and we also have to thank other children who are not members of the Association, but have very kindly sent us donations.
 Believe me,
 Your sincere friend,
 BEAVOR LODGE, HATCH END. MABEL SEATON

-Nothing is of such vital importance to the Mission at this stage as a sound system of Education. The real purpose of the Mission has never once been lost sight of-namely, to found a Native Church which shall, in time, be served by a Native priesthood. That can never be achieved without schools. These may be Government schools or they may be Mission schools. If the former, facilities must be found by which Christian boys can take advantage of the learning there afforded ; if the latter, we must embark upon the establishment of efficient schools ourselves. A most excellent report has been received by the new Education Committee, of which Lord William Cecil is Chairman, from Mr. Hodges, who has gone out for the express purpose of making this subject his special study. No department of the Home Work has received so little support in the past as the Education Fund. This is due, no doubt, to the fact that little has been asked of it; but the moment has now arrived when it has become the pivot of the whole Mission. Large sums will soon be needed; and whatever amount the Bishop shall ask for, we are convinced that it will be the best money ever spent upon the work.
