Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Child in the Midst: A Comparative Study of Child Welfare in Christian and Non-Christian Lands The Central Committee on the United Study of Foreign Missions sends out the fourteenth text-book with hearty appreciation of the favor with which the thirteen already issued have been received. The phases of work which have been treated and the manner of their treatment have appealed to a large constituency of various names, resulting in an increase of knowledge and an impulse to pray and work and give. This is not a book for children, but a book about children the world over, and with its accurate statement of facts solicits attention to the great need of new effort in behalf of children in non-Christian lands. The author, Mary Schauffler Labaree (Mrs. Benjamin W.), a missionary daughter, granddaughter, wife, and mother, was born into an environment of missionary intelligence and activity in which her girlhood was trained. Later years of experience in Persia, and subsequent association with many nationalities in our own land, have given her large opportunity to know whereof she writes with tender, sympathetic touch. If the book may lead others to know and do, its purpose will be fulfilled. Central, Committee on the United Study Of Foreign Missions. Mrs. Henry W. Peabody. Miss E. Harriet Stanwood. Mrs. Decatur M. Sawyer. Mrs. Frank Mason North. Mrs. James A. Webb, Jr. Mrs. A. V. Pohlman. Miss Olivia H. Lawrence. Miss Grace T. Colburn.
