Also included in the International Mission Photography Archive. and Frame 30 - Theological Faculty and students on the steps of their hall, the McGotch-Robinson School of Theology.

It will be noted that some of the students are older than others; many of these have been serving the Chinese Church in some lay capacity and have come to Cheeloo for further training. One notable feature of this building is a small chapel which has been simply and beautifully furnished, in a way which might be copied in any village, using Chinese furniture adapted to the requirements of worship. The Chinese characters for 'Alpha and Omega' are carved at the ends of the pews, and the characters over the door invite to a place of meditation and worship. A relatively large group of people, both Chinese and Western, outside a building. The majority of Asian people in the group are in traditional Chinese dress, although a few are in Western clothing. The missionaries in the group are all in Western dress.

Also included in the International Mission Photography Archive. and Frame 6 - Agricultural scenes: University campus is in the country outside the wall that surrounds the suburb of the city. 6, Faculty residences in the background. Wheat Harvest on the farm adjoining the campus. Experimentation with drought-resistant grains is part of the extension work of the university Farms. Primitive methods of harvesting, without mechanical aide? Yes, scornful and superior ones, but no unemployment, either, and no 'bread lines knee-deep in wheat'. Wheat is the staple crop which 'the good earth' produces for the hungry mouths in Shangtung, and 'the Wheat' is used for dating events for months before and after. 'You ought to come into the hospital for treatment. Can't you come in today?' 'No, just let me go home till after the wheat, then I'll come back.' Or, 'When did you first notice this tumor?' 'It was last year, just about the time of the wheat.' Notice the hexagonal straw hats, warn for sun-protection by the farmers, but also highly esteemed by young Westerners of the female persuasion. Three farmers are in a field, two close to the camera, and all are working on harvesting wheat. They're wearing traditional Chinese clothing and straw hats toprotect them from the sun.

Description:
"The father had his times of fears, having been told by neighbors 'There is no such thing as a place where they will treat your son free and give you a meal a day.' However, he learned that this was done in the name of the Father of us all and gradually came to understand.", A Chinese man and his son are talking to a social worker., Also included in the International Mission Photography Archive., and No. 77. Father and Son in October of last year, a country boy of eight was brought to the Out-Patient Department by his father, a farmer, 58 years old. This was an only son in a family with four daughters, and the father was much concerned because he had been told by another hospital, and also by old-fashioned Chinese doctors, that there was no hope for the child. Having learned of the big hospital in the capital city of the province, he quickly brought him here, having collected $31.80 towards the cost of admission. Learning that it would take $50 for admission, he borrowed $25.00 from a nephew living here and hoped that the remaining few dollars would keep him alive while he waited for the patient. Since the diagnosis was nephrosis, many tests and various treatments were necessary, and the time in hospital was very long, 112 days. A financial arrangement was therefore made, so that the father need not go home to sell part of his small bit of land, as he planned to do. The father gave weekly blood transfusions to his son and was co-operative in every way. A Social Worker saw that the father was looking very bedraggled and found out that the nephew with whom he lived was not able to give him enough food to keep up his strength. With the co-operation of the Dietitian and money collected by a Sunday School class, we arranged for him to have a meal a day, and he at once began to gain weight. During his stay in the hospital, daily lessons in character reading were given to the patient by a Social Worker, and, at the Christmas program, he was able to repeat a Scripture lesson taught by the doctor. When he left the hospital, a few days ago, to go back to the country, both the patient the his father were changed in many ways and were grateful for knowledge of many kinds.
