Excerpt from How to Use Our Text-Book Women Workers of the Orient: A Handbook of Suggestions A party of travelers could present these facts, one speaking of the prison-like dormitories, another of the long hours, another the menace to health and morality, another of the wrecks that emerge. A paper summarizing the points made in ancient peoples AT new tasks, Chapter II, might well follow. In this chapter Mr. Price shows the futility of all this waste of good human material, and proves that even in a financial way it is short-sighted and ruinous for a nation to permit overwork and underpay. The facts he gives on pp. 45-52 are eloquent and instructive to us at home as well as for Japan. We need to learn that high wages may actually, and usually do, mean a low labor cost, and that low wages are the costliest things in the: world since all society has to pay up in ill-health, immor ality and decadence for that which the employer refused to pay. The closing number of the program should tie up the whole question to missionary activities. On pp. 76-77 of the text-book and pp. 54-58 of Mr. Price's book there is an array of significant facts; but the most eloquent proof that Foreign Missions help these millions of helpless toil ers is the action of Christian employers like those noted on pp. 67-70, and on pp. 56-58 of Mr. Price's book. The Shanghai Press is another illustration, and still others may be found in the files of the missionary RE view OF the world.
