Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Christian Education in China: A Study Made by an Educational Commission Representing the Mission Boards and Societies Conducting Work in China
The publication of the Report of the China Educational Com mission marks, in one sense, the completion of an undertaking which was begun in 1917 (see Introduction). In a more vital sense, it marks the beginning of a new and very important develop ment in the history Of Christian education in China. From this time on, as a result Of the studies of the Commission, the forces concerned with Christian education in China have before them a statement of principles which, in the judgment of careful and sympathetic students, should underlie all future progress and a forecast of opportunities and ideals which should arouse much latent energy.
It will equally be the Obligation of the several Boards and Socie ties responsible for the support and administration Of Christian education in China to give careful heed to the matured conclusions of the experts who were set apart to make this study. The Report may either lie undisturbed in their archives, useful for the future historian Of education in China, or it may become a directive factor in the educational system Of China, in?uencing powerfully the intellectual life of the Chinese Church and of the Chinese people.
