Show CHINAMEN IN A SUNDAY-SCHOOL. - In the Sunday school of the Reformed Presbyterian Church, in Clinton Street, Cincinnati, there are about twenty-five Chinamen, each of whom is provided with a teacher. At the recent Christmas festival of the school they gave their teachers the Lord's prayer printed in the Chinese tongue and neatly framed, and in every Chinese laundry in the city the prayer may now be found on the wall. The Chinamen say they repeat it every night. The owner of one of the laundries has been trying to induce his customers to call for their clothes on Saturday night instead of Sunday morning, but he has had some difficulty in doing so. Nearly all the laundries have adopted the plan of closing on Sunday noon in order to attend afternoon services. - Hawkeye. |
