Children's Corner
Edited by Minnie L. Houck, Shirley, Ind.
My Dear Children:— On the eve of my departure from Chicago where I have been two weeks attending a missionary convention, I have decided to write you of some of the sights I have seen in the "Windy City." On arriving, my first impression of the city was not very good. I saw many buildings which looked old and dirty, even some of the main streets were paved with rough cobble stones, instead of nice smooth cement as we see in Indianapolis. But after I had been over the city somewhat, I saw many beautiful buildings and boulevards, one street especially where we often passed was seemingly given over to automobiles for we never crossed it without meeting very many of them. The stone church where the convention was held was in a very pretty part of the city. One square to the west on Michigan avenue which is known as millioniare street, we saw the beautiful brown stone mansion of the late Philip Armour of the Meat Packing house fame.
Several squares east of us was Lake Michigan. Oh, how we enjoyed the sight of the blue waves as they rolled away in the distance till it seemed the sea and sky met. Cne day our guide took us up in the maid part of the city through some very costly buildings, the interior was built of marble and the trimmings were out of gold leaf. We were shown through the Board of Trade and there we saw a sight that was very strange indeed. From the gallery we could look down upon the men in the center of the room called a pit. They were speculating on grain, buying it and then perhaps in a few minutes selling it at a higher price. The men would sceam out to each other with their hands in the air making many signs which we did not understand of course there was much here of which we did not opprove so we decided next to visit China town. We saw some chop suey restaurants in quaint Chinese styl^ costing thousands of dollars. In their stores everything was different from American stores. Their vegetables nuts, slippers, dresses and queer decorations were very interesting. I bought a little ornament made by the Chinese it was the image of three monkeys, the first with his hands over his eyes, his name was "See no evil," the second whose hands were over his ears was named
Hear no evil" and the third monkey's hands covered his mouth, his name was, "Speak no evil." That is pretty good advice for all of us, isent it children? I saw some Chinese children and talked with them. They looked just like the pictures you have seen with thenqueer little eyes and straight black hair. Some were dressed in gaily colored dresses.
I got a little idol to use in the children's meetings to show what the heathen worship. It is an image of their god, Buddha, a man who lived about five hundred years before Christ. A few days we were surprised to read in the papers that they had actually found the bones of Buddha who had died nearly twenty-five hundred years ago.
Of course that will cause a great many more people to worship this false god. After leaving China town we visited the Pacific Garden Mission right in the heart of the city. It is one of the1oldest and best known of all the Missions. There were many mottoes placed all around the room but the one that impressed me most was the one on the front wall which said, "How long since you wrote to mother?"
It brought tears to my eyes as I thought of the many boys, innocent and loving, brought up at mother's knee who have come to the city to find work and have drifted away with evil companions and temptations on many lines until they forget their fond mothers, who wait with longing hearts for a letter from the boys they love.
Time and space will not permit me to write longer so I will close by telling you of our delightful ride on the elevated car, it is run by neither engine nor trolley, but by electricity. We rode out to a friend's home in Oak Park, about fifteen miles. It was nice to ride so high, on a level with the roofs of some of the buildings, we crossed the Chicago River and passed many beautiful parks and driveways.
While I met many dear people in Chicago I was glad to start home once more and prepare fo» my trip to India next fall.
