The chief difficulty lies in the relationship between medicals
and educationalists
The importance of medical work in schools
The table showing the work of medicals in connection with schools
The importance of educational work in hospitals
The table showing the work of educationalists in hospitals
Summary of co-operation between evangelists, medicals, and

CHAPTER VIII.

THE NATIVE CHURCH.

The end of the station, a Native Church
This end a condition into which the Church must be
growing
Survey must therefore deal with the Native Church
The reason for beginning with self-support
The meaning of self-supporting Churches
In rare cases it means independence of external support
In most cases it means attainment of an arbitrary standard
In most cases it does not represent the power of the people to supply
their own needs
In most cases it is not sure evidence of growing liberality
Nevertheless we must begin by considering the self-supporting
Churches
We ask for proportion of self-supporting Churches
This will not reveal the power of the Churches to stand alone
We inquire then the proportion of inquirers in self-supporting
Churches
We inquire then the proportion of unpaid workers in self-supporting
Churches
Where self-supporting Churches are not recognised we inquire--

(i) Power of Christians to conduct their own services
(ii) Power to order Church government
(iii) Power to provide expenses of Church organisation

CHAPTER IX.

SURVEY OF DISTRICTS WHERE TWO OR MORE SOCIETIES ARE AT WORK.
SURVEY OF MISSIONS WITH NO DEFINED DISTRICTS.

I. The possibility of united survey by missionaries of two or more
Societies
The evil of ignoring the work of others
Survey is concerned with facts not with ecclesiastical prejudices
The difficulty of obtaining the facts
The use of estimates
II. The mission which has no defined district--A
general expression of the purpose of such a mission
In its widest terms survey of the work of such a mission would
involve survey of the whole state of society
In its narrower terms it is survey of a mission establishing a Church
In this case most of the preceding tables could be used, omitting
proportions to area and population
Then we could see force at work
Then we could see forms of work
Then we could place the mission in a survey of the Country
