- Description
China: Chinkiang [Zhenjiang]. Mennonite Missionary feeding refugees
The Mennonite Missionary order is something like the Quakers. They come out here and work only for their keep. In Chinkiang they are feeding thousands of refugees every day with bread baked with American flour. Here they are inspecting the bread just as the Chinese baker (in the picture) has brought a batch of it out of the oven. The members are: Director Robert Waltner, of Freeman, South Dakota (in the checked coat). Assistant Director John Z. Friesen, of Meade, Kansas. And Registered Nurse Miss Elvira Leheman, of Berne, Indiana.
