Teaching in a Chinese Class

Title: Teaching in a Chinese Class
Identifier: FOS_22
Description: A Chinese teacher leading a class of around twenty younger school age children seated at wooden desks, with a pantheon of deity statues and a mural in the background. During the Japanese invasion of China, starting in 1937, many schools (both mission and government run) had to relocate to West China, taking up residence in abandoned or little used local temples. After the war, these remained convenient locations for instruction.
