Title:
Ch'ungju Mission Station.
Description:
A typical country school. Every well-ordered country community had a building of this kind. Primarily a school, it was also a community meeting place.

Title:
Ch'ungju Mission Station.
Description:
A typical country church in Ch'ungju or any other station area. Built entirely by the efforts of the local congregation, it would have a rice-straw thatched roof at first.
