EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a delightful moment at the David Hill Memorial Girls Boarding School in Hanyang, one of the districts of modern-day Wuhan, China. Established by the Women's Auxiliary of the Wesleyan Methodist Missionary Society (WMMS), the school provided education and opportunities for young girls during the 1910s. In this image, a group of well-favoured children are seen engaged in a lively game of 'Oranges and Lemons.' Dressed in their school uniforms, they stand in two lines, holding oranges and lemons, beaming with joy and excitement. The traditional English nursery rhyme, 'Oranges and Lemons,' likely served as the inspiration for this playful activity. The Wesleyan Methodist Missionary Society, also known as Methodism, was a Christian missionary organization that aimed to spread the gospel and promote education, healthcare, and social welfare in various parts of the world, including China. The society's commitment to education is evident in the establishment of numerous schools, such as the David Hill Memorial Girls Boarding School, which offered quality education to young girls in China. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the impact of missionary societies on education and the lives of children in China during the early 20th century. The smiles on the faces of these children demonstrate the joy and fulfillment that came from their experiences at the school, which not only provided them with an education but also allowed them to enjoy simple pleasures like playing games and singing songs.
