The awakening of China, the educat-
ing that mass of prejudiced population,
is superhuman task. SLSome great ma
tional upheaval might do, but nothing
short of that. Meanwhile Or. Sun and
his fellow laborers are working manful-
ly, and succeed in making impressions,
especially in the South. The Chinese is
not an uneducated man, but is stepped
to the core in his own methods, his own
approximations and his Unborn preju-
dices. These can not be brushed aside
or even in a century. Yet many thou
sands mayhap million or more have
mingled abroad and associated and
been educated in Western methods.
But what would be a million of west
ern educated Chinese among a popula-
ton of 400, 100000. 1t is mere drop in
the bucket.
