to give prospective newcomers the In

to assist them in finding sanitary and

China Going to School.

Picking, Sept. TN China temples in
many of the cities have been cOnfis-
Gated to accommodate the colleges or
schools which are being founded more
rapidly than buildings can be built for
them. The ancient examination halls
Of the classic system are being torn
down to build the new universities and
parliament buildings. The number Of
modern government students in Picking
rose in ten years from 800 to 1900,
and the pupils in the surrounding PROV
ince increased from 1000 to 100000.
During a visit to a dozen of the
cities in China there were found from
1900 to 10000 students in each. The
splendid buildings Of the great normal
schools rise in many cities, some hav-
ing n 1000 teachers in training. for
China's new system when completed
will call for nearly a million teachers.
There is a thirst for modern educa-
ton greater even than that which was
formerly manifested for the old learn
ing, when men of seventy or eighty
years of age were seen still trying to
pass the classic examinations. Even
women's education is being rapidly ad-
vanced in China.
