Some time during the present year,
It is stated here, work will be COM
menced on a model ChineSe-American
city in h very heart of the oldest
civilized country of the world. Its
affairs will be conducted by the ablest
men of both nationalitie and it's es-
tablishment will be for the sole pur-
pose of giving to the young men and
women of the developing republic of
China the most complete and elabor-
ate system Of modern education that
has so far been established in any part
Of the earth. This modern Chinese
American city will have no political
significance and its churches will be
undenominationaI. It's one Christian
church will teach the doctrines OF
IChrist without reference to any single
| sect or creed. It's other church will
be a temple of Confucius.

met. The wealthy men of the new
republ1c irrespective of political ad-

enthusiasm, and their money will un-
