would have such board modify the
present florid style of composition
and put the Chinese classics, that Is
the better known works of Confuclus,
into simple language with simpiiped
characters. This education would
take from the Mandarin dialect as
used in Peking, which is the language
of scholars, possibly five thousand
Chinese characters sufficient for or
dinary expression. This would be the
standard vocabulary for all emma.
The pronunciation of the characters
would be standardized in such a way
that the written and spoken words
would be exactly the same In every
province.
Better Text Books.
The educators suggest: that this re-
form board would make text books
and dictionaries containing the fiVe
thousand words or characters ade-
auate to cover the first five years of
urinary school work. They regard
that as the vital basis for educational
reform in China, and suggest that
more elaborate dictionaries and
standard text books could easily be
worked out so as to put education
even In the universities upon the same
basis in all China.
At present the pronunciation of
Chinese characters is different In
practically every province. A Canton
man. is absolutely unable to under
stand the language of Pekinese until
he has studied the pronunciation. The
same Is true of men from adjacent
provinces in either the north or south
Of China.
It is estimated that the plan for
standardizing Chinese would bring
about universal language in China In
less than forty years, II compulsory
education were adopted, and the
Mandarin dialect, or the dialect OF the
educated class, were taught In all
schools. Missionaries and other for
eigners who have lived in China for
many years are almost unanimous In
their belief that the extremely diff
ficult and varied language OF the
Chinese is the greatest barrier tc
China's progress. Written and spoken
Chinese are in such hopeless com
plexity that there are very few
Chinese scholars who have been able
| to master all the dialects even In Q
long life time Of continuous study.
Only artists of the first class are
able to write certain Chinese char
acters In an acceptable way. OF ro-

idapset up by the newspapers and the
government for the people TO worship,
and the magic of his name had much
10 do with the astonishing outpourihg

But the munition muddle last spring
proved that Kitchener was not omhls-

to do than any man living could nave
attended to, and the control OF mu-
nitions when the coalition govern

secretary became rife. As facts con-
cerning the great campaigns became
known after months of concealment,
this criticism grew In intensity. Inc

which Churchill was blamed was
eaddled by Churchill on Kitchener. Sir
Ian Hamilton blames the war office
for niggardl liness in sending out rein

The Republican Administration (not
