GRAFT RULES CHINA.
To Refuse to Accept II Would Create
Big Sensation.

Why can't China build her own rail-
roads, dredge her own canals? She
has engineers who are no slouches; she
has limitless material and the cheap
est of labor.
There are two reasons, slOth, and
graft the outgrowth of sloth.
Try to take one of the little steamers
that ply from point to point along the
coast of China. "Will the boat leave
the agents at the pier. Well, no, prob
ably not till tomorrow, the courteous
Chinese tell you. Tomorrow again there
IL some delay, and you may hang about
for a week before you get off in that
steamer. How could such methods
build trunk line from Peking to Can
ton, even If the government could float
all the bonds in the world?
Graft, which permeates all China,
from the highest official TO the poorest
coolie, would make it very difficult for
corporation TO live. So many would
take bites from the melon.
A missionary over here on visit
tells story of Chinese boy, educat-
Fd in mission school, who nearly up
set whole province by refusing graft.
Sent on some expedition for the local
government, he was given what in our
money would be $500 for expenses.
When he returned he handed in $50.
"What Is this for?' they asked
81 spent only $3.50" he explained.
There was great to do, and the
governor of the province sent TO see
this lad, who had done what no man
had ever been known to do before
But he was nolemnly assured that he
must not return that $50 because 1t
would mOrtify others who kept all they
could get.-Eleanor Booth Simmons in

In all his school work, the youngster is

He knows the calendar by heart and,
although given the most severe ques-

never makes a mistake. If you tell
him your age he can tell in second
the year you were born. and If you
give him the date of your birthday and
ask him what day of the week 1t comes
on he replies at once, correctly and

His ability cannot be attributed to
mental telepathy, for in many in

Although not customary to teach
children the months and abbreviations
of months, Roy had them mastered
