A certain section foreman noticed
that one of his men had rabbit meat
in his pail. He questioned the man.
~'Yes, me got lots rabbit" was the
smiling reply.
"John," the foreman said, "you bring

John promised he would and the
next day the foreman received his por-
ton and ate it with relish. He also
became curious as to where John got

'"The Five Kings Is the name of the sacred book in which is incorporated the religion of the Chinese as well as 8 great number of other peoples of the orient. The doctrine Is complex sys- tenn of moral, social, political and reli- gious teaching built up by COnfucius on the ancient Chinese traditions, and. although Its author lived more than five centuries before the birth of Christ, 1t is still perpetuated as the state reli- zion of the Chinese down to the pres ent day. Confucianism is a religion without positive revelation, with a minimum of dogmatic teaching, whose popular worship is centered in offer tngs to the dead, in which the notion of duty is extended beyond the sphere of morals proper so as to embrace al most every detail of daily life.
