Tells Of Unity in Work.

Bishop Harding said that the houses
of the bishops and the deputies were
too far apart to allow much inter-
mingling and these church officers
only saw each other at the con-
ferences. He told of the great unity
with which every one worked and
how the business Of both houses was
carried out in a smooth. dignihed
manner. aud, he felt. very wisely, TOO.
He spoke of the various appointments
made to foreign dioceses, such as
Panama, Philippines, Haiti. Japan and
Liberia. He . clared that great wis
dom was show n in the selections Tor
these offices and he felt time would
prove this.
He spoke of the nationwide cam
paign that was being waged, for which
$50, 100000 had been asked to aid In
the Improvement and betterment OF
the entire episcopal organization
throughout the United States. This
campaign included the supervision Of
old churches, the procuring of suitable
ministers, and, in fact, the complete
survey of the conditions OF the whole
church. Concentrated and united ef-
fort was the only means Of the sue
cessfuI completion of this gigantic
task, but he was certain it would be
attained.
Speaks Of Dead Rector.
He mentioned with regret the death
of Rev. W. G. Davenport, the Wash
ington rector who died while in at
tendance at the convention. The
bishops face frightened as he added
that no one should feel sorry for him.
"as he was happy when death called
him while in the midst of his duty,
and 1 know that he is happy now"
Rev. McKim related his experiences,
saying that it was indeed momen-
tous convention, one that would go
down in history. He spoke of the
visit of Cardinal MERCER and the at
tempted revisions of the prayer book.
He stated that no important changes
were made. of which fact. he said. he
was glad.
Rev. C. r. Stetson, Rev. Robert Tai
bot and Arthur Browne concluded the
speaking of the evening, each giving
some incidents of the convention. all
exemplifying the unity shown by the
clergy and laity in Detroit.
Thirty new members were elected
to the league, and plans for continu-
ing the membership drive were dis
cussed. DR.. Marcus Benjamin, presi-
dent, suggested that each rector try
to secure additional members in his
own congregation. Following the
announcement that the next meeting
would be held Tuesday evening. jan
uary 81, the meeting adjourned. A
buffet luncheon was served.

CHINA NOT LAND OF HUSTLE
Traveller in That Country Must Possess
Generous Amount Of Patience
and Tact.

Sooner or later, writes f. III. Wilson
In "A Naturalist in Western China"
the traveller in China must dispense
with the comforts and ~luXuries of
modern occidental methods of travel
and adapt himself to those more print
tive and decidedly less comfortable of
the oriental.
In the regions with which we have
to deal there Is nothing in the nature
Of wheeled vehicular traffic save only
the rude w~heelbarrows In use on the
Chengtu plain. There are no mule
caravans, and scarcely a riding pony
to be found. For overland travel there
is the native sedan-chair and ones own
legs; for river travel the native boat.
Patience, tact and abundance of
time are necessary and the wOuld-be
traveller lacking any of these essentials
should seek lands where less primitive
methods obtain. Endowed with the vir.
tues mentioned, and having unlimited
time at his disposal, he may travel
anywhere and everywhere in China in
safety, with considerable pleasure and
abundant profit in knowledge. With
her Industrious toiling millions, her old,
old civilization, her enormous natural
wealth and wondrous scenery, China
alternately charms and fascinates. irri-
tates and plunges into despair, all who
sojourn long within her borders.

The map of Europe was being re-
made as the year 1918 came to close.
The Czecho-Slovak republic was al
ready in existence before the close of
the war, having been recognized as an
independent belligerent government by
the United States, Great Britain,
France and Italy, but the coming of
peace saw the formal establishment of
this new government at Prague. The
end of the war also practically assured
the rising of a great new Poland, made
up of most, if not all, of the territory
divided up years ago among Germany,
Austria and Russia. Finland threw
off the shackles placed upon her by
Russia and out Of the turmoil of civil
war emerged as a free and independent
nation. The peoples Of other smaller
subject states asserted their independ-
ence.
Civil war continued to threaten the
new republic of China throughout the
year. Hsu Shih Chang was elected
president of the republic ON Septem
Der and during the next few months
reports indicated a possibility of an
agreement being reached betweeR the
B@Ethern and southern sections Of the
country.
Peru ard Chile were reported on the
brink of war during the closing weeks
of the year. The trouble between
these countries vss an outgrOwth of

Chile won TaOna and africa.

tugal, was shot and killed at Lisbon,
