The Chinese are the oldest living
nation in the world. and of all the
human family her people have the
longest story. They have probably in
vented and originated more than any
other people whose history we have
read. The people called Chinese are
q composite race formed of a hundred
tribes and nobody knows whence or
how the first settler came to China.
They are at present a frugal. tenn
perate, laborious people, who are in
yariably honest.
Rich Province
Shantung is one of the richest and
most beautiful provinces of the
Chinese Empire. a portion of which
consists of q mountainous promontorv
one hundred miles wide which pro-
jects eastward into the Yellow Sea for
nearly two hundred miles. The
province has an area of $500 square
miles and population of over 80. 600
600. Owing to the fact that it was
the birthplace Of both Confucius and
Mencius it has played an important
part in the history 9f the country.
Neither the Christian religion nor
our system of education has made
very much progress in Shantung. One
missionary of the Christian religion
declared that a Chinaman and an ele-
phant were alike. They would do

In 1878 a patent was granted for

small animals such as badgers, wolves,
foxes and several species of poisonous

Among the birds are the queer

Sketch of the Province In China Which May Cause
Trouble for the League of Nations.
-
80


NNE Of the smaller and yet quite
h 81 significant points in the Treaty
Eof Peace was the disposition Of
W The German interests or rights
IN China. on more than one occasion
the German Empire had used a trivial
matter as preteXt to extort from
China some territorial or commercial
concession. When the Great War
broke out Japan sided with the En-
tente, and proceeded 10 capture what
the Germans possessed on the main
land Of the Chinese Empire. In the
settlement Of many conflicting inter
ests and demands, Japan was given
the German holdings in the Province
Of Shantung. with all the rights and
privileges which that nation had ceded
TO Germany.
Birthplace OF Confucius
At the foot Of the imposing Tai. in
Western Shantung. the thrice blessed
bones Of Confucius have rested these
four thousand years Westward from
its mountain retreat the spirit of the
Sage-never to the mind of the de-
vout Chinese far distant from the hal
lowed spot-has viewed the wide
spread land which after many years
the Chinese were compelled to give
up. But not many miles from the
eternal hills, wild but peaceful in
their solitude, COMES the echo and the
Babel of international strife. This
has been ever since Germany exacted
this "a discipline of consequences" for
the lives OF the two German mis-
sionaries who were killed by a Boxer
mob in 1897. No martyrs were ever
more bitterly avenged. for there close
by the sacred spot where the head of
the Chinese religion rests. the Ger
mans built great city. and its Teu-

they fully understood it. NOW" he
said there are some things in the
Christian religion that one cannot ex-
plain, and it must be taken on faith.
Here is where the difficulty with the
| Chinaman comes in. He wants to
know"
Besides the Christian religion in
troduced by the Jesuits in the Sixth
, Century, and by missionaries many
years later. they have Confucianism,
! Buddhism, Taoism and Mohamme-
danism.
Confucianism has enjoyed state pa
tronage and protection for more than
/ 2.1O0 years. and is perhaps the most
popular. Enormous numbers of the
adult population cannot read or write.
The reform in education IS just now
occupying the minds of the educated
people of the nation. Hundreds of
men and women have been sent to
different parts of the world to receive
finishing courses, and Peking has a
fine university. Shantung has a few
schools, mainly those taught by mis-
sionaries. so life goes on there much
in the old-fashioned Chinese way, al
though all parts of China are waking
up. and those who saw China twenty
years ago and see it today find differ
ent China.
Ancestor Worship
Ancestor worship still exists, and as
this is one of the teachings of Con-
fucius. Shantung so near his grave is
perhaps one of the places 70 see 1t at
its best. Every Chinese household has
within Its doors an ancestral han.
shrine in which are deposited the tab
lets Of the deceased ancestors. Every
clan has also an ancestral temple which

In preparation for tomorrow s
game the locals have spent the week
in returning TO rudimentary football
and have greatly improved in tackl-

The first team scored three touch
downs in about as many minutes,
after which the ball was given to

noticeable gains.
Coach Mueller will not accompany
the Maroon and White when they
invade the down state camp, but his
position will be ably filled by c. A.

experience in coaching Mishawaka
