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

Sooner or later, writes e. H. 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 wheelbarrows in use on the
Chengtu plain. There are no mule
caravans, and scarcely q 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 an! ~fasciaates. irri-
tates and plunges i.!to despair. all who
soJourn long within her borders.

NEVER SAW the sUWANEE
Writer Of Popular Song Used Name
Because Rhythmic Sound Of IL
Appealed 70 Him.

The song, "Old Folks at Home
made the name of "Swanee River" ia
nous but few people, except those Of
Florida and Georgia, Connect the
Swanee of the song with the Suwanee
that flows from the southern SWamps
of Georgia down through the wood
lands of Florida to empty into the Gulf
Of Mexico.
"Way down upon the Swanee river"
suggests vaguely the South Of the ante
bellum days with its cotton plantations,
it's mansions and negro cabins. None
of these things are found along the Su-
vance. Yet FlOridans claim that the
song was written in honor Of their for
est stream, and boatmen ever point
out a tree under which Stephen Eos
ter is supposed to have penned the
memorable lines. Reports less pic
turesque, but more generally accepted,
say that Foster never saw Suwanee
river, but that he used the name be-
cause of the rhythmic sound, dropping
the III" to perfect the meter.
While the Suwanee river may not
be what Its name suggests to most OF
us, 1t is a beautiful stream, flowing
through q. s~emi-tropical country where
live-oaks and expresses are mirrored
in its clear depths. Heavy forests of
cedar also grow In its valley, but these
have been reduced in recent years, as
the wood is in great demand for pen
Gil making.
The Suwanee figured largely In
early American history, for 1t was a
favorite haunt Of the Indians, and
many battles with the red men We're
fought In it's valleys.
The name Suwanee has an Indian
sound, but it IS said to be a corrup-
ton of San Juan-a name given the
river by early Spanish explorers.

The hrst commission On Household
Employment made it, report ut the
NTH national convention Of the Young
Women's Christian Association held in
Los Angeles, Cal. in May, 1915.
The difficulties Of attracting capable
women in this field Of work were laid
to the long hourc, lack Of independence
Ia arranging recreation hours, lack Of
opportunities for growth and progress
and lack of social standing.
Girls have acquired a distaste for
the conditions which govern household
work since the freedom they have ex-
perienced in working in munition fac
tories. BY standardizing domestic serv-
ice 1t is believed by the Young Wo-
mems Christian Association that a
higher type Of worker may be at
tracted to the necessary work in homes.

ASSAULT AND THEFT
 CASES ARE TRIED
Pettinello Is Discharged and
 Welsh Pays $25 Fine

After listening to a lengthy story from both principals in the case ! Judge James T. Mes1ilI discharged , Henry Pettinello, a clerk in a Hart | ford avenue confectionery store who 1 was arrested last night by Officer : tanford Dart upon complaint of 1 JuleW1cz Levine on charges of assa ut. 1 It appeared that Levine was responsi- ble for the trouble that took place. 1 and his testimony and that of a friend, Mosen Mosen, was not con- l vincing.
 LeVines face this morning was a mass of adhesive plasters while Pet tinello bore no marks of tattle indi- eating a rather one-sided fight. The trouble started m the store into which Levine had gone in quest of a drink with his friend Mosen. His story ac- cused the clerk of unnecessarily de- laying in mixing two emon-and- lines and when asked to hurry, of calling Levine a drunkard. An argument en- sued and when Levine left the store the oth2c man followed, he claims. de- manding that they finish the argu- ment on the outside.
 The story told by Pettinel1o differed considerably, he alleging that Levine first called for some Red Seal cigars and while they were being procured for him he plnched the clerk in the back. This the clerk said he did not mind and when he was later called ''macarOni' with several prefixes he took that in the same mood, but when he was struck in the forehead by Le- vine for not hurrying he objected and struck back He then asked that Levine leave the store but instead of !, ,,,Jc of remaining and in the presence of women calling him some 'horrible names.'' When he went to wait on some customers on the outside of the store Levine followed and began to swing at him, drawing a big crowd. Pettinello then ended the fight by knocking the aggressor out into the road.
 A fine of s25 was imposed upon Walter Welsh, aged s, for the theft of an automobile tire and rim from a car owned by o. E. smith. The tire is alleged to have been taken Sunday night as the car was standing on Washington street a few feet from West Main street, and was recovered yesterday afternoon at Welsh's home by Officer Edward Riley
 The theft of the tire. which is val ued at $2O was reported to the police Sunday night by MT. Smith, and an investigation was conducted by the authorities. Yesterday information was received which connected Welsh with the loss of the tire and Officer Riley was sent to his home by Cap tain Grace. He reCc1 cred the tire and placed Welsh under arrest
 The accused had nothing to say this morning other than he was sOr- ry that he had committed the theft. Probation Officer Connolly was asked to secure a job for the boy and Welsh was Instructed 10 go to work.
