NO DISTINCTION
 OF CLASS MADE
 AMONG CHINESE

Westerners are almost universally convinced that China is a land of classes and castes and of closely drawn social distinctions; yet nothing cou be more untrue or unjust. As a mat ter of fact, the word ''coolie'' is not Chinese, and, outside of the narrow coast belt of foreign influence, there is no Chinese word which describes such a class.
 The poor are "those who eat bit terness,'' or "those deserving pity" Iaborers are described as 1aborers, and have their dignity; farmers rank high in the social scale, and beggars have their individual merits. But no term serves to describe what the European calls the "coolie class" and in Chinese thought it is non-existent. In China no hereditary class survived the wreck of the feudaI system in the third century, B. C., but the members of the mperiaI family and the de- cendants Of Confucius.
 There is no country in which wealth is so much sought after and so care fully handled as in China, and yet none in which money plays so small part in determining a mans social status. There is no country. again, in which ancestors are so much rev erenced as in China, and yet none in which mans forefathers and their achievements have so little influence upon popular esteem. Tn each gen. eration the individual is judged on his merits, and, apart from moral ex- cellence, merit in China means schoI- arship.
 The highest title in the land is no higher than that of teacher The son of the barrow coolie who makes himself a master of Chinese erudi- ton may converse and dine with the Iordly, though his gown is faded and greasy, and his poverty forces him to tell stories for a livelihood.

count of the points allotted by the complicated system will be necessary before the world officially knows which is the better man, but it ap. pears that the Norwegian has a slight advantage in the contest which consisted of 10 events de signed to show best the measure of an athlete.
 Whichever of the two is awarded the cup donated by the late Russian emperor for the decathlon, and which Jim Thorpe had to forfeit at Stock holm to Weislander of Sweden in 1912 because of the charge of pro fessionalism there is so little diff ference that both Hamilton and Loveland may be justly proud oi their laurels.
 Although Loveland failed to score q single first, he made equally good time with several others in the dashes and his performance, in the high jump, pole vault, the 1,500 me tres and the shot put and discus were so consistent that he obtained second, third or fourth. He thus ap- parently outpointed Hamilton, who won first in the shot put and the 100 metres and did well in the broad jump, the javelin and discus, but got only seventh in the 1,5OO metres and eleventh in the high jump.
 At the finish of the 1,5OO metres the tenth event in the two days Hamilton fairly staggered into tho the field.
 It was the same story with the other ten competitors who surviv- ed the preliminaries.
 In addition to Hamilton's bitter two days battle to defeat Loveland the other American athletes made an excellent showing during a gold raw eight hour competition in the oth- CT events. Six places for total of 21 points were captured out of a possible IS in the three finals today These consisted of first and second in the 56pound weight; third and fifth in the 5000 metre walk and fifth and sixth in the hop, step and jump
 American four man teams qualified for the final of the discus, with the third and fourth best throws.
 Aside from Hamilton's exhibition the best performances were those of Babe" Mcdonald, the biggest man on the team, if not on the entire en- try list, with the fastest kind o' walkers, the Italian Frigerio, and the Austrian Parker, capturing third place in the 5000 meters.
