PRICE CASKETS
UP 400PER CENT
Result of Influenza Epidemic In The
District OF Hangtung, China,
Causes Shortage OF Caskets.
Associated Press

HANGTUNG, CHINA, Feb. 21-
The influenza epidemic in this dis
trict has caused so many deaths that
there is a shortage of caskets and
their price has risen 400 per cent in
recent weeks.
Because of this many bodies have
been buried in shrouds only, pract-
ice uncommon even among the poorest
Chinese. Another departure that has
been forced upon the people by the
existing situation is that Feng Shut,
or the practice Of geomancy in con-
nection with funerals by which grave
sites and times of burial and other
details are determined, being ignored
for the first time, for no longer can
notice be taken of lucky or unlucky
days for holding funerals. Whole
households are being wiped out by the
epidemic.

THE UNIVERSITY
STUDENT CAN BE
Successful In Study, Sports And So
cial Life, Though Compelled to Work
His Way Through College.
Associated Press

Boston, Feb. 21-A student in an
American university can be successful
in study, sports and social life even
wkc1 compelled to support himself
throughout his college career, accord
ing to the findings of an inquiry con-
Quoted at Harvard. Poverty, the in
vsetlgators report, is not an insu-
perable barrier to students who have
initiative and courage.
The inquiry showed that some self
supporting students earned $4,000 OF
more in their four years at the uni
versity and that it was not unusual
for a student to earn $4,000, stand
well in his classes and be leader ir
student activities.
One man who earned the latter sum
belonged to four college clubs, rowed
on the varsity crew and was among
the best known men at college. Anoth-
er who earned a similar amount was
an officer of his class, was elected to
three clubs, sang on the Glee Club
and was first marshal of Phi Beta
Kappa. A student who earned his
way from start to finish and was cap
tain of the university team told The
inquirers that the fact that he was
self-supporting did not, SO far as he
knew, exclude him from any of the
club life at college. In fact every man
interviewed, except two, said the self
supporting student was at no disad-
vantage nor under any social stigma
On the contrary, many stated that
college men were likely to admire q
man more because he was earning his
way.
Some Of the occupations which en-
abled Harvard men to pay their way
were those Of waiter, tutor, reporter
artists model, bookkeeper, farm la.
borer, organist, choir singer, clerk
musician in orchestra, editorial wri
ter, librarian, social service worker
ticket taker, atheletic coach, physical
director, tire builder, and steward
The easiest way for a self-support
ing student to earn his expenses with
minimum expenditure of me was
tutoring or acting as tutor-com
pal..on.

BISHOP WELDON
DEAN OF DURHAM
Says In An Interview That Society Is
Threatened By Forces Which Rep
udiate The Christian Faith"
Associated Press

LONDON, Feb. 21-Bishop Well
don, Dean of Durham, declares in an
interview that society is threatened
by forces which repudiate the Christ
ian faith" The Bishop has just re-
turned from a conference on Christian
reunion at Oxford which was attended
by both conformist and non-conform-
ist ministers. There was a general a
greement, he stated, as to the necessi-
ty of drawing churches together
''The world is rocking under mems
feet he said. Society is threatened
by forces which repudiate the christ
ian faith and the christian moral
code The church runs a grave risk of
losing her influence upon national life,
the decadance of regular church-goi
has long been a cause of anxiety. The
statistics Of divorce are alarming and
it may be necessary to rebuild human
morals from the foundation.
Meanwhile the church is disregard
ed because she is divided. It is too
much to expect that the world will
listen to her when she speaks with
many discordant voices. Unity alone
will be the secret of her power. The
same need which has driven political
parties to coalition, drives reformed
churches to federation. The opportu-
nifty has come with the necessity. II
is now or never. If ecclesiastical
craftsmanship does not avail itself Of
the spirit excited by war, the chance
of Christian reunion of Christian in.
tercommunion will be lost and may
not recur in the life of the living
people,"
