CHINESE CUSTOMS
PROFESSOR OF PHYSICS GIVES
INTERESTING TALK ON
CHINESE CHARACTER.

An exceptionally interesting talk or
conditions and customs of present day
China was given before the student
body today by Prof. G. l.. Luke Of
the phyics department., Professor
Luke spent several years in the orient
and displayed rich store of infor-
nation and impressions.
Gas soon as boy is born in China
Prof. Luke said, "his parents begin
seeking a wife for him and soon con-
tract for the daughter of some family
for as small amount as possible. The
rank and file think almost entirely in
terms of production and as daughter
is a nonproducer her parents negoti-
ate contract for her marriage as
quickly, and for as much, as they
can. In nearly all cases the girl is
bought
"Four or five generations of one
family uually occupy the same house,
the father or oldest person acting as
the advisor and judge. The income of
each member of the household is turn
ed over to him. for the payment Of
expenses and distribution of the bal
ance.
"The head of a Chinese home edu-
Gates his son as much as possible as
he realizes it will increase his earning
power, and this thought is forever in
the fathers mind.
"For the most part, the houses are
poorly constructed and often crumble
under their own weight This alone
takes a huge number of lives yearly
The streets are about as wide as our
and are filled with people
night and day.
Because of the overpopulated con-
dition, many Of the Chinese do not
look seriously upon a death, even in
their own household. For killing a
person, one is required to pay the
dead mans relatives $20." To show
the attitude of the populous the
life savers at dangerous rapids is
paid more money, for saving dead !
body than live one. One man took |
he overcrowded condition of the coun- |
;ry so seriously that he organized a /
Suicide Club" in which each member,
after killing certain number of peo
)le, was required to take his own life.
"Athletics are growing more and
more popular. Soccer football leads
he list of sports. The American
,ame is frowned upon as it is too
ough. Baseball and basketball are
,layed considerably and gymnasium
york is being taken up gradually"
The speaker closed by saying he
hought the China situation would
ever be solved until the United Sta
es gave aid.
