CHINA's NEW ALPHABET.

It is a curious fact that China
the mother of language, and in
deed of civilization, has main
tanned through the centuries a
language and an alphabet the
clumsiest of any in the world.
a thorough knowledge of the
written tongue it has taken
most students six or seven
years of an intense. life of study
to attain.
From 10000 characters the al
phabet has recently been re-
duced to 40. Sentences hence
forth viii be written in words,
not delicately shaded express
ions Of ideas. Written Chinese
has been simplifed a thousand
fold. Literacy should increase
in proportion.
The language, goodness knows,
is intricate enough. The single
syllable "ho" has five pronuneia-
tons and six or seven meanings.
It is an average example. But
though a common man in Chi
ma might learn the subtleties Of
speech, he has seldom had the
leisure or the wealth to learn to
read and write.
Watch China. The youth of
her next generation will be bet
ter educated, more alert and
more self-reliant than their faith
ers. A nation that can cut it's
alphabet to one-thousandth of
its former content is looking to
the future, not the past.

negotiating a separate German
