Bandit Problem Meets
Grin, Solution In China
Indianapolis Woman Tells of Oriental Idea
of Strict Justice.

I blaze Of color, figures portraying differ
| ent trades and Chinese characters. Be-
sides the shops. peddlers display their
wares outside, keeping up an incessant
cry throughout the day. On top Of this
noise and colorful atmosphere try to
imagine the different odors that come
from the chow houses along the street
and you have a faint idea of a typical
street in China
History speaks Of this country now
as a republic, but 1t is really a monarchy
Of the most rigid kind. Chang Tso- lin,
the governor Moukden and Fengtien
Province, is really an uncrowned king
and governs the people just as he pleases.
EIGHTEEN BANDITS
PUBLICLY EXECUTED.
IF you like gruesome stories, here's
one that is a prize winner, and though
it may sound like a story 1t is an abb
solute fact. Eighteen bandits, who had
robbed and mistreated some of Chang
Tso-Lin's soldiers, were arrested and
executed publicly on the parade grounds,
within a stones throw of our house.
/ They were not merely shot or beheaded,
but put in bonds and the flesh sliced
from their bodies until they were dead.
1t doesn't seem possible that in this day
and age such atrocities should take place,
but I suppose that is their idea Of JUS
tice
Il attended my first real Chinese din
ner about a week ago, and though all
the dishes were not as appetizing as they
are around your own table, I enjoyed il
immensely. The Standard Oil Company
gives a feast to its agents every year and
by special cOnces sion this year a few
Ia dies were allowed to be present. OF
course it is against custom for ladies
to sit at the same table or even in the
same room with the men, but we were
in an adjoining room and could see all
| that was taking place, as well as par
| taking of all the food.
! CENTURY EGGS
DELICACY.
without exaggeration there were about
| thirty five courses. most prominent among
them being such delicacies as sharks
! fms, birds nest soup, sea slugs, lotus
seed salad and century eggs. Century
| eggs are eggs that have been packed in
! lime and buried in the ground for years
{ and years. The only that we were given
were small silver bowls and chop sticks
/ The food is put in the center Of the
table in large bowls and the table eti-
quette, as we know it, is entirely forgot
. leH' Ior every one reaches out into Une
center Of the cable and helps himself to
whatever looks appedzing, and so the
dinner progresses.
The foreign community is growing
! rapidly and time certainly doesn't lag
here. The club is the center OF social
life and there is nearly always something
to do. There are large tennis courts on
the grounds. These were flooded this
winter and I enjoyed some excellent
skating. We are not altogether isolated
from the theatrical world, either, fos we
have movies once a week at the club. The
club owns machine and the pictures are
rented from a thcater in Tientsin."
