Chinese is taught by Doctor Liu in
semi-popular way, much as the Euro
pean languages are taught. 1t is com
paratively simple to obtain slight
working knowledge of the language

ing mysterious characters such as
those which grow on tea chests is
one of which the pupils never tire. In
time they expect to certain extent
to read Chinese poetry and philosophy
In the meantime they imbibe it from
Doctor Liu, who later is to arrange
special courses in Chinese poetry and
philosophy, with the aid of lecturers
from Columbia.
Doctor Liu believes that his work is
valuable in promoting mutual under
standing between Chinese and Ameri-
cans. He thinks each country can OBJ
tain Of the other something Of value
which it needs-that China can get
practical business methods from Amer
lea and America can feel the Quieting
influence of Chinese philosophy.
In the meantime, the American STU
dents of Chinese are absorbing knowl-
edge literally in a bamboo forest. It
is something like Shakespeare's
tongues in trees, books in running
brooks" At the Bamboo Forest the
students read-if they can make it out
Chinese poetry written on lacquered
tables, some of it by great national
poets and other verses contributed by
Doctor Liu himself. Big decorative
Chinese characters signifying "happi-
ness" or wisdom" cover the walls or
the bamboo poles which form the forest.

This forest is a Chinese tea garden

covered with Chinese characters were

Hope to Conquer the Most Deadly OF

succeeded in comforting immunity te

from convalescent patients.
"This may prove to be one OF the

of the Manchester Guardian. I'm his

only in it's mildest form and there was
no untoward result.
IF these results are confirmed and
the method can be effectively and gen.

even greater saving of life than has
accrued from Jenner's discovery OF
vaccination.

to be. the least controllable Of the
scourges which regularly affect our
people," the Guardians correspond
ent says warningly. with the pos
sible exception of influenza there is
no form of epidemic disease in face
OF which preventive medicine is so
helpless. The causes for this are
mainly two. In the first place the
disease is not only highly infective
hut its infectivity is highest before
the symptoms can be recognized. The
child which contracts measles has
three or four days in which to infect
his family, his friends and his school
fellows before it is known definitely
that he is suffering from measles at
all. The second cause is public apathy
and ignorance of the dangerous nature
of the complaint.
"Half century ago there appears
to have been some justification for
measles as trifing dis
order, something that every c.ild must
