ition into Yunnan, a vast and little
explored province in Southwestern
China.
\ Mr.. Rock, a well known plant au-
thority, has just returned to Wash
ington and in narrating his expert
ences. tells of finding in Yunnan abb
original tribes who still practice
religious ceremonies that pre-date the
introduction of Buddhism, and the
nut tree. which, it is hoped, will aid
timber crop In the United States.
The explorer brought back from
the wilds Of the Chinese province
some 100 specimens of birds, 500
mammal specimens and more than
$4,000 plants. He also came into
possession Of books used by the Nashi
or Moso, priests. containing ancient
writing in picture form. The books
also ante-date Buddhism in China
and Tibet and include a story OF a
great food.
During his adventures Mr.. Rock
traversed an hitherto UNEMPLOYED
gorge Of the Yangtze River. described
as much deeper than the Grand Cam
yon Of the Colorado. The crossing of
streams presented one Of the most
difficult problems OF the expedition,
Mr. Rock and his % native assistants
and pack animals having TO be swung
across them on singie-strand rope
bridges. The party also had narrow
escapes from bandits along the China
Tibet frontier.

who in years to come make a sor-

so many of our boys made the last

as chaplains, played a great but In

MAY this Church through the ages

that undying devotion which lives in
the hearts OF my countrymen.
In your work Of reconstruction
