himself real diplomat by the

right with respect to the heather

Instead Of combining his efforts

to parley voos and pour parlers
with the gray-beards in the State
Department. SEE is making his
overtures straight to the youth Of
the country who will have the
shaping of our diplomacy in the
next generation.
As a part Of this idea, SEE has
presented to the Central High
school of Washington, in which he
was formerly student, a Chinese
room," which will keep constantly
before the pupils of the school an
object lesson on the art and culture
of his ancient country.
@&#
This Chinese room, built within
one of the regular class-rooms OF

panels are decorated with Chinese
characters setting forth the charac.
