'KLWANIS CLUB
/ 5 ADDRESSED
BY MISSIONARY

The Mexican peso, worth about SO
cents in American money, is legal
tender in Shanghai, China, where the
American dollar is unknown and
spurned, was one of the interesting
statements in brief address at the
Kiwanis luncheon yesterday by H. L.
| Clark, for seven years a missionary
in China. Clark is now touring the
southwest under the auspices of the
Y. M c. A.
Clark explained that some 60 or 80
years ago considerable quantity of
Mexican money was exported to China
and absorbed into the currency there.
1t is still in circulation, the pesos be-
ing commonly referred to as Mex"
Some other interesting remarks
about China, CLEANED from Clark's ad-
dress, follow:
Rats are not a stable article of
Chinese diet, although during periods
of famine a starving Chinese may re-
sort to rat meat to stave off death.
Opium is looked on with disapproval
and occupies much the same position
in China as do alcoholic liquors III
America. Opium is condemned Of
ficially, although it is "bootlegged"
among the Chinese users.
Chop suey is considered an American
dish and is occasionally found in
restaurants. catering to American
trade The Chinese feasts consists Of
20 or 25 courses.
Prepared watermelon seeds are to
China what chewing gum is to Amer
lea.
Clark gave the highest praise to
the Chinese for their industry, in
telligence and adaptibility. Chinese
business executives, he said, are the
equals of their brothers in America,
England, Germany or France.
1.-THE next era of world civilization"
Clark declared, will center about the
Pacific basin, with America and China
leading the world China is rapidly
catching up with us now. When she
ACQUIRES the same facility in using the
machine as we have, she will be able
to meet us on an equal footing, 1or
in other lines of human activity she is
already abreast of us. In some things
she is far ahead of us now
Verhearst was followed by Ernest
Nichol, nationally known whistler,
who gave two classical numbers With
orchestra accompaniment on phono-
graph. Nichol, who spent yesterday
in Douglas, is on concert tour OF
the southwest.
The program was rounded out with
an address by H. L. Clark, for many
years q missionary and Y. M. G. A.
worker in China. 1t was announced
