GUARD IMPROVES
Gen. Hammond Issues Reports on
National Units

Washington. Nov. "a. (UP)-Gen-
eral improvement in the efficiency
of the various National Guard units
throughout the country was noted by
Major General Greed C. Hammond,
chief of the Militia Bureau of the
War Department, in his annual re-
port made public tonight.
This improvement. according to
the report, was especially marked
in personnel. organization. train
ing and supply services and was
made possible despite restrictions
imposed by limitation of funds
available for the support of this
component"
Growth of the National Guard
personnel since the World War
was reflected in a table incorpor-
ated in the report which showed
that on June 80, 1919, there were
1920 guardsmen enrolled. which
figure was progressively increased
in each of the succeeding years un-
til on June 80. 1929. there were
1921 officers and men listed. The
program of 1929 and 1880. accord
ing to the report, provides for in
creases in the aggregate strength
to $4,000 and 100000. respectively.

circle Of Americans The Methodist
Mission board made use Of him in
the central Office In New York for
several years. At the same time he
became noted as a popular speaker
in Chautauqua circuits.
In 1922 he joined the stafr OF
Yenching university, a union Chris
tan university in Picking. Three of
the leading American missionary So
cietes-the American board. the
Methodist Mission board, and the
Presbyterian Mission board-and
one British society. the London Mis-
sionary Society of England, united
to establish first class university
for north China under Christian
auspices. For one year Mr.. Hung
was active in helping to secure funds
in America for this university. Re-
turning to China in 1923 as profess
sor of church history On the theolo-
gical school. he won the confidence
of his colleagues and the student
body SO fully that, although a young
man without extensive experience.
he was elected in the following year
as dean of the college of arts and
sciences and in this position gave
three years of service in raising the
standards of scholarship in the stu
dent body and guiding the develop
ment of the university. Mr.. Hung
was one OF the growing number Of
Chinese on the staff who, with their
American. British and European
colleagues. were eager to establish
a Christian university in which
Chinese leadership should be funda-
mental. During the years of Mr..
lungs deanship, the university was
reorganized in several particulars so
that eventually 1t was albe to regis
ter under the ministry OF education
of China, the first Christian college
to be accepted in that way.
In 1927 Mr.. Hung resigned from
the deanship in order to devote him
self particularly to the development
of the department of history and of
the university library. his work
being notable in each of these fields.
In 1928. upon the establishment of
Harvard Yenching institute devoted
to the development of Christian cul
ture in China and to the interpreted
ton of Chinese culture in America,
Mr.. Hung was invited to Harvard
| university as one OF the visiting lee
turers of the institute In the sum-
mer Of 1929 he expects to return to
China to continue his work in the
department of history
Mr.. Hung is an effective interpre-
ter of Chinese culture and a popular
speaker before American audiences.
He is himself typical OF the new
| China in which the Christian dyna-
mic is at work moulding the values
of China's heritage and those Of
modern western civilization toward
the creation of distinctive Chinese
culture in the modern world.
Mr.. Hung has chosen as his sub
ject THE Chinese Government To-
day'-what it is and what it is try
ing to do.

them in hundreds into the turbine

The turbines slowed down. all lights

nearly all activity ceased. En-

NOAH COUNT GETS FINE HOOKING JANE:
She Works in a Bank Says
 Letter to Andy
(Contributed)


 Dear Andy bale:
 Ii you was out our way last Sun day afternoon grabbing the fresh air and sunshine you Woulda probably seen me all dolled up like a drug store cowboy and the swell looking jane that was tripping along beside me. Maybe some day I'll give you a knock down 10 this sweet lovln mamma but untll then they ain't any harm in telling you how come We got acquainted and took 10 wearing out shoe leather. It happened the day l was standing on the curb wait ing for the traffic light to change sos l could cross the street. when jane absent-nlndedly steps off the sidewalk just as a big truck swings around the corner without warning The driver lamS on the brakes with q screech that COulda been heard in family argument and for q second it looked like the jane was gonna get tossed for q forward pass or maybe a yard loss. Being faster on my pins than Man-o-War in his boyhood days ] dashcs out and grabs her in both husky arms in the nick Of time and drags her safely to the curb. Alter she got her reeling senses collected and her hat on straight she thanks me for saving her life or whatever I did in such a . manner that my heart does a loop the-loop and then begins missing on | two cylinders.
 ! She also handed me a smile that woulda made any guy loose the firm 1 hold on the bachelor stuff and slip ! with both feet. l grins and tells her 1 not to mention il as it was nothing and the pleasure was all on my side of the street. Her conversation flows freely after the scare and she tells me she's got a position in a bank running up and down columns of figures and keeping track Of other peoples money, etc. She used words more carefully chosen than a | college professors during working 1 hours but that don't shove me back ] into a corner as I've gone to night school and knows my ginger cookies. l Bringing my company manners for" ward l says, What say you kid, to a date some time, mostly evening, |, at your earliest convenience, which f also includes mine."
 I guess she figures that I'm fresher than Hartford football fan in the 1 New Britain cheering section be- cause she hands me d five degrc" below zero stare that catches me off guard and almost freezes me solid. [ realizes I made a bigger mistake than the guy who tried to drive his touring hivver car under a moving van without first removing the top. They's no use crying over split milk that has already splashed to the floor and so I says. Pm sorry I hurt your feelings but it was for your own good as l like to See you in safe company
 She sees l ain't trying to kid her along and her map lights mp in an- other heart weakening smile that | knocked me diZzicr than usual and says I'm welcome to call and meet her family, etc. She grins as past experience makes me aeE if her old ! man usually stays at home, does he wear large pointed shoes. and has he ever been known to use them for other purposes than walking. Woll. the following evening l calls at her street address, knocks at the door
 l.; l,,r answers the knock and says, "Watcha want" D" I asks, Does Miss Magncsia live here"
