CHINA RE-VISITED
"The Old Order Changeth"
(Special From Our Own Correspondent.) `
Klukiang, November 23.
A recent trip into Central Au Hwel, after an absence of Ave years, revealed not a few important changes, which will be of `special interest to those who knew that part only under the old
order.
Briefly the itinerary was as follows:-Chinklang to Nanking by express, a matter of one and a half hours. Here one was struck pleasantly by the order and efficiency of those whose duty it is, to help travellers, and, with the minimum of delay, we found our- selves covering with all possible speed the five miles that stretch between Hsia Kuan near, the”“Yangisi, and the city of Nanking Much of interest Jines that broad motor road, and busts constant- ly ply back and forth, keeping easy communication between the port and the city,

The next stage of the journey was by bus from Suan Chêng Hsien to within 40 11 of Lang Ki Hsien. This bus maintains a daily ser- vice with Kwangteh Cheo, on the Cheklang trontier. This has been some time; and the running for bus attested the fact.
We were not sorry to be on terra firma. We had expected to find richas, which usually meet this bus, but on that particular day not one was in sight. This, however, afforded us an op- portunity to help the Chairbearers but as only one chair was within of us call, and there were two we overcame the difficulty by shar- ing.
