MILITARY SPIRIT NOW

DYING OUT!

Members of the Central Union of Chinese Students held their annual dinner at the Connaught Room under the presidency of Dr. R. K.§..

Lim.

Sir John Jordan, responding to the toast of "The Guests," proposed by the chairman, said that when be remembered the old examination halla in Peking, with their 13 000 atudents locked up for three days, it seemed as if he were DOW living in an entirely new world. He was often asked what was the ranacea for all the illa of China and he always replied, "Time, patience, and Young China." China might seem to be: in something of a military mood at the moment, but he was confident that that spirit was dyingoat. (Chaera.}
