careful perusal.

Referring to their intelligence and culture it is assorted that where whole districts ur peopled by Hakkas wo find communities maintaining quite as high a level of education and culture as can be found in the province. The artisans are as skilful as any in China. Strictly and inland people, they have not produced such great merchants as are found in Canton, Svatow, or Amoy, but there is capacity. The railroad between Chao- no reason to think that they lack business chonfa and Swatow was built by Hakka contractors and is now owned and largely manned by Hakkas The military genius of the race was not exhausted when it furnished the great leaders of the Taiping rebellion. The political aptitude of the Hakkas is unquestioned; they take to politics as naturally as do the Irish in America.

7-Exercise before breakfast;

Of late years the Hakkas have gone abroad in vast numbers. Next to the Cantonese, they are the most widely scattered of any of the Chinese. In some Hakka districts it would be easier to find a family where every male was abroad than to find one utterly unrepresented in foreign parts."
