WHAT- CHINA BEADS.

On this subject the Rov. Donald Me Gillivray, of the Christian Literature Society, at Shanghai, writes to the N-C Daily News on interesting letter com. menting on a leading article in our con- comporary based on statements reported to have been made by a Chinese resident in London. Mr. McGillivray writes:

Our Serily has had for years unrival (ed opportunities for ascertaining the attitude of educated Chinese towards the translation of English books. It should be pointed out that the Chinese resident of London refers to translations only. whereas most of war books are adaptation: to Chinese rouders, us par Society Ins always hold that more translations fail of their purpose. Your readers must not suppose that those who are preparing Christian literature have selected the acknowledged Classics in the sense of your article. Shakespeare, Byron, Dickens, Jerome K. Jerome, Thackeray, and even Scott, will, it is safe to say, nover form part of our programme, These authors if read at all will be read by the Chinese in. the original. No good purpose would he served by translating them even if such an attempt were. practicable.

The Chinese resident of the interview in London, I am glad to see, appreciates the difficulty of such work on account of "the insistence by educated renders on an almost prohibitive standard of scholar- "Such Societies as ours, owing to ship. the limited extenti of their normal 7690 NICS, can scarcely pay the high salaries demanded by first class Chinese stylists, In pre-reform days a high standard of style was demanded, but Now. according to the ancient models. adays the demand is equally high, though it is for a modern style, and men who can write a clear, nervous, and lively

essay with the aroma of modernity are in brisk demand at high salaries. Our Bociety is therefore, as much as ever bumpered by the difficulty of securing writers of the necessary standard. Unless more liberally supported, our literature is upt to be condemned forever

Our Society's policy provides for the sort of discipling which you say young Chinese should have adopted so as to prepare them for the tremendous task of the new day.
