How is this for unadulterated courage in the face of even worse than death? Here it is.
I am really afraid for you," said the Generalissimo.
On hearing this Chang's face de-suddenly, changed colour, He said. "Are you still so obstinate?"
"It will be ve years at least before London will again have the chance of welcoming the Conven- tion:" he added. "Or the 2 pre- vious Conventions, only one has been held in Britain-that at Edinburgh in 1931. There will be 1,000 British delegates at Nice.?
Mr. Burley stated that the Con- vention would bring a miniature boom to Nice. Hotels which have. been closed for years, owing to the depression, are reopening for the occasion. The French postal au- thorities are commemorating the Convention by the issue of a special postage stamp.

If you are a brave man, kill me; if not, confess your sins and let me go. If you do neither, you will be in a dangerous position. Why don't you kill me now?" ·
When (Chang) heard this, he was downcast and remained silent. After a while he asked: "Why don't you give more thought to this mat- ter? I am going."

GOOD WISHES After seeing the ship the guests found that cocktails and light re- freshments were being served an the upper deck. There were calls for a speech, and on behalf of the visitors Mr. Dreyer proposed the health of the Captain, the Officers and the crew saying. "On behalf of all the guests I wish to offer my congratulations to the Captain the Officers and the crew of this splendid ship and to wish them a most successful. voyage, and. 10 propose their very good health "
