A healthy vitality has characterised the birth of the Chinese Physical Culture Society. Within a very few months, it might almost be said weeks, of its first appearance it has won the attention of the Far Eastern World, and the fame of its exploits bids fair to eclipse even the precocity of the infant Hercules. As seen by those who are privileged to watch its early

that the organisation calls for comment or renders a consideration of its future necessary at the present juncture.

As a Physical Colture Society the reccal procession of the corps through the streets of the Settlement afforded a gratifying display to' some thousands of onlookers; but it is given In be understood that its energies are not meant to be restricted exclusively to occasional paraules. Raised already to the paper dignity of a Volosteer Corps, it is referred to as an invaluable 'source of protection to Shanghai, To carry out the functions implied in this expression the' corps would have to be fally equipped, and at once the question of its locus stand is raised. Outside the limits of the Seulement, such a corps would constitute a practical and picturesque incident in the more recent evolution of China and would call for Bule nore than the academic interest of the inreign population. It is when the Chinese. Volunteers themselves or the protnoters of the movement claim that they are a valuable addı- tion to the security of life and property in the Settlement that a'clearer understanding of their status seems required, The maintenance- of order in the Settlement is vested in the Ma.. nicipal Council which relies for this purpaja on the palice and, if need be, an the foreign volun: teers. There are absolutely no grounds for sup posing, it may be mentioned in passing, that these forces are not amply sufficient for the purpose, Within the limits of the Settlement, only nee authority is recognised and in cases of einerg. ency, when the services of the volunteers are required in addition to the ordinary police. the command of these forces will be delegated to the enmmandant. An independent.body acting on its own initiative is out of the ques tion and could not be tolerated for one mo. ment, Where, then, it will be asked, is there scope for the Chinese Volunteers? From a purely military point of view there can be only one way which would enable the services of these men to be employed in the circumstances. contemplated-They would have to limit their numbers to a moderate fure, and from the outset they must be under foreign officers and non-commissioned officers, in order, that there might be homogeneity of system and the necessary understanding between the com-

mandant and his subordinates. In other words, if the corps is anxious for employment in the Foreign Seulement they must come in on the Settlement's terms. It is open to doubt whether this stipulation would be acceptable to the Chinese Volunteers, for it would un doubtedly introduce into the existing organisa. tinn an element, hardly contemplated by the originators."

The fact that the Chinese Volunteer Corps: will not be available for practical purposes within the limits of the Settlement need not in and way damp its enthusiasm.
