"The in aidjous growth of American words and expressions in this country is becoming more and more per- Cusceptible," writes W. G. Faulkner in the London "Daily Mail,” "and it is directly due to the development of the moving-picture business." It seems that the men in control of this business in Eng- land are either Americans or Englishmen who have lived in the United States." Consequently. not only have scores of Amer-` loan slang terms invaded the picture theatre, where they are

Daily News," in which he discusses the factors that make up the condi tions now existing in China. In the light of recent happenings it is impossible not to share in Mr. Drummond's pessimism regard- ing the immediate future. The high hopes of reform and pro gress to which the overthrow of the Manchu dynasty gave birth, both at home and abroad, have been grievously disappointed.. "All the old evils that exi-ter onder the Manchu monarchy,' Mr. Drummond writes, "exist still, some in an exaggerated form, and the people of China, and the outside world look vainly, so far, for reform." There exista na. happily much to support this view though it could not reaso0- ably have been expected that these evils would disappear on the dawn of the Republic as if by some magic wand.
