China New Year.
We see every preparation made for the observance of China New Year as it has been the custom of the Chinese people to observe it. for long ages past by a eqooring of accounts, by fairs and festi vities and by a general holiday, in many cases, extending over several days. Even while half the world is at war the Chinese people in South China at least.
are content that the Chinese newspapers should entirely sus- pind publication for nine or ton days in honour of the new year." It was very aptly remarked by a Peking contemporary when allading to the observance of the new calendar in Peking aix weeks ago that a people who live so much in the past cannot part with old customs, old habits and.. old beliefs as readily as they get rid of old garments. Bat if the Central Government continues to exert its influence in the future as it has done in the past three years to secure the observance of the first of January instead of the first day of the year according to the old oalendar, the change will doahtless in time become more widely adopted for business purposes at least-but we do act believe that the Chinese people for many long years to come will cense to observe China New Year as a social festival.
