It is strange that we, as a ma tion, begin to take sution "after a great calamity has happened, involving loss of life that could have been averted had those who ale us enly listened to the voice of those who knew.

Brithers, and Allisa, resident in the Cosat Forta of China (snd even in Hongkong) may comfort themselves with the knowledge that the present subjects of His Satanic Majesty Kuser-Wilhelm (the last of his race as a ruler we hope), will eventually be removed from China, just as certain was the Prisoners of War were eventually removed from Kowloon.

Meantime let us pray that the words of The Latany may be heard,That it may please thee to endue the Lords of the Council with grace, wisdom and undegat- anding."

Many of our Councillors at home want wisdom and underst anding of affairs în China.
