PREMIER'S' ADVICE.

Mr. Stanley Baldwin, in un article in the Advertising, World optimistically reviews the pros- pects of the restoration of trade If all work together, and says that our problem is to produce goods. and let the world know we have them. I have an fears on the pro duction side, but on the selling side we must, modernise our methods and employ the recent great developments in the art of advertising.

Mr. George Terrell, M.P., Presi- dent of the National Union of Manufacturers, in the same paper' contemplates the prospects of a boom in trade as being" most. bright on account of the increased costs of production on the con- tinent which will, seriously, affect the Continent's capacity to export. Therefore, there will be less of that fierce competition which for the past few years has been so disastrous-to-British-industry

TERRIBLE AFTER-BATTLE SCENES.

More samples of anti-Christian propaganda distributed by Shang- hai students in recent days are falling into the hands of the authorities. One particularly dis- tinctive pamphlet bears the title The ten erimes of Christianity" and contains some strange paser- tions regarding the motives and Christian ideas inspiring the religion.

One of the alleged crimes is the insult to womenhood by the Bible, assertion that the first woman was, horn from the rib of Adam, accord- ing to this pamphlet which, In addition to attribyling a large measure of China's ills to the introduction of Christianity, also
