THE CANDIAN SATESPAEBOWMNVILLE EMINENT CHINESE DIPLOMÀ.TI PAGE THRE~i Give8 Instructive and Entertaining Addres8 on China Dr. Tehy1 Hsieh, erinent Chinese 6tatesman, graduate of Cambridge University, and a figure of world- wide distinction, spoke in the Chau- tauqua tent on Wednesday evening on the subject "Awakening China." Dr. Hsieh proved to be one of the speakers to whom one "has to lis-. ten" and he held the close attention ofbth adults and children t.hrough- out his address, which was deliveoeed ~ ith an inimitable ease, a charniing manner, and a clear conception of numan nature, and was interspersed Mit flashes of scintillating hunior. Vivýdly he pictured the reforma- tion that has taken place in China. The country has awakened froin her sleep and no longer bars the way to her sister countries. Whereas China stood "back to back" with the rest of the world, now she stands "face to face" with the world. China is becoming educated along modern lines, is rapidly developing and re- constructinz upon the pasr. The true Chinese, who have been oPpresr4ed and crowded out by Mon- golia. Manchuria, etc., are coming into their own. The thourand.- of undeveloped acres in China are be- ing opened up and in 3.3 (), 40 ycars these ill absorb ail the Chinese I laundrymen, cooks, etc. in Canada, who -vill return to the honmeand. 1 Dr. Hsieh declared that it was not j the British but the Arabs an dPers-1 lans wh:u first brought the great j cur-Se of oPium to his country. He told of -he friendship of Chinaj for the BrNýsh and of the improba- bilitY of war bet-ween the two great nations, for the Chinese are some-ý what like the British, slow tempered and easy going. For example, the reformation in China had been ai bloodiess revolution. won by means 'f books and pamphlets. instead of lead and bullets. Dr. Hsieh pro-1 phesied that Great Britain and China would henceforth stand hand in hand to help the world. The speaker first appeared upon the platfornm in the native dress of China, which he threw off disclosing the foi-mal attire of a distinguished modemn gentleman. This was an apt illustration of the way in which China has thrown off the custonms, dress and bonds of the old reginie and adopte.d the modern civilization. THE MAKING 0F A SOLDIER -As Related by a Padre of thse Worid War On Thursday afternoon Capt. Nor-J mn Rawson. noted Ontario lecturer,J addresse-d Chautauqua patrons on "~The Making of a Soldier." Captain Rawson' / recital of his experiencesi during the Great War was extremelyj interesting and illuminating, and là7,en in an easy, '%i tty nianner,l 9w attracted the close attention oymaudience. Underneath the humor, however, one gained a clear nsght into the quality, the courage o f the soldier. The speaker elicited manx- laughs frein the audience as he rec)unted the difficulties he hadj in getting into the army at the out.break of the great war, as he to-Id of the passage across the ocean and his experiences in the tra ining camp. He told graphically the story of the bravery and endurance of the English wom- en who were forced to do without the luxuries, sometinies the necessi- ties, of life, to w,&hich they had been accustomed; of their kindness to t.he soldier, and neyer failing cheerful- ness; declaring "If it had flot been for the women of England, we would neyer have won the war." Capt. Rawson affirmed that the courage of the soldier lay, flot in t.he fact that he was not afiraid, but that lie did not show his fear. He als'o contradicted the stateinent, so often heard, that everyone had to drink, amoke, etc., in the army, declared that there was no neceôsity of it and that a total abstainer was just as much tespected as any one else. The tro-ops were very religiaus, he declar- ed, and to]d of the song services at night when even the roughest and wildest jqined in hynins and prayer. Captain Rawson asserted that the real, tihe nlost pitiable casualties of the war, were not those who returned minus a leg, or an airn, but those who had been taken in the formative period of their youth and who e- turned "burnt ýout" after four years of horror to a changed world upon whieh tbey gazed with dull, unseeing eyes, unable to adjust theniselves or to find wcrk they could do, having lost aIl initiative and enterprise. In closing Captain Rawson em-- phatically declared that no disarma- mnent, peace pacts, etc., w'ould bring SALE STARTS THURSDAY AUGUST 1 st C ILCHRIST'ys BIG AUGUST SALE Wonderlul Bargains From Every Department MEN'S COMBINATION UNDERWEAR at 79c Men'.
