He knows the wheel that most of the other boys are riding. He knows which bicycle is ﬁrst up the hill, which coasts ilrthest, which is fastest on the level, easiest riding on the long hike, quickest to get started in the sprints, most per- fectly controlled going down steep hills. Boys who own C-C-M-‘s have "told the world" these things and your boy knows.

The Chinese have over ssld, “Long united we divide. Long divided we unite." And so it will be in the near future, unless Western action in China should be altered. There has never been com- plete cohesion oflall the people of Chins except when confronted with the possibility of a calamity likely to threaten the continuance of national existence. The unrest in China which all the papers have lieralded—tlils seeming disintegra- tion—lins been present tor thous- ands or years, but it has neverdone any real ‘Larm. ln its apparently very ominous smoke is the ever growing flame oi’ patriotism which —-at the psychological moment (and it may be at the least expect- eii time) will burst out and inciner- ate anything from outside in tho way of a real threat to the continir ed national independent existence 0t‘ the State. Everything written about Chins bristles with contra- dlcllons-ahuse and ridicule on the one hand and ecstacy on the other. l\\"e read yesterday of "the miser- able, abject race under brutal war lord brlgands," and to-morrow we ‘shall probably read or the wonder- lul people whose institutions are based on flllal piety. -1Vll<lwiiy is the lrillli.
