The greatest single experiment in industrial
advance. that history has seen will occur in
China in the next thirty or forty years. The
Gospel always has been the forerunner.of in
dustrial development. It. is said that over
forty per cent of China's male population is
engaged directly or indirectly in transporta-j
tion, because all but a small per cent of her
products are carried by man-power. Vast1
products, no market, low prices, . crushing
poverty with wealth incalculable everywhere
undeveloped this is China. ' There is enough .
coal in a single province to. supply the world,
for centuries. Modern machinery, modern
methods, modern efficiency and scientific'
spirit China needs, but she is better without
these unless she has Christianity to guide, and
control her commercial and industrial ideals. K
He believes also that China is destined to ex
traordinary educational advancement and to the
nationalization of its thoughts. But what draws
him irresistibly, we suspect, is the eager wel
come China now gives the Christian religion.
He says that forty years ago Japan greatly de
sired Christian teaching but it was not supplied
adequately, whereupon Japan became the hard
est mfssionary nut in the world to crack, and
developed a pagan civilization which may cause
the world a great deal of trouble.
RURAL JOYS OR BRIGHT LIGHTS.
tVt knew of a man once who married on a
salaVy of a year, and lived in four rooms
of a new eight-room house, two up-stairs and
two .'down, for which he paid $3 a month rent.
He fiad an equal share ina big garden that
jielded all the vegetables he wanted in summer
and potatoes and tomatoes for all the year
around. ... And at tjhe.end of the year he was all
the wayt'fo $100 on 'the right side of the ledger.
. Within a year; he started a little business
of his' vn that ho wed $800 net profits the
first year.' He quadrupled the amount saved that
year over the net proceeds of the first year, and
started his third year of married life with $500
surplus. . Incredible, you say? Not so. This
young man lived in a village in the latter 80's,
and lived well according to the village-standards
He and his wife dressed as well as anybody in
their community; perhaps better, because he
had college ideas about clothes and was inclined
to be stylish. For four years the pair lived
very comfortably and happily on $400 a year
' until they moved to a much larger town. In
cidentally we may remark that after their wed-
rding presents had been scheduled with an eye
to their utility they found it necessary to spend
only $175 in order to go to housekeeping by
themselves.
- At that time a big wagon load of coal cost
- about $1.50 delivered, a suit of serviceable
clothes, $12; a "dress pattern" about $3; peaches,
$1 a bushel and apples from --25 to 50 cents a
bushel. All meau and groceries were very
low, and in the village life about the onty op
portunity for extravagance was at churcli fes-
,-' tivals, where a spender might "blow" a oollar
for a stewed or fried oyster with coffee, cake,
. slaw, pickles and pie for four persons, jf he
wanted to attract attention by free-Jiandedness,
" All the social sports of young married people
. cost practically nothing. There were no movies,
no dancing parties, no theaters, no automobiles,
' no street cars, no fine boxed candies, no kid
gloves, ho silk stockings, no diamonds nothing
to spend money for except necessities. '
But make no mistake. Those young people
hadN just as good times, were just as happy,
v and we , believe more contented than couples
f today who spend from $3,000 to $6,000 a year
i for city iife-T-golf, bridge, clubs, dances, auto
mobile parties and all. The y'oung man of
whom we have spoken made a similar compar
ison Jhen, and he was fairly qualified to judge,
for he had bad his fling in a lively college ca
reer, had lived a time in New York City, and
had indulged himself quite as much as was
good for him.
' . Are there such villages now, we wonder,
where taffy, popcornxand doughnuts in winter,
and melons, berries and fruits in summer take
the place of the costly modern restaurant and
club menus? The village of which we have
written has chanared with the years. It has its
A Critic's' View of the League.
Herbert Adam Gibbons is a confessed inter-
nationalist; moreover, he is known not only as
such, but as one of the closest observers and
keenest of analysts of world politics, and his
critical 'writings have been eagerly read by" all
who seek definite information concerning what
is going on between nations today. In the
September Century he has an article dealing
with the San Remo conference that must shock
the confidence of its-ardent supporters in the
potency of the League of Nations and also douse
the enthusiasm of some who had come to be
lieve that national aspirations jealousies and
greed for power and domination had been swal
lowed up in the red maw of war and that with
the armistice camethe dawn of a new day, when
a common ideal would animate all nations,
when "all lyen's good would be each man's
aim," and when,, indeed, the sword would :be
made Into a plowshare and the spear into a
pruning book.

All these reflections of former years were
started by some recent lines of Roy K. Moulton
in the New York Evening Mail sad lines for
all their humor, because they are so far from
thejiweet and contented village life once uni
versal in this country. Let us repeat them:
A boob therewas and he lost his head.

And he quoth to the lady: "Let us wed.
It' as cheap for two as one,'he said
Even as you and I.
He hustled around and hired a flat,

' With urban population now exceeding rural
in the United States, and young men looking
toward the bright lights, vain displays and n-
certainMife of the big cities for their futures, it
is not untimely to recall the joys of the village
and the countryside. There is comfort far from
the maddening crowd. There is contentment,
too, in the small communities. And with it there
is profit. Not often in six figures, perhaps, but
in abundance for all real needs in youth or in
' old age. Every country boy, every village youth,
' should tudy long what is within him before he
takes upon his shoulders the heavy excess bag-
gage of city extravagances, non-essentials, cost

rtuop Birney Chooses China.
China has long enthralled the imagination of
-men who try to look into the future Its tre
mendous population, endowed with patience
found nowhere else on th globe; its love of
peace, and its coht;ntmem; its willingness to
live on littlei and its ability to extract happiness
from small achievements, ms excited many pre
dictions of what wTI happen when China's ml!
? lions "wake tip and get in line with modern
'industrial achievements and ambitions.
Now comes Bishop Birney of the Methodist
, Episcopal ehuTch, sailing for 25 years of church
work in China and expressing his belief that
the greatest achievements for a Christian world
civilization will be wrought there in the next
few tlecadcs. That is why the Bishop declined

Nitti at San Remo. He carefully examines all
that is known of what went on behind closed
doors then, comparing subsequent performance
with the promise made at Versailles, and reach
ing the conclusion that these premiers deliber
ately ignored the treaty and the league alike,
because the selfish lterests of the great nation's
did not run along the same lines as the compact
and the covenant. He surveys Europe dispas
sionately, and concludes
The tragic situation of Europe is not of
America's making I have reluctantly
come to believe that at the present time
American intervention in European affairs
-would do no good and would make us still
more unpopular in Europe than we are Snow.' '
We cannot make a silk purse out of a iow's
ear, even were we deft and skilful craftsmen.
Our ignorance of European problems, our
inexperience in international relations, the
radical difference, due more to different condi
tions than to simon-pure idealism, between our -foreign
outlook and that of European nations,
would make us a blundering partner, either
in enforcing or modifying the Versailles and
other treaties. When our statesmen, clothed
with the same authority "and moved by the
same incentives, are able to bargain and swap,
interest with European statesmen, we can
talk the same language in international con
ferences. - v
Or when the European nations, new and
old, realize of theirown accord that the pres1
ent riiethods and programs of European rela-
tions are suicidal and no longer possible,
European public opinion may demand a. new
international morality. Then will come' the
opportunity of the United States to propose1
once more the formation of a League of Na
tions, but with the stipulation that it be a
league of all nations, a President Wilson
said at Manchester, builr upon the foundation
of Willingness to renounce particular ambi
tions and to pool interests for the good of all.""
The present league project is dead. San Remo

What Does Wilson Care? , ,
Senator Capper is not pleased over the re
tention of 18,000 American soldiers on a little sec
tor of the River Rhine by President Wilson, at
an expense of more than a billion dollars a year,
for 21 months after the armistice.
Those soldiers are officially said to be kept
there "to repel any attack made upon them and
to enforce the peace terms."
As we have no peace terms the senator sug
gests that they be brought home where they be
long before the European diplomats get us at
war again. Their, presence in Germany is a
menace to us. .
If not before, that useless hazard and waste
of a billion a year will cease when Harding be

New Engine to Save FueL
As dependable an authority as Charles M.
Schwab has announced the final successful test
of a new engine, designed to run on one-half
to two-thirds 'of the amount of oil now con
sumed by the most efficient of internal combus
tion engines. No details ai given, except that
it is a two-cycle instead of a four-cycle, the
type now in use, and that it will develop an
rnnal amnunt of nower on a much smaller fuel
consumption than any otner. sucn an inven
tion at this time is of greatest importance, par
ticularly if it is adaptable to the driving of ships,
as Mr. Schwab says. The steadily increasing
use of the internal combustion engine has, as
was noted some days ago, brought about an
acute condition with relation to the fuel supply.
Instead of providing a substitute fuel, this in
vestigator has tackled the problem from the
other end. and devised a more efficient engine.
Such inventions help push the world along.; -

PREVENTING' ROPY MILK.
Occasionally I receive a complaint
about ropy milk, another name being
slimy milk. Harding and Prucha of
the University of Illinois recently
wrote -a puwetin on the subject
iiierc is more complaint or ropy
mutt now man tnere was in the old
days when the average milk was
much dirtier than now. In the old
days the acid producing bacteria
present in such large numbers
sourea the milk before it could be
come ropy, and the gertns which
cause ropy milk do not grow in acid
num.
Ordinary pasteurization, such as is
practiced does not always kill the
germs or ropy milk to the same de
gree it kills the acid nroducprs. And
finally, the germs of ropy mills grow
at low temperatures. They will grow
in milk ncpt in a fairly efficient re
frlgerator.
So far as is known, ropy, or slimy
mim is not unneaithy. it has not
been known to cause disease. It
does not greatly change the taste of
tne article. But It is objectionable,
Consumers do not like it and Bairv
men are afraid of getting it in their
supplies.
The University of Illinois scientlsU
were called on to investigate the
cause or ropy milk coming from
large dairy. They came to the oon
elusion that the trouble was broueht

The old farmer method of curing
ropiness was to wash all cans, pails,
and utensils of every kind with sour
milk. This cured it all right, but
It left quickly souring milk in the
place of ropy. In other words, the
farmer overcame the germs of ropy

up with a rapidly souring milk to

me ouioreait investigated was an
epidemic in that It spread to all the
product. The investigators found
that if the milk was pasteurized at
140 F, for 30 minutes all germs of
ropiness were killed. If all
vats, pans, kettlss. nines, cans, hot-
ties in a word, everything touched
by the milk after pasteurization

pasturized milk would not become
reinfected. On a farm infected by
this germ the milk cans and Dails
should be sterilized by steam under

The Crankshaft of the New
Series Marmon- 34
N OTAB LE among the improve
ments introduced in the new
scries Marmon engine is the crank
shaft. This : crankshaft, first of all,
possesses a new degree of inherent
strength. It is made of the same steel
' as the Liberty motor shaft a special
' alloy steel of extreme toughness.
The main bearings are 1 inches
in diameter. Because of this large di
ameter," the crankshaft is extraordi
narily rigid and vibrationless in per
formance. The bearings are unique in-that,
they are backed with cast iron, thereby
maintaining auniformfitfor thecrank
shaft under varying temperatures.
The bearings are also fitted with
out shims; so the flow of oil is un
broken. This is a vital factor for longer
life; for, practically speaking, there
can be no wear where there is no con
tact metal with metal.
The perfection of balance in this
' crankshaft is another important rea
son, for its smooth performance. '
Each and every crankshaft is bal
anced both running and still.
As the workmanship on the crank
shaft alone suggests, the primary con
ception1 behind the design o e new
series Marmon 34-was to-make .
motor car not only of exceptional per
formance, but also of extreme long life. :

Jliss R. L. writes: "The writer, a
young lady of 24, in best of health,

persons with heart disease should
not smoke or drink. If your com-
Densation is good, ana you stick to
