(By International News Service! Nashville. Tenn., May 20.—Recent ly returned from war-torn China. Dr. and Mrs. Philip Sullivan, missionaries, give interesting highlights on the death of a country thnt has been asleep for centuries, and the birth of a new. modern nation. Dr. Sullivan, formerly of Shanghai, where he was head of the depart ment of economics of St. Johns Uni versity. an institution of the Protes tant Episcopal Church, and Mrs. Sul livan, who first met her husband in the. Margaret Williamson hospital in Shanghai, while serving there as a missinury, have lived in China for the last five years and are thoroughly ac quainted with conditions there. "Then l is very little patriotism in China.” he said, “as Americans un derstand the word, to inspire any of i the armies. The reason for this is that practically all of the soldiers arc coolies, or expatriates, and are pro fessional or mercenary soldiers. They : are liable to change their loyalty to whichever side seems to be whining, or offers the most in the way of loot ing or other gainful pursuits that fol low in the wake of war.” And above all the battle-scourged towns, the "red" menace lifts its head. Dr. Sullivan said, threatening the safety of all foreigners. "It was very unfortunate for for eign activities in China." he d'S-larSd. "that the ‘red - element is in the south ern army, and it is also unfortunate for the nationalists. St. Johns University is one of the greatest institutions of learning in China, and although it is outside the international settlement at Shanghai, it is in the protected area. More than 750 Chinese men and boys arc on rolled there and these were terribly disap pointed when the institution closed its doors. r Increased Happiness in Old Age. The Progressive Farmer. "How We Have Found Increased Happiness in Old Age”—this was the topic announced soiuegiwe ago for discussion by older readers of The j Progressive Farmers, and here, after some delay, are some of the best let ters received in answer to our an nouncement. The first cash prize of .sls goes to T. B, Ewing, of Comanche county, Texas—but lie didn't write his letter, i He had to dictate it. for he has been blind for twenty-five years! Mr. Ewing's letter may not be more cheerful or philosophical than some of the others, but he has at least had his cheerfulness and philosophy put to a harrier test than anybody elec — and it is an inspiration (as well per haps as a rebuke to some of us who complain much with little cause) to I see how triumphantly his courage and serenity have survived his quarter century test! Listen to him: I “I am in my seventieth year and totally blind, yet happy. There are so many things for us older i ample to find happiness in that I hardly know where to begin. One of the many that I get geuuine pleasure out of is good literature. There are lots ’of helpful things I get through hear . ing the reading of palters and maga zines. “As for usefulness, up to short time ago before I took rheumatism. I did lots of work such a feeding the stock and chickens, drawing water, and did I the fumily washing with very little ' help. I save my wife, many steps by bringing in the wood. There is no use to give up just because wc are getting old. I have been blind twenty* five years, and, of course, there have been times that life looked awfully gloomy. B«it as happiness is of our own creation, or the attitude of mind toward things, I always look for the 1 silver lining when the cloud is dark,.: “When Jesus walked the shores of Galilee, people needed food, clothing, j shelter, and love, and the present day needs are not so very different from that of men and women of nineteen | hundred years ago.

Governor Would Stimulate Interest In Farm Work The Tribune Bureau Sir Walter Hotel Ilaleigh. May 2(l.—Thoroughly con vinced that something must bo done now to stimulate interest in farming ns a business and to put it ou a better business basin. Governor A. W. Me- I,cun has accepted the honorary chair manship of the National Farm School committee in North Carolina, which has for its primary purpose the stini ulatiug of interest in the National Farm ..School movement, which has these ideals for its goal. Nearly thirty years ago, at Doylcs town. I’a.. the original National Farm School was established, largely as the result of the vision of a Jewish rabbi in Philadelphia, who even then saw ! the danger in congested populations massed in big cities, and who con ceived the plan of taking boys who lmve an attitude for the soil and of training them in scientific farming, teaching them business methods and inakiqg successful farmers out of them. He interested a group of' wealthy eastern financiers in his plan and the schooLwas established as the first bulwark in . the movement to strengthen, flic agricultural structure of the nation anil to check the great migration ,from,farm, to city. I ITlit sfkwlii t* endowed, has iljiityiii<jraMW?ASifHalid hgs :iOO bijfs .ifrotrt {iff years ls , agc' on . up whom it in traiitiug in a refUlar-'tliWa*? yeif course which includes'high sclimo). work. • agriculture and' fnrin injingge : meat. The boys afe charged no tui tiony their clothes and entire upkeep are' furnished- -them free, and when they complete the three-year ;o»hm, a large revolving fundus available from which they can borrow toward the purchase of a farm of own—and the schook encourages this. So enthusiastic have flip proponents of the school become that it lias been deluded to seek an additional $5,000,- 000 from all over the United States with a view to establishing other sim ilar schools in different sections of the country, in order that interest in the movement may he more generally stimulated. North Carolina has been assigned a quota of *530,000 and A. ' Shapiro, of Winston-Salem, is cam paign chairman for the state, with Prof. P. H. Wilson, of Wake Forest College, us vice chairman. In order that the people of the state may become more conversant with the National Farm School movement and what it means both industrially, and agriculturally both now and in the future, outstanding men and wom en from all sections of the state have bei-u invited to meet in Greensboro on Saturday afternoon. June.4th, when “ Rabbi Stephen 8. .Wise, of New York, who hus long been iitterested .in the farm school movement, will be present, and explain just wlrat the movement is- and what it is doing. Though the school is 11011-sectarian in nature, it has been financed very - largely by. a grmip of Jewish ifiqanei -1 !crs who have rAjjogniaul , the need for su'cly an instjnltatm, inithi* aafituiUsural <iCv-elop<W^&ffjfe^fe^t^*A#f’ ruhum AlrlangCr, of Ktifthger, N. C„ millionaire mill man, has contributed ■ thousands of dollars to. the school and i the movement. This campaign is now i being launched more to unousc public interest in the work, rather than to' i, secure the additional funds, which ..... ..ViswC .. .. , i tci. could easily have bt'en raised by pri vate Nubst-ription. But the idea is to make the movement national rather than sectional. While Governor McLean has not • definitely stated that In: would be present to introduce Rabbi AVi.se, lie indicated that lie would like to and that he would if at all possible. Rabbi Wise is making the dedicatory address the morning of June 3rd at. the dedica tion of the new auditorium at the North Carolina College for Women in : Greensboro und is generally Conceded as being one of the most outstanding speakers and thinkers in the country. The committee feels that it has been very fortunate in securing Rabbi Wise to open its campaign for-the' farm school movement in this state, and that Vjttle difficulty will be experienced in raising its quota of $30,000 for the furtherance of this work.
