Excerpt from Village and Town Life in China Many books have been written about China by Europeans. The present volume is a book about China by two Chinese. They are, moreover, Chinese who have had considerable opportunities of studying other forms of civilization than their own, having lived in England as students for some years. Mr. Tao obtained the b.sc. Degree in Economics at the University of London in 1913, and is now lecturing on Sociology in the University of Pekin. Mr. Leong took the same degree in 1914, and is still a student in the Sociological Department at the London School of Economics. Both have interested themselves especially in social philosophy and the comparative study of institutions, so that if they justly regard their own institutions with the feelings of patriotic Chinese, they are able equally to see them in relation to the customs of other peoples, and to review their merits and defects with a certain detachment. No doubt their point of View is not always that of the English reader.

It was at such a dragon feast my great grand father's nephew killed a man during the fight. My great grandfather offered to suffer punish ment instead of him. Now in China courts of law are not well organized, and the officers and yamen runners take advantage of such Opportunities to squeeze the people, especially if the arrested one is rich. When he was in prison the yamen runners would privately threaten to beat the prisoner and treat him in many cruel ways. The only way to escape such treatment was to pay bribes. My great grandfather had to sell his house and fields, and in fact all his properties to bribe officers and yamen runners in order to help his nephew, and at last he died in prison in Wuchang.

Excerpt from A New Thing: Incidents of Missionary Life in China Sixteen years. Ten years I waited for my mother's consent, feeling sure no blessing could attend my going, if I went against her will, and also feeling sure that the lord would cause her to give me up gladly when His time came. The time of waiting was one of training. Opportunities were given me to help on the missionary work of others, and god in His own way was fitting me for future service.

Excerpt from Forty Years in China: Or China in Transition I am fully persuaded that the Chinese have many admirable qualities; qualities that have made, and are destined still to make them a great nation. Yet I would be a false friend to that people to whose elevation I have consecrated my life, and of whom I'have so much hope in the future, were I not to speak plainly of the influences that are hurrying them on to ruin unless speedily checked by their acceptance of progress from the West, and that Divine religion, which, though originating in the East, is now propagated from the West. Hoping that God's blessing may rest upon this slight tribute toward promoting His truth, I commit it to the public, hoping it may throw some light upon the new Eastern question.

Excerpt from My Life in China and America The first five chapters of this book give an account of my early education, previous to going to America, where it was continued, first at Monson Academy, in Monson, Massachusetts, and later, at Yale College. The sixth chapter begins with my reëntrance into the Chinese world, after an absence of eight years. Would it not be strange, if an Occidental education, continually exemplified by an Occidental civilization, had not wrought upon an Oriental such a metamorphosis in his inward nature as to make him feel and act as though he were a being coming from a different world, when he confronted one so diametrically different? This was precisely my case, and yet neither my patriotism nor the love of my fellow-countrymen had been weakened. On the contrary, they had increased in strength from sympathy.
