TION RECEIVED BY CHINESE YOUTH Toronto, April 2.--From Yen Ching University, Peking, China, comes a brochure of interest to Canadian friends of Mrs, H. DB. Sharman (Lyon Sharman) on the staff of the institution, It is called "An Interpretation." A former Yen Ching student reflects Chinese feel- ing apparently when he says the University "is almost the dream- land education of many a youth." An economical student might get through the year on $300; an ex- travagant one might spend $500. Mrs. Sharman describes vividly tke many ways in which the Uni- weesity has become "a friendly neighbor" to the surrounding vil- lage and rural people. On the edge of the campus a small dispensary has been built and in its first year it gave more than 600 consulta- tions. An industrial school for wo- men is under its aegis; workshops for needlewomen are conducted by women members of the faculty and the lovely "Yen Ching Craftwork' comes out of them, The Depart- ment of Biology co-operates with Peking Union Medical College in studying the malarial mosquito a war against disease-carrying flies. In intercollegiate sports Yen Ching has a shining record. In sci- entific societies and educational as- sociations her staff members al- ways have an honored place; from the Wellesley College Staff comes as lecturer Miss Jane Newell of the Department of Sociology while with Harvard a definite relation- ship is established There are 26 units in the build- ing and the central campus of 62 acres is an ancient landscaned gar- den--*"beauty has a way of appear- ing luxurious and the effect on the visitor is one of opulence and splendor." The total cost for land and buildings was $1,800,000. With an international staff--Chinese teachers in the majority--the uni- versity progresses, says Mrs. Shar- in ally and genuinely Chinee spirit." | Here and There 264.

Down in the bottom, half a dozen cranes were busy sorting huge Queen City's Crown pieces of steel which were being noisily rivetted as they were set, meccano like, into position, On that site today stands the tallest building in the British Em- ire, the magnificent Royal York otel which, in two months more, will open the doors to its thousand rooms and welcome its first guests, Remarkable as has been the speed with which this great Cana- dian Pacific Hotel has been erected, still more extraordinary to the man on the street must be the tremendous thought which went into the planning of what will be the most up-to-date institution of its kind in the world and in the working out of those arrangements that will ensure its guests the ut- most in facilities and service. There will be, for instance, radio outlets in every room, and in the concert hall, Banquet hall and Ball- room, which have seating capacity for nearly seven thousand people, the most modern means of ampli- fication have been installed to pro- vide, not only that speakers and artists and musicians be thorough- ly heard wherever they are speak- -- ing but, by connection through the radio room, in any other portion of the ' building. There is provision also for television, should this be developed, for moving picture and movietone projection. With its own power plant and water-works, its emergency hospi- 1 and internal and outside trans- ortation and communication sys- ems, the Royal York Hotel is a complete city, It has its bank and rokers offices, its stores and shops, .its community hall and re- reation centres. Nothing which a progressive town might have has ot been thought of and incorpor- ated to advantage. Down in the basement is a complete printing establishment, a linotype and three presses. : With a tunnel entrance from Union Station, at the junction of all roads into the city, in the heart of "down-town" the site of the Royal York is strategic. With Lake Ontario before it, it is beauti- ful.. The travelling contingent will join with the citizens of Toronto in their eager anticipation of the opening day in June.

The underwriters are considering whether the sinking of the vessel comes under the terms of the pui~ icy. Payment of the policy may have to be arbitrated and may be- come of international importance. MUCH RELIEF WORK DONE BY SYSTEM OF CARAVANS IN N. WEST Toronto. Ont., April 2.--*"One woman we visited in our 'Caravan Work' in the northwest had savea for several years to purchase an oilcloth for the dining room table." Miss Dorothy Scott, speaking be- fore the Protestant Women's Fed- eration, said the first caravan went out from the diocese cf Qu'Appelle in 1920 under the charge of Miss Eva Hazel. At present there were nine caravans in the west and last year Miss Hazel was successful In raising $8,000 in England with which ghe carried on work in Cale- donia near the Peace River dis- trict. The speaker explained the oper- ation thus: = The caravans carry re- ligious literature which they dis- tribute. Names of pupils wue would like to join the Sunday school by post are solicited; homes and schools are visited and meet- ings called wherever practicable for the purpose of furthering er- ligious knowledge. Each caravan is in charge of two girls; one drives and the other teaches. Each travels an average of 2,000 miles in the summer months and penetrates Warm, cozyhomes are ideal incubators for moths.

LONG LOST REGISTER FOUND IN MONTREAL AT TRINITY CHURCH Montreal, Que., April 2.--New York's historic old Trinity Church, whose weathered stones peer over lower Broadway and down Wall Street, has yielded a long-lost reg- ister which rells back a page or two of the history of the district of Montreal. Hitherto, it has been generally accepted that the first "British non-Catholic child" traced in Montreal was a boy, John Jones, born and: baptized here in 1761. Now E. Z. Massicotte, historian and' court archivist, has been able to trace and copy a register of bap- tisims, etc., kept: by Rev. J. O'Gil- vie, chaplain of a.British regiment which passed from Quebec to Mon- treal and thence back to New York between 1760 and 1764. From the first entry in that register comes the knowledge that John Jones was not the: first British non-Catholic child baptized in this district. The entry. says: "At- Vercheres, in Canada, Nov. 23,.1760, Ann, daughter' of, John and Sarah Carr; mother's maiden name, Sarah Moore." The second entry :-- "At Montreal, Feb. 2, 1761, Mar- garet, daughter of Peter and Ann Sinnott; mother's maiden name Ann Brown." : Effort to Overthrow Wisconsin ' Liquor.
