EDUCATE CHINESE FOR $35 PER YEAR That a Chinese girl or boy can be educated with the best of advantages for about $65 a year, was the statement today of Miss Vjola C. Hill, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. C. P. Hill, who is back in Santa Ana, after six years of missionary work at Nanking and Ningpo, China. The Chinese, particularly the younger class, she says are seeking education and there is a continual demand for more schools and more teachers there. "Children would often stop me on the street," said Miss Hill, "and urge that they be allowed to enter our school, but we were always crowded and had to keep putting them off." Miss Hill has been instructor in English and botany at the Sarah Bachelor Memorial school at Ningpo for five years, acting as principal during the past year. Her first year in China was spent at Nanking in a language school which all missionaries attend before entering activity. The Sarah Bachelor Memorial school is kept up by contributions from churches all over the United States to the American Baptist Foreign Missionary society. All departments from kindergarten to high school are in operation and are attended by 135 students, 68 of whom are boarders. "The Chinese people are rapidly taking up American methods," explained Miss Hill. "They are naturally not as willing as the Japanese to take up anything foreign, but when the Chinese do take anything up they pick out the best and are sure of what they are doing." "The teaching of geography and commerce in the schools has opened their eyes considerably and they are breaking away from many of their old traditions and ideals that madd them hesitate to take up methods differing from those employed by their forefathers. They are learning American organization in business. "They are opening mines and have come to realize just what natural resources they have in China. Railroads are being built and electricity is now being used to a great extent." Miss Hill believes that the best way to get at the situation is through the missions, because after the Chinese have attended the mission schools. YORBA LINDA, July 21. (Spl.)—Mrs. Nellie B.

They are learning American organization in business. "They are opening mines and have come to realize just what natural resources they have in China. Railroads are being built and electricity is now being used to a great extent." Miss Hill believes that the best way to get at the situation is through the missions, because after the Chinese have attended the mission schools, learned our language, our customs, religion and something of the geography of the world they seem to realize that all of the foreigners are not there to beat them out of something. Business conditions, Miss Hill states are settled and there is apparently no depression. There is fluctuation in the exchange values, however. The American dollar was worth 2.01 the day she sailed from China. A year ago it was worth only about $1.25. China is extremely grateful to the United States for our participation in the drive to aid the great famine which occurred in the northern provinces. "American leaders took hold of the affair as soon as our money reached there and got food to the north when the Chinese would have been unable to do so. American money was used to build roads to the devastated regions because food that was sent from other countries, and from parts of China that were untouched by the famine, could not have been taken in without new roads and the Chinese did not know how to go about it. It opened their eyes and they are now preparing a big road-building program. "Some people seem to think that the portions of China, untroubled by the great storms which brought on this famine, did not help much in the relief. As a matter of fact China herself has donated more money and supplies than all of the other countries combined. "As far as the Shantung matter goes, the Chinese are still up in arms against some of their own leaders, whom, it is alleged, received money from Japan, and, of course, will have little to do with the Japanese themselves. "Religiously many of the Chinese are accepting Christianity. The schools and hospitals established by American denominations, are all making rapid progress now that the Chinese have come to realize that we are not there to make money, but only to try to help them." Miss Hill is here on a year's fur-lough. After a good vacation she intends to take up some kind of advanced schooling before returning to China. Yorba News YORBA, July 22. (Spl.)—Messrs. O. J.

Center St. Anaheim LOT OF FROTH OFF HUNTINGTON BEACH A lot of the froth of the oil development at Huntington Beach has been taken off the cup of oil in the last two weeks. The field is getting down to brass tacks. Persons who have been seeing things through glittering glasses are seeing that Huntington Beach as an oil field must be governed by the hard common sense rules that experience in oil fields the state over has laid down. The piruetting of stocks has slowed down so that with the excitement boiled out of it, the chances of success for individual wells and for the field in general may be better judged than was possible a few weeks ago. Honest-to-goodness development hereafter is to be the main idea, and the hurrah stuff will have to batter down tight to keep the gale from up setting the derrick. There has been a general skidding among the companies that have depended upon sales widely distributed to the public for financing. The plight of the Huntington Central having to call an assessment den after a strong well has flowed for 14 days, has given a jolt. However, there was a general tumbling of sky-rocketing stock before that assessment was slapped on. Just why the tumble? The state corporations department in a published letter says that neither the oil companies nor the corporation department is responsible for the tumble, but the letter did not state just to what the tumble was due. "If you care to communicate with any of the promoters of the Huntington Beach oil companies," wrote Assistant Engineer D. W. Minier of the state corporation department, "you will probably receive some very emphatic and categorical statements as to whom they believe is responsible for its present condition of affairs." Injury was made, but no particular emphatic or categorical answers were received. One man says one thing, another man another, numerous guesses and theories we advanced as to the cause of the tumble. But here is one answer that, conceived in by many, seems to get at the crux of the situation: "People got to seeing things as they are," said a well known Huntington Beach man, "and that is the whole story. And this clear vision is the best thing that has happened for the Huntington Beach field. The field should be developed on a paying basis, conservatively and carefully, and there is just one way to do it and that way is to see things as they are. Our oil field is a business proposition, and should be developed in a business-like way." Others say that the statement issued by the state mining bureau a couple of weeks ago pointing out the danger of running the field by stock-jobbing and boring wells on town-lots had a good deal to do with the situation, in bringing stockholders as well as managers of companies down to a cool and careful consideration of the problems of the field. Simplicity, purity and precision of speech are admirable. It jars one sense of the fitness of things to find amusing thoughts carried around in fluvver language.
