Krskine, superintendent of the Massachuselts state farm for in- ebriates, does, when he told a Hart- ferd audience that Connecticut can make as much of a success of such an institution as Massachusetts has.

In the average these children spent $4.32 a year for this purpose. The children who had the largest bank accounts were those who went the oftenest, Of the whole number, 119 had bank ac- counts. This is about what should be expected. Those who went the most either earned the most, or be- longed to the most prosperous fam- ilies. Those who have the largest incomes usually spend the most.

With the Movies in China, (Exchange.) A bunch of American young people gave a moving picture machine to the Amecrican Board Mission in Tai- kuhsien, China. The story of its use last summer has just come to hand. Taiku is a city of 20,000 in- | habitants and is one of the banking centers of China. Tt i in Shansi province about forty miles south of the provincial capital. The Oberlin- | Shansi Memorial Academy is located there as well as a lively girls' hoard- ing school and an efficient hospital. Rev. Wynn C. Fairficld, an Oberlin | man who went to China in 1910, is the one who has managed the movies and who tells the story of their use in this remote interior city. The ! Chinese preacher got permission from | the Buddhist priest in charge of the White Pagoda Temple in the center of the city to set up the machine on an elevated platform in front of the tem- ple, where plays in honor of {ho temple gods arc given. Before the platform is a big paved spuce where the audiences stood as they do in Chinese theaters, The show was advertised by posters and by word of mouth and about 1,000 came the first night. Next night the chinese servant who carried the apparatus said “If therc are not 8.000 or 9,000 people here there are 10,000 but Mr. IFairfield reckoned on about 2,000.
