SWEENEY TELLS | OF LIFE IN CHINA Local Man Takes Up Mission; - Work in Loting, Near Hongkong ev. Joseph A. Sweeney, man who has taken up his Iife's work In the mission fields of Chi has written to lo friends telling an in- teresting story of life in the Orient. Teaching American Games, The local man is having difficulty in teaching the Chinese to play base- ball and football, but express a fear that he will never be able to bring about true appreciation of a “Babe’ Ruth or & Red” Campbell. Trather Sweency's letter follows: * “I am at my mission now with an- other priest in town called Loting | about six day urney by river boats from Hongkong. This town is cen- traily located in our parish which ex- tends about the area of Conneccticut and Rhode Island. We are near the tropi now, at Christmas time, the thermometer registers between 70 and §07degrees in the Male and Female Laborers. *Men and women labor indiscrimin- ately at the tasks that horses and ma- chines do in Ame 1d the reward for these poor coolics is a wage of seven to fifteen cents a day—enough for them to buy rice and greens for two meals and to rent a. one room hut with hard boards for a bed. To add to their discomforts they chose to uge a plece of glazed tile under their necks as pillo “After visiting Japan where the people are all the time washing them- selves and have good sanitation wi all other modern improvemen where no one dares hold you up with: a gun and where everyone helps the stranger with a good old-fashioned China appears dirty, dan- nd helplc behind the IPut after conversing with mis sloners who for from 30 to 50 yc have worked in these two countries until they know the hearts of the two peoples, give me China. Here I want to wo till T wobble with age, for these people have virtues that make gzood groundwork for Christ's teachings. “The summer, they tell long Turkish bath here. Robbers and Tigers. “There are villages of Chincse farmers scattered all over the district and the great mountains that rise up between them are the strongholds of robber bands which make raids on the little towns and a good hunting ground for tigers—I hope they keep out of my way for I haye nothing heavier than a shot gun. 'There are no roads but only paths and moun- tain trails between the villages. It looks as if we shall have to make all our journeys on foot because horses in this sectfon are not much bigger than ponies. A couple of Chinese will carry a man all day in a chair for a dollar; but T'll have to break a leg before a couple of human beings will be asked to tote me around on their shoulders; though anyone who pre- tends to be a gentleman here is never supposed to k any distance. “Pig-Tails" Missing. “Chinese life here is about the same as it was 30 centuries ago and for a | newcomer it presents one surprise after another. About the only change the republic seems to have effected in the life of the people was to cut off their ‘pig-t and to put a few new faces on the officials. They live in the same old mud-brick houses which permit the white ants to run tunnels | up through the soft walls and ecat them through the beams in the root until the place tumbles in. “At our mission we have w sichool | and an orphanage. 1 tried to teach a local gerous times. me is one plain models. quitted_ 0f Murder—Re-Arrested A Gussie Humann was aequitted Dec. 14 in Queens county Y., on the charge of muvdering Havry Garbe, a former sw heart.
