Classes have to be interrupted for days at a time, but the fact never les- sens the zeal of the teachers or tne diligence of the pupils, though the enemy is not more than 2,000 yards To a large extent the classes are held in the cellars and wine caves o § | bling foreign building situated in a Tang Shao-yi, who has been name minister of foreign affairs; all the for- eign advisers and important Chinese officials attended without bodyguard, and were unmolested.

The House of Parliament, a ram- the town, in some instances in caves two stories below the surface of the street. There the air is more humid and there is less light than in the ordiary school room above ground, but otherwise there is little difference in the conditions or the routine. When a bombardment begins some of the children show signs of ‘fear; | not always for themselves but for the father or mother whom they think must be in danger. When the bom- bardment has completely ceased the children are dismissed and sent home, The streets are then safe, excepting the exterior boulevards, where the children are warned not to go. Some of the school scenes are tragic, others comic, notwithstanding tragical surroundings. A class will be |at work when suddenly a servant opens the door and calls out that “they are bombarding close by.” A second or two later and the noise of a shell bursting on a nearby house makes the’ smaller children tremble and cry. At once the classes are led down to the cellars, some of them carried by soldiers who have come in off the street to avoid shell splin- ters.
