Tang, '18M, writes on in the fifeharticle of a series deal- ing with that country. The most important teaching of Con- fucianism is benevolence and that of Christianity is brotherhood. They do not conflict, but are synonymous in their spirit. Confucianism advocates that a coun- try should be governed by a benevo- lent government rather than by a military power. Now, some of the Eu- ropean and American countries have experienced that the true greatness of a nation depends upon the character and spirit of the people. Many of them feel a desire for religion and education rather than for military power. Character is the fundamental thing in a man or a country. The following is the Confucious view: "The administration of government lies in getting the proper man. Such men are to be gotten by means of the ruler's own character. That character is to be cultivated by treading in the ways of duty. This can be done by cherishing benevolence. Benevolence is the characteristic element of hu- manity and the best exercise of it is in loving relatives. "Hence the soverign should not neg- lect the cultivation of his own char- acter. In so doing he should not neg- lect to serve his parents. To do this he should acquire a knowledge of men, and in order to know men he should not dispense with a 'knowledge of heaven. "The duties of universal obligation are five and the virtues where they are practiced are three. "The duties are those between sov- erign and minister, father and son,; husband and wife, elder brother and younger and the duties belonging ti friends. "Knowledge, magnanimity, ane energy are the three virtues universal. ly binding. The means by which they carry the duties into practice ar 'singleness of purpose.' Some people are born with the knowledge of these duties, some know them by study, and some acquire the knowledge after a painful feeling of their ignorance Some practice with a natural ease: some from a desire for their advan- tages, and some by strenuous effort But the achievement being made it amounts to the same thing." Again Confucius has said, "To be fond of learning is to be near tc knowledge. To practice with vigor is to be near magnanimity. To possess the feeling of shame is to be near tc energy. "He who knows these three thingE knows how to cultivate his own char- acter and how to govern men. Know- ing how/to govern men he knows how to govern the kingdom. "All who rule the kingdom with all its states and . families have nine standard rules to follow: The culti- vation of his own character; the know- ing of men's virtues and talents; af- fection toward relatives; respect to- ward ministers; kind and considerate treatment of the whole body of officers; dealing with the mass of people as children; encouraging all classes of artisans; indulgent treatment of men from a distance, and the cherishing of the princesses of the state." In short, Confucious gives the truth, as does Christ, but Christ goes further and gives us the power to live ac- cording to that truth. Therefore, be- ing a Christian, my conscience can not let me condemn Confucianism, but, accept it with Christianity, realizing the higher degree which Christianity attains in the spiritual strength it gives to live that truth. 0 d f- Y e e 8 d a a t 0 3 5 3 T a E: Ye e Va Electric Auto Heater--Keeps Your Engine War Costs very little to operate THE rsity Toggery SHOP 1107 S.

The course will consist entirely of field and laboratory work and four hours credit will be given for the semester's work.

The material which is being used for study is a native Porto Rican wood called yagrumo. This wood comes from a rapid grow- ing tree found along the river banks in the vicinity of Adjuntos. The wood is very similar to bamboo and has a hollow center like this ,plant, but it lacks the hard surface which is found on the bamboo. Prof. Rueben Peterson of the medical faculty, last Saturday attended a meeting in Washington to discuss further and more extensive prepar- edness in the medical corps of both the army and navy. The deans and representatives of 95 medical schools throughout the country were also sum- moned to the conference. Following talks by several army and navy officers, the meeting adopted two important resolutions. 1. That each medical school should be provided with government repres- entatives, who should deliver a course of lectures to the students on the work of the medical corps. 2. That the meeting go on record as favoring universal military train- ing in schools and colleges. These resolutions were sent to the proper committees in both houses. Sec- retary Baker met the representatives in his offices, following the meeting where he expressed his appreciation for their efforts and assured them of his hearty support and co-operation. In the event that his power can not be extended to provide the various schools with medical instructors, it is said that further legislation may be expected. Surgeon-General Gorges of the army, pledged the support of that branch of the service in the medical preparedness campaign. Surgeon- General Braested of the navy, stated that unlike the army, the naval forc- es of the United States must be pre- pared long in advance. He asked help of those present in providing medical officers for the navy. Colonel Arthur of the army, present- ed a proposgd outline of action, while Major Noble spoke on the medical re- serve corps, stating that the old one was about to go out of existence and that a new one was needed. At present a graduate of a medical school is granted a commission in the army or navy upon the completion of a course of instruction in the army and navy school of instruction in Washington. If the request of the representatives is granted, a mem- ber of the medical corps will be sta- tioned at each of the schools of med- icine, who will give a series of lec- tures to junior and senior students, ex- tending from Feb. 1 to June 1. Those enrolled in such courses will be asked to pledge their support in the event of war. Dancing classes and private lessons at the Packard Academy. Flannel Shirts made to order. G. H. Wild Company.
