Hare you read Ed^ar Allan Poe's wonderful description of
Use whirlpool ’ If yon hare not read it. gtt it at the public b-
brary and read it
Then aak yourself what you would do if you were m that
whirlpool, not to stay a few seconds and then disappear but to
stay thirty or fifty or eighty yean, and then disappear
If you were in a whirlpool of water of sound and of terror
such as Poe described; if yon knew that in the end you must go
down into that central hole your only thought would be to be
have as well as you could as you went round and round, and to
prove your sympathy for the others going round with you
Well YOU ARE IN A WHIRLPOOL, and you an going
eventually—you and all other human beings—down into that
central hole that we call the grave.
Lift if a whirlpool It moves very slowly on the outside
edge in babyhood.
Then it moves more rapidly and presently, as old age comes
on. the years Sy by. so that we can hardly tell one from another
—and at last, down we go. head first and feet up, where thou
sands of miihonj have gone before, and where thousands and
thousands of Bullions will come after os
As we go round and round the circle getting narrower each
tune, let us do m this real whirlpool of hfe what we would do or
think we would do if we were in the whirlpool of the ocean-
play our part well and show kindness if possible to those near
us.
A picture such as that on this page appeals especially to the
mind of a poet And so we have persuaded Mr Montague to
verses to express the thought that Sts the picture

After eighteen months
of dragging, promises
postponements and heart
breaking delays the Re
publican Government of
China has been actually
sighted from Washington and its existence recognised "
It is to be feared that the acknowledgment has come too
late to yield any commercial advantage to the United States
America would naturally have gained both a moral and an
eeaaouuc prestige m China IP AMERICA HAD GENER
OUSLY LENT ITS POLITICAL CREDIT TO THE STRUG
GLING REPUBLIC AT THE TIME WHEN THE REPUBLIC
MOST NEEDED TO BE BELIEVED IN
It a hard to establish free and representative institutions
a a nation that has lived for ages under an arbitrary rule It
is bard to efface the traditions of many generations and to
begin the making of new traditions China needed our coun
tenance and moral support m its arduous endeavor, and it
stretched out its hands to us—to the fint and greatest of mod
era Republics—for help It needed to be fortified by our faith
in the practicability of republican rule during the long period
of the shaping and substantiating of its new form and policy.
But China plead with Mr Taft in vain Mr Knox had no
faith in Republics—none at least, to spare America waited
month after month, side by side, with the jealous and cynical
monarchies of Europe and Asia America denied the existence
of the great Oriental Free State UNTIL ITS EXISTENCE
BECAME UNDENIABLE
Since we were so reluctant to lend our political credit,
China is likely to borrow its financial credit elsewhere and to
seek industrial leadership from Europeans rather than from
Americans
The deferred promise and the two months delay of the
present Administration at Washington have served as an in-
dorse men I of the delay of the former Administration
FOR THE LAST YEAR AND A HALF THE HE A RUT
PAPERS HAVE HARDLY SUFFERED A MONTH TO GO
BY WITHOUT A FRESH EFFORT TO STIR THE GOVERN
MINT AT WASHINGTON TO DO JUSTICE TO CHIN A-
AND TO REAP THE REWARD OF THOSE WHO IN THE
GREAT AFFAIRS OF WORLD POLITICS. ARE BRAVE
ENOUGH TO CAST THEIR BREAD UPON THE WATERS
Whatever political and commercial influence America
shall exert in the building of the gigantic new commonwealth
on the other side of the world WILL BE PRIMARILY DUE
TO THE FAITH AND ENTERPRISE OF PRIVATE AMERI
CAN CITIZENS
Nevertheless, it is to be hoped that President Wilson WILL
NOT FAIL TO GIVE PROMPT ASSURANCE TO THOSE
WHO HESITATE TO UNDERTAKE AMERICAN ENTER
PRISES IN CHINA THAT THEIR INVESTMENTS IN THAT
COUNTRY WILL NOT LACK PROTECTION FROM THE
STATE DEPARTMENT
