"AMERICA SISTER TO CHINA"

SO C. D. HURREY AND T. S. WEI TOLD COSMOPOLITAN CLUB.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

"The differences between the Americans and the Chinese are being rapidly obliterated and it is the duty of the Chinese students in this country to do their utmost to accomplish a better mutual understanding between the two nations." This was the point made by Mr. C. D. Hurrey, Secretary for the National Committee on Friendly Relations, in his address last evening to the Chinese students of Greater Boston at the meeting of the Cosmopolitan Club in Phillips Brooks House. "It would be a very good thing if Chinese students in this country would contribute to our magazines and correct some of the wrong, but popular, impressions in regard to their native land.

"The people and students of Boston have a great opportunity, because the impressions which they give to the 100 Chinese students now in this district will, in a few years, be carried back by them to all parts of their country."

T. S. Wei, 2 G B, speaking for the foreign students, compared the protection of France over the United States in its infancy with the latter's care for China in its present inexperience. "We students look up to this evening's speakers as children to grown-up men. So does the young republic of China look up to its sister, or rather its aunt-republic."
