no WHAT SHALL I BRING Plays Chinese can act. Musical instruments of all kinds. A shotgun: hunting is a favorite pastimeg field glassesg golf sticks. Rifles may be brought into China only by securing permission from your Consul beforehand, but if you own a rifle, it is worth gfvlllg to this extra trouble to bring it with you. WHAT SHALL l READ Unfortunately many of us reach China with only the vaguest and most general knowledge of her great civilization. We are ignorant. not only of the language, but we are also unfamiliar with her customs, hel' history, her literature, her art. Often we are lacking even in the mOSlP rudimentary understanding of the social and political problems that arc to be faced, and some, too, have never taken the time to inquire closely into the tenets of her three religions. Such unfamiliarity handicaps 0110 from the beginning, and it is hoped that you, who may some day follow Us to China, will profit by our brief expcrience. The books listed below have been chosen with the intention of providing an introduction to some of th0 phases of Chinese life and 'with the wish that each one may continue f0l himself along the lines in which he is most interested. Acknowledgment is gladly made to the various bibliographies of books on China which have been submitted for the Keen Memorial Library, Bashford, James Whitford China: an Interpretation ..... Abingdon Press. 1919. The best general book on China. Backbouse. E. and Bland, J. O. P.

Mildred Baile Charles F. Peterson A LAST WORD F what .has been brought together in this-volume of the LINGUIST h11S helped any one to better understand the people and needs of this great country we feel more than repaid for our ellorts. Most of us are amateur writers but we have been impelled to do this job by the saII10 motives that brought ns to China and we hope you may catch. that spirit- So many have eooperated in the publishing of the magazine that it is hardly fair to record the names with their titles of editor, staff member, contributor, and the like. for the combined work of all has been essential to the completion of the magazine. Such a list cannot be complete for it is impossible to mention all who by advice or inspiration have helped tv bring the magazine to you. Special acknowledgement must be made to Mr. James M. Plumer of the Chinese Maritime Customs whose ability as an artist has been given without stint to the making of the drawings for the cover and illustrationS that add so much to the attractiveness of the magazine. The Mission Photo Bureau of Shanghai and the local Brownie Photf' Company gave us access to all their pictures, many of which appear 011 our pages. H W STAFF, CONTRIBUTORS, AND OTHER WORKERS Y .
