THE BLACK STRIPE ON THE CHINESE FLAG. WHEN the revolution first broke out the flag used as its emblem in many places was just a white star on a blue ground. The star had many points. one for each province joining the United Republics of China. After a while the sta gave place to a sun. Now, however ther jhas appeared another flag, of five colored stripes red, blue, yellow, white and, black.

Grad- ually they made their way along the north until they reached the ocean in the east.

The result is that to- day there exists on the hills of West China one of the. most picturesque groups. of tribes to be found in the whole world. The tribes .themselves can be numbered by 2 but they can be classified under the heading of three principal races the Nosu, the Miao, and the Shan. They are found in the provinces of Szechuan, Kwiechow, Yun- nan, and Kwang: Tn many districts they largely outnumber the Chinese, who are confined principally to the towns and large market villages. Te While the Chinese have treated these people with indifference er contempt, they have pursued in some respects a very The: have allowed the tribes to retain their dias tinet dress, their separate languages, many of their ancient customs, and even their lo- cal methods of government, The chiefs have been permitted to exercise much of their old authority, with a certain respon- sibility to the nearest mandarins, who, as long as the regular lana taxes and the ir- regular squeezes and levier were paid, did not trouble much about what happened am- ong the despised aborigines. The pigtail was never forced upon them, and member- ship of one of the tribes liberated a man from many rigorous Chinese rules. Abor- iginal students of the teachings of the orth- odox schools were allowed to compete in to win the eoveted-buttons. in a few cases they pursued their studies further and be- came officials.

In the early days of the Manchu dynasty the Miao of Kweichow kept up a struggle for a long time, and were only suppressed after much fighting and heavy slaughter.

You iy ste the big ie Tord, surround cd by the houses of the serfs, and further afield the dwellings of the retain rs who own fealty to their ruler and fight for him at his call. In most of these houses wea- pons and a bag of oatmeal hang on the wall in readiness for instant use. When the n s horn is sounded from the castle each man seizes his arms and rations, and in ah incredibly short time a large band of dar- ing fighters is mobolized, ready for any n- terprise in which their lord may lead them The black stripe in the new flag means that these tribes are to enter the brother- hood of the great Chinese nation, It means for them a wider outlook and a brighter future. It means education for millions who up to now have never entered a Government school... And it must mean the death of the feudel system, which, while it has ensured, protection to everybody from somebody, has brought cruelty and torture and oppression to those who hap- pened to be serfs. If the new rulers o: China carry out their policy with wisdom nd clemency they will gain the friendship and allegiance of these tribesmen. And these tribesmen, in spite of their want of education, will bring a valuable contribu- tion of their own to the united nation. Born and bred on the hiNsides, in close touch with nature at its best, hardy and fearless, loving their land with a passionate devotion there is a place for such men to fill in the new China. It is to be hoped that no false steps or harsh measures will mar the carrying out of the new policy toward the hitherto despised tribes of West China Long live the black stripe in the new flag 0- .
