Iho visit ot the C hinese University loot hall team brings before us the fast that the Chinese were our allies during the great war. '1 housands of Chinese served in the Allied eause especially in France. Their work was’, perhaps, the most dangerous of all] handling ammunition at the dumps.’ '1 housands of their men were killed in 1 lance, and their dead lie side bv side with British dead. Homes., in China sulfered loss the same jts British homes. Long after the war had ceased and New Zealanders had returned to their homes, the Chinese troops were kept on duty in France, cleaning up the war-stricken ground, clearing up war-metal and unexploded shells and bombs, dangerous work that has been emphasised by continued loss of life. The national friendships created in the great war will, we hope, continue with mutual advantage to both peoples. Progandra removes corns painlessly 1/6.—Advt.
