An Essay In JAZZ
tiii: ciiim-:i: movii: man. China is old, almost as old as the hills. Somron: has said that for h r there can be no new experience: that ."h- has Men and felt all sorts--of x-natton and passion; livvd all kinds of governments and undr all sorts of ruh-s; nd that she has Krown Kray studying all th jhll-usophi'-s of lif It is for thin reason that hina mov-s lowly and nfver enthusiasHs or anything but her slo'.v Köln,' philosophy. Maybe thi.i is all true and explains why it is that the Chines- take even Yankee inventions, look them over carefully and thn iut them to a use of which the Yankee never dreamed. Quite recently a younp lady missionary wrotf home to her people in th Fnlted KtaO-M and told them about sdnK a Chine movie pioture show. She haid that it va.s the surpr ot her life and well It miK'ht hae be-n. Thj show was advertised and she w.-nt. The crowds were gathered in a lark'e tent darkened po as to exclude all llßht. Th only thinK fho could not undTstan was why the Chinee operator stood out in the browed daylight with his machine. There were no visible elk'ns of electrie wires and no evidence of any sort of lamps. Immediately the question of how the Chinaman was polns: to operate his machine became more of a concern to her than the pictures he intended U hüs So she stood and watched him. Carefully and slowly he examined the box containing the film? and then just as carefully and slowly he took them out of the box. He adjusted the machine and attached the him. Then came the surprlsinR
part. Out of his pocket he took a common ordinary' lok'njr ?''? nd placed it upon a standard. Out of his other pck't he took a reading Class, hitched it to a pole and condensed the rays of the sun from thlooking plass upon the aperture through to the film. Then he began turning the crank. And. . said the little missionary, "it was the best and clearest picture I ever saw." That for the Chinee.
