Chapter II: Front Matter (2)

It is astonishing what memories these Chinese boys have, and what a number of pages they will repeat straight off, as fast as their tongues can go, and hardly stopping to take breath. They learn their lessons aloud, and consequently as you walk along the street you can tell when you are drawing near a school by the noise, which becomes simply a din if you enter; and you can only wonder how the children ever learn anything, and what the master has done to his ears to make them strong enough to bear all that noise. When the boys repeat their lessons they stand with their backs to their master, and, swinging their bodies from side to side, gabble off the words as fast as they can, without any stops except for breath. They are not expected to understand what they learn till they have been many years at school.

I dare say you wonder whether the Chinese school-boys play any games. They do not know anything about such nice games as cricket, foot-ball, marbles, etc. But at the new year they have a grand time of flying kites.

The streets at that time look quite gay with groups of people, dressed, not as at other times, in dark cotton clothes, but in silks and satins of crimson, green, blue, purples and various hues, often with beautifully embroidered sleeves, and jackets often lined with fur. The children look particularly smart, being adorned with gay caps and hats, ornamented with gilt figures or Chinese characters, especially the Chinese character which means “happiness.” The Chinese kites are very elaborate, and are generally in the shape of some animal—a gigantic butterfly, a centipede, a bird, a dragon, etc.; and it is a fine sight to watch such a kite rise, rise steadily in the still, clear atmosphere, till it becomes almost a speck. Sometimes they fly these kites at night, and send lighted lanterns up after them, which startle the unwary into imagining there are new stars appearing in the sky!

But you know, dear children, that these Chinese have evil hearts as well as we, which need the renewing of the Holy Ghost. Will you pray that they may receive this great blessing?—_Mary Elwin in C. M. Juvenile Instructor._
