In Decem-ber the Russian Asiatic fleet steamed Into Port Arthur, 200 miles north of Klnochov and announcement was mude that It would winter there. In March, 1808, Germany obtained a lease of approximately 100 sqnare miles on the shores of the bay which she had seized; and the same month Russia obtained a lease to Port Arthur and a part of the Llao-tun-g peninsula, with the rlg'.'.t to ex-tend the lease. Only a few weeks after the leases (Psaparad by lha National Oaoaraphla Soclaty, Waililngtoo, D. C) plan of Great Britain to THE to China the territory of which she has had under lease since 1808, and the Insistence by China that other spe-cial prlvlllges to foreign nations be abrogated, turns attention anew to the foreign patches maintained In China. These regions, which have actually been transferred, either by lease or cession, are not to be confused with the "spheres of Influence," which are more or less indefinite and many of which are not recognized by tbe Cfilnese. What once threatened to be the had been granted to Germany and Russia, Great Britain obtained a lease on the shores and Bay of l, almost equidistant between Port Ar-thur and Klnochow. This British lease was not for a definite number of years but provided that It was to run for the period during which Russia should hold Port Arthur. Later In April France entered the competition and took a lease on the Bay of Kwung Chow and approximately 23 square ndles of territory on the mainland. In June Great Britain Increased her holdings at Ilong Kong by leasing for 09 years 350 square miles of addition-al territory on the mainland and ad-ditional Islands aggregating 20 square miles In area. In November, 1899, France added to her louse at Kwang Chow a group of Islands dominating the bay. Finally In 1900 came one of the most ambitious steps of all in the acquisition of territory the occupa-tion of Manchuria by Russia. This brought on the Russo-Japanes- e war after which both Russia and Japan removed their troops from Manchuria which reverted to China but with the provision that Japan should have cer-tain economic concessions. great international "sport" of annex-ing parts of China begun with the ar-rival of the first Europeans In the Far East' Those who blazed the trail around Africa, across the stormy In-dian ocean, and up the east coast of Asia to rich Cathay, were the Portu-guese. For half a century they came and went In their trading ships, but by 1577 they felt the need of a station to facilitate their commerce, and set-tled at Macao on the southern coast of China, A region of about four square miles was set aside for them partly as a reward for assistance In breaking up piracy In the nearby wa-ters, and has been clutined by Portu-gal ever since. Formal transfer of this tiny fragment of China wus made by the Chinese government In 1887, Not only Is Macao the site of the first European claim staked out on Cathay's coast, but It has cultural ties with Europe closer knit than the po-litical relationships of controverted areas to the north. It contains the oldest ruin In China that Is associat-ed with Europe, and the tamarind and banyan shade the gardens where the Portuguese Chnucer, Csmeons, com-posed half of the Luslads, one of the half dozen world's great epics. Inevitably, too, one associates the location of Macao, on a peninsula Jut-ting from an Island In the delta of the Canton river west of Hong Kong, with that colony of Portuguese Americans on the very tip of Cape Cod, made famous by Joseph Lincoln. English Obtained Hong Kong. More than two and a half centuries passed after the founding of Macao before China was again culled upon In the name of commerce to give away more of her territory. By that time all the commercial nations of Europe, and the United States as well, were engaged In the remunerative China trade. Friction arose In the early part of the Nineteenth century between British traders and the Chinese, and after a war In which Great Britain was victorious, China, as a part of her Indemnity, in 1842 gave Great Britain the Island of Hong Kong, a few miles from Macao. This island with an area of 32 square miles and one of the best harbors In the world was actually ceded and became a part of the British empire. In 1800 Great Britain leased three square miles of territory on the mainland opposite Ilong Kong and shortly afterward this, too, was ceded. This Island became the show colony of Great Britain In the Orient It Is a world port where celebrities and forelim war craft arrive so freauentlv Changes Since World War. There has been a greater mortality In the recently acquired foreign patches In China than In the earlier ones. . When Manchuria reverted to China, Japan succeeded to Russia's claims to Port Arthur and the Liao-tun- g peninsula, and obtained an ex-tension of tbe lease to 99 years. Tbe other territories remained with an un-changed status until the World war. Soon after the outbreak of hostilities Japan stormed and took the German leased territory of Klnochow In Shan-tung. The Klaochow lease to Germany covered an area along the coast rough-ly ten or twelve miles In diameter. In addition there was a neutralized zone S3 miles wide skirting the entire Bay of Kiaochow. On the leased plot Ger-mans had built a typical German town, Tslngtao. The agreement had Includ-ed concessions to build railways out-side the leased and neutral areas, In Shantung proper; and coupled with the railroad concessions was the right to exploit mines In zones twenty miles wide traversed by the railroads. The 255-mll- e railway line from Tslngtno to Tslnan, the. capital of Shantung, was opened In 1904. When In 1914 Japan announced that she would support Great Britain's Inter-ests by taking the town of Tslngtao, the PhlnpKA tn aenri trnnna in that the din of official salutes is al-most constantly echoing from the gran-ite peaks. It is next to the oldest and in many waya the model foreign-owne- d community In China. Contrary to popular belief, there Is no city of Hong Kong. That n name belongs to the Island and the mainland. The city of half a million inhabitants which Is the capital of the Island and the colony Is officially Vic-toria. But the name is seldom heard. To the Islanders the beautiful ter-raced town Is merely "the city." Grabs by Other Nations. After Great Britain acquired nong Kong Island and the patch of mainland there was a lull In the staking out of claims by foreign nations to Chinese territory. What may be called China's period of "intensive land losses" be-gan In 1S95 and extended to 1900, with five nations participating. At the conclusion of the Japanese-Chines- e war In 1S95, Japan not ouly ob-tained Korea, over which China clnlmed a protectorate, but also the large island of Formosa with an area of nearly 14,000 square miles, off the central Chinese coast. From that time on the political pot boiled furiously among the nations wishing to follow In Japan's footsteps, and at one time the world was In-formed of a new lease of Chinese ter-ritory nearly every month. Germany tried to lease Klaochow bay on the coast of Shantung In 1R0C, but China make the attack a concerted affair, but were dissuaded. When Japan had stormed the town and taken It from the Germans, the Chinese considered the matter merely a "Tslngtao ques-tion," but it rapidly grew Into a "Shan-tung question" again when secret treaties were disclosed whereby Japan had obtained more than a year before the peace conference the engagements of Great Britain, France, Russia and Italy to support Japanese claims to all privileges which Germany had ac-quired in Shantung. Although the Chi-nese delegates protested that when their country entered the war against Germany and abrogated all treaties with the lntter, the territories and concessions automatically reverted to China, the Purls council followed the secret treaties and provided In the Treaty of Versailles for the transfer of "all rights formerly belonging to Germany" In Shantung, to Japan. The Chinese refused to sign the treaty. Finally, In 1922, Japan returned the leased area to China. As a result of the adjustments since the World war, there are only five patches of China now formally gov-erned by foreign nations. Three of these, Portuguese Macao, British Ilong Kong, and Japanese Formosa, are owned outright by the governing na-tions. Of the 4ong time leaseg, only Port Arthur and Kwang Chow remain. The former Is under the control of Japan, the latter of France. VNfesMC Constipatloii Vp Nonhatit Scientific Perfect dyeing I so easily done!

There Is always great complexity of stimuli In any given situation; the situation Itself la alwaya changing. A pig quietly nosing along a swill trough Is Joined by two more pigs. New situ- - atlon now: the first pig gets Into tbe trough. The family have Just sat down at the dinner table. The doorbell rings. Behavior of the entire family changes: mother Jerks off her apron, father puts on his coat, sister wipes broth-er's mouth, brother kicks the cat New situation: only one new stimulus-door- bell. The family Jumped to the reaction: well trained. Baby alone went right on banging his rponn on the arm of his chair. Baby had Just acquired that hahltand found It so stimulating that entrance of 'stranger did not alter Its situation. But the family now ore suddenly con-scious of baby's behavior. Mother asks sister to take baby Into the kitchen, knowing that removal of spoon will set off the first habit baby learned (crying till he gets It). Baby Is not likely to lose that habit: no other one yields him such large re-turns. We become Doctor Jekyll or Mr. Hyde. Few can become both. We have onr own level of organization, our hab-its of response to situations in which we feel at home. But Jekyll Hyde was at home In two situations. His was a dual personality. In one set of situations he was Doctor Jekyll, In the other Mr. Hyde. There are times when, to our aston-ishment dog or child makes no re-sponse to name or other stimulus which ordinarily calls out a response. If we cannot predict a child's re-sponse, how can we expect to predict the behavior of an adult How can we know when Mr. Hyde will turn Into Doctor Jekyll? We cannot Even prediction of a comet's movements Is simple compared with predicting the behavior of an nmeba. But there are some general principles that are of general applica-tion. Four brothere a banker, a preach-er, a paleontologist and a bootlegger read the news of the sinking cf the Eighteenth amendment: predict the re-sponse of each. The doorbell rings, a man enters; It Is their enormously rich Uncle Moe from Australia. The situation Is again changed. But to each and to all situations an almost unlimited number of varying responses was open to each of these four men. And Is open to all of us. There are also two ways of clothing our nakedness for we are born naked and are not ashamed of It But the overdressed man and the underdressed woman had the same start and are only happy when they are noticed: on the stage or platform, or In the pic-tures or lodge parade. When a woman cannot make an exhibition of herself any other way she can start a dress-refor-movement Human beings, acting and reacting. The situations which call our reactions are diverse. The response any given Individual will make to any given sit-uation is s variant and depends upon that Individual's previous experience, a We learn new responses for adjust-ment purposes and In taking on habits are subject to factors which condition nil learning. We become adapted, positively or negatively: the stimulus reaches us more easily or we Inhibit it with less effort. A doctor asleep beside his wife hears only the telephone; she hears only the baby. But If the baby cries long enough he will hear It, and If the telephone rings long enough she will hear It. There Is a limit to adapta-tion. Both can hear a mouse or a bur-glar. Most boys can hear a penny drop; most men's ears pick up nothing less than silver. When any given stimulus sufficient to set off the response mechanism Is repeated, the threshold Is lowered and the response hastened: we are posi-tively adapted, favorably disposed. We are negatively adapted If the Btlmulus is gradually Increased without in-creased or with delayed response, or. If the threshold Is permanently raised!
