Miss Yau Tsit Law, one of the two Chinese girls who passed the competitive examinations and was gent abroad to study by the Kuangtung Provincial Government in 1912, is now in Shanghai as a delegate to the China Educational Commission. This Commission, which was appointed by the Foreign Missionary Conference of Great Britain and North America, is made up of leading educators from Great Britain, America, and China, all studying the problems of education in China. by personal investigation of schools all over the Republic and by thorough discussion.. Miss Law explained to me the method which the Commission is adopting in its survey in this way All the delegates, English, Amer: can and Chinese met in Peking and made out a general programme. They were then divided into two sections, with representatives from all countries evenly distributed, and one section studied educational conditions in the north of China, the other in the South. Miss Law, coming from Canton, was assigned to the Northern division and the same principle was followed with the other Chinese members so that the survey might be as comprehensive as possible. Now the Commission is together as a whole in Shanghai busily compiling the results of its findings in a report which will be made public as soon as possible.
