Wuchang, May 14.
Alter the "Jock-out" by those in charge, the Boone University students were allowed to come back to work last Wednesday. On that day though the majority of the college. boys turned up. only about a fifth of those attending the Preparatory School put in an appearance. Possibly those youngsters thought they would save a little face by taking a few more days' holiday on their own account.

There is a feeling in many quarters that the offending students have been allowed back on far too easy terms. Only one boy has been expelled and the rest are to be received back on the following conditions: 1. That they are expected to obey the rules of the institution 2. That pupils are to obey the orders of any members of the staff and then if they have any grievance are to appeal to the Faculty Council; 3. That pupils must not take part in political movements that are directly aimed against the government in power.
However. the stand taken by the Boone authorities seems to have put some ginger into some, at least the government school principals. The Head of the First Middle School. whose students had been on strike for some time though still making use of the school premises, informed the boys that unless they returned to their studies at once he would send them all home. At once the pupils meekly proceeded to their class rooms and started on their lessons. Probably no one was more surprised than the master himself at this sudden display of lamb-like obedience.
