WHOSE CHILD?

To the Editor of the "Norta-Cuina Datty News."

Srr,—Sunday evening at 6.45 pin while passing through the rench Park, my wife and myself both saw a foreign girl of about seven years sitting in a motor car py the side of the Chinese driver. The car was parked on the roadway outside the French Club evidently waiting for the parents inside, The chauffeur was cuddling and kissing the girl who did not seem to_object.

I am sending this in the hope that it will catch the eye of the parents concerned and they will stop this sort of thing before it gets too far.

I understand this sort of thing is quite common here, still if it is carried on under the eyes of many dozen other chauffeurs as it was On Sunday evening, it is bound to spread pretty fast.

The child could be identified by myself but not the driver, am, etc., East any Wesr. Shanghai, June 6.
