A Typical Chinese Monument The Chinese bury their dead on the mountain side where the earth is dry and there is less danger of floods. The monuments are built along the highway to inform the public of the great men who have lived and died in the neighboring villages. A brief history o f the dead man serves as an epitaph, and a tortoise or dragon, carved into the stone, symbolizes eternal life. Death is an expensive proposition for the Chinaman. Only the leaders of community life are honored by monuments along the highway. But by the time even the average cki- zen’s funeral expenses are paicF— with numerous pallbearers and feasts for the mourners—well, it’s cheaper to lire. There is *35™*« of ®**e doctor to every 400.000 Chinese. So the Interchurch ^ W orld Movement in which America's evangelical bodies *re cooperating, intends to cut down funeral expenses for China by opening a large number of new hos­ pitals and by strengthening e x istrtr institutions.
