nn: PAGODA

A word froID the Editor .heat

PAGODA COVER SUBJECTS

Beginning with this iSS1U! of Pagoda, our cover subjectswill cover a wider range. For the past two years, readers havebeen accustomed to seeing a lovely girl on each issue of

Pagoda's cover, and although this has proven quite popular, 1am sure you will agree with me that it is time to include othersubjects.

Of course, this does not mean that Pagoda will drop cove!girls from its programme. Far from it; as a matter of fact, we

shall alternate cover girls with business personalities and eye­catching pictures of babies such as the one on this cover. 1

hope you will like the selection of pictures which will appearon the next issues of Pagoda.

i Another item which is scheduled for a change js our cover

design. The June 30 issue which will be the Annual, is a com­

pletely new cover from corner to corner, designed to carey a.

picture slightly bigger than the present one. Just watch forthe Pagoda Annual on June 30, and you'll be surprised to findhow many changes have been made.

THE MINISTER OF TRADE AND INDUSTRY

All is not well at the Ministry of Trade and Industry. Of

late, there has been a rising tide of dissatisfaction aimed

directly at the Hon. Wills O. Isaacs, the Minister of Trade and

Industry, who seems to be the only Minister in the presentGovernment taking a heavy dose of criticism from both

growers and manufacturers alike.

Pimento growers and the powerful Jamasca Agricult-uralSociety al1€ angry with the Minister over the bonus issue and

th� criticisms which were voiced at their meetings were .re­

garded as the most outspoken. Strangely, Mr. Isaacs remainedsilent despite this outspoken crtticism and this seems an at-

trtude alien to the Minister who is himself an outspoken in­dividual.

'

The latest barrage of severe criticisms levelled at Ml1.Isaacs by members of the Jamaica Manufacturers' Associationshould give birth to some .interesting developments and I am

particularly eager to see if the Minister will accept thesecriticisms meekly.

I do not wish to make any predictions, but it does seem as

if the popularity of Mr. Isaacs is slipping. And when a poU·tician begins to slip anything can happen.

SERVICE WITH A SMILE

Perhaps you have had the experience when shopping of

being waited on by an uncouth, untidy female, or a lazy, impoliteyoung man behind the counters. This brings me to the main

point, of the lack of elementary courtesy in those who serve,

and I am not excluding a substantial number of those who are

in the Civil Service.

It is high time one and all recognise. the fact that courtesyand consideration does not imply subservience of any kind.

Since we lack a tradition of e.fficiency and well-mannered ser­

vice, and since it is absolutely essential that such a servicemust be brought into being, we must look for a solution.

Naturally enough, the first and obvious solution lies withthe ibuying pUlblic who should refuse to deal with these peoplewho offer sub-standard service. Unfortunately, this is not easywhen dealing with the usually young and coarse Civil Servant.I am referring to the type slouching around at our expense'with a towel draped around his neck, and whose tie knot is as

big and ugly as a large pig's knuckle joint.

One cannot help contrasting this sorry state of affairs withthe unfailing good manners of those who serve in similar capa­cities in other countries.

I hope our principals will take note of this and take thenext and 'obvious steps to enforce good quality service to the

public.

While on this point, I should say that with possibly one or

two exceptions, restaurants are notorious in. this respect. It isbad enough to enter a place, the very nature of which demandsa high standard of sanitation, to pass through the sickeningodours of poult:ry feathers, stale vegetables, and left-overs, to

go in and find floors which are strangers to washings and tablesblack with dirt, and then to be met by waiters or waitresseswho do not know that the first requirement of their calling is

courtesy. I do not mean that this condition applies to anyparticular group O·T restaurants. Of course, it refers to manyrestaurants. The pity of the.,thing is that some of the placeswhere the food is best, the service is the worst.

As a people, we must not allow ourselves to be satisfied

with anything less than the best, especially' where we are the

ones who have to pay "through the nose".

WASHINGTON. V. K. Wellington Koo

retired from the Chinese diplomatic ser­

vice last week cfter nearly 45 years of

distinguished service to the Nationalist

Government of China. A graduate of

Columbia University, he was made Min­

ister to Washington at the age of 28.

Three times he was appointed ForeignMinister of China and was also its

Prime Minister. In addition to those

posts, he served as Finance Minister, and

is one of the two living diplomats who

drafted the League of Nations Covenant

in 1919. He also gave valuable assist­

ance in drafting in the U.N. Chcrter

twenty-five years later.

Koo will live in suburban Westchester

County, near' New York. AppOinted to

replace the well known diplomat was

Hollington K. Tong, another graduate of

Columbia University. Tong was China's

propaganda minister in W orId War II,

served as Netionahst China's Ambas­

sador to Japan since 1952. He. was a

member of the first class to graduatefrom Columbia University's School of

Journalism.

EGYPT. Premier Gamal Abdel Nasser

whose purchase of arms from Com­

munist countries threatened to ignite the

dangerous Middle East. was boiling with

anger last week when he learned that

the U.S. had given the green light to a

French shipment to Israel of twelve

Mystere jet fighters and 24 Ouraganjets.

To get even with the West, several

days later Nasser hurried off a cable

to Peking and extended diplomatic re­

cognition to Communist China.

ALGIERS. Last Saturday, French au­

thorities disclosed that Algerian rebels

massacred 12 Europeans, including one

woman, in a surprise attack on an oasis

vnIage on the edge of the Sahara de.

sert in eastern Algeria. TIle rebels

swooped down on the defenceless vil­

lage during the night. slit the throats

of the 12 Europeans and kidnapped 20

Moslems.

Several days later. French troops in

full battle dress raided and sealed off

the world famous Casbah in a surprisesearch for rebel arms and equipment.More than two hundred were arrested.

CYPRUS. Savage race riots broke out

on Saturday night between Turkish andGreek Cypriots in the vi[lage of Afania

outside Nicosia, climaxing weeks of ter­

ror in the British Mediterranean colonyof Cyprus. The Turks and Greeks bat­

tled in the moonlight with fists, knivesand sticks and set fire to buildings and

haystac:ks.Two Turkish Cypriot auxiliary police­

men were killed and a Greek Cypriotwas shot dead by Security Forces. Itwas the WOIst clash so tar between

Turkish and Greek cypriots.Each side blamed the other for stcrt­

ing the fighting, but British troops strungbarbed wire between the t�o sectionsto prevent further bloodshed.

THE PAGODA

THE MODERN HUSBAND

By A. CHUNGAuthor of "Whaf:s Wrong With Today's Girl"

THE modern husband is a

slave, chained to the apronstring of the modern, domina­ting, browbeating wife. Techno­

logy has changed not only theface of the earth but also lifein today's home.

This might come as a surpriseto the decreasing few husbandswho are still head of the house;it might even shock' the bachelorwho is now making plans toabandon his singular bliss, butthe facts and the pattern of lifein today's home are there to

prove conclusively that the hus­band no longer "wears the pants."

'take my friend Johh (thename is fictitious but the per­son is real). He works in �down-town Kingston office, and

draws a fairly good salary. At

each week-end, he turns over his

pay cheque to his wife. Shn

plans the budget and decides who

gets paid from who doesn't

Quite often, John doesn't. Whenhe is asked why he no longerattends Club meetings and So­

dality socials. John explains thathe just hasn't got the time, thathe has to help the wife with the

dishes, put the baby to bed, clean

up the garden. or nailing up a

-shelf in the kitchen. Althoughhe would like to have a night­off to play gin-rummy with the

boys, he can no longer find thetime.

Why? Why is John so occu­

pied? Because he has allowedhimself to be tied to his wife'sapron string, because in additionto being bread-winner of thefamily, he has become part-timehousewife.

. The case of John is not an

isolated one. It can be multi­plied a hundred times, less

severely in some cases, but thefacts remain that he is fast losing

his status in the home, fast be­

coming a slave while his wifeassumes more and more of theadministration and slowly pullshis pants off foot by foot. Th@trouble is that so many hus­

bands find out when it is too

late and when the wife has be­come accustomed to giving out

.

the orders.

The trouble which so manyClubs and other organizationshave in getting their membersout to practice and meetings are

directly traceable to the little

wife who has changed her con­

cept of her role in the . home .

A brief check I made several

days ago indicates that theabsentees from Club meetings and

games practices are married

men, and they are among thosewho are least willing to hel:oplan Club fairs and other socials.

HOWdid the "masculine" man

allow hiinself to be conqueredby the gentle sex? How on earthdid it all begin? Despite the

fact that today's women are ask­

ing for equality, how come sheends up by being a little more

equal than the men who were

foolish enough to carry out equal­ity of the sexes literally? I

make no claim that I am one

of those professors who have

traced the upward climb of

women to their present height,but it seems to me that men laid

the trap for themselves without

knowing it, and walked rightinto it, also without knowing it.

I have a feeling that it all

began when the word "equality"entered the vocabulary Of the

gentle sex. Anyone who has hadthe "pleasure" of arguing with a

woman knows that her meaningand definitions of words, are

entirely different from what

Webster intended them to be.

It's like talking to the Russianswho want you to give them all

FIVE

to women. Hence, we arrive .atthe conclusion of how men gotinto that fix.

IS A SLAVEyou consider them your equals,who want you to put away yourguns while they keep their fin­

gers on the trigger just to provethat you want to be friendly.

When men first gave way tothe demands of women for

equality, the stronger sex musthave thought that women hadintended to shoulder half theresponsibilties which had been

carefully assigned to men ever

since Adam and Eve left theGarden of Eden. What men didnot realize was that for the

pleasure of remaining seated inthe bus while the gentle sex re­

main standing. with her parcels,(now that they have equality) a

price tag was carefully in the

making. What men did notrealize was tha"t by grantingequality to women, the distinc­tion between the sexes becomeless and less distinct. Now ob­viously, since women were equals,performing men's duties and

sharing their responsibilties, themen should do the same, that is,share in the women's work and

shoulder half the responsibiltteswhich were traditionally assigned

When historians are ready to

write about the influence of

women on world history, theymight well regard the rise of

women in today's home as the

conquest of the century.

Another basic truth about allthis is that the modern wifelooks on her husband as the bestbargain she's ever had. -Whenshe gets him to propose andfinally to sign up that life-timecontract, her bargain turns outto be a husband, cook, baby­sitter, dish washer, gardener,labourer, errand boy who goes tothe grocery when she wants himto, carpenter, -window washer.all wrapped in one parcel.

If you do not believe this andmy other statistics, just have a

look around· you.. M.ore andmore, the men 'who claim that

they just haven't got the time todo this and that are marriedmen. And they haven't got thetime because at the end of a

busy day at the office, they haveto hurry home to finish some

household chore assigned them

A SHQRT SHORT STORY

PARTY FORORSON Keene' vIas giving":a

party for Bill Hurley, world's

heavyweight champion. MonaHarris sat on a chromium andred leather stool at the bar. Herwhite shoulders and honey col­oured hair were only a fewinches from Keene's worried eyes.He was worried because Monahad announced that she was in­sane .over Hurley.

"But you've only seen :Bill

fight," he tolc;l her ..Mona smiled into the serious

face.

"It was the only time I have

seen qynamite tlnd poetry com­

bined in one man." .

"He isn't you.r lPDd, darling.He's from the wl.'ong side of tnetracks. Doesn't that mean any­

thing?"Mena shrugged."Not a thing. There he is.

Bring him over."The butler- announced Mr.

Hurley . Ever�one e r o w d e d

around Bill whose shaggy blackhead loomed above them. He

seemed entirely at ease..

Within five minutes he drifted

over to the ornate bar where he

was introduced to Mona Harris."Give me a Scotch," said Hur­

ley."That's not the best thing in

the world to train on, is- it'll"Mona asked.

"In the :first place, lady," :Bill

said, "I'm not in training. In

the second place ... I db. wbat Iwant ...

and get what I want ...

everything I've gotten out of life

rve had to take awaY, from

somebody else. A man cantt be

soft and live."The swing band lifted the

guests, who pr<llfernid dancing to

drinking, into rhythmic motion.

But Keene and Mona stayed at

the. bar with Hurley."It sounds romantic and-s-"

the girl said.

"You can't give anybody th�

best of it," Hurley declared."Five years ago I fought Joe

Levinsky in New York. Joe lived

.down on the lower East Side, and

before every bout he had to 'beblessed by his old grandmother.He wasn't a bad guy, and not

the worst fighter in the world,either. About the time he was

matched with me his granny gotsick and needed an operation.

"Joe cam€ to my hotel. He was

pretty well upset: 'Bill,' be said,

"they're giving me five hundred

for this fight. The sawbones

want seven yards to operate on

my grandma. You're the onlyfellow I know who can help me

out: Won't you let me have a

couple hundred extra' ?"

MONA looked at Bill, her eyes

sparkling. "You did, I knowyou did."

The champion of the world

patted her band.

"Sure. I hadn't been takingthe best care of myself ana.Levin;;ky was a tough turkey.They had promised me a fightwith S[ugger White if I won. So

. I said: 'We have to take care of

ourselves, Joe. You <Uve in thethird round and I giv:e you eighthundred', That extra doughlooked Iike a milUcIQ to Lev�psky.Why sllQul(l I cother. about himand his grandma? Sure,;! Levinskywept out. in the thil�."

'Other, things. Tbe ju.dge is a big

politician. He is one of the import­ant men in the New Orleans Citizens

Coulildl. The Council says it does

not, waat ,to hurt the Negro. It ju!.twants to keep him iI'l his place,whjeh is, righ� where he is. The

Council in New Orleans claims '7,000members.

"The South," says the juag�, tap­

ping his cigar holder, "is being used

as a whipping boy. There are a group'01 Communist votes, Jew votes,

Polish votes and other foreign. votes

and these people use the South as a

whipping boy." His lips blow outWardas he speaks. He is very sure that

white is white and black is black and

that there are no grays.

"There is no fear that white

women will ever marry Negroes. The

fear is that when the Negro attains

Dixiepower, that he will want whitewomen."

The judge sighs. "E v e r y bod ywould be happier if we had an

.

allwhite South." It is as though, he is

remembering how his forbears

brought these people here a centuryand a half ago, and that I'lOW, sadly,the genie is out of the jug becausethe Supreme Court has pulled thecork.

"The greatest menace to the coun­

try is the United States SupremeCourt." Perez has been a district at­

torney for 30 years. "There is no

doubt about that. The SupremeCourt has adopted Communist liter­ature to use in interpreting our Con­st.itution."

This man is a Catholic who dis­

agrees with his hierarchy. He is one'of thirteen children, a graduate ofLouisiana State Uliliversity. "Of

course," he says slowly, "the liberal

"

(he points theD.A's indicting finger) - "a Negropreacher is credited with standing upand putting this thing over. A vote

was taken, and they voted for in­

tegration. Later, I heard tl).at a pI'iestsaid that the Catholic Church was

bound by the decision, because theyhad a, representative .at the meet­

ing."You ask the judge what kind of

people he came from. and he says:"English, Irish, D 11 t c h, Italian,French and Spanish. I'm a creole."

THE judge does not answer the

Sunday greetings of Monsignoii'H. C. Bejou. In matters' of educa­

tion, the monsignor is, the voice of

Archbishop Rummel; he i,s;- in fact,SUp<;lrintendent of aN Cat h o l i c

schools. He too is a voice, and hls

,tongue speaks in favour of integra­tion. The Bejous have been here for

t._

DesegJ'egation ,is the SQuth's greatest crisissince the end of slavery.'

The true story of what is happening in Dixie is

now told for till! first time by a great reporter andwriter - Jim Bishop, author of the best-sellinghistor.ical chronicle, "The Day Lincoln Was Shot."

Mr. Bishop toured the Southern �'battlegrQund"along with the noted artist, Bur-ris Jenkins, Jr.,

.

This is the third article in their exclusive serifS •

two centuries and the monsignor, in

his tall homeliness, has a pride in

Southern, tradition.

"There has been a small amount

of integration in the Catholic

schools," he says. "It iSN't much. Noone has complained about it. Of

course, our seminaries have been. in­tegrated for years.' The Negro whowants to study for the priesthoodprays and studies beside the whiteseminarian." The palms of his h�lild�open outward with a now-could-it­be-otherwise gesture. "A Negrsbishop was consecrated in Bay St.Louis a few years ago. Here in Ne'NOrleans, our Xavier College is the

only all-Negro Catholic College in

the country."

The monsignor picks 'Up his arch­

bishop's pastoral letter and he readsfrom it and he bows that it appliesto him and all. his work, as it appliesto Judge Perez and all" his work:"Racial segregation is morally wrongand sipful because it is a denial ofthe unity arid solidarity of thehuman race as conceived by God ...

".

There is the matter of intermat­

riage; which worries so many whitemen. The monsignor permits himse!fa small smile and erases it with the

palm of his hand. "¥airiage.... ,heS2..ys, "is a private affair. Whether we

have integration or not, the sacra­

ment of marriage will remain thesame. Marriage entails a 'nigh ,degr�eof compatibility" - he emphasisesthis word - "and 1 do not worrv

that 'intermarriage will ensue on �llarge scale." He looks for a paper he

cannot find. "Marria:re between theraces is permitted- j,; Boston and ill

Los Angeles and what are the

figures? About one-seventh of OI�C

per cent."

The archdiocese controls 132 ele­

mentary schools and 45 secondaryschools. Of these, 36 are solely for

Negroes.' In New Orleans and aroundit, 74,000 ehildr�n g? to parochialschools. About 12,000 are 'Negroc1lildren. There are 14 Catholic Negrochurches. In a Catholic white church,NO usher can tell a Negro where to

sit. He sits where he pleases. Thecolour line has never applied eitherto the confessional or to the altarrai.!.

any father seeks the leve of his

children, so God wants our loveand homage. And we depend on

Him more than any childrenever depended on their hard­

working fathers:But how do we' worship God?

It must be through prayer andexternal worship, because these

things eome naturally to us -

and God made us the way we

are.

GOD GAVE us a body and a

soul; He wants us to use boshin giving Him worship. Hewants unspoken thoughts . of

praise and adoration to rise upwithin us. He wants us to shutourselves off from man at timesand think of nothing but Himand our dependence on Him.

Bl!lt God also wants us to

gather together in public to

pray, to. open our mouths - themouths He gave us - and use

them to praise Him in word and

Over on Burgundy Street, the

Negro preacher stuffs a white ker­cnief inside his collar and closes thesermon on the deceased, who was

knifed by a Negro woman because ofanother Negro woman. The preacherlistens to the shrHl screams of thewomen, and watches approvingly as­

th€l Negro nurses in the starchedwhite nats carry the faintees feetfirst out of the Morning Star BaptistChurch. The Negro preacher has saidall that he is going to say, and thatis, if there is any justice at all, everylast one of us is going to have to ac­

count for what he has done beforethe throne of Cod.

THE purpose of this article is

not to ridicule the husbandsbut the expression of a, ifainthope that they will be able toturn the tabies as skilfully as

the women did in their climb to-their pre sen t positron. Theearlier this is done, the better,fOJ! the longer the present atti­tude is maintained, the greaterthe effect on the younger gen­eration.

The modern teen-ager, for in­

stance, is a very possessivebundle of dtctatorshlp. Wherecould she have learned her

heavy-handed methods except in

tile heme,.

from tOQay's mother?It is a fact that daughtersimitate their ·mCi)thers.

Boys are finding it Increasing­ly diffilCult to get along with themodern "girl", for she is posses­sive, selfish and oossy. And it isso because the .mooem ,wUe hastied her ·husband to her' apronstring. If husbands can reston;their dignity by once more be­coming the head of the house.they can contribute to the nextgeneration the happiness thatglows in a home where "hewears the' 'Pants."

The reason why tooay's hus­band should once more recapturetheir throne in the home doesn'tstop there. To my way of think­ing, it goes back to a very old

question: "Are you man or

mouse?" Choose your role care-fully and live accordingly.

another win to their credit.

Another interesting competitionis the Ladies' Doubles. Picked to

represent CAC are Kay WongKen, Dorothy Chin Fook, Gloria

In their first matches, C.A.C.will meet st. Andrew at thelatter's ground, on Monday and

Tuesday.

BAs,KET BALL leaped back into

.

. :the news last week. The 1956Season was scheduled for official

opening last week Wednesdaynight at the Chinese Freemason

Court, but rain forced the post­ponement until last Mondaynight.

Two games threw open the

1956 season. A novel departurefrom the usual beaten path, was

in the [orm of a match betweentwo women teams, one from the

UeWI and the other team knownas Go-Cats. Go-Cats defeated theUCWI4-2.

In the men's game, UCWI, last

year's Senior Knockout Champsfaced a Rest Team and lost by14-25.

Noel Ho Tom, on Rest forward

line, displayed amazing accuracy.He filled the basket five succss­

sive times and ended up with the

top score of 14. For the Under­

grads, Bethel was top scorer with8 points, followed by Stockhausenwith 4. Referees were WinswnWhite and Vincent Chung.

With the Season now open andteams gearing themselves for thecompetition, it is still nOG yetcertain how many teams will bebrought in. In the Senior League,I gather that Eagles, U .C.W.I.and DCLI are the only threeteams certain of entering, but itis quite possible that at the last.moment Pat MCGlashan whoplayed for Bayer last year. willbring in a team. If that is thecase Eagles is certain to curryoff the Senior League and Knock­out trophies. Eagles who hasbeen practising since last year,is in fine form, and is being re­

inforced by old hands from ChunSan and Old Students. Noel Ho

Over in England, Neil Harveyhas delighted his captain, Ian

Johnson, with a double centuryagainst the formidable MCC side.With the other batsmen in fairlygood form, Australia will be field­

ing a strong batting side. It willbe interesting to see how theAustralian batsmen will fareagainst Tyson and the spinbowlers, Laker and Lock.

TENNIS is still high up on the

popularity list at the C.A.C.In the inter-club Minor Competi­tion which drew seven teams,e.A.C. played five matches andwon them all. st. Andrew Clubwhich won all their four matchesso far, is schedule to meet C.A.C.,at st. Andrew Club grounds on

June 8. Spectators are in for an

interesting treat, and I pick

Tom, Chun San centre forwardlast year, and Roy Lowe andVictor Wong, Old Student.., left

winger and centre forward. isnow on the Eagles forward line.With their experience and monthsof practice, they ought to win the

competition easily.In the Junior League, more

teams are entered. For the

moment, I am told that the listconsists of Old Students, United

Aces, Crusaders, DCLI, and

possibly another team trom one

of the schools. In this League, I

pick Old Students for carryingoff this year's trophies, althoughthey have lost such old hands as

Roy Lowe and Wallace Narn..This year's competition, al­

though Iacking in numbers, willnevertheless be a keen one.

Notable old timers who seem un­

able to field a team this year are

SATURDAY, JUNE 2, 1956

'IT is written in the Book of

Books: "I am the resurrec­

tion and the life, saith the Lord:he that believeth in me, thoughhe were dead yet will he live;and whosoever liveth and be­lieveth in Me, shall never die."

The tolling of the bells atopNob Hill's Grace Cathedral inSan Francisco on April 11, at

high noon signalled the begin­ning of the last rites for theRev. Daniel G. C. Wu, pioneerchurchman, faithful priest, loyalservant of God and of his

people.

As the first sad toll of the

Cathedral bells drifted downthe hill towards Chinatown,many Grant Avenue merchantsclosed the i r eyes in silent

prayer. In some business officesChinatownians feU to the i r

knees, made the sign of theCross. In many homes, familiestook the moment f.or prayers.

At the age of 73, Dr. Wu -

known to thousands lovingly as

"Father Wu" - had fought the

good fight, and was homeward

bound.

Father wu was a Chinatown

padre in the tradition of the

early pioneer frontiersman, a

circuit riding priest who carried

the Christian message into new

lands, new social situations, new

areas of people's lives. Father

Wu was God's explorer.Born in Canton, China, he was

taken to the Hawaiian Islands

by his parents, where he was

converted to Christianity by an

Espicopalian deaconess who read

him the Holy Bible in teachinghim English.

Soon after his arrival to San

Francisco, he entered divinityschool, at the same time doing

missionary work among the

native Chinese in San Francisco.

He graduated from the Church

Divinity school of the Pacific in

Berkeley with high scholastichonours.

He helped to found the True

sunshine Episcopal Mission in

San Francisco - an institution

which still stands today, serving

generations of Chinese natives,and Chinese-American youths.

Iremember vividly my first en­

counter with Father wu. It

was at True Sunshine Mission in

Oakland, which he had founded

soon after the San Francisco

fire and earthquake, and is now

called "Church of Our Saviour."

When I met Father Wu, it was

still called True Sunshine, ,anjit was located on Sixth Street

surrounded on one side by a

junk' yard, and the other sidethe Posey Tube to Alameda.

Across the s t r e e t was the

wooden-frame building of the

Four Family Association, which

later burned down.True Sunshine at that time

was a large building, which in

its better days was .a large barn.

Its spacious auditorium was

chapel, school, game roo m,storage closet, and library. Itwas here I learned the Lord's

Prayer and Apostle's Creed in

Cantonese. It was here one dayI ran headlong into Father Wuand almost knocked him down a

flight of stairs, so anxious was

I to get out of Chinese School.

'We met that day for the firsttime. Father Wu had taken -thesouthern Pacific's "cattle" ferryfrom San Francisco to visit hismISSIOn in Oakland. And he

talked me into singing in the

choir, and got me interested in

the Episcopal Church.The padre of Chinatown was

first of all an Anglican priest,preaching and living the powerof God. His life demonstratedwhat dynamic Christianity can

do for freedom of the human

soul in God. He was a man offaith who gladly mixed with the

people, for he often said, "Theseare God's children."

People who saw the sense ofdedication .which Father Wu

had could not help but turn to

God, praying, "I believe." For

Father Wu was a human whowas unafraid of getting his

hands dirty sweeping and mop­

ping parish halls. God made too

few men like him.

Goodbye Father Wu, you will

be missed, but your work forHis Kingdom will continue to

grow.

A TEARDROP ON A ROSE

While strolling through a lovelygarden,

As day was drawing to a close

My eyes beheld a tragic storyI saw a teardrop on a rose

It should have been a tear of

gladnessBut deep inside the sorrow

showed,A trusting heart had just been

brokenI saw a teardrop On a rose

A sobbing tear that follows

partingHolds all the pain that sorrow

knowsA false goodbye, a life is shattered

There lies a story on a rose

The tear will dry, the rose will

witherWhen Spring and Winter comes

and goesI loved, I lost, my story ended

With just a teardrop on a rose.
