...problem is not a simple one. The nature of a course in harmony is such that if catered to absolute beginners, it would lose a great deal of its value for concentrators. The ideal solution would appear to be the institution of a General Education course in music including the basic elements of harmony.

Consequently, Fukien abounds in lush woodlands which, unfortunately, provide ideal hideouts for various killers, including Communists and tigers. Nationalist soldiers (as if the Communists were not enough) have found themselves beset by the tiger menace...
