...fervent in celebrating their great anniversaries with firecrackers and rejoicings, Chinese this year have been grimly preparing to hurl a supreme counteroffensive against Shanghai's Japanese invaders as the best way of celebrating famed Double-Ten, "The 10th Day of the 10th Month," which fell this week on Sunday, the 26th Anniversary of the Revolution of 1911 by which Chinese overthrew the Manchu Dynasty.

...stories, fables, philosophies, and poetry which make up the Old Testament are manifold, and, as far as the Vagabond is concerned, those few bits with which he is conversant are eternal and inviolate--chiselled into his youthful Sunday School memory while it was yet malleable.
