Chinese Farm School.
A Chinese Farm School where youthful Celestials can learn how to become intelligent tillers of the soil instead of crowding into Chlnatown, as now, is a proposed innovation against which the residents of Croyden, near Bristol, Pa., are up in arms, says the Philadelphia Record. The buildings will be Chinese in design, and a Chinese cemetery with a Chinese temple, will also be provided for. The cemetery will take up about fifteen acres out of forty-eight purchased. The balance of the property will be turned into a model farm. It is also in contemplation to provide a school there, where the Chinese will be instructed in English and where every effort will be made to improve them. The school, which will start with fifty Chinamen, is exciting a good deal of interest among local Celestials.
