Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility.

Considered from any viewpoint, the individual members of this group of six thousand students, representing fifty nations, are a most important factor in the spread of modern educa tion.

Judged from the political and commercial standpoint, the foreign students are an important class, because many of them represent families of wealth and political power.
