LECTURES BEFORE
THE COMMONWEAL
t
Dr. Mullowney Who Speaks on
Cliincse Characteristics Or
i
ganized First Red Cross
Dr. John J. Mullowney. of the State
Department of Health, will lecture on
"Phineae Characteristics" for the Com
monweal Club on Monday evening,
April. 2, at 7.45 sharp, in the Young
Women's Christian Association Build
ing. l'ourth and Walnut streets, Ilur
risburg.
After graduating from the Medical
College of the University of Penn
sylvania, in 1908, Dr. Mullowney went
to China and wns appointed professor
in the North China Union Medical Col
lege. where he taught for three and
one-half years, studying the language
from six to eight hours each day, as
all teaching was done in the Chinese
language. ,
Or. Mullowney's stay in China cov
ered one of the greatest periods in
Chinese history. During the first year
the famous Kmpress Dowager died and
"news of the death of both Empress
and Emperor came out of the forbid
den city at the same time." After
their deaths, n little baby of three
years was proclaimed Emperor.
The big event of the second year of
his work there was the breaking out
of the bubonic plague eighty miles to
the north of Peking. At the request
of the Chinese Government, the North
China Union Medical College and the
American .doctors were called to fight
this most dreadful of diseases.
Saw Chinese Revolution
During the third year the great rev
olution occurred which eventually end
ed in the overthrow of the Manchu.
Again the Chinese Government re
quested the Medical College and the
foreign doctors to assist in caring for
the sick and wounded. With two other
American doctors Dr. Mullowney or
ganized the first Red Cross Corps in
North China. At first they experienced
considerable difficulty In getting per
mission to work under lied Cross rules
which would take them down Into the
revolution territory. With this as a
nucleus, the Chinese have now organ
ized a regular Red Cross Society, rec
ognized by the Chinese Government
and of which Dr. Mullowney Is an hon
orary member.
Both the epidemic and the revolution
afforded splendid opportunities for see
ing the country, getting acquainted
with the people and learning their lan
guage, manners and customs.
These and many more interesting
things will he told by Dr. Mullowney
when ho delivers his illustrated lec
ture next Monday night. A cordial in
vitation is extended to all who are
interested. The lecture is entirely
free.
