[Footnote 16: Giles, op. cit., p. 74. Professor Giles adds, _à propos_

have meant 'no familiarity.'"]

[Footnote 20: As far as anti-militarism is concerned, Taoism is even
more emphatic. "The best soldiers," says Lao-Tze, "do not fight."
(Giles, op. cit. p. 150.) Chinese armies contain many good soldiers.]
