“江苏怪人”,这是人们赠给民国时期上海县(隶属江苏省)社会教育家张翼先生的雅号。当年曾有人为其作诗画像称:“此翁真古怪,饥寒都不怕。力行新生活,节约示模楷。热心为地方,冷面见官衙。混混浊世中,突兀遂称怪。”他为人宽厚,生活俭朴,乡亲们称颂其“东西南北一双脚,春夏秋冬两件衣”。他不畏权势,耿直敢言,在创办社会教育事业中,功绩卓著,享誉上海及当时的江苏省。 “Frankenstein in Jiangsu”, which is the nickname of Mr. Zhang Yi, a social educator in Shanghai (under the jurisdiction of Jiangsu Province) donated to the Republic of China. In the past, some people wrote poems and portraits for them, saying: “This is a wondrous man who is neither afraid of hunger nor cold. He tries his new life and economizes his mode. Generosity, frugal life, villagers praised its ”a pair of east and west feet, spring and summer and autumn and winter clothing." He defied his power and uprightly dared to say that he had a distinguished career in establishing social education and was renowned in Shanghai and then Jiangsu Province.
