.Janan's Feudal War.

The history Of the reudal warfare In
Japan is replete with instances of the
heroism OF the women. It often hap
pened that the wife of daimio was
called upon to defend the castle from
attack during the absence of her hus-
band. She was well qualified for the
task both by training and experience.
Considering what Japan has been In
the past, it does not seem strange
that the Japanese woman OF today
should possess a keen martial spirit
and intense patriotism.
