gradually being made.
The first year of the new cen
tury was marked by the establish

The difficulty of making the
people appreciate the value of
female education is strikingly
shown by the fact that after
twenty years of experience, sew
enty- nine per cent of the boys of
school age were under instruc-
tions, but only forty-seven per
cent of the girls.
The principal branches taught
in the elementary schools, are
reading, writing, arithmetic, Uap-
anese and foreign,) composition,
grammer, geography, history,
physical exercise and morals,

Those in the middle and higher
schools are Japanese and Chinese

mates. sciences, philosophy,

both to speak, write and translate

university may study Latin. Greek
and Sanskrit.

The example of missionary
educators in Japan had powerful
influence on the government in
the days when women's education
was a mooted question.
AS early as 1867 Mrs. J. c. Hep
burn was teaching Japanese girls
at Yokohama and in 1870 Mrs.
Corrothers began her work in
Toxic. al
When the Kobe girls college
was planted in 1878 the Japanese
gave 1000 towards the first build
ing. Thus in various provinces
the system of education was
graded and made harmonious for
the entire Empire. a

only in the elementary schools.

as vitiated taste, loss of refinement
of manner. undue forwardness,
conceit, unithess' for the duties of
married life and in some cases
looseness Of morals are alleged to
be the fruits of modern training.
1t is granted that, in any
country the school may fail to
make philosopher of Ounce
and it has undoubtedly turned
many heads, male as well as fe-
male, but judging the school by
its average product it does not
deserve this sweeping criticism.
Western education will change
the social status of women and
with this change will come the
overturn of many former Gus
toms. The objections to more
advanced education of Japanese
women have striking similarity
to those formerly insisted on in
America and England.
The moral problems connected
with higher education, is a ques-
ton that has occupied the minds
of many thinking men. 1t is
argued in some western lands
that government education should
not be connected in any way with
religious teaching, that the prop
agation of christian truth is the
work of the church whose agents
are not controlled by the state.
In a non christian land however,
state education raises greater
moral and religious problems.

education in Japan on morals.

GOVERNMENT EDUCATION
OF japanese Women, Higher Educ alton
and Moral Problems.
BysfRs. vIo1.rT cLARK.

During the feudal era of JaPa-
nese history. no provision was
made by the state tor the educa.
tion of women. which largely ex-
plains the subordinate position
accorded them. The position OF
women during this era is in strong
contrast to that of the age of
chivalry in Europe, and Bud
dhism and Confucianism are
rightly charged by Japanese as
being the false teachers Of the
nation.
That interesting Japanese docu-
ment, "The Great Learning for
Women" sets forth the former at
titude of the nation towards
women's education. 1t says. "The
FIVE worst maladies that effect the
female mind are indocility, dis
content. SANDER, jealousy md silli-
ness. Without doubt these FIVE
maladies effect seven or eight out
of every ten women" 1t then
proceeds to lay down the law,
that, such is the stupidity of her
character that it is incumbent on
her to distrust herself and obey
her husband"
Such was the insolence shown
towards the mental development
of women in general up to the
time of the restoration in 1868
General Koroda, who was then
head of the Colonial department
of the government advised that a
few young women ofgood family
be sent to the United States to be
educated. The Emperor approved

CHANGE IN COAST LINES
Centuries Have Made Many VicissG-
tudes in Shores of the Bay
of Naples.

Not for the first time has the
shore of the Bay of Naples
changed its ancient level. The
earth movements on the Neapol-
itan coast were exhaustively
studied by British exploring
party only three years ago, and
the discovery vas made that. the
more important movements of
the land were not due to sudden
seismic causes, but to those slow
and majestic processes that af-
feet the coast lines of CONT
nents.
But sudden disturbance does
not account for the burrows Of
marine shell fish now found in
the columns of the Temple of
Scraps. - feet above sea level.
The British searchers were able
to collect evidence showing that
since the Roman dominion the
Neapolitan coast sank 30 feet,
and then rose about 20 feet, and
that this tremendous change
was of a gradual character.
A good many delusions were
dissipated as the result of these
! fresh inquiries. The submerged
Roman ruins along the coast
used to be regarded as founda-
tion walls thrown out for sea
baths, but it was made clear
that they are the remains of
noble mansions and that they
point to the time when the land
on which they stood was far
above the level of the sea. The
shore is in fact strewn with the
/ wreck of buried cities. Coast
roads have vanished, ancient
quarries been flooded and the
breakwaters of the harbOrs of
classical story covered fathoms
deep with water.
! OF Lord Rosebery's villa,
down in the bottom of the sea,
covering dozens of acres, lie the
ruins of many buildings. A
great submarine sea wall, with
concrete piers II feet high, still
protects the fragments. But
neither the fragments nor the
great sea wall have been visible
in the light of day for 1000
] years.
