and others whom / have met in different
parts Of Europe that there were abso-
lutely no social distinctions in America;
that n woman of education or refinement
who came here and elected to go into
domestic service did not sacrifice any
thing at all and that her friends and
associates might be among the most
cultivated, the wealth;est and the most
progressive women she met. The reality
| have found to be quite different. i
should say from my W experience
that there is no country in the world
where class distinctions are SO rigid and
that there is no place where women and
men are less free than in his land Of much
Wanted liberty.
Liberty here Ia an idea. an imaginary
quality and just as soon as people cross
the ocean and look at things through
the haze of distance they seem to see the
ideal state rather than the real aud il

Way back in the dark ages Of the FEM
mist movement, that is by Nora's cal
endar eight years ago. she faced her
father one day with the information
that she was a Socialist. The information
marked her seventeenth birthday.
in order to appreciate that situation
says Nora. you would have to know
Holland as it was. 1t is conservative
enough now, but in comparison with
sven that time it has advanced mar
~vellously. My father had the prevailing
belief Of the time that a socialist was
merely a bomb thrower. remember
the event perfectly. We were walking
along the street in Arnheim. the little
town where we lived. and my father IA
perfectly quiet until we reached home.
Then we did not talk on the subject at
all, We just quarrelled. 1t ended In my
apparent submission. Il I'm not OF age
7 told him, and I annot disobey. but
the matter is merely deferred. We will
not repeat this experience. but remem-
Der, there is no real obedience. only sub
mission
in Holland at that time a girl could
take a course OF instruction to At her
for a teacher, but only in the most OK
ceptional cases must she apply that
teaching to practical purposes. She was
born to we'd. She learned to be a house,
wife. and at 20 IL she was not married

ming over the floor and there are dirty
children and rumpled kittens under foot
and nothing but sauerkraut. A second
look shows a pair of clean white muslin
curtains; moreover, they are tied with
white ribbons, and white ribbons are
almost as rare as blue.
just at this point you detect some bright
looking girls in gray and white uniforms
spick and span with long white aprons,
They are going head on toward the Dutch
Aunt sign and they stop long enough to
tell you hat they are connected with the
Flower Hospital, and while they don't
need To take their regular e outside
they like a stray bite now and then OF
food with the flavor OF the home made
about it. Besides that the Dutch interior
furnishes a nice quiet place to chat in
and it has become quite a rendezvous
for those Of their profession, and besides
there Is Nora What, not e Nora?
Well. she is simply worth the whole price
Of admission. that's all they can say. and
t. know Nora is to argue yourself n
stranger.
You get acquainted quickly with Nora,
merely by opening the door, for in add
ton to the promises made by means
of the lettered signs fastened in the win
dow and the swinging sign outside Nora
has a welcoming n which ought to
put many dollars in her pocket. Later
on. in the hour you spend with her, you
discover that Nora doesn't deal in any
thing so emphatic as a dollar. Small
change is her speciality and she is quite
firm in the belief that she can furnish more
in the way of quality, not quantity, for a
few dimes than any n else.
In the chase for newspaper copy you
occasionally come upon the unexpected,
and certainly nothing more unexpected
than Nora could be found in that locality.
Her face is as pretty and az round as a ripe
apple. She is dressed like a Dutch vrouw
and when she takes you into her kitchen
so she can talk to you while she cooks. the
first thing she does is to take down q lace
capfrom a nail. After fastening her hair in
place with the wide gold band underneath
the cap, she pulls with practised hand
the ends Of the lace through Sits on either
side, and pins them firmly with gold
headed pins. When completed the dark
hair is neatly covered and above the en-
closed ears two rectangular bits Of gold
topped by the pins lend distinction to the
headgear. Then she calmly goes about
her ~housewifely tasks, cooking ham and
eggs and cutting real bread, made Tues

IN one of which I know there wer.
over $50 looms. The power for tbi.

IN connection with this, there are the
| bleaching and dyeing factories. So
that the growing of cotton means a
| large number of industries in connec-
ton with it.
1here was a cry from the cotton
planters in Peru for experiments with
regard to developing the industry. |
volunteered my services to help them
start an experimental station, and this
was done. Included in the experiments
made were those dealing with fertilizer.
the planting and selecting of seed, and
the irrigation and cultivation of the
soil. [ also opened the sugar laboratory
Tor their use; and analysis of soils. fer
tlllzer, and other materials were made.
One difficulty in Peru with both the
cotton and the sugar industries is that
when the price of cotton is high the
painters begin to tear up their sugar
land to plant cotton, and visa versa.
mas has long been a trouble there.
with regard to the cotton Industry
IN Hawaii / am glad to see that there
are indications that the industry is 90

small way for many years in Hawaii
and L get from the best authority that

number of people in the Islands. If |
remember correctly, the Big Boil and
Sea Island were the varieties used. Elk
periments were carried on with good re-
suits, favorable reports being made on |
the cotton produced by experts.
Ny own basis of estimating the |
possibility of success in the cotton in, |
1ustry in Hawaii is this: Can the bust !
