PERSIAN WoMEN'S SOCIETIES.

The American finance administrators who
went to Persia in May, 1911, TO reorganizs
the fiscal system Of that country were foro<
innate enough to win the confidence OF the
National Assembly, or Medjlis. a bodY
which fairly represented the hopes ana ass
pirations OF the great mass OF the PERSIAN
people. This point gained, we were soon
made aware that another great though
secret. influence was watching our wors
with Jealous but kindly eyes.
II is we'll known in Teheran that there
are dozens of more or less secret societies
among the Persian women, with central
organization by which they are controlled
To this day l know neither the names nor
the faces OF the leaders OF this group, bus
IN a hundred different ways We learned that
we were TO be befriended and supported by
the patriotic fervor Of thousands OF the
weaker sex.-W. Morgan Shuster In Tho
