Louisiana. Despite the enormous rice
crop In Japan, the harvest is not suf-
ficient to feed its population, and i'm.
portation is necessary,
investigation In Hokkaido, tho north
ern island of Japan, shows likelihood
of considerable increase OF exports to
the United States, especially beans,
canned crab, shrimp and sardincs, which
are IN great demand in the Atlantic
coast states, For two years there has
been spirited competition between the
European and the American buyers for
the canned crab Of Hokkaido. On ac-
count OF the better shipping facilities
the European buyers have been enabled
to pay higher price. AS most Of these
crabs go to New York, buyers will no
doubt ship direct by steamer from Yo.
kohama to New York.
Demand for Beans.
The same is true OF the bean trade,
the demand in the United States for
Hokkaido beans being larger every
year. There also is Fl big demand in
New York and the Atlantic cities for
Japanese oak and timber. This is now
bought by the Germans and the British,
shipped to Europe via Suez and re-
shipped to New York.
With the opening OF the Panama
canal American buyers will doubtless
purchase directly and have their con-
signments shipped by way Of American
waterway, thus saving the profit that
goes to German and British merchants.
Thus both In exports and in imports
the Atlantic seaboard will benefit in
trade by the completion Of the canal,

Done BY Village Women.

Here are some of the things I myself
have seen done by women in small places:
A library started. This was done by a
teacher whose health had forced her to re-
turn to little country home, and who se-
cured one of the travelling libraries and
kept it in her own sitting room. 1t served
as a nucleus for something larger. and
now has a home of its own.
A sewing class among factory girls. One
of the heads of departments began this to
help two girls who were getting their we'd
ding clothes ready. and the work grew.
A working girls club. This started as
social club and developed into an aid So
ciety as well, organizing a camp for work.

could tell of more. but these will serve
as a sample of what may be done in small
places without outside influence. where
earnest women did the next thing and made
a success of it. Gossip may not have been
eliminated from any of these towns and
villages, but it has been wonderfully
lessened. and the new interests introduced
by these organizations are bound to grow
and to choke scandal mongering sooner o.,
later. Try one Of them and see. And X
others of you can report similar efforts fou

opening before you
When you read of the early missionaries
in California. for instance, this will lead you
to Parkman and his accounts of the Jesuits

thrilling English history and the beginnings
of the story of the United States.
Don't confine yourself to this but, II you
can, join class in current events or go
to lectures on these; find out the important
matters in state politics. read the daily
papers and see what Is going on in the

authors and copy such- portions of their

loose as missionaries in gossip infested
quarters to preach gospel that would

Yet in the places where scandal is most
plentiful there are always those who long
to turn the energy and time expended upon
aimless or harmful gossip to better things.
I wish with all my heart that this little
talk today could serve as a suggestion to
you of the work awaiting you close at hand.
I do not mean you are to set yourself upon
a pedestal and condemn the habits OF those

No Thrill in Good Report.

Does this sound severe? Think about 1t
for a minute. If Mrs. Brown tells you that
Mrs. Black S husband is good, sober, hard
working man, always regular in his home-
coming, and of steady habits you are nat
urally glad to hear such good reports of
him. but you are not thrilled. Compare the
effect upon you Of this statement with a
story from her lips of how Mr.. Black comes
home two or three nights out of the week in
a state of fierce intoxication, or that he new
er fails to call on a neighbors pretty wife
when her husband is out of the way, or that
he neglects his own wife and pays atten-
tion to some charming girl Don't you know
that you crave details of his shortcomings

domestic happiness?
Garry the idea a little further. Put your
self in the place of the one who supplies the
news and think how much more attention
you command when you can give a striking
story of some little occurrence and you will
appreciate the temptation besetting all of
us to make the most of any small piece Of

little country town and the re-
mark l have just quoted was made by my
landlady. From the corner where l had
settled myself with my book, could see,
when l lifted my eyes, lovely prospect of

my absorption in my book was matter of
no Importance and that would prefer to

would tell me of the doings of the villagers.
My interest in humanity in general and in
particular is deep and genuine, and many
of the bits of information vouchsafed by
my companion took my attention and
prompted me to further questioning. But

ever. l sat down and thought again, as
had often thought before, on the preva-
lence of gossip in small towns.
The dictionary gives - scandal " as one
synonym for gossip .; -" tattling " is an
other. When we are charitably disposed
we are prone to discriminate between them
and to look upon gossip as kindly and as
opposed to the harsher terms Yet the line
separating them is almost imperceptible
and easily crossed--the more easily be-
cause pleasing reports of our neghbors'
conduct are far less Interesting than state
ments spiced with something a trife more
startling.

To my mind the first step to be taken
towards modifying gossip is the acquisi-
ton of a more abundant charity. We should
be badly off if we hadfno interest in the
affairs of one another The trait which
leads you to try to make life easier for your
poor neighbor, to endeavor to cheer the
downcast and to comfort the afflicted.
Is an offshoOt of this same attention to the
concerns of others which If wrongly ex-
