Sudden Drop in Price.
LOS ANGELES, Nov. 29.-A sudden
drop in the price Of eggs from 10 cents
to 55 cents dozen brought forth today
the fact that for month 1000 women,
members Of the Los Angeles Parent.
Teacher association, quietly and per.
sistently have been boycotting that
commodity.
So far the boycott has been individ-
ual, but Mrs. J. D. Taylor, the presi-
dent Of the organization, declared to-
day that If the price did not drop still
further soon she would call officers Of
the body into conference to consider a
formal boycott.
If that action were taken, It would
mean that 5000 women would not buy
eggs for themselves or their families,
Other women s organizations in Los
Angeles and vicinity are said to be CON
templating similar action.

ultimately; but being pioneers, we have to move slowly and build a firm foundation.
 The special piece Of work that has been delegated to me is that of or ganiZing an association in the large private school here in the concessions It is under the supervision of the Methodist Episcopal mission and draws a great number of the wealthy girls of the city. and at present from the refugees, also. It is of high school grade. although some of the girls are older than the average American high school girl Nearly all are so ladylike and refined that it is a pleasure to know them. In this school there are some strong Chris tian girls and numbers who are non Christian. It is fortunate for our work just now at the beginning to have had such a warm invitation to this particular school, for it stands high in the minds of the Chinese. As soon as the girls come back from their vacation We will begin organi- zing the association It will be on the plan of our own Wellesley C. A. There will be the board comprising the chairmen of the different commit tees. such as the membership, Bible study, social. religious meetings and extension committees. These will do practically what the same committees do back at college, excepting the eX tension committee, whose work it is to arrange for meetings among the hospital patients every week. l can hardly wait for the girls to return so we can begin.
 Then there is another group of women who need the associatiOn-the young wives of the students who have been educated abroad They feel so far behind their husbands that they are anxious for anything that will help establish a point of contact with them when they return. So we are helping them with English and Bible classes. Then, too, we are ready to help them with foreign cooking classes. These have been suggested by the Chinese and if we find they really intend to take them seriously, we shall be glad to help them in this way too.
 Tn this house that we are renting is a large association room where the girls and women may feel at home. and I am looking forward to the so- cial afternoons with them for l be- leve that there is a great deal that
 can be done for them along these lines In this room will be the ;,sso- citation library; ALL the books that have been translated into Chinese that are good for girls and women, both
 secular and religious This is open ! f. hn o mo | table and also a system by which ! books can be taken home. This ought 1 to mean a very great deal to them
 for there is such a dearth of good ! reading in this country.
 ! This is only the beginning of things
 as yet, but oh, the possibilities and
 the opportunities We could do any amount more if there were more sec

to investigate and see what this Christian deligion stood for and they took up the study in earnest. These girls were actually drilled by the regular army officers and they studied about forty of them. It gave one q shock to go into their rooms and see the cartridges and military charts spread out on their desks. They are ready for anything and everything new, and of course that is the danger After Christmas, Miss Savelby, our British cO-WOrker, was called to Shanghai to help with the refugees down there The Young Womens s Christian association did splendid work among the women who had fled there from the Yangtse Valley dis trict, helping them to find quarters in which to live, offering them lee lures along the lines of nursing and general knowledge and making them fell that they had friends in the strange city
 But this year. we are really open ing up work. Our provisional Ad- visOry Committee, formed of foreign | n, have begun their work with hopeful enthusiasm. Tientsin is a big edu- catiOnal center and has a splendid
 government normal school for girls,
 to which girls are sent from all over the country. Our main work is among these government school girls both
 from this and other schools in the city. They are interested in Bible
 study and welcome the opportunity
 to enter Bible classes Some speak
 English quite well and are ready
 for social afternoons for the prac-
 tice of conversational English or read
 ing circles, taking up the works of
 Scott and Dickens and others. Then
 just at present, they are very anxi-
 ous to learn how to make foreign clothes, so we have received petition for a dressmaking class, with in struction as to how to use the ma
 chimes We have almost finished the arrangements for a large two StOried brick house in the French Concession and we hope to move in shortly. The committee feels that as the Chinese are still living in the Concessions in large numbers, it would be wiser to rent this house for a year and work among them. The next year 1 when he hope all will be quiet, the women will be moving back to theil ! homes in other cities and to the l Chinese city of Tientsin, called Hope 1 Then we shall move too and live il ! the Chinese city with them. Ina 1 is where we are to locate permanently 1 for this Tientsin Work-in Hopei-

ANCIENT FIRE BRICK

 What is regarded as one of the earliest specimens of original iron works in the United States is the Pickering 'fireback,' in possession of the Essex institute at Salem. It was cast at the old Saugus iron works for the home of John Pickering in Sa lem al a period when iron fOundries were rare in New England. The first house of John Pickering, the ancestor of the Salem PickeringS, was built in 1852 in Broad street, Salem. Its architectural scheme brings to mind the style of the English manor dwell ing.
