Our Japanese Sisters.

All girls in Japan are taught ethics.
They are told TO be filiai to their par
ents, true 10 their friends. kind to
brothers and sisters and to live peace
fully with their husbands. These prin.
ciples are taught to boys and girls alike
since 1890. when the emperor COM
manded it Before that girls were
taught according to the laws of the
Japanese sage. Kaibara. that their
great duty In life was obedience, first
to their parents and then to their hus-
bands. They were especially instruct
ed that they must regard their hus-
bands as gods. 1t is pretty hard to
make twentieth century woman sub
scribe to that doctrine even In Japan.

and China. Kate Epson Clark in Les

leaps and bounds.
It has reached such q high point

The Wholesale price Of dressed beef
n Philadelphia was from 14h to 16A

to scarcity of cattle. According to Of
