The Batchelder bill to give up the

jority of the county members and the
repair plan agreed to.

terribly far from completion all these re-
forms are only those know who have seen
the degradation and compelling poverty
at first hand of the life of the mass of the
Chinese people. But this much is certain:
that the spirit of these reforms has got
home to the common people in a way, be
it ever SO little, that will inevitably tend
steadily to raise the lot of women in years
to come. They have created something
more nearly like Il national renaissance in
the moral fiber of the people than any
other period of social reform recorded
about China.
Like the woman movement all over the
world, the emergence of women in China is
above everything a spirit of humanism,
regeneration of enduring instincts for good
in both sexes, and widening of that area
of contact and understanding between
men and women which inexorably grows
with civilization. In their capacity for
progress there are, believe. no women in
Asia like the women of China. Beside
Japan. China is counted as one of the
worlds weak nations. But in the moral
regeneration that is bringing about the
emergencc into modern life of her women
she is fulfilling Il deeper and more anthem
tic test of civilization than has been met
by Japan in all her fifty headlong years of
material progress.

by that door Western industrialism is en-

lives of the women of China. AS yet there
are no laws, either against the foreigner,
who is mainly responsible for these things,
or for the Chinese. who are so far merely
their minor competitors. There are no
laws, no statistics, and hardly any general
knowledge or consideration.
NOW in this stratum of the national
life, now in that, the pervasive hand
of evolution ccaselessly continues its en-
during work of alteration in the status of
women. This revolution has been no
mere ephemeral effervcscence of the coast
cities: it has penetrated to the ultimate
hearthstone of the people on whom all
Chinese civilization rests,-the countless
millions of the peasantry. 1t has reached
them because it possesses the only quality
in the world that could reach them it is
above all Il moral revolution. Consider

"has promised Matte that she will get
her invitations in some way for that ball.
Matte is evidently sure of this now, as
she told me that the only thing necessary
was to be known to Mrs. Delamer. and she
has given IA hurried order at her dressmak-
er's for Il new gown. Now do not want
Matte to be identified in any way with
the Delamer set at least this year. If she
is, goodby to our work for the revival of

reason later. Now help me. You must

IN the whirl of the season | did not find
it easy to get hold of Flora; but finally
located her at an afternoon affair at the
Plaza, where joined her. We had tea
and a heartto-heart talk. So far Flora
had been square; at least no damage had
been done. Matte had forced the meet
ing with Susan Delamer The latter had
nodded over to Miss McAIasters at the
close of the charity performances. This
was an 5. O. S. signal. and it was to con-
suit her about some detail of the ball.
"Mattie just stuck to me. came over
with me, and stood there, planted firmly
in front of Susan. and | could do nothing
else" Flora explained. at was IL ease of
ships passing in the night Susan did not
even catch the name"
So far, all right. | then came down to
business. After much verbal sparring
found that Flora had promised Matte to
use her influence to secure the coveted in
vitations. And her previous explanation
in this light was fishy. knew that she
sometimes supervised these lists, helping
Mrs. Dclamers secretary, and she could
easily slip in the Vandams' names But
she made out the service as Il difficult adj
venture and a great favor, and Matte had
swallowed it all, even to the introduction
to the great lady herself
1t was hard diplomatic nut to crack

ton that | had just had with Vandam
She must write Matte II letter that very
day, in which she would tell her that
Susan Deamer regretted it deeply, but
she could not at this late hour send out
