Our body must be made stronger We area tired, Sleepy race and cannot compare with Western races in point Of energy or persistence in any un- dertaking."
 She became immensely absorbed in her topic, and continued:
 Are we really lacking in the de- sire to live, as compared to Euro peans?' She did not like to believe this to be true and would prefer to think that the lack is a temporary suspension of desire" The chief req son for this, she believed, is the pau city of nourishnaent in. Japanese food, with the result that the Japanese physique is inferior even to that of the Qorean or Chinese. We cannot expect energy to spring from a, bad physique and it is quite reasonable to- assume that this singular lack of desire to make the most of life on the part of the Japanese is due to bad nourishment of the body and a de- f1cient of the spirit
 She went on: with the body and the spirit of. the people both impelled to sleep it is no wonder that they have less power of appreciation, of creation, of understanding and en- so easily on trains. Naturally, they lack the intellectual ability of study scientifically how the cars on which l they ride daily are constructed. They can afford to be at ease without even understanding the nature of things half way.
 They have no attachment for either old or new things. They do not mind in what way they live as long as they can continue to live. They are willing to temporize in order to get along for the time being and will adopt or adapt any old or new thing so long asN these things render a tenn | porary service''
 It was a pity. Mrs Yosano thought | that the Japanese are so content with the surface of things and do not seek | to penetrate, to delve to the bottom The picture She painted was pessini tic. but she was supreme1y confident 1 that great and. good changes would come. "Remember,'' she said, "thai | to make life more ample, more com | plete, to make it more new, strong broad, fine, sympathetic and happy is the wish of Europeans, but the la panese ways are 1uke-warn1; thes rest satisfied with what they have or | hand They do not rise to be req | 'reasearchers, thinkers, originators 1 appreciators. Their civilization is ar imitation. not the product of tieil need. They have a love of nature 1T their own fashion; they have theil play with tea, their ABuddhistic ab.
 straction, their nationaHsrn. their Bu. 1 shido, their frugality, their compro
 mises. But these are all artifces in vented to excuse the luke-warmnesl of their life"

 exception are not opened to women and the first practical step which should be taken for the emancipa- ton of women in her country she be- lieves is ito open at once the gates of all universities and thus give to woman the opportunity for a higher education and se1f1developnnent.
 "I have read somewhere that in America and Europe the economic i'm
 dependence which seek for our
 women has caused a certain loss of
 charm and feminine ttractiveness,' 9
 she said, t.but do not fear huch a
 thing here.''
 She recalled the doctrine of Con- fucius which gives to women the in-
 ferior place and alluded to the pro- verb on that subject that is printed today in almost every Japanese school book It concerns the old Chinese idea that when woman becomes too active l-nterally, when the woman talks too
 much-the household falls. Man is l the fountain-head and man alone is responsible.
 The story is told in this way: Years ago a Chinaman heard his hen cry ing every morning in most unusual
 way. One day while returning from a visit to the Emperor the man was killed The nefghbors noticed that I the hen stopped crying immediately ] so the crying hen became symbolic o1 peril. When the Japanese adopted i this tale with the thousands of other Chinese fables they made the hen
 stand for womenEaud so the crying I troubled and revolting woman be- l came the symbol of family disorder and disaster.
 Mrs. Y osano did not agree that the l predicted evil would follow greater 1 freedom for women. But she wanted 1 Japanese women to be given a. fight I ing chance. She wanted some sort i of equality. She scarcely believed l that the women were ready for suf- frage. That might come later. Mean time there were so many other things 1 that were just and must be had. l want more European houses 1T I Japan for Japanese she declared l stand I want Western dress for women I I think we must come to it. admi I the old court costume for womer
 would please me most, but since w cent have that. let us follow the peo sI pie of the West.

England and France. pr. Porter de-
 scribed how the firm stand of the American statesmen and diplomats then against the chicanery of Genet and the bullying of the Red Repuh1i- cans of France had prevented an en- forced loan of $6, 100000 and a bonus of $25O,OOO for the Directory them tselves and also kept us. out of war with France.
 He said that Washington, then in retirement, was called to command the army and he quickly put this ma
 ton in such a state of pre- reparedness
 that not only France but England as \ we'll backed down.
 By a rare eombiha ton of broad
 rnindedness, observation, experience.
 self-restraint, discrimination. investi- i gation and mature deiiberation,
 washin gton initiated the methods,
 duties and customs of his high office
 in such a manner as to establish pre- cedents for 26 presidents who came after him. said pr. Porter.
 The doctor said that although it
 was common Knowledge that Wash 1 ington received no pecunniary re-
 turns for his services during the I Revolutionary war it was not gener- ally known that he took no salary
 while president and that also during 1 the Revolution he was made mar l shaf of France so that he might rank the French generals who served with him.
 1 Dr. Porter was given vote of thanks at the close of his address.
 The attendance at the afternoon s meeting, the second ever held by the lpost, was not as large as was expect ed. On the first Thursday afternoon I of September another afternoon meet ling will be held and all members not flied by post card.

Aokio, Aug 6-The woman most talked of in Japan, excepting only the Empress. is Mrs. Akfko Yosanos poet esss essayist, preacher to the ~com- matic Japanese movem ent to acquire greater rights for womanhood- Both.

 In a tiny Japanese house tucked away in the heart of the great Orien- tai metropolis where this poetess and apostle Of woman's rights carries Son her work, she received a correspo1ad- ent of The Associated Press The tim kle of the bell was answered by a young Japanese maid, who Drostrated herself on both knees. in Japanese fashion, to welcome the guest.

 Mrs. Yosano came in, accoTnpan- fed by her husband, and by Prof K. Wadakak,S of the Imperial Untyers- ity. who acted as interpreter. The poetess was dressed in a simple blue kimcno. Her black hair was coIled around her head; not arranged in, the classical Japanese style. She mod est1y, almost tfnidly, extended her hand in formal greeting.
 The impression of Parisian atmos- phere in the pictures and furnishing of the room was Justified for Mrs Yosano explained that with her hus- band she had spent some years in Paris and had not only lived in the Latin quarter but also in the historic district of Montnartre. Her husband had gone to Paris to study a new school of poetry and she as his disci- pie had followed him there WitE l fervor they had flung themselves into the art life of the great French me, tropolis.
