WOMEN IN CHINESE REVOLUTION
"The history of what women did in the
Chinese revolution writes Gardner l..
Harding in Oriental News and Comment,
has never been written and by most for
eigners it has never bee~ imagined. We
heard for instance. of Chinese women
getting measured for mems uniforms and
going up to fight at Marking and IIankow.
We heard of turbulent crowds of women in
enthusiastic meetings flinging their iewelry
on the platform for the war chest Of the
revolutionary cause; we heard of women
bomb throwers, of women spies, Of women
members of the Dare To Die corps. and
of a dozen other picturesque and spirited
activities with which women contributed n
new and spontaneous energy To Chinese
life during 1911 and 1912. But Of the
leadership which gave these things an in
|tcrpretative relation to the Chinese people
AZ a whole, we did not then have, and We
hardly have now, any direct information nj
all. There was such a leadership, created
in individual women and in groups of wo-
men by the vivid and Infectious aimoS
pherc of the time, but il was % perfectly
spontaneous on the part of the women who
responded to it, and its effects were 81
obscured by the broader strokes of the po-
htical revolution that we have never iden-
titled them alphabetically through names
or personalities. They are well worth q
better acquaintance" IL is well to recall
here that the first constitution of the first

Come out. come out. my Spartan dear
Come out and seek the sun.
My chilblains wake with throb and ache.
The merry springs begun.
Come ont and face the icy gale
That shakes the leafless tree:
Come out, come out. gcous love,
Come out and dare the spring with me
Put ON your ~stnutest macintosh,
Put ON Your goloshes, too,
For il has been showing all the night,
To make things nice for You.
Come out and slide on slushy lanes
Cold as the Arctic sea.
For jocund springs set in nj last:
Come ont and catch a cold with me.
