LITTLE SWITZERLAND

In a speech in Congress, Senator
Owen, of Oklahoma, made this refer
cnce to the peculiar attitude of Swift
zerland during the great world war:
There is one Government in Eu-
rope based on Democracy, surrounded
by bclligcrent powcrs-Switzerla
one-thid German speaking, and yet
having a stability in government that
has remained mistaken decade after
decade, when Europe was hSaken with
wars. The Balkan wars never touch
ed Switzerland; the wars of 1S7O-71
did not touch Switzerland; this war,
with Switzerland surrounded on all
sides by warning nations, did not in
wade the land of Switzerland ;and with
It's boundaries fixed with government
of democracy, with all its laws sub
/ mittcd to the people in Switzerland
by referendum, so that no law
/ should 90 into effect without the will
of the people Of Switzerland, have
rivcn it Il stability that makes Swift
uerland a model to the world.
In the same speech Senator Owen
referred to the great changes taking
place in Europe, the vanishing OF
kings and monarchics, giving way to
liberal forms of government as the
result Of the defeat of Germany and
the Kaiser.
The monarchs of Bulgaria and Tur
key are gone. The nominal titles tha

Girls from each of the western

CHINESE BECOME
SOCIAL PIONEERS

The Good Fellowship Club has made
Its appearance in society in Hangchow,
China.
1t began with the desire Of pro-
gressive young Chinese doctor to give
his cOmpatriots, especially the Chris
tians, some healthful form of social in
terCOurSe
Channels for n good, clean, social
life among Chinese people are very
limited. Until recently becoming
Christian often meant cutting oneself
off from ones friends and relatives,
also from feast days and festivals.
AS for joint meetings OF men and wOm-
en--well. such a thing was never heard
Of In decent society.
The young doctors plan of having
a club where men and their wives
might come together to enjoy a good
time with each other was discouraged
and shifted at. However, a few people
agreed to be pioneers In the cause Of
social intercourse, and Y. w. c. A. sec
retaries agreed to help make the club
a success.
At first the meetings OF the club
were laughed at by outsiders and the
whole affair considered a joke How
ever, the members kept on meeting,
first ut one house and then at another.
Soon the men got over the feeling of
strangeness at starting out with their
wives on Tuesday evening for n
friends home TIE women began to
enjoy the outing and to take part in
he discussions-an intelligent part,
al ri 90 hot h,c
bands.
The membership grew. The clubs
; fame began to spread. At first the dis
cusSions Of the club were conducted in
| English. Soon 1t became necessary
for them to be carried on in Chinese
so that more Of the women could un-
derstand and take part. Many OF the
sCoffers began to apply for admission.
The members began indulging i'm much
| friendly chatting and occasionally for
got their dignity TO play jokes on one
| another. Finally II became so large
that it had to be divided into two sec
| tions, which met separately three
| Tuesday evenings IN the month and on

are still a bit shy about talking In

them show signs Of great executive
ability and power OF leadership. They
are all well poised, clear thinking indi

MEXICAN AFFAIRS

The Atlanta Constitution sent one

James A. Holloman, to investigate
conditions in Mexico at first hand.
From one of his letters this extract
is made that gives some sight as to
the real situation.
There is no government in Mexico.
The Carranza regime is merely the
the revolutionary party at present
in charge of the government machine
ry; and maintained by the same force
of revolutionary arms that put it
there.
There are not less than 100000

RULES FOR HUNTING

There are great many fatal ac-
cidents happening to hunters that
could be avoided by more carefulncss.
Some one has suggested the following
rules that if observed would prevent
many accidents.
Every man who carries a gun into
the field this fall should obey the fol-
lowing rules:
Never shoot at anything until you
know what it is.
Never carry loaded gun in ve-
hicle or boat.
Never point a gun at any human
being.
Never drink Intoxicating liquors
when hunting.
Never darw u gun toward you muz-
zle first.

service work, subscription lists Tor the
orphanage, cake making, types Of
stoves, baby diets, the latest engage
ment and other topics such as one
would hear discussed by a group Of
women gathered together any place In
America.
The social part Of the evening Is Civ.
en- over to games, which at first
astound the sober Chinese gentlemen,
but which they take up with great zest
after the first evening. And their
wives enjoy 1t Just as greatly.
Real American picnics are the latest
thing which the club has tried, and
they are a great success. Christmas
play is being planned now.
