and payment Is made by the yard
according to the number OF bobbins
used, the kind OF lace and the pattern.
The wages OF lacemaker range from
30 to 500 cash (about N to 25 cents
United States currency at normal ex-
change) a day, depending upon the
skill of the worker and the amount OF
time devoted TO the work.
Although there are no factories the
mission schools which teach lace
making are practically on a factory
basis, but in comparison with the
entire lace output OF the district the
lace made in these schools is not an
important factor.
Up to the present exporters have
been content to purchase finished laces
from brokers. but the practice is now
being introduced by smaller Chinese
exporting firms of supplying thread to
the workers and paying them for their
labor. AS. however. these firms find
difficulty in directly importing suitable
foreign thread for their purposes, little
progress has been made In this
method.
In spite OF numerous handlcaps. such
as the import restrictions OF belliger-
ent countries. the increased cost OF
foreign thread and high silver ex-
change exports OF lace showed an in
crease OF about SO per cent. in value
in 1918 as compared with the previous
year. In actual quantity there is
probably little change, the value in
crease being due mainly to higher
prices and exchange. AS. however,
much OF the lace was made OF three
cord Japanese thread instead OF six
cord English thread. the fact that the
market held its own in quantity is not
so favorable when quality is con-
s!dered. This decline in quality is not
so apparent before use without expert
examination. but shows up after the
lace has been washed.

Wars Effect on the Lace Industry

TIME art Of lace making was first
taught to the Chinese at Che
- foo by foreign missionaries
about twenty five years ago. They be-
lieved that by teaching lace making
the women and girls would find profit
able employment within their, own
homes, and the subsequent spread of
the industry has fully justified their
efforts. Although first taught in Che
foo. Chi Hsia Hsien was the first In
which lace was extensively made.
In 1895 a British missionary. James
MCMILLAN. established an institution
called the Chefoo Industrial Mission
and concentrated the lace Industry.
With a small beginning in local retail
sales. retail exporting followed and
gradually developed into wholesale
transactions. About fifteen years ago
the making Of thread laces, in addition
to silk lace, was introduced, and with
the use of Belgian and French pat
terms Chefoo nrst entered into COM
petition with European laces.
The original laces being made OF
silk. the industry was self centred as
Chinese made silk thread was used. At
the present time silk lace being out OF
fashion. the amount produced Is al
most negligible. or the entire output

past years a very frequent visitor at
Chesterfield House-which during the
last two years of the war was lent to
the American special mission and has

made. An improvement was later
made by using a cylinder approx
mately three inches in diameter, which
revolves above nat board on which
the bobbins rest, In place of the cush-
ion. The pattern is attached to the
cylinder so that when 1t is revolved
the design is continuous. In this way
the pins are removed and advanced as
required and the finished lace passes
over the back of the cylinder. Under
the former system the design being OF
limited length, 1t was necessary to re-
move all the pins and shift the I'M
finished end of the lace to the top of
the design In order to continue the
work.
Filet lace Is made by using a knitted
mesh which is stretched over a frame,
the pattern being embroidered with a
needle.
The number OF bobbins used In
making lace varies from eight to more
than 500. according to the kind and
the design.
Until the European war upset trade
conditions English thread was used
almost entirely In the lacemaking In
dustry.
The war. however. enabled threads
OF Japanese manufacture to enter into
serious competition with those OF Eng
fish make. Lace made from Japanese
thread, although its initial appearance
Is satisfactory. Is said to be defective
In wearing qualities, and after being
washed the strands OF the thread
separate and the lace becomes uneven
and loose.
American thread has not appeared
In the market there, although during
the last two years firms have made
repeated efforts to make suitable con-
nections with thread manufacturers In
the United States.
Thread is distributed to the workers
by native brokers. who pay for the
labor and collect and sell the finished
lace to the exporters. The work is

Considerable care should be taken,

one-fourth to one-half teaspoon OF
