CHINESE BECOME
SOCIAL PIONEERS
Men and Women Form Good Fell
lowship Club Together Under
7. w. c. A. Leadership.

The Good Fellowship Club has made
its appearance in society In Hangchow,
China.
II began with the desire OF a pro-
gressIve young Chinese doctor 10 give
his coinpatriots. especially the Chris
tlnns. some healthful form Of social In
| terconrse.
Channels for a good, clean, social
| life among Chinese people are very
limited Until recently becoming
Christian often meant cutting oneself
on from ones friends and relatives,
also from feast days and festivals.
AS for Joint meetings OF men and wom-
en--weli, such thing was never heard
Of In decent society.
The young doctors plan of having
club where men and their wives
might come together to enjoy a good
time with ench other was discouraged
and shifted at However, few people
agreed to be pioneers In the cause OF
social intercourse, and Y. w. c. A. sec
retarles 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 q joke. How
ever, the members kept on meeting, |
first at 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 a
friends home. The women began to
enjoy the outing and to take part In
the dlscussions-an intelligent part,
too--mucb TO the surprise of their hus-
bands.
The membership grew. The clubs
fame began to spread. At first the dis
cussions of the club were conducted In
English. Soon IL became necessary
for them to be carried on In Chinese
so that more of the women could un-
ierstand and take part Many of the
'coffers began to apply for admission.
The members began indulglng In much
friendly chatting and occasionally for
,ot their dignity to play Jokes on one
mother. Finally II became so large
hat II had to be divided into two sec
ions, which met separately three
tuesday evenings In the month and on
he fourth Tuesday met together for a

ENGLISH is COMMON TONGUE.
Chinese Girls Learn It to Talk to One
Another.

Chinese women students in the Tung
Flu College. Peking, China, are obliged
to learn English in order to talk with
one another because of the different
dialects used by the student body.
Girls from the extreme western
provinces OF China, who attend the
school, must remain in Picking during
all of the eight years required for
their high school and college train
ing, because to return each summer
would require six weeks for the trip
one way and would cost more than
trip to America and return.
Girls from each of the western
provinces speak different language
and they cannot understand one an
other any more than they can the girls
from northern, southern, eastern or
central provinces. Hence. they have
adopted English as common tongue.
