What American Rule has Done for
Filipino Women.

In 20 years of American control in
the islands, prepared as she was bv
racial tendency and religion, the Fill
pino woman has responded in a re-
markable degree in thought and aspira-
ton to the new influence. In all
classes, the personal diameter has
heightened amazingly. The establish
ment of the public school system with
coeducation the rule from the primary
through the university has had an
awakening effect that increases tire.
mendously each year. There are. of
course, many who still prefer the con-
vent or private school for their dauch-
tiers. but the Illuminating point is,
that in no other eastern country il
coeducation even among the possibih-
ties.
Considered practically as an asset in
the material progress of the archipel-
ago. the Filipino woman is no nepligi-
BILE quantity. In the economic problem
her value does not lie in proximity to
zero, not by any means. The Philio-
pine census of 1908, the city official
census of the islands, states that "the
proportion of women engaged in gain
full occupations in the Philippines is
more than double that of the United
States and three times that of Porto
Rico, and more than three times that
of Cuba" As statistics have habit
of doing, these figures do not tell the
exact truth. The Filipino women are
not such industrious bees as might
be gathered from the above. The fol-
lowing explanation may modify conclu-
sions drawn from the figures. The
economy of the Filipino household may
be compared with the European in the
18th century with the difference: The
European household was self-subsist-
ing, manufacturing largely all needs of
both household and family, but the
women were not counted as wage earn
ers. In the Philippines, because of dis
tribution of raw material, which is
rarely cultivated, and often because
Of some freaks of chance, each little

These products, through the channels
Of trade, are exchanged. Hence the

pations. This division of labor. which
exists in all parts of the country, and

team few weeks ago, and this tim,

greater part of the victors' runs, as
there was only one hit made during the
time they were pushing the five tallies
over. Likewise the visitors tally came
entirely through loose playing.
Lamperti, first man up for the ga
seys," took second when Grey threw
wild to catch him at first, and scored
later when Gilmore played for Pape
at first. In the second Stockwell re
ceived free transportation. Murphy at

for Stockwel at second, and both men
were safe. Hsmel advanced the run

scored, but Murphy was caught far
from the plate on the throw in. Lam
