:, A striking illustration Of the genr
eral emancipation Of Turkish wom-
en- brought about by the war is af-
forded by the designation Of zeliha
Hanoum as minister of education
in the cabinet of Mustapha Renal.
Mrs. Hanoum is the wife OF DR..
Adam Bey. formerly president Of
tine Turkish Red Crescent and until
recently minister Of health. She is
IS years old, the mother Of three
children, a devout Mohammedan
and has attained fame as the au-
thor Of several strongly Pan-1slam-
ic novels.
Mrs. Hanoum, who is called the
most prominent woman in Turkey
today, is, perhaps, the most cele-
6rated pioneer in the movement for
higher education of Turkish wom-
en-. She was the first Turkish girl
to graduate from an American col
lege in Turkey, despite the persis-
tent opposition of the former sui
tan, who forced her to discontinue
her studies many times. Later she
vas an instructor of French in the
Turkish school at Stamboul.
Although educated in a school
where the teachers we're all Chris
tians, she retained her Mohamme-
dan faith but removed the black
veil from her face, as many other
Turkish women have done. She is
a firm believer in the superior Gull
tural value of Mohamet's teachings
Because Of her unusual power as
an orator, she has been a popular
speaker in behalf Of political move
ments and against the peace treaty
She is quoted as saying, I'VE shall
never consent to be separated from
Thrace and Smyrna with their his
torical monuments. The cross shall
never be raised over our mosques. y
The photograph shows her CIV
ing one of her impassioned
tspeeches. ;

the Atlantic division department
OF nursing during the summer OF
1913 and became superintendent OF
nurses at the University hospital,
Boulder, Colo, in September OF
1918. Miss Russell received her
training in the New York Hospital
Training School for Nurses.
The five other women who have
received the medal in the past six
years are Miss Alma e. Forester
