Where the OIdest Living Mother
RnIns the Homo
By Temple Manning

Where the OIdest Living Mother
Rules the Home.
Much has been written about tho
unhappy situation OF women in
China. The fact that girl babies
particularly in other years-have
been drowned or disposed OF in other
ways. because girls are said not TO
be welcome in China, has been told
90 often that perhaps the impress
'don has been given the world that
women have a very hard time Of IL
Indeed I'm China. Furthermore. the
stories OF the binding OF the feet Of
women-now happily a thing OF the
Dast-have added TO the belief that
20 be a woman in China is a pitiful
fate. And yet. Chinese OF fine quail
ity declare that in no other country
are women so revered or so loved.
Perhaps the reason for the belief
that women in China are not alto
gether happy has been caused by the
undue emphasis placed upon eXcep-
ticnal cases Furthermore. It may
be due TO the fact that the better
class OF Chinese keep their homes
as separate from the workaday
world as possible. scarcely ever in
viting a foreigner TO meet their
families
A glimpse into a Chinese house
dispels many a wrong impression
and gives at least one interesting
view Of the status OF women in the
good average Chinese home.
In many a Chinese home. the
daughter-to-be is brought into the
home OF the man she is 10 marry

tom, the daughter-in-law is brought
20 her new home only when she is q
/ bride. But no matter when the girl
comes to the home IN which she is

adopts toward her mother-in-law the

that the bride pays her reverence.
! For in the Chinese home the oldest
mother is the ruler OF the house,
and every woman in that home obeys
( her without delay or thought or
! question.
The event which makes a Chinese
woman secure in the love Of her
/ husband and honorable" in the eyes
Of the other women of her family,
IS becoming the mother of a man
child. 1t lifts her high in the So
cial scale OF the family-far above
the childless woman or even the
mother of a girl-and thereafter she
is herself an ancestor, which means
everything is that land Of ancestor
worship.
