'BRUSIE DRIVING AS
SAKURA Wins RACE
Veteran ReinSInan Given Ovation
at Sage Park Track

Sage Park, Windsor, Conn, July 6.
Harry Brusie, grizzled veteran of
many hard-fought light harness duels,
drove his first Bay State Circuit win
ner of the season here yesterday af-
ternoon when he plotted Sakura, the
former Grand Circuit racer, to bril-
liant victory in the PIP trot, the fea-
ture race on the opening days pro-
gram here. The crowd of nearly -
600 thupdered out an ovation to the
gray-haired driver after each of his
winning heats, especially the first,
which was trotted in 2.10 Ia to
equal the track trotting record held
by Mile Irwin.
Day of Fine Races.
. 1t was a day of fine races with ex-
cellent weather conditions to race
under. The track was remarkably
fast after the rain of the preceding
two days and three heats in better
than 2:10 were turned in. Close I'M
ishes were seen in every race with the
exception of the 2:20 pace which was
won by Rex Mckinney in rather easy
fashion, the headliner of the Oneonta
Stables turning the second mile in
2:09 Ia and finishing eased up.
Commodore Wilson, smooth 60
ing young trotter, handed out a sur
prise in the two year old trot by
$4,000 purse from Vivian Sunshine,
the favorite. The Sunshine stable
trotter walked away with the first
heat, Commodore Wilson going into a
break at the first turn and barely get
ting inside the flag. Rodney stayed
behind with Commodore Wilson in
the second heat until the stretch was
reached where he started a drive to
win by head. The son of Com
m odore Bingen romped home in the
final heat with Don Setter a poor
second. w.
MiXup in 2:15 Pace.
Earl Pitman drove Don McGregor
to a nice win in the 2:16 pace, the
final race of the program, the son of
Alex McGregor pacing in 2:0S Ia,
the fastest heat of the day to win the
first heat, and in 2:08a4 to take the
third. He won the fourth with plenty
to spare. An accident marked the
second heat of this race but luckily
no one was badly hurt Billy Elem
ing, who suffered a shaking up, was
the only casualty The mixup took
place as the horses rounded the first
turn in the second heat. Pitman was
out in front with Don McGregor when
Peter Florentine stepped through his
sulky wheel. The two horses stopped
and three more piled into them but
no one was thrown. All were dis
tanced but were placed. Sparkle won
the heat and thereby earned second
Pitman was fined $50 for coming
down ahead of Lillian L. Chatham,
the pole horse, in the first heat of
this race. Fred Hyde kicked on the
score and for alleged use of abusive
language was called into the stand.
Decision in his case was reserved.

IFE in Turkey is chiefly interesting
to the average American for two

IEE in Turkey is chiefly interesting
to the average American for two
reasons-because of the perpetual
persecution and the massacre of the Chris
tan Armenians, and because of that
strange and mysterious feature of Turkish
life, the harem.
There is nothing to indicate that the
prosecutions of the Armenians will be
likely to stop until the last Armenian has
been killed. But there is at present
vigorous movement sweeping Turkey
which threatens to end the most pictur-
esque of all Moslem institutions, the
harem.
For many centuries, Turkish law, Gus
tom and religion have been based upon
the supreme rights of the man and the
virtual slavery of the woman. Women
were bought and sold, taken over as
wives and kicked out into the street as
the varying whims seized their husbands
and masters. Women were held prisoners
in their homes their faces covered with
wells and their souls and bodies belonged
to their husbands.
But when the war upset the balance of
things in Europe and the old Sultan and
the old Mohammedan church officials
were replaced by new set of men, the
opportunity came at last for women to
make a struggle for emancipation from
their degraded slavery.
The strongest man in the new Turkish
Government is Mustapha kemal Pasha, and
it happens that he married recently d
young woman who had taken a course in
the American College in Constantinople
-Fatideh, daughter of former member
of the New York Cotton Exchange.
Renal himself had travelled widely and
he encouraged his wife to throw off her
veil, put on European clothes, and he
stood by her in spreading the propagan
of the new Feminist movement to eman-
cipate Turkish women, to forbid plural
marriages, and to put an end to the harpm
On the occasion Of d military review of
the Young Turkish Nationalist troops
near Smyrna recently, Nine kemal
shocked the conservative natives by step
ping from the train without the traditional
veil and wearing riding breeches and mil
tary riding boots, with spurs ana Jauhty

or ancient, thus been permitted 10 gaze
openly on the fair countenance Of another
MosIem's wife-and in such garb! She
and her husband both mounted horses, and
as the dashing and distinguished couple
rode majestically along the line of troops
the cheers that succeeded the first aston
ishment proved conclusively that no
matter how shocked the Turks may have

and she usually has her way
In ancient times the number of wives
or concubines that man might possess
was limited only by his financial means.
Much misrepresentation, due largely to
ignorance and a strong prejudice against
the whole system, always has existed with
regard to the harem system il. Turkey. 1t
has always been popular notion, for
example, that every Turk was a polyga-
mist, and that scores and even hundreds
of wives for the very wealthy men were
quite a common thing. AS a matter of
fact, the Koran permits a man to have
matter of etiquette, has been allowed
seven. 1t is said, however, that the harem
of Abdul Hamid consisted of 200 wives,
all. Of slave origin. Mehmed VI. had
n ere $50 wives.
These remarkable harems formed elab-
orately organized communities with
complete system of disciplinary and adj
ministrative officers, and strict distinction
of the harem women's status. The Sui
tan's mother, the "Sultana Valide," was
the real ruler of this harem, exercising
her authority through "kyahya khatun,''
or female superintendent. There was
also large retinue of "kalfas," or suhor-
dinate officials, headed by the ''hasnadar
ousta," OF lady of the treasury, and rang
ing down to the mistress of the sherbets'
and "chief coffee server"
The mother of the heir apparent, called
"Bash kadin Effendi" (Her Excellency,
the Chief Lady,, ranked next in import
ance to the suitana vafide, and under her
were the other three chief wives, or "Ka-
din Effendis," followed by the "Hanum
Etfendis," or women who had borne the

Part of the other 20 per cent of the
women, he said in big cities, like Con-
stantinople, which the Europeans see, are
restricted, hence the false European no.
ton that the Turkish woman of to-day is
just as much a slave as she ever was.
But the fight of Kemal and his at
tractive modern bride for the emancipa-
ton Of Turkish women is far from fin
ished In fact, Renal realizes he has a
stiff struggle on his hands, and that vic
tory will be harder Of achievement than
driving the Greeks out of Anatolia or
boarding the statesmen of Europe at
Lausanne.
But the fight is going on, and already
many changes from score of years ago
are noticeable in Constantnople and other
Turkish cities. A Turkish woman may
now be seen On the streets with her hus
band. Formerly this was considered
degrading thing. A wife might go out,
if yelled, alone, or in the company of
other mcn--but with her husband! That
was an objectionable offense against Mo-
hammedan laws and customs.
The shroud-like veil or fyash-mak,"
too, to-day is fast passing into the realm
of discarded relics. No longer need a
beautiful Turkish woman conceal her face

"charchaf," a sort Of lacy or gauzy shawl
bound tightly about the head, concealing
the hair, but leaving the face exposed to
the admiring gaze of both Moslem and
Christian alike.
Motion pictures also have done much to
help emancipate Turkish women. AS re-

patrons of this twentieth century develop
ment that has been introduced in Turkey
Yet, here the Turkish feminists will find
fertile field Of endeavor, for the movie
is to-day the only public place of amuse-
ment that Turkish women are permitted
to attend. Theatres, restaurants and
dance halls are still taboo so far as the
Moslem woman is concerned, and any
mother, wife or daughter of a Moslem
found in any of these places renders her
self liable to immediate arrest. And if
she should be found wearing an ordinary
hat, instead of the "charchaf," the Turkish
woman commits an even graver offense,
while if seen in the company of Christ
ian or Christians, she is "ruined" in the
Mosem mind for the rest of her days.
So Kemal and his wife still have lot of
work ahead of them.

Kemalist party behind him. He is proud
of the fact that he is the first Turkish
feminist among the male element, and he
gives as his reason his belief that all the
failures and msfortunes Of his country
and his people in the past have been due
to the custom of keeping the Turkish
women in seclusion, and that the nations
salvation depends on complete social and
political equalization of the sexes.
Mustapha Kemal has some decidedly
fixed ideas on why women should be eman
cipated in Turkey, just as they have been
TO greater or lesser degree in Christian
countries. Perhaps the most remarkable
of these reasons is his assertion that
neither the seclusion of women nor the
veil are racially or religiously Turkish,
but an inheritance from the outside!
Specifically, he mentions that this custom
was brought into Turkey from Persia CEN
turtles on centuries ago.
Eighty per cent of the Turkish
women" he asserts, "now enjoy the
same rights as men. This is particularly
true of peasant women. These women,
who engage in every phase Of mems work,
cultivation, of the felds~araising of live
stock and heavy timber lacking. after the
days work is done, participate in the same

There is little doubt, however, that had

not have caused greater commotion than

ish life-is rather uncenl-
mon to-day in Turkey.
There are several reasons
for this, one of the prin-
cipal ones being the con-
tinually increasing cost
of living, which has
greatly limited the num-
Der of Turks of means
who can afford to sup
port more than one
household.
Another reason is the
facility with which di-
vorce is obtainable in
Turkey - particularly
for the husband. All he
has to do, if he wishes
to get rid of his wife
and the reason does not
matter-is to write her
a little note, and she
must leave his house inn
mediately. This system
has been so abused that
almost every other wo-
man one meets in Con-
stantinople is a divorce,
whose marriage or mar
riages may have lasted
only a few weeks.
These changes in the
social life of Turkey,
brought about by econ
omic conditions as a re-
suit of the World War,
have caused a virtual
disappearance of the
harem, for, as has been
said, with the exception
of a few imperial princes
there are hardly any
Turks left with wealth
enough to keep a harem.
