Friends of Miss Josephine A.
Brown, former popular Y. W. c. y.
secretary of Imperial county will
doubtless be much interested in
hearing something of the many
unique experiences of Miss Brown,
who sailed for China in January,
where she is connected with the y.
W. c. A. for the next five years. {.
Miss Agnes Ferris of this city re-
Gently received a letter from Miss
Brown telling most interestingly of
her life in China.
Struggling with the intricacies of
the Chinese language which she Is
studying at a school irr-P eking, Miss
Brown already reports that she is
beginning to understand phrases in
conversation as she passes through
the quaint streets of the city.
AT Easter time Miss Brown and Il
party of friends journeyed up the
mountain of Tai Shan, Shantung, up
which they were carried in chairs
by native men who make their liv-
ing in this way. Mohainmedap, Bud
dist and Confuci6n temples are on
this mountain which are reached by
a stone stairway which is no one
knows how old. On the very top is
the altar where Confucius worship
ped in 600 B. C. The day after
Easter the party, visited Confueius
tomb.
Flowers in Bloom
At the Y. W, C. A. camp near
Pekug where Miss Brown spent
some DAYS. fruit trees, lilacs and
wistaria were in riot of beautiful
bloom. Another of the exotic touch
rs in the letter is that which tells
of the pretty custom of tying tiny
bamboo whistles to the tails of the
pigeons so that when they fly It
makes delicate music.
That the girls, of China are at last
coming into their own is shown by
a paragraph which describes an an
nual field meet when over 500 girls
took part az their field just inside
the old Imperial City wall. The nav
al college band furnished music,
white the girls marched onto the
field with swinging stride present
ing a contrast 10 tife generation OF
bound feet.
Miss Brown plans to ,-sit the
Great Wall soon. She VIII study un-
til August - and in September
plans a camping, hiking trip into
Korea. She will probably assist at
a girls camp during a portion OF
the summer.
Miss Brown states in her letter
that she regrets that she has not
had more opportunity to write her
Imperial Valley friends. but her
long hours of study aud other work
have prevented. The Press there
fore takes the liberty of suggesting

Gus romance is turned into a hum

which each party barely tolerates
the other? l think it is because the
husband reaches a stage where he
thinks because no one is about but
his wife that he can sit around half

no interest in the job of interesting
