NORTHERN CHINA
HA[TS INVADERS
Five Foreign Nations to Insist on
Punishments for Marking
0utrages.

Shanghai-The Cantonese north
ward advance toward Tientsin and
Picking has met with an unexpected
reverse. Reorganized northern forces
under General Sun Chuan-Fang, whose
army crumpled under the Cantonese
advance on Shanghai in February, are
reported to have repulsed the Canton
csc on two fronts along the Tientsin
Pukow railway and on the Grand
canal, to the east.
The Cantonese on the railway, dis
patches say, were forced back to-
ward Fengyang, northwest of Nan
king and rs miles southeast of Peng-
pu, which they occupied only week
ago.
Another Cantonese reverse is re-
ported OIL the north bank of the
Yangtse, opposite Kiangyin. This
may open the way for flank attack
by the northerners, threatening Pu-
kow, across from Marking, in the
rear of the Cantonese column operat
ing up the Tientsin-Pukow line.

School Girls Dress

For years and years English school
girls have worn uniforms" consist
ing of dark blue or green wool
dresses and old-fashioned hard
straw hats with brims and stream
crs." Needless to say, such hats
will no longer perch on short pates,
and the girls have rebelled, demand
ing costumes more atune with the
times. Reluctantly one school has
consented to summer wash frocks in
summer colors of blue, rose orchid,
green and beige. BUTT took a long
and stormy session around a big
conference table! American school
officials who moan that they know
girls dress too surnptuously for
school wear, but they can do moth
ing as long as the parents permit
it, might do well to take pointers
from England!
