AniO Proves Model
Japanese Village

In striking contrast TO the general
agricultural depression in Japan is the
situation found in the village of Anjo.
In the center of the main island. Here
is a village of 5000 houses. most of
which shelter farmers, which boasts
that it has not been mixed up in any
farmer Landlord dispute. Its average
income per family is three times that
of an ordinary farmer. What used to
be eight small villages were grouped to
form the present village of Anjo and
those living there organized themselves
into a cooperative group. The intro
duction of a modern irrigation system
helped the scheme to prosper, so that
in the 20 years of its existence progress
has been rapid. Members of the COM
munity do not poll all their resources.
but no one person has more than SO
acres under cultivation (there are 5000
acres in all worked by the villagerS)
and all join in marketing the goods.
About 60 per cent of the food grown
is sold in Nagoya and the rest is sent
to Toxic. $50 miles distant. A special
store in Toxic, which has Is employees,
does nothing but sell the produce Of the
model village. Each family has about
100 cvhickenS and an average savings
account of $3.50, large sum for men,

Working Women Win
Husbands in Germany

Gentlemen prefer working women, at
least in Germany. The national bureau
of statistics has published the happy
tidings that 80 per cent of all Berlin
brides are chosen from the ranks of
those who make their own living. OF
46,030 women married in Berlin in 1928,
36,499 followed some profession. The
figures show that men no longer prefer
traditional Stay-at-homes. On the con-
trary, 1t is apparent that the comrade-
ship arising from mutual work and in
tereStS often leads to marriage, and the
prospects for typists secret arieS, book

mates seem very bright. Domestic serv-
ants are also in demand. for many a

School of Oriental
Culture Is Planned

A Summer school of Oriental Gull
ture is being planned by Kajyu Naka-
mura, former member of the Japa-
nese Diet, for the benefit of American
university students who are interested
in Japan. but have never visited it. Ac-
cording to his project, the school will
open July Is and will continue for four
weeks. Negotiations are now on to Sc
cure suitable meeting place. Profess
sors from leading universities in this
country will lecture on Japanese his
tory, political science, the history of
fine arts in Japan, Oriental philosophy
as it affects Japanese life and, finally,
the various phases of modern japanese
life. The work of the school will be
divided into two terms of two weeks
each and the tuition charges will be SIS
for one term or $25 for two. Lectures
will be held five days during the week,
and the week-ends will be devoted to
trips to nearby places of historical in
terest. Before and after the school
term the students will be given the OPP
portunity to visit the more distant parts
of the empire. Mr.. Nakamura hopes to
have 300 students for his school. Last
year he took 80 Japanese students on
an educational tour in the United
States. during which time he conceived
the idea of attracting American STU
dents here.

not excluding the United States and the
Latin American lands.
The organization with these varied

1920, because the charitable bodies look
ing after the return of prisoners of war
to their homes proved inadequate to
handle a task which no one quite real
lied would prove so vast and compli-
Gated.
The charity groups had done their
best, but in April, 1920 the council of
the League was confronted by the hard
fact that half million prisoners of war
or informed soldiers were still vainly
waiting-a majority Of them in condi-
tions of great misery and some men
aced with death from cold and hunger
