JAPANESE SOLDIERS
 FARE BETTER THAN
 CHINESE IN FIGHT ING
OBSERVERS THINK CHINESE WILL WITHDRAW FROM
 CHIN CHOW

TOKYO, Dec. B. (P)-The Jap anese army offensive continued Tuesday against all the Chinese forces in Manchuria with a result that the Chinese "irregulars" were further scattered
 Japanese casualties are said to number 9 score but the Chinese fared less well and their casualties run into the hundreds.
 General Honjo, of the Japanese, has said that the Japanese offen- sive will be continued until all the Chinese are out of Manchuria.
 Neutral observers Tuesday pre- dicted that it was their belief that the 25,00O Chinese at Chin Chow would probably withdraw as 1t was almost certain that they could not withstand a forthcoming Japanese attack.
 From Tientsin comes word that a Japanese armed train attacked a Chinese armored train at a place between Yinkow and another small station, and that fighting contin- ued, with Japanese calvalry reg iment attacking the Chinese train from the rear.

PROMINENT LADY IF PH|LADELPH
 ARRIVES SEWARD
WILL SPEND CHRISTMAS DAY
 WITH NELLIE NEAL AT

Mrs. E. M. Riddle, wife of one of Philadelphia's leading attorneys whose family name is linked with the pioneers of Pennsylvania, lit terally stepped from her state room aboard the Admiral Evans into the heart of Alaska.
 Mrs. Riddle is enroute to the Porcupine River country, where she will write a book which, judged from her expressed sentiments might be titled "The Realities of Life"
 It is in Alaska Mrs. Riddle ex- poets to find material in support of her perspective.
 Mrs. Biddle's induction into the big Alaskan family came via Mrs. Mamie Senft, who hooked up Manny's dogs to his sled and gave Mrs. Riddle her first dogSled ride and thereby supplied material for the observation by Mrs. Riddle upon the happy, purposeful, free and natural lives of Alaska's wom- en.
 Mrs. Riddle does not come seek ing grotesque or heroic charac- ters. She comes to gain a perspec- tive in comparison with that of those of her own sex condemned to the shackles of too inane and purposeleSs life amidst the ner- vous tension of modern civiliza . tion.
 Still in her twenties, the mother of two charming children, Mrs. Riddle is the kind of woman who would readily be adopted into the big Alaska family. Large brown eyes, with just a touch of Wistful- ness, set in harmony with we'll modelled features crowned wi t h dark brown hair, with the added charm of lack of affection, one naturally gives her a setting of a gracious hostess commanding the salon of fashionable society, yet cannot escape the observation that she is a throw-back to that long line of ancestry who, like Alaskans, conquered the Keystone State with axe and gun.
 This is revealed in her ready adaptability from social -emi- hence to the natural unaffected life of the frontier. To this she does not demur.
 Just before I left home a mem Der of my family begged me not to come" said Mrs. Biddle-"they were sure I would die away up here. I shall write immediately and tell them that I have just be- gun to live.
 When you tell me there has not been a bank failure, no business crashes, no hunger 1t seems like dream. When I meet the natural self reliant women, so free, so hap py, so purposeful, I begin to com pute values in other terms than gold. Money is not all happiness. You have treasures here beyond computation"
 "The reason for selecting Alaska for my work" continued Mrs. Bid- dle, twas because I wished to es- cape contact with the high-tension world as we cloistered women of the great cities see and feel it. One has the opportunity for gradual emergence from what may be com pared to bedlam, through the re- current shadings to the fringe of
