conference, are to take an active part
In promoting this health program for
ivomen which will be the share of the
J. W. CL A. In the big health movement
In Chln&
The funds for establishing these
health centers, for demonstrations of
hew to care for babies, for health
lectures for the women, for babies' dispensaries
and for a general educational
campaign, will be raised bj the
American I. W. C. A. aa part of It*
m program of world service for women
and girls In 1920.
g Dr. Ida Kabn, In a recent appeal to
modern Chinese women said, "Let oar
women of education In Peking and
slsewhere gather themselves together
to work for the schools, Red Cross and
I. W. C. A., and everything else which
bespeaks the betterment of the country,
Instead of staying at home to play
poker and 'sparrow,' and going out to
attend endless dinners, tea parties and
dances.
"Let us rally our forces and help the
ship of state to move safely. One perron
cannot accomplish much, but one
or two hundred millions of women can
work wonders. Let us go back to a
more Spartan-like simplicity of living
and let us build up social service until
ivery city In China Is sanitary, every
section of the town has its proper
ichools, and every child, whether boy
or girl, Is sent to such schools. True
social service brings democracy In Its
train, and we who are citizens of a
new republic can help to make It truly
I great by preaching ana living aemoc
[racy all tlie time. Why not learn to
do our household duties, deeming it
I effeminate to be waited upon by maids
I and slave girls aM the time?
H "The status of womeu In China,
I while leaving much to be desired, still
I s quite hopeful when we consider
that she Is Just emerging Into the sles
terhood of the nations. Our men can
depend upon us to bear the burdens of
the day, for nowhere Is there a more
industrious, diligent and persevering
womanhood than In China."
Dr. Kahn is lecturing In this country
on the needs of her fellow country
women, In the Interests of the Y. W.
C. A. Educational Campaign which
plahs to acquaint people with all
phases of Y. W. C. A. work In the
CJnlted States, South America, China,
Japan, India and Europe. This educa- j
Clonal campaign will be followed by
an active effort to raise the $3,000,000
needed for service for women throughout
the world.

"Ovsr the Top."
Much has been said about the honesty
and skill of the Chinese business
man. The world has neglected to mention
the financial ability of Chinese
women. They proved this ability In
the last financial campaign of the T.
W. C. A. In Tientsin.
Ordinarily three weeks are allowed
In which to raise the budget by subscription
after the finance committee
has decided upon the sum necessary
to carry on the work of the coming
year. The Tientsin campaign was carried
on entirely by Chinese women and
broke all records by going over the
top In ten days with a large surplus
aver the budget.
I WOMEN EXCEED MEN
IN JAPANESE FACTORIES
i ?
; 850,000 Japanese Women Work
at Average Daily Wage of Ten
to Twenty Cents for a
i
Twelve Hour Day.

There are more woman in industry i
In .Japan than there are men, accord- !
to 21 siiiHMnent rtMiMitly made by the j
Wnr Work Council of the Young Wo|
mon's Christian Assooiulion.
Tito world wnr lias brought 8o0,000
' womon and girls into the daily grind
| of industry aei-nrdng to this statetuont;
80,<XX) of tliem little girls under
I fifteeu years of age who work twelve
hours at a wage of ten to twenty cents
a day, that the world may have silk
dneeses and munitions.
In Tokyo alone, a city of two and
one-half million people, there are 100,000
women employed In sixty-two Industries
and businesses varying from
work as telephone operators, clerks,
stenographers and bookkeeper* to
work In silk and other sorta of factories
and domestic work.
Each year thousands of these women
go back to their homes In the
country, broken In health and victims
of tuberculosis because of the poor
conditions under which they work and
live. They are housed in dormitories
I in th* fartni-r pomnound. These dorml
tories are frequently unsanitary. The
(Iris work long hours, have no recreation
and on finishing their long day
go immediately to bed, oftentimes a
bed which a girl who works at night
has been sleeping In all day.
As part of Its world service for women,
the Young Women's Christian
Association plans to build dormitories
In manufacturing towns where girls
may live cheaply under healthful
physical and social conditions, to send
out secretaries who can introduce recreation
Into the factory compound and
direct games and social life.
This is done with the co-eperatlon
of the factories' managers and proprietors.
One of the most Influential
of these Is Mrs. Suzuki, the most
prominent woman manufacturer In
Japan, who Is owner and manager of a
firm which erported $11,000,000 worth
of bean oil to Amerl"- t year.
Recently Mrs. Suzuk, decided to
employ one thousand women In her
offices She could not find enough
well trulned ones so she established
a permanent school where Japanese
girls may be trained to enter the business
world. The greatest danger
ahead of Japan, she says, Is In its

4 Therefore, if Japan and Araeri- 4
4 ca are to have a real, lasting 4

-f- The Y. W. C. A. Is one of the + |
f best mediums for bringing aho*it 4*

4? sary that Japanese women learn 4*
