Li Sum Line, who is the editor of the Chinese Mail of Hong Kong, was In New York last week on his way around the world. When interviewed he wore a purple broadcloth, satin morn ing gown, though the cuffs of the white man showed below the edge ot its sleeves: and though he wore black satin shoes and his hair was in a long braid down his back, he smoked the cigarette of the white man and spoke the tongue of the Anglo-Saxon with out break or accent He discussed at length the conditions In - China and the relations between the empire aad the United States, toward which, he said his people are very friendly. Ho, spoke in favor of, a commercial a'll- ance Between ine two nations. Li Sum Ling says, "there are four women's daily papers In Canton, five or six in Shanghl, and the same pro portionally In every large city In China. These papers are all run by Chinese women and women do all the work on them. They give sum mary ot all the news of the world of interest to women, and you wiu find the educated Chinese women I formed on' what is going on all over the world. They publish many : transla tions of articles of interest to women in foreign languages. China is full uf periodicals for women and monthly publications just as it Is here. "The new Bystem ol education intro duced into China includes gtrL. Muni cipalities everywhere have opened girls' schools, and one sees the girls going to school in crowds every morn ing . As yet it Is only the children of the well-to-do who are educated, but we hope to extend it is fast as possible to all children of the'empire. Then in the large clues there are schools for higher education for girls not colleges, but corresponding per haps to your High Schools. . There they study Chinese classics, foreign languages and general educational branches. There are somewhere be tween 10 and 20 such schools In Can ton. The pupils are usually daughters of rich men. There Is no dormitory system. They board In families when they do not live at home. In Hong Kong the Bellllos school has existed for 20 years. " It is for Chinese and foreign women. It has mors than -a thousand pupils. - , All this is not new, you must under stand," said the visitor, "there was' a period in Chinese history when the women were very highly educated and occupied a high social postlon. Fe male education fell Into ne&'ect, and now It Is being-resumed, that's alL It la necessary tor the women to be educated If a country, is to advance. Modern Chinamen appreciate that and are acting on it A country in which one half of the people Is left uneducated cannot compete with one In which all are educated. - We under stand that NO matter how educated the father is,-the children lose some thing if the mother is not educated. All the graduates of our girls' schools marry at from about 16 to 19. We have not the old girl In. ourjMuntry," said Li 8um Ling, simply. - 7 Shingles For Sale. titn(I.Hli.(ieNM- 'JV '24 by 6 Cypress, 23.00, 24 by I $2.60. MACHINERY EXCHANGE 7 -.. pheneNe. 89.
