JLJut l had heard the call of God for China and I felt that.I must obey. ,. Mv trin acioss the continent to Seattle Washington was very in- teresting and enjoyable, uur party consisted of Dr. and Mrs. R. T. Bryan of N. C, who have been missoionaries in China for many years, Miss' Hannah Fair Sallee of Texas. Mrs. . Bryan's sister, who was also going out as a missionary, Miss Mary Ward, a daughter of' Senator Ward of Newbern, N. C, who was start ing on a tour around the world, and myself, We went by way pf Memphis, Kansas City, and Bill ings Montana to Seattle. Such a trip gives one some conception of the magnitude and natural re- iirr.H of the United State. We passed through the fine farming lands of Kansas and Nebraska, the great grazing district in South Dakota and Montana, and the great fruit growing section in Washington. . The scenery in sroinjr through the Cascades ; was very beautiful although : we mis sed seeing the best of it because we passed through at night.' ' c We arrived in Seattle on Satur dav night. We spent Sunday At the hotel resting. Sunday night Dr. Bryan and I' went to the First Baptist Church to hear Dr. Carter Helm . Jones" preach. t He is a Southern man, having : been born, and .reared in Virginia. . He has a great Church in Seattle and is doing a great work. Monday our biggage, was- transferred to the Steamer and we '.went on Board. Early the next morning we sailed out of port, but we had not gotten out of the Bay when it was discovered that one of tho engines was out of order and we came back In port and. remained for three days. During this de lay I had anoppprtunity to see much of Seattle. Among' the things of interest that I saw was the State University of Washing ton. Tho grounds are among the most bcautif ulln all the country. The Institution is Splendidly equipped and has an enrollment of about 3,000 students. .It was UT?tt'a, contrast to our tr:. " Col- hgss in the South. The necessary repairs on the engine having been made we sailed out of the Harbor- on Fri day October 3rd. The next morn ing we were out. in the Ocean, but not entirely out ' of sight of land. -The Sun ; was shining Ocean was a beautifully. The T 1UU.BU "UVUJ T the rain-bows made by the Sun shining through the spray as the waves dashed themselves to piec es against the. ship. I shall not soon forget that last? look- at my native land a& the ship carried me ;f,rther and farther away. It,was some hills on the Canadian shore, but'it seemed dear to me because it was American soil. ' I . tho ght of home, loved ones, and all that was dear to me in the home land but I rejoiced that the Lorct had made it possible for me to make some little sacrifice for Him .who had done so much for me, ' The entire voyage was very pleasant. Everything seemed to add to our enjoyment. The ship was large with all modern con veniences, the Ocean was smooth for the most part and many of us were spared the unpleasantness of being sea sick. The passengers were very congenial. There were about 15 young men .; on board, being sent out by the Y. M. C. A. of America to Japan and China. Among them was one of my College mates Gene Turner of Wake ' Forest, N. C. There was a number of young Liadies going to the Orient, some as missionaries, others on a tour around th9 world, This number of voune neonle assured ' us of good social time. A. social committee was appointed and al most every night we had some ocial function. . During the , day we read or studied, played games, and.did other things, -The time passed away happily and on the 21st of October, we sailed into the Harbor at Yakohama, Japan. We stopped at , three ports in Japan,' .Yakohama, Kobe, and Mbj'u spending m all about 10 days in the "Little Kingdom." From Yakohama we went up to Tokio the Capitol of the Kingdom Tokio is a city of about 2,000,000 inhabitants, having many mod ern improvements." We visited a number of .places of intertest there temples, parks, Royal palace grounds etc. ; We missed secinir the Emperor only a- few minutes. He returned from a visit to some place in the country thPro. . AH traffic was stooped on the street by which he returned to his Palace. We saw a large number of soldiers. The cavelry were very disappointing. The !'" - v ?;e i'-v 8 "I r-'l.cr shabby looking and the soldiers Aid not seem to know how to ride gracefully. On another day we went out to Kamacura to see the statue of Buddha. It is about 20 feet high and 12 or 15 1 feet wide and is hundreds of years old. There are some temp les near but the pigeon seem to be taking them which Is an indi cation of the attitude of the Japa nese toward their old forms of re ligion. There are many things of in terest to be seen in Japan. 1 wish I could1"" say something of tho strange dress and customs of the people, but time and space forbid. I do", however, want to say something about my impres sions of this wonderful little country. i- One of the first things that im pressed me was the beauty of the country. It was in October when nature was at its best and every tint and hue of color could be seen in the hills and mountain sides. The landscapes were be yond description. L a b o r is plentiful and the whole country is kept almost like a flower gard" en at home. The people have an artistic taste in the arrangement of everything around their homes and on the farm. ' Flower can be seen everywhere. I had al ways thought of post card pic tures of Japanese landscape's ' as being exagerated, but now. I know that there is no exagera tioh whatever. An adequate de scription of " the country cannot be given. To see it as it is one must look upon io with his eyes. Another thing that impressed me about Japan was the spirit of progross that was evident on all sides. This can be seen in their agricultural and manufact uring developments. , I attended an exposition at Yakohama that would have dpne credit to any state or number of states in the United States. The grounds were beautifully arranged and there was a .large -variety of things on display. An education, also, the . Japanese are m the front rank. They are using the most modern methods. I visited a Kindergarten School in Moji where the teacher was using the kinds of methods that are used in such schools in America But. oerhaps. the spirit of pro gress is more evident commercial lv than along any other line be raiisa it is alone' this line that Japan must succeed if she holds her place among the nations of the world. I was susprised to find that she has about as many ships on ' the Pacific as alf the other nations together. It looks now as if Japan would contest the "commerce of that great Ocean Still another thing that impres sed me about Japan was the at titude of the. people ' toward re lieion.1 I visited ' quite a number of temples and I was struck with the absence of idols and the care lessness with which many of the temples were kept. Often . they seem only to be the .'habitation of birds. I talked with some 0 the missionaries therefand found that the people were,, as we had been told in America, hard : to reach. Many of the higher class especially seem nou-religious 1 had a talk with a former rtudent of one of the . leading schools ' in Japan and he said that many 0 the students believed in Christ. The sad thing about this wonder UU Utile ivingaom in wiau wiuu a 1 1 . 1 TT! . -1 I . a.

Next time I shall give you something of ' my impressions of China,' Shanghai, China, April 3, 1911 The State Normal & Industrial College, We desire to call attention to the advertisement of the State Normal and Industrial College - which appears in this . issue. Every year shows a stealthy growth in this Institution devot- ed to the higher education of the women of North Carolina Including the Training School and the Summer Session, tho College last year had a total en rollment of 1233 students. Nine ty of the one hundred counties of the state had representatives in the student body. '! Nine-tenths of all the graduates of this Insti tution have taught or are now teaching in the schools of North Carolina. ; , The dormitories are furnished by the State and board is provid ed at actual cost. Two hundred appointments with free tuition, apportioned among the several counties according to the school population, will be ' awarded to applicants about the middle of July.- Students who wish to at tend this nstitutiort next year ; should make application as early as possible, as . the capacity of . the dormitories is limited.
