Mr. Roy and Mrs, Roy show par- ticular interest in the Canadian home. They ga there regularly, al- ways attending the lectupes or mu- sical entertainments which are pro- vided for the students and in syn way encouraging the idea behin the whole movement which is to provide comfortable and agreeable lodgings tor the students who come to Paris and foster international knowledge and understanding by bringing the students of various nations into closer contaet, Just as the League of Nations at Geneva is a meeting place for the represen- tatives of governments so is the "University City" at Paris becom- ing a "league for the young" who will help direct the world of the future on the basis of a solid inter national education which is all the stronger because it is non-political and in po wise weakens love of one's own country. The Minister and the eorrespon- dent were received by the director of the Canadian building, Monsieur Firmin Foz, the €minent French lecturer 'who has several times vis. ited the American continent, The huge drawing room with its fire. places, lounges, its Interesting books and literature proves a snug and attractive spot for Canadian students after the luncheon and dinner hour. In addition te lodgings in pleasant rooms, all of which have been do- nated by representative Canadian families, there are enough showers and baths to pleage the most exacts ing. It was on leaving that the young man from New Zealand came in to greet Minister Roy and to thank through him the people and government of Canada. "I am going home' he said to the Minister. "I have had two years in Paris gtudying literature, But Canada has made it possible for me to live in Paris in pleasant conditions, surrounded by young Canadians who have come here, liks me, to study. I wish, Sir, to thank you and Canada for this." ---- NEWCASTLE ITEMS (Mrs. J. Brown, Correspondent) Newcastle, Feb, 8.--Mr. and Mrs, H. J.

Jourteen nations now have national buildings in the new city within a city. The idea of creating a 'Univers sity City" was originated by Sena tor Honnorat while he was serving as Minister of Public Instruction Among the nations with flourishing and successful homes, besides those of Canada and the United States, are those of Belgium, Argentina, Japan, Armenia and Indo-China, The buldngs of seven other nations are under construction, namely those of Denmark, Sweden; Spain, Greece, Hollond, Cuba and Monaco, The Greek structure will be mod: olled on the lines of the Parthenon exteriorally. It is expected htat all nations of the earth will be there. New buildings will be erected to houge restaurants where all stu dents of whatever nationality ma; eat together, Other buildings will be devoted to physical culture and sports, and there will be lecture halls and concert halls. Already the number of foreign students coming to France for edu. cation in medicine and the arts and sciences generally has greatly in. oreased as the result of the Univer. wy City. he cost to each student is made as low as possible and within the means of all. LITERARY WOMEN OF CHINA NOTED Lecture by Dr. Kiang McGill University, To Press Women Montreal, Feb. 11.----The popular impression that Chinese women have received education only with- in rocent times is a mistaken one; Chinese women have always been educated, especially among the Mandarin and olan classes, Dr. Kang Hang-Hu told members of the Montreal Branch of the Canadian Women's Press Club at a luncheon | in the Mount Royal Hotel on Satur- day. The subject of Dr. Klang's lecture was "Some Literary Women of China," of whom he sald there were many, mentioning a few who lived at different periods and under different dynasties from about 200 B.C. until the present, Fu Hsi-0, the daughter of a col- lege professor, performed notable service for her country by preserv- ing the anclent classics. Possessed of a remarkable memory, she was able to reproduce books of history that had been destroyed by Chu Shih Huang<Ti, who had wished to leave his impress on the country hy doing away with the old and build- Ing anew. She wrote down from | memory some 150,000 words, A century and a half later, Pan Chao, sister of an official historian, after her brother's death, completed the work he had begun, and thus | was co-author of a history of the | dynasty, | The Chin dynasty numbered two famous women, Su Hu-El, who em- ployed her time while her husband was away at war by embroidering 800 Chinese characters in five dif. ferent colored silks on a plece of canvas. In this 400 poems have al- ready been discovered, from four lines to 40 or 60 lines in length. A reproduction of this may be seen in Gest Chinese Research library at McGill said Dr. Kiang. The other celebrated woman of this period was Lady Wel, lady-in-waiting at the court, who is regarded as the in ventor of modgrn script, bp which 4,000 characters may be writien ind an hour, China in the sixth century had a very ambitious woman ruler, who not only ruled the Chinese Empire for 60 years, but had literary as well as military achievements to her credit. Shang Kuan Wan-Er, one of the court ladies, was glven the position of chief examiner of poetry. Towards the end of the Sung dy- nasty, in the ninth century, there lived an ambitious young lady nam- ed Haang Chao Chun, Oficial ox- aminations were open only to men, s0 she disguised herself in mascu- nations, passing in three series, She then became automatically an. offi- cial and was appointed a magistrate by the Emporer. She found her self in a dilemma when the governs or of the province where she was magistrate proposed to marry his daughter to her, and had to confess she was a woman, Four volumes of her works were published. Chiy Chin was described by Dr, Kiang as the foremost woman of the part in the revolution. She was the first woman to publish a magazine and wrote many poems. Her daugh- ter, now at Columbia University, has ublished her mother's poems in our volumes, Wu Chu-ah Ying was described as the freatest calr- grapher since Lady Wei, + Her 'text- books are the standard for pullic schools. ' A Is brief, we suggest that you follow a safc tradition and send her Meyer Both's special Valentine box of assorted choco lates and bon bons, Every pleco will remind her of you; that is, if you're mot there to do your own reminding.

This introduced the problem of a career in association with home making. The lecturer thought women had a right to choose for themselves. In regard to women's attainments, Dr, Kiang thought that a first class literary woman is- still inferior to a first class man in litera- ture, and the same comparison holds for art, science, One reason - for this was that women have only re- cently had a chance to develop + pip ability. The chief drawback, how- ever, was the instinct for wifehood and motherhood, and the conflict he- tween claims of a career and home making, Miss Rosa L.
