The cafes and motion picture houses are well attouded. and the then ter* are crowded. Recently there was a big first night in the Petit Champs, the occasioii being the performance o f a French comedy. The actors were Turks, but the actresses were all \r menlans, as Turkish women are not - yet permitted to appear on the stage, but the general opinion Is expressed by all thinking Turks that l>efore long their women will make their first np- pearance as actresses. The emancipation o f women in Tur key has made remarkable progress since the beginning o f the war. In tb i best society In Constantinople the wo men no lo lger wear their veils when receiving their guests. Though veils continue to be worn by the Turkish women In tho street, still the fashion has made them so flimsy and transpar ent that they might just as well be dis pensed with. Consequently all the fascination and mystery that heretofore has surround ed the harem has suddenly disappeared. There is no longer any such thing, and In Us place there is simply tbe usual family life. The Turkish woman is as much a housewife as her European sis ter. and in this w ar her resources have been taxed to tbe utmost. Despite the fact that the rich agricultural country of Anatolia Is not far distant, the prices of all uecessaries o f life have Increased enormously. Turkey has awakened from Us long lethargy, and the war has brought a new life in the empire. Progress is now the keynote, and tbe indications are that within a few years Constanti nople w ill be one o f tbe most advanced cities in the world. W OMEN NOT R E A L A N G LER S .
