CHINESE SECOME
SOCIAL PIONEERS
Men and Women Form Good Fel
lowship Club Together Under
Y. W. C. A. Leadership.
The Good Fellowship Club has made
Its appearance In soviet)' In Hangcliow,
China.
It began with* the desire of a pro
gressive young Chinese il.wtor te give
hie compatriots, especially the Chris
tians, some healthful form of social In
tercourse.
Channels for a good, clean, social
life among Chinese people are very
limited. Until recently becoming a
Christian often meant cutting oneself
eff from one's friends and relative*,
also from feast days and festivals.
As for Joint turning* of men and wom
« —wall, such a thing was never heard
e f la decent society.
The young doctor’s plau of having
a club where men and their wives
might coma together to enjoy a good
time with each other was discouraged
and sniffed a t However, a fe# people
agreed to be pioneers In the Cause of
aortal intercourse, and Y. W. CL Al sec
retaries agreed to help make the club
a success
At first the meetings of the club
were laughed*at by outsiders and the
whole affair considered a Joke. How
ever, the members kept oa meeting,
•rat at/one house and then at another.
B oob the men got over the feeling of
strangeness at starting out with their
wives oa Tuesday evening for a
friend’s home. The women began to
••Joy the ontlng and to take pert la
the discussions—an Intelligent part,
too—much to the surprise of their hus
bands.
The membership grew. The club’s
fame began to spread. A t drat the dte-
resslons of the club were conducted In
English. Soon It became necessary
for them te be carried on in Chinese
ee that more of the women coaMI un
derstand and take part. Many of the
scoffers began to apply tor admission.
The members began Indulging hi much
friendly chaffing and occasionally f<5rC
got their, dignity to play Jokes op one
another. Finally It became so large
that It had to be divided into two sec
tions. which met separately three
Tuesday evenings In the month and oa
the fourth Tuesday met together for a
Joint session, with a special program.
— Studenu just returned from Ameri
can and German colleges, an old Bud
dhist scholar who Is^partirulariy Inter
anted in the discussion on Buddhism
and Christianity, merchants, railroad
sad government officials compose the
man’s side of the room. The women
are still a bit shy about talking In
freot o f so many people, but many e f
them show signs of great executive
ability and power of leadership. They
are ell well poised, deer thinking Indi
viduals. who will have a great influ
ence on China's future. They discuss
among themselves group meetings In
their various churches, -the lack of
amusements for Chinese wiginen, social
service work, subscription lists for the
orphanage, cake making, types of
stoves, baby diets, the latest engage
ment and other topics such as one
would hear discussed by a group of
women gathered together any place la
America.
The social part o f the evening is giv
es over to games, which at first
astound the sober Chinese gentlemen,
but which they take up with great zest
after the first evening.
And their
wives enjoy It Just as grently.
Real American picnics are the latest
thing which the ciuh has tried, and
they are a great success. A Christmas
play Is being planned now.

ENGLISH IS COMMON TONGtJE.
Chinese Girls Learn It to Talk to One
Another.
Chin*-«« women students in the Tung
Fa College. Peking, China, are obliged
to learn English In order to talk with
one another because of the different
dialects used by the student body.
Girls from the extreme we«fem
province« of China, who attend the
school, must remain In Peking during
all of the eight years required for
their high school and college train
ing. because to return each summer
would require six weeks for the trip
one way and would cost more than a
trip to America and return.
Girls from each of the western
provinces speak a different language
■ad they cannot understand., one an.
other any more than they can the girls
from northern, southern, eastern or
central provinces. Hence, they have
adopted English as a common tongue.
