"Second generation missionaries in China realise the anuauon ana are urging their churches to confine their efforts to the medical and educa tional fields where they have a real ....IhnMnn ts make." Dr. Zen attacked the attempt of traditional missionaries to force upon the Chinese standards of western Puritanism which have been repudi ated over large parts of Europe and America. "rh neoDle are losing their In fluence at home." she said. "Thsy cannot hope to succeed In China. We are most grateful for the medical and welfare activities of the missions in China, and hope that these efforts will not be abandoned. But I have no hope that China will ever be come a Christian nation in the strict missionary Interpretation."

"We are a philosophical people rather than a religious one," she said. Women in China, said Dr. Zen. have opportunltes unequalled In any part of the world. There are no re strictions on their entry Into busi ness, professional or political life such as have developed recently In western nationa due to unemploy ment.

I oure always saying Chesterfields taste better wish you'd tell me why Well, I've worked in tobacco; I've manu factured cigarettes . . . and I'll tell you why Chesterfields taste better. For a cigarette to have a good taste, it must have first the right kind of Domestic tobacco. This means ripe, mellow, sweet ' tobacco, filled with Southern sunshine. Then, blended and cross-blended with this tobacco there must be the right quantity of the right kinds of aromatic Turkish to bacco . . . tobacco that has a pleasing flavor and aroma. Aroma, as you know, adds to the taste. It's just like the pleasing aroma from certain foods. It's appetizing. It makes the food taste better. It makes the cigarette taste better. Then again, for a cigarette to have a good taste, it must be made right. Tho size, the cigarette paper, everything about it must be right.
