JAPANESE WOMEN THRO OFF BONDS Asserting Independence, Return Missioner Tells Gonvention The women of Japan {oday ave facing the same problems that women 211 over the world have faced at some time or other, according to Mrs. Les- ter MacLean, dean of women at the Hartford Theological seminary, and a | {ormer missionary to Japan, at the «emié-annual meeting of the Hartford county branch of the Woman's Board of Missions at the Berlin Congrega- tional church yesterday. She hegan her talk by saying that <he is not & missionary. She said that she has been called a “returned mis- sionary” and wou.d be content to let it stand that way. She said that the work of missions is of tremendous importance to the entire world, some days ago and read the headline, “Coolidge Opposes Plan of Excluding Japanese.” That means a great deal ta the Japanese people, more than anyone can imagine, she said. why did he oppose that step?” she asked, answering it by saying that the Christians have risen up and appealed to him as the chief executive of the nation and he has listened to that ap- peal, Through missions will come international friendshlp and peace, she maid. In speaking of the problems now faced by the Japanese women, she said that not long ago American wom- en were expected to sit in their own homes and stay there, It was an al- most unheard of thing for a woman to desire a college aducation, However, the Japancse problem and the American problem differ in a no- table respeet. The Japanese women have not the underlying <Christian prineiples to work on and this makes a vast difference, No Cows, Horses or Women" The Japanese have lived through the experiences of the Greeks and the Romans. The women have risen to the helghts and have then fallen to| the depths, a8 far as importance and position go. In 200 A. D), Japan had zome great women. There were doc tors, poets and women prominept in publie life, But with the advent of Buddhism and Confucianism the women were found at the very lowest Aepthe, They wera placed on a lovel With animals and the speaker told of «ne notice which was placed at the ‘oot of a sacred mountain “This rountain is sacred. No cows, horses or women allowed,” Krom that depth they have had to huild, said Mrs. MacLean, Now the women of Japan have education. They are graduating from colleges and oth “r schools, They are going out inte nublie life and are helping Japan in or time of need following the great carthqua'se, Teachers have been sent ta that country from 1he United States 16 help them, Many of them are now at the head of the line in music, medicine and education 8he told of some of the customs in Japan, how a man could divorce his wife hy simply saving, “'I divorce you." e women would then have to go ut into 1he strests and make her own wing., A man could have as many nives as he pleased in 1he past, Mrs, MacLean said this is all heing done away with tiirough the work of the missions A great erganization that is doing wonders to protect the Japanese girls the large citles of 1hat country is e Young Women's Christian agso ation, she maye.

It has given us no trouble, has proven abso- lutely dependable at all times and as far as we are concerned, we are thoronghly sold on the use of oil for heating the home. No objectionable odors have been noticed and we have done ‘away entirely with dust and ashes and the inconvenience of moving them and the care necessary for the coal furnaces, and we helieve heated our house more economically than we could have heated it with coal.
