Although there have beep decided advances both in the method and the spitit of Egyptian ed for men, nothing has h ned more 8! cant in the past twenty-five y! in Egypt than the arousal of interest in the education of women. is country waits to-day for an ucated and high-minded mother- hood; its absence in the past ac counts for most of its ills. i The woman of Egypt in ber igno! fnce of the laws of health and do- meéstic economy, in her jealousy and. intriguing, In her necessarily - cumscribed and bigoted influence among the boys and girls of tbe home, has been the Egyptian's se- verest handicap. It matters. little how good the schools may be made, it matters not how perfect may be the political and commercial ma- chitie, it is true here as always that the early ideas and the first years of environment are the deciding ele- onl fn the future career of the Egyptian boy. Until recently it has never oceur- red to an Egyptian woman that there ® existed for her any life other t»-n that of being the secluded wife of &n Egyptidn man. To earn a living in any other way than by being mar- ried did not even occur to the mind of the mother of the present Egyp- tian girl, writes Clayton Sedywick Cooper in The World's Work. A Mohammedan gentleman sald re- cently, "My mother, now an old wo- man, has never stepped (put of her house, not even to cross the street." It is therefore little less tian re- volutionary that, in 1810, instruc- tion was given in 2,867 ""knttabs" to 23,002 girls, and that thirteen of the Government "kuttabs" have been specially set apart for women stu- dents, which schools, carefully in- spected by traimed educators, are now attended by 2,080 girls, with 42 trained woman tegchers. During the past five years the number of primary schools in which girls have received instruction has grown 40 per cent. It is also strik- ingly notable that, according to the report of the year, 417 girls in these earlier grades were blind. This movement for the training of avomen began in 1901, when the Ministry of Education sent an Egyp- tian girl student to Europe for pro- fessional training. This young wo- man returned as teacher in ome of the schools which previously had been set apart for girls, and the re- sults have been sufficiently. satisfac- tory to cause the Government to send girl students regularly to Europe for professional training. Harvesting at Christmas. The ingathering of the harvest is usually associated with the summer. But there is a harvest in England which custom decrees shall always begin on December 21st, St. Thomas' Day, and which continues well over Christmas. This is the reaping of the reeds which grow so rankly, yet so pic- turesquely, in the shallow, land. locked waters of the Norfolk and Suffolk "broads.'"

Hughes London, Fel. 13.--A considerable amount of splice is devoted to the Bisley dispute in the current issue of the Army and Navy Gazette, which zood one, although regret is express- ring of Canadians from the territor- ial competitions. "If Canadians would study the War Office view of the matter we have no doubt that Owing to the dispute over the Ross rifle two years ago they have become suspicious for the most part of all our regulations. Many of them are under the suspicion that we do not want to see them at Bisley at all, an idea as wide from the truth as anything could be." Colonel Hughes is on the same ground, when he says that Canadians cannot return to the open sight. We all know it is abso- lete, but it is less obvious why Col- onel Hughes should label competi- tors in the Keolapore and MacKinnon as pot-hunters.
