. U.S. Women

Are Bulwark For Chinese

Presence of Missionaries Is Protection for High Officials.

By KATHERINE CARTER The skirts of American women missionaries are affording Ching’s highest Government officials pro-

tection from Japanese bombs. It was fortunate that wives and children of missioneries chose August to go to summer headquarters in Kuling. But it was even more fortunate for China. Her leaders at national headquarters in Kuling fear no attack because some 3000 American and European women and their children are unwitting barricades. At more isolated posts are missionary nurses, toften the only white women for miles, awaiting

Miss Nancy Fry,

Miss Fry fighting zone, at Nan Tung Chow with Miss Vincoe Mushrush as her only aid. Caught in Shanghai

In war-torn Nanking is Miss Cammie Gray, daughter of M. H. Gray, for 30 years an Indianapolis resident. Miss Margaret Lawrence has been caught in Shanghai with nothing but a suitcase of clothes. She arrived early in August from her post to see her mother, who had been visiting her, and her brother, an oil official, aboard ship for ‘he United States. In the meantime, active warfare began and she was unable to leave the city. In the heart of China, at her nurses’ post, is Miss Grace Young, who is termed a ‘good scout’ by her friends. Also at Nanking are Mr. and Mrs. Edwin Marx, Miss Minnie Vaudrin, dean of the women’s college, and Miss Edna Gish.

Women May Nurse

Dr. Alexander Paul, executive secretary, foreign missionary department, United Board of Christian Missions, says that these women may be called upon to head nurse | corps at Red Cross hospitals. “If the fighting around their stations becomes severe, their hospitals will be turned into Red Cross hospitals. However, they all may be removed as they were in 1927,” he says. “In that case they will either be sent to the Philippine Islands or to the United States. I hope it is the latter, for it is the rainy season in the Philippines.”

Trouble No Innovation

Trouble is not an innovation for these women. When they chose China for their field, they were aware of the fact that trouble, with occasional outbursts of warfare, has | been brewing since 1911. “I doubt if they are in serious danger at present,” says Dr. Paul. “The Japanese will be coubly careful not to agitate foreign ill-feeling, because they are already on the defensive with foreign powers. “Both the Chinese and the Japanese have great respect for them. But, of course, there is aiways danger from stray bombs and shells.”

glory is a thrilling experience for a

So says Miss Dorothy Jackson, daughter of Mrs. Andrew

who has just returned from an exSeidel, radio star, at his home in

“Life is just a song from morning until night among this crowd of musical entertainers,” explaine' Dorothy, who is finding it a bit dif-

ficult to come down to earth after her airplane flight from California to Indianapolis.

She has been present at such

quantities of dress rehearsals, broad- |

casts, and musical parties that her curly head still buzzes with many melodies and memories, she confesses. It was an exciting day when she and Eddie Cantor held up Hollywood traffic. the street together when a horde of autograph seekers, who seem to spring out of the ground at every turn in Hollywood, encircled them and demanded Eddie's signature. “It was right in the middle of a busy street,” Dorothy said, “But Eddie just rolled his eyes and obliged while traffic stood still.”

Cousin Is Actress Dorothy spent a great deal of her time with Joy Kendall, film actress, who is in reality her cousin, Gretchen Seidel, formerly of apolis. “Joy is only a beginner in the movies,” Dorothy explained, “but she is being groomed for some important parts this fall.”

Joy played the part of a shop girl in “Topper,” but she mourned the

| fact that her best scenes were left

on the cutting room floor in the final production, Dorothy said with a grin, Some 8000 feet of film were cut out of the picture, it seems, and now Joy fears that the only fan mail she will get from this picture will be from the cutting room janitor.

Blister Halts Film “It takes a real trouper to make the grade,” Dorothy sighed, as she recalled that her cousin was left sitting in the studio for three hours, during the making of “Topper,”

conferred about

actresses’ skin biemish had vanished. During the last few days of Dorothy’s visit, swimming and sunning parties were crossed off the girls’ daily program. “Bleaching orders” had come to Joy from the studio and she was forced to stay indoors in order to lose some of the tan which she had acquired. “Everybody wears dark glasses in Hollywood,” Dorothy said. But it isn’t for affectation, as many people imagine, this Indianapolis girl explained. “The California sun is really as glowing as it is represented to be,” she added.

Met Stuart Irwin

Stuart Irwin and June Collier of movieland live across the street from the Seidel family and Dorothy enjoyed their neighborly hospitality. She considers Virginia Bruce one of the most beautiful of the screen actresses she met.

Show Boat hour, captured Dorothy’s fancy with his picturesque, cherubic appearance. Snowy white hair, ruddy pink cheeks and twinkly eyes are the characteristics

which make this entertainer dis- |

tinctive, Dorothy said. Among the prized souvenirs which Dorothy brought from California is a gaily painted china pig bank, which she purchased on Olvera St. in Los Angeles. It is the story lurking back of this Mex-

ican piece which intrigues Dorothy |

the most. Anne Lindbergh's sister, originated the china pig banks when she started teaching school in Mexico, it seems.

Saving Unheard Of Money-saving was unheard of

among the native children, so she!

came upon the idea of attracting the youngsters’ attention to coin hoarding by having the little pigs painted in vivid shades. Only by breaking the little animals can the coins be obtained after they have once gone through the slot. Be-

cause pigs are considered sacred animals in Mexico, the money-sav-ing habit was thus established. “It has been a summer of fun,”

| Dorothy said, “but now I'll have to! get down to serious business and |

study.” She plans to return to Butler this fall, where she is a sophomore. Although she comes from a musically talented family, Dorothy has chosen to be a kindergarten teacher and do her singing in lullabies and [ rhymes.
