life of the villagers year after year, and the appreciation and admiration we meet with

from the inhabitants, give us added hope to carry on with this project.

There is another group of young women who cooperate with the Cooperation Club in the project of summer camps held for young women of various classes; and another team joins with the students of the American University of Beirut in setting up a free camp for poor boys who have been deprived of the delight of learning and of a sound upbringing.

Perhaps the most important benefits the girl students reap from these social works are the awakening of their feeling and their opening up to the problems of their society; their coming to know at close hand the needs of the country; their training in the true spirit of leadership, free of selfishness and the love of show; and, in consequence, the experience of that inward feeling and deep pleasure a person knows upon performing his human duty — that feeling of happiness which grows as the happiness of the beings around him grows. Works such as these cannot yield effective results unless the student grows up with them while still at school, where she reckons with them in her doings and touches them in her society, so that her spirit becomes steeped in them and she carries them out with all the greater ardor after her graduation from college. Indeed, the work of some of this institution's graduates in the social field bears out the truth of what I say.

And as I opened my talk with the saying of the sage of China, so shall I close it with the Chinese proverb that says:

"If you would plant for a year, plant wheat; if you would plant for ten years, plant trees; and if you would plant for a hundred years, plant men." And who but the conscious woman can create man anew? If we would plant for a hundred years, then let us plant women of whom we can make a leaven for good and a salt for reform — women who carry their torches high, fulfilling the saying of Confucius:

"It is better for a man to light a small torch than to curse the darkness."
