Chiang Kai-shek, wRife of China's generalissimo, 'who appears with them at a conference of fifty- four leading Chinese women called in the first part of the summer at Kuling,4 China, to discuss the work of the women' of the country in the present situation. "It is interesting to note, said Professor Rufus," that the Uni- versity of Michigan had the largest delegation at the conference, and that seven of the -eight from here were Barbour scholars." The Universitysof Michigan delega- tion at the conference is pictured above with Mme. Chiang Kai-shek (standing third from left.) Two of the outstanding leaders at the conference were Dr. Yi-fang Wu and Dr. Lucy Wang. Dr. Wu, (stand- ing at the extreme right), is now president of Ginling College, former- ly located at Nanking but because of the present situation of the country has been moved to Chengtu, Szechuan Province. Dr. Wu attended the Uni- versity of Michigan from 1922 to 1928, receiving the degree of Ph.D. in biology. Dr. Lucy Wang (seated in the cen- ter), is president of Hwa Nan Col- lege which was moved from Foochow to Nanping, Fulkien Province. Dr. Wang enrolled in the University in 1921 and graduated with the degree of M.S. in chemistry in 1923. She re- turned in 1928 as a Barbour Fellow. Dr. Wang was one of the first to whom Mme. Chiang Kai-shek extended an invitation to the Kuling conference. Electricity, Lamps, Water Tanks Used In Therapeutic Treatments (This is the last of two articles deal- behind the nozzle.
