CULTURE
WEE
And Her Hand-Maiden Commerce.
7EBSTER interprets Culture "the training, and improvement and refinement of the mind, morais and taste." The greatest influence in promoting Culture has been Commerce because Commerce is ever responsive to the whims and wants of progressive. humanity.
Wherever there arises the inspiration of an artist, "wherever a design, 'a need, a field, or a fancy to con- tribute to the convenience of human kind commerce makes it accessible regardless of span of oceans, or obstacles between those who, create and those who covet. In the nunneries of France fine laces and lingeries are contrived for the trouseau of a bride in buttecreek. The essences of Araby, are imprisoned in the par- fumeries that Paris passes on to the boudoirs of Park Lane.

TENNIS.
'LADY CHAMPION OF JAVA.
Miss Lucy Lee, the lady tennis champion of Java, who played ex- hibition games at the Chinese Re- creation Club yesterday, set a new! style in apparel for net women by appearing on the court in a sleevc- less white blouse and long trousers, which gave her a mannish appear-
ance.
Miss Lee was opposed by Miss Enid Lo in a singles gáme, and rather disappointed the spectators by losing to the local girl. Miss) Lo was at the top of her form and appeared to be unable to do any thing wrong, whilst the visiter dis- played few good strokes, being gen- erally weak in the exchanges. Miss Lo won by 6-1, 6-2.
In a doubles game which follow- ed. Miss Lee partnered Miss Lo against Mrs. James and Mrs. Keary. The European pair proved too strong a combination for the Chin- ese and won in straight sets of 6-3, 7-5, but they had to play all they knew to secure the last set.
Subsequently a mixed doubles game was played. Miss Lee was partnered by S. A. Rumjahn, whilst Miss Lo played with her brother M. W. The brother and sister's team work was perfect, no doubt due to constant play together. This advantage was too much for the other pair, who, although they put up a gallant fight, lost by 6-1, 7-5,
