English social life, says a corres- pondent writing in a Home paper.
Mrs. Chong is on her first visit to England. She is the 20-year- old slater of the ex-Emperor of China, now regent of the new State of Manchukuo. Her hus- band is the grandson of Mr. Cheng Ilsius-hsu, Prime Minister of Man- chukuo, and a man of vigorous
and great intellect
force of character,
Sir Reginald, now Professor of Chinese at the School of Oriental Studies in London, has known Birs. Cheng since she was a child. having been tutor to the Emperor before becoming Commissioner of Woi-hal-Wei.
London Not Too Nolay We were all delighted at the great intelligence and the gracious manner of Mr. and Mrs. Cheng, to whom we were introduced by their host. They were both in Chinese dress. Mrs. Cheng, a slender dainty Ogure, looked exceedingly attractive in a long green velvet robe over which she wore a richly- coloured scarf.
Her husband speaks English fluently. Under the tuition of an English governess Mrs. Cheng In making ranid progress in the Janguage.

"No. I do not mind the noise or traffic and what you call the rapid pace of life here. It is all so novel And so inspiriting."

"But I think," interposed Mr. Cheng, who is a devoted husband. "that Western attire does not altogether sult the figures of Eastern women; and I have some- times thought, when I have seen English women wearing Eastern dress, that the Western fashions are more becoming to them than the clothes our womenfolk wear."
Mra, Cheng does not lack the modern apirit. She plays golf; and she rides-not your great horses," aho pointed out, "but a beautiful little pony,"
Did she propose to ride in the Rotten Row?
and dis-
Yes, perhaps one day. I am sure Mrs. Cheng, with her aristocratic features, raven-black hair trim figure, would have a tinguished appearance in the Row. both Mr. and Mrs. Chong acem to have enjoyed most of all the wonderful spectacle of the Regent- street shops in the Christmas shopping season.
