[108] Greek conditions are analogous to conditions prevailing in Slavic
countries; hence Greece will be treated here. Greece was liberated from
Turkish control in 1827.
[109] There are elementary schools for boys and girls. The secondary
schools for girls are private. The first of these was founded by Dr. Hill
and his wife, who were Americans. Preparation for entrance to the
university is optional and is carried on privately. Athens University has
admitted women since 1891.
[110] The English have abolished slavery in Egypt.
[111] See _Conseil des Femmes_, October, 1902, for the romantic
"Desenchantees" of P. Loti, and Hussein Rachimi's "Verliebter Bey."
[112] Compare _La crise de l'orient_, by Ahmed Riza.
[113] See the analogous action of the English in India.

_Mag der Baum wohl wachsen in dem Walde,
Aber keine Tochter mir geboren werden._
[116] India still retains the official regulation of prostitution (which
was abolished in England in 1886). Here again, militarism is playing a
decisive part in blocking this reform.
[117] In Bangkok, in Farther India (Siam), there is a woman's club with
the Siamese Princess as President.

qu'il la constate, qu'elle se revele chez un homme ou chez une femme._"

[121] The University of Tokio is still closed to women. Women attend the
Woman's University, founded in 1901 by N. Naruse.
