Description
Girl students of Peking University, Peking, China, on a picnic on the grounds of the Temple of Heaven. Peking University stands for equal educational opportunities for men and women and this is one of the few institutions in China where men and women students meet on the footing that they do in coeducational universities in America. The students of the women's college of Peking University recently broke all precedents by presenting a Shakespearean play, the girls carrying all the roles, and giving the $1,200 in receipts from the performance to the famine sufferers.
