Morally Athens is very virtuous city; Pr
litically it is about the worst in Europe. The
king uses the nation as a piece of property to
derive as muck income as possible, and makes
very little return to it. As fgurehead he is
pronounced success, but the Greeks are be-
ginning to tire of ruler who posses the
privileges of rule, enjoy its emoluments, and
acknowledges few or none of its responsible
ties. The king is quite society man. In the
annual New Years ball-the great object of
the year-he leads the dancing and plays the
agreeable generally. Court balls in a royal
capital without nobility are anomalous, but
in Athens are of frequent occurrence. In
politics the kings power is practically abso-
lutte, and he does not hesitate to employ it for
his own advantage. The personnel of the
civil service is liable to be changed with every
change of ministry, and the ministry itself is
in some years changed every three months.
That such a system must be full of abuses
goes without saying.
Absenteeism has reached higher stage of
development in the house of commons than in
congress. 1t strikes the visitor for the first
time as extremely ludicrous to see member
talking as if the salvation of Great Britain de-
pended on his convincing oratory, when not
over ten men are in the hall, and perhaps, not
one of them is paying any attention to him.
1t takes forty members to constitute quorum.
Now and then the conservative ''whip" takes
it on himself to stir the lazy liberals when
less than quorum is on hand. He rises to
the point of order that no quorum is present,
whereupon the eloquent gentleman who holds
the floor takes the seat. Then the liberal
"whip" touches the necessary wires, and lib
eral members come struggling in from the
library and Hobbies. The speaker counts forty
noses, the interrupted statesman proceeds with
his remarks, and the members who have been
dragged from more congenial employment
than listening to him, retire, leaving the at
tendance no larger than at first.
