In battle Corean generals are always
accompanied by their servants. When
he rides on horseback, a general has a
servant on each side of his war horse to
hold him in position, and a third stands
at the horses head to hold the animal
during the fight, or to lead it to the ad-
vance or retreat.
These ervants accompanied General
Han to the gate of the kings audience
hall. They left him there, and he walked
alone across the yard, with his head bent
and his sword hilt toward the ground.
He walked softly up the steps at the left
leading into the room in which his males
ty the king of Corea stood, bent down
on all tours and bumped his head before
him as a sign of the reverence he felt for
his king.
Then, rising, he stood, with his sword
uplifted, at the right of the king, while
my audience took place. At the close of
it he backed out from the kings presence
with Bonded head, and so continued till
outside the gate, where he again sprang
into greatness, and had a whole host of
servant to do him homage.
This oriental formality runs through
all ranks of the Corean army. 1t is
the ruin Of the service. Corea will
never have good soldiers until the Off
GERS learn military tactics by the
same hard knocks that our officers do,
and until they put themselves more ON a
level with their troops, and work with
them.-Frank G.. Carpenter in Youths
Companion.
