OF educated Japanese men ready ~
take him about and TO put themselves to no
end OF trouble for him. This is not neces-
sariy due 10 friendship. however, but rather
to an intelligent curiosity. The Japanese are
often pleased to meet a newcomer either to
practice talking English with him or to learn
his ideas. so they can compare his views with
those of the resident foreigner. The new
conner is apt to imagine that he has made un-
usual progress. and cannot understand how 1t
Is that the local foreigner persists in telling

the general bearing OF the Japanese Is
such as to impress the newly arrived

The author, indeed, does not hesitate to say
that the Japanese are not fond of foreigners in
the abstract Why should one expect them to
be so? In their heart of hearts. very few pco-
pie in any country are fond Of foreigners as n

were less than sixty miles OF railroad in tho
United States, On two OF the three railways

they descended by their own gravity. 1t is

The fuel shortage is a question
that is attracting considerable at
tention. Throughout the country
coal stocks are low, and it is claimed
that the output is net increasing as
men ARE scarce in the coal fields, and
cannot be obtained to work the
mines without an increase in the rate
OF wages. The consumption Of coal
has been greater this year than ever
before An increase in the price OF
coal will add to the cost Of power in
the manufacturing plants in most
cities, and also allow Il higher
market price for wood. Little
Falls and Morrison county
will not be alarmed over high prices
for coal. The city has surplus water
power that manufacturers can use
to avoid the expense for coal, and
the county can supply many train
loads OF wood to take the place of
coal. Higher prices for coal will not
scare us I, bit.
