country, and if the climate could be
modified a bit and the people disappear
it would not be such a terrible place.
But these two little ifs are very hard
to change The people do not appeal
to an American They are so dishonest
and deceitful. A native who is not
smart enough to deceive or get the
best of another is considered stupid
Lying is their speciality The children
are actually taught and encouraged to
lie Some of them are quite bright, and
are learning English rapidly. With diff
ferent surroundings they would grow
up to be better men and women than
the present generation.
1t is considered disgrace for MEM
bers of the so-called best families to
work, and as some of them have no
money, they can only make a living by
gambling swindling some poor HON
bre" out of his hard earned dollars
The poor fhombre," however, does not
usually overwork; just enough to get
rice and fish to eat, and few rags for
clothes is all he wants.
Everything is quiet here. But the
leaders want independence, and will
never be satisfied with anything else
/ would like to see them try to run
things alone 1t would not be long be-
fore Germany or England would gobble
them up. In spite of all the kindness
that the United States has shown. the
ignorant people are made to feel hard
against US by the mass of lies told them
by their leaders.
We have a fraile in town, who holds
service every Sunday. In some places
the people have driven these men out
of otwn, but this one is unmolested. We
thought him rather nice until he said
he could not have the midnight mass
Christmas because it had been forbid
den in Manila and all the provinces.
This he did to make them think that
the Americans were interfering with
their religious liberty. The true reason
was that the people here are poor, and
did not raise a sum which he consider
ed sufficient to pay him for the mass.
l think the Spaniards gave the Fill
pinos some pretty good samples of lying
and dishonesty. and it is partly that
training that has made them what they
are.
