Cleanliness extends into their tents,

the Filipinos who will come here in the

correct the erroneous opinion held by

One Of the most marked characteristics
OF the natives Is their cleanliness. In this

They are quick 10 comprehend an idea.
and ready enough to carry II out. For the
most part they have good, Intelligent fea-
lures, and are strongly built, though small
in stature.
Arthur z. Anderson. the architect who
designed the block plan for the Philippine
exhibit, and who is directing the archi-
tectural work. says that the men are
faithful! in carrying out orders-if any
thing, too much so.
For instance. IL they are told to allow
no one to enter the inclosure, 1t IS certain
no amount OF persuasion will induce them
TO let any one come IN. No amount Of dis
play Of credentials will avail against such
an order.
Word from the person who has given the
order is necessary before they will discon-
tinue 10 enforce it. This trait, It is thought,
Is In a measure due to the strain OF Mon
golian blood which Is IN many FIHpinos.
Another distinguishing trait is their
pride and desire TO appear dignifed before
strangers. They dislike being photo
graphed unless dressed in their best
clothes and then only in dignihed poses.
While naturally friendly and sociable
people, they are silent and even naughty
with strangers. unless they are intro
duced by some one in whom they have
confidence. II this is done they become at
once courteous and are cage to please.
