KOREA AND
THE KOREANS
Continued from page six)

by nature amatorially inclined; on tn
contrary. He enters matrimony at the
earliest possible moment, but this Is
not because he falls in love, or even to
make an ambitious match, but simply
and solely to be married. One might
imagine from this that marriages in
Korea were invariably happy and
that in yet another manner Seoul were
indeed the Happy Valley of Rasselas.
Unfortunately, it is only for his own
social position that takes the step.
Hitherto he has worn his hair in
braid down his back, and to put it up
mani fashion he must take to himself
spouse. In short, he becomes a man
only by marriage, and can only thus
enter upon civil rights. If the West
ern world were to adopt this practice
the French might perchance dispense
with bounties on births, and we with
presidential encomiums.
Social functions in Korea were sole
| ly stag dinners, enlivened by singers
and dancers with flower names. They
took place not in the evening but in
the afternoon, and come back to me-
mory as they stood forth at the time,
stepped in the red glow of the setting
sun. And then the hustle as the guests
! departed, the freely lanterns in the
courtyard fitting about, the red and
green palanquins, eight bearers apiece
| lifted from the ground as each official
entered his own, the cries of the at
tendants and the final sallying forth in
to the night.
Ambition found its place in political
intrigue. At the slightest preteXt one
party rose against the other, and, if
successful, massacred it's opponents to
man. The rumors reaching us now
of risings in Seoul are what may at
any moment be expected of the land
which values peace and seclusion above
any country on earth.
Last of all diversions come the cere-
monies at death. White, not black, is
the garb of mourning, as near white
as distinction from everyday apparel
! will permit 1t is the unbleached
/ straw-c color of sackcloth. And it is
worn an unconscionable time: three
years for a father, two for a mother
and for other relatives to match. II
would seem that Korean must be In
mourning an imposing fraction Of his
life.
We began our memory of Seoul II
! the morning: may we not fifty close II
with the advent of night? As tht
cleaning fades away, a watcher may
see suddenly shine out upon the top OF
Namsan, or the South Mountain, -four
bonfire stars. For fifteen minute!
they flash there, to tell Korea that al
is peace; and then, as suddenly, they
go OUT and the watcher below become!
aware that everything about him il
wrapped in gloom. A curfew law for
bids all but magistrates to be out afte
dark, and the city lies sunk in a starli
silence that may be felt. Alone 70
him the hours speed by, until, booming
through the distance, come the solemn
tones of a great Far Eastern bell. l

INAUGURAL COMMITTEE
TO HAVE NO HOLIDAY

Today will witness a cessation of the
iabors of the inaugural committee, but
nc holiday VIII be taken by the work
ing members OF the organization tomor-
row. Secretary Hitchcock viii have his
office force at work bright and early in
the morning while the rest of the city
is taking a rest.
That the corps of stenographers should
be at their desks tomorrow is neces-
sary because OF the prompt manner in
which General Wilson and Mr. Hitch
cock handle the correspondence Long
experience has taught both Of them the
value of keeping their desks clear of
letters, and every communication that
comes 10 either is answered at the
earliest possible moment
Ever since the committee got down 10
work General Wilson has been ar his
desk from O'Clock until after 4, while
Mr.. Hitchcock and the stenographers
remain until O'Clock, and then come
back for a night session, frequently
continuing their work until midnight.
The result OF this is that everything
Is in perfect shape. The management
OF the work of the inaugural committee
cannot be surpassed by that OF any
Government or business office
AT o'clock yesterday the committee
on printing met at the New Willard to
receive bids for the inaugural souvenir
book The bids were turned over to Mr.
Hitchcock, who will keep them until
thursday, December %. At D. m on
that day the printing committee will
meet and give the bids formal consider
