JAPANESE MORALS AND IDEALS.

The address Of Mr.. HiOki, first secretary OF
the Japanese Legation at Washington, TO the
Congress of Mothers on its international day
was more than usually important, coming at
time when Japan fills so large place in the
news of the day and in the thought of the
Western world. Nothing japanese is uninter-
esting now. when all eyes are turned to the
rising or. perhaps it were better to say. the
risen power of the Orient Aside from ideas as
10 the influence Of motherhood upon character
which are the common heritage of Western ma
tons Mr.. HiOkis address carries us back until
we find in Spartan ideals the nearest approach
10 those which reign in Japan as regards the
proper teaching of children, and even these fall
short Of the ideal of Japan in this respect as
represented in these words of Mr.. Hioki:
In Jspan the rule OF age before beauty finds
its real application. There a baby obtains no
privilege Of being served at table before its
elders II is the mothers duty to see that the
children come TO the front door of the house
when the father leaves TO attend TO his duty,
and to be there when he returns. The mothers
OF Japan teach their children according TO the
book called Teaching OF Children which Is
regarded as the embodiment Of the Golden
Rule This book teaches that children should
be severely punished for lying or deceit boy
should be brave. but tender. Should he run
home chased by some superior antagonist, the
door will be closed to him by the mother. do
not fear the loss of life when It is for righteous
cause but you should show a tender heart,
even TO your enemy when he is at your mercy"
is the teaching OF this book. which is most
carefully inculcated by the mothers OF Japan.
Such lessons of tenderness, united with cour-
age and filial piety, have been voiced by some
poets of the Western world but they have no
authoritative place among the morals incul-
Gated in the schools, and rarely, perhaps, in
those taught by the fireslde in the Occident.
That they are admirable probably would be
generally admitted. but, as a rule, in practical
everyday life in Europe or America such pre-
cepts sadly at variance with what can be
seen upon the streets or in the homes of the
people
AS supplementary 20 this exposition of Jap
anese teaching on childhood may be cited an
article on Moral Teaching IN Japan by Baron
Syematsu, In THE Nineteenth Century and
After" According 10 Baron Syematsu, Japan
csc moral notions do not materially differ in es
sence and purpOrt from those Of Greek ethics OF
the PlatOnie school or the moral teaching OF
the Gospel, though in classification and in the
prominence given 10 one or other of the virtues
all these systems diverge in some respects.

eianism, but with such notifications as help to
make them conform 10 Japanese IDEAS and

sition OF these teachings is the Emperof's In

To the Western mind this rescript sounds, ex
cept for the Oriental boast at its close. much
like moral platitudes with which all are on
terms of familiarity-excep in practice. In
short read without n just conception of Jap
anese history and character. this rescript throws
little light upon this wonderful nation OF the
Orient But even Western peoples acknowledge
that man in earnest is always factor to be
carefully considered; in Japan 1t is people in
earnest, bent upon achieving the highest pos
sible results along worthy and noble lines or
effort and conduct. Yet this earnestness has
nothing fanatical about it, The moral teachings
Of the Japanese also inculCate love for the
beautiful in nature and the joyousness of life
while recognizing that these are means and
not ends in themselves. In fact, in order TO
comprehend the Japan of to-day. the Western
mind must forget its Occidental and traditional
attitude many important subjects and APP
proach the subject as Plato or as the modern
scientist would approach it, with no prepos-
sessions. but with a desire to arrive at the
truth. Thus approached there is, perhaps, no
more heaIthful or profitable subject just at
present for Europeans and Americans to study
than Japanese character and the environment
and atmosphere which produced it.
