Bring Up Their Children Successfully
without Resorting to Cor

The high regard In which the japanese
hold children is well known. Thefalher
Or mother who wolld strike a child
would be considered an utter BARBARIAN
says Cassells.
In illustration of tais fact it is related
that the wife of an American missionary
in a Jauanese town was seen TO spank
one Of her children for some fault.
Tha; was sufficient fer the japanese
|dcmestics in the establishment. Iney
left the place abruptly. ard the mission
ary's wife was s%ervantless. Indeed
| when the act OF cruelty. as The Japanese
considered it, became noised abroad.7he
family found themselves boycotted. The
m~issionary'a occupation also was some.
for his influence over his native flock had
departed.
Although this was a heavy punishment
for what was at the most a very venial
| offence. it is fair TO the japanese TO say
that their method Of bringing UP then
sons and daughters without any form OF
punishment is eminently successful. Jap
anese children are shining examples OF
obedience and filial devotion.

parents of the child were Indifferent
about the operation, at best, while in
