JAP QUARTER IN HONOLULU.

Letter in New York vening Post

Letter in New York vening Post
 There are parts of Honolulu where a stranger, strolling down the street, might readily fancy himself In Naga- saN or any one of the frequented Japanese ports. There are Japanese shops, hotels, theatres, residences, churches, and what not. The people one meets in the streets are all Japan csc wearing their native garb. Men go about in bare legs and Tapping ki- monos, intent on their business. Sol emn-faced little children play at kites or squat gravely on the sidewalk among their Japan-made toys. House. wives go pattering about on their hia wooden shoes. From the tea-houss one may hear occasionally strain Of unmelodious Japanese music, and the piping sing-song of the little geisha girls.
 One has always heard of the Japan csc as a smiling people and much given to a formal politeness with strangers. This cannot be a general rule, for have seen none of the smil- ing sort in any of the islands of the group. Driving or riding along the country roads or over the plantations, we have made it practice to greet with some effusiveness parties of Jap anese. The most we have got in reply has been stiff military salute. Gus tomarily no heed was paid to the greet ing, the little men of Nippon looking --- -- .-- AuAnly and sincrriouslY

 Dewey me -" said Cottrel, and again there was a shamefaced silence This was the sentiment of all.
 And then there came through the rare stiffness of the night loud report and fizzing, rushing sound. The crowd hurried to the door just in time to see shower of golden sparks dropping behind the crest of San Jago standardization rocket after rocket Suddenly wild column Of fire shot up against the sky.
 The southwest breeze brought down scattered sounds of singing.
 Then before the citizens Of Los Gar pillos could recover from their surprise, the crash of a military band broke on the night and the tune 1t played was 'There'll Be Hot Time In the Old Town Tonight" Out lined against the flames on San Jago mountain. black figures were prancing wildly Slowly Los Garpillos realized the situation. The San Jargons had stolen their celebration.

 Twice I remember pleasant excep- tions. One upon the Island of Kanal came upon score of Japanese urchins looking like so many little dolls with shaven polls. In response to my salute, they bowed in solemn unison, like so many little mandarins, flashing one beatific grin as their heads rose to gaze at the curious stranger Again in tiny little shop in Honolulu, where I went to buy some Japanese shoes and stockings, 1 sue ceeded in giving the impression by my clumsy use of what native words and pigeon English had at command that had Japanese wife. Once the mo- tion was grasped, the atmosphere cleared amazingly. The three little Japanese women in the shop came to my aid, offering their advice in making selections. The shopkeeper reduced his prices by more than one-half An old man smoking one of the little Jap anese pipes holding but pinch of tobacco and needing to be reilled after each whiff, politely got out fresn pipe and by gestures invited me to join him.
 In striking contrast with this surly demeanor and lack of civility of the average Japanese met about the is lands is the friendliness of the na>ive. Everywhere they were on the lookout for the visiting Congressman. Every where one came upon them they whip ped of their hats with flashing smiles and bright. eager eyes, calling "Aloha," to the visitors. At every stopping place, even if the pause was only for few minutes, they had pre- pared leis and garlands of flowers to hang about the necks of their guests.

Giving.

Those who follow the practice of
distributing presents at Christmas
time will derive more joy from the
holiday season than those who do not.
Most of the citizens of the country
make presents to relatives. sto friends,
to the poor. Yet there are hundreds
who never give nor receive.
Gift giving exercises a most bench
cial influence. upon the people. Ii
stands for charity, for Christianity, for
the rejoicing which every good citizen
should indulge in at such season
Best of all it means work to countless
thousands who otherwise would suffer
deprivation if not actual want in the
midst of winter. Gift giving causes
manufacturers to rush their plants
months before the holidays. The de-
mand for goods, increased by the
prospective purchase of presents
makes the wheels of business turn in
all the nations of the world. 1t gives
employment to statesmen and sales
women; it keeps in motion the wheels
and the hands that make nearly all
these things which are on sale in the
stores of Rock Island and in every
city. The citizen having the means
and who neglects to try and make
others happy with gifts is no part oil
that mass OF. humanity struggling tC
make the world happier
