CHINESE ARMY FINDS
PIGTAIL A HINDRANCE
Queue Is to Be Abolished as
Unmilitary Appendage

The fact that the pigtail is to be
abolished in the Chinese army as "a
hopelessly unmilitary appendage" is
another sign of the leavening process
which is at work in the Middle King
dom, says the Westminster Gazette.
The queue was originally, as is well
known, badge of servitude, but it
has long played a not unimportant
part in the Chinese system of etiquette.
Sometimes, when the nature of his
work necessitates it, the queue is tenn
porarily wound in a coil round the
neck or shoulders, but no Chinese serv-
ant or inferior would ever appear with
it arranged thus before his master or
superior. 1t should always hang down
behind, and one can easily see how
awkward an ornament il mis- ght be on
the battlefield. Japan began her 'civil-
ization" by abandoning the "topknot," !"
but if the pigtail is, like small feet,
to disappear from China there will be
nothing distinctive of the celestial left.
