NOTABLE CEREMONY IN SIAM
Presentation by the King OF yellow
Robes to Priests Of Bud
hist Temples.

Once year, says writer In the
Wide World Magazine, all the Budd
hist temples in Siam are visited by
the king, or his deputies, bearing the
Phra Kathin yellow robes). in con
formity with an ancient custom by
which the priests were made to seek
their apparel for the ensuing year.
During the lifetime of Buddha, monks
and priests were sent out to beg for
old, cast-off garments, which were
afterward dyed yellow and patched
together to form the required robes.
This ancient mendicant custom gradu.
aally gave place to the present one OF
making the garments from new cloth
of a bright canary yellow, provided
by Joint contributions of king, princes,
mobiles and commoners. When the
king goes in the royal throne barge
to present the robes in person he
does so with great pomp and cere-
mony The priestly garments. folded
in bundles, are carried to the door
of the temple to await the appearance
OF his majesty and his suite. The
king, on arriving, takes priestly
robe and places 1t on decorated
altar The chief priest then lays his
hands on the garment and chants an
acknowledgment.

She met Griswold's obvious disap-
pointment with prompt explanation.
You see, the governor of South
Carolina cannot stoop to an exchange
of billingsgate with an underbred per-
son like that-a big, solemn, conceited
creature in long frockcoat and a
shoestring necktie, who boasts of be-
longing to the common 'peopull.' He
doesn't have to tell anybody that
when it's plain as daylight. The way
to answer him is not to answer at
all"
Excellent. It's bound to irritate
and it leaves him in the dark as to
our-I mean Gov. Osborne's-inten-
tions. And those intentions"
During this by-play he had reached
a decision as to what should be done
and he was prepared to answer when
she asked, with an employment of the
pronoun that pleasantly emphasized
their relationship:
What are our intentions?"
