Dragon Boat Festival Begun
700 Years Ago, Is Also
Forbidden

CANTON, China, Sept. l3.-For the
4irst time in centuries the dragon boat
Festival, the most popular aquatic
sport in Southern China, was not Gel
,ebrated this year. 1t has always
taken place June 10, which is the
fifth day OF the fifth moon, accord
ing to the Chinese calendar The
Governor General of Kwangtung, WI
Hon Man, has proclaimed against it
as superstitious, and forbidden its
further observance. This is the first
OF q series of executive orders con-
demning the worship of idols and the
celebrating of the birthdays of the
many gods and ancient heroes. 1t
Is hoped by many that only Confu4
.cius will be the, national character
universally honored throughout the
nation. ,5s.sss -.a ~. + =.
The dragon boat festival had its
origin several hundred years before
Christ In early Chinese history a
man committed suicide by drowning
IN order to avoid living as subject
of another chief. His day admired
the spirit of dying free man rather
than living slave To keep the
Ecreatures Of the sea from devouring

A dragon boat to a clansman is

!. According to the common belief of
many the way to heaven is river.
One day, long ago, the ruler of heay-
en- saw the work of His diligent cow
boy, who lives on one side of the
river, and was pleased. He gave His
Industrious weaving girl on the other
ride of the river to him in marriage.
After they had been married they be-
gan to. neglect their respective duties.
The ruler found them together more
than In their daily occupations.
The ruler became angry. He sep
srated the couple, permitting them to
see each other hut once a year, the
night before the seventh of the sew,
enth moon. To enable the pair to
meet on that night the crows of the
air, would form q bridge across the,
river. On the bridge the two had
their annual reunion. ~ ... - i
; The weaving girl is worshipped by
Chinese girls as their saint, At the
celebration of the festival the girls
will come together in, some public
place, bringing with theim their paint
ings, embroideres and other works of
art they, have made during the year
for exhibition. They come to the
meetings about s O'Clock in the even
ing on. the eve of the festival and pass
their time in singing and other forms
of pleasure talking in a low
tons and laughing at the top of their
voices. They worship heaven. too.
About daybreak each girl has needle
in her left hand and thread in thel
right. AS soon as they see a crow
flying around their premises each puts
a thread through the eye of .theI
needle, the girl who succeeds first be-
Ing considered the fayorite of thel
saint in that crowd and maybe the
best embroiderer. of her community
in the future, if traditions are true.
. Men are admitted to see the exhi-
bitions of art, work, of these girls only
before or after the meeting and cere-
mony. Boy may see them.
From now on, however, girls do not
have to depend on luck for getting a
skillful or good husband. The country
girls may, but the city young women
dc, have the privilege of seeing their
husbands before the an
of the engagement. Ac-
cording to new custom in the cities,
The man and woman have to sign their
marriage contract before it is legal.

cities today is the low opinion the
