All girls in Japan are taught ethics.
They are told to be filial to their par

brothers and sisters and to live peace

handed it. Before that girls were
taught according TO the laws of the

RECORD OF PAGANS IGNORED
Christian Saint as the Per sonaI Ideal

The transition from pagan to medic. val thinking is marked by the intro duction of Christian ideals and the ascendancy of the organized church. asserts a writer in the Engineering Magazine. The Roman citizen. ani- mated by the sense of human dig. nifty. had cultivated a quick assertion of rights and quick resentment of wrongs. The Christian priest, humil- lated by a sense of sin, now sounded the depths of self-sacrifice and bodily modification. The hordes of barba- rian invaders who exterminated the nIartially inclined Romans ignored the humble early Christian bishops, and permitted them to possess them selves of the administrative plan of the fallen empire, and organize their church upon 1t.
 Learning also fell into the hands Of the church, SO that soon the story of ancient virtue was real only in monasteries where, viewed as the rec ord of pasans. 1t fell coldly upon minds filled with the doctrine of human depravity. and cramped into a barren dialectic by the limits which religious dogma imposed. And so, within the precincts of the church. in the her mit's retreat and in protected monas- teries and nunneries. the image of the pagan hero faded into the back ground and that of the Christian saint was installed as the personal ideal

WHY INVITE AGGRESSION?
French, Russian and British Diplo.
mats at Washington Make Strong
Representations to Wilson
and Bryan.

Washington, Aug. 31-Great Brit
ain, France and Russia have advised
the United States informally that they
would look with disfavor on the pur-.
chase by this government of German
merchant steamers to relieve cond;-
tions growing out of the European
war and also to build up an American
merchant marine. While not conveyed
in any diplomatic correspondence,
their position nevertheless has been
vigorously set forth to President Will
son and Secretary Bryan
France took the initiative, Ambas-
sador Jusserand carrying his objec-
tions to President Wilson in his re-
cent interview at the White House.
George Bahkmeteff, the Russian am
bassador, conferred with the British
and French ambassadors today and
later saw Secretary Bryan All three
diplomats held that there was no prec-
edent in international law for the pur-
chase by a neutral nation of any
great quantity of ships from belli-
gerent
The chief objection urged is that the
transaction would establish a large
gold credit in the hands of Germans
The diplomats point out that the
German steamship companies are
closely affiliated with the German gov
ernment and to buy their ships, now
marooned in American ports, would be
tantamount to furnishing Germany
with large loan. Should tht Ameri-
can government, however, distribute
its purchases of ships equally among
the belligerent, nations, they do not
believe there would be objection from
any quarter.
Considerable difficulty would arise,
however, it is asserted, if, for in
purchased by the United States were
maintained on it as the English and
French governments would not allow
the nationals of any belligerent to
land from neutral ships at their ports.
The European diplomats have en-
deavored to point out that they desire
in no way to interfere with the up
building of an American merchant
marine and wish it success in neutral
countries, but they think the Ameri-
can governments ships could not be
ligerent countries of Europe.

Within Their Rights.

Washington, Aug. 31.-State. depart
ment officials did not regard as un-
usual the reported removal of German
and Austrian reservists from Aneri-
can ships off Hong Kong, prsvided
the incident occurred within the three
mile limit of the British port. Inas-
much as Hong Kong is under British
jurisdiction her warships could arrest
the nationals of any belligerent within
territorial waters.
What might be the opinion of the
Americsn government if the reservists
were taken from American vessels on
the high seas is undetermined. State
department officials said tonight no
complaint of that character had been
placed before them.
