Japan and the
European War.

Japan's entry into the conflict that
II favastng an Europe is unques-
ttonably dictated by selfish motives,
Notwithstanding the. official state
ment that the integrity OF China will
be maintained. Germany has but a
slight fooehold In China. at Kiao
Chow. where a tract about 200 square
miles In extent has been leased"
from the Chinese government.
Japan needs more room for her
rapidly Increasing population: it is
no longer possible for her to exist
within the restricted limits Of the
Japan archipelago. The acquisition
of F'ormosa was OF some assistance,
unquestionably, but greater areas are
an absolute necessity to the support
Of the people.
The Caroline Islands, in the South
Pacific are owned by Germany. and
the acquisition OF these islands
would be Of material assistance to
Japan. About one third Of the i'm
mense island OF New Guinea is also
owned by Germany, and If this were
added to Japanese territory the prob
lem Of race expansion would be
solved for some time to come.
Careful reading Of the text Of the
offensive and defensive agreement
between Great Britain and Japan, en-
tered into during July. 1913, fails to
show wherein Japan is justified in
making demands upon Germany. ex-
oept by great stretch OF the spirit Of
the agreement The object Of the
alliance. in substance, Is the main
tenance OF q general peace in the far
East. the preservation Of the common
interests OF all powers in China. the
maintenance Of territorial rights in
eastern Asia and India and the de-
Tense OF the special interests Of the
contracting parties in those regions.
The several articles Of agreement
mentions the possibility Of armed as
sistance. This article reads:
Article Two-n by reason of un-
provoked attack or aggressive action
whOAoNCk &4A@AuSs Ou lQ0 part OIL any
power or powers, either high contract
ing party should be involved in war
in defense OF its territorial rights or
special interests mentioned in the pre-
amble Of this agreement, the other
high contracting party will at once
come to the assistance of its ally, and
will conduct the war in common and
make peace in mutual agreement with |
it."
The only excuse for Japan's action, |
therefore seems to be belief that the
territorial rights and special interests !
in the far East are menaced by Ger
many-a fact which Is not vet ap-
parent to the world at large. But
note the concluding words of Article |
Two, ''and make peace in mutual |
a agreement with it," If that means
it means that Japan shall |
share the spoils Of victory, and part
of the spoils, in case of German de-
feat, will be the Caroline Islands and
the German possessions in New |
Guinea

The Men Who
Are Well Bred.

The words "men" and man are
often used in a comprehensive sense
In many places in the Bible it is used
to include both sexes, and it can be
done so in the instance Of speaking of
good-breeding.
There are both men and women who

good breeding.
It may be said that tho term bring
ing up" applies to good breeding, for
when a little child first opens its eyes
enp blank sheet Of paaa paaapsT1to asS be filled
correctly or incorrectly. Certain traits
may be inherited and developed to
some extent, but it Is largely. very
largely, in the bringing up and train
ing OF a child that the manners Of the
future men or women are developed
There may be some exceptions, but
there are exceptions to all rules.
Therefore. to have bred men
the work should begin in the nur-
sery.
The little child who Is taught to say
thank you," or ""scuse me-" Is being
trained to have manners and the kind
that will follow him through life.
Your tailor may tell you that It is
the clothes that make the man. It
Is true that they have q great deal
to do with his personal appearance,
but never forget that It is really man
ners chat make q man.
The well-bred man IL always cour-
teous and polite. He Is necessarily a
gentleman, II his good manners are
Unborn or real and not simulated. So
q weIl-bred man - q man Of the high
est order.
That environment and surroundings
have lots to do with the character of
men will not be called in question.
Lord Byron has said:
Men are the sport Of circumstances.
when
The circumstances seem to be the
sport OF men,"
Being weil-bred does not consist In
the close observance Of the rules Of
society alone. There's more to 1t than
this. It means a kind Of moral and
intellectual training that takes hold of
the heart and mind and shapes the
thoughts and acts Of the individual.
Good breeding is not simply an ac-
qutrement; it is a habit. 1t becomes
a part Of mans nature, and not an
external adornment. 1t comes from
within.
OF course. there are counterfeits of
well-bred men, but the fact that there
are counterfeits shows that being
well-bred is a characteristic worthy
of being cultivated. and something
that should be taught the child the
same as it is taught to lisp the name
Of its parents. This work of cultiva-
ton cannot be started too early in
life.
A child with bad manners is seldom
loved. The man or woman of bad
manners is really often disliked. Good
breeding simply means good training:
the requirement of a permanent cul-
ture and regard for others. The we'll
bred person always has admirers.
Once there lived two sisters, both
"old maids" but with manners that
were simply elegant, though quiet and

the community was thinking of send

Of the maiden sisters. Some one
asked him If he wasn't making a mis-
take-that the curriculum was not
high enough.
Doesn't make any difference about
that" replied the. father, they know
enough to teach my girl, and If she
doesn't learn another thing except to
acquire the polish and good manners
Of those ladies, will be we'll pleased"
A great tribute, that, but no greater
than is freely given in the hearts of
all for the well-bred and goodman

Gaelic is admitted by philologists to

has remained unchanged in some re-

evident from the fact, among others.
that place names extending from the
strait of Dardanelles to the western
coast Of Europe mean in Gaelic today

Even now the differences between the
Gaelic spoken by the Irish and the
Scottish Gaels are scarcely greater
