HOW ABOUT JAPAN +?
By Frederic ]. Haskin
CONTINUED From Editorial Pagel

garded railways and telegraph lines
with all the fear and hostility that
might have been expected from them.
They offered 10 appreciable opposi-
ton because they had been trained
for centuries, as no other people ever
yielding to authority. The relation
of every rank to every other rank was
fixed and ironbound. Retainer owned
allegiance to his lord, and the lord
bowed to the mandate of his over
lord. At the head of the complex sys-
TEN stood the Mikado, whose word
was law. When that word went forth,
to disobey was not only a civil and
political crime, but a moral offense of
the blacklist, and a sin against divin-
ity. Ages of this form of govern
ment made the Japanese nation the
most docile and tractable people on
earth where their own authorities
were concerned.
So when the statesmen at the helm
used the imperial rescript to back ur
a scheme for railways, the nation
swallowed its objections and built
railways. In the same spirit, it ac-
cepted all the new things. The creed
of loyalty had robbed it of the privi-
lege of protest, by making that pro-
test a sin. Even so to-day, the creed
of loyalty makes it a sin to tamper
with things so mundane as plans for
dreadnaughts and half a dozen new
army divisions. The late Emperor
gave them his approval. There is no
more to be said.
Another side of the creed of loyalty
is the exaggerated national pride that
degenerates into national self-con-
seriousness. All casual observations of
Japan must be discounted by remem-
bering that the island Umpire is prob
ably Showing Off" Japan is worried
about what the world thinks of her,
to an extent that it is hard for an
American to appreciate. We would
like to have the world think we'll of
US, but if the world car not see the
manifold virtues of these United
States of America, then so much the
worse for the world. Not so Japan.
She is determined to appear before
the nations in the best possible light.
and to that end she conducts press
campaigns, grants great subsidies to
her enterprises, covers up her real in
dustrial conditions and her industrial
.inefflciency from the visitor, makes a
showing out of all proportion to her
real wealth and commercial import
'ance. This Japanese characteristic
could be passed owe with a smile, if it
were mere puerile vanity. But it is
deadly serious pride and Japan is
ready to fight it..
Japan gets great credit and ad-
miration from the thoughtless for her
industrial advance, that carried her
from the middle ages to the twentieth
century almost at a bound. This adj
vance is taken as evidence hat Jap
an can become an England of the
Orient, a great factory for eastern
Asia. Japan herself cherishes and en-
courages the illusion in characters
tic fashion. 1t is no more than an IL
fusion. Japan might become the Eng
land of the Orient if there were no
England, and no America of the Oc-
cident. In straight, free competition
with the West Japan stands hardly a

S. c. WHITE %ORPINGTONS

The S. c. White Orpington was the
second variety of this famous English
a~ll-purpose FOWL to be originated. The
late William Cook, who originated and
exploited all varieties of the Orping-
tons, began on the S. C. White variety
about 1880. They were a combina-
ton of S. C. White Leghorn, Hamburg
and White Dorking blood, and after
much effort and selection they were
finally introduced to the public about
1889. They had large sales in all coun-
tries, and were introduced into the
United States after the Blacks and
Bluffs. AL 1.-The Orpingtons were slow
to take with the American fanciers
until Mr.. Cook himself came to the
New York Show with several birds on
a lecturing campaign. Many bought
and the craze for Orpingtons soon
spread. His successive visits and his
establishment of a farm in New Jersey
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1916-08-19

added to the rapidly spreading interest
in the variety. The s.. c. Whites were
probably advertised and exploited
more thar all the other varieties COM
bined and they soon became leaders.
The Single Comb White Orpington
is a large fowl. They have large
combs, white bills. legs. feet and skin
and of course white piumage. The
latter was the most dif1cult feature,
since the males almost all showed a
little brassiness.
The White Orpington has a reputa-
ton for being a splendid layer. They
lay tinted eggs, and like the American
general purpose fowls, will become
broCdy, sit, hatch and rear chicks. The
chicks develop rapidly, making splen-
did table poultry from broiler size on
up to maturity. At the latter time
they weigh from Sh to 10 pounds for
the males and Z to s pounds for the
females.

The most outstanding feature
OF the Irish uprising is the utter
hopelessness OF it. Almost be-
lore the sound Of the first shots

physical courage to rise in an eff
fort OF throw on the century old
yoke of bondage, find themselves
hedge about with the staring
muzzles of machine guns while

success might yet remain. And
in the background looms the gal
lows and an ignoble death for
every mothers son of them on

1t is sorry answer to the heart

right to liberty.
And, 10 add to the pathos of it,
is the certainty that henceforth

the hand of an implacable foe was

Regardless of the fact that the

LIBERTY LIGHTED ON
SIGNAL OF PRESIDENT

New York, Dec. with ceremonies
participated in by President Wilson,
for America, and Ambassador Jusser
and for France, Bartholdi's famous
Statue of Liberty was given a new
impressiveness tonight through the in
stallation of. a system of lights that
make the famous bronze figure in New
York harbor stand out even more beau
tiful by night than by day.
The booming of big guns in the pres
idential salute, the darting through the
sky of an illuminated aeroplane pill
oted by Miss Ruth Law, and the rays
of the worlds most powerful search
light sweeping the bay as the presi-
dents yacht and its conveys came to
rest near the base of the statue lent
thrills to the occasion.
PRESIDENT GIVES SIGNAL.
The president gave the signal for
the turning on of the light The flood
of illumination came at the conclusion
of this wireless message, from the
Mayflower, on which he stood
II light this statue with the thought
that 1t may always stand as a symbol
of our purpose to throw upon liberty
out of our own life as a nation, a light
which shall reveal its dignity, it's sin
cere power, its benignant hope and
spirit of guidance"
A great sustained cheer burst from
throngs that packed the Battery and
the streets emptying into Bowling
Green, as Liberty suddenly stood forth
clear and bright against the darkness
Of the outer harbor.
