THE DEVELOPMENT OF JAPAN
By Kenneth Scott Latourette. Ne,
York: The Macmillan Company.

The quality that steps out to meet
one from every chapter Of Prof.
Latourette's study Of Japan is the
writer's own enthusiastic admiration
Of the japanese. The astonishing
progress of that nation within the
past half-hundred years has seized
upon his Imagination, animating with
full-hearted sympathy this survey Of
the development of Japan. The study
is, in the main, review Of the
progress of Japan since, with the
advent of Perry in 1858. it has be-
come more and more accessible to
external agencies and influences. In
authoritative detair the writer an
alyzes the forty years of internal
Transformation that took place in the
islands after 1859. It is this remark
able period Of readjustment that
brings out markedly the flexible and
far-seeing mental attributes Of the
japanese. To this period the writer
gives painstaking attention. Beyond

A Little Patriot

Last year when Charles Reed
was confined to his bed, the ed.
itor sent him a little token of
remembrance in the shape of an
all wool bunting flag in fast col.
o's which some friends of the
little sufferer offered to put on a
pole for him, He accepted their
proffered kindness and directed
them to put up the pole so he
could see the stars and stripes
from his window when lying in
bed and this was done. The
pole having become unsafe it
was taken down recently and he
is now preparing to put another
up that Old Glory may float
again at the Reed Homestead.

Henderson School Teacher Re-
fuses Gifts For Any Cam

Henderson, KY, June Is. -
For her refusal to contribute to
war activities, Miss Beulah
Green, teacher in the public
school of Henderson county and
a member of a religions sect
known as Christidelphians, was
refused a re-appointment as tea
cher by the county board of ed.
ucatiOn Saturday.
Miss Green declared she had
conscientious religious scruples
against war in any form. She
flatly refused TO donate to the
American Red Cross, buy thrift
stamps or subscribe to any of
the war activities, stating that
her religious principles forbade
her from aiding her country in
its war program.
During her five years as a
teacher in the county schools
Miss Green made a splendid rec
ord as a teacher.
Christadelphians are known as
a religious sect. They are also
called Thomasites and were
founded in the United States in
1850 by John Thomas, a physi-
clan. The words composing the
name are taken from the Greek
and mean Brothers Of Christ.
The members of the sect reject
the Trinity and the natural i'm.
mortality of the soul, believing
that the righteous only receive
eternal life. They believe also
in the proximate personal com.
ing of Christ and lay stress up.
on the cleansing influence of
the Holy Spirit and the divine
word of God. The sect practices
baptism by immersion and hat
no ordained ministers. Believ.
ing in the absolute brotherhood
of man. its members are opposed
to war in any form.
