BUDDHISTS HOLD SPOT HOLY
Famous Pagoda, Built by Hermit, Has
Long Been Visited by Throngs
of Pious Pilgrims.

Sightseeing in Burma is apt to be
one pagoda after another, and at that
the tourist misses most of them. One
that he usually does not see unless he
is especially energetic, or has an in
satiable taste for pagodas, is the
Kyaik-hto-yo pagoda, one of the most
holy spots in Burma in the eyes of
the Buddhist Burmese.
The Burmese say that the builder Of
this pagoda was a hermit, a theory
which seems probable enough, for it
is built on the top Of a steep hill in
a location which could appeal only to
one of solitary inclination. Even the
crest of the hill must have been too
close to the world for the holy man,
for he located his shrine on a huge
bowlder, which may have been steady
enough in his day, but which now
seems ready at any time to slip off
into the valley several thousand feet
below.
Assured by the Burmese guide that
the rock has rested at this critical
angle for many centuries, the visitor,
dlT0dUy DT6dI1l6SS lIOln lAG IGChlGSS
ascent of a Burmese hill, climbs a
swaying bamboo ladder to view better
the old pagoda. The great rock, with
its shrine forming a tiny pointed cap,
seems even more unsteady from here,
but the guide feels no uneasiness. He
is confident that somewhere below
the pagoda is a lock of Buddha's hair,
and this alone stays the bowlder from
its fall.
In the early spring pilgrims from all
over Burma journey to this forsaken
spot to place flowers or the rock and
offer their prayers and gifts. Jewels
and other offerings are tossed with an
invocation to Buddha into the chasm
below the rock. AS they leave, they
place lighted candles outside the
shrine and, as they cross the plain in
the evening they can still see tiny
points of faTe marking the sacred
spot for other pilgrims who may fol-
low them.-Chlcago News.

his farm in Maryland, Saturday
night. Everybody to leave Anacostia

hunters are getting ready for the
festivities. Rabbit and quail hunt

BILL MOONEY, veteran hunter

dogs for days.

DAN EDELIN,, who has a farm IN
Prince Georges county, not far
from Commissioner Gardiner's farm,
is inviting his friends to coon
hunt. CHARLES KING owns the
dogs, and he vows that his dogs are
the best in the world.
Authorities agree that BILL
MOONEY is a dead shot with ducks
and other game. He sends to friends
many ducks. II there is q scarcity

knows much about the history of
an annual 'posSum hunting party
that started the hunt near Cabin
John and wound up at the Anglers

In this column several occasions the attention OF

Army Ofneer's wife Writes.
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
It seems to me that everybody
in Washington Is having their
fling at the Roman Matron," so I,
after reading q lot of the bouquets
bestowed upon her, cannot help
but feel that I must have my
say-so too.
should just like to picture our
friend the Roman Matron going
through what I have during my
six months here in Washington,
D. C. After that time don't
think she would have much to ray
with regard to war workers. I
came here just six months ago to
do my bit and every single day
1t takes almost a superhumGn ef-
fort to stay just that one day out.
And then at that can't help hut
think OF some of the girls who
have It just so much worse than
do. at least have a large enough
room to myself. but believe me I
pay for IL. On top OF paying the
whole sum of $500 for a mere
room, I have been obliged to fur
nish clean bed-clothing. etc.
am an army officers wife and
want you to know that came
here for patriotic motives only.
And another thing can't help but
tell you is just this. that am not
near as patriotic as when 1 first
landed in Washington. d. c. II it
were not for the fact the people
back home would think me a first-
class Stacker IL / were to wend my
way homeward I would long ere
this have started. They couldn't
begin to realize or believe Just
how awful some OF the Washing
ton people are to some OF the girls
who have come here to do war
work.
wish to inform you of the fact
that l have two brothers in the
service who are overseas, another
in the service here in this coun-
try and along with that a perfect
ly good husband somewhere over
there too. After he had gone 1
couldn't think OF better thing to
do than to come to Washington to
do war work. Here I am, and IL
can I'll stick 1t out until they
all come home, but you can take It
from me life in Washington isn't
exactly what one would call a bed
OF roses"
Please don't think that I don't
think that somewhere In Washing
ton there are pleople who are
really good. and are nice to We
all. but when people like the Ro-
man Matron try TO rub Il in on
girls who arsn't really ali to
blame, l had to tell my story, too.

Fairfax Writes Problems Pitfalls of the War Workers
Especially for Washington Women

I I ow can one know whether
n ones love is real?
What are the tests to
which one should subject one
self?
Being able to display many Of
the most celebrated symptoms
doesn't prove by any means that
these are inspired by genuine love.
1t may be just a case of being
lonely, or being flattered, or be-
ing sorry for somebody. It's
highly important, but sometimes
far from easy, to be able to de-
termine whether ones deliciously
terrible malady is love or near
love.
A nineteen-year-old girl who
wants help in diagnosing her own
case has written me an uncom-
monty sincere and interesting let
ter. She asks:
The Eternal Question.
what is Love? l know it is a
hard question to answer, but I
have never been able to discover
it. Sometimes l think / love one
young man, who is a travelling
salesman, but very quiet, and after
he is away for several weeks l
don't miss him. Then when he is
home wonder what is wrong with
me, for / feel that / could never
let him go away again.
81 suppose / am too young to
know what it is. But so many
of my girl friends are getting
married now and their husbands
leaving for Over There, and how
do they know what love is on short
acquaintance? / know this man
for many years, and he says, too,
that when he is away the first
couple Of weeks he misses me ter
ribly, but it wears off gradually,
and then when he is home he
doesn't see how he could go away
again. Is this the selfish part of
humanity, or is it so with every
one
To me it doesn't seem a mystic
rious case, that of this extremely
nice young girl and her quiet"
lover. They are more or less alike
in temperament, they are the best
Of friends, and their friendship
isn't mRrred by misunderstanding
or disagreement.
As to whether this is love or not,
think Miss "Inquisitive, as she
calls herself, has already applied
the test.
Separation the Test.
There can't be a better test than
separation. And it's a test that
the love OF these young people
doesn't stand. With the most
friendly and wholesome frankness
they admit 1t to each other.
For a few weeks they are lonely,
even painfully so. The pleasant
habits Of companionship have been
interrupted, q familiar friendly
presence Is lacking.
But ss the days pass the gap
The Washington times., 1918-11-06

gradually" It becomes fiereer
and more intense. It gives lovers
extraordinary experiences. 1t
drives them to extraordinary ae-
tions. Tney cross worlds to look
upon each others faces They
write poems that live for centuries.
They are quite likely to be looked
upon as madmen. And all be-
cause they are in the driving grasp
of love.
You will see from this that love
isn't a pretty plaything, but a
disturbing, tormenting force. "In-
quisitive" would scarcely be the
tranquil and contented girl she is
if she and her excellent friend
were truly in love with each
other. Some day she will doubt
less find this out for herself. And
then perhaps she will look back
almost with envy on this present
period of serene companionship.
It's perfectly true, of course,
that many people-of whom l
don't think "Inquisitive" is one
complete long and happy lives
without ever knowing anything
more wild and sweet and dan
gerous than near-love. Perhaps
this may prove to be the case
with some Of the young girls this
letter refers to, who marry after
an acquaintance so brief that it
hardly seems as if real love could
have had time to take root.
But they are the people who
never concern themselves as to
whether their love is real or mere
ly a cheerful imitation. And it

steadily closes. In a month each
OF them is contented again. They
don't even pretend to themselves
that they are miserable. They ad-
nit wonderingly that at the end
Of this brief period they don't suf-
fer at all, and they would like to
be told why It is that they can be
so cheerful.
The reason is, Of course, that
they are not in love. Absence, sep
aration, distance-these are words
that love doesn't recognize.
The quiet, happy friendship that
"Inquisltive" describe lacks the
touch of magic that would convert
it into love.
For the most prosy, practical"
people in the world acquire a new
facility when they fall in love.
They develop imagination. While
love lasts they are not only the
subjects Of a lovers wizardry, but
they are themselves wizards.
Space and time, light and dark
ness, autumn and spring, no long
er exist for them. They live with

world of their own making, and
they don't clearly perceive any
other human beings except the
chosen One.
Loves Magic Gift.
The Chosen One, they are, how
ever, vividly conscious of, even if
he or she is a thousand miles
away, and remains there for
months or years at a time. That's
one of the magic gifts of love.
And this consciousness of the
absent lover doesn't "wear off
