Miss Chase Speaks on Japan

MISS Laura Chase, who has, for
several years served as a missionary
in Japan. located at Toxic, and who
is visiting her people in America on a
one years leave, spoke Monday even
ing at the Highland avenue NJ. E.
church.
Her address was interesting in the
extreme. as she knew her subject,
Japan and Its People," thoroughly,
and Of consequence held the atten-
ton of her auditors closely.
Even as we, here in America, pride
ourselves on the slogan america
First" SO it is with the nations of
the Orient. who naturally place them
selves first. Miss Chase said that
the Japanese nation contained some
very lovable people and some quite
the reverse. The Japanese as a whole
are devoted to their children and will
do anything for them. They think
that Ele family without children are
subject for the deepest sympathy
They are a nation of stoics, conceal
ing alike from the public their joys
and their sorrows. They are cleanIy,
artistic and ambitious.
After description of the American
institutions in Japan and a statement
of the good that they were accom-
pllshing. she turned her attention to
Siberia. Korea and the western coast
OF the United States The imperial
government, she said is in the hands
of small militaristic group, who
came into prominence at the time of
the Russo Japanese war, many of
whom learned the military art in Ger
many and who profess the deepest
admiration for the German leaders.
They believe ardently in the divine
right of kings. The military policy of
the country she said, was all wrong
and should not be endured by the CT;
vilized world.
The students of the empire are get,
ting restless and the Christian spirit
OF justice and love is becoming more
and more wide spread and she be-
lleVes it to be simply a question. of
time before Japan will redeem herself
in the eyes Of civilization. She closed
with an appeal for funds for the
American Foreign Missionary School
at Toxic.

recent order. fom officials of the Maine
Cntal Railroad requiring engineers to
sound the whistle on all trains when
approaching curves and crossings,
which in this city is nuisance caus-
