SUNNERTON NEWS NOTES

During the last week it seems that
we had q thousand and one things in
our mind to write about, none of
which would raise the price of cotton,
3 or loosen up any "kale" now "salted
\ down." However we will leave off the
:, thousands and for the benefit Of the
readers of the Times we will use the
one which is a letter rom Prof. N.
Gist Gee who is now in Japan which
relates some of his experiences and
some of the things that take place
among the Japanese people.
With Mr.. Gee In Japan
We drove up in car (Ford) and
went through q, low entrance to a
rather muddy court where shoes were
lined up several rows deep. AS we
me) some one announced our arrival
!, and all thronged the restaurant the
maids echoed back in Japanese, "Wel-
come" 1t is common custom as
each guest enters.
The barefoot coolie took our shoes
and gave us a small board with a
number on it and this serves as a
check to keep shoes straight We then
entered in our stocking feet. We were
met and bowed up the steps, into a
room the floor of which was covered
with padded mating. The light pap
er covered doors were pushed aside,
then closed and we were shut into a
small room with an outlook over a
a small open court in which a fountain
played and through which beautiful
clear stream ran down noisily over a
strong rapid. Although the court
was only twenty feet square, there
A were several green trees and stone
many touches of real artistic kind
in these places and when described
one often gets the idea that this is
true of all Japan. The homes in be-
hind the small unsightly shops along
the street front are anything but ar
a tistic. On the wall were posted
several long strips of paper with the
! peculiar Japanese shorthand and a
\ few Chinese characters here and there
3among them. My companions scanned
these as the maid came to the door
| with square sofa pillows for us to sit
ron. She kneeled, bowed. got up, adj
vanced, bowed again after kneeling
and l:laccd the three pillows in posi-
: tion ana we sat down on, our feet
folded under us. The bowling done
by our maid was carried to an extreme
'.,stad she was very good at it-she
came to the outside of the door, kneel-
ed and bowed low then entered and
repeated the performance, then she
advanced to us and repeated the bow
the third time. This carried it fur
ther than I ever yet witnessed in a
restaurant. Our order given, little
tray with small braZier bearing
live coal is placed before us and my
companions produced their govern
,gHcnt monopoly cigarettes and smoked
away until the first course arrived.
Both OF them smoked necessarily as
we waited to see the people upon
whom we call and it seems to them
AAa good way to kill time.
The first course alrived-a small
black lacquered tray about one foot
by nine inches with small saucer
Z, containing two kinds of thinly sliced
94aw fish, bit of ground horse radish,
7home very hot green pepper, topping
,this off, and small bit Of chrysanthc-
mum petals picked, on the tray be-
ssidc this attractive dish is a small
diamond shaped dish with salty bean
"sauce in it. Chop-sticks are also on

JESUP BANK CASES
MAY NOT Be TRIED
The Official Order Transferring
the Case From Wayne to
GIynn Superior Court Has Not
Yet Been Received, and Trial
May be Postponed Until De-
cember Term.

While the defendants in the crimi-
nal cases growing out of the failure of
the Jesup Banking Company, at Jesup,
have been granted a change of. venue
from Wayne to Glynn superior court,
the official order transferring the cas-
es to this county has not yet been re-
ceived by Clerk H. F. duBignon, and
it is said that it is possible that trial
Of the cases will not be taken UP at
this term of the. court, now in session
Unless the order is received in the
next day or SO it will be almost i'm
possible to, try the cases at this term,
which will make it necessary to post
pone the trial until December. How
ever, the order is expected to arrive
at any time, and it is possible that the
trial will be taken un in the next few
days. N
Former officials of the bank have
been indicted on charges of misuse OF
funds, thereby bringing about its fail
ure, and the case sis one of the most
interesting criminal, proceedings insti-
tuted in Wayne, county in years. There
is also considerable interest inSthe cas-
es in Brunswick; and if the trial is talk
en- up at this term it will bring a
great many people from Jesup and
other parts Of Wayne county here to
attend.
The defendants were grantedssa
change of venue to Glynn county
largely because OF. the fact that it
would have been almost an impossible
ity to secure a jury in Wayne county,
on account, of so many of the people
of the county being directly or indi-'
rectly interested in the defunct bank.
