C0REAN BOY NATURES EARLY
Youngster May Be Married at Age Of
Seven, According to Custom
of the Country.

Any time after Corean boy is seven
he may be married, and he is seldom
still unengaged at II or ID. At that
time he winds his pigtail-if he still
wears one in these crop-headed days
into a topknot and swaggers bit
in the presence Of the unbetrothed.
Formerly, if a Corean boy had any
schooling at all he squatted all day
on the schoolroom floor, learning to
read and write, but not to speak
Chinese, and he would have thought
himself we'll educated if he acquired
a vague knowledge Of the maxims Of
Confucius He often felt content to
carry "jiggy" or to drive a pack
pony or even to act as nurse to the
baby while his older brother wrestled
with the Chinese classics. Under
the new regime the school hours are
still long and strenuous, but the boys
pursue a Japanese course Of study
in Japanese. They probably would
vote their games more interesting than
any curriculum whatsoever. Their ma
tional sport is stone-fghting, which
they carry on during the first fifteen
days of the New Year. At the same
season they have sky tournaments, in
which they cut the string of one an
others kites and take the falling kites
as prizes-Marietta Neff in Asia
