It Is 10 be related that in the vicinity,
practically in the same compound, one
OF the most truly beautiful statues Of
Japan Is to be seen. This Is the flgure

admired by millions through the GEN.
turies. 1t Is the chief treasure of Chugu-
il, a nunnery, founded by Prince Shotoku
IN memory Of his mother. The structure
In which 1t Is housed is unpretentious,
rather like modern Japanese villa Of
small size. One must approach the
place reverently and respectfully and
ask Tor permission to enter, which Is
graclously given. Then an attendant
precedes the visitor, by back way while
the visitor goes the Iront way, to the
pavilion OF the Kannon, where he re-
moves his shoes and enters.
1t is great pity that so beautiful a
work of art. whether object Of reverence
or not, should be so inadequately
lighted. The figure Is wooden sculp-
ture, about life size, sitting within a
very restricted space, sheltered behind
a series OF folding panels, which, when
opened, admit few rays Of light. The
sculpture Is black as ebony. It repre-
sents a sitting woman, with one hand
supporting her chin, in an attitude Of
the deepest thought. A faint smile
hghtens the countenance The figure
is wholly nude, above the waist, and it
is delicate and chaste beyond words.

gone so far In order to witness a tri-
umph OF sculpture. Yet this Is but one

NARA, Japan, May 81, 1929.
Contrast between Nara and Nikko is
inevitable In the case of one who has
recently been at the latter place and
is new viewing the ancient art of the
former. Yesterday we were whirled
through the centuries which Nara rep
resents, in the usual hurried manner,
and out Of somewhat confused COM
plex of impressions comes the feeling
that Nikko Is decidedly the new and,
while more resplendent. not quite so
expressive of the old Japan 1 shall
not pause to verify that impression out
of any OF the numerous guide books and
pamphlets with which we have been
favored. 1t must stand as a passing
feeling
Indeed, so quickly are we passing In
review OF Japarl's wonders of antiquity
and art that we simply cannot do more
than register reactions. All the history
of this has been carefully written. The
modern visitor makes not the slightest
difference with the facts And it is
fact, decided, positive and tangible, that
meets one at such a place as Nara and
at Nikko
Here are immense temples and
shrines housing the greatest of treas
ures of art and reverence. We are told
that some of these at Nara are COM
paratively new structures, having re-
placed others that have been destroyed
in the past. mostly by fire. The other
day at Yamada, as I have told, we saw
two shrines that are completely rebuilt
every 20 years, in keeping with an an

of rare beauty Of symbolism, real poetry
of expression.
One of those tales related yesterday
as We went on from KaSuga Wakamiya,
one of the smaller Shinto shrines ap-
preached through seemingly endless
avenue Of stone lanterns. We had just
witnessed "Kagura," an ancient sacred
dance, performed on a special moor that
has been trod by the feet Of countless
generations OF dancers Four girls, clad
in white yestments with red divided
skirts, had gone through the motions Of
this symbolic spectacle to the notes Of
an orchestral accompaniment accented
by sharp claps made by two sticks in
the hands of leader. There were
several slow. measured and beautifully
graceful motions by the four girls, more
a march and countermarch than a
dance Then suddenly it was over, after
the manipulation OF cleaning golden
ritualistic implements. and we went
us the tale:
"One day the sun goddess, displeased
by the rudeness of her brother, hid her
self in a cave, and the darkness fell
upon the earth. The members Of the
family of the goddess, much troubled
with this circumstance, met before the
cave and had the Kagura dance per-
formed to entice the goddess out OF the
cave. On hearing the music she opened
the door a little way to have a peep.
Thereupon the god Of strength saw his
chance and at once forced the door full
open, to I'LL the world with light again"

the cultural lore of Japan. They ap-

slrines, to elaborate and gorgeous tenn

Of countless objects Of almost equal

A Delightful Ride.
During the morning, before lunch, we
were driven up a mountain by q road
that has just lately been completed, q
winding route between giant cryptic
meriaS, q dream of sylvan loveliness.
This road Is not used by the general
public, being reserved for special guests
of Nara. We felt highly privileged to
have this marvellous drive.
OF course, we had read and heard
about the deer of Nara. So the night
we came we we're not surprised to see
one of these animals trotting along the
main street in the light of our motor
lamps. Yesterday morning as I sat
writing In my room I happened to
glance out Of the window and saw to
my delight half a hundred deer passing
over the bridge across the little lake
just below the hotel. But more deer
were yet to come into view in a short
time.
One of the FIRST items on the program
was visit to the deer park, where, after
we had been seated in an attractive
municipal pavilion, a bugle was blown
and the deer came trooping, by tens, by
scores, by hundreds, 1t seemed. Bucks
with horns still in the velvet, does,
fawns, they came trotting over the grass,
eager for the potatoes that had been
streWn on the ground, and for the little
cookies we were later given to feed
them. Gentle and tame and confiding,
they allowed us to fondle them freely,

The dim interiors do not make good
museums. The light is poor for dis

are not museums, though there Is one
close at hand in which treasures of the

are places OF worship, and the tens of
