Of Ml the Latin-American republics on the great South American continent Brazil alone has positively and active ly cast her lot with ours. She' alone of all the South American republics actually declared war against Ger* many. This step was taken not only on account of grievous or belligerent acts committed against the people of Brazil by Germany, but also because the people of Brazil, like ourselves, had declared themselves definitely and permanently opposed In principle to German practices and atrocities, and so Brazil distinctly stands with us as a champion of humanity and, therefore, our complete ally, materially and spir itually. Brazilian tradition has also considered the United States as her best friend among all the nations, ?nd now we are allies, and In the con structive future thwf togaltft !lff after the war the United States of Brazil and the United 8tates of America will Inevitably assume the leadership of the western world. It should be, In the meantime, not ?only the pleusure but the duty of every North American to learn all he can of this new comrade who Is to share our destiny ; of his personality and his temperament at work and at play. It will surprise many of us when we realize that we are not by any means flattered by comparison. * Brazilian Innately Courteous. When an American first sets foot on Brazilian soil he is immediately im pressed by the Brazilian's innate cour-'J tesy, evidenced on every side among all classes of . people without regard to "race, color or previous condition of servitude." Possibly one of the most conspicuous examples of this, at least one that is especially noticeable to a North American, is experienced in the use of public conveyances. In a, tram J car or. an omnibus one is absolutely ? astounded when he sees persons al ready seated making way for a new comer at a great personal Inconven ience, and again when the courtesy is acknowledged by the Action of the new arrival in tipping his hat and in a friehdly smile of good fellowship, In stead of the kick and scowl which are too frequently manifested In the street cars of our own large cities. Such incidents are not exceptions, but a rule, and extreme consideration is" shown on all occasions. It soon be comes contagious, and otce acquired or regenerated, one's good nature can not long be curtailed, and It Is no time before the stranger becomes fondly at tached to his affable Brazilian host. One cannot wander about the streets and shops even for a day before he re marks that nearly every one he meets can converse not only In Portuguese, the native language, but usually also In English or French. It Is the exception In a Brazilian family of even moderate circumstances when the members can not"" speak well and' correctly two or three languages^. How many Arae.rl cans of one's acquaintance can Intelli gently and freely Converse In any other tongue than. his native "American"! Then, too. the Brazilian shows much greater familiarity with and apprecia tion of the arts and literature of other nations than does his North American neighbor. The Brazilian truly recog nizes and estimates good art, whether In music, literature, painting or sculp ture, and the rentals, concerts and exhibitions are always well attended and conspicuous 'to North Americans because of the large Inclusion of the .poorer people in attendance oq such occasions. Possibly the best evidence, of this may be observed la the char acter of the audiences assembled at the moderate priced epera houses. - Opera Instead of Burlesque. Opera In Bras!! Is a national institu tion. Even the mediocre companies are ? well supported and during 'the season, which lasts for many weeks, aU opera houses are crowded. A,# In Italy, one may see and hear an excellent per formance for a trivial entrance fee, There are many of these lower priced opera houses in all the larger cities and they are patronised by the same class of people that In the Unlt?V States throng the vaudeville and bur lesque theaters. In the galleries one sees the most unfortunate specimens of humanity ; many are barefooted and 111 clad, but all seek diversion or dis traction by listening to the plaintive overtures of Verdi or Mascagnl. And such appluuse I A home run made by Benny Kauf with the bases full woiild not cause such a demonstration as a well rendered aria from "La Tosca" or "Alda" by a visiting Spanish or Italian prima donna. Whether ft is this aesthetic charac ter or an inherent delicacy, a pro nounced gentility Is noted In- the per \?onallty of the Brazilian. Highly sen sitive and sympathetic by nature, he Is also extremely generous and consid erate, and we should cultivate most assiduously the personal regard ol these most, delightful .people who are now offering us their national- friend ship. The Brazilian already sincerely ad mires nnd likes the North* American and, unfortunately, this feeling toward us Is not evidenced by the people ol any other Latin-American nation, at least not to such an extent as Is true In Brazil. This may partially be ex plained by the recollection that In Bra* zll our national policies and motive* have never been misunderstood nor Impugned, but, on the contrary, Brazil has In the past frequently championed our cause In Latin America when such action was exceedingly unpopular/ Clever In Mechanics. In a people possessed to a marked degree of such deep sympathy and fine eir\PtI.on8 asare the Brazilians one might ? not expect to fin^ mechanical genius as another national attribute. Yet not only la the Brazilian unusually clever in mechanical arts and sciences, but he Is extremely quickwitted, learns easily and la awlft to Improve upon any contrivance In Its adaption to local conditions. During the laat four years manjr suc cessful manufacturing 'Industries have been established In Brazil, many of which require practical skill and spe cially trained operators, and these have readily been, found among Brazilians. The municipality of Sao Paulo holds an annual Industrial exhibition, to which are admitted only articles manu factured by the "Paullstas," as the peo ple of the city of Sao Paulo are known throughout Brazil. The local products include various types of machinery, ar ticles of Iron and steel, brass and cop per; textiles, Including cotton, woolens and even a ' very superior quality of silk; clothing for both men and wo men ; haberdashery, shoes, hats, gloves, trunks, leather goods and a vast num 'ber of other creations requiring highly skilled operators, and Intricate ma chinery, all of which demonstrates the remarkable versatility of the Brazil ians. 8purlous 8tradlvarl. In the 64 years that Stradlvarius worked for himself he finished 2,000 violins, and left a number unfinished that were later turned out-by his sons. If you would take . a count of all the Americans who have violins bearing the great workman's name, and do a little figuring, you will discover that Mr. Stradlvarius and all his rela tions, In order to put out all the fid dles beating his tiame, must have had a fiddle foundry covering many acres, winning day and night for more year? than Stradlvarius lived. The varnish would have been made by the thou sands of gnllpps.
