HAVE NEW IDEA OF MARRIAGE
Public Discussion of the Subject in
the Japanese Press Is Regarded
as Significant.
A series of articles on love and mar
riage Is appearing In Japanese ? news
papers and magazines, as a sign of the
modern "tendencies of the Japanese
mentality. Professors in psychology,
school teachers and writers of note are
prominent in the discussion on reform
ing t lie old matrimonial system, all
advocating more freedom for personal
choi?%.
According to tin* old custom, the par
ents chose bride and bridegroom and
the marriage was performed without
the Interested parties having known
each other. Marriage was considered
a duty towards country and family,
the religion of ancestor worship be-,
lng Its principle. The young couples
lived with the parents and the bride
owed complete obedience to her
mother-in-law.
The custom Is now prevalent for the
young people to meet long before the
marriage takes place so that they may
know each other, and to live apart
from the family is no longer con
sidered undutiful. Yet, of late, the
tendency appeared to marry for love's
sake and out of personal choice. This
new and romantic ideal is so strong
that all means are tried to obtain lt,
entaillnK elopements. suicides and
notorious family dissensions. Hence
the discussion for greater liberty and
more social life, which are quite op
posed to the old social system of
Confucius, that men and women should
keep apart and marry for duty's sake
MUd not for love.
Hard Namas to Pronounce.
The new frontier which has .been
drawn up In Upper Silesia will affect
the place names o/ a number of cit
ies more or less* familiar to the Amer
ican public. Of the larger cities, Ilatl
bor (Rflclborz In Polish), (Jlelwltz, (Gll
wlce) and Heuthen (Bytom) will re
tain their present German names. On
the Polish Hide the place names of
towitK which, while they have all
along been known to the Poles by
their original I'ollsh names, have for
the last two centuries ofllclnlly borne
German name*, will now revert to the
Polish forms Thus Konlgshutte again
in Huta Krolewska, Kattowlt/. again
becomes Katowice. Pless is changed
back to Psjscyyna. Tarnowltz will
hkhIh be Tarnowsklo ( lory. and once
more Lubllnltr. will be known a* Lub
llnlec. Th*5 place ijniue of Kybnik will
remain unchanged, the Polish and (?er
man forms being identical.
Flirtatious Island*.
French grammar Is right, for once,
when It designates Islands as feminine;
many of them appear and disappear
like a face behind a fan, and have
to be wo??ed fervently before they are

of <dd Austria this was dramatic. Im

to separate them. Once separated, the

DELIGHTS OF LIFE IN LONDON
Fog Frequently So Thick That the
Strongest Artificial Light
Cannot Pierce |t. ^
The worst fog In 20 years was ex
perienced In London when OOO.tXK)
tons of so??t were suspended In the at
mosphere In which 7,<MX),(M)0 people at
tempted to live, work, and worst of
nil. to get about, a short time aero.
The possibility of reaching one's
destination was ascertained only by
tlx* laws of probability and chance.
Fire engines called by i duty went
through the pitch-black streets pre
coded by m man on foot with u lan
tern. Busies adopted the lesson of the
wit'-roit trains that crossed the Western
plains during the gold rush and trav
eled In convoys of nine or ten, also led
by a iflki ii on foot wHh a light. The
busy traffic centers were marked by
from four to ten huge acetylene
torclies which pierced the surround
ing darkness for not more than fifteen
feet. Accidents were Innumerable.
Prince Henry attempted to motor from
London to Whlttlebury for. av hunting
I engagement, ami alter narrowly es
enping two collisions then decided tp
?l>end the night at a halfway house.
A freakish incident occurred when
two women, jost within two squares of

whose misfortune made him Imper

Nigerian Products.
A Nigerian trade review shows that
goatskins used in making the. finest
hoots, go mainly to the American
market. Palm kernels from the south,
especially Yoruhaland, are extricated
from the shells by hand. Before the
war most of the kernels went to (Jer
many. whence In consequence Great
Britain had to Import a large propor
tion of the oil required for making
margarine. The export of palm ker
nels Is over 200,000 tons, while that
of palm oil Is over 100,000 tons. The
oil supplies work for men, as the ker
nels for women. It enters Into the
manufacture of soop and candles. The
value of the tin ore production is be
tween one and two mllMons sterling.
The distance of the tin fields from the
const l? a handicap to the trade. Hall
way expansion has made things easier,
the llgt.t railway to liakura, built for
the purpose, having proved most ser
viceable.
Old Man'i Marital Philosophy.
A ninety-year old bridegroom started
his sixth honeymoon walking part
way from Winona. Teun., to Cincin
nati. Ohio, with his twenty six-year-old
bride, as an example for other young
married couples. "Ninety is a lot
motv sensible age lo get married at
than nineteen. Ill-* n lot of them younji
snips du." lie said. "When n man Is
ninety he has good souse, so he don't
make mistakes. 1 started marryin'
when I was twenty thref. I'm aorta
getting used to It by now. When you
haven't bad more than one wife you
don't know anything." Mary Jane,
hi* wife, said It ?ns love at first slfthf.

"Well, sir,"' consoled the chauffeur.
