Foeslor, Uncoln, Nob.: My Dear Professor Fosslcr. One need never bo Hurprlaed at anything" jn tb 1b Bide of tho globo bocnuso so many unexpected thlngH happen that ill one'H time would be given to won dering what won coming next. We wore hardly Bottled In Peking In our homo boforo a requoHt came from Japan that I go to Nowchang to open tho Y. M. C. A. work among tho Jap anese Boldlers Btationod there and ho I camo November 6th, and will stay until January Int. In one respoct ut least tho work for tho Japanese 1h vory pleasant, namely, tho personal troatmont tho Y. M. C. A. secretary 1b receiving at tholr hands. Since coming hero I have boen official ly recognized by the authorities and treated moro as a government official than m a Y. M. C. A. Becretary. Of all tho pollto peoplo In tho world tho Japanese aro certainly In tho load. Sometimes It In amusing nud then nt other times cxcrutlatlng. You first, my dear Alfonso. After you, my dear Gaston," suroly must have originated in tho land of tho Rising Sun. I re cently attonded the birthday of a prominent merchant hero at which tho only lady present was his witc. After a Bumptous repast wc retired to tho drawing room and tho lady withdrew to another room wc were at tho ho tel. Presently tho lady returned and approached tho ompty chair which was standing botwoen two others occupied by gcntlomon. Sho would have mado it with no trouble to anyone had theBo two gallants not seen her unobtrusive ly ndvnnclng. Sho was a very modest llttlo lady, and rather shay. They knew this, but that made no differ ence; hero wafl an excellent oppon tunlty to show their gallantry, so up they popped, each man profusely apol ogizing for being seated In her pres ence and offering her his chair. There they stood, bowing aa only Japanese can, and each Insisting upon tho con fused lady accepting his chair. The other foreigner and myself could not refrain from laughing at theso two mon uelng nom at bay by one nine woman. Tho situation was all the more amusing because tho mon wcro old bacholora. Woll, after thoy had ex hausted their vocabulary of politeness, tho lady had her way (as usual) for sho took the float sho first started for and tho mon subdued and turnod tho conversation Into another channel. Nolthcr tho Japanese nor "the Chinese shako hands. Tholr manner of saluta tion and farewell 1b bowing and speak ing Bomo words of greeting or farewell as tho caso may be. In business both aro slow, but tho Japaneso fo at things with a vim as soon as tho Idea is thoroughly .planted,- while tho -Ohtatt-man goes around with an Important air, aa though ho was omniscient, and had a Ufo tlrao in which to accomplish this ono thing wfolch tho "forolgn dovil" had revealed to him. Both na tions are vory inqulsltlvo. but tho Japaneso Inquires thoroughly and min utoly, whllo tho Chinaman is moro llko a boy flvo years old tho sarao thing interests hima long time. Both peo ple havo a rea.dy way of Baying "job" to everything, but raroly understand you with ono tolling. To make uro of being understood, you must toll an English speaking Japanese tho samo thing at least three times, and a Chin aman soven or eight times, or until ho finally understands. It Is Impossi ble tQ .do official business with the Japanese without first taking tea. Tills is considered as Important ns offering a guest a scat. What about tho war? Why. tho Japanese aro glong to -win, of course. What then? I will not vojituroa, pro fiction. However, I think wc arc safe v,n saying that China will be more open to foroigners than ovor before for this reason, viz: that sho is looklug to Tapan for pointers, and Japan's policy la to ac8opt teaching from the western nations I may say that aJpan will llBtcn to any nation, but will accept only that which Bhc thinks is best. SJ10 Is fast breaking away from all supor atltion. I have been talking lately with ono of her greatest teachers of English who was conscripted and is a sergeant in tho transportation of fice at this place, and have been very much impressed with the possibilities of this rising aatlon.

I suppose that thoro are few per sons In America who can discusa or expound English grammar as can Ser geant J. Nagura. He can not speak rapidly, in English, but his grammar Is faultlosH. Speaking from an unselfish and so ciological point of view. Japan Is Just the nation to open China. Of couse, whether tho greed of the powors will rcrmlt this Ih another question. It will mean that the Asiatics aro ,goln; to enter commercial competition In earnest, that tho adventurers and grafl cr. who aro too unscrupulous to make new pastures. They are a disgrace to tboir country here, and many would doubtless bo behind prison bars were they whero Justlro could deal with them. Of courso there aro many ener getic and honest business men here, who would also find It moro congenial for the most part to look elsowhere for a profitable business; hut whether thlsvwould not be desirable for man kind as a whole, Is a question too big for mo.
