They never did go in for settlements of their own, such as Chinatowns and the Little Ttalys of the Chinese and Italians. Perhaps it is this lack of clannish- ess, at least in their business and social liives, that accounts for their alertness and their ability to adapt themselves to whatever these days of changing situations bring v 'k B anese get It is reported that an agecement| IM N':l)‘] Y"'.kl ‘(’f," [“n:)\, e ,,LH\ has been reached between unions |3Pout: 4 Dt ik e involved and the grocery stores of |YOU G0 MmO se¢ at 'e4Sh four at the first nights or in the better restaurants. Irrespective of your personal sympathies in the cur- rent Japanese-Chinese war, you must admit that the casual Japan- ese, when you meet him on the street, is a livelier companion and a more intelligent (at least to strangers) conversationalist than the average Chinese. Ask a Chinese how to get to 38th and Fifth and you will probably receive a shrug. Ask a Japanese and he will say, “Go right down to the next corner and walk left three blocks.” The Japanese here have two news- papers—Nitibie Jihoo, which means the Japanese-American Review, and | the New York Shinpo, which means News. They have six churches, three Buddhist and three Christian, and they have- five schools, devoted mainly to teaching the correct use of the Japanese language to second generation Japanese, or those who were born in America As for their business pursuits, they write for the newspapers, they _limport raw silk and deal in gold fish, they own restaurants and wait tables. Look under the J's in the| Manhattan telephone directory and you will find a whole column of importers and exporters dealing in everything from toys (G-men badg- ! es for kids, etc.) to priceless porce- | lains and jade. | One interesting entry, at 1775 Broadway, is “The Japanese Army.” But that is only for buying — not‘ recruiting. {\ | Of all the Japanese in New York | perhaps the most important, at least politically, are Mr. Kazuo Nishi, the financial commissioner, and Mr. Ka- nae Waktuki, the Consul-General. Mr. Nishi’s authority stems straight from the treasury department, and the Consul-General, as you know, is the man with all the answers for all of the five to six thousand coun- | trymen in this city. ! While we Americans were getting ready to celebrate George Washing- | ton’s Birthday, the Japanese pre- pared to celebrate Kigen-setsu (Feb. | 11) and this year it was greater than ever. This is the birthday of the Empire, and on that day Japan was 2600 years old. Many other holidays are locally observed, such as the Em- peror’s birthday, April 29, and the Day for Boys, May 5th. | Socially, both the Hozai and the Nippon clubs play an important part in the lives of the New York Japan- ese. The Tozai, which means East and West, is for those children of | the Rising Sun who were born in| Japan and also those who were born | in America. But the Nippon club is more exclusive. You have to be born in Japan to get in here. } = ———— | ATTENTION MASONS A stated communication of Gas- | tineaux Lodge No. 124, F. and AM, March 5, 7:30 p.m., Masonic Tem- ! ple.

Besides this, a vast charitable program is car- ried on both within and without the ranks of the Moose. " But besides these humanitarian| activities, the fraternity has ways recognized the need for soc- al and business contact, and the spirit of good-fellowship that is apparent in the lives of most men and women. The Moose has an- swered this need in the lodge homes of nearly 2000 Moose lodges throughout the world In order to keep its fraternal,, social, and charitable activities on a lofty plane, the Moose requires | its members and prospective mem- | bers to measure up to a high stan- | dard.
