Knickerbockers _attract attention when worn by American women in city strcets, yand bobbed hair is frowned on in some of our conserva- tive business and social circles. Yet the Siamese woman wears the knee- length panung, as does her brother, and for generations she has refused to be bothered with long hair. She has a freedom that has developed g shrewdness and independence in con? trast to most oriental women, though she is apt to e unfettered. i “The spirit of progress in Siam lies much_deeper than surface likenesses or acceptance of fads. No duress compelled her sovereign to convert a tract formerly used for cremating members of the royal family to a park for cricket, golf and foot ball playing. From this park in the Royal Palace runs a boulevard with three roadways, set apart by double rows of trees and flanked by shaded foot- paths—an avenue which would do credit to the plan of an American city. Nor are Bangkok's many im- provements due to foreign prorfiotion, for there are. fewer Europeans in Slam's capital than in almost any other eastern city of its importance. “Bangkok is & city of half a mil- lion inhabitants, the capital. metrop- olis and port city of Slam. The King- dom has an area about equal to that; of Spain and a population of some elght milllon. They Pickle Their Tea. “The high civilization of Bangkok | has a contrast in extreme primitive conditions of other parts of the coun- try. Curious customs abound. In Upper Siam tea is pickled for chew- Ing instead of being used as a bev- erage. First the leaves are sundried, then they are steamed to rid them of tannin. Next they are weighed down for fermentation—a process suggest- ive of the German preparation of sauerkraut. The substance thus formed is placed in the mouth until the juices are removed. The appear- ance of the individuals with the balls | in_their cheeks forms a never-ending source of amusement for travelers. “The capital of Upper Siam is Chleng-Mai, famous for its lacquer | ware and center of the teak tree trade. This region is a land of hoats. Water routes form virtually the only lines of communication between the upper and lower kingdory. “In eastern Siam a plateau and a plain support a population which must move from swamp lands in the rainy season to higher elevations, which are barren and stony. Hence living conditions are most primitive. | “Vemice of the East.” “Bangkok has been called the: “Venice of the East’ -~The Mena river is the great trading street Of the city. Floating houses do a ‘cash and carry’ business through win- dows opening toward the channel, where pass the shoppers in almost every conceivable sort of craft. These range from great steamships to the priests’ boats propelled by novitiates, and from the immense rice boats to the canoes which carry the postmen. | Then there are the river-going cafe- terias, serving residents of floating Bouses. These, tod, are canoes, equip- ped with tiny stoves. “Perhaps the most colorful river scene is the water market, where each tiny boat with its.cargo of food bears a little lamp. The market] hours are from midnight until early | morning. And during that period the | market sectlon of the river resembles = fairyland with its myriad glimmer- ing lights.” P e e “Following Jesus is hard in Washington.” B.
