Berlin News HERBERT JOHNSON DESCRIBES JAPAN Speaks at Regular Meeting of Berlin Men's Bible Class MEASLES 1S SLACKENING HEtlAIIL Measles Epidemic Subsiding, Health Officer—Bowling League To get Under Way Soon—Commun- ity Dancing Class—Other Items, Three phases of Japanese life were dealt with by Herbert E. Johnson of New Britain in his talk on Japan to members of the Berlin Men's Bible cluss at the community houst last evening. They were, industrial life and religious life. Regarding the in- dustrial life, Mr. Johnson said that the Japanese have great ability and can grasp mechanical technicalities in a way comparable to the people of the United States. Many stories of extremely low wages are heard, the speaker went on. Low wages existed before the war, but at the present time workers are paid a fair sum. The lower class- es get 60 cents an hour, factory labor- ers $1.00 and skilled labor $2.00. Most of the raw material is im- ported. Very few minerals are found there. The greatest industry is the silk weaving. However, cotton and wool ranks high and the mills are modern in every detail. Regarding the social side of Japa- nese life Mr. Johnson said that the caste Iine is strictly drawn. These are four classes, the lower class, the coolle who are muscle of the country, the midgee class and the upper class. Marriage Custom The Amrriage custom among the upper classes was described. When a young man wishes to be married his parents hire an intermediary looks around among other families of the same social standing and, finding Says a girl who desires to marry, arranges bowling league wlll get the contract with her; family. Some- times the two young people never see [ night being the time set for a mee each other until the day of the wed- |ing.

This is for the accommodation of foreign guests and the featurc is found in higher class houses. Mr. Johnson also vividly described the gardens and beautiful flowers of that country. Regarding religion, the speaker said that Christianity is making an im- pression on the country and is help- ing to break down the il feeling be- tween the classes. Mr. Johnson formerly was manager of the Stanley Works plant in Kobe, Japan, and is well-versed on Japanese subjects. Abont 30°members of the class were present.

Griswold, local health officer, who says: “The epidemic of measies has largely subsided and there are now not more than ten cases under quar- antine in the whole town. There is but one case of diphtheria undér ob- servation and that is nearly well. “Without doubt, many cases of measles occurred which have not been under the care of a doctor and not reported to the health officer.” Dancing Class. The Worthington Community cen- ter now has a dancing class which meets every Saturday evening. This class was started November 11 and until the holiday, had a good atten- dance each week. [Lately the atten- dance has fallen off. The class is open to everyone and officers of the association are in hopes that sufticient interest will be taken in the future to make its continuance possible. Professor Graham of New RBritain is in charge of the class which is held in the community house. Refresh- ments are served by ladies of the community each Saturday evening.
