The question would have had easy answer before the Spanish American wap opened western eyes. We had supposed that because we had taught the Japanese all they knew respecting modern science and tnvention these “imita tors" had nothing worth We have discovered that they can teach us some things in the realm of spirit For instance— Our pert paragraphers have long poked fun at the so-called “ancestor worship” of the Japan We have had small under- standing of what that “worship” means. It is not mere worship of Ancestors, It Is worship of the race, It comprehends posterity Well as ancestry. It is recognition of the solidarity of the race Westerners run to {ndividualism, They are selfish even in their altruism, They langh at the thought of any generation of their @Tandfathers or any worry over the generations of the future, The Japanese, on the other hand, t the spirit of race Patriotism that they deem it the greatest glory to venerate the hort tage of the fathers and to die, if need be, for the good of the com ing generations. Such altruism is almost inconceivable to the western mind. But the westerner can understand the practical out-working of such a spirit. He can appreciate the value of such ideals when they are written out in great victories on land and sea. Let us learn the lesson. espectal study. as ve so cultivated Because of our intense individualism selfishness and graft per- Meate our society.
