Selah! The Japa —Her Courtship. FTHR they are years old, the boys and girls should not be in the same room.” It is the saying of Coffuctus, the Chinese sage, and this saying had been strictly followed in Japan until the Day of the Restoration, some forty-five years ago. Even at present the habit of many centuries of keeping boys and girls apart is strong- ly in evidence, and although nobody prohibits them to meet, nobody en- courages them to make each other's acquaintance, And as there are few balis, parties and receptions, the boys and girls have small chance of betng introduced to one another, ‘This greatly handicaps the girls in meeting boys and In having the op- portunity of ecoming friends with them, It i# still considered impertinent for any girl to ask a boy to call, though they know each other fairly well, Girls have only a very few boy friends, their boy friends mostly being friends of their families or friends of their brothers, Gtrls' opportunities of being courted by boys are very rare, and they could ances firt with their wooers openly. Japanese girls would never tell their love affairs even to the closest of their friends, The courting !s always done in secret. When the fact that she !s en- gaged to a young man is known, @ girl's parents will interfere and may prohibit the girl to continue the re- lation, ‘The social custom of Japan r,|oes not approve of such love. ‘With the ever-watching eyes of the parents around them all the time, and ‘T done what?" asked Gus. ‘Say that the severe rule against the courtship |of young people in the unwritten law Did I ask | company you for the three dollars and twenty | ¢ | | explained book of society, it 1s impossible for two lovers to meet often and still more diMcult for them to enjoy each other's secretly.

In these articles for The Evening World he tells the story of the Japanese girl and points out the startling differences between herself and her American sister, and girls are most excellent writers of love letters. Their dear thoughts are expressed tn poems and songs which they exchange, The best of the Japanese Mterature is found in love songs and love messages, But even letters do not have e safe road, as the parents of the girl watch the mall and although they would not open any of the letters addressed to thelr daughter, thelr watchful eyes {caution her not to risk anything by getting many letters, If the parents find anything suspicious about the letters, they will stop the communtca- tion between the lovers, 4t is nec sary for lovers find a safe way of communteatin and they somehow find a way; even though It may not be an easy and quick one, ‘The love between the Japanese youths and matdens ts carried on under dim- culty and at a great risk, as when their secret 1s found out, not only they will be kept apart, but the discovery would often bring them severe puntsh- ments either from their parents or from their schools (if they are still at school.) Disappointment in love is quite fre- quent among the Japanese young peo- ple, because the path of their love Is full. of difficulties; and the successful | marriage trom the school-day romance }is very rare, most of them being nipped jin the bud by the young people's parents.

In the feudal period elopements were frequent, because at that time the marriage between people of different classes was not permitted. And elope- ment was the only solution of the mat- ter, when two people of different clas were in love with each other, Not Know Some Things You May About Cheese \>ie LD you know cheese was the, Did you know that cheese ranke in first form for preserving milk| nutrition with other food products as for future use? follows; Did you know it ts thus probably the very oldest dairy |Cheese . product?
