LITTLE JAPAN
It is the habit to think ami
spouk of Japan as "lit le Japan."
This in one smse is not. an
error; as compared with China,
RtiBaia, the United Slates or tho
British Empire) geogiaphically,
Japan is little and in population
by the side- of these great do
minions she is small. But the
difference between J ami
either of the dominions named
it is all heart end soul Japan, a
unit in feeling, purpose, ambit
