Contrasts between the customs of Korea and those of other countries are striking everywhere. For In­ stance, In most countries snakes are more or less feared by everyone and are never liked about the house. They are certainly unpopular with persons who are habitual and intemperate users of alcoholic beverages. In Korea snakes live about the eaves of native houses and are not feared or disliked The native legend about their Intro­ duction Into the country Is that a cer­ tain prince who was a drunkard or­ dered a shipload of them from India to be brought to the palace to drive away the evil spirits of drink that possessed him.

In Korea a lady in distress may operate a saloon without fear of any social stigma resting upon her.

A woman of social distinction may make shoes provided she makes such as the com­ mon people wear. To make shoes for her own class would remove her from that class.
