Last week Bruno Lesslng wandered
through Tokyo gathering impressions
for his whimsical travel articles.
Bruno Uvea in Rome most of the year
but has such a falling for a particu
lar brand of Japanese beer that he
haa ten cases a month sent to his
villa in Italy. When he arrived in
Tokyo this particular brewery had his
hotel room decorated wUa banners
and placards advertising his favorite
brand and ten cases on ice were
ensconced In the bath tub.
One of the largest silk filatures In
Japan Is at Omlya In the suburbs of
Tokyo. The tourist bureau makes ar
rangements for your visit. In addi
tion to your astonishment In seeing
500 girls working at lightning speed
with almost lnvlsable threads, you
will be assailed by loud speakers
overhead blurting out your national
anthem. The office has the music of
38 nations but regrets that records of
the nalonal hymns of Iraq, Liberia
and Abyssinia are missing.
The Japanese are the world's most
modest people. They eat In private
and bathe In public! When you go
for dinner at a Japanese restaurant,
you are given a private room. You
take off your shoes, sit cross-legged
on the floor, manipulate chop sticks
and consume your raw fish, eel and
rice away from the vulgar gaze of the
hoi palol.
But when you go to a hot springs
well that's different! You undress,
figuratively light a Murad, don a
bathing suit of utter nonchalance
and saunter into the pool oblivious
to the fact that you and fifty other
men and women are "dressed exactly
as you were the day you were born."
The Japanese think nothing of it
and after five minutes any trepida
tions you might have had about
visiting a Nudist colony In Europe
will have vanished. And after all,
why not?
Last Sunday morning I saw the
man who next to the emperor rules
Japan. Prince Salonjl la the last of
the elder statesmen and his word Is
obeyed by the government. Rather
he suggests and advises and his ad
vice is always taken.
Prince Salonjl only visits Tokyo
when there is an emergency In the
government and I saw him leave the
Tokyo station after pouring oil on
the troubled waters. He carries a
gnarled staff given him by the em
peror which Is his right to authority.
Only U of the titled nobility of
Japan all over 80, have the privilege
of carrying an imperial staff. The
tradition goes back to the 12th cen
tury. Respect in Japan is shown by com
plete silence and while the prince
and --:s retinue pasACd through the
station the thousands of assembled
people stood so quietly that you
WHAT'S GOING THROUGH HIS MIND?

could bear the Master clock of the
station ticking off the seconds.
He entered a reserved second class
sleeping car and departed on the reg
ular train for Kobe.
The Salonjl family is a large power
ful family In Japan. It la noted for
Its "celibacy" the men have taken
concubines, no wives.
The police censorship of the press
Is airtight In Japan and you soon
find that out when you are here.
Communists have been held in Jail
for months before the newspapers
have carried the stories and Just the
other day & small Item announced
that 24 days ago an attempt had
been made to burn the House of
Peers the congress of Japan. The
newspaper story said that gasoline
had been sprayed in the corridors
and Ignited. But the fire had been
extinguished before much damage
had been done. But not a word about
it was printed until 24 days later.
Japan la full of patriotic societies
of ex-service men, ex -conscript sol
diers and sailors and boy scouts. They
take their Interest In government,
politics and civic affairs very serious
ly. The other day a delegation from
one of these ultra-patriotic leagues
descended upon the Soclet embassy,
presented & protest and proceeded to
emphasize their disapproval of con
tinued Japanese-Russian border fric
tion by smashing up the furniture.
Police came on them double-quick,
escorted the patriots to the police
station, gave them a polite lecture
and sent them home.
This incident of course was front
page material In Moscow Just as a
stray bullet that wandered Into a
Japanese consulate In Siberia caused
the political pot In Tokyo to boil
furiously for several days until the
facta were ascertained.
Last week I attended the luncheon
of the Tokyo Rotary club at the
Tokyo Kalkan (restaurant), a build
ing six stories high, covering a city
block and devoted solely to the dis
pensing of food. Tnis building was
originally constructed to be a hotel
and was virtually completed when it
was discovered that from the top
floor and the roof garden, loyal sub
jects of the emperor and foreigners
could look over the gate Into the
grounds of the imperial palace I That
was unthinkable! It could never be
tolerated. So after much debate and
discussion, it was decided that the
building could be used as a restau
rant as the indignity apparently did
not extend beyond the act of sleep
ing. So today the largest and finest
restaurant In Tokyo la housed In an
elaborate building and Its banquet
rooms accommodate 6000 guests at
one sitting. The Tokyo Kalkan pays
excellent dividends.

Approximately 80 new members
have been added to the roster of the
local aerie of the Fraternal Order of
Eagles during the past week, it was
announced by officials of the order
yesterday. With these results com
ing during the first week of the two
week membership campaign, mem
bers of the local Eagles believe that
by the end of the present week the
membership of the organization will
be greatly Increased.
Following the regular meeting held
last Friday a social dance was held,
which was the largest the local or
ganization has experienced for years.
President A. H. Banweli called a
special ; meeting of the local aerie for
next Wednesday night at 8 o'clock,
at which time It is expected to vote
on further new applications so that
everything will be in order for the
big Installation which will be held
at the armory on Friday next.
The drill team of the organization
will conduct a reheaisal at the ar
mory on Monday In preparation for
the big meeting.
VHowing the installation of the
new members on the 17th, a ddance
will be held for Eagles and their
wives which promises to be a large
affair In view of the many new mem
bers who will be In attendance for
the first time,
'The fact that we are obtaining io
many new members demonstrates two
things," stated President A. H. Ban
well yesterday. "First, that men rec
ognize the advantages obtained by
membership in the Fraternal Order
of Eagles, and second that business
conditions are on the upgrade."
Members of the campaign teams
and the Investigating committee will
meet at the Eagles' hall tomorrow
night at 8 o'clock and all taking part
In the campaign are urged to attend.
It Is expected that a targe turnout
of the membership will be on hand
for the meeting Wednesday, which la
the frst special meeting of the local
aerie which has been called for quite
some time.

A Song To Crater take
Lake of mystic charm, my song would

Voiced in tones of an immortal
symphony:
Beauty crowned In majesty and calm
repose.
In thy harmony the light of Heaven
glows.
O'er thy silent depths the soaring
eagles fly,
Guarding snow-capped peaks .that
tower to the sky:
Ethereal moods reflecting In the
mirrored mist
Earth's lonely tears by sunshine ages
kissed.
Lake of mystery, of ever changing
hue;
Crystal drops In purple shades of
slumbering blue;
Cradled by the myriad cliffs thy
waters deep
Blend in magic splendor like a Jewel
asleep.
Warm In Summer's breath, caressed
by golden light;
Cold tn Winter's grandeur, framed In
gorgeous white.
No artist's brush can e'er portray a
scene so rare
As Nature's hand hath left so proudly
there.
Many compliments were heard at
the banquet, regarding the strong
descriptive power of the words, the
pleasant harmony of the music, and -

FIRE AND DEATH
NORTH BONNEVILE, Wash.. Aug.
U (API Sam Manzie burned to
death today in the flaming ruina of
his two-story Inn, the victim of a
firebug.
Manzie, the huge and genial pro
prietor of the hotel In this mush
room community, died because he
would not quit the building until he
knew that every one of his 13 guests
were safe. His body, two steps from
safety, was found where he had been
overcome by smoke.
Residents who first saw the flames
during the early morning, declared
the fire was set from the outside.
The incendiary aspect of the fire, po
lice said, was supported by two other
occurrences this week. An attempt
was made several days ago to burn
another Inn. Kerosene was poured
on a stick of firewood. On Thursday
an automobile was fired by an ln
cend lariat.
North Bonneville is on the Wash
ington side of the site of the 31,

gation 'dam being built across the

Temporary Truck
Permit Holders
Warned of Law
Through the cooperation of the
Public Utility department truck op
erators have been able to get tem
porary permits to haul fruit from
farms to packing houses, according to
Claude Thompson, of the Association
of Commercial Truck Owner. As
these permits are not permanent, op
erators are urged to return their
plates upon expiration, or apply for
permanent ones if they continue
hauling for hire.
There has been a certain amount
of unfair practice by truckmen who
are not properly licensed, but no more
than would be expected from any new
law, Mr. Thompson stated. Local of
ficial hare recognized this fact In
their tolerance, anticipating all truck
operators would expect to qualify by
another season, he said.
