Japanese Culture

Tokio, July 20:

One of the oldest histories of Japan, the "Kogo Jui," will _be translated into English by Dr. Genchi Kato under the auspices of the Keimeikai, an association' organized to give material aid to scientists and scholars. The work when complete will be published and distributed among different foreign universities and learned bodies, in order to engender a more widespread and general interest in the ancient culture of the Japanese people.—Reuter.

Dr. Frank Crane, America's popular author, whose cheery philosophy is so widely broadcasted through newspaper syndicates, returned to Shanghai yesterday after his trip to Peking and Nanking. With his wife and daughter, Mrs. Daphne Drake, and nephew, Mr. Henry Crane, Dr. Crane will be at the Astor House until Monday when the party leaves for the United States on the Empress of Canada.
