To the Editor of the "NortH-Cutna Dany NEWS"
Sii,—A Bamisu Woman would do well' by herself and to fellow mankind if she reflected a little before replying so caustically to AN ENGLISH Gint's frank admiration of Japan's charm; after all she is only a "girl" and soon enough the searching realities of age will cause her to think like her elders. Let youth, like truth, "worship beauty knowing no creed or caste."
Burns Woman is true to her sex; and it is better perhaps that women are more \chauvinistic than patriotic, therefore her amazement at patriotic Britons visiting Japan, etc, is understandable; but here she should stop, for when she maintains that "courtesy and hospitality" across the water are a scheming policy clear 10 all but "dullards" and goes on to list a series of demands and public punishment to those who are incensing Britain, her chauvinism at a time like this is better left unpublished, Fortunately our good government, not being a dictatorship, allows us to go where we like; to buy salmon from whom we like and sell it unlabelled to boot; and also to leave cut of jail the Briton who by taking his pants off of his own accord, skylarked with a Japanese sentry and this on, the first day, of the Tientsin blockade.
"Good woman" please remember that all we have and hold by that word "Briton" we fought for. in good time we will if necessary fight for again, so do try and make it easier for the man or woman who has to earn a living miles away from home and not always in "íconcessions" by being a "good" woman.
