DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from From Tokio Through Manchuria With the Japanese With this national sentiment so pronounced, and with every person in the kingdom, man, woman or child, almost overwrought by the intensity of their patriotism, the Visitor from other lands is astonished to find that there is little outward indication in Japan itself of a war which means a life-or-death struggle to the kingdom. Probably the most astonishing thing to the stranger is the complete absence of military pomp or show. Outside of the im mediate neighborhood of the War Depart ment and other military headquarters in the empire, one does not see a soldier in uniform. The great cities of the empire are occupied with the every-day realities of life, just as be fore hostilities began, and except for occasions which arouse the patriotic spirit, when flags and banners are brought out and great crowds assemble to shout Banzai Nippon, the daily routine of labor goes on in the even tenor of its way, just as if no war existed.
