Caves and lepers, bandits and pirates— what thrills these magic words once gave me when, as a youngster, long before the "movies" took root in the pockets o^our people, I heard, not to say read, of such things! And here was the reality, to some extent at 265 OBSERVATIONS IN THE ORIENT least, failing to excite an imagination that has been growing cool with advancing years. As we were returning to the "hotel" Father Cothonay express- ed his regret that I could not meet a certain one of his parish...ioners whose house we were passing and who happened to be "out of town for New Year's." This parishioner, an Annamite woman, is as yet only a Christian at heart and not by baptism, but if her zeal continues she should make a valiant member of the Church Militant. When she realized for the first time that her gods were of tin and other structural material she went back to her house, pulled from the wall a rather valuable painting of many idols, and was about to burn it, when Father Cothonay suggested that a place in New York State called MaryknoU could make good use of it as a horrible example.
