Esperanto, 



4(^5 



We print this isBue a very neat translation of Es- 

 peranto Specimen No. 6, sent in by " E.H.," of In- 

 vercargill, New Zealand. We were about to say that 

 we regretted the small number of translations that 

 ar«> being sent in to us, but on consi<leration we 

 hardly think it a matter for regret. Truly Esperanto 

 is -iuch an extremely easy language to read that com- 

 petitiv<' translations into Engbi.sh are apt to lack in- 

 terest. We shall not therefoie undertake to print 

 all translations in future, but we will continue to 

 print ICsperanto specimens that seem to us to be of 

 interest, and will give transIation,s in those oases 

 where the interest of the subject matter warrants it. 



TK'ANSLATION. 



(U) Nkithai.itv .\xd Toleration. 

 " Let us everywhoie and always show to the world 

 the beautiful spectacle pre,~ented during the Congresss, 

 at which, in truth, every member, out of courtesy to 

 his neighbour, refrained from que.stioning him about 

 his religion or his opinions. It was enough tc know 

 that he was an Esper iintist. Well, let our groups and 

 other union,s <'ver i-i'iModiue tli<- mutual courtesy and 

 genialitv that niad<' the happiness of all in the Con- 

 grt-Ks. Irt't Us be Ksperantists and not sectarians, for 

 in " Espeianto-land " the two things nece.ssarily drive 

 out each other; and as we are Esperantist,s. let u,s 

 have all the respect and toleration for the religion 

 and the politics of others which we desire for our 

 own. Otherwise our neutrality i.s but a sham." 



KSPK!!ANT.V KUBO, MELBOITRNA. 



'I'he monthly meeting of the club was held as usual 

 on Friday, the 5th of October. Great interest was oc- 

 c;i^ione<l by the arri\al at the club of the " Prnha." 

 Tlie rritha is a KoikIo. and a I?ondo, it must be ex- 

 plained, is a <locuni<»iit sent roinid through a number 

 of stations, to retui-ii finally to its point of first de- 

 parture. Kendos take various forms — letters, post- 

 cards, etc. — but in the case of this one a successful 

 .attempt has been nuule to create a thing of unusual 

 interest. The I'raha consists of twenty-four pages 

 or cards, not bound like a book, hut attached end 

 to end in a long chain, and then folded up concertina 

 f.ishion. 



The lirst three pages are occupied by a panoramic 

 \ iew of the city of Praha, more commonly known to 

 us as Prague. Following this is a description, all in 

 Esperanto, of course, of that city, and a sketch of its 

 history. A rafxlol .sentence is given in Esperanto, 

 with the request that the membeis of each club will 

 render the same into their native language, and ap- 

 pend it to their contributions. An address to the 

 various clubs to which the Rondo is ad<lressed, and 



directions for filling up and forwarding ii, iumplet<j 

 the Praha Club's contribution. From I'l.ihii tho 

 Hondo passed successively through Berlin, iStockliolni, 

 St. Petersburg, Bulgaria, Kome, Algiers, Spain, 

 Paris, London, Alontreal, Mexico, Lima and Santiago, 

 and has now been forwarded by the MelbouriK' Club, 

 according to directions contained in tlie documeht 

 on the way to its home in Prague. 



The contributions are all interesting, and in manj' 

 cases very characteristic of the countries passed 

 through. Most of the clubs have embellished their 

 sections with pictorial inserts, showing views of their 

 respective towns. 



The document is an interesting illustration of the 

 " internacieco " of the "Kara lingvo."
