They planted an enormous number of hikan cherries, omisha cherries, double cherries on Grass Mountain, Wushe, and Nanfang\u2019ao, which is how this particular station came to have a row of hikan cherry trees. Except for a week of hasty blooming around the Lunar New Year, their pale, bare figures were hidden under mastlike betel palms, as if inflicted with an autistic lack of confidence. Yes, there were definitely betel palms, as in a photograph of soldiers from the end of the previous century, in which an oxcart moves slowly under the shadow of trees that sway in the wind, as if cut out of paper.

It was all the fault of off-duty GIs, who were seen on the street from time to time, and who chatted you up, gentlemanly.

If you didn\u2019t loaf around after school, you\u2019d get home in time to see the show.

They wanted them to feel Japanese. They mostly did this in two ways. One suppress the local culture, Two impress the locals with their own culture. They suppress the local culture through the teaching of Japanese in the schools like the Japanese teacher in \"from the old country\". The other quotes show more of this. The other way they do this is impressing. They are able to impress by building 10,000 cherry trees and hope the locals would be like the Japanese and fall in love with these Cherry trees. They're hoping they will eventually see the wisdom of \"taking a bath in the afternoon and cooling off in yukata and geta.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1809\" src=\"https:\/\/pages.stolaf.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/946\/2017\/03\/IMG_5777-copy-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"564\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pages.stolaf.edu\/mtoc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/946\/2017\/03\/IMG_5777-copy-3.jpg 600w, https:\/\/pages.stolaf.edu\/mtoc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/946\/2017\/03\/IMG_5777-copy-3-150x141.jpg 150w, https:\/\/pages.stolaf.edu\/mtoc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/946\/2017\/03\/IMG_5777-copy-3-300x282.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1810\" src=\"https:\/\/pages.stolaf.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/946\/2017\/03\/IMG_5777-copy-5.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"205\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pages.stolaf.edu\/mtoc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/946\/2017\/03\/IMG_5777-copy-5.jpg 600w, https:\/\/pages.stolaf.edu\/mtoc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/946\/2017\/03\/IMG_5777-copy-5-150x51.jpg 150w, https:\/\/pages.stolaf.edu\/mtoc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/946\/2017\/03\/IMG_5777-copy-5-300x103.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_pb_module et_d4_element et_pb_toggle et_pb_toggle_2 et_pb_toggle_item  et_pb_toggle_open\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<h5 class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\">Japanese Influence - Place Name<\/h5>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_toggle_content clearfix\"><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It is interesting to see that the character \u5706\u5c71 has different pronunciations.\u00a0In the past with the teaching of language in Taiwan, Japanese attempted to suppress the local language and thus \u5706\u5c71 was pronounced as Maruyama.
