The waten looks very clean, and blue on green. The bouses are in pastel colours, witb white roofs. These are kept well painted and dlean because the drinking waten is taken from cistenns. On a trip thnougb the îslands, Mns. Jones saw the aquarium and the underground caves. These caves, with rock forma- tions like icicles, are ligbted by electnicity. The Bermuda cedans bave been veny useful for funniture, bouses, ships, etc., but now. for same unknown cause, they4 are dying. The cemetenies bave no monuments, and there is one grave, about 20 feet deep, fan a family. A graup o! smaller islands are joined up ta make a level landing plan for aeroplanes. The weather, part o! the time while Mrs. Jones was there, was very bad, gales witb nain and bail, which did a great deal o! dam- age, but it was gaad for tbe ne- turn jounney, and the ligbts o!
