McILRAITH _ I formed the acquaintance here of (a Dr. Ketchum and wite from Munsey ‘In i., intelligent and agreeable peoâ€" ple, who were going to the Isle of Pines, south ot Caba and their desâ€" cription uf the place and pressipg inâ€" | vitations put a ‘‘ bee in my bonnet " ‘and roused a desire to see it. Arâ€" \rangemen«e were made to meet on a |certain date in Indianapolis. These |\were carried out. We stopped one \day at Lexington on invitation from \a Mr Drake, whose acquaintancee we had made at Martinsville. He is a farmer and met us with his auto, took | us around the interesting city, then to ‘two oig stock ftarms, then to his own farm where we stayed all night, being most agreeably entertained. C By request of the Editor I anm furnishing a few paragraphs giving a resume of a recent trip to the lands bordering on the Galf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea. Travel east and west in the same latitude is quite common: it is a rarer experience to travel north and south threagh the latitudes and to meet the ineyitable changes of temperature and varying specimens of hamanity composed of ty pes far removed from the " men of ths Northern Zone, ‘"‘ that the Khan sings about. In the tirst days of January 1913 I found myself en route to Martinsville Ind. a famous health resort, a place where rheumatism is sai1 to meet its Waterloo, and where patients are pat through a series of hot baths and steaming operations that reyeals to one more e¢learly than all school book lore that the skin is a porous structure for ous of it, out of the pores, there pours perspiration supposed to carry away the eyil spirit of rhenmatism from the bones and tissue. No mud baths here, nothing but hot mineral water, which northernera may sample for themselves by making a concocâ€" tion of rotten eggs in sott water and drinking it in a temperature of 85 to 90 degrees! I was the only Canadian in the place and as such aroused some curiâ€" osity, for as one gets away from the border, opinions formed by the averâ€" age *‘ American " about Canadians are somewhat hazy. The teaching about Canada in their Histories and Geographies is grotesquely inadeâ€" quate and otten misleading, and even writers in the public press make bad breaks frequently. (t Next morning we came back to the sity, saw the tobscco market and drving houses, certainly a novel sight to a Canadian and a Westerner. We went out eight miles and saw the largest dairy farm in the world and were struck with the cleanliness evâ€" ery where prevailing and the fine conâ€" veniences for stabling, feeding, milkâ€" ing, etc., etc. After dianer we took the train and passed through Kenâ€" tucky, Tennessee, Georgia and part of Florida, a most interesting trip through a land filled, and filling, with an alien people, who are, in a sense, avenging on the white race By James Brown, of Regina, at present in Holstein, TOURINGâ€"IN THE TROPICS The Wonders of Panama. Large Sales the great crime by which their anâ€" cestors were torn from their African bhome, later to endure humiliating subjagation. Certainly in the " Neâ€" gro problem,‘‘ with its accompanyâ€" ing race antipathies and brutalities, there is scope for the ablest and wisest statesmanship. Througk Kentucky a good deal of the land is rough and mountainous aod by actual eount we weat through £5taonels. Around Lexington is the Blae Grass region, a fine looking eountry and farmers are nearly all wealthy. Georgia is flat and sandy aod a good deal of it swamp coyered with pine trees. The country people in the main are negroes, they do nearly all the work and as we passed through they were ploughing the cotton fi.lds, most of the ploughing bsing done with one mule to a plow. The little negro ecabins with half naked youngsters and goats running arcund is a povel sight when seen for the first time. Lots of green vegeâ€" tables are seen though it is January, and I saw also peach trees in bloom aud when we resched St. Augustine the flowers were all in bloom outside, At Lexipngton it snowed some but melted as it fell and we learned there had been frosts in Florida, bus little harm dorne. St. Augustine is the oldest city in America, still with a Spanish flavor, and one tries to recall the far gone day when Spain and Portuga), by the sinction of the Pope divided this whole " new " world between them. What a fall bas taken place! Neithâ€" er now own a foot of land on the conâ€" tinents, bat it will be long if ever, beâ€" fore their melodious language dies out. St. Augostine is quite a resort for tourists and the hotel at which I stayed was crowded, but all strangâ€" ers. We spent only two hours at Jacksonvyille, so saw little of it. It is 30 miles from the ocean and does a big lamber business. Ocean vessels come up the river to the city . From St. Augustine we planoed to reach Havana, the capital of Cuba. The reute through Florida showed the usual profase tropical scenery. Lakes abound and an immense area in the south ealled the Everglades is beyond all drainage and apparently will never be fit for haman habitaâ€" tion. At the southern extremity of this state stretches a chain of islands called the Florida Keys and these bave come into great prominence since the Cuban war. ;hl?clnos or_the rlo({)% d;vide(:hthi"sail. on tropical seas in February is | :Vho 0 rnfi‘{] :’Ok" ft e‘e" Ne‘?lal]-_ delightfal, but a storm then is as bad n fhe pieeaana ce ue un Anapre on io enenaaat oo *\ straits a heayy rough sea played haâ€" inents, bat it will be long ifever, beâ€"| yoe with u\liny §mmac§, imd the : ore their melodious language dies| writer for safety took to his berth. out.

As we approach Hayana, the spot is pointed where the Maine was sunk, the act, whether of accident or design, that precipitated the war with Spain that cost her not only her American possessions but the Philipâ€" pines as well. What a queerâ€"looking old city with its narrow streets and sidewalks ! Bat some fine modern buildings are going up and the newer streets are wider. g‘ne Cuban is a mixtare of Spanish, Negro and Iodian, a mixâ€" ture that so tar has not produced any eutstanding men of mind, though some of them excel as leaders of Ggerillia wartare. The prevailing language is the musical Spanish but many of thenatives can speak Engâ€" lish. Iyisited the old Spanish fortifiâ€" cations and got tired walking through them and so took & tripinato the counâ€" try to see some of the tobacco and sugar plantations for which the isâ€" laad is famous. This is the largest city in the West Indies and exports immense quantities ot sugar, tobacco and other tropieal products. The tourist season was on and they were coming and going all the time. Everybody got asquainted very soon so there was no chanee of being loneâ€" some. A sail of fourteen or fifteen hours takes you from Hayana round the western end of Cuba to the Isle of Pipes, farâ€"{amed as a health resort. I got over a good deal of this beautiâ€" fulisland, thanks toa kindly gentleâ€" man with an auto who seemed to take pleasure in imparting informaâ€" tion. _A man and wife named Upton, wheo used to live in Hamilton, Qaotarâ€" io, came to hear that a real live Canâ€" adian was on the island ard waylaid me taking me to his home and giving me a real good time. So much for Canadiau clannishness. ~ This is a splendid place for rheuâ€" matism, warm all the time, eyen in February when Holstein and Regina are struggling with snowdrifts. I stripped off all umderclothing and got about without either coat or vest and even then was too warm. Bat it ‘‘were a lot too blest " to stay longer in lsle Pinos so took the boat for Botobano, 90 miles distant and by another stroke of lack found a man bringing an auto to Hayana and he pressed me to ride with him across Cuba and this ride was simply grand and interesting, Héhad been over to the island with the Wm. Jenâ€" nings Bryao party and was returaâ€" ing. Another look round the quaint old Spanish city and I took the boat abou: 2 p. m. ftor New Orleans and was lapded there two days later. A THA DURHRAM REVIEW ONTARIO ARCHIVE TORONTO ‘ I expected to meet my brother George and Mr Scatt here [Note by Editorâ€"â€"George is Lient.â€"Gov. of Sask., Mr Scott, the Premier,] but found a message instruciing me to xeet them at Hot Springs, Arkansas. So had another interesting trip inland to that point to find they were not there, They came next day and told a good joke on themselves exâ€" plaining their lateness which was through no fault of their own. They bhad got into a sleeper the night preâ€" vious intending with other travellers to be speeding south all night. They went to sleep, their train left but their coach uncoupled in some way, remained in the depot and they woke next morning to find themselyes " as you were." ! We came back to New Orleans toâ€" gether and after short stay in the city l as chaperone, left for a ten days outing at Sea Breeze, Florida. Beâ€" fore going Mr Seott and I made enâ€" qairies about a boat t> Panama, but ftound all space taken. However, by mere chance, as we wureleaving, baffled, a telephone rang and the clerk called us back saying the mesâ€" sage was cancelling two places on a boat leaving on March : booked at once. Buat we Sea Breeze and this is rambling notes this week.
