to write you again from some point farther along our way now here we are in palermo and right down in the toe of the european boot we left montecarlo jan 17th and passed from france to italian terri tory the town of ventimille our first stop was genoa a city of half a mil lion and principal sea port of north ern italy this is the birthplace and home of christopher coiumbub the house in which he was bom and lived still stands and is preserved by the city of course we had a good look at the home of the great explorer who discovered our country there is also a very fine monument of him in the city the church in which he was baptised still stands and is in daily use there are fine monuments here of garibaldi and victor emanuel ii the present king we visited a cathedral one thou sand years old in fine preservation in which lie the chains and bones of john the baptist we went through the city cemetery this has besides its large outside grounds over a mile of enclosed building or mausoleum the sections here which can only be had by the welltodo are decorated with marble statuary thousands of them beautiful designs by the best artists and in many cases actual likenesses of the dead beneath there are millions of dollars worth of statuary in this cemetery in one part devoted to the poor who cannot afford to buy a plot the bones are removed after five years and reinterred all together in an immense pit at one end the same ground is again used for fresh burials this is done because the cemetery cannot be extended as all around it is solid bare rock and mountains we left genoa jan 19 at 10 am for rome arriving there te 7 pm oh yes we passed through pisa and had a fine view of the fam ous leaning tower it surely looks as if it would fall over it is not very high but really artistic we change our time again at the border and are nowsix hours faster than the home clocks rome the eternal city with its wonderful history of empire and re ligion which celebrated its thou sandth birthday nearly seventeen hundred years ago and where there is so much to see both ancient and modern that i cannot really tell you of it in an ordinary letter we are all more or less familiar with the history of rome but its past great ness is hard to realize till one has seen the ruins of its vast colosseum its enormous public baths its mighty temples the wonderful forum and beautiful palaces much of the old wall and great gates are still stand ing as also is part of the aquaduct that supplied the city with water carried from the mountains twenty miles away in fact so well was this built that part of it built over two thousand years ago as well as some of the sewers of the same period are still in use for the same purposes one of the finest places visited was the colosseum this enormous open air theatre or sporting palace was once a beautiful marble covered highly decorated building but now a com plete ruin with much however left standing built in the years 70 to 80 ad en part of the garden of neros golden palace it is part brick and part stones and nearly 40000 slaves were used in its con struction covering ten years its height is lgn feet diameter 030 feet and has four tiers of seats built so everyone could see the whole arena 50000 spectators could be seated and 25000 could stand above the top row of seats the first performance lasted one hundred days and five thousand wild beasts and hundreds of men were slain the arena could also bo flooded and water sports held a popular sport was a fight between small war ships and the winner was the ones that killed the entire crew of the other no sham about the fights of the early days or any complmnt from the audience not having the worth of their money a large part of one of the enor mous public baths built in the second century is still standing this one is 700 fee long 36o feet wide and 200 feet hiffh divided into three halls each with water of a different temperature rosidets open tanks there were many hundreds of bath tubs slmiiar in shape to the present only larger and cut from solid beau tiful rock highly polished many of these are now in the museums in rome there are acres and acres and miles and miles of historical ruins but cannot describe them here would like to say a word continued on page 4 to dump the dump jjamaicans look at the regular council meeting on j wei i to

winter fresh air is a necessity the year round in the warm weather we live outside by preference and because we are more comfortable that way we keep the bedroom windows open as a result we securo an abundance of fresh air during the cold wea ther most of our time is spent in doors and we may forget that in dr ira and mrs freel arrived home on saturday from a couple of months spent in jamaica doth feeling tine and rejuvenated as a result of their holiday abroad during their stay in the west indies they lived at manderville a town of some 4000 inhabitants while the natives are primitive in mauy ways the country is very fertile and excellent for farming and fruit growing jama ica is famous for its rum tobacco and fruit and the capital city is kingston dr freel sees wonderful possibili ties for the fruit industry there especially if the desire of the public men the press and the farmer there ever becomes an accomplished fact namely that they become an nexed to canada all our citrous fruits or most of them come from the us and if jamaica ever became a piovince of this dominion they would bring to it that which we now have to import only about two per cent of the people are whites and the tourists are mostly from the british isles the black race speak a very broken or garbled english labor on the island is most reasonable to obtain hence people with comparatively small wealth may live in ease there for a common laborer 35c per day is tire prevailing wage while a good reliable jackass which takes the place of the horse may be purchased for10 shillings 250 although little bigger than a large dog it is a common sight to see four people astride these animals journeying to town the doctor didnt buy one as they were tabooed from the golf links in addition to luscious fruits the hotels serve chicken turkey ducks and prime beef all of which fairly abounds in the farming sec tions there is just one objectionable feature that dr freel couldnt shake off concerning his visit and that is the prevelance of the tick which annoys one similar to what a mos quito or the black fly does the bite from this pest will take a couple of weeks to heal and one must sleep under nettingbut even then they got their annoying work in sometimes they breed among the large herds of cattle on the ranges and the wind blows them hither and thither dr freel found a suitable solution to apply on the skin finally which stalled off the invaders towards the latter part of his visit dr and mrs freel had a delight ful boat trip on the return journey as far as new york thence by rail miss
