PORTO RICO HOLDS MUCH Of INTEREST West Indian Isle is an Idea) Place For Tourist to Sojourn. A kind of all tho year round mag"dficicnt scenery, glorious climate ind indescribable charm is Porto Rico, says a writer in the Baltimore Sun. A land where the days of the 4'lory of Old Spain and 20th century civilization go hand in hand, a land of new, strange sights and won lerful tropical luxuriance; fascinating in its Old World foreign atmosphere and, withal, an up-to-date bit nf our own United States. By many loving names has the island been known. To the aborigines it was Borinquen, to the conquering Spaniards first San Juan and later Puerto Rico, and today 'tis oft called the "Isle of Enchantment,' or the "Treasure Isle," and. while all of these are wonderfully appropriate, a still more fitting name would be the "Isle of Good Roads." While only 85 miles long by 35 miles wide, yet our little West Inrlian cnlnnv r-jin IvnncT 1 OftO ?- .. W W a vas^ V ?? a* V V H-?

The trip down an I ack on the same boat, which yju l ay use as your hotel while on the Liip around the island, takes just IG lays. On its roads you meet huge, lumjciitig bullcarts, galloping ponies, dgh-stepping thoroughbreds, packaden mules, plodding donkeys and >reat army wagons drawn by six sturdy mules crowding the highway, [n and out among them dart chugging motorcycles, honking aut nnliles and ponderous motortrucks, hile afoot trudge men, women and children of every color, race an 1 lass.
