MAGNOLIA 
Travelling—a la U. S. 
Horace H. Atherton, Jr., of Sau- 
gus, who was to have spoken at the 
People’s Forum at the Village 
church last Sunday evening, was un- 
able to be present by reason of ill- 
ness. Mr. Tarbox of Boston was the 
speaker of the evening in Mr. Ather- 
ton’s place and his subject was aA 
Tour Throughout the United States.’ 
illustrated by stereopticon views ot 
creat beauty. 
The trip covered 9000 miles, start- 
ing and ending at Boston. The 
route taken was through the peace- 
ful Deerfield Valley, thence to New 
York, Chicago and Detroit and Kan- 
sas City. On the Santa Fe train the 
way was through the Kansas wheat 
fields, which seem very expansive 
and beautiful to the New England 
traveller. Interesting views were 
shown of the New Mexico, the tour- 
ists find so fascinating, and of the 
people, their customs, and houses. 
California with its orange groves 
and poinsettia blossoms was a never- 
ending delight. Los Angeles, which 
within comparatively few vears has 
srown immensely, proved to be all 
that i is claimed for it in the matter of 
beauty, and the San Gabriel Mission 
outside the city limits was interest- 
ing as a relic of another age and for 
the beauty of the altar plate and 
beautifully wrought vestments, 
which always interest tourists. Pasa- 
dena and the well known ostrich 
farm were the next points of inter- 
est. 
The views of romantic, decayed 
old Santa Barbara were particularly 
interesting, and one felt at once the 
charm of the place. Sant Barbara is 
also interesting for the Spanish mis- 
sion, which has so much of romance 
and of history connected with it. 
The gardens there are something to 
remember. 
The trip by train from Santa Bar- 
bara to San Francisco was beautiful, 
giving a quite wonderful view of the 
Pacific Ocean on one side and wheat 
fields, and carefully kept gardens on 
the other. The views of the Exposi- 
tion at San Francisco unon which 
$85,000,000 have been spent, were 
new and interesting. The Tower of 
Jewels, with its 50,000 - imitation 
jewels, the Court of the Sun Dance, 
the largest wooden building in the 
world, the Court of Psalms, where 
the musical programs will be held, 
and the Palace of Agriculture, cov- 
ering 5 acres of ground, where a 
complete canning factory will be 
demonstrated, were shown.

about which so much has been said 
and written, was quite a contrast to 
the modernness of the exposition 
studies. The sidewalks, shops and 
markets furnish excellent material 
for the camera man. 
The trip through the Yosemite 
Valley and to Portland, Oregon, 
which is called the Rose City, was 
picturesque and Hood River Valley 
was equally beautiful. The roses at 
Portland and the orange blossoms 
in the Valley brough joy to flower 
lovers. 
At Utah the unique salt fields 
proved interesting and the Morman 
City, with its reminders of Brigham 
Young, no less so. Eagle Gate, 
which was once the private gate to 
Mr. Young’s extensive grounds, was 
artistic and beautiful. 
The views of Yellowstone Park 
were vividly colored, doing justice 
to the greatest charm of our famous 
Park—its coloring. The mountains 
the geysers, and the falls were all 
shown in their most favorable lght. 
_ From Denver, which was chiefly 
interesting for its immense and pic- 
turesque City Park, the trip lay 7 
through Nebraska, and thence to 
Chicago and back to Boston viewing — 
en route Niagara Falls, which seem 
very beautiful and very impressive. — 
Seldom has a travel talk been more 
enjoyed at Magnolia and the even- 
ing passed all too quickly to Mr. 
Tarbox’s audience..

The Ladies’ Aid society of the 
Village church held a bean supper
