TIDE OF TRAVEL
TURNS TO SOUTH
Pleasure Cruising Popular
First Time Since War;
South America a Magnet
For the first time in almost five
years extensive pleasure cruising to
Southern waters will come into
vogue again during the coming win
ter. A business which Involved an
annual outlay of many millions of
dollars and which was necessarily
suspended by the great, war will be
resumed. From the present indica
tions it appears that winter cruising
will now have even more followers
than It did in prewar days.
Long before the war Americans j
had gained the reputation of being |
the world's greatest travelers, and j
it would not be surprising after five!
years of inertia in this respect if the I
fever should break out In an ovon |
more violent form.
But the trend of travel is In a dif
ferent direction for the time being, j
Instead of the Med ! terra rtean and
F.gypt. it is now South America and
the storied Andes that beckon irre
sistibly.
One of the most extensive cruises
to South America ever undertaken
will start early in January for the
west coast. Although this is a long
and costly cruire of two months'

FRIDAY EVENING,
I duration, it is said that the ship is
already nearly sold out.
Kxpect Record in Travel
, i "There are plenty of indications
j that the tide of pleasure travel," said j
u well-known steanishtp nan, "in
'! stead of resuming where it was cut
| off by the war, will assume far |
,' greater proportions than ever before,
jln addition to the vast throng of
! winter vacationists, whoso expomli-
Iture on steamships, foreign hotels
] and railroads ran to a billion and
odd dollars in the years before thet
war, there is a class equally numer
|' ous that has won riches within the
11 last four years and now for the first i
, I time is able to enjoy the luxury of
j travel for pleasure.
'Finally there is a very large group j
• of businessmen who have become in-'
'! terested in the opportunities for for
j eign trade and who are wiling to
/combine the pleasures of a. trip with
]a survey of the business field.
| Travelers of the latter class particu
larly are showing a special interest
in South America.
"For almost four years the scarcity
lof ships has crippled, and at times
almost "entirely prevented, nil travel
Ito South America and the V.'ost rtt-
Idies, even when a man had business
|to transact, but commerce with
I South America Is gradually being re
stored to normal."
Slriuiidilps Hard to Find
' fine of the greatest difficulties in
'arranging to satisfy the insistent de-j<
rnanris of tourists anxious to visit
i South America this winter was to
i find a steamship suitable for the ;
!purpose. Practically till available
| vessels are engaged in other regular
[lines of trade.
It has been well said that the '
'greatest wonder about South Amer-J
• tea —the land of wonders —is tile
lack of knowledge concerning 1L Its!
civilization, its native industries, its!
school system antedate our own. I
t'uzco, the ancient capitol of Peru,!
was a. highly-civilized city of vast!
, wealth generations before Columbus'
was born. To-day beef and wheat!
from Argentina compete for thel
markets of the world and show a!
steady increase. . South American
nitrates and other fertilizers enrich
i the tarms of North America and
Europe. Its rubber for tires has
made the automobile industry on the
i present scale possible and practi
cable. Its theaters have no equals
in magnificence and size.
As concerns its natural wonders of
especial interest to tourists, Mount;
Aconeogua of the Andes range is the j
highest in the western hemisphere; I
the iguazu Falls are higher and)
wider than Niagara. Lima, "the
City of Kings," with a present pope-;
lation of 150,000, was under Spanish'
rule the capital of the whole con-1
tinent.

SYMBOIj OF AUTHORITY j
These are the times when author
! ity is challenged on all sides. X i
; should not be in the least surprised
. some day to hear that "parents, obey
I your children" had come into being
■us a new rule of conduct. In coni
! moil witli most other people, I have
i lost the faculty of surprise in these ,
days of topsy-turvy. ■
j But 1 have a respect for authority ;
| and a settled order of tilings. lam !
j 011 the side of the police (when, in
! deed, they also are not out on strike)
and I respect government when it
will be good enougli to do that fori
which it has been placed in author- j
, Ity; that is to say, to govern. It has 1
the machinery of ruling, and the
i tradition, handed down from old
1 time. Very well, then, let the gov
erning authorites "get on with it,"
as the man in the street might say.
Authority has many weapons, some
of them so ancient that they have
become symbolic rather than lethal
engines of offense. There is, for ex
ample, that highly decorative attri
bute of every mayor and corpora-
tion, the mace, which in its highest
symbolism in England, in the House
;of Commons, whether resting in its
! rack on the table before the speak- i
er. or carried into the House on the
.shoulder of the sergeant-at-arms,
typifies the authority of that House,
duly elected by the "free and en-!
lightened" electors of the United
Kingdom.
But "that hauble," as Cromwell
stled it, was in its origin, like that
of all other corporate niaees, a woa
pon, and one of a peculiarly formid
able type. The traditional Irishman
j who at Donnybrook Fair gave the
{advice, "when ye see a liid" (by
] which he meant a "head") "hit lit," i
generally hit it with his blackthorn
shillelagh, or bludgeon, which was
to all intents and purposes his mace,;
and certainly liia only authority for
such promiscuous assault and bat
