The ride was picturesque, from the narrow (fnnge railroad with a little engine to the ever clumping scenory, which is magnifi cent. Ex-President Roosevelt visited it, looked upon it with rapture and said, "This, surely, is America's Alps." But the people aypeal to you more than anything else. This Island surely Is the land of the "Manana," which means "tomorrow," because the people always promise to do things by saying, "Manana." The people here are a mongrel race, being intermingled with Indian, Spanish and ;negro blond, with more negro blood than anything else. It is very hard to find pure Castilian blood in any family on the island. But that docs not seem to mar their tempers. They are hot headed and . quick to fight, but it is just like a rush of Mood to the head, over in a minute. They ape the Americans in every way possible and the whole town seems to judge one down here and if you are found wanting, they soon tell you about it. They are like the Southern negro, happy all the year around. The people do not do any more work than just enough to keep body and soul together. Every Sunday morning it Is very easy to find four or fire dances going on among the better class as woll as the poorer people. These dances are held In their own homes, and it seems impos sible that so many people can dance in the rooms; The school children here are much more . easily controlled than those in the States, and they all seem to have inherited the art of flattery from their Latin ancestry. They all have an intense desire to learn, especially the English language. ' They aro generous to a fault. They bring in oranges, bananas and all kinds of tropical fruit. You can get orunges very cheap, from 8 to -2.) for 1 cent, varying in different parts of Hie island, and. 85 cents for a bunch of bananas is a munificent price. Aguadilla. the name of the town that we lire located in, means "fresh water," because thU was where Columpus landed October 8. 1 IW2. to get fresh water for his . ships. It is a b.iantiful little city of obout 20,000, but it docj not cover as much area at Reynoldsville, because, u great number of the poovor c' asses live in small one roomed thatched huts and from ten to a dozen people seem to thrive there. The j The . i -uih rati is very high from 1 aberculosis on this account. Every town t.own here has a large central plasa, where . 16 people- congregate very evening. In vhe larger towns they have bund concert iwice a week, and we have the pleasure of listening to a few in San Juau. It was a picturesque sight. Men in white flannels :tnd liuen and the women in all the latest styles and alt colors of the 'rainbow. It ortainly was an animating sight, with their unceasing promenading from one end of the plaza to the other.' The bands played the popular airs and the selections that received the greatest applause were f m "The Merry Widow." 1 would like t j take you there for the finish of the ,tiio program. I would like to be able to Ihrill you as their last piece thrilled us, JTiieconoert was, oyer at 10 00 p. m. Just before their last selection everything was 1 n a seething cauldron of talk, so It seemed to me, when suddenly the band seemed to say;' ?0 say 1 can 'you see by th,dnwn's earl iieht;, ' V.'litso proudly we hailed at thetwi light'slasXtf Baita;' The promenade became still and all thought of talking was banished from evory mind, Puerto Rican as well as American, for the Ricans seem to realize what it mcuns. Every American lifted his hat and involuntarily their eyes wandered to "Old Glory" as she floated over Morro Castle. And tlroy stood thus at attention until the last strains of that grand old tune had died away. Every American heart has gone back across 1,500 miles of blue sea, where that flag stands as an emblem of eternal freedom that we hold dear; and it is also the emblem of freedom to the Puerto Rican mind. I wish that every school child in Reynolds ville could have felt as I did, and that they, instead of passing the old flag with out a glance, would take of their hats and reverence it as we should reverence "Old Glory". BERT A. HOFFMAN. THE LECTURE OF BYRON PIAII. The lecture of Byron C. Piatt in As" sombly hall Friday "night was unusual in its plain dealing with a subject usually tabooed, through prudery, in polite society. He had beon advertised to speak on "The Mass vs. The Man,"' but at his own request was allowed to give instead "American Morals." He handles the subject without gloves and points out not only the evil that exists but the causes that produce it and which will, in his estimation, ultimately break up the I American home if not checked. Piatt is 1 eloquent, but the force of his lecture lies in its painful truthfulness. To deliver such a lecture before an audience composed for the most part of the feminine sex, and a large portion of them of Immature years, is somewhat daring, but in line with Piatt's own belief that the safe guard of American womanhood is not innocence but virtue and knowledge. Innocence, he states, is nothing but ignorance, and the direct cause of the downfall of hundreds of young men and women annually. The lecture was well received by local people and perhaps the highest compliment that could be Dald to.lt was the;'practically,S,unanlmons'l approval voiced by the older people present after it was over. .
