SOCIETY IN GUATEMALA
Unspeakahly Dull for the Average Youth

Unspeakably Dull for the Average Youth
Brought Up In America.
Life in Guatemala City to foreigner.
and especially young man, says the
New Orleans Times-Democrat, possesses
about as much attractiveness from 4
standpoint of amusement as would a
residence in a graveyard. There is abb
eolutely nothing to do except work,
sleep and eat. The only place man
has to go when he has finished work is
to saloon, and there he has nothing to
do for recreation but drink. The door
TO the best society is shut in the face Of
Observation-Disclosures, as they are
called by the naughty dons-no matter
what their standing. OF course, when
one has official dignity he is invited to
the presidents ball and other official
functions. and has entree into society,
but there is no such thing as social in
tercourse in its American sense. No
body is allowed to see young lady un-
less It is in the presence OF her entire
family under the watchful eye of her
duenna, and there isn't much pleasure
