ACCOUNTING FOR THE FLY.
Explanation That Probably Did Not
Satisfy Traveller.

Before sailing for Egypt for the
winter James Hazen Hyde said at a
farewell dinner in New York:
The only drawback to a tropical
winter is the flies. In the hot sun OF
a January day in Egypt, Morocco or
Algeria the flies are an incredible
pest. You see them in the corners
of the eyes of native children and
men lie asleep in sunny places with
aies crawling over their lips.
The natives don't mind the flies. In
fact. they like them. AT boorj or
native inn in the Sahara traveller
said to the waiter pointing indignant
