bee is the second best fortified city
II the world. ! am sure it must be
very much like foreign city.
Later we went to Portland, Maine,
and took a beat from there to Bos-
ton. which was my first ocean trip.
When we left the harbor it was fog
gy and the fog horns were blowing
and lookout bells ringing. Before we
got into Boston harbor it cleared up
nice. We passed through Providence,
Rhode Island, and New London, Con-
necticut, on our way to New Haven.
We spent a week at a cottage on the
coast where l enjoyed bathing and
claiming.
The first Of September. l went to
Guilford which is on Long Island
Sound. While l was there l went to
school for five weeks. They put me
in the sixth grade. Their sixth grade
is like the fifth grade in Central only
the arithmetic is more advanced and
one cannot go from the twelfth grade
to college but have to go to a pre-
paratory school for year.
We visited a house there which
was built in 1889 and is claimed to
be the Oldest inhabited house in the
United States. Before l left there
broke my collar bone and that spoils
some OF my fun. The first Of October
we went to New York City. which
was at the time Of the Hudson-Ful-
ton celebration. 1t would be useless
to try to tell all We saw there. We
went to the Hippodrome which was
wonderful. men walking into water
women flying, and all kinds Of mys-
terious things. We went through the
tube under the North river. twice.
Last week we went up the Hudson
river and 1t was grand with its
autumn foliage and boats Of all kinds
and nations. We passed many noted
peoples homes including the Rookie
feller's. Helen Gould's and Washing
ton Irving's. At West Point we pass

Springs to play the High school team
there. The home players intend to
return with scalps and added laurels.
The basket ball games Friday even
ing at Turner hall were well attend
ed. The girls game resulted in a
victory for the Prides with score
of seven to one. The boys game re-
suited in victory for the High
school by score OF 20 to IA. The
girls game was much the better of
the two, there being no rough play
ing and plenty Of good team work
The next games will be played Fri
day evening, December 3. Both girls
and boys teams will play.
The High school boys had a stag
party at Mr.. Momyer's home Tuesday
evening. The girls resolved to have
q good time too and organized a sere.

Dear Mr.. Momyer:
/ thought / would try to tell you
something about the trips l have had
this summer. On the way to New
York state we went through Omaha.
Chicago. Detroit, (where our train
crossed the Detroit river on a ferry
boat Buffalo and Albany. A little
west of Buffalo we came to Niagara
Falls.
In Greenwich is a beautiful river
called the Battenkill river. The farm
that / was staying at is very large
one. There are just lots Of ducks and
chickens here. And when it comes
feeding time We have quite a yard
full. Right in front of the house is
the cutest little trout brook. In the
woods Is the prettiest spot l ever
saw. There are little falls with but
tercups, ferns, daisies and violets all
around them.
After spending few weeks at this
farm we went to Glens Falls which
is near the source Of the Hudson riv-
er. Later we went to Salem, N. Y.
and stayed a week. We went from
there north. We went up Lake Cham
plain in the boat Adirondack" and
saw Fort Ticondoroga. Then we

Later we took the boat Ticonderoga
and went to Plattsburg and spent
the day. From there We went to Den

prison is. There are over thirteen
hundred men there. They have q
school in the prison and some old
and gray haired men were just learn
Ing to read and write. Mothers uii.

to Canada. When we were crossing
the St. Lawrence river We could see
Montreal in the distance. and lots Oh
boats along the river. As we had O
few hours to wait there, we saw
some of the city. From there we wen
to Asbestos where We stayed three
weeks. There are large asbestos pitt
