 7 TALK OF CITY YESTERDAY
bout the last named trip.

about the last named trip.
 Did you know that the city of Mexico was inhabited by an intelli- gent people eight hundred years be- fore Columbus discovered America? Do you know that there was once on the site of the city of Mexico a tenn pie city as wonderful as any descrip- tor in the Arabian Nights? These and many more are the wonderful places of interest for the tourists to visit.
 The city of Mexico has no weather, just climate. Instead Of storms to- day and sunstroke tomorrow and on- iy heaven knows what the day after, it has a sort of perpetual climatic smile. There 5 never anything boist- erous about it, yet each morning one awakens with distinct consciousness that out-of-doors is calling him lustily and that natures face is most engaging.
 Once upon time statisticiass 5 with all proper solemnity and care, figured out that the mean tempera- ture of the city of Mexico was 66 CT 76 or 46 or 16, or something else with a six in it, but his announcement was forgotten almost before it was made be- cause the city of Mexico isn't the sort ff Y,Io IN to measure by scientific standards. You don't care whether a friend of yours has S6 or 96 pulsations to the minute; a Mexican does not care whether his dear old city has a mean of 66 or 76 Whatever the pusations may number, your friend just suits you; whatever the city of Mexico's de- grees may number, it's climate is q joy, and this you will find who take this wonderful trip.
 After the first district prizes have been awarded there will be given two trips for each district to the city of New Orleans or Colorado Springs.
 The question has been asked if one does not care to take the above trips can they take trip to any other part of the country and We will here say that you can take any trip you desire providing that the railroad fare does net exceed that of the towns mention ed.
