Dear Tribune:
Our heads are full OF such a jum-
BILE OF ideas and our hearts overflow
ing with such n flood OF emotions
that We are somewhat in doubt as TO
whether the three of us shall be able
TO put together enough connected
thoughts TO make n readable letter.
So far everything has gone well with
us. There have been no disagreeable
bitches. delays or disappointments.
This is new travel for all of us. We
have simply looksd until our eyes
ached. Even the trip by train to
Montreal vas Interesting, carrying
US, as II did. through a country none
OF US ever before had seen. We ar
rived In Detroit in the night time.
and our train was ferried across the
river to Windsor. We were awake.
all right, and enjoyed the strange ex-
perience Of taking a water journey in
a pullman coach.
Getting Into Canada.
The next day as We rolled along
through Canada, we began to real
lie we-were out OF the dear old

and we saw a good many things along
the way that were unlike what we
had been accustomed to back I'm the
states. We have got up against a
good many of the quaint English ways
and expect to get up against a good
many more. We do not dislike the
English ways but prefer Yankee GUS
toms better. We have seen all sorts
OF flags floating from masts in the
st. Lawrence. but none OF them are
half so beautiful or look half as good
TO us as does the dear old Star
Spangled Banner.
In Quaint Old Montreal.
Montreal is an interesting city and
We would have enjoyed IL Gould we
have had more time there. II was
There We first began to feel that we
really were on foreign land. The
buildings are differenet from those in
the cities OF the states. Many OF
them are very old and not n few OF
them historic. The manners and Gus
toms OF Montreal people differ widely
from those of the people in the
states. The dress. too. IN somewhat
different On the streets one hears
much French spoken. II IL more
like what We imagine old world cities
TO be than any place we have ever
seen. We have been quite put to II

Thrill Of Going Aboard Ship.
Perhaps we shall not have any eN-
pcrience that will give us quite the
thrill that We experienced when we
went aboard the PTctorian. the bis.
steamship on which we are now quiet
ly. but swiftly gliding out toward the
great Atlantic We have found the
steamship a very wonderful place.
We do not know how better 10 de-
scribe II than to say IL is like d great
noating hotel. only ever so much
nicer and cleaner and cozier than any
hotel. Our stateroom is nicely sit-
uatcd and We have an opportunity 10
see and hear everything OF interest
that goes on. 1t is all snug and
comfy in the little apartment in
which we three little HOLSTERS are to
make the journey across the old
ocean. We are not going 20 tell
whether we have got our photographs
OF home folks and set them where II
Is easy 20 see them or not.
Plenty Of Nice Company.
NO, We are not homesick, neither
are we seasick. Perhaps both ex-
periences will overtake us a little Ia
ter. We are wondering whether we
will all have TO feed the fish. and II we
are going TO be very brave and cheer
ful no matter what comes. We are
not going 20 let the other young Ia
We are not quite able to take care OF
ourselves. There are & lot Of pleas
ant people making this trip. many Of
them newspaper girls just like our
selves. We have a great lark when
We all get together and compare ex-
periences.
