The Ok1awaha River
In .Florida

has never been convenient to do so
until yesterday-and l made the trip
yesterday in that same little old-fash-
ioned steamboat, the Okeehumkee.
have wanted TO see if the Oklawaha
really looked as have pictured it SO
many times.
The Okeehumkee starts from Palat-
ka at about noon. 1t reaches Silver
Springs about noon the next day.
1t is queer little old steamer built
to fit the river it travels on. 1t looks
like a base ball catcher with mask
on before and behind and we'll padded
to protect his sides. The fore and aft
decks are ample but no side decks for
the bushes would scrape the tourist off
and the water of the Oklawaha is
deep and very wet. The berths are
comfortable and the food as good rs
you would expect.
The boat is fred by wood and the
river is lighted up at night by wood
fires built upon the top deck. These
pine knot fires furnish the only search
light the boat carries and they are
unique and give the forest an enchant-
ed air.
1t is about 35 miles from Palatka
to Silver Springs as the bird fys. but
it is about 1875 miles as the boat must
go. The whole river is as unique and
interesting as the little section l was
familiar with years ago. So far as
know there is no other river like it in
America-so narrow. SO crooked. so
jungle-like in all its appearances.
The last nine miles up are through
Silver Springs Run, which is the
stream of water running out of Silver
Springs.
The water of the Oklawaha is as
amber colored as good tea The water
OF Silver Springs Run is as clear and
transparent as a bottle of Manitou.
You can see the sand on the bottom
and the fish all about as clearly as Ia
the glass globes we keep the gold fish
in.
Silver Springs to the observer ap-
pears to be small lake of clear wat
er. The water comes bubbling up out
of the pure white sand. 1t must be the
outlet of an underground river. it
is said that 800 600. 900 gallons Of wat
er flow from these springs every day
That figure means little to most of us.
but the volume is great enough to
make a river several times as large as
the Arkansas and would irrigate sew
eral Colorado counties
The big spring covers several acres
and is s5 feet deep. The water is SO
clear you can see every pebble on the
bottom.
But even the literature sent out by
the Okeehumkee people tells the story
by picture and sums the whole thing
up in these words But no pen can de-
scribe this great natural wonder of
the American Continent-the traditiol-
al fountain of youth of Ponce de
Leon
So after that-who am that !

easily get.
That was an interesting night. We
were in the heart of one of the most
impenitrable jungles of Florida. / was
a green youth from the North and ap-
preciated to the fullest the call of the
wild as heard in that jungle that
night. The owl, the alligator and the
big base bull frog did their best TO
keep us awake all night.
We were up early and in little
boat pushed our way through the for
est swamp a mile when we came to 4
little stream down which we floated
another mile or two to the Oklawaha
river. We reached this fascinating old
stream about sunrise and such an ar
ray of natural splendor l have seldom
seen. The golden rays of the rising
sun sifted through the moss draped
forest of giantcyprus trees. festooned
and decorated with ferns, orchids and
blooming vines made a sight to re-
member. l view no more sun rises
than are necessary to the business in
hand but that one stands out promin-
emily in memory.
We spent the day on the Oklawaha
and it's tributaries. We rowed and
fished up and down and in the little
water. by-ways. I know of nothing in
this wide wide old world of ours quite
so crooked as the Oklawaha river. 1t
is not as crooked as anything but more
crooked than anything l know Of For
The most part~its banks are no banks
at all for it is deep narrow amber

crooks and turns through a jungle
like forest itself mostly under water
My friend and guide knew the
country as Mr.. Weston knows our own
and We found our way In and out of
The crooked little river, by little mar
row water ways. Now and then 1t was
necessary for him to raise up the
vines and overhanging bushes with
his hands while ! padded the canoe
through the luxuriant growth. Once
we emerged from a Labyrinth of verdure
into an open pool as large as our city
reservoir. This he told me was a

had been filtered and the pool so large
we could have dropped the court house
into it. We could see every fish and

DAYTONA
The GEM OF TOURIST FLORIDA

We left Havana in the morning;
Our boats eailed at 10 a. m. and
reached Key West at 5 p. m. A few
were sick, but that was to their per-
sonal advantage for they got rid of a
lot of the undesirable Cuban greasy
food stun. and were ready for a good
American square meal. The voyage
was pleasant however, and both the
departure from picturesque Havana
and the arrival at the island city, Key
West. were most interesting sights.
There had been snow storm up
near New York somewhere SO the
train into Key West was nine hours
late. 1t was consequently late in
starting out>so we saw the Railroad
