Il like that expression you people
have of getting ones goat for your
remarkable advertising aoumen surely
gets mine" said Nattrass when a few
stunts were explained to him. Our
straight laced conservatism over home
will make hazardous the introduction
of such tactics. but I'm going to pull
some of the Yankee stuff just the
same"
Mr. Nattrass was given opportunity
to observe American social life also.
spending much Of his leisure time with
his new friends visiting the churches,
theaters, parks, pleasure resorts and
in their homes. Commenting on this
feature Of his experience. he said:
Il frsely admit that I have enter
tanned an entirely erroneous opinion Of
you Americans. We. Of course, see
many tourists in New Zealand from
the states, and with due respect for
your feelings l must say that they also
get our goat Naturally we presumed
they were typical OF all Yankees, and
the lofty. arrogant attitude most Of
them assumed impressed us very un-
favorably.

Now 1 see they represent but a
class, just as all countries have their
classes, and hasten to revise my for
mer opinion and 'doff my lid to the
warm hearted, generous, congenial
American as he really is.
Let me offer a sugget ton for the
consideration Of your congress in pro-
teeth ), your commercial interests at
least Besides properly restricting
foreign immigration, devise plan of
restriction for your typical foreign
tourists They get you in bad and
leave a bad taste in our mouth by pre-
Stunning they are the whole show"

MRS. r. F. AV cry AND DAUGHTER

"A two-months open-air picnic" is
the term used by Mrs. Rachel Foster
| Avery, of Philadelphia, in describing
the motorcycle tour Of the continent
which she and her daughter, Miss Julie
Avery, are planning for this summer.
Miss Avery will graduate from the
College of Agriculture of Wisconsin in
1915. Mrs. Avery is also a special
| student at the same school, and when
they have finished their studies there
they expect I'd take up farming near
Philadelphia While on the continent,
the Averys will study agricultural
conditions, will visit the home of the
Attorney and Guernsey cattle on the
Channel islands, and the Holsteins and
Dutch Belted IN Brittany and Holland.
In many of these places garage accom-
modations will probably be very linn
tied and the motorcycle will be of adj
vantage as 1t Gan be housed in a very
small space 1t was partly on this ac-
count that Mrs Avery chose the motor
cycle to carry them on their tour; also
because the cost of upkeep Of the two
wheeler is les than that Of even
small automobile.
The motorcycle on which Mrs. Avery
and Miss Avery will ride is equipped
with a sidecaI, also luggage carrier
on which they will carry necessary
clothing and h well fitted lunch box.
And they expect to spend most of the
time out of doors when the weather
permits.
Mrs Avery and her daughter are
very enthusiastic about their trip, and
are as enthusiastic about the motor
cycle as they are about the oppor-
tunities offereh by farming. And they
believe that the two wheeler will be
OF great value when they have COM
pleted their course at the university
and take up farming as a business.

TRANSCONTINENTAL
AUTO RACE FOR 1915.

An automobile road race
across the continent Is now a
practically assured event in
connection with the Panama
Pacific exposition to be held in
San Francisco in 1915. The
chairman OF the exposition rae
ing committee Is authority for
the statement that the most
important preliminaries have
been arranged, although there
remains a vast amount of work
in obtaining rights of way
across the various states and
counties. A race from New
York to the coast would enlist
most of the great drivers of the
world, it is believed. While no
definite route has been selected,
it is very likely that the Lin
coin Highway will be designat-
ed as the course.

Dogs to Hunt Mountain Lions.

Denver-A pack OF eight trained
hunting dogs, in charge of forest
ranger, passed through Denver en-
route to Estes Park, where they will
be used this winter to hunt predatory
animals In and around the park. Last
winter the depredations to game and
live stock in that vicinity were so Sc
rious as to cause the ranchers and
stockmen to seek the aid of the for.
est service to check their inroads.
Because OF this request, the service
has this year assigned an experienced
forest ranger from the Rio Grande to
the Colorado national forest to devote
his time exclusively to hunting preda.
tory animals in the region of Estes
park. The forest service has en-
ployed special hunters on many Of the
the forests in Colorado, Wyoming and
South Dakota during the past but this
is the first time, it is said, that so
many trained. dogs have. been. EN-.
ployed In any one instance. The re-
suits Will therefore be watched with
considerable interest. These dogs are
experienced hunters and have been
procured with considerable difficulty,
seven Of them coming from various
parts of Colorado and one from Wy.
oming.
