The Man Who Knew His Country
By OSBORNE MARSHALL

humorous description of his visit to the
islands. The two form the text books
for the respective Bermudian visitors.
Mrs. Bells book sold we'll from the first,
and it was more or less a matter of
family pride in the Bell family that the
American mother should have been able
to show the native Bermudians so many
things about their own country.
In the meantime, William Bell was
making his way in the States" Some
how. from college he had drifted into
the musical promotion business, and as
advance agent for New York musical
agency and later in the university ex-
tension work in Philadelphia he had a
greater opportunity to be thrown into
contact with men and women in various
parts of the country than is usually the
privilege of young business men. There
is a tradition that he visited in his
rounds 800 American cities, and that
in that time he lived at 500 American
hotels of every description, and, came
into touch with human nature in as
many localities of the United States. 1t
was strenuous business, but Br BeH
liked it. and though he longed as all
Bermudians long for the country where
there are no logs and where all the
roads are white and the waters are
blue, still he accepted his expatriation
as essential to his business success.
About two years ago word came from
home that Mrs. Bells book, Beautiful
Bermuda" had run out of print and that
another up-to-date edition was in order.
From financial point Of view the book
had been successful and, besides, it was
a family tradition that the book should

products-and waited. But he didn't
have to wait long. Soon as Stourists'
agent Mr.. Bell became so successful that
he opened a branch in New York CITY.
For a little while when Mr.. Bell busted
himself about Bermuda the Bermudians
wondered what he was dreaming of.
They couldn't see just where the profit
was coming in this business of supplying
information and offering courtesy to
tourists without charge, but in the mean
time every one who came in to Mr..
Bells Office and went away satisfied
was the best sort of business asset.
Then this spring MIR. Bells oppor-
tunity came. A general feeling was in
creasing among business men of Ber-
muda that more hotels and better hotels
were needed to accommodate the tour
lists. The principal qualifications need
ed in making hotel successful in Ber-
muda, it was apparent, was knowledge
of the needs and expectations of Ameri-
cans such as a Bermudian who had not
lived in the States could never have.
There was also needed knowledge Of
Bermuda conditions such as a newcomer
from the States, be he ever so familiar
with hotel management, could not hope
to have MIR. Bell then in spite of him
sell found that his previous training
had all been the best sort of preparation
for hotel management in Bermuda. So
when the Bermuda fnanciers who pro-
posed the building of new hotel asked
MIR. Bell to manage it, he had no mis-
givings as to his fitness for the task. In
line with his mothers theory that the
best Bermuda season is in the summer
the new hotel is to be opened few days
after next Fourth OF July, just in time
to catch the summer vacationers. And
when this happens and the old Bermu-
dians see that Mr.. Bell is making a sue
cess right in his own native land, they
will probably wonder why he wasted 4
dozen-odd years in business in the States
little realizing that it was the long
years spent in that benighted region that
made him able to meet the problem "a

be continued So Mr.. Bell consented
to let his work in the States" do with
out him for a few months and made a
hasty return to the islands of his birth
to see about the new edition.
OF course, Mr.. Bell had visited home
at frequent intervals during the course
OF his sojourn in the States" but it
was not till he undertook the revision
OF his mothers book that he realized
what wonderful changes had taken
place in the possibilities OF the little
island. People were beginning to real
ize that as a pleasure resort Bermuda
had wonderful possibilities. that for the
men who ran steamboats,, for the owners
and proprietors OF hotels. for merchants.
and provisioners there was an auazingly
fertile field for activity 1t was all the
more fertile because as yet most Ber-
mudians had taken their opportunities
too much for granted.
So while Mr.. Bell worked for long
hours day revising eveu page of the
book, bringing it up to date and enlarg-
ing its scope. the truth of the fact that
right in Bermuda lay his greatest op-
portunity was bearing in upon him. His
first opportunity was in answering ques-
tions. To be sure, the book told almost
everything there was to tell about Ber-
muda. but in order to make tourists con-
tent and in order to make them want
to return to Bermuda he felt that there
ought to be some place to which they
could appeal for all sorts of informa-
ton
The result of this discovery was that
Mr.. Bell opened little office on the
main street of the capital of Bermuda,
where in large signs that no one could
miss seeing, he Offered to answer any
question on any subject relating to Ber-
muda. In the meantime he made ar
rangemerts with the various steamboat
companies and owners and proprietors
of points OF interest in Bermuda so that
he could handle tickets for their attrac-
tions at the usual commission, stocked
up his little shop with all sorts OF things
that tourists want to buy-Panama hats,
baskets, postal cards, and various native

maybe, if it's French waiter, he says
"Gasson" instead of "Waitah," and
winds up with "Honri" instead of
"Gawge." That's the man think. Or if
he goes home to eat it's: "Weil, ma,
what we got for dinner t'night? Smells
good, anyway" Say, / wonder it don't

But get wise to the dame thinking

from day before yesterday, and I've got

make two do. Now, we had roast beef
last Sunday and week ago Wednesday
and the third of August, 1897. We had
calves liver Thursday, Monday week,
and June 8, 1912" That's the way she
goes at it, and all in between she thinks
of what the prices are and what Henry
likes and what the twins will cat and
won't eat and what she can do with the
end of the ham if she gets ham, only
she don't, because she had tongue three
days ago and ham and tongue are so
much alike. Say! if man had to think

can't explain how she thought anything
out-she thinks so fast that it would
take her a week to tell how she thought
it. Like asking telegraph operator to
kindly name the towns and villages a
message went through going from New
York to San Francisco. The message
can get there in minute, but it would
take the guy at the key year to name

things. Zip! That's how a woman

was to their best interests to have an
swers to these questions always ready
for the tourists.
So Mrs. Bell-Euphemia Young Bell,
as she is known to tourists Of the Island
the mother of large family and a
loyal daughter of her adopted country,
conceived the idea of having printed a
little pamphlet simply answering the
questions most frequently asked by tour
lists. 1t was little more than boarding.
house and hotel list to begin with, but
it filled long-felt need.
Not long after this beginning it oc-
CURED to Mrs. Bell that a great deal
of money and energy were lost every
year in Bermuda because tourists visited
the island only during short winter
season to ESCAPE the rigors of North
ern winter. This meant that for many
months the hotels and boarding houses
were unoccupied. The carriage drivers
and the shopkeepers; in ract. almost
every one, had dull season. This was
very hard for the Bermudians and also
kept the prices for the tourists at a
high standard. 1t was perfectly appar-
ent to Mrs. Bell that Bermuda's most
lovely season was in the summer. and
that so far from being oppressive at
that time it was much cooler than are the
maj ority of American summer resorts.
So with the view of presenting Ber-
muda as an all-year-round resort Mrs.
Bell wrote her book known as "Beauti-
ful Bermuda Every one who has
visited Bermuda knows this little book.
1t goes hand in hand with that other
book about Bermuda written by an
Ameriean-Mark Twain's quaint and
