! CagO, SAID MISS OdulP ' ~ "a
though it is very large and pretty
enough. Central Park doesn't care
for its animals like the animals OF
Lincoln Park are cared for, and
therefore there is a difference in the
atnosphere of the two places The
largest aquarium in the world is in
Central Park.
The trip from New York to Fall
River. where they took the train for
Boston. was made by water on the
ship priscilla" The trip out of
New York harbor is accompanied by
the most impressive sight imagin-
able. with the skyline Of the tall
buildings looming heavenward, SEEM
ing to rise right out of the sea. The
tall Woolworth building is the last
to be seen as New York fades in the
dim distance when the boat proceeds
on up the coast.
In speaking of Boston Miss Camp
| bell said, "it is the craziest town l
was ever in. You would start down
the street and meet yourself coming
back" There are many old histor-
| ical places in Boston that were Wis
tied by the party. They went aboard
"Old Ironsides" in Boston harbor
and were over the ground where the
Boston massacre took place. Miss
Campbell described the Boston ho-
tells as being old and dignified but
service not up to the standard set by
hotels in some of the other cities
they visited.
From Boston, the party journeyed
to Montreal and Toronto. In Toron-
to an Ad Mems convention was in
progress and the young ladies were
presented with souvenirs consisting
of miniature trays and finger bowls.
The next city was Buffalo, and here
the party stopped at the Broezel no.
tel. Roycraft Inn, the home of Ell
bert Hubbard was visited and Miss
| Chapman of Goldendale describes it
as the most beautiful and most rest
full place she had ever seen. The
rooms are all named after artists
and scholars, the names being en-
graved in woodwork. While in Buff
falo, the party went over to Niagara
Falls on the electric line, and viewed
that famous beauty spot from nearly
every angle. Miss Campbell remark
ed that while she was there she did
not get sight of any of the members
of the Mediation Congress.
The trip from Buffalo to Detroit
was made by boat. While in Detroit
Miss Campbell went out to Bell Isle
Park. This park, she said, sis too
beautiful to describe" 1t is easily
the most popular rest resort in De-
troit, and the river and canals which
run through it make it a watering
place second to none in the more in
land cities. The Ford Manufacturing
plant was also visited. Miss Camp
bell describes this plant as being toe
large to comprehend. She says it is
with amazing rapidity that these
cars are turned out.
On the return visit to Chicago,
trip was made out to the old exposi
tion grounds, now known as Jackson
Park. Some wonderful collections Of
art were seen in the art galleries
The next city was Milwaukee, where
the ladies went through one of the
large breweries (this being one Of
Milwaukie's leading attractions). The
cemeteries were visited and Miss
Campbell tells an interesting story o.
an old, gray whiskered man, a vet
eran of the Civil war, who has pre-
pared his tombstone, with the ex
ception of the date, and has set this
stone up beside that Of his wife, ant
is now waiting to die. He present!
r a pathetic old figure, as he sits BY
: his wifes grave all day long, th'
5 center of a curious crowd which HI
) attracts. They call him "old maj
Collins"
Y The party left Milwaukee for hom
} but they made stops both at st. Pau
: and Minneapolis. At Mandan, Nortl
} I'akota, the train was held up TO
: nine hours on account of the BIZ
/ washout. The trip home was mad
e over the Northern Pacific and the
arrived in Portland Friday morning
July 8, at 10 o'clock The next da
Miss Campbell brought her trip to
fitting close by attending the annua
d reunion and picnic Of former Morro1
u county people in Columbia Park i
