TRAVELETTE
Jeypore.
By N1KsAH.


There is only one city in the world
that is truly built to order - every
street and house conforming to a rigid
plan of architectural design and even
carrying the faithfulness to the color
of the paint. That city is what Kipling
called a dream of pink and blue-Jey
pore.
A long time ago the maharajah of
Jeypore had his seat in a typical In
dian city in the hills. About the time
the thirteen American colonies were
fighting for their independence this In
dian ruler moved down into the plains
and built a city according to his own
ideas.
The streets were laid out on the plan
of a chessboard and with an amplitude
that surpasses even the generosity Of
Washington, to be planned a few years
later.
The houses were built according to
design, and the sky line is always uni
form, are the decorations of cornice
and frieze. And all the houses are in
pink and blue-delicate pink and pale
blue. Straight lines and right angles
are the rule. but the Palace of the
Winds. where the maharajah lives with
his 500 wives, is a structure of COL
umns and huge fiutings that resem-
bles nothing SO much as a gigantic
pipe organ.
