To really see the beauty Of tropical
Florida one should take trip by mo-
tor from Lakeland to Cape Sable.
A party consisting of three Canad-
ians, Miss Aikens and Miss Pearen OF
Toronto, and Miss Beattie Of Peter
boro, together with Professor Blatch-
ley, naturalist, of Indianapolis Ind,
and genial Mr.. Bayley, who. conduct
ed the party, started for a winter TRIP
to the Cape.
AS We travelled along the Dixie
Highway by beautiful orange groves
we wound in and out past wonderful
little blue lakes nesting around cor
ners, everywhere Frightening the
landscape surrounded as they are by
stately pines and tropical trees OF
various hues, festooned with spanish
moss, all making Florida scenery
very attractive. Cypress swamps
whose trees are just bursting with
leaf, wild orchids on the branches
sparkling rivers, beautiful villas, vii
lagos and towns bright with flowers
and vines, among the hanging moss
of the oaks gladden. the eye. Ever
day and constantly the scene changes
until nature seems to have exhausted
I herself in pouring forth beauty Of ev-
cry variety. The gay plumage Of tbs
birds, which one sees in numbers
with their charming songs, ieligh
both eye and ear.
After we had passed through thu
towns of Kissimmee and picturesque
Orlando, we approached Sanford il
the heart of the great celery belt, ant
crossing the beautiful st. Johns rive
by ferry we soon arrived at New
Smyrna, which is very prettily stu
ated on the Indian river, separate
from the sea by a narrow strip o
land. Here we saw the quaint oil
ruins Of Spanish fort destroyed owe
hundred years ago, the masonry G
which is four feet in thickness.
To attempt to describe the beautiful
East Coast with its tropical tree
shrubs and flowers would be out {
the question, especially towards tn
southern portion where pines an
palms of every kind beautify ii

FIRST SUFFRAGE
LEADER HoNoRED
Portrait of Late Susan B.
Anthony to Hang in
Museum.

The record OF Susan B. Anthony
whose portrait has been oficially
accepted by the National Museum
reads from contumely to Immortality.
This honor. along with the passing OF
her suffrage amendment by the
United States Congress. marks the
considerable advancement made by
women since the days when Miss
Anthony was mobbed in New YORK
state on account of her views.
This is the first exhibition to be
established in the museum for any
woman who made her own name.
There are several who appear as
the wives OF great men who made
history. but Miss Anthony made his
tory on her own initiative.
The portrait was painted by Miss
Sarah ]. Eddy and has hung for the
past two years in the mansion at
1926 Rhode Island avenue, where the
National Anne rican Woman Suffrage
Association maintained headqusr-
tiers. Before that II was in the
office of Mrs. Carrie Chapman Gait.
when she was chairman of the EN-
pire State campaign committee in
the first New York State suffrage
drive. that Of 1913-1915. This por-
trait represents Miss Anthony not
as an inflexible leader of an abused
cause. but as a noble grey-haired
woman with little children laying
roses on her knees.
The scene was copied from an in
cident in real life on her eightieth
birthday. The artist is the daugh-
ter of Eliza ]. Eddy. a fervent suf-
fragist who gave $4,000 to Miss
Anthony and Lucy Stone for the
furtherance OF the cause OF women.
All OF this fund. like the Leslie be-
quest. was devoted to suffrage Cd
ucation in the United States.
Among the souvenirs of the Ions
fight for American women's en-
reimbursement. which will also 20

the round table upon which was
written the call" for the Seneca
Falls convention of lS4s. This was
the first active move in America 10
free women from civil and political
bondage. The table was presented
to Susan B. Anthony from Eliza
beth Cady Stanton. one of the con-
veners of that first Women's
Rights Convention. Miss Anthony
in turn passed it on to DR.. AIMS
Howard Shaw and her own niece
Miss Lucy Anthony. who have now
in the name of the National Ameri-
can Woman Suffrage Association, OF
which DR.. Anna Howard Shaw was
honorary president. confided IT to
