4 Street in Cadiz

in Cadiz
 particular cities in a certain way and the poorest way of all to approach almost any city is by train. Never go to Cadiz by rail. Better far, if you are in mid-Spain and must use the roads or the tedious ferrocaril, go to Seville or over to Tangier in Africa and make one of those little voyages that are regularly available, in order to come upon Cadiz by way of the sea. It is generally acknowledged that there is no other sea approach in the world that is so beautiful as this.
 Cadiz at such times and in such cir cumstances is a glorious picture in white and blue. She rises up from the sea on a small platform of limestone rock which only very narrow isth- mus holds to the mainland. In a ma. jestic silver beauty the houses with their azoteas, or fiat roofs, seem to rise like fairy city above the deep blue of the sea, their miradOres or view towers surmounting them. All are heavily coated with whitewash ire Quently renewed.
 ~ Always White and, Clean.
 1 Thus the city is always white quite smokeless, and is kept spotlessly clean. It gliStens in the sun against the blue Andalusian sky, with waters tapping it nearly all around. The poets and the descriptive writers have almost ex- hausted themselves in their use of fine adjectives to describe it's beauty and yet they feel they have failed. Span iards call it their "tazita de plata" or silver dish; some of them say it is more like 'palacio de plata" beauti- fully chased, and from another aspect they liken it to a great alabaster ship floating out upon the waters. No terms are too strong in which to speak of Cadiz thus seen from the sea- for she is indeed very beautiful, vertically "a white pearl set in a crown of sapphires and emeralds."
 The interior of no city could con- pletely match such an outside view, but yet Cadiz, within, is good and pleasant also, and is always extremely clean. But 1t Is very practical place, and though it has it's cathedral with spire rising over all, it has little in the way of art1-one of the oldest cities of Spain though it be-to attract the visitors who need 1t for their finger ing at any place. It is place to wonder at, to tarry at for but a little while. and then to leave, knowing it full well to be unforgettable But in the new days of travelling that are be- ginning, no person who wanders toward the south of Spain should, through neglect, miss seeing Cadiz from the water It will live in his memory when he has forgotten many pictures. It will hold it's place in his esteem even when he comes face to face with the incomparable Bay of Naples.

Few Saw Historic Act

When the great seal of the French republic was affixed to the peace treaty, thereby validating the sigma lures of President Poincare and M. Louis Nail, minister of justice and keeper of the great seal, only a few privileged high officials attended. The seal somewhat larger in size than a silver dollar, shows on one side the seated figure of the republic with the inscription, French Republic, Demo- cratic, One and Indivisible." On the other side are the words, Tn the Name of the French Republic" sur rounded by wreath of oak leaves en- circled by the republican device, Lib erty, Equality, Fraternity"
 The seal is imprinted by means of a handworked stamping machine, re- sembling letter copying press.

ers of Mrs. Clement, wish TO express
tc you our sympathy in your be-
reavement.

she endeared herself 10 both teach
ers and pupils alike by her genial
manner, her CHEEKY disposition, her
spirit of fairness and her devotion

Dean.
We shall long remember her
brave, generous spirit, combining a
cheeriness that was contagious, an
optimism that never failed, and a
courage that faced both toll and suf-
fering without flinching. She will
live again in the lives Of many girls

faith in God in her daily life.
To those OF us who saw the won

great suffering, and the brave, I'M
hunied spirit with which she
faced her heavy trial, her memory
will always be an inspiration and
blessing.
