j. e. Saunders Home

Mr.. and Mrs j. E. Saunders re-
turned home last Sunday night from
Chicago where Mr.. Saunders had
been for some weeks at the McFad-
den's Institute for treatment for
rheumatism. Mr.. Saunders had spent
the greater part of the winter at
Umatilla, Fla, but not realizing the
results he had anticipated, went to
Chicago where his relief was more
perceptible.
Mr.. Saunders is feeling first rate
though somewhat wearied from the
trip home. He was at his office Mon
day morning and was looking fine.
He says, however, that after all is
said and done Colorado, and espec-
tally the eastern part, is about the
best place yet.

he Is on the rim Of the world. Some Of
the turns are 50 sharp 1t is impossible
to see 20 feet ahead, and We seem to
be perilously near the jumping of
place. We wonder If it is safe to lean
out and peer into the canyon far below,
and when we do we are perfectly sat
isfied We are flirting with death. Yet
the trip Is safe one, providing our
driver has better nerves than our own.
All too soon we reach the outskirts
of Baguio, city among the clouds,
and are rather surprised at the modern
city we find it to be. In ten years Ba-
guio has grown from q village Of huts
to the now Justly famed mountain re-
sort Of the Philippines, sometimes call
ed the Philippine Simla. It is un-
doubtedly destined some day to become
large city.
Baguio ranges In elevation from
$500 to $500 feet and il surrounded
practically on all sides by high noun
tain ridges and "hogsbacks" towering
into the skies 1t 4 height Of almost
5000 feet.
Aside from the scenery, which is
noteworthy, the great blessing Of Ba-
guio Is its temperate climate, which Is
indeed godsend to those impoverish-
ed by the tropical temperatures Of the
lowlands. Not only is the mountain
air rich In ozone, but it has been DEM
onstrated to be extraordinarily free
from germs Of all kinds.
Each year during the hot season the
school teachers Of the entire archipela-
60 are enabled by the government to
spend month at the teachers camp
In Baguio for recreation and confer
encs on school work. American army
oMcers and their families also 70 to
