inland from Tampico. From earliest

earnings over to his wife as banker.
For several years he led a eolo-iess

RAIL LINE CROSSES OCEAN
nemarkshie Trip That ls Taken by

West, Florida.

thousands of Americans at the va.
cation time of the year take the only
ocean trip which can be made on
railroad train. writes "Niksah" In the
Chicago News They go to Key West
by way Of the line which runs through
the Atlantic ocean on an embankment
ouiit from one TO another OF those tiny
Islands known as the Florida keys.
As you ride along this remarkable
railroad. you look out the window and
down into the clear shallow water and
see great schools OF fish playing near
the surface. and deeper down you can
glimpse now and then the shadowy
form of small shark. On either side
OF you reaches away to the horizon a
vast expanse OF brilliant blue water,
dotted with islands. which vary In size
from a fraction OF an acre, to perhaps
quarter of a square mile. They are
low and fiat and covered with low
growing mangroves. and other swamp
plants. Here and there group Of
eoconuts or royal palms lifts a feath-
cry silhouette. Occasionally a little
shack is glimpsed. and a few sails are
seen In the distance, but for the most
part the region is n wilderness OF blue
water. white sand and low growing
jungie--a wilderness that you would
love to explore in a small boat.
OF life you see little. Now and then
white focks of ibises rise from the is
lands; tree duck spatters clumsily
away from the train, or great blue
heron trails his legs In lonely dignity
across the sky. For the most part
silence and sunlight own the place.
