morning after fve weeks spent In the
Panama Canal Zone. He says the
health conditions and the cleanliness
of the zone were the things which
most impressed him: and II was par
ticularly noticeable that there were no
fiies nor mosquitoes in that district
which only a few years ago was moth
ing but swamp land.
"Mrs. Drury and ! first noticed the
lack of flies while we were at our
hotel and we commented upon that
fact" said Mr.. Drury. We were told
there were no flies on the Canal Zone.
We wouldn't believe IT. We were
from tn United States of America and
we had to be shown. We went out
into the streets. but could md no
flies.
Then we went to the one place
where flies would assemble--the mar
ket place. Not fly to be seen. We
went through the market-the stalls
containing meat, FISH and vegetables.
There was not a fly in evidence. This
] think, Is a fine tribute to the work
Of the United States. which was re-
sponsible for the cleaning up and de-
velpoment of the Panama Canal Zone.
