sages coming from various parts of the
Valley. Julian Ashheim, SON. of A.

Various other discussions between the
two Englishmen followed. They were
particularly pleased with the Valley
section as one that offered more abund-
ant opportunities than any other pat
OF the country. Discussion Of manners
habits, etc. followed. "
Many Automobiles
Your people surprise me with their
large number of automobiles, said MIR
Stokes. Here you see no one walkr &
while il England every one walks
There an automobile is for pleasu e.
Here everyone uses it. in his business
and most of them have two or three
cars.
And they eat more than we do" put
iD Mr.. Chambers. Their food is good
still they give one too much. 1t is
really shame the amount they waste,
for most Of them eat only about hall
what they take. In England they are
more careful with food. And they eat
less"
The Englishmen agreed that they had
been royalty entertained since their ar
rival in the Valley. They also agreed
that one bul fight was their limit
People in this country are SO big,
so open hearted; why our money has
been worth nothing since we arrived
here" Mr.. Stokes said. 1t is indeed
big country, and they do things on
a big scale--ao everything in big way.
They have made US feel that we are one
of them, and we have appreciated it."
Each spoke of his son, and each ex-
pressed the opinion that he would like
to see his son here. Although the two
Englishmen were from far separated
parts Of the country, they were much
alike in their opinion of the Valley-the
same opinion, in connection with de-
that was voiced by so many
other delegates who came to the Val
ley.
