A Small Man,
Quiet and Forceful

He did not look the boss of
tradition, for he was very
short and not heavy. There
was nothing of the Cassack
with a whip about him.
He was more TalIeyrand or
Fouche than Napoleon. But
he had "cockeye" which
gave him a rather sinister
appearance to anyone look
ing for the devils horns in a
political boss.
He was a master of the
subterranean way to results.
Soft-spoken and subtle, he
accomplished more by whis-
perlng than most bosses have
by shouting. And he fought
with a smile, with exquisite
courtesy in the SenS te,
though ever and anon his
claws struck out, and his
enemies were clawed.

Three-Minute Journeys

Valley of the Tombs of the
Kings. We cross the Nile in
row boats and find on the west
bank a motley collection of car
riages. donkeys and old autos
to help us make the six miles
to the valley.
The valley itself is a desolate
spot. No wonder the ancient
kings ordered their tombs to be
dug there. They certainly
never imagined that in such a
desolate, isolated spot, that the
hand of the despoiler would
reach out to strip the tombs of
their treasures. The road
winds between huge boulders
and forbidding cliffs and there
is not a blade of grass, not a
tWig or shrub.
Here is the tomb of King
Tut, and a visit to the tomb
chamber is a revelation. In
the stone sarcophagus is the
effigy of the king in gold.
Masses of electric lights shine
directly on the recumbent
golden figure with the crown
of upper and lower Egypt on
his head.
But few minutes is allowed
to each visitor to register this
impressive sight, but it suffices,
because no one can ever forget

Of kings, as nothing else does.

1t was a telling phrase; a
quick inspirational decision;

than their criticism had on
him. He was not often with

Up the Nile to Luxor


It seems difficult to realize
that there are so many travel
ers visiting Egypt and never
getting farther than Cairo.
They become so intrigued with
life in this interesting, cosmo-
politan spot that they think
they know Egypt. But the wise
visitor always takes the Nile
trips knowing that there is al
ways something new. that it
will bear constant repetition.
Along the banks can be seen
the irrigation canals that feed
the fields and make Egypt so
fertile. Right to the waters
edge can be seen fields of
wheat, alfalfa and other pro-
ducts. Everywhere are res
ervoirs to store the precious
liquid that means so much
economically, to the country.
One passes countless mud
villages on the banks of the
river and we know that beyond
these primitive little communi-
ties is the desert. Presently
the ruins of the great Temple
of Karnak can be disCerned on
the left bank. And so we come

AT the same time he broke
the back of insurrection in a
community peopIed by very

feeling against him there was

excellent men and good poll
