Air Express Is
Increasing

Air express shipments over
Eastern Air Lines, Inc, were
heavier in July than in June,
although the number of ship
mentS were nearly the same, C.
P. Ryman, air express traffic
manager, stated today. The
company is a member of Gen
eral Air Express, the nationwide,
lnterline system.
July'S shipments numbered
1905 and weighed 13, $50 pounds,
he said. June's record was 1907
shipments weighing an aggre-
gate of 10,608 pounds, it was
stated, giving July an increase
of 2,944 pounds. The increase
is partly attributed to heavier
international shipments flying
via Eastern Air Lines from Chi
cago, New York and other points
to Miami, where they were
transshipped to South American
points via Pan-American Air
ways.
July this year showed an in
crease Of 655 shipments over the
same month last year, with
a resultant growth of 6,192
pounds. The average weight of
packages sent by air express last
month was IL pounds. Lower
rates went into effect on August
Is and greater gains are ex-
pected to result from the reduc-
tion.

Rates Reduced
For Cruises

Reductions in the rates Of the
California, sailing to Nassau, Sep
tember 9, on a Six-day cruise, and
the Pennsylvania, sailing to Gu
racao, Venezuela, and the Virgin
Islands, September 16, on q r.
day cruise, have been announced
at the offices of Cunard White
Star Line, Ltd.
The cruise to Nassau allows for
full daylight day ashore, with
ample time for sightseeing, bath
ing at Paradise Beach and golfing.
The longer cruise will allow for
seven hours in Curacao, 13 hours
in Venezuela, during which a trip
will be made to the mountain-top
capital, Caracas, and 1914 hours
in the Virgin Islands, the ship
calling at st. Thomas.
AS trade winds blow constantly
in this section of the Caribbean,
the atmosphere afloat and ashore
is always comfortable, and never
charged with humidity. People on
recent Cunard White Star cruises
found the West Indies cooler than
their home sections in the United
States.
The California and Pennsylvania
are Anchor Line steamers.

Carlsbad Governs Only Partially
EXPLORED and MQDDed

of 300 feet. No photograph yet
taken reveals more than a very
small part of it's glories. From
the ceiling depend millions of
Stalactites.
The floor is lost under stalag-
mite formations of infinite vari-
ETY. and size and shape. There
are ghoStlike totem poles, tall
and graceful, reaching upward
into the darkness. There are
irregular basins of old springs,
some empty, others filled with
water. Within the boundaries
of these pools rise lilly pads"
of onyx.
This indescribable glory Of
form and substances has been
created in utter darkness
through centuriesy yet against
the ultimate coming of light
the finishing touch of color
has been added.
There is a smooth whiteness
of tale, the blue-green white
of ice; the sparkling brilliance
of frost; the black and gray
and brick red of the basic
rocks; the jade green of flow
stone; the shell pink and tea
rose in the stone curtains and
portieres; the light cream of
the great domes and the tur-
quoise blue of the pools.
What one has seen of the
Carlsbad CaVerns is but one
quarter of their known extent,
and that above and kelow and
beyond are Lnexplored passages
which may lead to even greater
wonders.

many historic memories; the
ancient prison of Gevangepoort
bears silent witness to the time
of the Spanish occupation.
'"The House in the Wood" is
there also, where Mary, wife of
William the Third, king of Eng
land, passed many of the storm
lest days of her life. Many
museums and picture galleries
are in The Hague, filled with
Old World treasures, and full of
interest to those for whom the
past has great charm.
Diamonds and Delft
In Amsterdam, where the
worlds most famous diamonds
were cut, is the Rembrandt house,
the royal palace, and the never
to-be-forgotten carlton concerts.
Visitors may be admitted to the
diamond-cutting works, and thus
learn much about precious stones
never known before by the lay
man.
There is also the Museum Will

'an unusually large number OF
tourists this year who ordinarily
would have gone to Europe or else
where, but also there has been evi-
dence of growing interest on the
part of residents of South America
in visiting the United States.
The MunSon Line reports that 1t
has also had considerable success
in developing tourist class travel
to South America. While the
rates are materially lower than
first class, the comfortable accom-
modations and excellent food have
persuaded many travellers to make
the journey who otherwise could
not afford the trip.
The Munson liners call at Ber-
muda south-bound and north
bound en- route to South America.
The liners also call at Trinidad
on their return voyages from the
southern hemisphere. The ports
of call in South America include
Rio de Janeiro, Santos, Monte
Video and Euenos Aires.
The Munson ships are 535 feet
in length, with beam of IA feet,
and accommodate from 425 to
47O first, tourist and third-claSs
passengers.

Bermuda Seen
In Nassau. Trip

For those whose vacations
come late this year, as we'll as
for those whose holidays were so
early that they are beginning to
think again of travelling, the two
new nine-day cruises on the Rot
terdam offer a splendid oppor-
tunity for complete, luxurious
and inexpensive vacation, says
Darrell Preston Aub, District
manager of the American Ex-
press.
Although these cruises, which
leave New York on September
7 and 81, have been only re-
Gently announced, they have
caught on" so to speak, almost
Immediately. The reasons for
this are several, most important
being the itinerary-two days in
Bermuda, and one in Nassau
and the unusually low price Of
the cruises.
During the two days at Ber-
muda, members of the cruise
party will make the Rotterdam
their home.

let Holthuizen, where old china
and furniture are on display-a
treat for any antique lover.
You might go on a short visit
to the City of Delft, where there
is to be found the burial place of
Hollands Washington, William
the Silent, Father of his country.
Not far from the church is the
spot where Hollands hero was
assassinated during the republics
struggle for liberty against the
ancient tyranny of the monarchy
Of Southern Europe.
Delft pottery is known the
world over for it's blue and white
freshness, its charming designs,
and utilitarian beauty. One may
go to see the great factories where
the earthenware is made-and
looking out of a window, see the
original landscape that is repro
duced so faithfully on the bowls
and plates.
Peace and Beauty
The old episcopal city of
Utrecht is the center of the king
dom of the Netherlands gem of
true antiquity, with it's canals and
its cathedrals.
Leyden is the scientific center
Rembrandt was born within its
confines, and here many men
have lived and died whose names
have been written in glowing let

Land of Windmills and tulips!
Black and white cattle Craze knee
deep in the grassy fields, the sky
is blue and the sea is bluer.
There is a peace and genuine
ness about the atmosphere that
is hard to find elsewhere-the
people have simple tastes, unSul-
lied by the money-grabbing in
StinctS so prevalnet today.
A beautiful country to visit, and
one which gives to the visitor a
precious gift to bear homeWardS

Carlsbad Caverns National
Park in Southeastern New Mex
leo, has been termed "a grand
canyon underground" The
entrance gives no hint of the
almost endless passages, the
enormous chambers, the breath
taking magnitude which lies
beyond.
Eerie shapes which resemble
birds or beasts or figures in
profile, seem to step out into
the light. These weird for1na'
tions and the delicate encrusta-
tionS that cover the blocks OF
fallen rock, bring intimate &C.
quaintance with the wonder

calcium carbonate and dripping

Something less than half a
mile from the entrance one
enters the first of q series of
three chambers - the smallest
roughly 14O feet by 100 feet, the
second three times as large,
and the third even larger still.
All are separated by partitions
of cleaning onyx while the
ceilings are covered with drip
stone.
Here and there the myriad
stalactites form curtains reach
ing the floor, others seemingly
raised and drawn. Many are
translucent and little thicker
than theater drop curtains.
Their delicate tints of pink and
tea rose are brought out when
light is held behind them.
Circuitous trails are followed
about an enormous chamber
appropriately called the Big
Room. It is 1000 feet long, in
places 625 feet wide and with

Romance C|ings
To Cducho

The early occupation of catch
ing and tanning wild cattle and
horses on the great pampaS OF
Argentina produced a type OF
frontiersman somewhat like that
of the American cowboy of the
years between 1900 and 1880, yet
more distinctly resembling the
cossack of Southern Russia dur
ing the decades preceding the
World War.
The gaucho was above all things
a horSeman, never dismounting
except to sleep beside his animal.
His weapons against cattle and
men were the laSso and the bole-
tas, the latter being made of balls
of metal or stone, fastened to-
gether by a thong, and so hurled
as to coil around the legs of the
man or beast aimed at, produc-
ing an immediate halt.
Round the gaucho clings all
the romance of the. pampas, for
he was accepted as the embodi-
ment of the primitive virtues of
daring, endurance and loyalty.

The lovely kingdom of the Meth
erlands is always delight to the
visitor there. There is a charm
about the low-lying country that
is not found anywhere else.
The canals, that, winter and
summer, provide roadways and
commercial arteries for the peo-
pie of Holland, form a crisS-cross
pattern everywhere that is unique
and interesting.
Distinctive
The markets, full of round, red

Air Mail Gain
Reported

United Air Lines, on it's New
York -Chicago-Pacific Coast and
Seattle-San Francisco routes, car
ried 18 per cent more mail in July
than in June, poundage being
the equivalent of 100000, 900 pieces
of mail during the 3O-day period.
Part of the increase is attributed
to reduction of air-mail postage to
6 cents an ounce.
The company also registered a
gain in air express during the last
80 days.
