Tourists ReveI in Charm
Of Old Key West

Iworld appearance with narrow
streets, buildings Of various
architecture and age and q
tempo that is decidedly ped
strian. At one time, Key West
had the highest per capita
wealth Of any city In the coun-
try-thanks due mostly to a
profitable ship trade and the
the salvaging of ships wrecked
tpartly by accident, partly by
Idesign) on the surrounding
shoals. It was also the busiest
port in the country except for
New York.
Late Tourist Discovery
AS far as yacationers are con-
Ecerned, the city got a slow start.
1T was not until the completion
of the Overseas Highway through
the Florida Keys that the tour
lists began to and the place.
They have been delighted ever
since. The most appealing fea-
Iture is the overall tempo of Key
West.
Key West is set in one Of the
most beautiful seas found any
where, the fishing is superb. the
sunshine continual and the
Ibreezes always balmy. For points
Iof interest there are the turtle
Icrawls, where giant sea turtles
from the Caribbean are unloaded
for dispersal to American mar
lkets, the southernmost house in
the United States, glass
Ibottomed boat trips over fantas-
tic coral reefs. ancient forts and
excellent beaches.
The first-time traveller to Key
West generally loves the place.
It's the special flavor, the tex
ture. the tropical nature and
foreign" charm that sets 1t
apart, the things that combine
ito make that difference.

KEY WEST.

There Is only one thing that
can be said Of Key West. Fla,
that everyone viii agree on-it's
different. Visitors and natives
alike win argue with you on an
endless assortment Of points but
they all admit that the place is
one American city that falls in
q class by itself.
First. the real name Of the
place isn't Key West. anyway,
It's Cayo Hueso. 50 dubbed by
some early seafaring Spaniards,
In spite Of the way 1t sounds, 1t
means Bone Island"
The name results from some
rather outstanding prehistoric
activity among the natives,
Seems they set the place aside
as Q battle-ground and used it so
faithfully that their bones were
soon strewn all over the island,
Pirate Headquarters
After the Indians had sue
cessfully exterminated each
other, the pirates moved in and
made the little island q head
quarters for freebooters. They
got 50 annoying that the United
States established a base there
in 1928 and stayed on till today.
In the meantime, the Key
Westers became thoroughly
mixed up in their blood line
which descends through Ba-
hamas' Englishmen. Spanish,
Cuban and Yankee seafaring
transients, and somewhere along
the way picked up the title OF
"Conchs." To further make the
place different, it's the only truly
tropical town in the United
states and it's never had frost.
The city takes up the entire
island. It has q romantic, old
