Tipping in Japan, where the

established anyway, is being
discouraged by the tourist in
dustry, Ministry of Transpor-
tation, in that country.
All employees of hotels and
ryokanS (innS) are being in
Structed not to accept tips and
similar instructions have gone
out to tour conductors, guides
and restaurants.
The ministry points out that
this is being done for the bene-
fit of tourists and notes that,
where it is appropriate, a serv-
ice charge is added to bills
which takes care of any tips
that should be paid.
AS a matter of fact, the min
istry would appreciate it if WIS.,
itors would stop forcing tips or
employees. So go ahead, be

ABOLITION OF TAX
AIDS RESIDENTS,
TOURISTS ALIKE

New Zealand has man
aged to please both its tax
payers and its tourists by
abolishing a tax.
The levy, which since
1889 has required people
earning money while in the
country to pay taxes on the
income before leaving, has
been abolished, according
to Neil Munro, New Zea-
land government travel
commissioner in New York.
For the New Zealand
taxpayer. this is good news
because the paperwork in
volved in collecting the tax
costs more than revenue
received. The tourists bo-
nus comes in a reduction of
red tape he must get
through in leaving the
country.

Leaf-watching, which is be-
coming a more popular sport
each fall, is drawing nigh.
Highway jaunts at fall foliage

than 100 million pleasure trips

tion estimates.

interest in the changing of the
colors, bus lines and railroads

Beginning usually in late
September with the sumac and
the Virginia creeper at the

progressively to the valleys, and
progressively South through the
end of October.
The successful leaf-watcher
needs to keep a wary eye on
the weather and the calendar
A hot, dry summer can spoil
the color. Early successive frosts
can speed the coloring process
In the New England noun
tains, some color begins to show
in mid-September. In the
northern areas, the first week
in October brings excellent color
in normal years. The peak is
reached in mid-October in
Massachusetts, and in southern
New Hampshire and Vermont.

MILFORD, Del.-During the
last half Of September, this
community, midway between
Delaware's capital, Dover, and
Rehoboth Beach, will celebrate
its 175th anniversary.
While Milford is not quite as
old as some of Delmarva's COM

old homes and buildings will
be opened for public viewing
Also on display, in public

esting collections of relics from
Milford's past.

Of particular interest to vis-
itorS will be the Parson Thorne
Mansion located on "Silver
Hill" in the northwestern sec
ton of the city. 1t is believed
to be the oldest dwelling in the
area and was the home of the
Rev. Sydenham Thorne, CO.

Milford.
An English Colonial type
structure. built just prior to
the American Revolution, it
still retains many of its orig

CAPE MAY, N. ]. - This
southernmoSt resort in New
Jersey bears the name of one
of Henry Hudson's captains,
who first sailed up the Della
ware with him, and later re-
turned to start a settlement
in the area, Captain Mey.
Since then visitors have been
attracted to the area. They
first came by stage, and some
stayed to build homes through
the county, others continued
on down to Cape Island, as
this town was originally called.
The area is scattered with
buildings of historical and ar
chitectural significance built
during the 18th and 10th CEN
turies. Visitors can reach here
by either the Garden State
parkway or Route 9.
Old Church
Entering the county from
the north via Route 8, at Sea-
vile the visitor can pause at
the very small, almost child
| like playhouse, Friends Meet
ing House. This was built in
I17l6 and services are held ev-
cry Sunday. Nearby is the Sea-
vile Methodist Church, dedi-
Gated in 1857.
Further south, at Ocean
View, is the David Townsend
House, built in 1876. where in
teresting old glass can still be
seen in the windows. The south
end of the structure is the
original building. Near here is
the John Townsend House, old
est in the county, said to have
been erected with the aid of
Indian labor, and wher e
Friends gathered for meetings
before building in Seaville.

which was built prior to the
Revolutionary War, sta n d S.
The front dates from 1900.
The Old Court House of 1848
still stands there. The Histori-

the area, and worth a visit.

Who hasn't heard the tour
ist who considers himself on
of the Original Jaded Trav,
elers and means for an lou
of the way place off the beatel
path?"
There are still a few resort
builders who keep an ear tuned
to such plants, firm in the be-
lief that a small percentage o
Jaded Ones really mean it.
To become such a builder
the first thing needed is money
The next thing is to find the
spot, such as an island with
perfect weather and scenery
and little else, like no drink
ing water. no telephones. few
people and no power supply.
Such a venture is taking
shape under Just those condi-
tionS at the Little Dix Bay re-
sort on Virgin Gorda in the
British Virgin Islands, "a miles
northwest of Tt. Thomas and
LII miles from Miami.
Isolation Spectacular
Due to open in 1864, it is
being developed by Laurence S
Rockefeller as an aid to the
economic program Of the Brit
iSh Virgin Islands.
When We put ashore there a
few weeks ago, expecting pi-
rates at least, the isolation was
spectacular. the clear water
even more so and the climate
superb.
But the first units of the re-
sort were mere masonry and
timber skeletons, started in
July of last year. The resort
is to open with 25 rooms. Great
office buildings have been built
in less time.
Down across the brig h t
white beach Strode the answer
-amiable Scotsman Euan Mac
Farlane, resident representative
on the project.
Its a simple matter of
logistics," he smiled patiently.
Just as an example" he ex-
planned. "the copper guttering
we ordered from a fabricating
firm in San Juan is only about
six months late.
When we finally gave up and
started tracing it, we found
that the truck driver who was
taking it to the docks for ship
ment here stopped at a party
and we heard no more about
the guttering for weeks"
Grinning like a man who had
Just invented it, Mr.. MacFar-
lane pointed to the long-over-
due shipment, piled at the con-
struction site.
I didn't press him for de-
tails of how Coppermine Point
