The girls were contestants in a recent statewide Beauty contest at Cape Coral. The Gumbo limbo tree is of ancient lineage. Its Wood was used by the Catoosa indians for fishing floats Many years ago. Heroism Romance gone Globe circling trip leaves traveller in a4jaded Haze by Patrick o Donovan London special owns there was a time when a traveller was a hero to others As Well As to him self. The world has not forgot ten nor wholly forgiven the traditional English tra Veller. How Noble was his Inverness Cape and shooting stick. How sensible his flask Sandwich Case and Bug powder. How justified his impregnable suspicions and his raised voice. Now he is reduced to a red eyed unit in an Airport line up. His distinguishing Marks Are a wrinkled Tropi Cal suit a Large folder of travel documents and a col Lection of passport photo graphs carried not for Van Ity but because countries have grown suspicious too and like a pictorial record of his passing. There is no heroism or Romance in his travelling. The hours in the air Are there to be annihilated with drink food and pills. The perfect journey is one that has passed in unconsciousness. Boredom interrupted by twinges of fear and an endless mental arithmetic of counting Down the hours before arrival this is the condition of the Man whose forefathers lived it up on the Orient express for Days at a time. Circles Globe recently i had occasion to go around the world. It is not a very common experience since most people however far they go usually return by the same Way. It was a thoroughly unpleasant experience to be remembered with resentment. It began at London air port solid rather old fashioned full of shops sell ing dolls dressed As guards men or highlanders Tea scented refined decorated in remorseless Good taste. Then came Zurich which was Grubby and sold Turk ish Delight and Amber beads. Karachi had a vaguely military air and served Milky Tea under turning fans. Calcutta was hot and disorganized. Rangoon was Sleazy full of reflective men their Heads tied up in silk cloths like puddings who sat and nursed umbrellas and fiddled with their Bare toes. They sold Che roots there and nothing seemed to happen except that a Moth eaten sort of Jungle seemed to been coaching on the Airport. Hong Kong has the most alarming Airport in the world. You come in Low Over a honeycomb of Chin Ese tenements you shave the Bald top of a Hill you Fly straight at a communist Mountain and land on a Coo Crete Atrip built like the deck of an aircraft Carrier out into the sea. The Chin Ese hostesses have slits at the sides of their skirts. The Money changers ask no questions. They sell foun Tain pens and watches. Hawaii is american and gives a free Glass of Pine Apple juice. The Palm Trees Are neat and disciplined. The Airport is full of Young men carrying their suits in plastic envelopes. The races look mixed and no one tucks in their shirts. The girls look As clean As Hospital nurses. The place Sells Candy comic books yester Day s new York times handbags with Aloha printed on them Popcorn and frankfurters. Tokyo is functional and cheaply modern with a few about inexplicably in their underclothes. The customs men Are polite the hostesses pad about looking de Mure in Kimonos. They sell dolls. Several bars in san Francisco they have several bars and Hall of the . Armed forces looking Young Unmil itary but not at All innocent seem to be waiting for a plane. Some splendid coloured women who Are clearly in the Money Tow Large wailing families that diminish in exact proportion and they Wear the sort of finery that went out with the music Halls. Here they sell Art books and books about the Wilder shores of sex in new York you arrive at a building which is. One of the masterpieces of architecture. The roofs and Walls curve As if they had been shaped by a craftsman s hand. Bridges curve up under the dome to carry you from an elegant restaurant to the ticket counters. It is pure Delight. They have concealed their shops but they sell cameras. Finally London it. Still looks refined still smells of Tea and appears to be run by big hearted amateurs. By now your sleeping Rou Tine is hopelessly disorganized. Time takes its re Venge. You have been Wak ing at two in the morning in Tokyo ready Day at two in the afternoon at san Francisco. You Aire sick of you Are weighed Down with an in spendable assortment of pennies rupees cents and a Large Peculiar Coin with a Palm tree on it. You have been round the world in a jaded Haze. The Clouds Over Karachi were the same As those Over Tokyo. You have not seen the Taj mahal the shwe Dagon the Masakuni shrine the Golden Gate Bridge or the Rockefeller Centre. You have acquired some vile souvenir s and a Strong inclination to stay at Home. You go straight to bed and it is the Only Beautiful thing about the whole Ted ious venture.
