Let's Chat
wir•
the Mainland , . This strange
coral, formation apparently tra-
verses the whole east coast as far
north as New Jersey , . , In
fact, many of the thousands of
yaelats around come from the
north without ever going into the
ocean , . . We saw one Canadian
yacht, converted from a war-
time corvette or fairmile , . It
looked quite smart *
THE drive was beautiful, and
everywhere op the way were
luxurious homes, almost all -I- I
would judge built since the
war . .
FORT Lauderdale is a most
remarkable place . It is the
"American Venice", with 130
miles of inland waterways . .
In fact, for miles, every street
of homes has a road at its back
door and a canal at its front, and
many of the homes have big
yachts tied up to decks on their
front lawns . . * * *
WE drove around the city
saw the yacht anchorage which
is the largest in the United
States, with 3,000 berths . . Then
we took the 30-mile jungle cruise
through the canals arid rivers, and
got a view of the fronts of many
of the magnificent homes . . . * * *
THEN on past the city into
the interior where jungle condi-
18'49-20-4J
tions exist . This cruise-boat "'" "4 +4-+►') 4 -44^*4-+ +4 • *44*-4-40-4-44-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•••-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-*
owner has trained about ten
crocodiles which live there, to
swim out when they hear the
boat, and sure enough they all
did . . He feeds them crack-
ers . . . The large turtles also
come to be fed. , . We all saw
part of a sea-horse which weighs
1,500 pounds; it was mostly sub-
merged and at a distance . .
The trip was a grand one . . .
WE had a wonderful trip Mon-
day . . Left in good time ha
the morning and drove down the
highway to Hollywood . . . Saw
a little of that place, and then
over to the ocean highway down
to Miami Beach-which is miles
long and must haVe a hundred
immense and swank hotels . . * *
THEN we drove over to Miami
op the mainland and around it,
and spent some time at the docks
to see the ships, and then south
about ten miles to the parrot
jungle . . . They have kept part
of it like the original jungle, with
sawdust paths through it, but
'have added to it really because
they have planted numerous im-
ported trees, from every tropical
country . . .

THERE were hundreds of birds
-imported from all over the
world-all remarkable for their
breath-taking colouring ... Many
were in cages, but the parrots
especially were allowed to
about at will; also• peacocks . .
They have a small amphitheatre
where th9y put on. hourly shows
. . . The parrots are trained to
open a series of cans, from large
to small, enclosed in each other
. . Roll over, climb up and down
ropes, and hang on to each oth-
er's claws and- swing like trapeze
artists . . It was quite some-
thing . *
ONE end` of the jungle is
cleared and made into a beauti-
ful lawn and garden with grottos
of color . There is a large
pond where there were numerous
flamingoes-spindly-legged crea-
turesof orange hue which look
a bit like ostriches, but with
legs Ad necks much thinner ...
It was a full day . . . *
SINCE then we have spent
considerable time at the beach and
seeing sights closer to borne...
We spent part of one afternoon
looking at stores on Worth Ave.,
at Palm Beach , . . It is a min-
iature Fifth Avenue, most of the
famous New York stores having
branch stores there . . . Of
course, everything was beautiful
and expensive . *
AS far as that goes, everything
along this coast is expensive . . .
The rents--even for motels-are
terrific . . One family I know
paid $600 for their apartment,

IT 'is a real summer day to-
day . . I don't know what
expected, but I thought the air
would be hot and dry . . In-
stead, it smells and feels like the
damp, clear air of northern re-
sorts in summer . . In fact, it
has a tang that )makes me think

look at the palm trees and realize

WAS in the ocean today-not
to swim; it was too rough , .
,But it was fain and strenuous to
jump the breakers; also had a
nice sun bath , The long
municipal beach here (at Lake
Worth, Fla.) is wonderful, the
sand being fine and white in
colour . . . We had our game of
bridge following dinner and then
a walk . . It is a beautiful,
balmy evening . . . * *

THE VOICE OF
TEMPERANCE
The drinking habit is getting a
terrific hold on the people of
North America. Multitudes of
men and women are becoming
heavy drinkers. The New York
Times 'reports 700,000 chronic
alcoholics in New York State or
'almost one person in every 12 of
the population. The Times pre-
scription for this evil is to treat
the alcoholics as sick men. Well
and good-but the effective way
to curb ap illness is to wipe out
its cause. Yellow dever could
never have been brought under
control merely by treating its
victims as sick men. It is not
enough for the Ontario govern-
ment to hospitalize its advanced
alcoholics as sick men. What is
it doing to prevent them catch-
ing the disbase? Certainly it is
moving in the wrong direction
when it increases the number of
liquor outlets. In the mean-
time more and more of our peo-
ple-both Women and Men-are
becoming the helpleas and hope-
less victims of strong drink.

his family with a cheery, "Well,
how is everything?"
"Oh, John," wailed his wife,
