While in Ottawa I talked with a man who had recently returned from a trip abroad. Not knowing much about it his impression of Singapore was most interesting. He found it richly deserved. , the name of "Garden City." It has an abundance of flowers and natural green areas, Orchids, expensive and highly regarded here as an exotic flower, were everywhere, in hotel rooms, on restaurant tables. It is grown in profusion in flower beds, and. as we never see it, on vines of orchard hedges. The climate in October was ideal and people were friendly.
