    TOUR OF THE WORLD
Interesting Descriptive Letters by
Mr. and Mrs. H. Montague

Mr. and Mrs. H. Montague I'orter

untrics wlilch they visit.
A unique plan has been adopted
by Mr. and Mrs. Porter to give
their relatives In America the bone
fit of a description of the people and
places of greatest Interest. General
letters are written. These are sent
to Mr. Porter's mot her. at Los An
geles; after she has read them she
sends them to a relative, who In
turn sends to a relative, who In turn
vends to another relative. In tliis
way the letters travel over the I'
jiitel States all the way from Call
fornia to Connecticut.
Letter No. 16, written lust sum
luer at Sydney, Australia, contains
ao much that w ill Interest lit raid
readers that we are pleased to pub
lish It:
'Rothesay," Lower Wycombe ltd..
Neutral Bay, Sydney, Aus.
My dear family and friends:
This cordial, hospltuble people In
making us feel welcome In "Sunny
Australia." keep us so much occupied
accepting invitations, or better plan
ning how not to accept them, that
our home friends are not receiving
ilie individual attention they de
serve in letters, perhaps, and yet
it is ail making our sojourn here an
unusually pleasant one and there
-tenia such a genuine ring In every
courtesy.
Crossing the North Atlantic were
two most Interesting Sydney wo
men, and they told us of the beauty
of Sydney.
From the people of Melbourne,
her rival city, again we hoard, "Oh.
you will love Sydney," "Have you
be (ii to Sydney?" and "Sydney's
h;irbour la glerlous!" Naturally, we
wre quite prepared to thin!; Bj il
ney a "place beautiful" but. do you
you know that despite all this pre
paration, and seeing the books of
views and post curds ns well, and
an occasional painting; word or pic
ture had not given us the least con
ception of what a marvelous setting
Nature's handiwork had given to
these people for ilie building of Mm
City Beautiful.
There seems to have been a great
upheaval; volcanic rocks and bould-
rs rising often many feet Hbove the
waters of the bay, and on entering
ibis harbour the north and south
heads are two neeil'Tn dangerous
'...oking promlntories Standing as
huge senllnels of warn 'g to those,
who entt r here This rocky forma
tion Is piled up on elt! r side, and
the harbour is so d(;i that ocean
liners come within a two to five min
ute walk of the business center.
These myriads of anna terminal

all of rocks, simply keep the grasp

further inroads, but the hemes ncs
tie around, with the terraced gap
deos reaching to the water's edge,
wherever there is soli enough to
permit a blade of grass to grow,
knowing their rocky foundation is a
t-afe one, and eaxh home is built
with the windows aud verandas with
the one idea of securing the best
view point, and being uch a hilly
city and with the one hundred sixty
miles of shore line, you cannot con
lve how lovely it is to come by
ferry from The Heads up to the
Circular Quay. Thousands of red

Magnolias. Pepper, Norfolk Pint

luxuriate in this climate.
Well! ycu cannot yet understand
this one of the world's beauty cen
ter until you see it.
I think the Panama canal will be
the medium of bringing America aud

You cannot flatter these people
more highly than to lkkeu them to
Americans, and they perhaps are
more so than like the Knglish, but
a Mrs. Montefiore, lecturer and
most traveled woman, who has just
returned from one or two years in
V. S. A., was present where I made
a "Travelogue" tnlk for an evening
Salon, as the hostess was pleased
to call It, and afterward I asked
her If she found the Australians
(she Is not Australian born) were
like the Americans. "No, not at
all, Mrs. Porter, the Australians nre
aping and working along Kngland s
traditional lines, while Americans
have stepped absolutely away, and
developed an Individuality all their
own."
II. Mont wrote me this wek from
Melbourne, asking me to write of
our social affairs, and as muh more
ns I could to help in tills general
letter writing I rather wish he had
dime the social part, as I feel a lit
tle modest about telling of my pur
tlcular part; but Mamie Punch and
I have each made three addresses
here Rlnoe the first of May, telling
them of different phases of Ameri
can life, my part especially what
our women are doing in tlnb life a
long philanthropic lines, the child
welfare movement and helping them
see what great possibilities and
great responsibilities res with the
WOtnaH here The listeners have
M-otued to find pleasure, and the
newspapers have given pleasant no
tice of these evenings.
We are sojourning long enough to
make a proper study of the place,
the people and their ideals, fc.nel our
particular form of interns! brings us
into such close touch that it is prov
ing a decidedly educational trip. To
visit a public school here, a permis
sion card of entrance i- essential,
and if you go on a certain day . say
when examinations an being car
ried en, or If "Inspectors" (what
we i all City or County Superintend-
nts) are present, we nre simply re
qaaatad to return on another day.
(This happened to Maine and me
in vlsitinir a training school for
teachers.) No offense intended or
felt either, ns you must simply un
derstand in travel that customs so
vary In different countries that vis
itors to be huppy and to be proper
ly understood must fall in with said
customs, because our practices are
just as unusual to them.
We wore recently Invited to hear
a lecture by the Mrs. Montetiore of
whom I spoke In an earlier part of
this leitter ctr her "Impressions
gleaned from a year's sojourn In
America " By the by, she is Lon
don born, and a writer of some a
bility, and widely travelled. Her
ospeelal study of us was through
philanthropic avenues, the settle
ment and community problems, child
welfare movement, anil a study of
our school system, from the Kinder
garten through to the i'niversity
She began with Columbia Unlversit .
before Revolutionary days known us
King's College, and her observations
were most interesting, Indeed; in
vhsitlng our many Institutions she
went observing the things worth
while. In visiting the Chicago I'ni
versity she was Interested to find
two buildings the exact duplicates of
"Maudlin Tower" and "Old' Christ
Church" from Oxford University in
Kngland. The very vines seemed
to be growing over these copies that
she had seen at Oxford, and inline
diately she loomed transported to
the originals. Then il was her de
sire to enter the place of worship a
few minutes, and the request vvifcs
granted. On entering, to tier a
ma.tMllelit , a group of students w . re
rehearsing a play with much levity
mingled with the duty in hand, and
her guide vvat'hid her astonishment
and somewhat shocked air. over to
the "proper" Knglish mind a ieri
ous Impropriety, lustead of leuwnu
her listeners with that thought in
mind, she finished (he pkture with:
"You see the Anieiuan idea is ever
present, to find the utility for ev
eiythlng, there Is no wun(e due to
sentimentality. Here was a need,
and a place to meet the need."
You came away from her lecture
with su;h a comfortable feeling ov
er her kindness, in weak places, and
an appreciation of her looking for
the worth while rather than for the
weak points. So in writing to you
now or talking to you In Hie future.
I hope I may have her happy way
of not being unkindly critical, and
to renumber the modifying clausi i.
otherwise look to the reason why.
Recently, a Mr. Ramsay, a very
democratic Australian who has
shewn us many ourteslts. rather
arcfully introduced the iubject of
the Japanese question and out Cal
ifornia point of view, feeling that
w e probably had a keen hat reel, etc.,
as the yellow journalism might lndi
oate. or does, to tluse people. Af
ter finding cur real point of view,
he invited Montague and me to go
to Watsons Pay, the South Head,
for the magnifhent view, from a
high point; and later to the ostrich
fat m near by. The owner should
visit the Cavvston farm near Los
Angeles :o ain some i ommerciai:.- m

seemed a most crude, indifferent
sort of plan-, al; hough there sTOfO

Revwtlng to the above oonversa
Hon about the Japs, Mr. Ramsay
said since finding we did not have
the prejudice for Japanese, even
though from the west coast of I'. S.
A.; he would be so pleased to have
us meet the members of the Japan
ese Antarctic exploring exped Ion,
encamped not far away, through his
special Introduction from the Jap
anese Consul. This pleased t i
greatly, and crossing over on the
ferry to their camp, he told us their
story. Firstly, Isn't It amazing that
that nation having lived five hund
red yenrs, in the last fifty have
some fourteen stalwart men who
have pledged themselves by oath to
never return to Japan alive without
having accomplished their miisslon
This party had not reached the
south magnetic pole when they
found they were not properly equip

losing most of their dogs. They re
turned to Australia and are waiting
for their new and properly fitted
vessel to arrive from Japan in Sep

private and official quarters, and
sitting around their little, roughly
made table (no lacquer ware In thlis
tent I we were shown charts and
magazines, the latter were primed
tn both their own language and the
Knglish. They gave me a Japanese
paper with the pictures and account
of their expedition, and a gift of
some of their candies (lure called
"lollies"). One showed nie the

the hoods, the trousers and the
coats, and the great slumber robe,
shaped like a night or bed slipper,
calling it a "sleeping bag." This they
cover up In, or rather get Into it.

erwise their faces would freeze.
Professor David of the University
of Sydney was the scientist in the
Shackleton expedition to the south
pole. We nut Mrs. David, his wile,
lit Challis House the night Mainl
and I made a Joint address or talk
to the I'niversitv Club. She Invited
our whole party of seven to their ,omes ilio"K

the local papers gave most exact
details. I Indulged In an exact re
production of the "anointing spoon"

The Australian people have the
artistic temperament, as manifested
in two ways. First, every home Is
built with the Idea of a "view". The
entrance to many of the houses from
the "foot paths" or sidewalks, we
say, will be from the rear so the
terraced gardens may slope down to
the water's edge, thus avoiding a
public footpath In front. Thus, you
can scarcely tell which is the kit
chen side of the house because it is
till made so attractive.
Tiie people do take so much pride
in their gardens (not vegetables, as
we peak of a garden, but Just
flowers). Then, too, the ladies
without exception nre always so
tidy never appear unless in per
feet toilet. The second phase of
the artistic temperament is evidenc
ed in the great numbers of musical
people, both vocal and inst rumen t al
talent in such greait numbers of
persons.
This has been a musical year,
too, opening with Sousa's sixty
pieces. He was most popularly re
eelved. We met a Captain llrown
low's wife, who planned a motor
launch trip to include H, to meet
the ladies of the Sousa family, but
that last week It only rained and
rained, so we were dll appointed.
Sousa was mctt popular, although
sc ma musical people are super-, l it
leal, as we find in any coniiminity.
We were all inieres:ed . in the
Sheffield Choir of two hundred
voices. It certainly was a magnifi
cent chorus. We were pleased ov
er the warm reception they had en
route from Kngland aa they passed
through I1. S. A.
Madame Melba arrives on Monday
with her grand opera company, and
she has a very choice repertoire.
Tickets are a guinea each. It will
be no difficulty to have a full house
the entire time, era are told, be
cause people will go to hear music.
I heard her in Philadelphia the U. i
winter we tired there, so will let
that suffice, utiles. a good fairy
comfort and beauty as you traverse
miles of calm, quiet water.
Our custom here would seem
most inconvenient to our powtjnen
and for all practical purposes in our
American ways of thinking. Very few
houses are numbered, in fa:t. on
ly the new ones built as double
houses, or flats for rental purposes
The named houses are quite impossi
ble to remember very often, as the
aborigines name s are used, Kallista,
Coomalgah. Corunna, Hoemham, Wee
roona, Myoora, Willyatna, KurtSC!,
Oonah. Kooramil, Rangattira. Wava
tah, I amellnh, Nada, Goumea. Ata
ml, Lugano. Cloom. Gascorgne, etc.
The major part of the names are of
this type, and in brass or metal
plates on every gate, also the doors
or door mats In front. Kve ry house
has a fenee about it and great
pride is taken in the gardens. Peo
ple more recently from Kngland or
ether countries have used names
indicating same as Westminster.
Kenilworth, The Mungalow, Dart
mouth, Arizona, San Diego, The
Sands, The Nook, etc. Really, It
is rather a pretty idea. I shall al
mojat feel like ndopting it. And one
orher custom is the "afternoon tea."
At four o'clock we have it every
