J dosing. Of course you win always
i fnroko the ancient history in our
letters. You will be thinking about
rroiinit-hnsr dav. Abe Lincoln and
Valentines day when you get this.
Christmas in P. I. is certainly nov
,.i in fact so much so. that no spirit
seemed present as compared with the
. sMsnn in I'. S. A. It is strange in-
ideed to experience Christmas with
J grass and trees green, sun flaming
hot and the day so summerisn mat
one doesn't care to take a walk, un
less it be in the shade.
Our vacation from December 17 to
31 was spent in seeing some of the
provincial life and in helping out
at two Epworth League institutes.
We. with Lois and Orville Davis, a
fine young missionary couple, travel
ed about 1.2o0 kilometers (750 miles)
thru barrios, by rice fields, eocoanut
groves, across rivers by bamboo bal
sas (rafts) and many kilometers along
the ocean. We saw the farmers, men,
women and children, too, harvesting
rice cutting a stalk or two at a
time, binding it into handfuls. then
into bunches, which are left in the
sun for a few days to dry completely.
Then comes the threshing, usually
done by laying a huge woven mat
affair on the ground around a center
pole to which are tied horses or eara
baos. The animals are driven round
and round, thus tramping out the
rice grains. There are threshing ma
chines in some places, but we didn't
see any. The great number of na
tives in the provinces merely exist
working to eat to live. The children,
however, usually seem happy and
laugh and call out "Americano" when
we drove by.
There is no more depressing sight
than an old skeleton of a brown
woman, ragged and haggard, strug
gling to keep the earthly life a short
time longer by working in the field
or selling in the market. But there
is no more beautiful sight than a
eocoanut grove silhouetted against an
evening sky all scarlet and gold and
purple. The eocoanut palms seem to
me like so many guarding sentinels.
I saw for my first time the Filipino
boys "shinny" right up one of those
towering, smoolh-trunked palms and
knock down some eocoanut a for us
while we were picking up pretty sea
shells. We saw and took pictures of
old look-out towers at three different
points along the shore. The Spanish!
used them to watch for the Moro
(Mohammedans) pirates that looted
the shores.
We saw a pottery factory a long,
crude, grass-covered shed, under
which the men took just wet clay
and sand and soon fashioned big
earthen water jars or pots. I now;
realize more the meaning of youth
being the clay and God. the Potter,
working his people, the potter's wheel
to mould the clay. At another place
a man makes the best bows and ar
rows (for archery) in the world, out
of "Palma brava" wood, one of the
strongest and most pliable woods in
the world, grown only in the Zam
bales Mountains in the Philippines.
In Baliwag province we saw many
natives weaving the Baliwag hats,
which are the highest priced straw
hats made anyplace. Many of the
better ones sell up to 75.00 Pesos
($37.r0) each, according to quality.
Many a hat requires as long as six
or eight weeks' work to make it.
One other item of Filipino life in
teresting to me was the experience
we had of dining with them. We
Americans ate with them in the dor-
mitory dining room at Vigan Insti-i
tute. Of course, we were with E. L. '
delegates and most of them are a
bit higher type than tha average, but
at that Irving and I helped sing pep
songs instead of eating their rice,
vegetable stew and "bagoon" sauce
(a sauce made out of tiny picketed,
or rather deteriorated fish). Some
missionaries have learned to eat na
tive food, 'tis a blessing of course.
But we would starve first. Our group
dil this in order to help increase
their social abilities of conversing, '
singing pep songs, etc.
At the two E. L. Institutes at Lin
gayen and Vigan both on the shores
of the China sea Irving conducted
training classes in Scoutmaster lead
ership and I did some accompanying
and singing. Christmas dinner and
the day were spent with Mr. and Mrs.
Joe Moore in Vigan. They are old
.Nebraska Wesleyan friends. It is de-(
lightful to be in their home. '
Three days were spent up in Ba
guio in the mountains. The tempera
ture is extremely different there in
the evening we had the doors and
the windows of the cottage closed,
heavier clothes on and eat by the
fireplace. We slept under four army
blankets. We shivered, but I liked
it.fi My cheeks got a few roses on
.them again. During the day it was
quite warm. I played my first game
of golf. The humidity in the at
mosphere is what makes it seem
colder. Irving inspected and in
structed in Scouting as well as en
joyed a bit of vacation.
It is good to be back to our hum
ble home, sweet home again. You see.
this was rny first time to be away
from my own home. Since New
Years is a legal holiday and came
on Sunday, the schools had an addi
tional day vacation yesterday, Janu
ary 2. Work began today and I have
again begun to think in terms of les
son plans, hundreds of minds under
brown faces, themes galore, books and
a routine schedule. Our school will
be out March "24th.
You no doubt are enjoying the zest
of icy winds and snow and some
times you wish there were none, but
human nature is perverse now that
to see or feel any frost or snow is out
of the question for us. we would like
to feel the tingle of it. Instead of
snowdrifts, in our back yard are
banana trees bearing fruit, a poin
setta plant, a royal palm and many
other pretty plants. And, oh, yes, our
Russian neighbor's chickens scratch
ing in the sandy dust in their pen.
Mr. and Mrs. I. F. Wiltse.

From Tuesday's Tily
This noon at the luncheon of the
Rotary club N. C. Abbott, one of
the prominent members of the Ne
braska City club, was present and
gave a very interesting historic
sketch to the members of the local
club relative to the early settlement
of the state and covering the names
of several of the counties of the state
and the pioneer statesmen in whose
honor the counties were named and
which Cass county, named for Gen
eral Lewis Cass of Michigan, Douglas
county, named for Senator Stephen
A. Douglas, one of the authors of the
Kansas-Nebraska bill. Burt and Cum
ing counties, named for two of the
earliest territorial governors of the
state as was Richardson county,
which bears the name of one of the
early territorial secretaries.
Mr. Abbott is one of the great his
torians of the state and his address
this noon was a real treat to the Ro
tarians and gave them an intimate
knowledge of the history of the state
and a clear understanding of some of
the men that had made Nebraska a
state by theic services and sacrifices.

plexion in the country.
You'll want to make your selection this week, too,
