' FROM RIO "One would say that at my age, I had no business sleeping out at night on the beach, plunging through tropical jungles, where per- pendicular vines hanging from tree HmbB form tight cages, climbing trees and sawing off orchid-bearing limbs and finally plunging Into the surf and wrestling with a 150-pound fish and all this last Saturday and Sunday. I was chief fire builder and director of culinary activities , en- joyed It all very much and feel none the worse for it. The (ish epi- sode was umusing. The creature was floundering in the surf and was probably somewhat exhausted. We rushed in and fought it up on the beach, then tied It on the jeep and drove home to Rio, flaunting our conquest in the eyes of a very im- pressed Sunday afternoon traffic It Is now all over Rio how we caught our lish with our bare hands. "We now liuve our new business location and a very good one. There is u change in our nume, with new stationery, curds, advertising, addi- tions to the stuff and the opening, — probably about the last of January —to plan for. Two architects are working on alterations and we Bhould have something really nlco." —Excerpt from letter of Lloyd George, TOWER TREES Greensburg, Indiana, is noted for having two 15-foot trees growing from the top of the county court- house tower.
