Dear Bill: I think Kipling has been largely responsible for the pop: ularity of Burma among the globe trotters, A fellow on the other side of the world will get down a volume of Kipling’s poetry on a cold winter night, and reading over “Mandalay,” wil dootdo that if there in a Para dive on earth, it is Burma, and also that he will make pilgrimage there at the first opportunity, And 1 think the poet has not exaggerated ite charms h, either, It ts the moat beautiful and — picturesque country imaginable. There are two sights which vis 7, ttors are told to see In Rangoon, it A dMORIN ‘OF A WHACKIN’ WHITE CHEROOT-, C72 ri |nothing el#e, One fe the greal | Sheve Dagon pagoda, and the other is the elephants at work in the tim ber yards.

Harry Weber and Ethel Wilson gave it a refined presentation, and those who came to seo a real naughty dance were natiafied, anyhow, for it is a clever, graceful, agile affair. The “Pana ma-Pacific Rag” and the “1915 Walts” also got a “good hand.” The. Navajo girls’ band, 12 vocal- ists and instrumentalists, is an- other headline attraction. Bert Ross, who talks with an idea of put- ting the speedometer out of busi- ness, set up the laughs.
