The trip can also be made by train We have ahead of us one of the most scenic, spectacular and thrilling autoWe will mobile trips in the world. have excellent roads all the way. The Philippines are, in fact, a paradise for autoists, possessing 3, COO miles of tine macadamized roads. The first part of the trip Is through typical small towns and then across the central plain of Luzon and through several rich and fertile provinces, where tropical vegetation Is seen at its best. Here one is impressed with the great agricultural wealth of the Philippines, which represents one of the Easts greatest producing areas,, with the advantage of immense natural resources for the development of further production. It is regrettably true that even in the United States there is far from any real understanding of the potentialities of the islands. At some points rice fields, looking In the distance like the greenest of green lawns, stretch away as far as the eye can see. If you want color, if you want to feel the romance and mystery of an Oriental' twilight, pass this way as the red eyed sun at the end of the dying day is slowly sinking behind the unending expanse of green, fields., At first you cry out in ecstacy at the gorgeous scene. But as you ride along, your eyes fastened on the panorama of tints and colors, and with the impenetrably black Oriental night coming on fast, you become enthralled. You no longer try to express jour feelings. You cannot. You realize that those now fast changing, colorful masterpieces in the heavens and on the land- - the trip to Baguio within the im ins of hundreds of thousands of Filipinos. Not only is there sufficient power in this river to electrify a line from Manila to Baguio, but to operate the street railways of Manila, light the city and furnish power for manufae-- , turlng concerns. But we have now arrived at Camp One. .From this point the scenery rapidly changes as the elevation increases. We are traveling over the famous Benguet road, the construction of which through the mountains is a most remarkable engineering triumph. At places the road is blasted out of the solid granite.

The Philippines are rich In hydroelectric possibilities. This power is the cheapest power on earth. And it is everlasting. Your traveloguer is neither a prophet nor the son of a prophet, but he predicts that one day there will be innumerable Philippine government owned hydro-electri- c plants In this canyon we are now passing through. Think of the possibilities of such a project! Today the trip from Manila to Baguio is too expensive for the average Manila worker and his family, many of whom may live and die without beholding the wondrous beauties of their own island of Luzon.

Some of the turns are so sharp it is impossible to see 20 feet ahead, and we seem to be perilously near the jumping off place. We wonder if it is safe to lean out and peer into the canyon far below, and when we do we are perfectly satisfied we are flirting with death. Yet the trip is a safe one, providing our driver has better nerves than our own. All too soon we reach the outskirts of Baguio, a city among the clouds, and are rather surprised at the modern city we find It to be. In ten years Baguio has grown from a village of huts to the now justly famed mountain resort of the Philippines, sometimes called the Philippine Simla. It is undoubtedly destined some day to become a large city. Baguio ranges In elevation from 4,500 to 5,500 feet and is surrounded practically on all sides by high mountain ridges and hogsbacks towering into the skies at a height of almost 8,000 feet. Aside from the scenery, which Is noteworthy, the great blessing of Baguio is its temperate climate, which is indeed a godsend to those impoverished by the tropical temperatures of the Not only is the mountain lowlands. air rich in ozone, but it has been demonstrated to be extraordinarily free from germs of all kinds.
