FROM
Peg in Washington
Washington. D. C. Jan. in
Hear Marian:
From 83 degrees on Sunday afternoon in
Miami to 15 degrees that night in Wash
ington was our chilling experience in Hying
home from an inspection trip of the Ever
glades National Park, Secretary and Mrs.
Iionsl.n MrKay had a strenuous five days
in the southland but memories of the balmy
weather, the bright blue oecan, hays, and
streams, the superfine meals, and friendly
hosts will remain for a long time.
It would take mc several letters to de
scribe nil that happened and all that we
saw. Among one of the outstanding recol
lections was the boat trip through the park
lakes encircled with mangroves and button
woods to the roo!;cries w here thousands of
birds were nest building. The birds, lary
phimed egrets, ibis, and herons, because
ot their white feathers made it appear that
the trees weer in full bloom as there were
masses of birds on the rookeries. The small
boats moved from lake to lake throtigh
mangrove tunnels. Another boat trip that
was enjoyed in the leisure of a Saturday
altcrnoon was through the Ten Thousand
Islands on the west coast of Florida. We
Were taken out on the Gulf of Mexico and
on the way back both of the boat loads
tried a bit of fishing but with only one
non edible fish landed.
The problems of the Everglades area and
the Seminole tribes were pointed out to the
Secretary during the inspection tours and
discussed with him in arranged confer
ences. However, it is not Interior problems
that I propose to report to you merely
the lighter side of the Florida adventure.
Kor example, the marvelous spot on the
west coast of Everglades where we spent
part of Saturday and regretfully left on
Sunday morning. On Peace River, it was in
deed peaceful. River traffic of sport fisher
men's boats and a few commercial craft
added color but no noise to the scene. We
were housed in new apartments of the club
occupied for the first time by our grouo,
and the rooms were fresh, attractive, and
commodious. The chrf formerly worked for
Von Hindrnburg and was brought over by

-BY ALENE (PEG) PHILLIPS
Itarron Collier, the father of the present
operators of the Rod and Gun club, follow
ing a European visit. One of those chefs
who delights in artistic as well as gustatory
triumphs. A first course that entranced us
was individual strawberry trees. Bright red
berries were s!uck on the branches of a
simulated feathery green plant in a small
white and red flower pot, the top of which
was covered with powdered sugar. Plucking
the berries from the trees and dipping
them in the sugar was a painless and pleas
ant exercise. ,
On the route between the east and west
sections of the Everglades, we stopped for
an airboat ride through the shallow waters
near a ranger station. The boat's propeller
is in the air hack of the passenger's bench,
and the liu'ht boat can skim through three
inches of w.-.ter, through grasses and reeds,
at a clip of some 35 miles an hour. Seated
so near the water or ground the speed seems
even greater. A grc::t thrill it was to follow
the tiny creek through the glades and then
when we swung around in a wider spot, out
flew a seat cushion straight into the pro
peller blades. The cushion was thoroughly
chewed hy the blades and a shower of feath
ers enveloped us for a moment. Hours later
I was still combing them out of the "curls."
The park service men wondered whether
Secretary McKay would be willing to ride
on the boat. As we watched his boat re
turning, we discovered he was running the
airboat. which has a stick similar to an air
plane to guide it, and the park people had
no further doubts as to his participation in
the tour.
So much more to tell of the glamour of
Miami Beach, of the famous Vizcava estate,
where we found the director to be Robert
Tyler Davis, former director of the Portland
Art Museum, of the trees and birds and
wildlife, of the dinner party given bv Ore
gon automobile dealers for the Secretary
and Mrs. McKay and the other displaces
Oregonians in Interior, of the many enter
tainment features but maybe ou'li let me
ramble on bit more next week
