All nlwird ! Let s co ! We re start
!r; fnm Manila, the piv;t i,:iitirr..i.if.
AiHorU-niiixoa Oriental ami will
travel by auI.m.oMle 2ik)j;'I'- I"
north to I'as"!", Uie summer rarlln! of
the I'lillirpines. The trip can also fce
niaile by train
We linve tt'ieail of "s one of the most
scenic, spectacular mid tlaiilin- anto
mo!Ue trips in tlie world. We will
have cxwlleut roads all fue vuiy. The
IMillippiucs nre. In fact, a iaratlie for
autolsts, possossins 3,.'XiO miles of fine
macadamized roads.
The Orel part of the trip Is through
typical small towns and then across
the central plain of Luzon d thrtu:.-h
several rich and fertile provln.vs,
where tropical vesetatlon is seen at its
best Here one Is linpresst-J iih the
trout agricultural wealth of the Philip
pines, which represents one of the
'last's greatest producing areas, with
the advantage of Immense nntural re
sources for the development of further
production. It is re-rottnhlj true that
even in the United Siates there Is far
from any real understanding of ll.e
potentialities of the Islands.
At some points rice fields looking In
the distance like the gn-wst of :reon
lawns stretch away as far us the eye
can see. If jou want color, if you
want to feel the roinr.iice and mystery
of tin Oriental twilight, pass this wa
as the red eyed sun at the end of Hie
dying day is slowly sinking behind ttie
unending expanse of green fields. At
first' you cry out In ocstacy at the
gorgeous scene. Hat as u ride along,
your eyes fastened on the panorama
of lints and colors, mid with the im
penetrably black GiU-mal nk'ht torn
Ing on fast, you become enthralled.
You no longer try to express your feel
ings. Ton cannot. You realize that those
now fast changing, colorful master
pieces In the heavens and on the land
scape are pictures that no man can ad
equately describe nor human hands du
plicate. Ho what's the use of f ryirg !
True, these are but Impressions, lint
the traveloguer consider himself Jvs'i
Oed In mentioning them, for they are a
part of the trip to Uaguio and return.
Indeed,' the gorgeous sunsets In nil
parts of the Philippines leave an Im
pression on the mind of the tourist that
Is everlasting.
We leave the palms and tropical
foliage and enter the zorte of ru.wd
pine. We pass from the soft, Incense
laden air of the warm lowlands to the
crisp. Invigorating ozone of the tem
perate zone, all -within a few hours'
time.
For mile after mile the road now fol
lows the tortuous course of a river, the
road lying In the bottom or n the
rocky sides of a granite canyon.
The Philippines are rich In hydro
electric possibilities. This power Is the
cheapest power on earth. And it Is
everlasting. Your traveloguer Is nei
ther a prophet nor the son of a proph
et, but be predicts that one day there
will be Innumerable Philippine govern
ment owned hydro-electric 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 tho wondrous
beauties of their own Island of Luzon.
Think of what a blessing It would be
to Filipino mothers and children to
feel upon their fevered brows the cool,
Invigorating breezes of the mountain
tops, now so near and yet so far! With
the Philippine government owning its
own electric railways and hydro-electric
plants It would be possible to bring
.1.. , n,i,.in within the mean c
hundreds of Mum-and of Filipinos.
Net only Is there sudicient power In
this river to electrify a line from Ma
nila to l'.i:;u, but to operate the
sucet u.i'w.ijs of Manila, lisht the
city wad fiiru sh power for manufac
turing e.it.eenn.
l'.ul vi! l-.'Mo now arrived at Camp
One. r'rom Il ls point the scenery
rapidly changes r.s the elevation In
ercjv's. We nre traveling over the
faino:; lUn:uet rond. the construction
of which through the mountains is
most remarkable engineering triumph.
At places ti e rond Is biased out of tho
solid ::r:uiite. Hiding on the ed,-e of a
100 foot i iec'pke makes one feel like

"At times we seemed perilously near
the jumping off place."
he Is on the rim of the world. Some of
the turns are so sharp It Is Impossible
to see :t feet ahead, mid we seem to
he perilously near the Jumping off
:!.-icc. We wonder if it Is safe to lean
o;:t mid peer into the cnriyoti fur below,
and when we do we nre perfectly sat
isfied we nre flirting with death. Yet
the trip Is a safe one, providing our
driver has better nerves than our own.
All too soon we rench the outskirts
of Baguio, a city among the- clouds,
and are rather surprised- at the modem
city we find It to be. In ten years Ba
guio has grown from a village of huts
to the now Justly famed mountain re
sort of the Philippines, sometimes call
ed the Philippine Klmla. It Is un
doubtedly destined some day to become
a large city.
Baguio ranges In elevation from
4,500 to 8,000 feet nnd Is surrounded
practically on nil s'des by high moun
tain riilues and "hoshn'ks" towering
into the skies at a height of almost
8,000 feet.
Aside from the scenery, which Is
noteworthy, the great blessing of Ba
guio Is Its temperate climate, which Is
indeed a godsend to thoe Impoverish
ed by the tropical temperatures of the
lowlands. Not only is the mountain
u I r rich In ozone, but It hns been dem
onstrated to be extraordinarily free
from germs of all kinds.
Knell year during Mic hot season the
school teachers of the entire archipela
go nre enabled by the government to
spend a month at the teachers' enmp
In Baguio for recreation and confer
ence on school work. American army
offiecrs and their families also go to
Baguio for the hot months.
And now that your trnvelo;uer has
you In Baguio, he believes be will leave
yoo there, for there are many Interest
ing side trips to take, and, besides,
Baguio Is the most delightful place for
vacation In the entire Orient.

Every now and then you hear a neighbor
complain that "he doesn't seem to have much
luck with tires."
Send him to us.
The minute a man begins to question the
service his tires arc giving him, he's ready to
listen to reason.
Our business is built on the principle that
the only way to get better tire service is to get
better tires to start with.
That's why we have taken the representa
tion for U. S. Tires.
"' V
U. S. Tires have a reputation for quality.
Built up through years of creating better
tires. Such as the straight side automobile tire,
the pneumatic truck tire.
It is not by chance that U. S. Tires are made
by the oldest and largest rubber concern in
the world.
We are proud to represent U. S. Tires in
this community.
