TRYOt .ETTE TRYON A TRIP UP \ Continued from page 1 features and beauty of their dress made a striking picture. The ourney up the Nile was full of varied coloring and charm; the mud huts of the natives along the banks, where centuries ago civilization and learning were in the van rank of the world, while now and then a great pyramid jutted out of the desert beyond. Nothing seemed so primitive as file crude manner of irrigation. The long poles that lifted the water, the circular tread mill of the ox, the filling of the buckets by hand, the weary toil of the thousands of workers using the same methods that had been employed for centuries, made us realize that we were in a land where progress was slow and where the- mind was being ca'led back through the ages. Journeying further up the Nile the country is alive with Bible history. We were shown the place where, it is said, Pharaoh's daughter found the infant Moses in the bullrushes on the banks of the river. Then the place where the Israelites were held in bonduse by the Egyptians, and also where Joseph and ary fled with the infant Jesus to escape the cruel decree of Herod. Occasionally there was brought to our view long caravans of camels and dromedaries loaded with grain and stores, sheiks with their dark skins and hooded cloaks, women with great water ays on their heads, ozen 1 or cows pushing carts tilled with natives. Across the head of the animal was fastened a curious piece of wood which was adjusted to the rear of the cart and by this method the cart was pushed 'along. Our attention was* drawn to a fleet of nativp sail boats with their long pointed sails, moving with the majesty of great sea birds, their long wings standing perpendicular and adding another picture to the evdr varying scenes. All along the shore were temples and tombs, shrines, obelisks,' pvli us and colonnades, reminders of the richness and brilliancy of those old dynasties, the age of the Ptolemies and the Rameses. Then the ruin of Thebes, at one time the glory and twice the capital of the Upper Nile, the richest city in the world in monuments. Thebes was called the City .if a Hundred Hates, though it had no gates and was never fortified, its monuments were so close together they iwbhbhbimhbhhhm II a c h ? 20% on TATES S is the time to select the 1 lice and NOW the time bottom price.

V The polk county news ~TEEmLE^\ looked like gateways to the city. For ' centuries its ruins have been a vast quarry for millstone and the limeburner, while the jackall has used it for his home. , Following the lecture was a very ^ enjoyable musical program. Mrs. W. ( Dickinson rendered several songs, [amongthem a charming Irish melody ( and an Italian love song. The latter | such as one might have listened to | across the Arno, or floating in a gondola on the Grand Canal in Venice, or from the d^ck of a trabaccolo coming in from the Lido. The rich, warm j* flow of Mrs. Dickinson's voice was full | of richness and melody; there was a ( swing and life to the song so that one ^ could almost feel the dip of the oar, fl the sway of the boatman and the echo ^ from the shore. Miss Martha Jackson closed the en- j tertainnient with several charming songs. Her voice was clear and musi- ,'tcal and her rendering of each song I I a was greatly enjoyed by an apprecia- t live audience. I u Tryon has long been noted for fts , c culture, its lovers of art and music, but i (j no occasion has furnished greater > ^ pleasure to an audience than this pro-',, gram of the Jnion Choral Society. ., s i i BIG SHOW ON APRIL EIGHTH Continued from page 1 I many of the noted shows held an- j nually throughout the South.
