We have ahead of us one of the most

Lave excellent roads all the way. The

At some points rice fields, looking In
the distance like the greenest of greeti
lawns, stretch away as far us the eye
can see. If you want color, If you
want to feel the romance and nnatery
of an Oriental twilight, puss this uuy
