,af I J ' A l , l Qi, it ., . d Manana IS goo enough for me! Palma, the capital of Mallorca, one of the Bal- earic lslands belonging to Spain, proved to be good liberty. None of us had visited it before, and most of us who had been to Naples, said this was a number one substitute. How many YEN is a PESETA worth, Joe? One of the most interesting features of our stop in Palma was the Mallorcan folk dancers who K , fl all ii a fi lt l , fm :lf 779 Q-3 aria, .-wgffgvg 'gf A L ., X A S V V F ,4 . put on performances for the tourists. Dressedin their gay old-fashioned native costumes, they danced and sang the old boleros, paso dobles, and other folk songs in the Mallorcan-Spanish dialect. ln the village of Valldemosa, we visited the monastery where George Sand and Chopin had once lived, and which still houses Chopin's piano. The hills throughout the island are com- pletely terraced with thousand-year-old olive trees. The sidewalk cafes in town were inter- esting also, ,xfxwy ,, if f W. f- ,,f Q.

fisbarz Our last stop before crossing the Atlantic to the USA was Lisbon, the capital of Portu- gal, We enjoyed it both for its old world atmosphere and its fine modern sections. This was the first Occidental Metropolis that we had visited in many months, and its many large stores and small shops offered a lot to those of us who had not had our fill of souvenir shopping. Its wide paseos were liberally dotted with sidewalk cafes and western style night clubs. The city contains many parks, and on the hills above the city there are small mosaic sidewalks with borders of flowers where we could get a beautiful panoramic View of the country- side. Any kind of liberty hound' could find what he was looking for here. 52522 Guard at the Capitol ??l'2'2 The Tower of Belen iff.: The Capitol Building Castle of St. George
