Inter- SHOTS PARTING SHOTS Great White Fleet SS Talamanca Nearing Limon, Costa Rica January 20, 1940 THIS is not precisely just another cruise. Every one we have ever taken had its points of interest and adventure. In the first place, the Talamanca is considerably larger than most of the many United Fruit liners and more roomy as to deck and cabin space than the freighters on which we have formerly rolled down to South America from Haiti or the Virgin Islands.

In the second place, the ship has scarcely half of, her complement of 104 passengers. WE expected to have trouble in arrangements for the trip. There was none. With European and Mediterranean travel cut off this winter, we imagined jaunts to Central and South American countries would be in great demand. Instead, Americans are sticking more closely than usual to their own shores.

Officials diag- I nose the trouble as fear. Especially has this been noticeable since the Graf Spee incident off South America. If sea engagements happen off the shores of our southern neighbors and famous liners are sacrificed in nearby waters or a German freighter barely slips into one of our own harbors with a British cruiser in close pursuit, then surely the waters are troubled for those who go down to the sea in ships. THERE seemed some anxiety on the part of Captain Whidden and his officers while in the North Atlantic. Things were watched pretty closely all the way to Havana.

Nor a was the weather much to boast of. Cloudy all the way with a following nor 'wester adding chill to the air even in the Gulf Stream. Then at I Owned and, Operated by the American Stores Company.

THE sextette frescoed the zodiac a little in Havana. The visit was made all the more enjoyable by a temporary membership card the swanky Havana Yacht Club thoughtfully sent by messenger to the ship by the Ralph Govines.

A sea-going hack finally conveyed the six plus two guitar players and as many others as could hang on from a night club back to the ship. Comparing notes next morning, we found practically all the other passengers telling of adventures of somewhat similar import. Havana has attractions all its own. But Sloppy Joe's is not the place it once was in Dan Hart's time. It has become just another resort since Joe's death.

OUT of Havana, Costa churning Rica without almost due south to further calls at ports, you strike the real Caribbean. The skies clear. Blue turns the sea. No nor'west blows reach this far down. Bathing suits become universal costumes.

Winter is forgotten. Spring was left behind at Havana. The feel of July is everywhere. For this is summer to Central and South America and packed away ready for checking at the Company's pier at Limon are overcoats and all the gear of winter. Instead, riding and hiking togs to pack.

We land tomorrow morning. It is new country to us but we hope will prove as interesting as guide books and a few American visitors promise. Up country we may write a little. At the moment a pre-dinner invitation to Stateroom 24 has just been delivered. That needs immediate attention.

By Edgar A. Guest.) WAY TO CHECK SPREAD OF MENINGITIS Editor Times-Leader-Evening News: The cases of spinal meningitis in this valley nfor the past year have prompted to write this letter. Due to the fact that very little is known about this disease by the laboring class of people, it has necessitated me asking myself the question, "Why doesn't the Luzerne minded Medical Association or any civic group get together and donate a sum money, which, in my opinion, would be well worthwhile, in order the to have symptoms of pamphlets printed giving this disease?" These pamphlets should be posted in all schools and other public meeting places. In this way a person who has contracted the disease, will not regard it as a mere cold in the early stages as is usually done. But with these pamphlets publicly displayed people will soon become conscious of the seriousness of the disease and will see a doctor as soon as possible.

then this epidemic way, of it is spinal my contention, meningitis will be checked. A HEALTH MINDED OBSERVER. MARRIAGE LICENSES Leonard Yatko Cecelia Witczak Wilkes, Ashley Alice Parran E. L. Porter Foster Wilkes- Barre Scranton James A.

SLEEPING PATRIOTS Editor, Times-Leader, Evening News: Attention--You humble souls who sit glued to your seats with clasped hands as the American flag moves across the screen or passes you in the street.

I am a young American. My cestors were massacred at the battle of Wyoming and fought in the Civil War. During this raging conflict in Europe I have become ever so thankful that I am an American and with my patriotism I have possibly become too exuberant, for I have readily seen as the days and months go past, the lack of patriotism in my fellow men. We are our own dictators and live in a God blessed nation. Have we forgotten George Washington and the men who froze at Valley Forge or Abe Lincoln and the men who died of wounds and disease at Gettsburg? I hope not.

It certainly seems so with out respect to the American flag. Let's have more editorials on the front page and blast them out so it wakes the sleeping patriotism in our American F. EDWARDS, JR.

Not since World War times have we seen a ship fly colors at night. Ordinarily the flag is lowered at sunset as punctiliously as an Army Post flag is ceremoniously taken from the halyards at retreat. HAVANA seemed gay and throbbing with life as ever. Like New York, shipping was disturbed but ships continue to sail. How all her people gain a livelihood is a mystery.

In general it is a prosperharbor. We know several Amerwere badly 1929 or thereicans who cracked, up or at least about who tried their luck at something new in Cuba. Almost without exception, they have been successful. Yet as is the case of overpopulation in most Caribbean ports, dire poverty of a type Americans can scarcely conceive rears an ugly head at every turn. There seem three people to every available job.

And Cuba has no WPA, PWA or any other kind of government A's to ameliorate conditions. SIX of us in particular have chummed up on the voyage. Not that there are no other congenial and interesting shipmates. But just because we naturally gravitated at the start and seemed to be of a mind as to tastes, thirsts, plans and performances.
