PEITAIHO CONDITIONS

To the Editor of the "Norra-Cama Dairy News."

Sir,—To those of us who are enjoying ourselves in this delightful spot it is rather amusing to read the fearsome surmises some of your correspondents. Foreigners are perhaps even worse than the Chinese for the circulation of absurd rumours, The result is that old ladies of both sexes who had planned to come here get scared and flit off to Star Beach, Japan, and other—places where they falsely imagine their precious persons will be more secure.

Peitaiho is just as quiet and pleasant as usual and we can get everything we want just as in former years. For a brief season only there are not as many trains as usual—that is all. The full service of trains will probably be resumed in the near future.

Since Peitaiho is fuller already of women and children than of anything else it is an unhappy flight of imagination to say that "Peitaiho is no place for women and children." With a full knowledge of the place and with my own women and children here and being personally amongst the condi-here I can only say that it is one tions, whatever they are, ces of the finest places in the Far East for women and children to be in and right now.

Enclosing my card.

T am, etc., "Ar Perrarno."

Peitaiho, July 1, 1992.
