In the Bahamas

In this Paramount-Burton Holmes Travelogue are seen the beautiful and the unusual things that are to be found in the Bahama Islands. The points of interest in this release include the old sugar mill, the police force of the island, and open-air church services, where blacks and whites worship together. Another interesting section of the travelogue shows a fashionable garden party of the socially elect at the Colonial Hotel. The opening of a Royal Palm bud, one of the beautiful specimens of the flora with which the islands abound; natives shaking down cocoanuts from the trees, "Bath House Mary," a local celebrity, and native dances, to which Mr. Holmes applies the line, "On with the dance; let joy be unrefined," are other features in this issue.
