The climate is equable. It is sunny but temperate, being neither so inclement in winter as that of Northern Europe, nor so enervating in summer as that of the East. It is a genial, wholesome climate in which Europeans thrive.

The larger towns are modernly equipped, and many of the smaller. ones are very congenial residentially. There are numerous resorts--moun- tain, river and marine, for an occa- sional change.
