THE HOLY SPRINGS OF

BALI

VISIT TO TAMPAKSIRING AND ITS

STRANGE LEGEND

In the pleasant coolness of the early morning our motor car rolled along the excellent asphalte roads of Bal through an avenue of waving palm trees that stretched far into the distance. The busy people of the island, were already hard at work. Many women were carrying their wates to market, gracefully striding with undula- ting galt as they balanced their loads loose on their heads. In the Пelds men were slowly stepping behind burly water buffaloes that were drawing ploughs through the stift. water eqvered loam. Others werktfeading down the heavy clumps of clay. while else where again men and women, constantly stooping, were pulling the young rice shoots out of the Irrigated nursery fields and plac- ing them in sheaves to be re- planted in their final positions, writes Dr. B. A. G. Vroklage in the "Nederland Mall."

Further along I saw the rice- felds, void of human beings, left to themselves in the fierce sun of the tropics that between the heat and the well-watered soil the rice might steaälly riper. In one place I saw the thin green shoots of the sprouting rice just plercing the

VISIT TO A TEMPLE

As soon as we left our car to visit one of the temples we were surrounded by men who offered to guide us Or to carry our photographic apparatus for 125. Unfortunately, the influx of tour- ists had already led them to de- part from the modesty and tour- tegy which elsewhere is the normal practice of the charming Balinese people in dealing with Europeans. In the course of my tours I was accompanied by a Balinese guide,

remains that the shrines arc similar in shape to the chandls of Java. And the same applies to the four graves on the other side of the valley." Whoever those may be that have here been interred, it is not unreasonable to assume that there must have been some con- nection between these graves in Ball and the civilization of Java.
