17 miles "from Oudtshoorn. The visit to these limestone cayes was one of the most interesting and delightful outings of the tour. The drive* in itself was worth since it led through green, fertile valleys, reminding the visitors of Hew Zealand again. Once arrived at the caves the party changed into businesslike football togs and explored their-:won-;ders,« which are really fine examples^of 11 stalactite and stalagmite formation. •' ; I The ckves have been lifted for a great distance with blue and red bulbs throwing a soft light on the V alls' and roofs of the various chambers.-Special to Press Assn.
