THE PENNSYLVANIA RAILROAD

West Point is the home of the United States Military
Academy, where the young soldiers are taught the arts of war
and are graduated to recruit the officers of the Army. It is
more romantic than warlike in its aspect, but its history is intimately
 entwined with military operations of early Colonial
days.
Shortly after leaving West Point, the Palisades of the Hudson
 rear their heights on the west, while the east bank of the
river is thickly studded with handsome villas. At Haverstraw
the making of bricks is illustrated by the long files of the product
ready for shipment.
On the west bank of the river the imposing mausoleum of
General Grant catches the eye, and the train stops at the Wee-1awken
 terminal.
