A,1UIU .IVlo U.11, lorican convention badee was an
GIRL TELLS TRIP "pen Sesame" to anything we
waniea.
In Berlin we saw the famous Kai
ser's palace which is now a muse
um, and the Brandenburg Uate
through whose middle arch no one
was allowed to go but the Kaiser.
Now anyone may walk through it
We walked down Berlin's loveliest
street, Unter den Linden. Berlin
is the world's third largest city but
traffic moves at such a leisurely
pace and the streets are so wide
that one can hardly realize that it
is such a large city. Another thing
of interest is that there are no
slum buildings in Berlin. Passing
through the overcrowded portions
of Berlin which we would term
Slums," the buildings are as well
kept as elsewhere and everything
is clean.
From Berlin we went to Brussels
where we saw the king's palace, the
old guild halls and the palace of the
(Continued from First Page.)
Bavaria and the chief art center of
Germany. Munich was established
by monks one thousand years ago.
One of the most famous medical
schools in the world is at Munich.
The university there has 9000 stu
dents, ten per cent of whom are
girls.
In every large city, whether of
friend or foe, we placed a wreath
on the Unknown Soldier's grave
This was a part of our "Friendship
Tour." The Germans could hardly
understand our doing this but they
liked it Munich has a war mem
orial where are engraved 13,000
names of war dead. Our delegation
was significant in that it was the
largest American delegation to
Germany since the war. We ex
pected to And at least some bitter- crown Prince Leopold and Princess
ness but found nothing but kind- Astrid. Brussels is a very interest-
ness and a very real courtesy dur- ing cjty and I wished that I might
mg all our trip tnrougn uermany. have stayed there longer.
Munich also has one of the most And on to Paris. Paris becomes
famous museums in the world. reaiy gay after 10 o'clock at night
Here we saw a whole submarine, The outdoor cafes line the side-
fully equipped coal and iron mines.
There were no "hands off" signs and
one could press an electric button
and watch all sorts of machinery
work.
The Mozart festivals were being
held in Munich and one evening we
went to a Mozart serenade given in
the palace of the former king of
Bavaria.
From Munich we travelled to
Oberammergau, little town of Pas
sion play fame, and from there to
. Augsburg where we were welcomed
by a great host of Christian En
deavorers and taken to the town
hall where the mayor bade us wel
come. In this town hall is the Gol
den room said to be the most beau
tiful of its kind in the world. Here,
walks and there the people drink
and smoke and watch the rest pass
by. The later the hour, the gayer
they are. I don't know when they
go to bed.
We saw the historic church or
Monte Marte, Palace of the Legion
of Honor, the Louvre, French acad
emy of arts, French mints, Notre
Dame cathedral, Napoleon s tomb,
and took a ride along the Seine
river. At the Arch de Triomphe
the delegation placed a wreath on
the Unknown Soldier's grave of
France. There is a smaller replica
of the Statue of Liberty in Paris.
When I saw it, homesickness swept
over me.
Outside of Paris some miles is
the Mai Maison or private palace of
too, we saw the famous theses of Napoleon which he bought for his
Martin Luther which he nailed to I wife Josephine. This is now used
the church doors at Wittenburg. as a museum for Napoleon's relics.
There are many beautiful old bibles contrary to the general opinion, Na-
here, printed by hand by monks and poleon was a man of very simple
done so wonderfully that one can
hardly realize it is handwriting.
Nuremburg is called "one of the
quaintest old towns of Germany." I
shall always remember Nuremburg
because it was here that we had a
most laughable experience. We
never seemed to get enough water
on our trip and when sat down to
our meals we immediately began to
call for water, which the waiters
were reluctant to give us, prefering
to serve us wine and beer instead.
But we wanted water and finally it
came in glasses that held about two
swallows. Each of us had our glass
refilled about four times. The next
morning we were served water in
very tall glasses which we thought I
were some kind of beer glasses. Im
agine our amazement when just be
fore we left the hotel we found that I
we had been served water in the
hotel's flower vases!
At Eisenach we saw the Wart-
burg, a castle where Luther was
imprisoned for eleven months and
where he translated the New Test
ament from the Greek. Eisenach I
is another beautiful town and here
we stayed at a hotel which was a I
cross between a Russian mosque
and a castle.
From Eisenach on to Berlin
where we were met by a big dele
gation of Christian Endeavorers
and many newspaper reporters
from Berlin s leading newspapers.
Our convention there of between
14,000 and 16,000 young people from
all over the world representing 42
nations and more than 80 different
denominations, made considerable
stir in Germany. We received mes-
sages from President Hoover, Pres- I
ident Doumergue of France and
President Von Hindenburg. The
Berlin newspapers classed this con
vention with not only importance
as a great religious gathering but
one of considerable political and
diplomatic importance as well.
Some of the world's greatest
speakers were on the platform. The
music was wonderful, such as I
have never heard before and proba
bly never will hear again. Mingling
with the young people of many na
tions we learned more sympathy
and understanding for them than i
through a lifetime of reading books.
The Germans liked the American
tastes and his coronation crown has
only cameos set in gold instead of
precious gems. There is a tent
room in this palace as the bedroom
of Josephine's because she wished
to have a place to sleep as nearly
like Napoleon's as possible when he
was away on his campaigns. We
saw Napoleon's swords, clothing,
pictures, dishes and even his bath
tub and camp cot!
Then the Palace of Versailles,
gorgeous production of Louis IV's
reign. Marie Antoinette was mar
ried here. The Hall of Minors is a
wonderful sight The King's bed
room was the principal room of the
palace and exactly in the middle of
the whole palace. The Toullenes
gardens surrounding the palace
are beautiful beyond description
with great fountains and acres of
green lawns and lovely trees whose
branches arch over the road like a
cathedral.
Paris would not be properly vis
ited without a trip to the Louvre.
This immense and beautiful build
ing would take a month to visit
carefully, so I will only mention a
few of the most beautiful and orig
inal paintings that we saw. The
Anglers, The Gleaners, Whistler's
Mother, the Mona Lisa, The Last
Supper by De Vinci who took twen
ty years to paint the head of Christ
in the picture, The Crowning of
Josephine and Titan's Holy Family.
We also saw the Venus de Muo and
in another part relics of the Assyr
ian civilization and war chariots
that they used 2000 B. C.
One whole day was taken with
a 200 mile bus trip through the bat
tlefields of the late war. We took
the road that the "Taxi Cab" army
of Paris took to the front Along
this road passed 1100 taxis carrying
five soldiers each to the front in
September, 1914. Then over the
bridge that spans the famous Marne
river on the spot where the Marne
was said to have "run red with
blood," and on to Belleau Wood.
One can still see some of the holes
and stumps of trees ani the barbed
wire. In Belleau Wood is the Amer
ican cemetery. I was proud of the
United States when I saw this beau
tiful place which they have purch
ased as a last resting place for the
2268 American boys buried there.
While we were there a bus load of
Gold Star mothers came and I have
never seen a more heart-breaking
sight than the mothers sitting on
chairs on the green grass beside the
marble crosses which marked the
graves of their dead. The Ameri
can government is doing everything
to make this place a beautiful mem
orial to the boys buried there.
All along the road we passed cem
eteries the French graves marked
with white wooden crosses, the Ger
man with black wooden crosses, and
the Italian with white stone crosses.
There are parts of old houses shat
tered and many red roofs which
were new on other houses along the
road.
We passed through Chateau Thi
erry, through Dormans where the
famous "Rock of the Marne" held
and on through Rheims where we
visited the famous cathedral. From
Rheims to Hill 108 which we climb
ed and looked down into the im
mense crater. I picked French pop
pies on the slope of the hill. On the
road of Chemin des Dames we saw
the dugout that was the headquar
ters of Von Hindenburg. It was
made of concrete about two feet
thick and had rooms leading from
it underneath the ground.
Through Soissons which was bad
ly damaged by the war but is now
almost rebuilt The French have
replanted much of their forests
that were damaged by the war and
except that the trees are small one
would never suspect that anything
but peace reigned there.
At Compiegne we saw the rail
road car in which the Armistice was
signed. Through Senlis where the
black Sengalese troops from Africa
with their turbans and flowing
robes are stationed. They were
brought from Africa to fight in the
war and are still in France. Past
Le Bourget field where Lindbergh
landed and on to Paris again.
Paris would not be complete with
out shopping and I must say that
the shops are lovely and tempting.
Finally we had to bid Paris good
bye and started for Cherbourg
where we took our steamer bound
for Montreal.
