The train for New York City did

noon. We left Washington on sched

at 9:30 a.m. and boarded the B. 8.
Veendam which sailed from New
York at 11 a.m. The first two days
at sea were very fine and everybody
had a grand time. Then, the third
day was a day of doom for most of
us. About the fifth day out every
body was feeling fine again.
' Plenty to no On Ship.
To amuse the passengers they had
shuffle-board, ping-pong, deck ten
nis, golf and moving pictures, chesa
and checkers, so we were well occu
pied with something to do all the
time. Our last night on board they
had a farewell dinner which was ex
cellent. We landed In Plymouth, Eng.,
at 3 o'clock In the morning and
by the time the Immigration and
customs officials got through check

In England with a moat around it.
We also visited Well's cathedral. We

a garrison In 1560. In this castle
they have a large supply of ancient j
guns, armor, and large paintings of
kings and queens and of ambassadors

On the way we stopped at Strat-ford-On-Avon
to see where Shakes

Interesting sights. As Oxford we
arrived too late because we couldn't
find a hotel so Just by chBnce our
leaders came upon two gentlemen
from Canada who made arrangements
for us to stay with the Oxford
group at Queens college. We had a
very nice time there and they have

A PAWN

In chess, a pawn moves in
narrow limits. So, too,
are your movements re
stricted when you wear
an improperly fitted truss.
We could break down
those limits by fitting
with a truss designed to
hold the rupture securely
and safely without riding,
chafing or binding under
physical exertion.
