Salmon has retum- ed home after a brief, but busy, 23 -day tour of continen- tal Europe. While her itinerary was designed to be a pilgrimage to the major centres of historic European Christianity visiting all of the most famous Medieval and Renaissance cathedrals she was able to take in much of the flavour of the major cities of Europe - namely, Paris, Nice, Florence, Rome, Venice, Salsburg, Munich and Amsterdam. Cities are wonderful and capture the imagination, but the smaller cities and towns fill the memory; especially the unforgettable Chartres Cathedral; St. Emilion, the home of the Monolithique church and the renowned Bordeaux Chateaux and vineyards; the Montpellier; the perched village of Eze, overlooking the blue Mediterranean, exciting Monte Carlo; unique Pisa; medieval Sienna; beautiful Assisi; the tyrolian city of In- nsbruck; and the old univer- sity town Heidelberg. Eleanor's trip was jam- packed with adventure and surprise every day and she has been spending her days since Friday evening resting and recounting her tales. Besides glorying in her visits to the grandiose cathedrals, a particular highlight was seeing the marvelous day -long passion play at Oberammergau. On the way home, she wasable to spend a few days in London. England. reaquainting herself with the city and see- ing Peter O'Toole in Pygmalion. She has discovered some special places to which she will want to return one day soon, but that will have to wait as she has accepted a position as teacher of English at Women's Teacher College in Zonkwa, Kaduna State, Nigeria. She leaves for Ot- tawa August 15 and for Nigeria on August 24. Dashwood Seniors Dashwood Senior Citizens held their picnic Wednesday Jude 27.
