last -week's is,sue we published an
artiele about Ettropeen eonditions as
eeeii by the cari410,0.. Weekly News -
'paper Editoes on their recent tone.
i'hafollowing le a resame sketch held
over from the week before:
We Sundayed at Harrogate, that
wonderfully beautiful island Spa in
Yorkshire. Higb-livers go there from
all parts of the kingdom to get "boil-
ed, out" We had no sooner got sea-
led at the Prospect Hotel than we had
a call from a distinguished old Walk-
ereou, boy Mr, Arther Mcg:onuell, eld-
est on. of Mr. and Mrs: Oliver Mee
Votmell, Mr. lelcConnell, it will be
remembered., resigned his position as
Professor of Architecture at the Uni-
versity of Toronto this spring to re-
el.& in England, Where Ms wife's peo-
ple live, Mr. McConnell has a lovely
home hi Harrogate and likes it great
ly here, We understand he enjoys
'even a higher reptitation in. his line
here than he did in Canada. We were
Sorry not to be able to visit his home
as our ptogremme did not permit it
We visited Fonutain's Abbey, one Of
the ancient monasteriee of the north,
in the afteruoon, and steapped at Ripon
a fameas old ^town -which dates back
to Alfred the Great. We greatly en-
joyed the drive through rural York-
shire. It is an immense country,, the
greatest in. England.• in. size and first
in industrial importance. The coun-
try, except for the hedges reminded as
very much oirtiral Ontario. Perhaps
that is eyby so many Yorle.shirernen
lied their way to our province. At
Fountain's Abbey, Dr. Moody, 0.B.E.,
explained to us the interesting his-
torical points regarding this ancient
ruin which dates bacle to the 5th cen-
tury, It is one of the scores of won-
derful edifices which Henry VIII de-
stroyed by one. fell stroke of his pen.
Later in the afternoon in the small
city of Ripon, the Lord Mayor show-
ed us the horn presented to the city
by Alfred the Great -when he present-
ed Ripon with its charter. For cen-
turies the free city was governed by
wakemen, and even today the watch- is the spacious hall where a Lew.

seemed all too brief. After being for -
ally slopes down the hill to Holyrood
Castle on the plain. In the morning
we took a tor of the city by Chars-
a-bance, visitiog many of the points of
interest, We 'visited the law courts
and ia the -basement Saw some of the
original manuscripts of Sir Walter
Scott and Bobbie Burns. We saw Sta
Giles Cathedral, where Tenny Geddes
threw her stool at the head of the
offending clergyman who had the
temerity to read the King's message,
stood at John Knox's burial place in
the courtyard, and. passed or. to the
grave yard which was the historic
prison of the Scotch covenanters. We
had a fine Sebt, Mr. John Tennant,
as our guide and his explanation of
the historic points of interest left
nothing to be d.esired. We saw the
house of Raeburn, the famous Scot-
ish painter, whose pictures we had
seen at the home of 1VIadame Stera in
Paris, in the London Art Galleries,
and later in the Glasgow Museum.
We entered neatly of the narrow closes
or alleyways leading into inner comts
and hed pointed out to as what were
at one time the homes of the literary
elite htet are to -day the slums of Edin-
burgh,
At noon we were lunched by Sir
John Findley, the Edinburgh news-
paper publisher, two hundred of the
American advertisers being our fel-
low guests. Besides the Chairman
and Lord Mayor there were only two
speakers, Mr. Scherraerhorn of De-
troit, whom we know a old. as a real
spell binder, and our own Mr. 'Wil-
liam McDonald of Chesley, who rose
magnificently to the occasion and we
were very proud of hien as he out-
lined what Canada owed to Scotlaad
and what the visit to old Scotland
meant to us . H certainly made the
welkin ring and created a fine im-
pression.,
In the afternoon Mr. Tennant took
a party of us to see Holyrood Palace,
where Mary Queen of Scots proved
such, a cut up in. the old days. We saw
the room where her Italian Secretary
David Rizzi°'was murdered and the
room where her husband, Darnley,
was taken. Of more recent interest
