Elach eoaeth bore a =wiser and I found I was in eoath molter 4, seat number 1, which seat I was to z'etain during the entire tour.- In each coach there were nine eompartntents, each seat- • ing six people, and as the five coach- es were practically full, I figured We must have had. about 230 passengers. I Lound 'out later that the actual num: bei In the party was 215. My com- partment was full and I had as trav- elling companions a young Scotch couple, an elderly English couple and another -elderly lady. ,They all seem- ed quite pleasant and sociable. The special train was in charge of Captain, Knowles. who had four assist- ant couriers, three on the train and the. fourth kept a,.day or so ahead of to make sure oe 'all the hotel res- ervations in the various 'cities we vie, ted. I didn't actitaliy know we had the our couriers until we reached Vienna. The couriers 'could speak several languages which was, of course, essential are we were to pass through four ooutatrries, each of a dif- ferent language. They were all very good sports and did their beet to an- swer all queries and settle all diffi- culties that arose. One of the cour- lens, known only as Johnnie, Was most, obliging, and I chummed' around a 1c4 with him. We left at 7 p.m. and our 'journey across liolland was uninterestiag apart froth the odd picturesque wind- mill. The Icountry is mostly flat and highly cultivated. Before reaching the German border, the couriers came around ,and 'asked us to. declare the amount of money we were taking into Germany. This; was very important as German currency laws are -eery- strict regarding the taking of money to or from the country. One can take in all he wishes, but under no cir- cuanstaxtes can he take out more than he takes in, Which regulation requires careful scrutiny at all bor- ders of the country. We reached Keldenkirchen, the Ger- man border, at 9.30, having travelled about 130 miles. Here German of- ficials bearded the train and Mspect- ed the lists prepared by the couriers of the money carried by each passen- ger. In order to check up, theyass- ed from conapartment to 'compartment picking out •different passengers and asking them to show -their money to see if the list was correct. After a half hour's delay we moved off and after an hour's run arrived et Dus- ssehearf, our first stop. On leaving the train our party was split up into groups of about 30 peo- Pie, each group having accommoda- tion at a different hotel. This was essential as you can well imagine the congestion which would arise if 215 people 'all landed at the same hotel at the same time. rims in the group with accommodation at the' Monopol Metropole on Kaiser Wilhelm Stresse, In the station, was a representative from each hotel, ,holding aloft a pia - card bearing the name of the hotel, so I drifted over to my proper group.

She suggested a visit to the National Exhibition which was oh this ,summer in Dusseldorf (from May to October). She seemed very anx- ieUe that we see it or according to her statements, It was wonderful and hula not be missed. Quite a num- ber went along with her, but I wasa't able to go as was waiting for a Canadian pal, Barron Ballentine by name. He holds 'an important posi- tion with the Coo e Cola Company and worsts in Essen, where the chief ..0f. flee of the company for Germany its situated. I had met himeitt London about two years ago and had seen him tae last two Easter, vacations when he was over here for short holi- days and lived with me at Landon House. Before leaving on my trip r had dropped him a line to say I would be in Dusseldorf on September 5th, and would like tie see brim if convenient. I knew he Often visited' that city, which is 'only about half en hour by -et -alit from Essen. He replied that be would be in the city that day and would look me up. Barron ,ealleci for me at 9.30 and we were soon in the midst of a re- union chat about our mutual friends. He had his camena, with him, so I 'brought mine and off we went to see the sights. One thing wthieh impress- ed me before going very far was the number of photographic shops. Bar- ron drew my atteertion to this fact and said that nearly everyone in these parts had a ,camera, and were fond of photography. He knew the city very well, for while he had never lived there he ,often, visited it. Essen, he said, was a very busy industrial city (the home of the famous Krupp mun- ition factory) and it was a pleasant change to come over to Dusseldorf for the doe': It 'was a beautiful morning, so we strolled over to the Konigallee, the main street of the city, and one of the finest streets In the whole of Germany. It was very wide with a fine boulevard up the' centre. At the lower end were many flower beds and at the other end a small canal with numerous fountains. On each side were rows of beautiful chestnut trees which in the spring must look very fine with the numberless White can- dle shaped blossoms. The shops on each side of the street were expensive looking and there were also many cafes. The street was crowded with people all well dressed and out for their "Sunday morning stroll. At the -upper 'end of the street was the Hof Garten, or city park. We walked through' the park and down to the Rhine, which flows through the city. This was my \first view of this well known river, at least one hears a lot of its beauties in ^ London. That morning there were many pleasure steamers in sight, as well as .numer- cus freight barges. In sthe distance we could see the buildings of the Exhibition which bordered on the river. I suggested a visit out there, ee we hastened to catch a tram. Af- ter allowing about e 'dozen to pass packed 4o the doors,,;we decided to go ;back to the centre of the city and arrived on the Konigallee again about 11 o'cirock. We found a table at one lof the street cafes, bordering ,on the roadway,' and sat down to watch the passersby 4 I questioned' my friend about the Exhibition ,which was en- titled, "A Nation At Work." It was the first attempt to show how the German nation lived and included work, dwelling, recreation and amuse- ments of the people. The whole ex- hibition was intended to show how the nation proposed to work out its future destinies in peace with Ots neighbors. It showed the progress of the famous Four Year Plan which Hitler announced over a year ago, the purpose of which was to make Ger- many a nation self sufficient within [herself. This desire, prompted by Germany's inability to purchase for- eign products, means sthe manufacture within the country of many produots heretofore purchased abroad. In do- ing 50, miany new processes are nec- essary and substitute !products are be- ing made from the natural resources found within the Country. These pro- eestes were all on exhibit and work - inert actually at work on them. The suceess of the experiment is yet to be seen, but there is no doubt that from the experiments being carried out in tke laboratories, uses will be found fo many Materials which have ,been formerly considered waste ma- terials. After' hearing of the make-up of the emhileition, I was in a way sorry had Missed seeing it. Our conversation eventually turned Ido the progress of the ()ma Cola busi- ness in 'Germany. Barron told me,. much to .mry surprise,that the busi- ness was nourishing and' the company had 'branches all over the country. In the course of a few more years he predicted' that their business in Ger- many watfid: exceed that in Canada. During his 'aear and a half in the cOuntry he had Practically mastered the language and now travelled from branch to branch attending meetings Of their aaleemea.

I rejoined' our party at' the hotel and bad lunch. At 1.30 we were trans. ferred by bus to the station and boarded our train, the identical same train which had brought us to Dus- seldorf. We had the same seats al- so. We pulled out at 2.10 for Frank- furt which was to be our next stop. It was a 3% hour run anti our route lay along the left 'bank of' the It was a beautifull run as we followed' the river far miles before turning off east for Frankfurt. The shipping and boating on the river was extensive. A boat trip on the Rhine is one of the things every visitor should do, but unfortunately 1 was unable to have that pleasure this time. The scenery on both sides of the river was very fine, especially in the bright sunlight. We arrived at our destina- tion at six o'clock and left the train for our hotel. I was in, the group (most of who were people who were in other groups at Dusseldorf) to stay at the Prince Hedndrich Hotel. It could be seen from the station, so we walked, over following our guide with his hotel pkicard. This hotel wasn't as fine as the Monopol Metropol but nevertheless -quite comfortable'. After dinner two of us went out foe a stroll.and finally found a large open air cafe where can orchestra was playing, so we set -and listened; until about 11 o'clock and' then returned to our hotel. My friendthis time was an Englishman who was travelling 'alone. Next morning (Monday) after break- fast we left by bus on a tour of the 'clay. We first drove to the very' old part which was most interesting with its quaint shops, timbered houses and very narrow streets. We visited the eathedeal and then walked through 'one ,of the narrow streets and saw the old sausage .stall, the birthplace of the world famous Frankfurt saes - ages. We went on to the old market square and entered the Roner, the medieval town hall. It is over 600 years old and up until, 1792 was the place not election of the German kings and the scene of mane gorgeous cor- onation ceremonies. The hall' was Ismail but very ornate and before ac- tually going onto the main part we were compelled to put on felt slip- pers provided for us, so as not to scratch with our shoes the fine pol- ished floor. We next visited the old home of the famous writer Goethe, greatest of German poets. He is sometimes call- ed the Shakespeare of Germany, a9 he was as famous there as Shake- speare was in England. Goethe's house is now a museum and contains all the original furniture used by [him. I might mention that he lived from 1749 to 1832. We 'were back at the hotel by 11, so I went off then alone with ma ,camera to take some Snaps. I had a map of the city and with its aid made my way to the river—the river Main which flows through the city and joins the Rhine at Mainz. Ill is a good glee and I noticed several lenge wooden structures enclosing part of the wa- ter for use as swimming baths. At one spot there was a roller sicatinrg rink floating non the water. I wan- dered along 'one side of the river and finally turned up into the old part of the 'city which we had visited earlier in the Wning. r had quite a time, finding way back to the hotel but made ft alright by 1 o'clock in time for lunch. After lunch quite a number of us went on the 'excursion to the famous old' University town of Heidelberg, situated on the •Neekar River, a tribu- tary of the Rhine. We travelled by bus and -followed a route ;which took us through several small villages. The distance we covered was about 100 kilometres (60 miles approximately.. We arrived there at four O'olock and drove through the town to the Vic- toria Hetet where we had, afternoon tea. from there we visited' the old. Castle, a. good wary up above the town where we had a fine 'view of the riv- er. Heidelberg is a very picturesque town but I was somewhat disappoint- ed' as I ,expected to find at small quaint village rather than a cemmer- dal 'city of about 80,000 Inhabitants. We weal through the castle grounds and visited the wine cellar where there was a huge barrel capable of holding 48,000 •gailons of wine and bad a Egmall dance floor built, on top of It.
