When we got to the hotel the doors Were. atarially looked and the night porter Would be mad: Tho Lion Of. Lucerne is ciat from solid rock as a, -memorial to the Swiss Guards, who lost their lives to a man- during the ,Reatoliztion In 1792. This is quite fam.ous and leery artistic„ cut out of the side- of a mountain. From here we got our first glimpse of the Alps. En route to Interlaken, we passed through Alpinachne 'where Pontius Pilot esas supposed to have committed suicide. Arrived at Interlaken about 5 p.m. The dining room in the hotel seemed all windows with this ex- quisite mountain view a regular pan- orama. Statues all over the garden at the hotel called Eden. After din- ner we went shopping. Interlaken is in the heart of the Bernese Oberland mountains, to the west Lake of Than, east, Brienzer Sea, and a magnificent view of Die Jungfrau. ,Principle St. is tHoheweg-mile long -.--no other streets. Back at 10.30 so dead tired, but'a sleep in that air made us feel like a million dollars next morning. We always had Swiss chocolate in- stead of coffee for breakfast, and wonder how they made it. Best we had ever tasted. The mail kept fol- lowing us and great to know the folks still thought of us. Walked to the stet -len -that morning to catch train for Scheidegg Pass. We saw so many old Swiss Herdsmen in their natiene costume; all the cows wore bells, and when the train stopped, you could'see hundreds of heads of cattle grazing, on the mountain sides, and the tinkle of all these bells mady quite an orchestra. I counted five different wild flowers from the train window= Blue Bells (by the million) can you see the color scheme; Red Clover, Blaek-eyed ISusans, Yellow Paint Brushee, White Daisies, Fire Weed, Hair Bells, and I simply can't describe the .pitture to you. It just seemel like a fairyland living off by itself. - little chalets dotted here and there. • Can you imagine a drive via motor in special buses up 12,000 feet into the Alps. So many wondered how they compared with the 'Canadian Rockies, 'and in my opinion, if 'the roads into the Rockiest hachbeen built in the time of Napoleon arid Hanibal, when they took the elephants over the Alps, I believe the view would be similar, but roads to the Rockies are jest being built; maybe it was only loyalty, I don't know. ' However, the Alps hold their 'beautiful awe and their history. We came upon the Dead Sea in the mountains and had a snowball fight on its banks. July 23rd, a lovely bright, sunny day. , Went through Frunig Pass, 'Furka Pass -scenery not So, striking here until we reached the Aummit Pass, 7,990 feet. Went 'into the Rhone Gladier: ILoagfellow in "Hy- perion" describes it as Pa, frozen cat- aract more than 2,000 feet in heighn fills the whole valley -between twe mountains. Base is arched like a dome, shaped like a glove, witn palm down. and fingers crooked and close tagether--centuries old. Got a nice moyie of this. When we entered the shades of greens and blues were per- fectly 'marvellous, and I must not keep on raving about all these artist's colors. I never wished before to be able to paint like a real artist, how- ever, I have several good copies. Up- on coming' out of the Glacier, we found a Swiss herdsman in costume playing a Swiss horn for pennies. These horns are about 6 feet long and he etands blowing in one end, the other end, resembling a pipe stern en- larged, rests on the ground, and emits the weirdest sounds you can imagine. Changed busee- at Belvedere Hotel. From here we got a good view from another angle of the Assizhorn, 13,, 120 feet high. Rode on the train through the heart of the Alps for five hours and arrived at Lugano 8.30 p.m., and the view from •that hoteL window was one not likely to be sooTi forgotten. 'After dinner a laaeyer, whom I 'called 1Vtr. 'Cynical, chartered a launch ablaut 10.30 and took us up the lake for a ride in the moonlight. Sang, talked and etisited-such a jolly crowd! Trip was all too short. ' Af- ter the rest went back to the hotel, we walked over town and sat in the park and listened to a concert; sat there until fhe lights were turned out on us. The Furnicular to the hotel was off and we had to walk up over 300 steps. Laugh! Sit and rest, and go on! The hotel was locked when we got there and it was after wee sma' hours, butMr. Cynical tipped the. old porter who came in his bath- robe and carpet slippers to let us in, and he was not so grouchy as tbe majority. Next morning T had an opportunity to have my two pairs of shoes fixed: I had worn out two new pair. Did littl shopping, btoused around and LuganoOis an ideal SI& From here we took the train to Milan. Visited! this most gorgeous 'Cathedral -pure- ly Gothic and different from St. Mark's in Venice as a Malice deg' is to a Pekinese. Central spire is 360 feet high; 2,U00 statues around the out- side and over 52 pillars inside. • The Miraculous Madonna is here with her hundreds of candles and worshippers kneeling in prayer all over the cath- edral, centuries old. Milan Cathedral is a Greek Catholic Church -no chairs, no benches. We always felt very reverened when we entered these magnificent old cathedrals and seem- ed awe-strieken at the beauty and enormous stained glass windows, den- turies old. This is the church with the statue of St. .Bartholenau repres- enting the apostle as carrying his skin over his shoulder -very grue- some; large silver sarcophagus in the Crypt The line of the meridian is in this church also. Is was a vary warm day we 'were here; sant one laborer change his clothes on the street; another Washed his feet at the drinking' fountain, and these Ital- ians surely_ did 'strange things. he monument of Leonardo da Vinci is a few blocks north from the cathedral and in the Vietar Emanuel gsliery we saw Leonardo 's; famous Pieutting of the Lord's Supper. This is paint- ed eneethe side of a huge wall, in building which Napoleon used as 'a stable for his horses, and cut a door through the paiating cutting away part of the table Cloth: This has been been retouched, sevendletintes, the lest 20 years' ago: Nre is, indeed, a study in art appreelation.

That night we caught the nighnboat across the North Sea to the Hook of Hol- land. How that North Sea swished! July 15th -The Hague and the res- idence of Queen Wilhelmina called the palace in the woods, built in 1634. In the Japanese room we found a •••- chandelier made of a tea set -cups for candle' holders; saucers turned upside down, In the ballroom with ceiling 100 feet high, is one mass of painted picture, done by none of Ruben's students in memory of Wil- liam 'the Silent of Orange. Mr. Van- denberg, a great butter maker, has a lovely home, with a butter pot about 10 feet across, placed on the roof. The 'beach is about three miles long nnd has parking space for over 1,- 000,000 bicycles. Roads are arrang- ed in roe's -walk bicycle path, wag- ons, horseback, autos, and trees be- tween were planted by Napoleon. Saw the Peace Palace,- 1907.

Visited the inside of real Dutch homes on the Island of Mark- en, which is all Protestant. The Isle of Voldendam is Roman Catholic. The inlwaitants of these islands drink I ain' water, live a slow lazy life, great many fishermen, storms wreck boats and men are never heard of again - many widows. Costumes are very quaint and when train stops, children almost knock you down, asking T have their photo taken and then "penny,, penny," as that iabout all the EngliSh they know. At. Amster - lain, population 600,000, stayed at the Hotel Schiller, and what excel- lent meals. The first night after din- ner one of the party thought we should all have wheeled chairs to. get us away from the table. But when. you travel from one hotel to another and he meals are not "like mother used to get." and then to -come upon. a royal feast, you should know the reaction. One of 'the great diamond factories is here. Wonderful tulip gardens, acres and acres, but we were not there at the right season to en- joy their beauty. It takes 6 years to grew a tulip bulb, and when ex= arnined under a microscope, the blos- som may easily be seen in the sprout and color determined. Prom here we went to Brussels on River Seene. At the Grand Palaces there is a big fruit and vegetable market, and saw the remain's of this. 'Mass was on during our visit to the Cathedral Ste. Gudules. Choir and transepts are • of the 13th century carved wooden pulpit and represents the expulsion of Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden. The Palace ef Justice covers 61/2 acres, cost $10,- 000,000 to build. The heavy bronze doors, carried off by the Germans during the war, were just being re- placed and the men at work the morn- ing we -criSited. A mile north is the rifie range where Edith Cavell, the English nurse, was shot by the Ger- mans, October 12, 1915. Two .years later her body was removed to Nor- wich, England. One of the Germans whom she nursed refused to shoot and they put him in her place and shot him first. She fainted and evi- dently they are not allowed to shoot and phoned to headquarters to ask what to do, and the order came to shoot her as she lay. London has a beautiful 'memorial to Edith Cayell Met one of my Classmates, T. G. H., 1921, Mrs. Wright, now living in Ant- werp, and surely enjoyed seeing her. We visited Brussels Beer Gardens and neyer had I seen such positively ugly women. We left here July 17tn for Cologne and arrived at the Schweitzerhof 'Hotel at 9 p.m. and hhd a real German supper, noodles, etc. Was too late, rainy night so we. stayed in and had a sing -song and one of the boys played all the Ger- man war songs Why, no one knew, hut it didn't sound right knowing the Canadians marched over the Hollen- zollern bridge after the armistice was signed, so Mr. Might, leader of the party, stopped him and brought the proprietor to the front and intiodilc-, ed us as a crowd of Canadians, that we had been enemies at one time, but ,friends to -day and hoped we would always remain such; etc. And Herr Prop. made a little 'befitting speech and said he could play too and ber. gan playing Die Wacht Um Rhine, Strauss Waltzes, until it was time for us to go to bed. Up at 6 tem, before the others, to visit the Cologne Cathedral; which is one of the most ;beautiful Gothic churches in the world. Took a taxi- cab in time for breakfast. The cath- edral was begun in 1248. French -us- ed it es Hay Magazine. 'Plans lost 100 s -ears, found in Paris in 19th cen- tury and restored. The twin tOwers are ter) heavy in the upper stories - 444 feet by 201 and 160 feet high. The banks were closed the 'day we were there. At 8 a.mwe took the Kaiser Wilhelm for a trip down the Rhine. Had dinner on the boat -di -id never have I tasted such beer (you couldn't get water without begging for it). Had lovely Rhine fish, too. Such a menu! The Rhine trip is most beautiful -passed Bonn, Where Bee- thoven 'was ,born; the Lorelei Rock, Made famous by the old German song by Heine; Biggen, the Howie Tower; vinetowers all along the banks, the airl cattier (templed by the pirates in the elder days When the Rhine was the only means of transpOrtation and" ships Were tebbed.

One of the party asked for fruit for breakfast and was handed a dish full of small plums. She helped herself and when she came to the end„,ef her meal, she Was asked to pay 5c a piece for what she at. Did we laugh! July 19th found us in Heidleburg, Germany; population 50,000, o n Neckar River. We saw the garden where the ,true story of the Student Prince originated. All these students must fight a dual in order to join their fraternity, and we saw them with these very vivid sword marks all oeer their faces and cheeks, which is supposed to be quite an honor. Others had their, faces swathed in .bandages. The Red Ok is .the frame of their favorite Beer Garden, and is the same as it was 30 years ago. The students requested this, so there would be no changes when they re-, turned. All the old autographs are still on the walls. This was built in 1724, and has been run by the same family for generations. Heidelburg University is Protestant. The new medical building is ,very modern, only opened this year. The oldest flag be- longing to the University, is 133 years old. Bunsen, from Bunsen burner fame, . graduated from here. The stein from which Martin Luther drank, is still in this old Red Oic and has a picture of his wife in the bottom of the stein. The students' prisons show signs of imprisonment, all the drawings on the wall very artistically done by candle -flame, carving on the window sills, etc. The Holy Ghost Church was built in the 15th century and is divided ;by a wall -Protestant on one side, 'Cath- olic on the other. The Heidelberg Castle sits on a 345 -foot hill and is a heap of beautiful ruin and the old A0,000 gallon wind keg still in per - 'feet order. The view of the Black Forest, Odenwald, Neckar River and the city itself from the ruins is mag- nificent. The night before we left here we were awakened about 2'a.m by a quartette which serenaded us in front of the hotel and could those boys sing! It was quite the nicest quartette I had heard and in the quiet of the' night it must have seemed un- usually fine. From here we took a long journey by train to Lucerne. 'Had a progres- sive 'bridge party en route and dinner on the train. That was the daSr we all carried our lunch baskets and bot- tle of wine. Tea and coffee were rem ISe a cup up, extra. In Most of the countries they were very anx- ious to sell their wines and to us it didn't take the place of a good cup 'of tea, and the bottled waters didn't taste right either. July 20th -Lucerne, 35,000, partly enclosed with wallwith nine watch- towers, In the old 'bridges (covered) on each arch is a painting done in the 15th century. Colors are still in ex= cellent condition depicting the history of the country at that 'time. The Holfirche, built in 1506,''' with two slender towers, carved stalls and al tars, famous organ -0'0 7 every night there is an organ recital and the organist closes with "A. Storm in the Alps" composed by the father of the present organist. ,That night we visited the Kurkarte Roulette, danc- ing-, good orchestra. Part of our crowd decided to walk home after and passed a beer garden. Orchestra began playing a German song and called in German to came in. Ev- entually the beer and bretsels arriv ed. iGirls paid for the beer but said they didn't eat Bret. However, when they left they cleaned the plate and made for the gate with the 'wait- er following; had to return the Bret- sels which in the meantime had been thrown over the fenee, so they had to pay for the 'whole plateful,' and you should have seen these- staid school Busy hands -at hard tasks day in and day out.

As we ,,wont further, into Italy,,, we got a great maw lecturers on religaous hia`ten.Y;- We were warned of the strict disc)* line.:we would have W forgo here, as one party upon leaving a little Ital- ian town; shouted from the train win- dow, "'Goodbye, Dagoe," and thw were all arrested at the next stated. We were guarded by soldiers where. ever we went, and when the guide would lecture, 'we always had either a plainclothesman or 'soldier listening. Mussolini was at his summer home while we were in Rothe; was the only time we had to open baggage for custonit. From -Milan we took the train to Venice and went through , about 56 tunnels. Arrived in Venite 9 P.m. The train stops at the station becanse there is no future for it. Corning over a two -mule bridge into Venice, we stood .and watched the approaCIII flickering lights and nothing but Nye. - - ter. Venice -with its htIndreds of is- lands and 375 bridges, no buses. no no autos, no trucks,, no noise, only the slow moving gondola does the wok. The gondoliers start cheer - felly and most becomehuman in time, but a gondolier with a 'grouch can be the most dismal companion, for, he talks to himself all the time and one splashed me. I was wet to the skin and ruieed my summer' suit I had to have it drycleaned the next day. Just:whit-I aaid- and he said, couldn't be understood by either of us; but I seemed to get the worst of the bas - gain. We had a room facing the Grand Canal and arrived at night; steaped into the gondola width took os from the station to the hotel, and were we tired?- d went to bed but the rest isited' the St. Mark's Piazza Coffee Shops, chairs and tables xis on the sidewalk. I couldn't sleep as there was a "restaurante" just below my t.teetic.w, and an opera singer sang until early morning. At aan. heard a band play "God Save the King" and didn't remember for, a minute where I was, and looked 'out of the window.. 'What a sight! Here in the ,Grand Canal, just over about 200 yards, was a 13ritish Man -or -War and an Italian Man -of -War, anchored to the same anchor. The Italian band saluting ithe British officers. I got my glasses and sant a great sight. Those British sailors stood like star tues. Thought I might as Well get up and enjoy more of Venice for to me, not all the beoke and photographs could describe Venice. Fruit was ter- ribly -expensive here and if you bought bananas you paid for the same a- mount of bad ones. When, we -object- ed, the old fellow evidentally swore at us and took them out of the bag, and motioned us on our way.. Wie get- joyed the different customs and the different atmospheres, and hand manyn the laugh. The place was thronged with sailors and that after- noon the British sailors entertained us on the ship and took us through. They were so _gladto see Canadian girls and have someone besides them- selves to talk to. The Coventry had seen service in the North Sea dur- ing the war and saw where a .Ger- man shell had hit her. The Rialta Bridge is. over 300 .years old, and mentioned in Shakespeare's Merchatt of Venice.' This is a vegetable mark- et now. The four horses above St. Mark's Cathedral were supposed to adorn the Arch of Nero at Rome in the early centuries. Constantine brought them from Rome to Con- stantinopl'e to Venice in 1205; to Paris by Napoleon, 1797; to Venice after the downfall, 1815; to Rome for safekeeping during the Great War and are now in' place. They are bronze horses, about actual size. The :clock tower was erected the, end of the 15th century, and when the clock strikes two life-sized bronze figures come out and first one' hammers the bell and then the other. Got a good movie of this also. There are mil - 'ns of pigeons around St. Mark's; tourists feed them and get their photos taken with them in front of the Cathedral. There are few streets but majority of travel is done in gon- dolas which are attached' to long spikes in front of their bomes. Ev- erything seems very damp and mens - covered down these Venice water streets.

At the annual convention of Kent County Woad Inspecters held incently at Chatham, several dele- gates reported sow thistle to be de- creasing .,in extent, according to A. H. .Martin .assistant director, Crops and Markets Branch, Provincial De- partment of Agriculture. Thomas Skinner, weed, inspector for Camden TownshiP, reported a 30' per cent. de- crease Of saw thistle in one year. Mr. Skinner says that • this successful battle against sow thistle was brought about by the whole -hearted do-opqa- tion of the farmers and road superin- tendents with the weed inspector. Control measures . in Kent County.' on small patches, consist of spraying with chemicals. Where sow thistle has spread ex- tensively, "early after harvest culti- vation" or "summer fallowing" is xractised. A short rotation, includ- irg one specialized , crop such 'as to- bacco, sugar beets, or some other hoed crop, is very effective in check- ing all weeds, including sow thistle. -_,-..-..., March Weather.

This new company, specializing in high-grade Canadian, Government and Municipal and Cor- poration bonds,acommenced -business ori June 1, 1931. in the new Bank of Toronto Building (opppsite the !Hotel London), and after eight months.' op- eration have found it necessary to move into more spaeious quarters.

"Earl" .Siegrist is well known..in the bond freterninnahaving been associated cider the last ten years with Greenshields and 'Company and the Royal Securities Corporation. "Duncan" Anderson at the close Of the war,: due to ill.health, spent sev- eral years in Western 'Catiadan-nand was in the Bond Business for some time before making his, present con- nection. E. A.

Field inspection of seed crops for certification -in Canada results in the placing on the market of many thou- sands of bushels of seed of a quality surapdee. rior to the comairercial No. 1 g Services of this kind are rendered by Dominion 'Seed Branch inspectors in connection 'with a wide range of seed crops. With cereals and' corn, inspection is made of the standing -• ^ crop to determine purity of variety; with red clover, type, hardiness and. freedom from bladder carapion; with alfalfa .and sweet clover, origin amt typre; with alsike, origin and freedom, from bladder campion; with .timothy origin and freedoin from ox -eye daisy; with biome and western rye / grass, origin and freedom from couch / graas, and with crested wheat grass, origin and purity. 'Certified seed, after' cleaning, ie graded,taggedand sealed by governs rnent inspectors. The seed inspection certificate tag attached 'bears the certification as to the origiae grade and quality of the seed. The three prairie provinces pro- vide the bulk of certified seed of cer- eals, flax and grasses; Manitoba and Ontario, the greater part of the certi- fied seed of clovers, while most of the certified seed corn is of Ontario pro- duction. The World Owes Much. To Advertisers ALL of Us would be poorer if there were no , advertisements in our newspapers -poorer in - pocket, mind, comfort, culture. Advertisements have been called the "Poor man's University," for - they are wonderful teachers -wonderful mirrors of the world's scientific and cultural development. It is advertisements which keep us inform ed about what is being accomplished by the world's best engineers, chemists, research work- ers and technicians, in every fiel&f human en- deavor -in the realms of radio, miitor-car and tire manufacturing, food preparation, remedial preparations, domestic and personal hygiene, building materials and construction, and agri- cultural economy, home easements and beauti- fication. - If there were no advertisements in our news- papers and magazines, we'd all slip back -back to the levels of life of 50 and 100 years ago. We'd read less, trin,Te about less, lower our li- ing standards, be colitent with poorer machines, eat coarserloods and wear coarser clothing, live in unattractive homes, do a vast amount id distasteful labor, wear ill-fitting shoes, see ug nes s everywhere, have more illness, meet with more accidents, have mOre toothaches; and,pur stores -would be very dull places indeed. To blot out advertisements would be like blot- ting out the sun; --the source °flight and energy. • \ Be grateful advertisers, and show your gratitude by bu ng what they bring so faith- fully to your attention -in this and other ows- papers. ( And always itmeniber that advertisers are the world's eivilizerg and your true friends. Thia Advt. is sponsored by the Canadian Weekly NewspaPers Association • 0,f which The.
