That is a lovely memory— a perfectly dear English family, with a “Darcy” and an “Eric” and a “Wilfred” and other lovely English names as well as ways, Next came Paris. Some way I've never sighed for Paris much and I was very loath to leave London to go there; had a terrible “grouch” all day—crossing the channel. Paris though 1{s beautiful, everything sparkling clean and no pains or money spared to secure the beautiful effect in streets and buildings. Ver- sailles, Petit Trianon, Malmalson, Place de las Bastile, the Louvre—all these we enjoyed, of course, but you have read of them from so many others who write so much better than I, I won't try to describe them here. In Paris we met a friend of brother's, an Oxford student, who is spending his vacation in the Latin quarter. Knowing him, gave us the chance to ‘“snoop” around down there somewhat, as well as to visit a very gay French cafe. Some of our steamer friends were also with us here. From Paris we went to Brussels, thence to Cologne, where we saw, of course, the wonderful cathedral and the beautiful picture of Queen Louise; den, and took the trip down the Rhine, beautiful, of course, but not more go, I think, than our river Hud- son, though, of course, the castles make it lovely, Bingen, Die Lovelei, the Hause and others. Then my adored Heldelberg! Doesn’t the very thought of Heidel. berg make you thrill? I love the dear little village snuggled down among the mountains—it has the very atmosphere of university life, and when 'Tsaw some students with nice, long scars on their faces, like they all have, you know, I, just wanted to embrace them—they were 80 exactly like I'd always imagined them, especially ‘since I saw that dear play, “Old Heldelberg.” We went through . the university, of course and enjoyed it immensely. From Heidelberg we went to that cleanest of all cities—Berlin. My, but it is beautiful, and I had a big time there.

I'm beginning to “skim” now because I'm getting tired and my time's getting short and 1 must tell you a little about Switzerland and Italy.

Here we saw some wonderful churches, Giotto’s tower and the Pit. ti and Ufizzi art galleries—rare treats all of them. I haven’t said much about the many wonderful zalleries we've been in because they have something you can’t say a lit- tle about and I haven’t the time to say much. I believe you would have been particularly interested in Flor- ence in seeing the grave of Mrs. Browning (here we have seen those of Shelly and Keats) as well as the house where she died. Of course there were lots of interesting things there, more than I had known of be- fore,, the works of Michael Angelo, Tinteretto, Lorenzo da Vinel, Titian and many other great genuises.
