very comfortable. AIL members of the
party remarked again how healthy and
prosperous everything looked and how
absent were war after effects. There
wis a drigzling rain, but we donned
slickers and hicked around the city
Dresien is the capitol:of the free state
of Saxony in Germany and it is claim-
ed by most tourists to be the loveliest
city lu Burope. For this Dresden is
indebted to its incomparably building
situation, its excellent ground plan,
and its world renowned art treasures.
it offers the advantages of any mod-
cra metropolis, without the disadvant-
ages and annoyances of the latter.
You can avoid the bustle of metropoli-
tau life while comfortably enjoying the
conveniences for the’ gardens and
wootis extend wight into town, It 1s
sltiated on the banks of the Elbe, We!
were. all looking forward to the follow-
ing days ‘tour through: the. city. We
commenced by visiting the Zwvinger
Palece which is now a picture gallery
with one of the finest: collections of
paintings in Germany, “Toly . Night”
by Correggio, “Holy Family” by Titiau
and: “Tribute: Money”? (original Bak-
ors Chocolates adv.) and then a room
all by itself for Raphaels “Sistine
Madonna. ” It was very impressive.
No talking was allowed und it gave one
the feeling that one was standing on
Holy Ground. In room after room are
works of the gventest “maaters and. it
is one of the most satisfying collections
in the world. All the paintings with
very few exceptions are the originals.
We next went to. see the Green Vault,
containing various collections of works
in Gems whieh are the most renark-
nble in Durope. Many of them are
mere curiosities, illustrating the skill
of. man.  Wspecially remarkable is the

the train; or at least a good part. of it,

We then saw the crown Jewels of Sax-

for they were valued at many billlons

bers of ‘the party asked’ the guard why
these were not sold and war, Indem-

was not any one in the world with gut:

that the collection would, be apolled if
broken up... Then agaln tourists were

Other places of note were the Great

the Frauen. church. From another

Bruhl Terrace, : the Frederick Augis-
tus bridge, the parliament building,
the castle, the Catholic church, and. ithe
Zwinger. It was quite a: change to

leries and palaces, and we had acquir-
ed a great appetite for dinner,

in the evening the party went to
the Desidenz theatre to witness 1 mus-
ical comedy “Grigri”, The moruing of
the next day was free for shopping.
By now the number of suit cases,
and bags had more then doubled and a.
little extra time had to be given each
place for packing, and more rushing’
from carirage to carriage to see if all!
the bagy, etc., were ‘safely on the troin.
After lunch we took the train ngain,
this ‘time for Berlin. We started at
two o'clock and got to Berlin about
five-thirty.

In Berlln we stayed at the Eotel
Prinz Albrecht. The train journey
had: been short 2nd the scenery was
most interesting, As we got near to
Berlin we noticed the solidness of. the
buildings, There was uo bénuty, just
massiveness and lacking the unelent
splendor, As We arrived at the hotel
we noticed a wedding party going in
ahead of ts accompanied by band and
much splendor. Dinner over all de-
