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 reply was: that there was not any one in the world with gut: fielent moxiey to. purchase them’ and that the collection would, be apolled if broken up...

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.
