“Of f His Big Trip to Turope,

Hazelton, B.C,

. oth Installment,

On Saturday mornlig, July’ 381st.,
We arose early With the sun shining.
Wea
‘Were all sorry to leave Naplés so soon
but anxions to urrive
‘having 9 jong. journey akead of us

‘| from the sungdy. south to.-Florence in
ithe north. The most trying.thing on

80 jon ga train’ jonrney wns that the
niliwny officials and the police were
continually going through the train to
‘arrest anyone who happened to put

| their foot on the carriage seats which

ennt a fine of 10 Hires. However
thp day. ended with only one of ‘the
party belng caught. It was certainly

J easy to note the difference in the eoun-

try as we'travelled northward. The
the peasnuts of the sonth are very lnzy
wn indifferent while. those of the
the north are progressive. The. scen-
nery, however was wonderful 911 :the
way. Having lunched on the train we
hroke cur journey at Rome to spend a
few hours and ‘to refresh our memor-
ies by. visiting agnin many of the ruins
which had appealed to vs most, and to
take a general survey of the city by
the nid ofea motor bus. We entrained
ngnin in time to have onr dinner while
travelling, The first place of note
was Pisi with its world wonder, the
famdus Leaning Tower and Cathedral.
T is something that has got science
beaten and it is in itself another work
of admiration for ancient bbuilding.
We eventually arrived at Florence at
10.30 p.m. In the pouring rain to stay
at the famous hotel Stella de Italia.
Florence is known as the City of Flow-
ers Lying in the beuntiful valley of the
Arno, and it has been awarded the
title of “The Falrest City of-the world.
Indeed few cities are so rich in works
of art, in archaeoligical and historical
records and relics. The birth place of
Dinte, Petrarch, Bocerecio, “Galileo,
‘Michsel Angelo, Leonardo de Vinci,
Benvenuto Cellini, and Andren del
Sarto. What recollections are awak-
ened in the minds of the ‘appreciative

While turrying i na spot which has giv-

en birth to such noble contributors to
poetry and the arts, Palaces contain-
and seulptures, beauti-
ful gardens ndorned with statues and
fonntains, churches famous throughout
the world, and open squares or piazzas
form the principal objects of interest
in this delightful city—the pride - of
‘Tuse: aUny. Two cities hnve been lead-
ers of nitions in art and letters—Ath-

ens and Florence. Ancient Athens is
noruin, but today Florence holds the
thonghtful os no other city in Italy

then returned for lunch only to eom-
mence our tour again as soon as it was
over, This time we drove in earriag-
es to the Medici Chapel. This was the
burial chapel of the grand dukes of
the Medici family, and was construct:

unfinished although it is’ estimated
that the fumily has expended nearly.
$5,000,000 on its construction and de-
coration and this must speak for itself
for its beauty. In the new sacristy.
