The labor in the fields is carried on in a very primitive- way. Oxen tor plowing are quite common. and the old-lash- louell wooden plow is still in vogue. Frequently we saw women standing in the river pounding their clothes on the stones to cleanse them. On the whole the people ot Italy pre- sent a poverty-stricken appearance although there are the two classes the very rich and the very poor. The wealthy have very beautiful homes amid attractive surroundings. in the city or Milan we saw the famous painting "The Last Supper" by in Vina, We also visited the ‘bvautiiul cemetery where all the wealthy families have their mauso~‘ leulus which are all ditlerent and very vastly.

We visit- ed the crypt where St. Peter is pro» claimed to be buried and saw the large bronze statute ot St. Peter in the church We went on to the Vatican where we were favored with an audience with the late Pope Benedict. The Vatican art gallery contains an astonishing array ot statuary and paintings. Returning trom St. Peter's we viewed the Pam theon which was built in 27 Irc., and at St, Paul’s Cathedral where the Benedictine monks llve we were shown the tomb of St, Paul. In this church there are some beautiful ala, bastor columns and mosaic work. in the centre of the plum. stands an obelisk brought from Heliopolis, Egypt and erected in the 16th cen- tury.

The dome its the con- ception ot Michael Angelo, ltaly's great and wonderful artist-architect. The diameter ot the dome is 140 feet and its height to the top ot the cross 435 feet. The interior decor. ations are very wonderful. There are no paintings, but the Bible scenes are all in mosaic, and the work is so perfect that from a dis- tance they resemble paintings. One scene, "The Transfiguration of Christ," took four men ten years to complete it. All other scenes are similar with splendour at every Ji) fu the Treasury we saw the richly} Jewelled stoles worn by the various tapes. and also the richly carved‘ chalk-es, set with precious stone. to M "uetattt" I, - M “on him - inlay nil Mo "on to In tom to - W. - the 'Fm-d do.

To the right rise the walls ot the Vatican, and We boarded the Minnedoea at Liverpool for our return voyage. We encountered many icebergs on our way home, some ot which were very close. Sevrxal of them may have been more than a. mile long and they projected high above the water with a cathedral effect and the glint of the sun upon them made a very fine sight. We were also fortunate enough to see many porpoises and one day We ran Into a school ot whales numbering 10 or '12. some oi which were quite close. One day while sitting on deck with ‘the Hun shining gloriously we no ticed what seemed to be the rock- Lound coast or Quebec. While took- ing at the skyline of the coast we saw a very marked change in the outline almost instantly and thle process continued tur quite a long time We concluded that this pe- i'uliar atmospheric condition which brought about this optic illunlon “on a mirage. Someone may ask what impress- ed us most on our trip. We thor- oughly enjoyed the change of scen- ery from plare to place and were greatly interested in the people of rho various countries, yet we were particularly impressed in gotntt around London and environments at the great strides in the process at to the extensive reforestlug which is carried on in Belgium. France and Switzerlannd. We saw vast areas ot mountain and waste lands reforest- ed, some of which must have been done 50 years judging from the size of the trees. We were forcibly reminded of our laxity In Canada in not planting our waste areas with trees. This ends our ramblings on the continent, as we now take a train direct to Paris and trom more to Calais where we cross the strain. to Dover and on to London where we spend several days. Before leavlnx the continent we would like to rater Lolly as Mr. Lloyd George called together delegates of 34 nations tor a peace conference there. We now journey towards the Swluerland border again to a place called Stress which is a very beautiful resort. There is good hotel accommodation having imbibed enough of Swiss thrill and cleanliness to make it attractive. The mountain and lake view is magnificent and an early morning walk along the lake from where some beautiful Italian homes are located was much enjoyed.
