After the morning lectures I go out to play tennis till 4 :30, slop an hour for tea at the club house, have , another set of tennis and then go . to the river, or have dinner and then go to the river. The river is the life. Instead oi i i bleak, damp, rainy days, Oxford i ’j just one mass of sunshine now.

There's plenty of room for four and one man stands in the back and pushes the boat along and it i. certainly great to lounge around in ■ the cozy corners under the trees and study and rest. ; It stays light till after '.) o'clock, so there's plenty of time fm punnting , after a -long game of tennis. It’s , almost like a dream here now. | In two of my letters recently 1 , have' mentioned a Virginia lady and 1 her daughter I met in Rome and late, in Paris. I invited them to come by ; Oxford.

Ihep o pie are ,'i : n disagreeabl- They ar, dirty and noisy and they seem tc think tourists, especially Americans arc made of money and e.cry Neo politan think: up some excuse fol gouging his part, out of each pool traveler. And bargaining, my good ness, everyone in South Italy always asks just about twice as much as they expect and if you can’t cut the original price in half, you feel that you are being cheated. They just bleed you for money, beg, lie, steal, anything just lo get a few lire. They sing all night long and if they can’t sing they find some other way to make a noise. Naples at 1 a. m. sound.' like Five Points at noon. Re mind? me of Spain a little in that re spect. Immigrants Lowest Type. The thing that makes me mad though, is the fact that all the Ital ian immigrants we get at home come from Southern Italy and are the low est type Italians. The Italians around Venice, Florence and Milan are pretty decent people. From now on I'm certainly against immigration, especially from Southern Italy. There is not much to see in Naples but Vesuvius, Pompeii and Capri were well worth the cost of the trip. We left our hotel one morning to t ee Pompeii and Vesuvius and on the way to the station a Neopolitan guide got hold of us. That man followed us, urged, pleaded and bargained lor an hour and after we had cussed and discussed him all that time we just had to atop and laugh. Talk about persistence, one of these guides takes the cake. However, he cut his origi nal price in half and finally showed us a letter of recommendation from one of his former patrons and who should it be but my good old Oxford chum, Tong, from Arizona, so there was nothing for us to do but hire him. We rode on a train for an hour to Pompeii. It was so interesting and is quite different from the other Ro man ruins in that it is very well pre served. You can see how the people lived and just what was there. The streets have not changed a bit. They are very narrow, about two feet be low the level of the side walks or door steps. The streets drained the city so the water would evidently be about a foot deep. Every few yards are huge stepping stones in the middle of the street. Wine must have flowed like water there for nearly every other shop was a wine shop. The houses are well preserved and are built on the pateo style. The paintings on the walls are remarkably well preserved, some being very good We saw eggs, coffee and bread which were found buried in the lava. Then were petrified human bodies. The faces are all pictures of horror and fear. One of a dog was interesting. These things are not faked, either. Public Ruins. We saw the old temple, the public baths, the theater and all the reg ul'ar institutions of the city. An in teresting thing to me. was the fact that the sea used to come up to Pompeii but all the excavation has been dumped into the sea with the result that the sea has been pushed back two miles. We caught a train about 2 t». m. from Pompeii to the foot of Vesuvius. Our guide turned us over to a thug and four sorry nags and started up the mountain, it is absolutely bare and is covered from top to bottom with layer after layer of lava with deep gullies running down to the valleys below. The view of the bay from Vesuvius is wonderful with the very blue water entirely surrounded by mountains which enclose the flat little plane on which Pompeii and Nanles rest. The mountain has a steep but reg ular slope and the top instead of going to a point seems to have been sliced off, leaving a huge hollow cir cular tube at the top and you can look down f’cm its rim for about 200 yards.

It .’, ,s a two hour trip by boat and is >• just .. beautiful little island in the <■ bay of Naples. It rained ail day o, though and we didn’t have a very s, good day for, sight seeing. The Blue >- Grotto is at one end of the island r'and is very interesting. The coloring i is marvelous and the entrance into I- the Grotto is worlds of fun. It is a s, very small entrance which varies s' from one to two feet above the water e according to the tide. We had to lay t down in the bottom of a row boat, t The oarsman gave the boat a shove I and it smashed and banged against y the top and side until the tile final t ly washes it in-ide. The water and o walls and everything takes on a tint i. if bine that bluing gives water. It ■■ was a clear as crystal and everything I underneath is a bright silvery hue. This trip was a good example of the method of the natives in South d ern Italy of holding up the tourists. - We paid to go cm a boat to Capri, e ' On arrival we were informed we must - pay to go on to the Blue Grotto, s At file Blue Grotto, we iad to pay ii to be rowed from the shin to the v Grotto. Inside we were made to pay i,l to :.ee a boy dive in the water and i again we had to pay on entering the Grotto, isn’t it. disgusting? You get 'i mad enough to boil, but you can’t >■ help yourself. They have it all fix >' ed and - baited. Robin Hood. Jesse eiJame; or the forty thieves, had noth <’ ing on these people in South Italy. The Train Systems. r The train system in different coun d tries interests me and I believe will t be of interest to vou. Bv train I t mean i the third class system. In 3 France, the people and the trains ■ are excellent. In Spain the people d: arc- awful but the trains accommo ii date the crowd. But in Italy every o iri’d class seat is taken five minutes d after the train is made up which is e exactly an hour before it is sched i. u’ed to leave. I shall never miss o another train. We stood up for three d trips end then began to get there an - bow or mere before the leaving time. Tim altitude of a ear of people fill e o,| to th-oo times its capacity is cer eltainly funny. We open the door and y they see us and all our bags and we '- get a blank stare to tell us we are r, not wanted. But once we show our e ' determination to come in any way, y the entire attitude changes and ev crybcdy helps us with our bags, e! crowd themselves a little more to t give us standing room and we soon r become a part of the amiable crowd, e They are great travelers. d There is certainly one thing that e should draw all Italy close together, v ’i",;.; i s the flea nuisance. It is uni i, -crsal in Italy and impossible to hi avoid unless you happen to be flea e! proof. Some people are and some e! are not. Jones and I are, while d I Hamilton and Hermot are just eaten b up by the pests. It is quite a pop '■ ular subject among tourists to ask: “How did you like Rome?” c “Fine, how are you standing the : fleas?” We fared pretty well in Italy. But t ter is a luxury. o. But to get on with our trip. We s came back through Rome, stopped e there a day, then to Florence again d for a day and then to Venice. Venice is divided into two distinct i. sections. One comprises the Piazza ’■ i of St. Mark’s which you see in all g i the pictures and the length of the P 1 Grand Canal. The other is the part e|of the city in the rear of the Grand n , Canal in the interior of the island h ' which is composed of dirty houses, c I but mostly of canals. V Canals Everywhere. e ! I think it must be the most unique d city in the world. There are canals t ; everywhere. Os course you know tl | the streets are just about all canals. i The city is made up of 117 islands, 150 canals and 378 bridges. While f running around England, France, u j Spain and Italy I’ve seen a few places -1 which were rather confusing to a ti! man for his first hour on trying to t get located, but they all take a back c seat to Venice. Jones and I started i out from the station to find Piazza . of St. Mark’s and instead of follow . ing the round about way of the Grand i Canal, we struck out directly across j the citv. It took us two hours and : a half to get there. Every other al ! Icy (the streets which are not canals are just little alley ways) led into ■ a canal and every other one led into ian alley that led into a canal. The -1 labyrinth makers should study Ven- ■ ice. So until we located a hotel and be ’, gan to see the real Venice of beau ' ' ly, we wer quite disgusted with the ' i place. Sees Miss Kclman. Marjory Kolman was in Venice ' traveling with her school. We found her at tier hotel which was located right on the Grand Canal, where it , runs into the bay and never in all my life have 1 seen a more fascinat ing, beautiful and charming scene ’ than we experienced that night, f The canal is 75 yards wide and -' from the hotel we could see all the j lights of Venice reflected on the wat er. Out in the harbor was a monster , dreadnaught, proudly reflecting its I American outline. The only noise ’ ■ which disiurbcd the night was the lap ping of the waters against the sides of the gondolas silently and slowly slipping past as we heard way down tiie canal the sounds of a Venetian " I serenade—a party of Venetians, ■ i drifting along in a gondola amusing ' thimsclvcs with two violins, an ac ’ I cordian and a mandolin. Above all - this was the Venetian stars and moon t in all their glory. That’s the place! -for poets. All Marjory’s friends r came out and we listened to the : music for about an hour. It was a wonderful evening which I shall nev- ; i er forget. The Piazza at St. Mark’s is just ~ ' a huge square surrounded by a con- - ■ tinuous building of uniform height and Venetian architecture on three II siiles and . a beautiful church on the _ | other. The (inter of the square is simply alive with pigeons. They are so tame they eat out of your hand. It was a lot of fun feeding them. e The shops of Venice are even more I fascinating than thosj in Florence AMERICUS TIMES-RECORDER. ? SOCIETY PROM DANCE SATURDAY • i NIGHT TOR SENIORS -Miss 1< rances Sparks entertained! Saturday evening at her home on i Taylor street at a delightful prom | party complimenting the graduating | class and a few friends. A color scheme of white and green i was detailed in the hall and recep tion room by tne use of- Shasta: daisies and fern sprays arranged in I vases and baskets. Carnations were ! used in the living room, where the! guests assembled. The punch howl presided over by Miss Harriet Rylander and Miss ' ( harlotte Sparks was embedded in lavender hydrangeas, with trailing vines festooned about the sides. The hostess was assisted in enter taining by Miss Mary Parker. Included in the list were Miss Mary Godwin, Miss Louise Bragg, Miss Ethel Wells, Miss Hallie Walk er, Miss Frances Snarks, Miss Annie I urner.

Miss Lucy Simmons. Miss Lucy Lane, T. J. Wall is, Harry Sullivan, Neil Hodges, George Turpin, George Walker, Nath j and Rome. All the Venetian women j have dark, black hair, wear heavy; black shawls and go bareheaded. Ev-} eryone of them is dressed exactly' alike. There is nothing wonderful about the Rialto or the Bridge of I Sighs which you always see repre-! ‘enting Venice. I saw mere Germans in Venice! than in any other city of niy travels. I I suppose it is because it is so near) to Germany. I counted 25 of them ) at one restaurant table. I saw an other funny thing on a hotel regis-! ter there. Some one had gone through the book and drawn a little German pig by the side of each Gel man name. So though we disliked Venice at fir- 1 , we left there in love with it.
