But I began to notice that he would stop to study every guide post and then it was noticeable he was backing up the car and correcting his earlier judgment on what was the right road to follow. The mistakes of judgment, or whatever wax being used by him to guide us through that maze of separations of the highways, became so numerous that I began to help keep track of the road signs for him and progress began to be a bit better. Between the sloppy weather, which was so good for the farmer, and the uncertainties of being on the Bright road, coupled with the necessity of travelling slow because the road would be w(? behind our schedule. It isn't easy visiting some of the historic points when a typical English rain is Is such a soaking rain with no half-way zeal about it. Visiting places of interest generally involves long Jn the open from where your car is left, and many of the points of interest are not roofed Oliver Cromwell or the Eighth's Thomas Cromwell or the Earl of Hertford or someone else back four to 600 years ago stole the roofs for the sake of the lead from which they were made, Intending to make bullets out of the lead.

We plodded on bravely in the and it wax the very first day during our stay here that rain had caused us any inconvenience, Kenllworth Castle Ruins During the day we saw the ruins of Kenilworth Castle, were permitted to inspect Warwick Castle, one of the few that Oliver Cromwell didn't leave a heap of ruins. We visited the place famous as Banbury where the nursery rhyme says the old woman got on a white horse. We also visited Coventry where the Lady Godlva took her famous ride and the very place was pointed out to use where the solitary "peeping Tom" peered through a crack In a window to see the nude woman do her ride. Everybody else in Coventry, hearing what the Lady Godiva was going to do, stayed Indoors and gave her chance to make the ride without being embarrassed. The ride was to save her people from a savage decree.

We cama through a beautiful rolling country by winding roads which are up and down hill and call for constant attention of the chauffeur. They ride on the left side of the road here. One meets bicycles everywhere. I have often wondered who could possibly buy the used cars here, If ever they be come "used" cars, since It ap'pears about all the possible used-cars customers are astride bicycles. It calls for constant vigilance to avoid hitting them.

There is another situation on the highways, which would cause intense Irritation In our own country, but here the patience of the British is well illustrated. Everywhere In the rural districts herds of cows and sheep may be seen walking on the of course with someone In charge, but nevertheless It Is necessary to stop and let them get out of the way. Imagine some of our speedy drivers refraining from plowing through them. The driving of livestock on the highways has always been the rule and perhaps always will be. Quern Elizabeth's Bed Throughout England it is a rare bed, If one may believe it, in which Queen Elizabeth did not sleep.

In some of the places we have visited, those who were exhibiting historic articles, claim distinction for particular beds in which they say Queen Elizabeth did "not" sleep. We were assured at Kenllworth Castle that the Royal bed we were shown had not the claim to distinction of having comforted the tired limbs of the English Queen, who must have slept almost everywhere available during her life. We wound up the day's trip at an ancient hotel at Broadway, which Is the most delightful place we have so far visited. It has a room where King Charles the First Is said to have slept and where Oliver Cromwell held his headquarters. The place has every appearance of great but Is cozy and comfortable, and the service there of the highest quality.

The floors nre very uneven and worn and the imlls are lined with ancient paintings and the dining room with metal armor and with Implements of war. After night at the Lygon Arms Intel we set out on an all-day our that was to bring us to the lotel in London, During the course of the day's riding we passed hrouuli many beautiful typical English cities and villages, Age With Whiskers In ninny of them modernization irograniK are under way to change he old time buildings. Everything lere Is no old it makes everything about which we know seem very new. A building here that is a nera few hundred years of age Leslie Barton, went to school. We arrived just too early for visitors to be admitted.

It was suggested to me that If I should go to the Trinity College and tell them there that my friend was a Trinity boy, they might waive the rule and let me go through, even If it was too early for not being admitted until 2 p. m. I did as coached and the result was magical. I was permitted to enter, and told to tell anyone who might attempt to interfere that a friend of mine was a boy there. We visited other parts of Oxford after that, especially Christ Cathedral and college.

Later we passed Eton College where the boys are required to wear silk hats and cutaway coats until they reach a certain age and status as students there. Gray's Tomb It was a real thrill to visit Stoke Poges where the poet Thomas Gray wrote his immortal Elogy in a Country Church Yard and where he was buried. We stood beside Gray's tomb and viewed the yew tree beneath which he is said to have been inspired to write one of the greatest poems in the English language. Hundreds of people visit that place every day, many of them Americans. I had but a short time ago come from scenes connected with Gen.

Charles Wolfe, who died in capturing Quebec and gave Canada to the British Empire. Wolfe, it will be recalled, while accompanying his troops down river at night for the assault on the heights of Quebec which was to take place victoriously the next morning, repeated Gray's Elegy and as he came to the lines: The of heraldry, Ihc pomp of And all that beauty, aM that wealth ere gave. Await alike the Inevitable hour, The of Klory lead hut to the crave. Then he said, "I would rather have been the author of that poem than have the glory ot beating the French tomorrow." How prophetic! Both he and his foeman, Gen. Montcalm, were to know the truth of that sentiment on the morrow, as both died in that battle.

The Hnes of I he poem kept recurring to me as I stood beside that simple tomb. Humble though his lot then may have been as he wrote his great elegy, his was not to be the fate he described in his poem: "Can storied um or animated bunt Back to 1U mansion call the fleeting breath: Can honor's voice provoke the silent duit Or soothe the dull cold ear ot death? Full many a sein of purest ray serene The dark un fathomed caves df ocean hear Full many a flower li born to blush unseen. And waste Its beauty on the desert olr. Today Gray Is at the summit of his greatness, a summit from which this master of English poetry will never descend. Today it Is along no cool sequestered vale of life his fame keeps in the even tenor of its way.

English Speaking of cool and dequestered vales, England abounds in them. Most of them are hidden behind high walls and well kept hedges but, once behind them, one finds everyone in England shows love for beauty spots. The garden at the home of Mr. and Mrs. William Galbally, former Altonians, is typical of what one finds behind mess grown walls or lowering close well kept hedges.

Mr. and Mrs. Galbally have one of those beautiful formal gardens which would grace any of our best- kept parks in the big cities. A spa- clous lawn ol close cropped grass springs beneath the foot as If one was treading on an axmlnster ear- pet. Along the borders and to the background are Cowers which on close examination are familiar enough to us, but how different The roses, for example, grow to great size and achieve rare beauty in the cold damp air of England.

Flowers which our heat and drought keep low and small spring to surprising heights and luxuriant growth In bush and.bloom. Many flowers forbidden to us by our climate are found here, and much of the verdure is all the year round. This, be It known. Is because England, though much nearer the pole than we are. has a much more uniform climate, no extremes of heat and cold, and never is the ground frozen deep In winter.

This may be realized when it is told that few houses In the British Isles have central heating plants, and most of them rely on little fire places to lake off the chill. The Galbally garden was the first we had the opportunity of giving close Inspection, during our five-day stay as their guests, but afterward I saw other gardens and realized that England is truly beautiful behind those barriers which fill the demand for privacy so dear to the British heart. English Friendly Boce I have often been told that the British people were cold, hard 'to get to warm up to a stranger. I have found it altogether different from what I was prepared to experience. They do resent anyone trying to show off, but If they are approached in the right manner, they seem eager to respond the full limit in friendly courtesy.

We visited Windsor Castle today and had opporeunlty to pass through the state department, viewing treasures of art, portraits and paintings by famous painters, beside many other treasures. The tour included the court room where stands the throne. I had believed a throne was something of greater grandeur, but I was close to it and it is like a big, not too ornate, chair. Yet around that throne and its occupant cluster a sentiment that makes the people of Great Britain content to pay a huge sum for the'support of royalty. It is the symbol of the Empire, and a symbol only.

I am convinced that while the people of Great Britain did regret the abdication of the recent King so that he could marry the American woman of his choice, that the new King and Queen will speedily make their own place in the hearts of the people they rule. When the British sovereign and his wife are on display he wears the uniform of an admiral In the British Navy and she wears elegant but simple gowns and makes no show of superiority in manner or in dress. Their modesty would become many a person who could less well afford sartorial magnificence. Lord Mayor's Chair Just a few letters from some at Edinburgh, some more here Jate this afternoon. I learn that my good friend, Henry Ringe- mann, has passed on.

It is with the deepest regret the news reached me. I had known him since postmaster, was his superior in I had always liked the kindly, smiling gentleman. Before closing, I would go back to Liverpool where last Saturday I visited the celebrated Town Hall. It was through the courtesy of Sir James Sexton that the freedom of the town hall was granted to us last Saturday. There we were shown through the building by a gracious gentleman designated for the purpose by.

Sir He was told to show us everything and I believe he omitted nothing, even letting me occupy the dignified position in the Yord Mayor's chair for a few minutes. This evening we met in London two Altonians who are on tour Mrs. Daisy Creswick-Rice and Miss Eva Mack. Mrs. Rice has arranged our tour for us and was delighted to know that it was turning out pleasantly.

She and Miss Mack are now to take up travel in the country over which we have already been, having first toured on the continent. Mrs. Rice is a good tour director and deserves consideration of anyone planning a tour. PAUL B. COUSLEY.
