THOMAS JEWELER - “It’s Time That Counts” CLINTON JOANNA MY TRIP TO EUROPE By CORNELIA HARRIS England and Scotland The most impressive and inter esting city in the British Isles is London which we always com pared with other places. It is full of history and still shows many effects of .the bombings during the war years. A very thrilling experience was being in Westminster Abbey, partly destroyed during the war and at the site where the corona tion took place, which was much smaller than what we had imag ined. Many famous poets, writ ers and musicians are buried in the abbey, which was full of many sculptures and monuments. Our hotel was small but serv ed good meals and just about two blocks from Piccadilly Cir cus and the main shopping dis tricts. We were also near Tra falgar Square, and one girl on the tour received a small box of pea nuts from a friend to feed the pigeons in the square, which she promptly did. Another delightful experience was seeing the changing of the guards at Buckingham Palace, along with millions of other tour ists. We were not actually close enough to see the normal pro cedure but all were attired in col orful red coats and dark trousers with large headgear. The horse guards also wore colorful cos tumes and both guard changings took place every other day at 10 in the morning. The palace is very large and drab looking and we also passed by the home of the Queen Mother and Princess Margaret. — One night in London a group of us decided to go to Parliament and on the way passed 10 Down- street, the home of British Prime Minister Eden. There was a car with a chauffeur in front of the sesidence but we thought Eden was not coming out as there were no guards around. Nevertheless, we stopped in front of the house a few minutes, anxiously wait ing, and started down the street after a few minutes, having given up the idea of seeing anyone. No sooner had we walked a few steps that a long black car pass ed and Eden waved to the four of us alone, as no one else was around. A most thrilling expe rience. He was very distinguish ed looking and looks like his pic tures from our quick glimpse. He was recently married to the niece of Churchill, who is a good bit younger than he. While in London we enjoyed the stage show, ‘Teahouse of the August Moon”, the main star being a real goat. All forms of entertainment are much cheaper than in the U. S., and one could sit high up in the stalls in the atres for about 40c in addition to seeing opera in Rome for about $1.80 and some seats cheaper than that. Several castles we visited were very historical and full of gor geous sculpture, furniture tapes tries, etc. We were able to see a good bit of Windsor Castle, in cluding the royal apartments of Queen Elizabeth which are not always open to the public, and went on to Warwick Castle where the “Black Rose” was filmed. Stratford is really the true Shakespeare country, stopping to see his birthplace, the church in which he worshipped, and Ann Hathaway's cottage, where he courted, which is the most photo graphed thatched cottage in the vorld. We were no table to se cure tickets for the Shakespeare play, in which the Oliviers play several nights each week during the season. Our guide for the British Isles was a very charming person, an ?ccomplished actor who. in Ham let, played his big role by say ing, “Yes, my Lord,” 127 times, in addition to lecturing at Oxford, his alma mater, on English his tory. He had a keen sense of humor and spoiled us for the rest of the trip by telling us interest ing bits of history and exper iences. Edinburgh had terrible weath er in store for us and therefore, didn't leave too good an im pression on us. We enjoyed see ing a performance by Ruth Dra per. who gives character sketch es and does remarkably well to be about TO years old.
