THE CLINTON CHRONICLE
MY TRIP TO
EUROPE
By CORNELIA HARRIS
Germany is one country that
has made a terrific recovery since
the war, with a great deal in store
for the American tourist. We visit
ed Munich, (Frankfurt, Heidelburg,
Cologne, Bad Schwatbach, Frei
burg, some more heavily bombed
than others.
Cologne was about 90 per rent
bombed during the war and is a
very industrial city. While there,
we visited the Cathedral, about
1,100 years old, a part of which is
still unused from war time. Our
hotel was very new and modern,
only it was right across from the
railroad station where reconstruc
tion was taking place, so cement
mixers noisily aroused us in the
morning.
At Coblenz we boarded the
Rhine steamer which lasted for
four hours, having lunch on
board. After gazing at castles for
so long it grew rather monotonous
bpl all were beautiful sights, in
cluding large grape orchards, up
the hillsides along the way.
While at Frankfurt, 1 was able
to see two former Clinton resi
dents, Mrs. Hank Cronic and Mrs.
Rpbert Berm, daughter of Dr. L.
Ross Lynn, president of the or
phanage for 25 years. Both were
very nice and took me to several
officer’s clubs for meals in the
same day. Oh to see so many
Americans!
Heidelburg was an interesting
city and especially the old "Red
Ox” Inn, where we were served I
a typical German meal of wieners
and sauer-kraut, not as strong as
ours. Many students of the uni-
\-ersity have dined there and dec
orations were very attractive
around the rooms. The student’s
prison at the university dated back
from 1712 and all rooms were dec
orated by many drawings done by
|he prisoners, who spent from
three to five days there for crimes
committed.
Germany’s Rhine Falls were
about 6,000 years old and not as
high as Niagara but very magnifi
cent.
Munich, the country’s third
largest city, was 40 per bent de
stroyed during the war, and the
site of the King’s Square, where
many parades were staged during
Hitler’s reign. The Nymphenburg
Palace, modeled after Versailles,
contained lovely Flemish tapes
tries and much gold everywhere.
Colored figures on the balcony at
city hall comprise the Glocken
spiel, who come out each morning
at 11 o’clock to perform, doing
various dances, dating back to
1618. A rooster crows at the end,
and the whole procedure is watch
ed toy thousands every morning,
being the main tourist attraction
to Munich.
Germany was one of my favor
ite countries and very much simi
lar to own own USA. Most Ger
mans speak English, although one
on our tour, Virginia Gausewitz,
spoke German fluently, which
came in handy when English was
not spoken. The fact is true in all
countries, however, that one can
be understood in any language
when wanting to buy something.
•<Life” magazine had an interest
ing article in the current issue
about the beer festival in Munich
and showed pictures of the typi
cal Germans.
Many army and air force camps
are centered around Frankfurt and
other points and most families
choose Germany in regard to liv
ing conditions, about all others.
It was a picturesque sight to see
at the Rhein Main base near there
herds of sheep grazing on the
grass at the air bases, being watch
ed toy shepherds and watch-dogs.
Austria is situated next to Ger
many and a very picturesque
country, although not very large.
Salzburg was very historical and
one could spend several weeks
there as there was much to see.
We also visited Innsbrook for one
night, and marveled at the beauty
of the Austrian Lake District, far
superior over the other countries.
Our guide in Salzburg was very
good and dressed in a peasant
style like typical Austrians. We
did not go to Vienna, which was
very fortunate, as trouble was
brewing there all sOrjimer. The
opera house was recently re
opened there and ten million dol
lars spent on rebuilding.
Next week I will continue on
Austria, including also Switzer
land, Belgium and Holland, which
will conclude these articles on my
European tour this summer.
CARD OF THANKS
We wish to express our sin
cere appreciation for the many
kindnesses shown during the ill
ness and passing of our wife and
mother. We also thank the doc
tors and nurses at Hays hospital
for their care.

Here’s proof: Note the black deposit on
plate at left, caused by the “dirty-burning
tail-end” of gasoline—the part Gulf refines
out in making New Super-Refined NO-NOX.
But see how clean new NO-NOX leaves the
plate at right. Now—in your own new 1956
car—see how clean-burning NO-NOX can
give you more miles per gallon in the short-
trip, s top-and-go driving you do most.

Here’s why: Most conventional oils are re
fined only to the stage shown in A. But
New Gulfpride Select is further refined by
the Alchlor Process—removing up to 15%
more of the carbon-formers, in B... C
contains the new super-refined oil that gives
you more miles per quart because it has natu
ral viscosity (body)—contains no artificial
thickeners that break down in service.
REMEMBER: No gasoline alone can give you today’s finest performance...no oil alone
can give you today’s finest protection. Get the new super-power GAS-OIL TEAM..;
