COULD NOT GET AWAY FROM GERMANY ACCOUNT OF WAR Young Ladies From This City Could Not Secure Accomoda tions and Slpet in Streets Living in peaceful Anderson, it i? rnthor lmrd for local people to gain any clear conception of conditions now existing in tu-; roreign countries hut u letter Just received In Anderson from Misse; Floride and Gone Harris, touring the old country, giver, a vivid accouru of the things they have under gone. One or the most striking fea tures of the story coming to Anderson is the fact that Misa Nell Marlon and Miss Messie Major.? who arc also In Europe, wore forced to spend one en tire night on the streets of Merlin. The young ladies were stopping at a well known hotel there, hut when the war broke out they gavo up their rooms and wont to the station, expect ing to cet transport at ion home. They returned to their hotel, only to Ilnd that it liuil been filled up and all other hotels in the city were full to over flowing. Moth the young ladies had to spend the night on the streets and when lust heard from were still in Hfriin. Tim following letter from Miss Floride Harris will be very Interest ing to every one living in Anderson county: Sorrento, Italy. Denr Home Folks: We linvo had the time of our lives recently. This has been a lovely trip down here?Is ono of the prettiest a person can lake We went from Milan to Venice. Our first view of Venice was in the rain, and disappointing. We took gondolas up to our hotel and it certainly was a novel experience. These tiny littlo canals winding in and out among these ancient old buildings. It took us about 45 mlnr utes to' get to our hotel. One, to love Venice; has to certainly see it by night tor in the day time it is horrid 1 Tl,c-3? canals are far from clean and you can see anything floating around on- the water from dead cata on up.' All the Italian cities we have-Been need a board of health and a ceneral clean-up day. As It was rain ig. we took a walk up to S?. Mark's square. We took the man of. our,'party along as it \ii not' saf? iiven lu.d^y. Umd'for us"to go out alone. ' There' aVe'"no 'horses hero and few streets.' Hie latter are very UKle over four teot'wjdc, and not marked and I got lost several times. Wo sew SL Mark;s church, art galler ies and DoycB* palace, the prison un derneath it. and saw the "Bridge of Sighs," the Doll Towoi and lace fac tories and other wonderful things to u Tho ahopn were the most fasci nating that wo have yet seen. The beads hero wore vory beautiful and wo all made some purchases for loved ou'-y at home. We took an ice at the famous Florian restaurant. . The square of St. Mark's deserves all that we have read of It. When we stood in the plaza in front of the church and fed the hundreds and thousands of pigeons that flocked all around ua it was an interesting sight. Wo took kodak pictures of each other with pigeons rostlpK oh our heads, shoulders r d arms. The rain ceased ?=.*!:! =?.-! fl:.v y wii'ni ennnnuiing that night on th< grand canal. It was In teresting to Just float along and see the queer old buildings brilliant lights reflected in the water. We passed floating barges wit* -oonle singing In; them and It wa3 ilirlHinn tn be in Venice at night listening1 to the Ital ian music. Next day.wo wont out by boat to Lido, one'of Europe's most fashionable seaside resorts. It Is on tlie> Adriatic sea. Of. dslto to uS on the other Side was T: leste in Austria Hungary. Wo en ' yed bathing In the sea1 very much .Lough the boach is shallow.'1 One l nd to;walk-somn dis tance in shallov- water before it got deep" enmigh 'iV enjoy- U.'?' We. passed two-or three Miutran 'men of war on our way out v. ..ich we looked at with great int?r?t t. We went*'.** to Florence. Stopped at a hc-tej made of an .old castle that was. onc? ( i?piea. by Bonaparte's sister, ft ' 'aaVftlovely place. We also visited the kings palace, even Werbt in Jo his faedvonfn. It was the most gor geous place I haw" ever seen.' The _.1 11.1. t.??? tlN.I 1).'.' ? S" ad our pictures taken on'top of It. ext. we went in pUtl'art' galerj!: ad joining tho king's palace, tit course we' saw pictures, by .Raphael and all tho famous Itallrtn artists. ' We' fcave seen Raphael's, Michael Angetos, Rub ens and others works so much now that we feel well acquainted with the VtVld fi*DU?m?m.'*. We ?ltyV vlalt'ed tj?> Ufflsrart gallery and we went: in so many cathedrals, churches, etc., there I cannot.spare time to Write you of thotn..-' Went through the Protestant cemetery there and saw Mrs; Brown ing';!' gr?.ve. " Took -a. long ride over Florence:, went beyond the limits and viewed Florence from a high hill and watched the-sun set , It was simply beaurtfxil. Thosv- Italian B?nscts are marvelous. '' "From ''Florence we' went to. Rome, the "city of memories/*^'* year here would not' be -long - enough to -boo all tter?SV' Our.

We are besieged by pearl nu.rf' cameo and post curd dealers and have to storm'at them to make them let ua alone. We visited St. Peter's, which is the largest church in the world. The corridors were as large as the Mcthodi-t church at home, the dome, tombs and statues in it were immeii.se. In it was the iigure of St. Peter, the tbos of which had been kissed.off by adoring people. Two of ub did the kissing act. Another place we Visited was the Hoithc of the Sacred Stairs. They wert?'the stairs Christ came down on from the house of Pilate and were moved here from Jerusalem. No one is allowed to walk on- their feet on these holy stairs, but huvc to go up and down on'their'knees and usu ally suy a prayer on each.step. While we were looking we saw ninny going up, down oh* their knees lost in pray er, jean wanted to go up and down but we would not wait on her. Oue afternoon we went to the Catacombs. That was the scariest, creepiest, ex perience v/o have yet had.' We each toolc a lighted candle, led by a monk with a caudle in his hand, and went single .file through/long narrow paths branching off in. all directions, form ing a perfect muze of corridors. Dif ferent stories or galleries lie one be low the other; small quantities of light and air come In the vertical shufts. . Miles of graves lie longwise in galleries. They arc enclosed by a dab with a symbol or inscription on them such as u dove or a, Hill anchor or a palm brunch. The, earliest date on any Is the year 111 A. d. It i3 certain car'y Christians in times of poroe?utictiir.vahic do.wn underneath the ground and took refuge in these catacombs in order > to celebrate in secret their religious ceremonies, and also served a:, ordinary burying places for early ChrK'tians, one burial ground'." -being- eoneC'-.d with an otbor uutll they extern', .'or long dis tances. If our candies hud gone out we* never-could have found cur way ouL_o_r If our guide had loft U3 it Viouiu li?V? u?Oii almost impossible to have found Our ! way out. Tho glare is so great in Rome we had to wear smoked glasses. The roads arc per fectly white, and one day after a drive on the Applun. Way... when wc got to the hotel #we looked like tramps?even our halr:wns gray with dust. Wc have to pay,fJQ ,cents fo? every all over bath wo take! 'Ona thing yie enjoy Is our shoca shineci free. We put them out side thO-door - and tho next morning they are there nice-and bright for us. Joke on jean. One morning they gave her a pair ot mans shoes Instead of hers. Que Catholic girl 1j in our party and she- got an ojdjence with the Pope. Mad permission to bring S>ur otheru with her aud Jeoii, as us ai, waiJlA iucky one. Had'a time at the hotel getting'tham' diked up .for the occasion, as tliay had to borrow black dresses and long black veils. You'r.hon?d have coen them when they started out. They only had the Pope in the room with them a short while aud lie blessed them ull and then went on into a private room with, the Cath olic gijcl. .... Jean will write you all about it In'.hcr letter. We visited the Vatican, the. art galleries adjoining it. The Sistine chapel..wan lovely and the work done there by Raphael was won derful. We drove out to the Forum with Mr. Pratt, tho head of our party ?he has been here on trips 17 times and gavo us a lecture on the Forum. He took'u* .up on'one. of the seven hills that Home in built cm and then to a tea 'room where we got cake and cream. That night an' Italian baud played for.several hours in front.of onr h?tel}?nn'd-w?'ss$'6ut on the bal cony in - front of out" bo*e' and enjoy- { ed ' it. Another interesting place was the Capnducan: church with a holy burying ground underneath the church of soil' that' came,,from the Holy land! 'The monks bodies'stay in this soil fcr'neertafti number of years and then their bone* t\re> taken up and a mnseurn'is'mndo^jf-tHfem.-They dec orate the walls in\ all kinds of de signs, and make br their skulls apd bones chandeliers, < racks, tabl??, etc. It was horrible to us,'but 'some doc tors who'wrre with:ns'thought It was lovely.
