Since the fates have led me forth,

quiet precincts of my childhood

years study, I took a degree. Al
ter that I went South where I
taught in a college and was princi-
pal of school. In this time I
spent one summer in North Michi-
gan and one Christmas under the
palms on the Atlantic shore of South
Carolina. There the ocean rim is
a low sandy beach and the tide
ebbed and flowed calmly as that of
a lake, 80 unlike the Titan.Hke
power of the surf of the Pacific, as
it pounds and dashes in fury against
the rocky CLIFF.

without evening opening my valise.
The next morning we a'e our Eng-
lish breakfast of bacon, eggs and
jam and set out from the "city of
masts" for zig-zag journey acr ss
England.
We first saw the old-walled town
of Chester. The walls are etill
standing in good state OF preser-
vation and are used as an elevated
sidewalk. The spike-like home
made nails still bristle upon the
edge Of the wall-hke rows of shsrp
edged teeth ready to clutch the ir-
vador, who, in this glorious era of
peace, comes not. On these wal 8,
in a tower that still stands, the un-
fortunate Charles I stood, and saw
Cromwell defeat his army, disas-
ter that caused him to lose his
head.
Our next stop was at Warwick
Castle. After paying the gate keep
er fee We entered the gate ard
took our way across the yard or
park that is inclosed within the
walls and entered the castle hall. 1t
was fall Of old armor, swords,
spears, shields and the cemple te
harness of the Knights of old, on
through galleries of rare old paint
ings, saloons furnished with rich
silks ard plushes, through the din
ing room, and finally we were con-
Quoted into the chamber filled with
the red plush furniture that was
once Queen Anne's, and in the room
that was always occupied by Queen
Victoria when she made her visits
to this castle. The king does n, t
visit the present Earl, because, it
is said, the Earl is jealous of hl-
beautiful wife.
The next most Interesting place
were the ruins of Kenelworth Cas-
tie; here, then, in the crumbled
walls, the wide-gapping archwayt,
and The lofty, vacantly staring,
sashless windows was the place
where the stormy lovers quarrel
between Elizabeth and her hearts
favorite, Earl of leicester, took
place. There the park, now po-
tato patch, where the queen discov-
cred the Earl's secret marriage with
| Amy Robsert, and yonder the very
room in the castle where the iufu-
rated queen took her lover to tack.
However. her memorable visit to
this castle ended her love affair
with her favorite; and the walls
that ,everberated with her wrath
now echoed the tickling cow bells
from the meadows below.
After ssort ride from this place
we reached Stratford-on-Avon,
the home of Shakespeare, and the
mecca of literary pilgrims. This is
a town of about 5000 inhabitants
! and is about as Shakespeare left il
