Digging Under
An Old Church

Early in the year 1915 some men
found that under Norman church
in Canterbury, England, were the
remains of another church built
long ago. The church that is now
there was built by two abbots land
abbots were something like our
ministers are now called Scotland
and Wido in the years between
1910 and 1901.
Under the floor OF this church
the men who were digging grown
ups call it "excavating") found the
foundations of stone building that
once had eight sides. This was
built by another abbot called Wul
fric before 1869. But that was not
all. This seems to have been a
very nice place to build, because
near this church of Wulfric, the
excavators found the walls Of an
old chapel which was built by old
King Ethelbert way back in the
sixth century. (Now perhaps you
have never heard of Ethelbert, but
just wait till you take English his
tory. From the way history books
talk about him, he must have been
quite an important king in England,
some fourteen hundred years ago
He wasn't king of England either,
he was just king OF Kent, little

built some Of these walls about the
year sos, and can you guess how
thick they are? They are q inch
es thick and are made of old Ro-
man tiles. Here they have found
some tombs of some of the good
old abbots that lived long, long ago
OF couse they expect to do more
digging now that the war is over,
and try to find out just how many
old buildings can be found, and
what kind of buildings they were.
The man who is especially inter-
ested in this work, and who has
charge of it is very interesting
man with a very long name, Sir
William st. John Hope. Perhaps
he was named that because he was
always "hoping" to find some old
ruins beneath all of the buildings
he could tear up, but perhaps he
was not Names are queer things.
1t is thought that sum of 5000
(pOunds) or about $4,000 will be
needed to finish the work under
this church in Canterbury.

Secretary Glass
Awards Medals
To Boy Scouts
Secretary Of the Treasury, Carter
Glass, Presents Medals for
the Victory Loan.

The esteem in which Secretary
of the Treasury Glass holds the
Boy Scout Organization is indi-
Gated in the following extract from
an address made by him at the
mass meeting where over four
hundred Victory Loan medals and
bars were presented to Boy Scouts
of Washington, d. c., as a recogni-
ton for the work which they did
in connection with the last loan.
Secretary Glass in his opening
remarks indicated his pleasure at
being asked to take part in the
meeting, saying that he considered
it a distinct compliment. The fol-
lowing is what he says concerning
the great organization of Boy
Scouts:
while | do not know great
deal about the Boy Scouts, | DO
know one thing-that it is an instl-
tuition which is antagonisuc TO
nothing that is good, and hostile to
everything that is bad, and 1t IS an
honor for any man, whatever his
distinction in life, to come and
greet an association of that sort.
"If the Boy Scouts of America
had done nothing more than they
did in the five Liberty Loan cam
paigns, they would have earned dis
tinction enough to entitle them to
the respect and affection of the
American people. And, as Secre-
tary of the Treasury of the United
States, | want tonight to give at
testation to the great patriotism
manifested by the Boy Scouts.
want to personally thank them for
the splendid service they rendered
their country and for the effective
way in which they aided the Treas
ury Department in putting over
this Loan"

HE had not made the Trip nlmSeiI
for six years, as he had been serv-

French army.
An AIpenstock a Necessity
I'VE wore warm clothing, and
heavy hob-nailed shoes, and each
one carried a pack. In this pack
were gloves, knitted helmet, extra
pair wooden socks, dark glasses
(the glistening snow is hard on the
eyes), grease ito keep our faces
from drying up under the terrible
burn of the sun), camera. sweater
and raincoat. Each one had an
Alpenstock, too, that looks some
thing like small pick, made OF
straight-grained wood and having
steel spike on the end. One end
of the spike is blunt and one is
sharp. This is used for cutting
steps in the ice sometimes, and for
support all the time. Together we
carried, too, about thirty feet OF
rope (Which was used to tie US to-
gether when we came to places
that were harder to climb. 3 loaves
of French bread leach one. two
feet long,, a pork roast, steak, very
strong tea, sweet chocolate, cheese,
oranges, confiture (or JAM, pota-
toes, some wine for the guide and
some stronger wine to be used in
case of accident.
Used Ropes over Deep Crevices
while we were going through
the timber we picked up wood to
make our fire at the halfway house.
By ten o'clock we had left the tim
Der, and were climbing over big
snOWdriftS.
I'VE climbed over two glaciers
(great frozen fields piled high with
ice that moved few feet a year,
named Glacier des Blossoms and
Glacier du Taconnez. The cross
ing from the first to the second was
quite difficult because we went
over deep "crevasses" as the
French call them. 1t was here that
we tied ourselves together with the
rope for the first time and used it
all the time after that.
"BiIed" Tea at the Halfway House
About eleven thirty that morn
ing we came to the halfway house,
named Les Grands Mulets (Which
means, in English, The Big MulesO,
well built, large house, knocked
little lopsided by the snow of
many years.
Here the guide made fire and
cooked us a dandy meal, and then
we went to bed. 1t was so cold
that every bit of water we drank,
was snow which had been melted
over the fire. At six o'clock in the

You know what fun it is to climb
a steep hillside! One has to climb
carefully to keep from slipping but
it's great sport to see how steep a
bank you can climb without falling.
Just as you Juniors enjoy climb
ing high and steep banks, so the
grownups have great fun climbing
mountains. Those who have climb
ed mountains, either in the United
States or in other countries, say
it is a wonderful experience. 1t
is so beautiful and so interesting,
and it is made more interesting
by the skill it takes to keep ones
footing, sometimes in very narrow
places.
One of the highest mountain
peaks in the world, and the highest
in Europe, is Mont Blanc, which
is the French name for White
Mountain, and was given to this
peak because it is always covered
with snow. 1t is one of the great
group of mountains called The
Alps, and is about three miles high.
First Climbed in 1886
1t was in the year 1886 that some
one climbed this mountain for the
first time. Since then there are
about three hundred people that
climb to it's top during the year
This last year, however, probably
a thousand have climbed it, as
there were many soldiers of the al
lied armies that went there on
leave" Many American soldiers
and Red Cross men are among the
number who did it.
Guide Was "BIue Devil"
A Richmond boy who prefers that
his name should not be in this
story, is one of the lucky ones who
climbed this White Mountain" He
has told his story of the trip up
Mont Blanc so that you Juniors will
know how it feels to climb such a
high mountain, covered with snow
and ice, and will want to go there
sometime and try it yourself.
I'VE started" he said, about
five o'clock in the morning from
the little French village named
Chamonix land you do not pro-
nounce the x when you say it) that
lies at the foot of Mont Blanc. 1t
was the morning of Friday, June 90,
1919, and the climb we were to
make, was to be the twenty-second
trip up the mountain that year.
Carter, pal of mine was with
me, and guide. Everyone has to
have guides. No one ever climbs
without one, and they are valuable
too. We paid ours 120 Francs for
his services, which is about $40 in
these war days, and l would not
do what he does for a thousand.
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1919-08-16

From this peak we could have
slid down into three different coun-
tries, France, Italy, and Switzer-
land, but we preferred to climb
down into France as 1t was the
safest way. (To be real truthful
though, we did do quite little slip
ping before we again arrived at
Chamonix). We could see Mount
Rosa, high peak of the Alps
mountains in Italy, and on clearer
mornings than this 21st of June,
one could see, so the guide told
us, the beautiful Lake Geneva Of
Switzerland many miles away.
Escaped Mountain Sickness
Climbing down the mountain
was harder in some ways than the
trip up, though it was easier to
breathe. l felt as if l were putting
my feet out In front of me not
knowing where they were going to
light, and sometimes l wondered
if they would really light at all.
This uncertain feeling sometimes
makes climbers sick, with what the
natives call mountain sickness" or
lie Nal du Mont"-just as the roll
ing of the sea gives many people
sea sickness. l had none Of this,
which suited me all right.
"As far as the observatory the
way down was very steep and very
hard to climb, and we went very
slowly. We would go ahead while
the guide braced himself with the
rope and stock. and then as We
braced ourselves, he would come
down. Often the snow was up to
our hips.
by noon that Saturday we ar
rived again at the halfway house,
and ate another meal, picked up
the things we had left there and
started down..
when we were fairly low down,
we had real fun sliding, and this
time we meant to do it. The guide
showed us how. Bending down,
and bracing ourselves on our stocks
1--WE were not tied together now).
we slid over the icy slope, some
times going down rs feet at time.
Watched Through Telescopes
I'VE arrived in Chamonix at five
thirty Saturday afternoon, and
found that people all over the town
had watched our climb. Teles-
copes are placed in many places,
and people are always interested
in watching the climbing.
THE next morning we left Cha
monk, proud that we had climbed
to the top of the highest mountain
in Europe, and still little awed
; by the wonderful beauty of those
great Alpine mountains.

LOCAL BOY DESCRIBES THRILLING TRIP TO TOP OF
MONT BLANC, HIGHEST MOUNTAIN IN EUROPE

afternoon, we got up. ate another
meal and fixed the packs that we
were to carry to the top of the
mountain. We left all but the ne
cessary things at the halfway
house to be picked up again on our
way down. We packed up choco-
late, oranges. bread and tea to take
with US. The tea was made strong
to give US strength, in fact, it had
been boiled for an hour and half
The guide strapped on an extra pair
of spikes over his hob-nailed shoes.
From here as we looked down, we
could see the village of Chamonix
that we had left that morning. 1t
was so very beautiful with its
bright lights twinkling up at us
through the moonlight.
Wiegled Toes to Prevent Freezing
I'VE went to bed again and slept
until II a. M, when we got up, ate
another meal and started off again,
at five minutes after twelve in the
early morning, for the last lap. We
were roped together. | was in the
middle The guide carried candle
! lantern. All around us we could
hear the avalanches falling, those
great, great big balls of snow that
fall form smaller peaks as the snow
melts.
Soon after this we saw a glori-
GUS sunrise, sight | never shall
| forget 1t was so beautiful.
by now it was so cold that we
had to keep twitching our faces,
and wiggling our fingers and toes
to keep them from freezing.
Thin Air Made Hard Climbing
by five o'clock in the morning
we came to the little observatory
which is near the top of the noun
tain. From here ON the climb was
very steep and the air was thin,
which made it hard for us to breath
! and made us feel weak. Every lit
tie bit we had to lie down in the
snow for a very short time and
rest.
1.-The guide cutsteps In the ice
with his stock, and climbed up
while we braced ourselves and gave
him more rope Then he would
brace himself and we would climb.
The last quarter mile we climbed
was a very steep and very narrow
path.
On tho Top at Last
I'VE reached the top Of Mont
Blanc at ten minutes after seven,
in the morning, and stayed there
twenty minutes, looking out over
the miles and mites of mountains
and valleys that we could see from
there, and taking a few pictures
