 "U1 course, Pisa is more widely known through the great leaning tower.'" said Lieutenant Mai, than for any other reason, yet when the tourist visits Pisa one Of the most in- teresting things that he sees are the walls of the city, with their paintings still redolent of the brush and talent of Andrea Pisano. who painted them centuries ago; the cemetery, too, is very different because the earth beins brought from Palentrina in the long ago, bearing the superstition that is was holy earth and that sprinkied over the graves of the dead would per- form an especial mission. Also there is the 'battistere,' which is another object of interest to tourstsAthe bap- tismal fount, i'll other words. Situated between the Adriatic and Tirreno seas, Pisa represents most beautiful ap- pearance-with sienna not far away, where objects of interest and beauti- ful environment exist.
 Italy, like America, has her netro- politan centers," said Lieutenant Mai, where the opera. the theatre and the art galleries abound and l might men, ton that La Scala at Milan, San Carlo q Naples and the Costanzi at Rome are the centers of opera, where fame and fortune are either made or destroy ed in 9 night
 Asked of the popularity of the mol ernists in music-Puccini Leoncaveilo, Mascagni and the rest, Lieutenant Mai said:
 "They are all wonderful and very popular. but the master mind was Ver- ii of the long ago. he is the favorile composer of all the ages-wherevef his music is sung there is appreciation and warmth
 And your literati?' I questioned. "Of course D'Annunzio Is an idol not only in litera ture, but now as the poet airman' since the great world war"
 "D'Annunzio was born in Aruzzi, you know" said Lieutenant Nai,' but now on the Grand canal the gondoliers will point out a beautiful palace as the home of D'Annunzio. He is a modernist of the same calibre as Car ducci, Leopardi, Dante, Petrarca, Tas- so, Ariosto and the rest. Italys mu- sic, art and literature are very dear to the heart of the Italian and it mas been one of the many things that we have been thankful for during the war. that our great treasure troyes. our art galleries, cathedrals and georgeons theatre and opera centers have not been injured or molested by the scourge of war;"

as Italian masterpieces, in literature, music, art and sculpture, are well worth the reverence and the homag that is accorded them at home as wei! as abroad.
 Perhaps" said Lieutenant Mai, fin answer to my question in regarding his native city, Pisa, q can explain it's location by saying that it is in the narrow portion of the Italian penin- sular; you were told, I presume, at school that Italy is shaped like a boot? Well, Pisa is situated where the mar. row part of the boot begins. Pisa is only a short distance from Florence, where some of our greatest and most famous art galleries are located; es- pecially the gallery of the NHffiz, where thousands of the worlds master pieces from Giotta, who was a pupi. of Ciambu, Raffaello Sanzio, Tintoretta and the rest may be seen.

 IWll DAY of Workers, \. T., who or 0VS ganized the first canteen in the United States at Yonkers. and who was Instrumental in establishing recreation canteen service in New Orleans and many other southern cities, explains the real purpose of canteens when she says that canteens are not so much the places where soldiers and sailors can get food, as homes where they can get mother in fluence that they miss so much while in service.
 we try to take the place of mothers to these men in uniform" said Mrs Day, N"and nothing pleases me more than to haze the boys call me Mother as they nearly always do. Of course. it would never do to let the boys know that we are trying to mother thems and yet 1t was the fact that they were homesick for their own mothers that made them come to us. They would stay around for hours just watching us at work and feel per- fectly at home.
 ''The idea of the canteen started in this way" continued "Mother" Day: "Yon- kers is a patriotic town and the women there wanted to help the soldiers during the Mexican conflict, so we frequently went to the station where the boys were entraining for the border, to bring them food and other good things Then we had booths set up in Van Cortland1 park, in the neighborhood, aHd this de- vetoped canteen.
 At first we had an emergency can teen where we served as many as 2AtO soldiers in day. Afterward we opened a recreation canteen under the Red Cross. Then I came south and talk in New Orleans got the idea under way. After then I went to other large southern cities cities and made plea for the mother spirit in the women to exhibit itself in canteen work"
