Home Again After
A Delightful Trip

Editor Kennebec Journal
These succeeding lines are recol-
lections of our journey from Cali
fornia to New England. What is
written is not based upon notes
made as one travels or completes the
days journey, but is the impress of
events and sights struck deeply
enough upon the mental ground of
retention as to be revivified by the
process of recollection.
After an enjoyable sojourn at
Foster Memorial Park we commenced
the remainder of our tour, OF the
Pacific coast to Los Angeles. We
halted in Ventura while repairs were
made upon the car, and finding
therein an opportunity to visit the
peculiarly attractive court house, the
gift of leading citizen OF the city.
After riding some thirty miles we
accepted the hospitality of a large
sign board and camped for the night
near the bend Of the road on the

The tomb of Frances unknown SOL
dier beneath the Arc de Triomphe
will become a more impressive sym
Dol of sacrifice if the proposal to keep
a fame under the arch burning day

sands Sundays and holidays.
In this connection it has been
pointed out that time has effaced
many memories connected with the
war. 1t is rare thin to see wal
