Wadsworth, superintendent OF
nurses at the Manila hospital, she
slipped away from the beaten paths
of travel and saw places and OBJ
served customs she had never read
about in books"
She travelled through some Of the
countries and cities about twenty
one years ago on her first vacation.
II particularly enjoyed comparing
the civilizations of the two periods,
Or. Parrish said as she sat in her
living room, filled with odds and
ends" she brought back with her.
I'D been in Egypt twice before,
but I'd never visited an oasis. The
one we visited is irrigated by water
from the canal BahryuSo, supposed
ly built by Joseph when Pharaoh
asked him to do something out
standing" she explained.
Radio Bewilders Egyptians
In Cairo she witnessed a crowd
listening to it's first radio program.
She saw old men shaking their
heads in bewilderment as the wieEd
music from distant places came
from the radio.
Egypt is discarding most of the
old that is not good, but is keeping
the delightful customs that give it
such glamor," DR.. Parrish explained.
During three weeks in Jerusalem,
she wandered through Bethlehem
and other Biblical places. She
brought a bottle of water from the
sea Of Gallilee. Patricia Parrish,
baby daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Frank Parrish of New York, will be
baptized with this water. Frank
Parrish is DR.. Parrish's nephew.
THE old walled Jerusalem is not
being modernized in physical form,
but since my visit twenty-one years
ago, I noted great improvement in
social and educational life. I saw
no yelled women in Turkey; women
are free now and enter business just
as we do" DR.. Parrish pointed out.
Prayer Call Less Stringent
In Damascus, Oldest city in the
world. she looked forward to see
ing people stopping to pray when
they heard the muezzin call from
the turrets. Il was disappointed
No one kneeled to pray, and I
learned that while occupied, they
are excused from praying"
One Of the happieSt places in the
world to travel is Italy, DR.. Parrish
thinks. Il was there as they were
celebrating the tenth anniversary of
FaSciSm under MusSolini. I've never
been in such a clean, healthy, thrift
ty, orderly and safe country"
She brought home a stone erupt-
ed from Mt. VeSuvius as salmon
colored clouds foated through its
white smoke. I'VE crouched close
to each other on a windy, snowy
day in June in fright and cold as
We saw VeSuvius Splashing the
mountain side with its lava"
Jewish Movement Opposed
THE Arabs are resentful of the
Jewish migration to Jerusalem from
Germany because Of Hitler'S Danish
ment. Jerusalem has ordered its
life and has no room for the refu-
gees" she explained. Everywhere
in Germany. there are banners wav-
ing, bands playing and people
marching and singing in praise of
the Nazi. Tiny children are dressed
in brown uniforms. On the date of
the treaty Of Versailles, flags were
at half staff"
