SPRING TEMPER

Although Spring is just around
the corner and the earmuffs
have come off. the March winds
are still as brisk as a hunter S
horn. Somehow, maybe sooner
than we expect, the flowers will
be handy and beautiful every
where.
Easter holidays are quiet Holt

Conowingo Dam on the Susque-
hanna River. After crossing the
famous boundary established by
Charles Mason and jeremiah Dixon
in 1853, our road led through the
rolling hills of BrandyWine Battle
field and Valley Forge. We crossed
the Delaware River from Pennsyl-
vania to New Jersey and sped along
the Pulaski Highway, named after
the famous Polish cavalry officer
who fought so valiantly for us in
the Revolutionary War. This boule-
ward led us into the Holland Tunnel,
under the Hudson River, from
which we rocketed into New York
That evening, we saw the famous
lights of Broadway and a fine show
at Radio City Music Hall.
The next morning we drove along
the Hudson River, on Riverside
Drive, passing the Queen Elizabeth
in dock. We entered series OF
beautiful parkways from New York
across Connecticut to Rhode Island
upon which we paid toll every few
miles-Which reminds me of the
story of the man who cut off the
dogs tail little bit at time SO
it would not hurt so much.
We began passing through old
New England towns with white
churches and village training
greens. New Haven, home Of Yale
University, was scanned with in
terest. as was New London, with its
submarine base and Coast Guard
Academy. The road led through
the little town of Guilford, where
stands the oldest stone house in
Connecticut, built in 1889.
We spent the night at Wareham
Mass. in a quaint hotel $50 years
old. The fire escape" in the room
was heavy knotted rope by which
one could swing through the Win
dow and reach the ground.
The next morning. Sunday, we
drove along the canal toward Plym-
outh, New England's first settle
ment. Here we attended services in
the Fifth Meeting House OF the first
church established at Plymouth.
In Boston we had typical New
England seafood dinner, and then
drove around the city. Points OF in
terest were the Old State House
built in 1713, capital of Massachu-
setts until 1898; Christ Church
where signal lanterns displayed In

on his famous midnight ride; Fame

Commons, the present State House
and the Bunker Hill Monument on
