of the Annunciation." We enter
ed through an arch built by the
Byzantines, then the arch built
by the Romans, and into court
yard where remains of each era
are visible. We were most for
tunate in having the head Father
of the church, take us through
the churches. Mr.. Miles had
been there twice, but learned
much he hadn't known before.
The Church of the Annunciation
was first built in 352 by the
Byzantines. It is built directly
over the cave in which the Virgin
Mary lived when Gabriel visited
her and told her that she was
to be the mother of Jesus. The
byzantine church was destroyed
and about 100 AID, the Crusad-
ers erected another church in
the same spot. st. Francis visited
Nazareth in 1877 and in 1850 the
iFranciscans settled there and
have tenaciously held to the
place through long centuries of
persecution.
Lovely Churches
| The church auditorium is like
many other lovely Catholic
churches. From it, you descend a
staircase and find yourself Gin a
kind of veStibule with two affairs.
This is the site of the house of
the Virgin. 1t his called the
| Chapel of the Angel. Descending
two steps, you reach the grotto
of the Annunciation entirely cut
out of the rock.
/ 1t is divided into two compart-
ments. Two columns are here,
placed in the 4th century to
strengthen the roof. One, half
buried in the masonry of a pillar
is called the Column of the
Angel, the other, broken, is called
the Column of the Virgin. A gate
opens on the right to the second
compartment, from which a
staircase, cut in the rock in 1924
leads to the sacristy, or small
chamber for sacred utensils
There are also remains of tomb
thought now to be that of Joseph
Count of Tiberias, not the tomb
of st. Joseph, as originally sup
posed.

There is spring where goat
herders, sheep-herders and shep-
herdesses water their animals.
One day we We're fortunate in
getting pictures of several herds,
some at the spring and some
waiting their turn.
Tivon is the village on top the
last of Galilean hills, just across
valley from the Carmel range.
1t is directly opposite the spot
on the Carmel hills where Elijah,
the prophet, and the 40 prophets
of Baal offered sacrifices and
Elijah was proved to have the
all-powerful God. According to
history, thereupon, the 40 pro-
phetS of Baal were destroyed.
There is a monument there, but
we have not been up to it as yet.
Outskirts of Nazareth
From Tivon. to Nazareth, the
road is winding and hilly. Viii
lagos abound in the fertile valley
below. One "kibbutz" is laid out
like wheel, with the shops in
the center, then the houses, and
then the farm lands at the outer
ends of the spokes. 1t is clearly
visible from the hills.
As we entered the outskirts OF
Nazareth, we stopped to take
some pictures. The Arab chill

children, with onions and cloth

watching us.
On the road into the city we
pass a well where the bare feet
of women, through the years
have worn paths in the stones.
The girls and women still walk
to the well, with their earthen
jars on their heads. At very
early age the girls start learning
to balance things on their heads.
At an Arab village, Bill saw one
little girl balancin two cucum-
bers. She proudly walked past

she could do.

The entrance to the synagogue is
off the Arab market place, which
we visited next.

The market place is most un-
usual. You feel as if you were
transported into the past. The
width is from 6 to 3 feet between

which is a gutter about 3 inches

either side. Shops are really
stalls. Most have only the front
opening. AS you proceed up the
hill, the way becomes narrower
and narrower with less and less
sunlight getting through.
There are shops of all kinds

At $50, Tuesday morning,
June II, 1852, Bill, Freda and
the girls, left Nathanya for Naza-
reth. We stopped in Tivon, a
suburb of Haifa, and picked up
our FAC friends, the Miles. On
the way to Tivon, we travel along
the Carmel Mts., in wadi, or
valley. The sights include an
Arab village, Individual Arab
homes, many Jewish villages.
More often than not, the tiny
children wear skirts and that is
all-the shoulders must be pro-
tected from the sun. One of the
cutest things we see is loaded
mother donkey with baby dom
key following. Baby isn't fasten-
ed, he just trails along. When we
see an Arab man and woman, the
man is riding and the woman
walking behind. However, once
in awhile the woman walks
ahead. The natives tell us that
the reason for that is, that dur
ing the War of Liberation, the
men wanted to be protected, SO
he sent the woman first | ex-
pect it is literally true.
On our trip to Tivon, we also
see bedouins. Their tents are

church is very beautiful. The two
columns at the front of the
church auditorium are columns
from the original church. From
the auditorium, you descend to
the home of Mary, Joseph and
Jesus. 1t was to this home that
Jesus came from Egypt when he
was 3 years old, and where he
lived for q years. There is no
describing the overwhelming
sense of communion with God,
one feels as he walks in Jesus
home. 1t is almost more than
one can stand. Perhaps, as l am
told, after several visits you
become more objective. l doubt
that ! shall find that so.
1000 Years Old

stood the Franciscan priest to
say that the home of the Holy
Family was 1000 years old, hav-
ing been built 1000 years before
the birth of Christ. 1t is hewn
out of solid rock. The living
quarters, which you see, are
below, and the carpenter shop
was above. There was deep
well, which contained water
when the Holy Family lived
there, but is now dry. There is
also deep hole, in which they
kept food. Several smaller holes
also held food, and above them
are bars over which the ropes
were drawn to raise and lower
food into them. You cannot help
but marvel that a home could
have been hewn from solid rock.
Too, how, in later centuries, the
Byzantines and Crusaders carved,
and put in place the tons and tons
of columns and building blocks
poses a monumental problem to
the average mind.

By the Associated Press

ELIZABETH. N. j., April IA
Smooth bandits robbed the Ell
mora Branch of the Union Coun-
ty Trust Co. of $15.750 in cash
today in a commuter crowded
area.
Scores of uniformed police and
detectives converged on the bank
"a block from the bustling Jer-
sey Central Railroad station
moments after the holdup, but
found no trace of the bandits.
A bank official, Harold E. Man
vel, was slugged by one of the
gunmen. He was taken to Eliza
beth General Hospital for treat
ment of bad scalp wound.
Detective Capt. August F. Win
kelmann gave newsmen this ver-
sion of the holdup:
The pair were waiting inside
the building when employees and
early customers arrived for the
$3.50 am. opening.
The pair, both apparently
armed with revolvers and one of
them wearing a paper bag mask,
herded seven employees and GUS
toners into a rear room.
Mr.. Marvel was forced at gun
point to open safes within the
main vault.
The bandits scooped up $15,750,
slugged Mr.. Marvel over the head
with the butt of a gun and fled
through the rear door.
