Here's what lie has to say: "We visited the,.plaiietariuni id found it very easy to-understand wvhat the lecturer said, for we knew aIllihe was going to say- beforchand. They also gave a movie on mounitain if e, although what earthly (or heavenly) connection it bad with astroilomy I couldn't see; it aýppears, that the,,plattarium is also a movie bouse. We took the trip.té Pots- dam and hiad a good guide. We visited the. Kaiser's palace, and Sans Souci, %valked througlh the gardens. and hiad dinner ini a good, but expelse restaui- rant and 'coffee' consisting of cocoâ at. a wayside inn." The boys took in an opera and attend- cd quantities of inuseums. in which, Paul did prelimninary work for bis two mnonths. at Freiburg. Their visit to the oh- servatory was especially interesting.

"In the museum a guide taok us and two other visitors around, explaining and working the inodels, aft- er which hie took us up to sec the tele- scope.
