On another bright beautiful morning we visited the Sie- mens Museum, a haven for all varieties of electrical relics, inclyding obsolete radios, washing machines, stoves, X-ray machines and telegraphs. f One afternoon we lunched at the: world famous HofBirau Haus. Leaving Munich we drove to Regensbery, passing through Salzburg, Austria, and viewing Mozart, birth place. Accom- modations in Regensberg were unique, a seminary, which is very similar to a convent. An official reception by the Ober- Burger Meister started our day cheerfully. However, our day proceeded on a more sober note with a tour of prison and -torture rooms in the Rathaus! w and then Regensberg Univer?

In the evening we attended a program of plays put on by actors from the city. We drove back to sven burg, from where we flew (o Berlin. A tour of the Western sector included Hitler's Olym- pic Stadium, along the wall and a museum, depicting escapes. 'The Minister of German Affairs explained in detail, the existing political problem in Germany. We went via U-Bahn (subway) to East Berlin where we found spac- ious streets almost totally deserted. - A cruise. on the Berlin lakes revealed an inter- esting aspect of life on one side of white buoys, people, fun, freedom, while on the other side, nothing. Our last place to visit was Wurzberg where we toured the local duke's palace and an old castle. Accommodations for the latter part of the trip were youth hostels. Youth hostéls are places open to the members of the younger generation who are travelling around Euorpe. However, | did hear that there is one being set up in Toronto, at this time. It: usually costs about H50¢ a night. In order to stay in a youth hostel you have to be either travelling in a group, such as us or travelling on foot or motorbike. They do not accept people travelling in cars. The youth hostels of Germany proved lo be very hospitable to Canadians. Generally theaccommodations were good. Slaying .in youth hostels was an experience in itsell with as many as 22 people in one room. I found that it was very easy lo make friends and to | meet people from other countries besides Germany. Evén though it was quite enjoyable to stay in youlh hostels we enjoyed slaying with the families even more. This is the only way that you can really learn the language and become better acquainted several points fery PORT PERRY STAR - Thursday, Aug. 28,1969 -13 Epsom N Jean Jeffery I do not know the author hut this little poem packs a lot of sense: "If all that we say in a single day With never a word left out Were printed cach night in clear black and white, 'T would prove qucer reading no doubt. And then just suppose, e'er our eyes we could close We must read the whole record through, Then wouldn't we sigh, and wouldn't we try, A great deal less talking to do, And I more than hal think, that many a kink Would be smoother in life's tangled thread, If half that we say in a single' day, Were left forever unsaid. " Mrs. Stewart, Mrs. Lyons, Mrs. Walker and Mrs. Jef- visited the handicraft shop at the home of Mrs. V. Skerratt and enjoyed a very lovely visit with Mrs. Sker- ratt. There was such a large quantity of beautiful handi- crafted goods on display to choose from. It is time well spent to pay a visit to this little shop which is open on Saturday afternoons.
