MacLean, teacher printing from the TION IN SLEEPING CARS ADDITIONAL | When the "Review" asked me to K ‘ write an article on our trip in the Porter British Isles last summer, I was apâ€" n. Jr.‘ palled at the thought; for, we saw i Mcâ€" so many interesting things that it IIâ€"L. was difficult to know what and what James not to mention. But I have decided, e and finally, to tell about our last ten Hopâ€" days in England, because we had Noble. | sufficient leisure to absorb something I1â€"G.|of the atmosphere of that district, Mur-,and yet saw as much of architecturâ€" Donâ€" @l, historical and literary interest ‘wamâ€" } and of natural beauty as in any other â€"Lois similar period of the summer. whar; After a very busy week in London ald . "in which time we crowded as much [owâ€" Sightâ€"seeing as possible, we left for Vio. Devon on August 10. Our first stop | was at Winchester where we had her.| lunch in a teaâ€"room, which at one time had been part of a _ Norman Palace built by William the Conâ€" lac. | queror in 1067. The old fireplace ard and a great deal of the original wood Cc. ’are still in existence, but we ate a p.| very modern lunch. Diagonally beâ€" ssie ; hind this interesting teaâ€"room â€" is iver| Wirchester Cathedral, one of the R.'most famous in the world architecâ€" nce|turally, and one of the most famous _ in England historically. There was a lch,‘church on this site in the days of the old Saxon saint, Swinthun, and er. the present cathedral which is dediâ€" cated to his memory has attracted pilgrims for centuries, of whom the _ | hollowed bricks of the original floor ac £ 5 s ny bear witness. There is an interestâ€" ald ing legend connected with the death j;, |Of this sairt who wished to be burâ€" Sif. ied in the churchyard, but whom his _ j, | followers wished to bury within the »en|ChurCh' On the day of the funeral it rained so steadily that the body of . ler,the saint couldn‘t be buried outside, according to his wishes, and the | p |body had to be returned to the _ kâ€" church. This occurred every day unâ€" f h: til forty days had passed, giving | “_' rise to the common belief that if it ] “f rains on St. _ Swinthun‘s Day, i6 . -r; will rain every day for forty days. ~mich still exists in part today. Among the many interesting historâ€" ical things to be noted in the cathâ€" edral are the grave of Jane Austen, a black _ marble baptismal _ font which is 850 years old, some â€" fifâ€" teenth century stained glass, _ the throne chair which was used . by Queen Mary at her marriage to King Philip of Spain in this church, and the grave of Izaak Walton who lived and fished at Winchester, and in whose memory is given by fishermen of many lands a beautiful window, When the Norman‘s conquered Engâ€" land, they found that Winchester was | the capital of the country, and that the English Kings had been crownâ€" ed and buried in its church. Howâ€" lever, William I, despising the crude | workmanship and the poor architecâ€" ture of the Saxons, determined â€" to |have a new â€"church erected which would be sufficiently splendid for the worship of God. But the succeeding |generations wanted to improve upon his work, so that now the only traces of Norman architecture are to be seen in the transepts. (Most of the cathedrals are cruciform in shape, the lower part of the cross known as the nave the upper part _ the choir, and the arms the transepts.) As a result of such labours, Winâ€" chester cathedral is the second longâ€" est in Eurcpe, its nave is the longest its transepts the finest, the carving on the altar rail has no rival, hayâ€" ing been carved by Grinling Gibâ€" bons, the world‘s most renowned wood carver. Gazing up at the lofty stone roof with its fanwork tracery, of which each fan could hold a hundred peoâ€" ple, we marvelled aloud how a buildâ€" ing of such large proportions could have been built without the aid of _ modern machinery. _ Our interesting guide then explained _ that as the 'walls were built the interior was filled with gravel and earth, and a sloping mound of earth was built up outside the wall so that the heavy blocks of stone could be raised on an incline. So many trees were used to aid in this work that all the forests â€" for many miles were badly depleted. . This disturbed _ William I so much 4 that he ordered all villages and â€" farms to be destroyed in the vicinity . and a new forest to be planted, givâ€" . ing rise to the name "New Forest", which still exists in part today P MRS.

The day being Sunâ€" day, no one was in sight; so we climbed the wall as best we could, and had a peep over the top into the central _ columned bath chamber, from which the _ smaller chambers open. We were told that the lead piping installed by the Romans rivâ€" als that of modern plumbers. | Another sight of interest in Bath , is the Pulteney Bridge, with shopns dow, and on one of the ladders are figures ascending to the throne _ of God, while on the other ladder the figures are those falling from grace. A few steps from the Abbey, â€" are the old Roman baths erected about 54 A.D. With the coming of the Saxons, the city was destroyed, and these wonderful relics of the Roman period remained covered until 1882. Unfortunately for us, the baths are closed in the evening, and we were After dinner we set out to explore as much of the city as we could. One of the first places we visited was the Abbey. The sculpture on the West Front of this magnificent buildâ€" ing is very unusual; a ladder is carved on each side of the large winâ€" Our final destination for the day was Bath, which we approached in the early evening, and it was a sight never to be forgotten. The city is situated in a valley, and the houses, all of which are built in the Georgâ€" ian style, rise in tiers up the sides of the surrounding hills, giving the city an Italian appearance. Leaving this ancient spot, we had: a beautiful drive through the Wiltâ€"| shire Hills. On the slope of the hills | the ground had been removed exposâ€" | ing the chalk formation beneath. Thef turf had been cut away in the shape ‘ of a horse, and this white horse has become a wellâ€"known landmark. We\ were told by a _ lady in our party who had climbed up the side of that particular hill, that a party of peoâ€" ple could hold a picnic on the eye of the horse. | a horseshoe, the first consisting . of five very large stones, bearing imâ€" posts. The circle and horseshoe of large stones are made from â€" stones which were brought from _ South Wales, which shows the importance of this place in the eyes of those primitive people. Some of the stones are missing and many have fallen, but it is easy to visualize what this structure was like originally. There are four stones which bear no tracâ€" es of dressing and trimming, and about which I should like to tell.‘ The Hele Stone which stands outâ€" side the circle marks the rising of 1 the sun on the Summer Solstice, and for that reason many schol&rsl believe that Stonehenge was used for worshipping the sun. This tact? also helps to determine the date| when the structure was built. Lyingi within the circular earthwork are | two smaller stones; one marks the rising of the sun on the Winter Sol-l stice, and the other its setting on the Summer Solstice. _ ‘The third| prostrate stone is known as the} Slaughtering Stone, but we do not | know whether it was used for that: purpose or not. | a cirecle of smaller stones, ma{:lng three outer circular forms. Inside of these are two others, shaped like Leaving this city, we drove over Salisbury Plain, the term "plain" being somewhat misleading, for the surface of this downland is anything but even. We passed Old Sarum, where the remains of an old Roman fort may be seen as terraced mounds today. But we hurried on, because something of even greater antiquity awaited us, a few miles awayâ€" Stonehenge . Of all the amazing things we saw this summer, to me this was one of the most astonishâ€" ing. So many people believe, as I, had always done, that this was an‘ ancient Druid place of worship. It may have been used by the Druids,| but it was built many centuries beâ€"| fore by the Stone Age of Men, (who had no knowledge of metals, and used only stone tools,) in approximâ€" ately 2000 B.C., probably for a temâ€" ple of worship. An avenue bounded by earthworks approaching the Hele Stone, enters a circular earthwork‘ enclosure irside of which stands the remnant of a circle of upright stones bearing imposts, and within this is in Sunny Devon The next city to be visited informâ€" ed us of its approach when we were yet many miles away; for, Salisâ€" bury has the loftiest spire in Engâ€" land, and by commonâ€"consent, . the most beautiful in the world. And we were not disappointed when we reachâ€" ed the cathedral. | It is situated in the midst of spacious grounds, with the River Avon on one side. The proportions of the structure are so harmonious as to be perfect. Unlike many cathedrals which were built or added to in different architectural periods, Salisbury was completed in one generation. depicting fishing scenes of scripture sage. ‘Mr D.

In deciding upon this reduction, the Commission has kept in mind that it will shortly have to incur major expenditures to obtain an additional supply of power for the system and to increase the voltage of the transmission lines and stations connecting the generating plants of the Severn River with the lines in thel western part of the system to meet, the growing demands thereof. Bydro Rates To Muanicipalities Reduced a moat which is still filled with water, and a bastioned wall. In the moat are swans which have been trained for generations to pull a cord at the drawbridge every â€" day at noon for their lunch. Needless to say, this ig the most popular hour at Wells for the tourists, unless they have spoilt their own fun by feedâ€" ing the swans, so that they are not hungry at the appointed time. From Wells, we drove to the Chedâ€" dar Gorge to see the stalactited and stalagmited formations in the caves which extend more than a mile unâ€" derground. The caves were electricâ€" ally lighted, enabling one to enjoy: the beautiful colour effects. Due; to the iron in the limestone surâ€" rounding the caves, red was the pre-1 dominant colour. There are beautiful porches and gateways which lead from the cathâ€" edral to the other butldings . The Bishop‘s _ Palace is surrounded by To the tourist, one of the most inâ€" teresting things to be seen in the cathedral is the clock, which dates back to the year 1392. The clock is set in a square frame, in the corners of which are angels holding the Four Winds. The outer circle of the clock is divided into the twenty four hours of the day, and a large gilt star to represent the sun, points to the hour. The second circle shows the minutes, with a small star as pointâ€" er. A third circle gives the day of the month; and a crescent with a pointer shows the moon‘s age. Above the clock is a tower, around which knights on horseback revolve in opâ€" posite directions every hour, represâ€" enting a tournament,. A figure known as Jack Blandefer, seated higher up, strikes with its heels against bells for the quarter hours, and with a hammer the number of the hour. Also there are two knights in armour of the fifteenth century, who strike with battleaxes the quarterâ€"hours . pay ?" We reached Wells, the _ following morning, before church time, so that we should have an opportunity to look around before the service began. As we gazed at the finest group of ecclesiastical buildings in Europe,. the bells were chiming beautifully.
