At sunrise a commotion on the deck just above my stateroom caused me to look out ot the porthole. I saw several other people also peering out, but paid no further attention. At breakfast l was told that a man had jumped overboard and was never seen again, though the ship circled the spot for some time. It proved to be a Hindu from the East Indies. He was a member of the British Navy who had been sick and was on a furlough for recuperation and he had been drinking heavily for some time. No one knows the cause. Some suggested a disturbed mind and a depressed soul had hidden the light of hope, w:hich condition, aggravated by the raging storm, may have created a desire to hide himself in the bos om of the deep. While few knew him, still there seemed to have been a pall of sorrow over everyone that a human soul should reach the point of willing ness to shut itself off from the light of the world. By the middle of the forenoon the storm clouds be gan to pass away and at noon the sky was blue and the sun was bright and the sea had reached a quiet state. We were soon in the Straits of Messina, sail ing between the two cities of Messina, Sicily, and Reg gio di Calabria, on the boot toe of Italy. Two Ital ian cruisers were steaming around in these waters. Soon we passed in sight of the famous Mount Etna, a volcano that is now cool and inactive. In former times it was very active. It is said that when \ e suvius is cool. Etna is hot. At 6 o clock we passed Stromboli, which was sending forth clouds of brown ish smoke. By dark we were very near it, apparently less than a mile, and we could distinctly see it dis play its wonderful fireworks. It seemed to be a con stant flame and at short intervals it apparently belched forth great streaks of fire. It was a quiet day of friendly association aboard ship with much scenic beauty to behold. Sunday, Sept. 22, 1935. We steamed into the Bay of Naples at 6 a. m., and tied up to a cement dock. The appearance of every thing was that of a busy place. The harbor was full of ships, among them four large submarines and a half dozen destroyers and one or more battleships. * At 8 o'clock we went ashore for sight-seeing. To our east about 6 miles away we could plainly see \ e suvius with its clouds of smoke rising high into the heavens. We were driven to the electric-car yards, and found men working enlarging the yards and lay ing new tracks. We boarded a car for Pompeii. It was a fast express for the 14-mile trip, and we passed through a fine section. The road on both sides is lined with vines, fruit trees and vegetable gardens. There seems not to be a foot of idle land anywhere, leading one to think that whatever may happen to Italy her people will not starve. Getting out 6 miles, we found ourselves exactly be tween Vesuvius and Capri, two of the most historical places of Italy. The Isle of Capri is rich in history and romance. It contains 6 square miles and can only ba approached at two points. It commands the Bay of Naples and is noted for its singular natural beauty. At least two Italian kings spent much time there in the old days, Augustus and Tiberius, the lat ter moving to a palace there and remaining 11 years, during which he ruled the country without returning to Rome. For a long time it w:as the mecca for ar tists and poets, giving them the inspiration to do their best. It is said that many lovers would gather to see the sunset and the moonrise, and so great was the inspiration that they would remain until the moon went down in the west and the sun rose in the east. Capri is now- a famous summer resort. Looking vip from the foot of Vesuvius, you can see smoke like a huge cloud ascending well into the heav ens. It has much ihe appearance and color of steam coming from a boiling caldron, indicating that much steam is being made down low in the crater. Several years ago much fire and larva came from it during an eruption. The first activity to do damage to the com munity was in 63 A. D., when much property and some lives were lost. In 79 A. D., the convulsion was so great that three proud cities were destroyed, includ ing Pompeii and Herculaneum, with 25,000 people meeting death. I visited the ruins of Pompeii, which have been un covered by excavations and which clearly show some thing of the styles and customs of that day. Many articles of household goods which had been buried for more than 1500 years were found, including crockery and pans. Pones of bread taken from the mass of larva, and burned by it to a mass of black crust, are now shown in the museum of relics. Hollows were found where dead bodies had been encased in the ashes and larva; plaster was poured into these open cavities and casts made in the shape of the bodies. One was that of a young woman, who apparently had fallen and placed her arms across her face and eyes to protect them from the oncoming cloud of soot, ashes .and tlowing larva. Several other casts of bodies are likewise shown in various positions; also a dog is shown as if in a position of agonizing pain. Sev eral fine structures which give a vision of the arts and sciences of that day are plainly seen and show the civilization of that age to be up to the present in many ways. On our return trip we passed through a little town called ‘ Spaghetti and Macaroni,” which claims to manufacture more of these products than any other place in the world. In the afternoon I took a trip around Naples by way of their most beautiful thoroughfare. New York has its Riverside Drive, Chicago has its Lakeside Drive, and N'aples has its Bayside Drive, which is equal to any, according to the size of the city, and which, I think, excels them in natural beauty. At the western end is Little Vesuvius, a small volcano which went into eruption in the year 1197 A. D., and which still sends forth at times a little smoke. We saw many soldiers, with red -tripes on their coat fronts and red coat-tails. There are many boys, apparently about 17 years old, in uniform, with feath ers in their caps and carrying sidearms. Perhaps they are Junior Reserves. Flags arc floating from many buildings. Half of the shops are open for trade and everything seems to be humming. Smoke was com ing from stacks all over the city. Italy wants war from every appearance, and yet she fears complica tions with other nations. The result is yet in doubt. Left the city for our ship at 6 o'clock. Monday, Septembet 23, 1935. Awoke in the open sea with all quiet and the cheer of a clear blue sky smiling down on a wide blue sea. Out of sight of land nearly all day, except for a few island, among them Elba, where Napoleon was king first . It is small and rocky. Also Corsica, which has some historical importance. It is a rather large island, apparently for the most part of solid rock, the base of which, at the water's edge, seems to be cut smooth by time's tide and is of a peculiar green appearance. Sunset and then the stars just the same as ever. Tuesday, Sept. 24, 1934. Pulled up to the wharf at Marseille, France, at sun rise. Breafst on the boat, and all ready to leave. A perfect pell-mell among passengers to get their pass ports ready and go ashore. It took some time to get through the customs, as French officers were rather strict in their examinations. They opened one of my handbags but found nothing to tax. Leaving the old ship after cruising for 12 days and traveling 3,500 miles gave us just a little note of sadness. It had come to be almost like home. We had heard the moan ing of the wind in her rigging and the replying swish of the seas on her great hull until it was almost like music when shut off. From the ship, we went to the hotel for dinner, and after walking around a few of the busy blocks we boarded the train at 1:30 for Avignon, where wre vis ited the palace of the popes from 1305 to 1409, during which time nine popes lived there. It was more of a fortress than a religious edifice from its present ap pearance and was used and badly abused by soldiers quartered there during the World War. The town has the appearance of thrift and prosperity; 55,000 population. A drive across the Rhone River bridge in the adjoining lowgrounds reveals much natural beau ty. Geneva, Switzerland, Wednesday, September 25, 1935. Left Avignon, France at 9:50 a. m., for a journey to Geneva by fast train, reaching Geneva at 5:15. N'o long trip on my travels compares in beauty with this trip, which crosses the northeastern corner of France'and traverses southern Switzerland. For mountain scenery, it compares favorably wdth any of the Appalachian system or the Adirondacks. The mountains extend on either side of the Rhone River Valley for almost the entire trip of several hundred miles, wooded practically the same as our own Caro lina mountains. They stand out most of the distance several miles apart, leaving a level valley between of unusual fertility, upon which is grown alfalfa hay of several kinds, garden vegetables of many kinds, a mong them collards and other salads that we would call "greens.” Grapes and apples are grown in abun dance: some very fine cows are seen grazing in the fields and some sheep. The people here have good horses, and 1 saw several men plowing with oxen yoked together. I also saw toward the southern end of the journey men trimming their mulberry trees. They were cutting them back to stumps from about 5 to 8 feet high. They do this to make them shoot out many young sprouts of suckers for next year to feed their silkworms. It wmuld seem from the ap pearance of the gardens, fields, and hay stacks that neither man nor beast will go hungry in this country this season. Reaching Geneva, we went by bus to the Hotel Richmond, a fine hostelry with good food, including quail again. If you chance to pass this way, stop at the Richmond. Quite a party was pulled off at night. While I do not know just what it was, it was report ed to be a remarriage. The first failed to stick and the couple tried it over again at a party given by their friends. The party seemed to have been made up of | the “grandees,” judging from their appearance and I the length of the cars in front of the hotel. You hear much English spoken lyre, more than in any country we have visited. Lookine for a good day tomorrow. W. C. Manning.. EXECUTOR'S NOTICE Having qualified as executors of the estate of D. F.
