Landing at Le Havre or Cherbourg one should first visit Normandy, Brittany, and the Loire country. P r o f e s s o r Aiton stressed the desirability of approch- ing Paris through the provinces, oe- cause much of the flavor of the trip is lost if one goes directly to the cap- ital. From Paris the trip south may be made through Nimes, Aries, Avignon, the Riviera, and across to Carcas- sonne. From Carcassonne the route to Spain lies through Barcelona. From Carcassonne the route to Spain lies through Barcelona. A circular trip through Spain will allow the traveler to see the majority of places of interest. From Barce- lona one may go down the east coast to Valencia, Alicante, and Murcia, then to Granada by way of Elche, visiting Malaga and Gibraltar. Then there is Cadiz and finally Madrid. Before leaving Spain you will prob- ably wish to visit Toledo, and San Sebastian. You are again near 'the border of France and after a glimpse of the Pyrenees, Pau, and the Basque country you are ready to go back to Paris. Professor Aiton suggests that trav- elers to Europe this summer pur- chase all expense paid trips because of the fluctuating exchange rates. You may not save money but you 1 remove the uncertainty.

When the "luncheon interval" or the "tea interval" interrupts the play, Americans who really want to see the English at their best descend and stroll on the playing field or be- hind the large and uncomfortable locking "tally-hoes," on which are seated Britain's blue-bloods, laugh- ing, shouting, and having the snack that they call "tea." SEE AN by expert planning Your time in iEurope is - precious. Don't waste it! Our planning will make the most judicious use of every day and hour-will avoid uncertainties, de- lays in connections, will pack the most pleasure into every moment. Let us handle reserva- tions and all details for you. No charge to you Travel As Aid To Education Is Described People, Customs Of Old World Help I Study Of The New, Says Davis The educational benefits which can be derived from travel are almost unlimited, in the opinion of Dr. C. 0. Davis of the School of Education. Dr. Davis was speaking from experi- ence, for he has traveled extensive- ly, not only in this country but in Ehurope, Asia, and Africa as well. One of te first things that strikes the traveler to the countries of the Near East is the great difference be- tween the standards of living in these countries and in our own, Dr. Davis says. In Egypt especially, beggars crowd the narrow streets and when night coies or when they feel the need of rest they slump down where; they are and fall asleep. Another characteristic of Egypt which also reflects the Egyptian standards of living are the flies. According to Dr. Davis, children go around with swarms of black flies clinging to their faces without even bothering to brush the insects off. Precautions Interesting To an American who is accustomed to numerous automobile and train accidents every year, the precautions which European railroad take to prevent such accidents comes as a pleasant surprise. Every crossing, no matter how much traffic there is, is protected by a gate and a watchman. The more important crossings have subways for the vehicular traffic, Dr. Davis said. Many amusing experiences come about as the result of trading with native merchants. The accepted plan is to make the price high when a traveler approaches - at least four or five times what the dealer really expects to get, Dr. Davis thinks. They will lower the price to within a rea- sonable amount of the actual value and below that they will not go, even though they loss a sale. Every Mode of Land Travel In the narrow streets that are characteristic of many of the cities of Egypt and western Asia can be seen almost every mode of land trav- el known, except, of course, railroads or street cars, according to Dr. Da- vis. Autmobiles follow the pace set by natives on horseback, muleback, or even on foot. People carrying baskets on their heads pass in and out among the moving traffic and Dr. Davis says he has yet to see an accident occur. The unhurried stead-- iness with which everything is done is wonderful to see, he said. "There are so many little incidents which occur on a trip such as we took (a Mediterranean cruise) and stick in our memory that it would take hours to tell of them all," Dr. Davis said. The things that can be learned from traveling even for a short time in a foreign country, which give us a better understanding I of the people and customs on the other side of the world, are really invaluable in the better understand- ing of our own country, he said.
