ROME V- the formei center I the ancieni Roman republic and of the Roman Empire, ami the- headquarter! of the Christian church. Rome is unique among historical cities, ami it- antiquarian interest far surpasses that of any other locality m the world. One feels, i-itm Rome, thai one i- visiting the tombs ol one ' s forefathers, for il we are nut blood de-eendents ol the aneient Romans we are at an rate their cultoral and spiritual descendents. It take- years to visil Rome from an .iri poinl of view. Bui if one goes to St. Peter ' s ami stands at the toot ol ihe imposing pillars one feels already initiate.! into the mysterious beaut) «.t the Roman civilisation. Behind St. Peter ' s stretches the Vatican City, shut off from the outside world and storing the art treasures ■! the world. Here it was thai Michelangelo ga e the world his stupendous murals on the wall- ..I the Sistine Chapel. From the r....t ..f t. Peter ' s one sees the whole ol Rome - the Rome thai cannol be visited either in a few days or by mean- .,f a few hundred words of description. One sees the Borghesc Gardens, green against the white marble of the city, the swirling Tiber, the nearb hills under which are the catacombs used b tin- earl) Christian martyrs; and, in a strange ami perhaps not too pleasant contrast one sees the glittering white wedding-cake ictor Emmanuel monument rising side In -i.le «ith the ancieni ruin of the Capitohne Hill.
