THE PAanoT 35 visit was to Christ's Church, the only church left standing which was built during the colonial period. George Washington attended this church and we had the never-to-be-forgotten experience of sitting in the VVashington pew. Lincoln Memorial was our last stop for the afternoon. Who of us will ever forget the thrill of standing at the foot of Lineoln,s Statue looking up into that kind face so furrowed with lines of suffering. VVe reached our temporary home just in time for dinner. Sat- urday evening the girls went to Loew's Palace theater to see the VVhite Sister, while the stronger sex went to Loew's Columbia theater where they saw the Vampire Bat. Ice cream and gingerale reconciled the di- vided theater parties. Easter Sunday and rain appeared hand in hand laughing at us who had planned to wear Easter clothes to church. However, we smiled right back, put on our second-best clothes, put up our one umbrella and went to church. The afternoon was spent in resting for our next day's adventures. That night we all went fafter an evening's debatel to I,oew's Fox Theater to see the premiere of Looking Forward and heard Isham Jones and his orchestra. The girls treated at a party held after the movies. A visit to VVashington Monument, the Bureau of Engraving, and the Pan American Building occupied Monday morning. Monday af- ternoon we spent wandering around the Smithsonian Museum and shopping. Our last night in VVashington! How quickly the time had passed! VVe didn't leave the hotel Monday night but had a large farewell party at which we entertained some guests from Dannemora, New York thigh school pupils, you must understandj. Our telephones ringing merrily at 7:30 started the last day of our trip. After we had said our farewells to those with whom we had made friends during our three days, stay, we went directly to the sta- tion where we started our homeward trek about 9:00 o'clock. We en- joyed dinner at an automat in Philadelphia. After dinner we visited Independence Hall with its two very interesting museums. We arrived in New York about 4:30 P. M. The rest of the afternoon was spent in visiting some of the larger stores in New York. Dinner at Drakes again! We all did full justice to an excellent meal and window- shopped until train time. About 11:30 the good old train carrying as its passengers, twelve weary Castletonians, chugged into Castleton Station. It was good to go but it was better to get back! We wish to thank all those who made our wonderful Washington trip possible: Mr. and Mrs. Shillinglaw for their chaperonage and lest-we-forget, Mr. Bretseh for the salted nuts.
