C. Though it was rather earl in the morning for us and going, we were all eager to be on our way. Besides the dear old to be up school building to bid us good4by and a pleasant trip were a few of the parents. It was a Our where we where we perfect day for traveling which made our spirits soar that much higher. first rest stop was in Clarksburg, Ohio and then on to Chillicothe, ate dinner. From here we proceeded on to Parkersburgh, West Virginia 'were to spend the night at the Blennerhasset Hotel. After being shown to our rooms, we went out to supper and to a movie. Soon after returning to our rooms Mrs. Taff and Mrs. Kinder surprised the girls with a large box of candy which we all enjoyed. Although we finally got to bed, we slept very little be- cause of the constant phone calls from our classmate down the hall. It was a sleepy but happy group that left Parkersburg on Sunday morning. We had one rest stop and then on to Table Rock Inn which is located on the top of Back Bone Ridge, where we all enjoyed a delicious dinner. After buying a number of souvenirs, we left on the last lap to Washington. wa crossed West Virginia, Maryland, entered West Virginia again, Virginia, and then into the District of Columbia arriving in Washington about 7:30 on Sunday evening. After taking our suitcases to our rooms, we went up town to eat supper. We then visited the Mayflower Hotel before returning to the Cairo Hotel where we were staying during our time in Washington. After a long day of travel everyone was glad to settle down for a good night's rest. Monday morning saw us ready to start our tour of the city. The first place we visited was the Pan American Building. Everyone was impressed by the tropical beauty of the Spanish patio which had almost every kind of tree and plant that grows in South America.

Next we visited the Bureau of Printing and Engraving. Never had we seen so much money! we were shown around by a guide who answered questions as well as told us how the money was made. From here we went to the National Gallery of Art. Here one of the most famous art collections in the world is found Ln the rose- white marble gallery which was Andrew Mellon's 15 million dollar gift to the nation. Though our knowledge of art wasn't sufficient to appreciate the great collection, it was all very interesting. Our last tour before noon was the Capitol building. One of the highlights of this tour was our ride in the Senate subway before going into the Capitol. After going through many of the rooms we sat in the gallery overlooking the House Chamber and watched five minutes of a session. We also visited Earl Wilson our congressman, and had our picture taken with him. After dinner we toured the Federal Bureau of Investigation where we were told and shown how the F.B.I. does its job - whether it is smashing a big spy ring or tracking down a notorious public enemy. A guide showed the tools and instruments used in crime and its detection, explained the finger print system used by the bureau, looked at the crime detection laboratories, and finally we were taken to the firearms identification laboratory where a special agent gave an exhibition of how deadly the C-men are with guns. This was One Of the mOSt interesting buildings we visited. From here we went to the Washington monument . We ascended to its summit by the large elevators. Many of the group took pictures from the top of the monument. We stopped at the Lincoln Memorial and the Jefferson Memorial. The huge statues of both men were one of the most impressive sights. On our way back to the hotel we passed many of the embassies. Among those we saw were the British,Venezuelan, Japanese, Russian, and Spanish Embassies. Also we drove through the goo. When we got back to the hotel we were ready to rest after walking so much and climbing so many steps. The evening was spent by most of us in talking over the events of the day and listening to the radio with members of the group com- ing in and out of our rooms during the evening. Tuesday found us ready for another day's tour beginning with the Smith- sonian Institure. One of the highlights in the aircraft building was the USpirit of St. Louis,U used by Charles A. Lindbergh in his history-making trans-Atlantic flight. There were so many interesting things in this building that there wasn't nearly enough time tf see as much as we would have liked to. Close to this Smithsonian Institute was the Medical Building that several of us visited. From here we went to thc Supreme Court Building which is considered one of the most beautiful structures in the world. The white marble winding stairway was one of the most interesting things in the interior. Across from the Supreme Court Building was the Library of Congress which is the largest library in the world. One of the library's chief attractions is the original of the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. After noon we went to Mount Vernon, stopping on the way at Arlington National Cemetery. On the highest point of the cemetery is the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, guarded night and day, and resting on the white marble platform of the impressive amphitheatre. Here, too, is the Lee Mansion which we went through. It has some of the most beautiful furnishings that were seen on our triy. We pro- ceeded on to Mount Vernon. After touring the house, out buildings, the gardens, and the tomb of George and Martha Washington, we boarded the bus and started back to the hotel. We went through the historic city of Alexandria where many historical places were pointed our to us by our guide. We made a brief stop at the Airport and then went bact to the Hotel. Though we were worn out, nearly everyone was ready for the excursion on the Potomac River that night. The boat went as far as Mount Vernon and back.
