(IfciaQfeEaQSet® THE lowellian ADMINISTRATION - EGYPT The trip across the Atlantic was uneventful and one bright day we found ourselves in Brindisi, Italy. Pausing only long enough to admire the golden sunshine, blue sky, singing peas¬ ants, and dark-eyed children, we were soon sailing away on the Mediterranean. The sea was sapphire blue and as we passed the volcano, Stromboli, tongues of red flames stabbed the black of the sky. Before long we reached Port Said where the real East begins, where every race has been blended for years pro¬ ducing a strange and weird result. Most of us wanted to go to Cairo, so we boarded one of the slow, hot. dirty tra : ns and in a few hours we were approaching that city. As we neared C airo, three ghost-like cones of what seemed to be gray and golden sand rose out of the earth, the famous pyramids of Egypt. To the left were the Makattan hills, while to the right flowed the broad smooth Nile. Dirty, colorful, and busy Cairo with its yellowish white roofs, its many towers and domes, and Mo¬ hammedan minarets. And over it all the blazing sun! A babel of sounds, people calling on Allah in prayer, and the cries of the squatting owners of the bazaars advertising their wares. Through the narrow streets we wandered idly—seeing and buying. By chance we met a group of Egyptian students who spoke English very well and strange as it may seem, in a side¬ walk cafe of Cairo, we discussed dear old Lowell High. They were very interested in our school, especially the way in which they were governed. We told them about our School Board, its duties, and relation to the school. Page twelve
