Phone 1571 ceum Club and Women's Art Asso- ciation were taken on a sight-see- ing trip through Italy by the Rev. H. D. Cleverdon yesterday afer- noon. Mr. Cleverdon, rector of Christ Memorial Church, served as a padre in Sicily and Italy and brought . back' with hirth lasting memories of the wonders of that classic land glimpsed through the fog of war. Taking his listeners first to Syra- BEE th ge that he caused the architect, An- gelo Carasali to build a secret passage under the road from his palace directly into the royal box. Ancient City Of Pompeii Pompeii was the next stop en route, and while Mr. Cleverdon was in the vicinity Mount Vesuvius poured out one of its erratic erup- tions of ash. The dirt and filth hung in the air for an area of 50 miles. Mr. Cleverdon told a ro- mantic tale of old Pompeii which was destroyed by this same ash 2,000 years ago. Careful excavating has laid bare almost the entire city, he said, with its outer walls 20 feet thick, its arena, amphitheatre and temple. He was amazed at the modern planning of this ancient city, re- marking on the fine stone roads with storm sewers and catch traps which carried away' the garbage which was presumably thrown from kitchen windows which looked onto the street. He described the home of the Vetti brothers, wealthy mer- chants, whose home, built in the prevailing open square style, is al- most intact. The women were much Members of Lyceum Club Taken On a Travelogue of Italy The Oshawa members of. the Ly- amused at his description of the ancient kitchen, complete with counters and built-in cupboards. All Roads Lead To Rome Mr. Cleverdon entered Rome through the Arch of Constantine by way of Cassino. The emperor Constantine announced that the arch, was to celebrate the accept- ance of Christianity within the Roman Empire, actually it was to commemoral victories over his enemies. The mighty Coliseum at- tracted Mr. Clevérdon and he found | it easy he said, to people it with thousands of lusty Romans, betting on their favorite gladiators and Corso Umberto I at the end of which stands a memorial to Vit- torio Emmanuel I which Mr. Clev- erdon described as a modern mon- strosity. Fifty tons of bronze were used to make the gigantic .eques- trian statue of the former king of Italy under which rests the body of the unknown warrior of World War I, At the other end of the Corso is the Piazzo di Populo, where Shelley and Keats once lived, and nearby is the little Protestant church in lost, Mr. Cleverdon- explained. Roma in Italian spelled backwards, is Amor, the Latin for love, but leg- end has it that the secret was hidden by the priests of Castor and Pollux, the heavenly twins. Mrs. W. G. Corben introduced Mr. Cleverdon, whose informal talk was greatly enjoyed.
