"After Chijstmas day we all try to work. We go to the Pltte Palace, where we are assigned definite things to measure, draw or point; but we cannot work." "After school we go to the an tique shops, to the factories, where cina is made and painted, to gar dens and squares, to watch street shows of dogs, monkeys or rats; to the puppet shows, which are very tragic and real and marvelous- The first madonna, painted by Clmabue is here, stiff rigid, black ened by age, but with the dawn of sympathy and feeling in her re strained beauty. The most wonder ful examples of art of Lucia Delia Robbia and Donatello are here, and the loveliest of Fran Angelico's angels. A nation might well be proud to boast as many Illustrious names in literature and are as this one small city. A lifetime would be too short to study all that Flor ence has to offer. Yes, Florence alone is worth a trip to Europe, and must be the most wonderful at Christmas time.
