Miss Helen Haubold Is Home From Europe Trip

Miss Helen Haubold, music instructor for the Decatur public schools, returned home about a week ago after a trip to Europe, where she discovered that it's a small and fascinating world.

Miss Haubold tells that they visited the usual tourist points in these countries and that it was all interesting but there are a few highlights which impressed her most. One of the most unusual experiences occurred in Rome as the Decatur travelers were having lunch in a restaurant there. While they were talking they happened to mention Adams county. The man at the next table heard them and asked if they were referring to Adams county, Indiana. He was Carl Suedhoff, a prominent Fort Wayne man, who has friends in thia county. Miss Haubold and Suedhoff sent a card from Rome to William Klepper of Huntington, a former resident of Decatur and a mutual friend of the two tourists. Another highlight of Miss Haubold’s trip was a fashion showing by Christian Dior, internationally famous designer of women’s clothing. Tlfe showing was not open to the public but they received invitations through business connections of Mrs. Hallahan, who has a shop in St. Louis. In Rome the two were able to join an audience of about 10,000 people with Pope Pius XII. It was the first large audience the Pope has held since his recent illness.

They attended a Swiss folk lore festival at Lucerne, Switzerland, on the Fourth of July. The Swiss, in recognition of the American tourists present, included music by Sousa and Kern in their program and marked their tables with miniature American and Swiss flags. Miss Haubold stated that they bad no difficulty in being understood in tbe various countries since there are always English speaking persons available. She said that they were treated very well wherever they went. She was very impressed with the way Europe, especially Germany, has restored itself after the last World War. She added that there are still signs of tbe war but for the most part the damaged cities and towns have been rebuilt i1 Os all the places she visited, Miss Haubold liked southern Italy best. She described, this locality as charming and said that she enjoyed that section of Italy. Like a true artist, she brought back many souvenirs of her trip including figurines, wood carvings, jewelry, leather goods, lace pieces and a lovely soft wool stole. The final highpoint of their trip was attending services at Westminster Abbey in London before they boarded their plane for home. They made the trip -to Europe by ship but traveled home by plane. Miss Haubold thought it most interesting to attend church one Sunday at Westminster Abbey and the next Sunday in Decatur. Her trip is over now, but the popular Decatur teacher will be reliving it for a long time as she describes it to her friends.
