The Worthings Return From Trip Abroad
Thirteen countries were on the itinerary
for a European trip from which Dr. and Mrs. Hugh O. Worthing, 2330 N. 6th St.,
have returned. During the period of approximately three months, they traveled in
Italy, Austria, Switzerland, France, Monaco, Luxembourg, Western Germany, The
Netherlands, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Scotland and England. The first part of
the trip was not pleasant - for five days winds on the Atlantic blew a 100-mile
gale while they were aboard the Christopher Columbus. The ship docked at Naples,
Italy. In that country, they were among the throng that viewed the remains of
Pope Pius X, whose body had been brought back as promised. When the
Sheboyganites reached Paris, France, they were the guests of their niece, Miss
Marion Worthing of Chevy Chase, Md., who is a first secretary in the American
Embassy. She has been abroad two years and has been re-appointed for two
additional ones. However, she will be having a two-month leave, beginning in
November, and will be coming to the United States. She also expects to be
visiting the Worthings in Sheboygan. By motor Miss Worthing took her uncle and
aunt to Luxembourg, Western Germany - Cologne, Bonn, Coblenz and Heidelberg. En
route they spied a sign that read "Gunstbach," which Miss Worthing knew was the
home of Albert Schweitzer. They stopped at his little home town, where he had
rebuilt the organ and recorded much of his music.................
