7 t 0 ci iU To every visitor who stops inside its gates, Paris is life. What glowing phrases can do justice to its beauty? New words must be minted. Hemingway mistal enly selects Madrid as the capital of the world. Ernest, you should know better -- it is surely the hub of the Gallic empire, gay Paree, Here you have chestnut trees embracing the Champs-Elysees, red checked tables of sidewalk cafes, Mademoiselles of Pigaile, the brown timeless Seine with its bookstalls and bridges and barges, fhe Left Bank teems with strangers huddling to- gether over the bonfire of Art to cut the frost of Ignorance and Apathy. It is a city of monuments and steeples. The Eiffel Tower looms like a lofty sentinel of latticed steel guarding the glamourous geography around its base. The Arc de Triom- phe, the cathedrals Notre-Dame and Sacre Coeur, the vast chambers of the Louvre, the majestic Palais de Chaillot rise from garden and avenue to claim their singular beauties.

Longchamps. . . Montmartre . . . It is provocative as a come-hither smile, baudy as a jestful wink, gay as a child- at carnival time. It is heady as the bouquet of a litre of Mumms... just drink it down, we dare you. A mood, a refrain, a fancy, a dream. It is all this, too. You haven ' t seen it yet? Kriend, your life is incomplete. You ' re going the next in-port period? Ah, good for you — you will be richer and wiser for it. A toast, you say? Ccr(ammcn( ... Marie, bring on wine, you lovely wench! (Clink of glasses) Sure, friend, we ' re with you. (Chorus and loud cheers) To Paris! m 11
