NVE FOUND Switzerland a illlwy-Y mi-ilern and beautiful country but one of many contrasts. From large modern cities like lieueva we traveled to Lucerne with its Middle Ages atmosphere blending with the cosinopolitaii hotels and shops. Each mountain rise brought forth a new view ui green covered hills and small villages clinging to the sides of the valleys. In Geneva we visited the buildings of the United Nations and walked through the grounds on which modern history has been made. Almost everyone spoke English, in fact many people there speak three or more languages: usually French, German and Spanish.

VVe left Cannes by bus and motored through the green French countryside to the sea- port of Marseille where we caught trains for Paris. Promenading down the Champ-Elysees we walked under the shadow of the towering Arc de Triomphe and strolled on further to the limpid Seine river. On the other side of the Seine we soon discovered the Left Bank and Montmarte with its artists' colonies and small out door restau- rants. Vile sampled fine French wines alongside of famous, and not so famous, artists and writers. The Latin Quarter with its own unique atmos- phere and its university traditions, is one of the last surviving districts of an older Paris and many of its narrow streets and alleys have retained an old-world charm. , C ll On the Rue De La Paix.
