of France has awakened something Ike dismay
among all persons interested In the welfare OF the
population In Normandy especially the women

marchands de vin-the temptation awaits them at
every turn and corner for there are no licensing
laws in France. the grocers. greengrocers coal

nracice OF selling intoxicating drink. The servants
and other women who make their purchases In
these establishments make their visits the excuse
for a glass. which is often given them by the shop
keeper with a view TO securing their custom DIT
Rrunon declares that a cook who does not drink to
excess IS almost unknown In Normandy, ana ne
cites the most extraordinary cases OF young girls
