For the two of us it costs SIS a

we make it less by not having meat.

possible. In May, June and July

school In France is a remarkable fact
in the republics progress. The con-

have been administered even in re-
mote districts with increasing wisdom.
Certain distinguishing French charac-
teristics, aptitude for science, clarity

cal faculty, intellectually and artistic

and reference is made not merely
to the Sorbonne or the Ecole de Beaux

moved from the capital. The French
peasant wishes the best for his chill
