ROMANTIC OLD ARRAS
NO MORE PICTURESQUE CITY TO
BE SEEN IN FRANCE.
Has Seen Much Of French History In
the Making and Is Today Com
mercial Point of I'm
portance.

The picturesque old city of Arras,
centrated in huge numbers to check
the German advance, and where the
British fell back after the Germans
occupied Cambria, must have walked
up and rubbed it's antique eyes to see
Its quondam foes within its gates as
allies of its beloved country. For
Arras was within the triangle over
which the English fought in the
fifteenth century.
The base Of the triangle was the
sea line from Harfleur to Calais, and
the apex was Paris. This is also the
ground over which some of the
hercest battles of the present war
ragged.
For thirty years the English battled
until nothing was left Of their French
territory except the Norman isles
and the newer conquest of Calais and
Its small territory. At last, in 1885,
at the peace of Arras, Philip of Bur
gundy "solemnly" forsook the English
alliance, and the English power in
France fell back.
This old town, which dates back to
the time of Caesar, is 100 miles north
east from Paris, and has population
Of something like $4,000 people.
While it is most painful to think Of
this once great art center as an in
dustrial place, one must, when he re-
calls the oil works, dye works, brew
cries and the manufactures of hos
iery, lace, beet sugar, soap and earth
enware, which make it today a twenti.
eth century commercial town.
However, its glory cannot depart
while the beautiful townhouse, dating
from the sixteenth century, the cita.
del partly gone, erected by Vauban,
marshal of France and the greatest
military engineer of the seventeenth
century, and the tall, imposing houses
in the Flemish style overlooking the
fine squares, with the upper stories
projecting over the footway, remain.
These topheavy looking houses
were built in time when mans
house was indeed his castle, and the
projecting upper stories were used to
wage warfare on the enemy in the
narrow street below. The modern
armies with their wonderful and nu-
merous equipment of war must often
find it difficult to get through these
narrow streets in the old towns Of
France and Germany. They are bet
ter suited to the time when men
fought hand to hand, and warfare was
a matter of individual bravery.
That wonderful tapestry in the
Anglers cathedral, which represents
scenes from the Apocalypse, was
made in Arras, and some of the finest
pieces used in the decorations of the
field Of the cloth of gold.
Robespierre, the most famous and
fanatcal Of the republican leaders Of
the French revolution, was born there
in 1858, and later became criminal
judge and a member of the academy.
He was one of the dandies and beaux
of Arras, setting the fashion in clothes,
and astonishing the most exquisite
with the richness of his laces and
dress. This is difficult to believe
when ones vision Of him is always in
the bonnet rouge of the revolutionist,
standing, with impassioned eloquence,
encouraging the people.

The farmer who buys horses for his
own use has a great deal to learn
about farming.
No animal on the farm grows into
money more quickly than well-bred
colt.
A sire at 81 is dearer than one at
$50, provided the mare is well-bred.
A horse Weighing 1000 pounds is
about right for the farm. He should
be no heavier.
