of the curious aspects of the war In
France is the effort OF the railways
to encourage the customary tourist
travel. While the number of Ameri-

of travelling in country at war. there
are a good many English tourists.
The tourists. of course. are CCufning
themselves to travel in the large part
of France that is outside Of the war
zone"
