CITY is OLD, YET MODERN
Rouen Has Double Charm for the Wei
tor Who Has Proper Eye for
Civic Beauty.

Rouen, the old capital of Normandv
whence William the Conqueror planned
hrs wars against England, is a civ
which persists in keeping up to date
through the centuries. 1t is bustlinv
modern town today in spite of its long
and strenuous past. You can buy the
Oldest of antiques and the most modern
Of manufactures in Rouen, both strict.
ly local products.
Like many American cities, Rouen
makes its poorest impression from the
railway stations. No matter which
train you pass through on, if you were
to take what you see through the car
rage window as a fair sample of the
old city, you would never alight and In.
vestigate. 1t is necessary to have faith
in Rouen, to believe in more beautiful
things around the corner, and, as Is
often the case, he who has faith is re-
warded.
There are few places where the CON
trast between the medieval and the
modern stands out more clearly than in
this old-new city of France. The broad
and handsome boulevards, the brightly
lighted shops, the bustling cafes are
very much of the twentieth century:
and the grim old stone houses, the time
blackened carven walls seem to look
down on the pageant of modern life
flowing past them with a dignied pur.
itanical disapproyal. Leading off from
some broad new boulevard you often
find one of the old-time narrow streets
just wide enough for foot traffic, that
was laid out in the days when RoueD
was a walled city and the needs of the
pedestrian, or at most the hOrseman,
were the only ones to be considered.
The traditional idol of Rouen is 5oan
Of Are. They have named q street and
a square for her, the best of her statues
are found here, and there is a museum
given over to relics of her strange ca
reer. Here is the tower where the IN.
fortunate maiden was tried and con.
demned. Through these same streets
she rode in her bright armor, and here
she died at the stake.

GREATER FRANCE NEAR
BRAND SAYS PRESTIGE HAS
GROWN IN EYES OF WORLD.
Premier Declares French Showed un-
heard-of Heroisn and People Saw
They Had Misjudeed Them.

Paris, Oct. 1S.--Remodeling of
French political methods after the war.
resulting in a concentration of govern
ment, is predicted by Premier BRAND,
according to conversation the premier
has had with friends, which is recapitu-
lated in the Figaro by Alfred Capus,
the dramatist and member of the
French academy. Speaking of the ac-
tual situation, Premier BRAND said:
Il simply ask you TO consider what
has already been gained and what no
hazard of war can take from us. Com
pare what France and Paris were in
July, 1914, with what they are in DC
tober, 1916. The truth is that we
we're not decadent, but that new
generation had sprung up, more SEN
sible, perhaps, to reminders of defeat;
more serious. more impatient than
those which had preceded it.
German lnsolence had contributed
great deal to this state of mind. And
as one, nevertheless, dared not to think
of war; there resulted a continual con-
flict between exalted imaginations and
humdrum routine politics. 1t was a
kind of moral confusion. which mani
tested itself by an acute need for dis
traction; by a violent desire for the
new, the unexpected.
"A nation seen from without has
general aspect to which all its citizens
contribute. 1t is that aspect which a
foreigner sees and upon which he
forms his opinion. Well our aspect
was not in our favor, and that was be-
cause it was not truly ours. 1t was dis
torted by an old defeat and the truth
is that the day that defeat was wiped
out, when France showed by unheard-
of heroism that she meant to throw
off the obsession--On that day sudden
ly all people by common agreement
recognized their error as regards us,
and the prestige of France has become
again extraordinary-grea than it
has ever been at any epoch.
