tablish firmly the rules of the Ian.
Iguage, and make French ont only ele-
giant, but capable of dealing with all
arts and sciences. The "Comedie-
Francaise" or Theatre of France, has
rendered great service in preserving
a standard of French pronunciation
on this point it co-operated with the
Academic" in keeping the French
language pure.
Races and Nationalities: English
actors and cartoonists have adopted
a certain typical caricature of the
Frenchman; they represent his as a
stoutish, middle-sized man, with dark
hair, heavy moustache and pointed
beard, laxative and gay, easily ex-
citable, and usually harmless. The
caricature is quite legitimate, as this
type of man does exist in France, and
is not so common in other countries,
while the other French types are too
similar to one or another of her for
eign neighbors to be distinctive, as a
caricature must be. The following
races and nationalities are represent
ed in France today: Iberians, Celts,
Nordic, Greeks, Romans, Huns, Arabs.
Jews, English, Scottish, Irish, Span
iards, Italians and Bigoudens.
Religion: The vast majority of the
French are, nominally at least, Ro-
nina Catholic. There are 81 arch
bishops and bishops and seven car
dinals. Napoleon on his religious
policy said, ''In positive religions, ]
trace the workings of man at every
step-yet--our religion is port of our
fate. When, at the time Of the Con
cordat, some old revolutionists came
and asked me to make France Prot

during the period of Capetian France

Climate: The temperature is mod.

Etiquette: On some points the
French are more pnstilious, on others
less so, than Americans. For in
stance, they think their neighbors are
too shy to strangers, and insist unduly
on not addressing person before a
proper introduction has taken place.
On the other hand, Frenchmen who
meet every day in the year, will take
off their hats to one another.
Funerals: They would never dream
of hurrying their dead to their graves
in motor hearses, as we do in Ameri-
can cities, or even driving them there
at trot, as in London. Parisians
still walk weary miles from house to
church and church to cemetery, in the
following order: The clergy pre-
cedes the hearse, singing or saying
prayers, bearing a cross; the chief
mounors {bare-headed), then the
men, the nthe women.
Education: They say ''instruc-
ton" They try to educate their
children just as the British try to in
struct them; yet the difference in ter
mineology is interesting because it
does correspond with a difference in
points Of view. They have come to
believe that a teachers duty is es-

facts and principles. He should shape
and fiji the mind; as to the hearts;
conscience, or souls, he should not de-
part in his action upon them from un-
deniable principles, No part Of his
teachings should be matter Of con

vide his publis with maximum Of
