LONDON AGAIN PACKED WITH

 LONDON, Oct. 3l. - Despite the gloomy picture of London which was painted in American minds by the coal strike and by travellers who re- ported on the dullness of London sum- mer life. the American tourist is not giving England the go-by, after all.
 Early in the summer he passed right on to Paris. or if he stopped off at London he treated 1t as way station and passed on quickly to the more SC. ductive path through France. Brussels, too. he preferred to London. For req sons unspecified Americans have been heard to remark hereabouts that now adays. after week in Brussels, one goes ou to Paris for a rest.
 Certain 1t was that London wasn't an American summer resort, nor were her famous seaports, nor her historic centers.
 HOTELS FILL AS STRIKE ENDS
 But the strike ended and very quickly vast hotels that had con tained more servants by far than guests began to put out standing room only" signs. and Americans with money for the best found themselves turne.. into drab family hotels in side streets. The almighty dollar itself wouldn't buy them a suite at the bril- liant palace of their choice

 Quite frequently he will be wonder ing why audibly-in a country that has not gone dry there are so many hours of the day when there is still a pronounced drought He cannot Un- derstand why he cant have drink after 10 o'clock, or buy cigarettes after eight

LONDON REST CURE

London at best is a rest cure after the gay night life of the continent. for here there's nothing left to do but go to bed after one has done a theater. And as for midnight excursions, with a hope of a bite" or two before going to bcd--it isn't done. It can't be done, except by having your driver take you to a cabstand, curbstone lunch.wagon
 A well-known American actress gave a most miraculous dance to a score of friends recently in a big ho- tel. She managed it by having them sit still after the lights went out at midnight in the regular ballroom After allowing due time for most of the party to leave the light came on again. a wonderful supper was set out, and dancing continued until four in the morning. It probably was illegal It certainly was irregular And, any way, everybody from the states who is tripping in England just now, with money to spend and an inclination for parties. doesn't know a wellknown American actress
