Three young women OF the Village, one
Of them having made a little money In
shop where odd things we're sold for odd
prices to odd tourists, had earned reputa
tion IN their neighborhood for being unique
in their deviltries. They were rumored to
be without any sense of the conventional
and to glory in offending everything that
In the more sedate parts of the city was
considered good form. In fact, 1t was
freely said that they had become so thor
oughly Greenwichvilageized that they
found it necessary to seek wider opportu-
mites for their futuristic impulses. So
they also went to Paris, convinced that they
would find disciples there whom they could
educate UP to their standards and their
own codes.
They found lodgings not far from the
noted-notorious perhaps-Cafe Rotonde,
newly reopened and become the center of
Montmartre night life Their first friends
were group of young women of the most
demure characteristics, who seemed
strangely out of place in such surroundings

Even Our NaughtIeSt Ones
Knew Little in Conparfso

But the villagers that marched upon
Paris to "show" the "old town" how
naughty they could be and how radical in
their views Of life and how disdainful of
its responsibilities found that on the sur
face Of the Latin Quarter the very begin
ners knew more of the sordid side of
human emotion than the oldest timers of
Greenwich Village ever dreamed Of But
they found. too. that in all this unconven-
tionalism there was sense of humor and
an absence Of the deliberate attempt to be
sordid. This distinction they could not
understand.
So they were snubbed and treated as IL
they were of the philistines. They returned
to their old haunts in the Village with
the conviction, many of them, that they
had been pursuing false standards; that
they might as well let their hair grow long
or have il cut according to their sex, and
give up the ambition to be the leaders OF
the worlds emotional radicalisna.

Oldest Was Daughter
Of an Army Officer

The oldest of the group was Mile. de
Rheidt, daughter Of an army officer who
had been killed-the German name orig
mated in the regained province of Lor-
raine. She was the principal in the tableau
dance The others were former artists
models who had been gathered and trained
in the tableau.
Shortly after the arrival of the visitors
from the States this dance was forbidden
by the police. 1t was even too utterly
vicious for Paris. 1t was sacrilegious
affair which violated all the decencies In
Greenwich Village even IL would have been
looked upon with disfavor. Yet Greenwich
Village has the reputation of looking with
disfavor upon nothing that is the express
sion of personal desire and that will not
bring down the police.
Yet in the Latin Quarter--that is, in that

We can picture the self-assurance and

Of Montmartre, that gay quarter of Paris
which is familiarly and rather patroniz-

poetesses and free thinkers of the bobbed

We can see them arriving there with
widely heralded intent to show" the bo-
hemian citizenry of Montmartre how ridic-
ulously sedate they are as compared to
American bohemians: how impotent in
comparison is the Partisan quality of rebel
lion against the conventional.

The same experiences in wide variety

their fads and fancies.

visitors from Greenwich Village did not
penetrate; no mere chance visitor does.
And that is something of the difference,
too. Greenwich Village is mostly geograpb.

all the score or more of Greenwich vii
layers who departed for Paris convinced
that the city Of the Louis and the Pompa-

from them.
These two each with many thousands of
francs for which they had exchanged sew
eral dollars on this side, reached Paris with
gay spirits and considerable expectations.
They had talked glibly in America of the
Latin Quarter, but there they had to in

SIurs on Snub Noses
Greetings at JuIian's

In the Latin Quarter they found lodgings
and sailed forth at once to visit "Julian's,"
the rendezvous of student artists which
is rumored here to be the gayest studio in
the Quarter and the place where all that is
bohemian flourishes. Surely, thought these
two little bobbed haired villagers, "the
habtues of Julians will be glad to receive
visitors from a kindred class in America
and to admit that Paris has nothing to
boast of beside the bohemians of New York"

apologetically explained that none of the
students at Julian's had so far progressed
as to be able to draw snub noses and that
therefore Mademoiselles would have to be
disappointed. Both young ladies were
proud of their noses for the very reason
that they were decidedly not of snub forma-
ton. That was their first enlightenment.
There was gay affair at cafe in the
neighborhood that evening Here the Wis
itors decided would be the place for them
to more properly make their debut. These
sort of affairs always were a bit wicked.
In Greenwich Village there is Sheridan
Hall-certainly Paris could not improve
upon some of the cavortings at this place
on BALI nights. Anyway being in Paris,
the visitors decided they would be able to
accentuate a little bit in their costumes
Which, by way of being paradoxical, meant
abbreviate rather than accentuate
They would be. they declared to them
selves, the very soul of daring-just to
show the natives that New York's colony
was far and away the most bizarre of the
two.
1t was to be that night gathering of
artists and models and free thinkers from
all corners of the Quarter to do honor to
one of their number who had just received
commission to do portrait for famous
statesman. This was one of those commits
sions which, II well executed, starts a
young artist upon the highway to success.
Such important happenings always are
good excuse for celebration at the cafe
which has the most available hall for dane
ing between mixed drinks. Costume at
fairs, always, of course. Daring also and
very unconventional is the behavior al
lowed.
