this amendment was made at the request Of
the Anti Saloon League in order to make 1t
possible to have dry Judges assigned to try
liquor cases in districts where the resident
Judge was wet.
This need not be taken seriously. The
Chief Justice is not likely to assume that
there are any Federal Judges SO lost to all

" MERICANS usually come to
- Paris in a whirl of excitement,
and hurry to buy out the shops.
3 or see the art galleries. or go to
the races or visit the grotesque re-
sorts of Montmartre. They come
prepared for a thrill Of virtuous
horror and look disappointed If things
are not as bad as fancy painted them.
They go to the shows prepared ex-
pressly for foreigners and to the vast
cosmopolitan hotels and go away no
wiser than they came as to the charm
of the real Paris.
The Art OF Loafing
To enjoy Paris one must know how
to loaf. The active. temperamental
French man or woman has made a
fine art Of loafng. No one in the
world understands it better. When
work is over it is over and complete
relaxation and loafing begin. Some
sidewalk cafe tempts them and they
sit and watch the passers by, some
garden in the city draws them and
they sit beneath the dropping trees
and idly dream, sensing meanwhile
the beauty of flowers and murmuring
fountains, the shady banks of the
river delight many and they stay and
gaze until the sunset colors fade and

the shadows come. One and all go
home rested and refreshed. with
nerves no longer tense, thankful for
what life gives and ready for another
day.
Parks Are Crowded
On Sundays and holidays the vast
and beautiful park of the Bots de
Boulogne and numerous other gar
dens in the city and in the vicinity of
Paris are filed with happy families
If the weather is propitious the en-
tire family goes. including usually a
parrot in a cage and one or two cats
or dogs. A baby carriage is often
utilized to carry everything, including
lunch and the weeks mending, which
the mother does leisurely sitting on
the grass. There are no restrictions
about the things one may do or the
place where one may walk. Swings
are strung on trees and hammocks
hung, a rug is spread for the babies
to sprawl on and wraps are hung on
bushes. They bring also chessboards
and tennis racquets, and anything
that may for the moment interest
them. They come early in the morn
ing and stay all day. 1t makes them
over for the new weeks work. There
is almost no litter of any kind left
