MIDINETTES TAKE ISSUE
WITH FRENCH LEADERS
Working Girls Throw Immortals'
Straw Academician Into
Seine in Protest.
~ the Associated Press.


PARIS, April 19.-The "midinettes, -
attractive little working girls OF
France, who were refused a place in
the Academic Francais' ponderous
dictionary, are revenged.
On the Saturday afternoon follow
ing the academy's learned decision
that "midinette' was a slang word
and as such not admissible in a die
tionary of pure French, the young
women in question marched by the
way of the Paris boulevards to the
Bridge of Arts. where with shouts
they dumped straw academician into
the Seine.
The midinettes. were not the only
ones to take, up the challenge of the
Forty Immortals" of the academy.
French writers have heaped a storm
of criticism and mockery upon their
heads.
The midinette is dear to the French
heart. She got her name from midi,
noon in French, because at midday
the working girls come out by tou-
sands from the shops and factories.
In fine weather they eat their cold
lunch sitting on street and park
benches ana then go into small cafes
for a glass of coffee, il they can af.
ford it. Parisians smile at the giggles
and laughter and forgive the pranks
because the girls are so full of life
and radiate joy on small pay.
