WASHINGTON P)-French- Cana
dian leaders from the province of
Quebec have sailed this month on a
pilgrimage of honor to the birthplaceS
N France Of their colonial heroes.
Since Jacques Cartier, Champlain,
and La Sale are heroes to the Eng
disappearing as well as the French
speaking peoples of North America,
the Quebecois pilgrims will represent
the whole continent at many of their
historical shrines the party will visit
in France, says the National Geo.
graphic society," r,ess,,,s,- s,s,
Landing at Cherbourg they will
( honor the home town of Jean Nicolet,
who first explored Lake Michigan
nearly three centuries ago. Crossing
the mouth of the Seine they will lay
flowers on an historical plaque in Hon
fleur from which port Samuel de
Champlain sailed for the New World.
At Rouen they will enter the cathe-
dral where La Sale was baptized. At
Dieppe a reception is planned because
ancestors of many Quebec families
4came from there. There was, for ex-
ample, Louis Hebert, the pharmacist
I who became the first farmer of Can
ada. On brief run out of Paris the
French Canadian historical pilgrims
will come to the curious Norman chapel
where NGaisonneuve, brave founder OF
Montreal, was baptized.
Leaving northern France they will
go south to Mines and to the village
of Vestric- Candiac, birthplace OF Mar
quis de Montcalm who nobly and
vainly defended Frances foothold in
America from the English forces under
General Wolfe. At La Rochelle, above
Bordeaux, the pilgrims will be at the
port from which the founders of Mon
treal sailed and the home OF the LIE
Moynes, whose sons founded New
Orleans, La, and Mobile, Ala Not fal
away is the revered soil of Brouage-
en-Saintonge, birthplace of Cham

cial comedy in which airmen and a
farmer are at odds.
At Dunkirk the London Brussels air
liner with 10 passengers aboard came
down in a clover field and ran into
two COWS. The farmer had to have
the COWS killed. He promptly drew up
a bill of expense.
Besides the two COWS he added the
item of one field of clover and pre-
sented it to the pilots. The pilots
argued and wouldn't pay. The farmer
went off to the seat of justice and
came back with court officer and
writ of attachment. The airplane own
ars finally had to put up security be-
fore the indignant farmer would let
them board the machine and fly away.

RUN ON CZAR-ROUBLE
PUZZLES GERMAN BANKERS

BERLIN, GA surprising run on
the old czar-rouble has been attracting
the attention of German banking
circles.
They are at a loss to explain this
sudden and increasing demand, chiefly
by German and English bidders, for
the practically demonetized Russian
bank notes.
Some believe that British move
ment is on foot to propagate and lend
financial backing to a Russian mon
archical restoration. Others think it
is merely scheme on the part of a
number of smart spectators who hope
later to sell these valueless bank notes
at profit.

Screen detail

just another one of the research
chores of the movies: Paramount has
completed its collection of 1927 auto
mobile plates from the various states
of the union and is ready now to put
the right license plates on the cars
in any street scene, no matter where
the action of the story takes place.

leading milliners. They are close fit
ting as a rule and many of them are
cap-shaped, without brims.
Suzanne Talbot shows calfskin hats
with some of her new street costumes.
They are made in bird-like shapes
with ridges along the top of the
crowns and protruding front orna-
ments, giving them "chanticleer"
look.

SPORT SKIRTS SHOW
MANY BOX PLEATS

PARIS, R-Sport clothes may be
the step-children of the dressmakers
in Paris. But such as there are in the
winter collections have decided char
acteristics.
Skirts are usually box pleated or
circular, or both. Fullness has ten
dency to centralize in front and the
top of hens may be indicated-as they
are at Jean Patou's-by narrow
stitched bias band of contrasting ma
terial Many circular skirts of flannel
are shown with knitted sweaters. Belts
of suede or leather are worn, close to
the normal waistline, with most
sweaters.

Screen Life In Hollywood

HOLLYWOOD, Calif-Now that the
turmoil over Rupert Hughes spicy
biography of George Washington has
subsidized, box office oracles here are
awaiting with considerable interest
the release of Fred Thomson's screen
life of Jesse James.
Hughes, it will be recalled, described
Washington as a heavy drinker.
Thomson, who is an ordained clergy
man as well as western star, will
show film fans a Jesse James VINO
used neither liquor nor profanity, and
who was, instead of the cruel bandit
legend has made of him, the "dra-
matte victim" of that bitterness
which characterized reconstruction
days after the Civil war.

ERMINE COAT SHOWS
DESIGN OF STRASS

PARIS, P)-There is an ermine coat
with a Strass embroidered design on
the back in the winter collection of
Lucien Lelong It illustrates the
Partisan tendency to doctor ermine and
ornament, if not disguise it.
There are several lovely examples
of dyed ermine Innings for luxurious
satin evening wraps, and dyed ermine
collars on evening coats. But plain
ermine, unadorned, is little seen and
then only in small pelts used as cuffs
and collars on frocks.
The Lelong StrasS embroidered
ermine cape is the only one Paris has
seen so far.

There were three former directors

Americans Pay More
On French Diners

PARIS, P)-British frugality has
forced the dining car management on
trains between Paris and Dieppe to
reduce the price of meals.
For more than year the cost OF
slunch on the first-class train either
to or from liners between New York
and Cherbourg has been 25 francs,
($D, without wine. On the other
hand, the price of meals on trains De-
tween the same two cities where Amer
lean tourists are not the sole pasSen-
gers is 1872 francs
It has remained for the British to
force down prices between Paris and
Dieppe. Because there was little
patronage of the dining cars the COM
pany now offers a meal for 10 francs,
approximately 40 cents. 1t consists Of
soup meat and one vegetable, salad,
and dessert.

VELVET VESTS WORN
WITH SPORT SUITS

PARIS, lF9-One OF the touches that
makes winter sport clothes different
is the velvet vest or sleeveless jacket.
Sometimes it makes fourth piece to
a three-piece ensemble of skirt, sweater
and straight short jacket.
More often the velvet touch is a vest
or bolero worn over a one-piece dress
of jersey, flannel or silk. Above it is
a short jacket of the same material
as the dress.

The purple gallinule, as it's name
implies, has purple plumage. It's bill
