CAFES IN PARIS DISPLAY

Drinking Rooms Decorated With
Products of Painters md

By the Associated Press
PARIS. July 5.-The Paris cafe has
adopted art as side line.
Exhibitions of young painters and
sculptors are becoming settled prac-
tice in many cafes, and one drinking
room proprietor has turned over the
walls of three rooms to this purpose.
The practice started after the war.
in the Montparnasse district, where
many Americans and other foreigners
study. Artists. their friends, admirers
and prospective customers enjoyed the
convenience of looking at pictures
while drinking.
sympathetic innkeepers have long
made a practice of permitting artists
to pay their accounts occasionally by
decorating the walls with their brushes
and paints.
