France is not a fertile field for a

makes the American heart beat any

Your American loses interest in
the bicycle shortly after he learns
to ride without touching hands to
the handlebars, which usually is
at about the age of 10 or IL.
Soccer never has commanded any

Even the conductor, a sadeyed
gentleman with side whiskers, sigh

from the waist Of his sweetheart in

was crowded eight degrees past ca

pairs of lovebirds who acted as If

unity TO young love embarrassed
me no end-I felt l had no business
