International Federation of Film Archives created in Paris The International Federation of Film Archives, which has just been created in Paris, promises
Film Archives, which has just been created in Paris, promises to be a most useful organization. Four Foundation Members are responsible for its creation : the National Cinema Library of the English Film Institute of London, the Film Library of the Reich in Berlin, the Film Library of the Museum of Modern Art in New York, and the French Film Library of Paris. Signing the accord were : Mme Laure Albin-Guillot, director of French photography and cinématography archives, for the Fine Arts Department of France, and MM. P. A. Harlé and Henri Langlois for the Cinémathèque Française ; Dr. Goebbels
and Henri Langlois for the Cinémathèque Française ; Dr. Goebbels and Herr Heusel for Germany; Mr. Harry Price and Miss Vaughan for England, and Mr. Whitley and Mr. Abbott for the United States. The purpose of the federation is to exchange historical, instructive and artistic films between the member countries. An international congress of film libraries will be held each year; in 1939 it will be held in New York, in 1940, in Berlin. Its seat is in Paris, at 2 rue de Montpensier, which forms part of the ancient Palais-Royal. Officers of the Federation are : Mr. Paul-Auguste Harlé

The most interesting of these tales is told. It seems that on one dark stormy night a French paymaster arrived at this inn, carrying bags of gold with which to pay the French officers at Saratoga. He never reached his final destination, and the men who set out to look for him could find no trace of him beyond the tavern. The
could find no trace of him beyond the tavern. The host protested that the paymaster had left his inn in good health, with his saddlebags strapped on as when he arrived. But murder will out, and long years after, when Canton Tavern was burned to the ground, a bleached skeleton was discovered in the ruins. Now, the old wives will tell you, when the valley is filled with mist a solitary horseman may be seen riding, his head lost in the fog. In this same state of Connecticut, near the old town of Lebanon Center, one passes a pile of
old town of Lebanon Center, one passes a pile of stones on a hillside near the road, and reads the gloomy words, “French Deserter’s Grave”. The story is not one of cowardice, however, but rather a tragic love tale. The romantically-minded say that the young French soldier was a nobleman serving as a private, and that he had fallen in love with a Colonial maiden, Prudence Strong. A strict army regulation made absence from camp after nightfall a crime equivalent to desertion, but the love-lorn soldier stole out to meet his lady. He was caught, tried and sentenced to death.
his lady. He was caught, tried and sentenced to death. Prudence Strong learned of her lover’s plight and rushed to the superior officers in an attempt to save his life. She was successful in obtaining a reprieve, but when the messenger arrived with it, the order had already been put into execution, and the young Frenchman had been shot before the eyes of his entire company.

If I answer with an unhesitating "Yes," it is because I feel that Paris in the cold months is an entirely different city from that which most American tourists know, and indeed I do feel that at that time it has more individuality than when it shows a more smiling
has more individuality than when it shows a more smiling face to the visiting throngs. Paris in the summer is a city of long days in which the light dies slowly; in which the shimmer of the hot streets is cut by the lace-work patterns made by the ever-present trees; and in which the outdoor life which centers under the brilliant parasols of the café terraces delights the stranger. But Paris in the winter presents quite as many attractions of a very different order. It is then a city etched in tones of gray, with all outlines softened. It is
in tones of gray, with all outlines softened. It is true that the sun shines rarely, but when it does it has a peculiar red brilliance that gives it a special quality. When it sinks in the early afternoon behind the steel framework of the Eiffel Tower, and the lights in the Place de la Concorde are already coming on, the effect is unreal, and the coloring, transcribed in a painting, would seem exaggerated. If you are not a hot-house flower, you will find your walks across the bridges of the Seine as stimulating in winter as in summer. The
the Seine as stimulating in winter as in summer. The river is now a dark threatening mass, swelled by the rains, and perhaps in answer to that threat, if it has been a particularly heavy rainy season, the pumps may be appearing at strategic points along the quais, ready to fight the floods. At the Pont de l’Alma, passers-by look anxiously over the parapet at the stone figures of the Zouaves, to see how high the river has risen about their legs, for they are the water-mark for all Paris. Now is the time of all others to enjoy the
Now is the time of all others to enjoy the brilliantly lighted shop windows of such famous streets as the rue de Rivoli, the faubourg Saint-Honoré, the rue Royale, the Avenue des Champs-Elysées, the Place Vendôme.

Now is the time to go to the museums, the Galleries Nationales, the Musée Rodin, the Musee Marmottan, the Louvre, and see the works of art in the best light. Now is the time for those who wish it to attend the theater, for Paris, like London, has a good season in the winter. Don't miss the Comédie-Française, nor the Théâtre de la Renaissance, where a number of the most interesting plays of the season are given.

at night. In the winter months, from November to the end of March or mid-April, all that life and gaiety is enclosed behind those great glass fronts which line the avenues and boulevards. Café life is not disappearing from Paris; it has never been more flourishing on the contrary. Perhaps some of us bewail the disappearance of the dimly lit, simply furnished, unpretentious places of old, but if you really want them you will still find several tucked away in sections of the Latin Quarter, in the corners of the Place des Vosges, in old streets opening off the Bastille.

Most of them have been refurbished, however, and are resplendent now with the glitter of new red leather and metal, and since the orchestras are coming back into favor.

now not only the innumerable museums, large and small, are open to you, but every week sees fifty new interesting opportunities. The scores of art galleries organize their individual expositions, Goyas or something equally fine appear at the Orangerie, the concert halls present the greatest masters of the voice, the instrument or the dance, the famous music-halls renew their spectacles for the Christmas season and the months to follow, with Mistinguett usually putting in her perennial and deservedly applauded appearance, the four great State Théâtres are in full swing, and a first-night happens several times a week. Only in an
a first-night happens several times a week. Only in an Exposition year can these things be so well enjoyed in summer as in winter. It used to be true that sight-seeing in Paris in the winter was almost out of the question, because conservative old French museums were so poorly lit that on dark days — and most days are dark at this season — sight-seeing became largely a matter of guesswork. Happily that has been greatly remedied, and now the treasures of the Cluny or the Carnavalet can be enjoyed with ease. If sightseeing out of the city is
