luscious specimens for which the varying climates of the United States are responsible, still the mounds of yellow lemons, golden tangerines and tawny oranges from the région of the Côte d’Azur do their best to uphold the nation’s reputation. Not that you need feel you are losing an opportunity to learn your daily lesson in Parisian history by taking this occasion to visit a popular institution, for fact and fiction are mingled in the legends that group around the Halles and their neighboring streets — ten centuries have been busy in this quarter, and the folk lore is that much richer for them. They say, for example, that originally the markets were “Les Ailes” without an H for everyone “Y allait”, that is, went there. But since even in the year 1000 there were some covered stalls, that is undoubtedly one of the fictions. That year 1000, by the way, which is our first record of this center of edibles, was that predicted by the soothsayers as the end of the World — one can readily understand that the superstitious beliefs of the day did not tend to make very ample provision for the table that year!

Among these is A Q 9 in a side suit, when declarer is playing a trump contract. If he can place his opponents in a position in which they can lead no other suit, then lead toward the A Q 9 combination, he is assured of two tricks whether the King lies over the Queen or not. For by playing the nine he forces his left-hand opponent into the lead, and is assured of the next lead being into his major tenace; while if the Jack or ten is played before him, he can finesse the Queen and if that finesse loses he still has the Ace and nine, with nothing but the single remaining honor outstanding. At times, when the throw-in play is indicated, there still remains some work for declarer before he can be sure it will succeed. North, Dealer, Neither side vulnerable.

South wishes to show his powerful holding immediately, though the response of two diamonds would also force North to rebid. North has a rebiddable suit, but wants to show a minimum hand. South rebids diamonds before showing clubs, to give North a picture of the difference in strength of the two suits. Despite his minimum bid, North’s five-notrump response is forced when he holds two Aces and his partner makes a conventional four-notrump bid. Now South gives a choice of suits for the Slam. North chooses diamonds; this is not a bid, but a preference indication.

Then the ten of diamonds was led, and dummy’s Jack overtook it. This put dummy in the lead to play a fourth round of hearts. South ruffed, and all the diamonds and hearts had been eliminated from his opponents’ hands. The stage was now set for the throw-in. South took the spade King and led to the spade Ace. On the Queen of hearts, now established, he discarded his little club. The contract could not be lost. A club lead from dummy allowed South to play the nine. West won with the King, but could not lead a spade without giving declarer a ruff-and-discard, nor a club without spoiling the value of his King. The play of the hand was beautiful; the only criticism possible is directed at East, who should have put up the Jack of clubs on the club lead from dummy. This would not have stopped the Slam, of course, since South’s A Q 9 was the perfect holding against all adverse combinations of cards. Hand of Tomorrow South, Dealer, North and South vulnerable.

ARC DE TRIOMPHE Place de l’Étoile (interior open all seasons daily from 10 to 5 p. m.). Constructed by Napoléon I according to plans made by Chalgrin.

On Nov. 11, 1920, the Unknown Soldier of France was buried here. BASTILLE COLUMN This vast square was formerly occupied by the most celebrated of state prisons, the first stone having been laid in 1370. Can be visited every day except Monday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. THE BOURSE Certainly, the most animated part of Paris from noon to 3 p. m. Can be visited easily after the closing of the markets between 3 and 4 o’clock. VENDÔME COLUMN In the Place Vendôme; has a height of 145 feet.

Very fine bas-reliefs by Rodebert, representing battle scenes. The Vendôme Column Paris could, with reason, be called a “museum city”. There is a museum on almost every street; further, many of the streets themselves could be classified as “outdoor museums”. We provide here with an incomplete list of the historic structures to be found in Paris: all of them are well worthy of a visit. Some of them recall noble events; others pay tribute to French heroism — on the battlefield, in the laboratory, and in other realms of human endeavor. ÉCOLE DES BEAUX-ARTS Located at 14 rue Bonaparte. This site was formerly occupied by the Couvent of Little Augustines, constructed by Queen Marguerite, first wife of Henri IV. The present palace was begun in 1820. Can be visited on Sundays from noon to 5 p. m. ECOLE MILITAIRE 43, Avenue de la Motte-Picquet. Constructed in 1752 and founded by Louis XV to receive 500 sons of poor gentlemen who had perished in battle. Napoléon Bonaparte was a student here. The building is due to the genius of Gabriel.

Remains of the church of St. Jacques de Boucherie (Ninth century) which was destroyed in 1797. The present tower dates back to 1522 and was near the south portal of the church. It is 175 feet high. Pascal used it for his experiments to determine the weight of the air; his statue is under the arch VIEUX LOUVRE No explanation exists for the name of the Louvre. The oldest part existing today is the square courtyard, discovered in 1863 when excavations were made at this point. Constantly enlarged by French monarchs, the Louvre became a veritable palace under Francis I. The west and north wings were terminated under Henri II and decorated by Jean Goujon. The “New Louvre” comprises the section on the rue de Rivoli built by Visconti and Lefuel from 1852 to 1857. The Pavillon de Marsan was reconstructed in 1878 by Lefuel. THE PANTHEON Place du Panthéon (daily from 10 to 4, except on Monday). Within the crypt are the tombs of Rousseau, Voltaire, Soufflot, Lamarque, Lazare and Sadi Carnot, Marceau, Victor Hugo, Emile Zola, Berthelot, Jean Jaurès, etc. (Can be visited every day except Monday 10 to 5 o’clock).

Dates back to the days of Richelieu; constructed in 1627 by Jacques Le Mercier on the site where the College of Robert de Sorbon once stood; the college was founded in 1253. From 1885 to 1900 Nenot reconstructed the Sorbonne and enlarged it. Now used as the seat of the University of Paris. GATES OF ST. DENIS AND OF ST.

No other country in the world offers, in so limited a space, every aspect of nature, and what is true in space is equally true in time. One might truly say that, on this favoured soil, each of the great European civilizations wished to leave one of its masterpieces. In Dordogne, the most ancient vestiges of man have been found; in Brittany, the finest array of megalithic monuments; in Provence, survive the most charming Roman cities. In Chartres, Rheims, Amiens and Rouen, Gothic architects built their most beautiful cathedrals. It is in Paris and Versailles that the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries have left the most exquisite reflection of their taste. In France, the grandeur of memories mingles with the beauty of its monuments and the grâce of its scenery.

Would you rather go on a literary pilgrimage ? Here is the rustic dwelling, still intact, where Corneille, on that stone table, wrote Le Cid; here is the little Parisian house where Balzac worked, the terrace where Flaubert shouted out the sentences of Madame Bovary, in order to make them more perfect, the country where Proust spent his childhood, and the hawthorn bushes he described. Are you studying modern art ? You will recognize, not far from Paris, the landscapes painted by Manet, Monet, Renoir, Sisley, Pissaro: you will find again in Montparnasse the atmosphère in which fauvism and cubism were born; you will discover at the Opéra, alive, the dancing girls of Degas; and at the corner of a road in a hollow, the houses that served as models for Cezanne... Are you simply travelling for pleasure ? France is a country where the art of good living has always been skillfully studied. The composition of your meals, the choice of your wines, the originality of the regional dishes will delight you. Everywhere you will observe the mingling of ancient civilization and modern activity. Each region pleases the visitor by the characteristics peculiar to
