"Once today when we stoped to look at a map a Frenchman stopped and politely asked in fair English if he could direct us anywhere. The wait- resses in the restaurants politely wish you 'Bon Jour* or 'Bon Soir, Monsie- urs' as you go out, and say 'Merci' on as slight provocation as the English say 'thank you.'

In his last letters. written before leaving London Mr .Swain tells of the railroad strike which tied up that na- tion for a short time, and which it was fzared' at first would delay the expedi-' t: n. Strike Comes Suddenly "The strike came up like a thunder' shower," he says, "on only two or three days notice." "The strikers have apparently been taken by surprise by the extent and efficentcy of the motor truck service that the government has put at work almost over night. "When you see the statement that about 1000 of these brought in milk and vegetables to Hyde Park last night' from distances up t'o 25 or 30, or even 50 miles,-and that many of these are three ton trucks while the ordinary English freight car caries but eight tons, you all see the railroads have a formidable con-petitor. No Food Shortage "During this period there was no shortage of food or gasoline, though meals were rationed. A rise in prices was impossible beca'use of the fixed prices prevailing on many articles and in other cases due to the force of public opinion. Gasoline in London sells at about 68 cents per gollon." Of his visit to Westminister Abbey Mr. Swain says, "Architecturally speaking, the interior is Gothic. The shifting ,of light as daylight lessens was most interesting. It is' not 'very well lighted, but this only adds effect. There is undoubtedly a strong sensuous and emotional appeal in vast, dim, echoing spaces, glow of stained glass, and the reverberating roll of organ music." Nibny Bound for India "I spent . tlhe afternoon strolling around two or three parks, chiefly watching the ' human picture book- amitated. The British "Tommy" has the some tendency toward "two-ness" -the lights were fine. The smoke,' clouds; and hate of London air have given me quite a new attitude toward some of Whistley's paintings In many cases he didn't paint the excep- tional, but just the usual things in his out door pictures." Engines go to Waste The first letter from Paris, recieved Friday, contains the details of the journey from London by rail and boat. Traveling through France the party "passed various abandoned can- tonments (British); the track was paralled by trenches for long dis- tances near Amiens, and at the latter the station and freight warehouses had evidently been wrecked by air bombs or shells. saw probably two dozen locomotives, quite opparently built in the U. S. A., rusting on side tracks- don't know the explanation." "Officials were extremely courteous and examined scarcely anything after Professor Kelsey's explanation." Later when . he went to the chief of the customs bureau "passed everything bodily-didn't have to open one." Having visited Paris some 20 yerars ago, Mr. Swain finds but little change in the city, though old vihicles have been replaced by ,newer, more mod- ern methods of getting about. At present only about- one third of the street lights are being used, there be- ing a shortage of coal in the country. Commenting on the stores, he re- marks, "More than ever do I think the Paris shop windows the finest I have seen anywhere." "Down by the Seine I saw the Eiffel tower rising almost Mace-like against the briliantly illluminated banks of of clouds at sunset." 'Visiting Norte Dame cathedral he found. changes changes there nesessitated by the war. "One thing is both bad and good-the glass of the huge rose window on the south was taken out during the war, and only a third peplaced as wet.
