"People have said so much about
the style of the French women. the

much better than the average Am-

American women.
."Tho trafficdnlihc cities of both
France and-England is vsry- poorly
regulated. The congestion on the
Strand and Piccadilly in Loudon is
terrible. They are tryingnow to
imitate some of our methods to pre-
vent such trouble in crowded streets.
The rule there is to keep on the left
side of the road. and as you ride
along in a car you feel as though
you were going to bunlp something;

In France. the plays at the thea-
ters are more risque. than in Ameri-
ca. But in England. they are very
conservative. American plays such
as ”The Music‘ Box Revue." "So
This is London." and "Little Mary
Kelly." when put on in London then-
tors are scarcely recognizable. The
English are satisfied with a less dc-
grec of the spectacular art. with less
elaborate scenery and costuming,
but this does not mean less finish
in the acting. And so. after seeing
plays in Europe I have come back
to with a greater appreciation of
the finished product as we see it here
in America.
“The ocean trip going over was
very delightful. But on the return

“Norwalk. Connecticut. is known

through thc pretty town of Rummy-

count of tire trouble. so we 'made
use of the time to look around. In
one of the fields we saw a. huge mo-
dern factory. women were waving
the elastic which is used in corsets.
They told us that they had an order
from the 11.8.: G. factory of Nor-
walk. Norwalk is known especially
for its tires. corsets, locks. and hats
sold over there.
"Although I cannot speak French
I had no difficulty anywhere we
went. because there was always
someone who could speak and un-
derstand English. Even in that little
town of Romilly. one of the girls in
the factory could do the interpret-

“it is an acknowledge fact that

sed the growth of the city village to
its present size. Mr. Hayes was asked
by the Evening Sentinel to descrlbo
t’le growth of Norwalk over a petiod
of the post fifty years. This is his
story.
"in 1870 the borough or town of
Norwalk was a. quaint old countlv
