PARIS REVISITED DURING
THE WAR. ·
THE CHANGES OF FORTY YEARS.
[BY BIN THOMAS BARCLAY IN THE "EVENING STANDARD"]
Pagis, Juno 15th, 1915. Forty years ago. I paid my first visit to Paris. Among ray luggage was an immense trunk containing the books I considered indispensable for work I had in band The cabanan could not move it-the concierge, an Alsatian giant, would not, and a little Parisian walkman, seeing the dilemma, throw away his cigarette, shouldered the trunk, and deposited it in the courtyard. In the usual English way, I offered him a Frane, but he glared at ine, "Pour qui ne prenes-vous, monsieur ?" My knowledge of the French language and French character was too imperfect to put the matter straight with nativo skill. I muttered soine awkward excase, and I still have that spirited little Frenchman's indignation on my conscience. It was the first revelation to me that French might be different from English character.

gradually completed. Even from the masses THE ANTI-GERMAN UNION, of the wounded men who are unfit for further Tollitary service, the ranks of labour are being refilled, and one can hardly realise that the nost dreadful war the world has ever seen in raging so sear.
And so it is with mankind! The peasants in the war area are getting so accustomed to the presence of danger that they do their daily toil in the fields mid the thunder of cannon and the hissing of the projectiles, as if these were the velons of Nature. And Paris, my beautiful faris, is as bright and of fresli in all the loveliness of the month joy and hope as over. Even the wounded soldiers basking in the sun or hobbling on sticks along the lumps Elysees have a hugh and a joke for ch ther and yet the energy is barely fifly miles away 1

A few steps farther, and I came upon a Keene of startling devastation. Paris had recovered from the siege. I had seen nothing but gaiety and brilliant vitality thus far but there was a scene of the wildest chaos-. beyond the hoarding along wide gulf; on either side half-demolished houses, with their tiny rooms, bedraggled wallpapers and sinoke-steamed fire-plures, huge props pro venting the collapse of still standing strue- tares, etc. It was a scene of devastation. No, it was not the consequerice of war, but the scene of demolition of a quarter through which now runs one of Paris' most beautiful streets: the Avenue de l'Opéra. A few hundreds of feet to the east of it, however, stood the sheds for the rebuilding of the burat-down Hotel de Ville, and a few hun- dred paces west the gaping skeleton of the Pulace of the Tuilerica-not work of destruc tion by the present ruthless enemy, but that of the Commune: of a frenzied section of the half-starved and "énervée" population of a great city emerging from the privations and terrors of a long siege. It was difficult four: years Inter to realise what all this guy throng had suffered.
THE REBUILDING OF PARIS.
The ruins of the Tellerica were removed, gardens book their place, and now, from the Arc de Triomphe, the view stretches un- ohecked over the most beautiful avenue in the world, across the Place de la Conconte and the Tuileries Gardens into the very quad- rangle of the grand old pile of the Louvre.
Since then many other great avenues have been driven through the tall old houses and narrow streets of the great capital. Even the historic Sorbonne has been replaced by a modern structure, and I still hear my late friend, Jules Simon, in his falsetto voice ex- pressing his sorrow at the disappearance of the old class-rooms and staircase with steps worn into a state of dangerous unevenness by the feet of a hundred generations of French students--class-rooms in which have sat all
