PARIS HAS EVOLVED
INTO PROVINCIAL CITY
PARIS, July 10.—(Correspondence
of The Associated Press*—Paris now,
"Paris has become quite French,” de
clared a lately-arrived American. “I
never heard so much French spoken
in Paris before.”
In fact, as a result of the continu
ance of war, Paris to the foreigner
seems, if it is not so in reality, for
the first time since 1870 to be truly
and obviously Gallic, to have put off
its harlequinade costume of cosmopol
itanism, its glittering tinsel and gar
ish night-light; and to have put on
the more simple and sober dress of
! an earlier and less luxury-loving age.
Paris has become, in a word, pro
vincial, chiefly owing to two causes—
the absence of the tourist and the de
cline in traffic. The city is far less
crowded and bustling than usual. The
diapason of all the notes in the hum
of a great city’s population busy
about its daily occupations is lowered
to what is almost a murmur; the hoot
I of the taxi-hom is heard less fre
quently, and, the “barkers” at the
j shows along the boulevards have
ceased to bark; “Want a guide, sir?”
is now never, or hardly ever heard.
The newsboy’s yell is sternly repren
! sed by the police.
The tourist element of Paris is all
j but entirely wanting. Before the war,
i especially at this season, tourists
were to be met with in all quarters of
the city, a very considerable portion
of them Germans; now the compara
tively small number of strangers here
are chiefly those on business in con
nection with war contracts, and, of
course, mostly men.
The almost total disappearance of
the private automobile is another
thing that cannot fail to strike the
visitor of today. Dublin was describ
ed by Lady Mary Montague as the
“car-drivingest city in the world.”
Paris, for some few years before the
war, could with propriety be describ
ed as the automobile-drivingest city
in Europe. Besides the vast variety
of cars owned by Paris residents
there was always a stream of more
less high-powered and luxurious tour
ist automobiles passing through on
their way to Brittany with its well
known seaside summer resorts, to
Normandy and to Touraine with their
historic castles, or still further afield,
right through the middle of France,
down to Biarritz and the Riviera.
This traffic has completely ceased. In
its stead one sees hardly anything but
slate-colored motor wagons, red-cross
automobiles, or the ordinary taxicab.
Taxicabs are now hardly numerous
enough to meet the inhabitants’ ordi
nary wants. This dearth of taxicabs
is intensified by the stoppage, ever
since the war began, of the convenient
and rapid system of motor busses
i plying to and from all parts of Paris.
They were requisitioned immediate
ly war began and are reported to
have done yeoman’s service in trans
ferring men and Stores at and just be
hind the front.
One means of transport, however,
seems to be as popular as ever—the
‘bateau-mouches” (boats-as-big-as-a
fly) wHich ply along the Seine from
Charenton, by the Louvre, the Place
de la Concorde, Passy and Anteuil, as
far as Bellevue, St. Cloud and Sures
nes. With the summer weather they
are more crowded than in time of
peace nor is it surprising to find it so
as the voyage of some seven or eight
miles, much of it through pretty
i scenery, costs little more than five
cents.
