rants:
“Here French is spoken; if you
speak another language speak softly.,f
It is explained that the quarter be
come very popular recently with thou
sands of students and others from all
the countries of Central Europe, and
that the restaurants, particularly, have
become a perfect babel of tongues.
The annual election of officers of
the Seward Athletic Ciub will be
held September 1.
Life preservers are being made in
Germany from the pith of the sun

four times lighter than the hair of
reindeer and eight times lighter
than cork.

SUED mu SIX YEARS
! FOR FEW CENTS TAX
PARIS, Aug.. 13. (/P)~An 83- cen- j
| time lawsuit has been going on near
ly six years in France and the end is
not yet in sight. This sum is about ’
3 3-4 cents.
Millions of francs have been spent,
! courts have been occupied for weeks j
at a time and the best lawyers in the
world have argued on both sides.
i Marcel Boyer, a well-known “chan
sannier,” conducting a sort of liter
ary cabaret in the Latn Quater, start
ed the judicial row by refusing to
I pay a disputed extra tax on two tick
ets he g^ve to an old war comrade.
Boyer, seeing the soldier at his box J
■office, promptly passed him in, hand-i
ing the four francs to the cashier as
the government tax on reduced
price tickets. The government in
spector demanded 83 centimes more
because, he said, Boyer did not go
through the formality of buying the
low priced' tickets from the box of
fice.
Decisions of all sorts have been
handed down, some courts holding
one way and some another but al
ways leaving unsettled some tech
nality that caused new trials. These
rehearings then went to other juris- j
dictions. The case has travelled
pretty well over central France
since it started, November 27,1921.
Cottage cheese tastes better from
the sanitary FRYE BRFHN shop.
