‘Dther Channel Aspirants Visit £ Her at Cape Gris-Nez. Out of Coffee. s BY GERTRUDE EDERLE. By Cable to The Stat.. ! CAPE GRIS-NEZ, France, July 14.—Before the Semmer is over I ex- pect to have the Honor of entertaling ¢tach and every one of the swimmers who are training .along: this French coastal strip for an attempt to swim the dreaded English Cbannel. At one time or another every trans. channel aspirant visits Cape Gris-Nez. Yesterday brought over M. Perrault, the French-Panaman,’ who {s train- ing at Dunkirk for his effort. With him came Mme. Jane Sion, who has tried channeling unsuccessfully three times, but who is still game despite these failures. She, too, is training at_DunRirk. Mme." Sion 18 ‘a’ haridsome ‘womah, very big and blond, who wears her naturally ourly hair under a net. A damp day malkes her Shead very at- tractive, the curls taking on little ringlets all over her crown of; glory. Boyish Cut Becoming. T envy her mightily, for it's all 1 can do to persuade a single wave to stay in my hair, no matter how much I may. coax. it,with a comb. while it is still wet. Some people here, seeing me emerge from the walc with my soaking hair slicked om- my forehead and off my ears, “have suggested that my hair should be cut in the latest Pari- sian fashion:that is extremely This, they say, would be Ing to me, but I think I would appear far too boyish, I have been noted for my mannish shaulders and carriage, an naturally I want to keep my hair over my ears, and remain as feminine as possible. - s st - There is sadness in our gang over the fact all the American -coffee we brought along. from home has been used up. - We.d4ised the last for break- fast yesterday. This situation does not particularly affect me, as I sel- dom drink ‘céffee, but all the others do and they heartily dislike the thick black stuff the anch people. call ooffee. Percolator Is In Dem-nd ‘We haye, our own percolator, which we brought from home. ' Such a con- trivance is unknown here and several Americans whom we have met since our arrival begged-us to let them have the percolator when we go home. I think we:ghallvhave to hold a lottery to decide Wwhith' of those requesting it is to be the lucky one. Julia Herpmam, ‘my chaperon and manuensis, who in private: life is Mrs. Westbrook Pegler, is in Paris on business and I shall go to Boulogne today to.'theet her, as will most of the rest of our party. She planned to try to get some. American coffee in Paris and if she falls, pop and sis- ter Margaret, anjong others, will be vastly disappointed. To mak¢ upito some: extent for the coffee famine, I'm planning to pre- ?n some mushrooms for breakfast. 'hey should prove a welcome ‘change from the eggs of which we 4ll are wvery tired. Most Freneh people get only a bread @nd coffes “breakfast, but 'when u.mE Inhthey told us we could have an ish breakfast fim extra. An English Ifl'mtg ing to the French:.idea, consists. .of eggs. Now we all blush at the sight of a chidliéen, because they must be working overtime to supply us here. (Copyright. 1036.) DS, Seine:et-Oise Department, Franee, July 14 (#).—Charles R.
