Montparnasse is a la mode and Incontéstably the most cosmopoli- tan quarter of Paris today. It is the playground for foreigners and the French come to watch the for- eigners at play. The whole length of the boule- vard from Montparnasse station to | the Observatory is lined with cafes and night clubs. The section occu- pied by the celebrated and once artist-haunted cafes, Dome, Rotonde and Select, offers a blaze of lights and movement at night unrivalled anywhere else in the city. New Cate Openod To the old favorites has been add- ed a vast cafe and restaurant call- ed the Coupole, pretentious scale than the others, There are still as many people at the older cafes and yet the enormous Coupole swarms like a bee-hive. All the night-clubs have been repaired and furnished upon this highway of gaiety. 6 “Montparnasse has no rivals just now,” remarks the newspaper Par- 3-Midi. “Fashion has settled upon its cafes. Hordes of tourists swarm upon them, coeming from ail quar- ters of the city. They are at home there and their ease is extraor- dinary, not to say brazen.” The Tower of Babel had nothing on Montparnasse. Jargons of every corner of the globe are heard there. Argentines, Russians, Scandinavians, Poles, Chinese, Turks, Bolivians, Bulgarians, Africans, Hindoos, Eng- lish, 8panish, Italian and so on. And in the course of two nights at the Dome one may hear every accent of the 48 United States. With the invasion of the tourist, | the artist who gave these cafes t first celbrity has taken to the bac woods like the spiritual redskin that he is. Painters and writers and musicians are hiding in the quarters near the near the fortifications er in the shabby, unpretentious streets elose to the Avenue d’'Orleans and the Avenue Du Maine. They have been replaced by the secondhand esthete, on a much more r| and inclination the gentleman | group of post.card writers, over whose shoulders one sees the “Dear Mama” or “Dear Ded” “we are in the artist's quarters tonight."” Remain Out All Night All these specimens of humanity swarm on the boulevard from eight ©'clock in the evening until four in the morning. Montparnasse runs on | the American plan. It begins its fes- tivities earlier than the rest of the world. Just before the first bus loads of tourists arrive, the “bohem- ians” appear as if they had been d to come out on schedule. Ta: honk, the lights blaze, talk centinues in a subdued roar, the guide shouts his speech, and Bo- | hemia furnishes the more or less continuous eabaret. Montparnasss has net yet develep- ed the flourishing ‘underworld"” that thrives in Montmartre or on the Grand Boulevards. There are few, etty “dancers” on the terraces or in the cabarets and their escorts are discreet. The furtive guide exists only in embryo. ‘French people are increasingly fond of this infant Bohemia. The particular kind of revelry found ere is not what they consider rench,” but it amuses them. They are learning to like it so well that all ontmartre is remarking the decline {in business. The terraces of Mont. | parnasse have emptied some of the | oldest and best maintained restau- | rants and cafes on the Right Bank. Thesa terraces are very informal, casy-going places. Friends hail friends. Talk goes on from group to | 8roup over the heads of other grups. | People change tables and places pretty much as they like. As night goes on, the tables push further and | turther along the sidewalks, the service gets slower and the coffee and beer worse, people grow noisier and noisier, until high-water mark |is reached about midnight and there is not a single seat left for late. comers.

There is matter for every taste in the variety of these cafes.
