He says: “To my personal knowledge the last automobile show filled from 10,00Q to 12,000 rooms in the hotels, and these people all came from the outside with money to spend. They left inte rview published in ‘real estate?” Paris find Grand Palais t pany thousands of people and many millions of francs to the general trade of the city every month in the year.

Our | ‘natural advantages are great, but they will not suffice to hold pre- | i eminence in trade if combated by an opposing energy and enterprise Hy more intelligently directed than our own, They must be developed if and exploited with as much force and judgment as are those of any if ~port that competes. But we know that with due industry we can surcly ‘hold our own, while no competitor can ever have such assurance. Therefore to Boston the suggestion of President Mellen can hardly mean any- thing more than a dream of commercial optimism. But in New York ®t ought to prompt to action. D SCHOOL BOARD EFFICIENCY. PON the discussion of the comparative efficiency of the Board of Education under the present law the Bureau of Municipal Research points out that if inefficiency exists it cannot be justly attributed to defects in the law since the charter | gives the Mayor ample power of removal in the case of any member-of the Board that may be guilty of official misconduct, neglect of duty, conduct that tends to discredit his office, or mental or physical disability. ‘The argument is that the real difficulty lies in the lack of any | Gefinite standard of what a school commissioner ought to know about .echools and echool teachers.

They pledged themselves to abjure love and not even to speak to any woman in all that time. Biron, one of the three who had sworn to follow the King into this monk-like seclusion, repented of his oath as soon as it was taken, He loved gayety and idleness, and he had the gift of attracting women's attention. To such a man the idea of a three-year retirement from the world was anything but pleasant. Yet, as the King would not release Biron from the promise, the luckless courtier prepared to make the best of it. AND TELL MOTHER Lan.
