Paris dispatches tell of the uncom

press to the alleged lack of beauty In
the thirty Kentucky school teachers
who are tourlqg Europe under the au
spices of Henry, Watterson's newspa
per. This Is the quick retort of. ,tJio
French to Mr. Rockefeller's comment
on the size of French women's feet.
It Is apparent, however, that the
French have mistaken a mere handful
the real American girl. Through
curious error, they have mistaken thir

la no reflection on these thirty
to say that primarily they make' no
pretensions to beauty. They are liv
ing witnesses to the fact that other
qualities besides beauty weigh with the
Kentuckians. Mr. Watterson threw
open the polls to all of his Kentucky
fellow cltlsena and asked them, by
their ballots, to select the thirty
school marmi" who enjoy the great
est popularity In the community where
they preside over the rod and the
'rlthmetlc. It la not surprising that
some of the elect are not distinguished
by great facial charm or entrancing
outline of figure. Qualities of heart
and mind entered Into the competition,
sweetness of disposition and strength
of character. 1
Thus,selected, the thirty embarked
orf their travels. Theli-'approaeh was
heralded In Paris, but before they ar
rived Mr. Rockefeller’s remarks on the
site of the French women's feet were

Sad Tsst of French Gallantry,
It la clear that the French do not
appreciate merit. It Is also clear that
the French are unable to distinguish
between beauty and popularity. And
It Is similarly clear that French gal
lantry Is not Impervious to an honest
criticism that strikes home.
Americana will be glad td learn that
the school marms are going about their
business without paying any attention
to the sensation they are creating, nnd
are even broad-minded enough to find
some things in Faria to excite their
admiration. It may dawn upon the
French mind Anally that they are real
