There should be few complaints about 1955
business. It has been better than the forecasters
predicted
One of our grievances against this past winter
was the lick it got in against the peach crop in
several states
Community spirit is not necessarily that do
good front exhibited by the publicity hounds in
each community.
The climate of this community is unexcelled,
and wherever you go natives of the area make
the same assertion
The (Forsyth County News is ready to talk ad

we don”t mean charity either

Predctions of recession are not welcome pre

It is easy enough to tell somebody else what

The primary business of Cumming is tto pro

We know of no one who ever regretted read

I understand what you mean
whan you say it’s been more diffi
cult than usual to obtain transpor
tation for your forthcoming trip to
France. This spring I have seen
more Americans than ever before,
even in the most out-of-the-way
places. But you needn’t worry. No
matter when you get here, even if
it is in the fall, some of the 350
French seaside resorts along the
2,000 miles of coast from Flanders
to the Riviera will have sun and
fun for you.
This summer the North Sea, Eng
lish Channel, and Atlantic beaches,
with their white, broad stretches of
sand and gently sloping shores will
welcome the vacationing French
and travelers from many countries.
Le Touquet is the natural center
for this northern group of seaside
resorts. On the channel there is
Deauville with luxury hotels, ca
sinos, and sports from horse racing
to regattas. This contrasts with the
simplicity of little villages farther
west like Arromanches, Courseulles
and Vierville; once better known
under the names of Port Winston,
Utah, and JOmaha beaches where
the D-Day "landings of 1944 took
place. In nearby Concarneau there
will be a double celebration August

Riviera reverie along the Mediterranean
Nets” and its 50th anniversary.
Spring and- autumn, as well as
summer, are wonderful on the
Basque coast. Within walking dis
tance of elegant Biarritz there are
serene Basque villages nestled in
the Pyrenees. And from December
through October, the Riviera on
the tideless Mediterranean sparkles
with flower battles, festivals, and
aquatic sports. In the latter half of
September we can attend the great
International Fair at Marseilles.
But I love the coasts mostly be
cause of the tremendous variety
of ancient and picturesque fishing
villages, bustling ports, and out-of
the-way beaches ideally safe for
bathing yet seemingly unspoiled by
man's interference. Often the quiet
est and least pretentious places may
be found quite near the most fash
ionable and luxurious resorts. It is
even more true in France that the
best things in life are free. And the
same pure air, sea salt, and fresh
invigorating breezes are ours to en
joy no matter where we stay.
So let me know your schedule as
soon as possible. I’ll meet you in
Biarritz, as we planned, and from
there we can move on together to
the Riviera. Until then,
A bientot,
