and all night to get there they dawdle along in ones and twos at night our street is quieter than a cemetery paris is going modern we found a lovely little cafeteria where we had afternoon tea the peo ple seem to be very well dress ed well fed and apparently happy just how they do it with wages 100 a month and butter 1 a lb is too much for me well we left paris and went to amiens what a horrid place the sanitation is not up to much we finally found one old chap who spoke a little english horsemeat for sale rows of houses about 12 feet apart the road was a ditch of stagnant water bombing in the last war had done a lot of damage but better buildings may eventually arise the ca thedral has gone sadly down hill pigeon dirt is all over the stone floors it badly needs renovation but i guess the poor souls cant find the money ve got to arras but could not get out of the station and nobody understood where we wanted to go we finally got to the war graves commission the registrar and his secre tary spoke english and were a great help to us we hired a taxi and drove around for four hours to see the british and canadian war cemeteries i cannot find words to exipress my admiration for the splendid way in which the commission takes care of the british and canadian cemeteries it is sim ply grand the first one we went to had 250 known and s00 unknown dead the stones are 3 inches thick 15 inches wide and 33 inches high they are portland stone and very porous so they look very old i reckon they will be readable for 15 or 20 years more and by that time everybody contempo rary with the boys will have passed on anyway a firm in paris has taken a contract to polish up the stones by an em ery process which makes them look like new the stones do not face the east they face every way of

yours at once ontario department of highways wt hon j35 n allan minister cause i am trying to finish the french part of our trip the french cemeteries are kept up nearly as well as the british but class distinction shows up in the french graveyards and not in the british every stone is the same for officers and privates a huge german cemetery just outside arras covers about 115 acres it is an awful sight but for the big trees in it it would be a lot worse no grass no stones just dirty chalk and wooden crosses some upright and some lying sideways they are only 7 inches in the ground anyone could pull them all up with one hand small galvan ized tablets about 3 by 1 have the unreadable names each cross is for two men buried head to head the french govt has the responsibiity of caring for it but they dont seem to take their job very seriously i met an old disabled french veteran who has the job of car ing for a small german ceme tery at tilloy near anas his job is done much better he has allowed grass to grow and it will eventually tecome sodded of its own accord i found oiilv one stone to a veteran of world war ii the next day i went down to the area around cambrai looking for a woodbridge boy killed there on sept 25 1018 nobody spoke a word of english and i had an awful job finding him but 1 did eventually or rather my wife did the little ceme tery contained 107 graves and every one of them fell between sept 25 and oct 8th lf18 nearly all of them on oct 1st it must have been an awful biack diy for the princess pats we went to vmy we were conducted down into the dug outs
