Great crowds went calmly about their business or pleasure. Tne high morale of the French women is striking. They simply won't be downhearted. They still keep the dressmakers busy. New gowns are to be seen every, where. True, these dresses are much more sober m color than the frocks of peace times, but they are new and smart. It is for these women the poUus are fighting their country's i>attle — and it is these women who keep up the high morale of the French soldiers.
