Gay Paree Not Quite Open,
But Certain
and Girls Dance With Yanks
War Time Regulations Gradually Disappearing and
Cafes, Restaurants and
Greatly Pleasing American Officers and Dough
boys Seeking Gay Night
Paris. Peace is not yet with us.
out tne man who loves hysterical,
hectic nights is beginning to come
into his own.
The war-time regulations that
smothered some of the gayest lights
ot the night lite of eav Paree are
gradually, but very gradually, dis
appearing. Cafes, restaurants and
bars may soon be open until 11:30
m.t whereas the closing time
throughout the war was 9:30. Or
chestras are beginning to tune up
in the big restaurants for the first
time since the war. and oubhc danc
ing and cabaretin will be resumed
hortly without tear of interference
by the police.
All this is of mild interest to the
average Parisian citizen, who, far
from being a boulevard bounder,
generally subways home to his fam
ly hearth every night. But it fairlv
palpitates the hearts of the joy boys,
who prefer to be lulled to sleeo bv
the chirp of the early rising sparrows
tor the night life of Pans, like
the night life of London and New
York,, depends largely for its exist
ence on the presence of the out-of
cityites. And American officers and
doughboys on leave, not to mention
various attaches of foreign peace
delegations, help swell the transient
good-timer proposition by several
thousands.
Gloom for Months.
The pestiferous police have driv
en much of the joy out of the Paris
night life for many moons. Some
folks thought that the signing of
the armistice would bring a letting
down of the bars. It did for just
three days. The restaurants were
permitted to remain open until .11:30
and the "agents" winked at night
dancing. But is was all over in three
days.
There began a revival in Decem
ber. Old night-life resorts in Mont
martre began reopening, and the
word went downtown that Mont
martre was getting gay again. The
crowds began flocking out, and it
was a slow night when 30 per cent
of the diners and spectators weren't
Americans.
One cafe on the Place Pigalle,
noted for its speed in the prewar
days', installed an orchestra and in
vited dancing at dinner, in defiance
of police regulations. Two days later
it was impossible to dine there With
out reserving a table hours in ad
vance. Some of the theatrical crowd
made it their place of rendez
vous. Mistinguett, celebrated French
comic opera star, was generally
found there at night. So was Shirley
Kellogg, the bnglish actress, star
ring at the Folles Bergere.
Evening Gown Reappears.
The evening gown had been most-
taboo in Paris restaurants since
the war. It gradually began reap
pearing in the dinner dancing, at
this cafe on the Place Pigalle. A
voluptuous black-eyed beauty cre
ated a sensation one night in a
gown that made even the old-timers
gasp. What there was of it was of
black silk that clung and clung. But
what there wasn't of it was what
made the crowd drop oyster forks and
center eyes on the dance floor. Some
careless modiste had forgotten all
about1 making a back. And the front
of that bodice well, it was censor
ed. There were others, too, but they
still talk about the vision in black.
The Savoy, just down the street,
got its orchestra going, too, started
dancing and drew a big American
crowd. If you didn't bring your girl
along you hadn't any trouble pick
ing one from the flock of Yvettes
and Suzettes and Renees and Mar
gots and Blanches around the tables
A young French aviator, an "ate"
with a reputation for daredeviltry,
used to give the evening at the
Savoy an axtra "razz" by giving his
best girl a complete somersault over
his shoulder at the end of a fast
fox-trot, thus tipping the crowd off
to the latest thing in lingerie.

ants neanng what was going on
up in Montmartre, thought they
would get into the fun and the pn
r- . m .
nts, too, lor tne champagne was
flowing like the river Marne in
Montmartre.
Police Interferes.
One or two of the smaller restau
rants near the opera tried it first.
Before Maxim's the cafe de Paris or
Giro s could get into the game the
policte came down hard. They stop
ped the music not only downtown
but in Montmartre as well, and Paris
became a little sad again.
The night "dancine joints" have
had better success, but they are al
ways neeirtg from the police. One
night the boy who calls a taxi for
you after the theater whisners:
"They're dancing tonight at Number
Blank, Rue Blankety-Blank."
You taxi out and draw up to
stop in front of what appears to
be a private residence. The taxi
driver pushes a button, and the big
door swings open. As you cross
a dark courtyard you hear muffled
sounds of music. A man greets you
at the door, strips your Docket
book of $4 for admission, tosses your
coat and hat to the checkroom pirate
and invites vou in to the dance hall
The chances are that he is the head
waiter of one of the big Paris restau
rants, earning himself a villa on the
Seme by working overtime.
Plenty of Girls.
A 4 waiter rushes you a ciuart of
ordinary champagne for $10. The
orchestra crashes out a one-step. If
you forgot to bring her. along you
can still take your pick from a great
flock of blondes, brunettes, red
heads, sipping wine at a score of
tables and carelessly displaying knee-
lengths of hosiery.
I like better to dance with Ameri
cans or English," your blonde purrs
in your ear, trying out her English.
frenchmen not so good dancers.
Over at one table with an Ameri
can civilian is an American girl in
a uniform that says she is over here
doing war work. But she isn't do
ing war work here at 1 a. m. She s
having a look at a corner of Paris,
and the wine she has been drinking
has gone to her head. Right now she
is chuckiner a half-burned ' c.igaret
at her companion.
It is 3 in the moraine when vou
leave. One of the Yvettes (there are
always several of them) is engaged
in a fight at the door with a tall bru
nette girl, who she charges in an
outburst of tearful shrieks, is trying
to steal her sweetheart. The "sweet
heart is "spifflicated" and only
amused by the scran. He launhs
when Yvette decorates the brunette
with a black eye just before the
checkroom boy pulls the girls apart.
If You Know the Place.
No restaurant in Paris is permitted
to sell food after hours. But if you
are hnugry and know the place you
can get your "tummy" full even at
this hour.
The taxi deposits you half a block
away from the restaurant and cir
cles the block first, if there is a po
liceman in sight. You rap at a door.
Presently a little man openus it,
whisks you into a long hall and
leads you back to a dimly lighted
room. There, say for $5 or $6, you
can have chicken salad, wine and
coffee, if you keep your conversa
tion low, if you don't the little man
chucks you out.
Perhaps the next week you want
to dance again. The taxi-starter
gives you a new address.
"But how about the old place?"
you inquire.
"Oh, the police got that night be
fore last," he replies. "They arrested
some Americans, too."
Dives Under Supervision.
The more sordid places that used
to attract foreign nighthiwks in
Paris the "hop dives" and the ren
dezvous of the Apache are under
pretty strict police regulation. One
hang-out for opium-smokers, an un
derground place that provided ca
baret singers to amuse slumming
parties, was open at infrequent per
iods for several mohthsi Now two
policemen pace to and ' fro before
the door until the rcsy dawn.

Nazimova, bears a not remote re

True, she leads a hopeless cause,
that of the boxers against the Eu

torn between the love she bears for
an Englishman and the ancient tra
ditions of the yellow race. The robes
are of the heaviest Chinese silk, em
broidered with a, thousand designs.
On her head Nazimova wears the
symbolical headdress of the god

and dozens of silk floss pom poms

of gold embroidery that circles the

Pastor in Sermon Tells of
Heresy and Its Abolishment
Rev. R. E. Leavens Says
But Tolerance, Is the Way to Deal With Heretics;
Modern Heresies More Social 'than Theological.
In his sermon yesterday, the Rev,
Robert E. Leavens told the congre
gation of the First Unitarian church
his conception of heresy and here
tics. The pastor's sermon Jn part
follows: ... ' ; i.
"Twice recently in the current
press has appeared the word 'here
sy.' One reference was in a letter
from .the Rev. J. W. Knupp, closing
with a statement that the, teaching
of Unitarians 'shoild be considered
as the rankest of heresy, and in
stead of federating with men of
such belief, would do well to. give
it a very wide berth.' The other
reference was in an article telling
of the discipline administered to
Miss Alice Wood, teacher in one of
the high schools of Washington. D.
C. It appears that, a student asked
her if bolshevists are the same as
anarchists. Being a well-informed
woman, she was able to point out
the difference between the two. Miss
Wood was suspended for a week,
with loss of pay, and orders were
issued to all teachers of English in
Washington that they must not
touch upon bolshevisnt and similar
heresies. The superintendent, of ed
ucation, in order to be more explicit
about 'similar heresies,' mentioned
the league of nations as one. .
According to the dictionary
heresy is an opinion or doctrine
subversive of settled beliefs or ac
cepted principles. The word comes
from a Greek word, meaning to
choose. That is, a heretic is one
who exercises the right of private
judgment to the extent of holding
an opinion at variance with the ac
cepted beliefs of his day. This right
of private judgment is. a vital factor
in human evolution, '' We live in a
growing world. Beliefs which are
accepted by one generation are not
necessarily settled tor all time.
What is thought to be justice today
may be looked upon 100 years from
now as an intolerable evil, and to
day's truth may be proven false to
morrow. In the establishment of
justice and in the search for truth
the right of private judgment is an
important factor, for the way is
opened by individuals who, though
regarded as heretics, have yet the
courage of , their convictions.
Heretics of History.
"The heretics of history make an
interesting study. Channing and
his associates were called infidels
and atheists. The Puritans were
persecuted as non-conformists.
Luther was the arch-heretic of the
reformation (and a minister of the
Lutheran church in this city refuses
to affiliate with heretics. Was not
Jews of his own time and was not
his teachings thought to be sub
versive to the accepted beliefs of the
lews of his own time and was not
this the reason why he was put to
death? "
These are heretics who have been
right, as we think. A longer list
might be, made of persons whose
names are not known, heretics who
were mistaken, who were wrong.
The fact that they were wrong is
the reason why their names are for
gotten. All of which goes to show
that a belief is not necessarily either
right or wrong because it is the
accepted and established belief ot
the day, nor on the other hand is
a heretic necessarily either right, or
wrong, simply because he is a here-,
tic. But the fact remains that cer-

Not Forcible Suppression,
tain noted heretics in history by
bravely exercising their , right of
private judgment have led the way
in the establishment of. justice and
in the search for truth in this grow
ing world. :
Modern heresies are not theo
logical so much as political and so
cial. A ministe'r of a church in a
certain manufacturing community
was advised by one of the govern
ing board of his church, who is also
one of the 'high-ups' in the company
which dominates , the town, not to
use the word, 'progressive in his
sermons. He continued , and . was
ousted. Before the war the. com
monest heresy was socialism, dur
ing the war it was pacifism, and
now it is bolshevism. Heresy trials.
are earned on by boards and coun
cils and mayors . taking it upon
themselves to suppress or to call to
terms , persons who exercise their
right of private judgment to the ex
tent of holding and expressing con-
.victions at variance with prevailing
beliefs. Infidel and atheist were the
scare words of a hundred years
ago; now when we differ with a
person or have a grudge against
him, we call him. a bolshevist.
Reason for Suppression.
"During the war there was ample
reason for the suppression of indi
vidual differences of opinion. It
was an exigency which called for
united conviction and united action.
Now that the war is over the short
and swift Prussian war-time meth
ods of dealing with heretics should
give way to measures which more
properly belong to times of peace,
and the frenzied excitement of war
conditions should give place to a
more temperate, sober and reason
able frame of mind. '
' Not forcible, suppression, , but
tolerance", is the way to deal with
heretics. It has its dangers to be
sure. There is the danger of pro
ducing a crop of freaks, cranks and
fanatics along with those who prove
to be real pioneers and true pro
phets. But what is this danger com
pared with that of a popular ex
plosion resulting from the suppres
sion of liberty and the thwarting of
justice? There is a limit at which
tolerance ceases to be a virtue, the
well defined limit of inciting to
violence or of defiance to govern
ment. .... ........ ..
"We may do well to follow the
example of Great Britain, who is
neither standing aloof from the in
dustrial crisis nor sitting hard and
fast upon the lid in the very des
peration of fear, but has brought
together representatives of em
ployers with representatives of the
employed in a compromise which
amounts to a bold experiment in in
dustrial democracy. John Milton's
advice holds good today: 'Let truth
and falsehood grapple. Whoever
knew Truth put to the worse in a
free and open encounter? Her con
futing is the surest suppressing.'"
