St pJr Parisienne, Club Offer Assistance to American Brides Abroad By ROSETTE HARGROVE Newipaptr Enterprise Astn. PARIS (NEA) "To fur ther a sense of unity and pur pose among American women married to Europeans, living abroad, with a view to assisting them to adapt to new condi tions," a club has been formed. It is called the "Association of American Wives of Euro peans." That quote about assist ing wives is the first clause in the club's constitution. The meaning of those words is well known to members who are now "veterans" in living abroad. For example, take the club's president, Mme. Raoul Mich aux (nee Phllis Mitchell, of Washington, D.C.). She came to France as a bride 14 years aeo. When she started life in Paris, (he ran into all sorts of snags. She did not speak French and hc knew little about customs, wines, cuisine. She was a bahe in the woods when dealing with maids and tradesmen. Not kno ing whether she was llone in her plicht. or one of many. Mme. Michaux tried for years to find out through offi cial channels. This year, she decided to run an advertisement in the Paris edition of the New York Herald Tribune: "Wanted: American wom en married to Frenchmen to discuss problems common to the group." One of the ideas entertained by the French regarding Amer ican women is that wherever four or five of them gather to gether, they immediately form a club. And that s what Mme. Michaux did. I She received 15 answers to her ad. Two months later, 40 prospective members attended the first meeting. By the end j of the year, nearly 150 women i may be club members. j The club's primary aim is to i help the newcomers avoid the 1 pitfalls that women like Mme. , Michaux fell into when they first arrived here. "Any couple i uniting two nationalities is the kind of laboratory where the risk of explosions is great," Mme. .Michaux explains So now Mme. Michaux. a vet eran, says: "I spend my time explaining the United States to the French and the French to the Americans." For many of the 60 charter members, of course, such expla nation is unnecessary. Thirteen 'iff) r m MME. RAOUL MICHAUX She knows rrhnt it's like to be a new bride in a ttranoe land were married before World War II. One, who lived in Paris for 35 years, said: "When I came to Paris as a bride, most French people be lieved the majority of Ameri cans were millionaires. I did not even come with a dowry! But I did speak French and I was lucky that in no time at all I was taken into the bosom of my French family." Those were the days when even a modest middle-class French family could afford at least one maid. Life was easier and an American bride usually stepped into a very comfort able home. Since the war, Frenchmen marry much younger, often on a shoestring. Many no longer can afford maids. This is where the American bride, accustomed to doing many household chores, often scores points over the French girl. But. of course, the American newlywcd still has numerous obstacles to overcome. That's where the club enters the pic ture. The new wives find an nutlet to release frustrations, at tach of homesickness and lone liness and other unpleasant emotions. And they can seek the advice of older members. The club stands out as a bridge of good international and human relations in marked contrast to the loosely knit world of American families of the diplomatic, military and business corps. Those families tend In set up their "Little America" apart from, hut on the soil of, France. They shop at American commis saries and they seldom meet any French people save for their opposite numbers in the professional business worlds. And their children go to Ameri can schools. Club members generally live quite differently. Many of them speak French, enjoy wine with their meals, smoke French cig arettes and send their children to French schools. The children eat French breakfasts with cafe-au-lait or chocolate and most refuse to drink milk with their meal. But the American wives of Europeans have not forgotten to remind their children of their American heritage, also. The children generally are taught to dress up for Halloween, cele brate Thanksgiving, play base ball and speak English without a French accent. "We don't want to make typi cal Americans of them," Mme. Michaux says, "but we would like them to appreciate the best of two worlds." Mme. Michaux hopes that similar groups eventually will I be established in other Euro pean countries to foster a better understanding and contribute to "selling America abroad." Some ! time next summer, she will ar range for a charier plane to I take a number of American ! wives hack home. She hopes to offer a reduced fare for moth ers and children who otherwise could not afford to make the trip. In the meantime, the mem bers of the Association of Amer ican Wives of Europeans arc sit ting hack, enjoying and learn-. Ing much about their unique status on french soil. At 1 re cent meeting they listened to a French psychiatrist. His topic: "Psychology of 1 French hui- band." t proudly, tve present America's greatest slack for active wear!
