However, after such a hearty lunch we evened up by having only soup for dinner. After a morn Ing at Versailles, we had the spe cial privilege of lunching at SHAPE nearby as the guests of Lt. General C. V. R. Schuyler, chief of staff for General Grunther, who was attending a meeting in Paris. In the large dining room, It was interesting to note that the personnel of the several nations represented at SHAPE made it a point to mix; in fact, the American officers are encouraged to seat themselves at tables with officers of other countries in order that good will and friendly relation ships be established. General Schuyler through a series of charts told us of the program that has been carried on during the several years of SHAPE'S ex istence. Since he has served with both Generals Eisenhower and Grunther at the headquarters, he has watched the full development et close range. Throughout our trip we found that the ideal day to tour a city was Sunday and that was especial ly true in Paris with its terrific traffic of the week days. Our good fortune also was having a Paris born Frenchman show us the city. He loves his Paris end it was evident in the way he planned the day. He knew exactly the spot to get the best view of every sight including the rear view of Notre Dame from across the Seine which is much more magnificent than the aspect from the front. And from the area in front of the Church of the Sacred Heart on Montmartre, we looked out over the city and back up the long flights of stairs to the church.

Iater word from Paris is that ''Oklahoma." is not being very well received by the French, apparently the audi ences don't comprehend the Amer ican dialogue with its localisms. It wouldn't do to mention Paris without the Louvre. I must admit, however, that it was a quick, self guided tour that I made. It would take hours on hours to do it justice so that I went in with the spe cific intention of seeking out only a few of its treasures the Mona Lisa, the Winged Victory, the Venus de Milo.

"It won't be a bumper crop but it looks like another good one," said Pete Stallcop, executive sec retary of the Pacific Northwest Grain Dealers' Assn. Wheat yields in lower Lincoln County, Washington State, were averaging 20 to 25 bushels to the acre with some reports as high as 38. Most of the harvesting was under way in the Ritzville, Odessa, Horse Heaven, Connell and Prosser areas, It's expected to start in western Spokane and northern Lincoln counties about Aug. 1 with Whit man County to follow that. Stallcop described the crop as one of the most "spotted" he has ever seen wit poor wheat stands right next to very good ones.
