An ancient custom which still ob
tains In many villages In the south of
France is a pretty variation of the
choosing of the May queen with which
we are so familiar. The mayor and
six of his political officers choose from
among the village maidens the most
beautiful girl. As soon as the choice
is made known the queen, dressed in
white, even to a long white veil and
a wreath of white roses, assembles
with her parents and all the villagers
In front of the mayor's house. Here
he and six friends, dressed In frock
coats and top hats, form In procession,
the mayor and queen leading, and
march to the church, whgre there is a
short ceremony,
They then irarch back to the may
or’s house, where a favored few are
entertained at luncheon. When he
proposes her health be enumerates her
virtues, kisses her on both cheeks and
hands her an envelope which contains
the prize, $200 In money. But the cere
mony does not end here. They form In
procession, the band leading this time,
and In a sort of "follow my leader”
game walk through the village, up
lanes and over hills for three hours.
That evening a ball is given at the Inn,
where the queen dances first with the
mayor and his six friends and after
ward with the lads of the village, and
so the celebration ends. The queen’s
white veil, with the veil and wreath,
are carefully folded away and are
brought out again only when she be
