YPRES A BIG SOUVENIR SHOP
Virtually the City’s Sole Industry Now
Is the Getting of Money
From Tourists.
The future of Ypres Is still uncer­
tain. No one knows at present to
what extent the town will lie rebuilt as
it was. All that Is certain Is that the
former population of some 18 000 souls
are now for the most part at Purls-
Plage and Blankenberghe und that
most of them are anxious to returu
“home.”
There are more than a thousand
people living In Ypres today, hnt these
are mainly adventurers from’ Brussels
and elsewhere, who have been attract­
ed by the chance of making money out
of visitors, says the London Times. A
new Ypres Is rising among the ruins
of the old, but It is a wooden Ypres,
of a character altogether repulsive to
all who realize that a quarter of a mil­
lion lives were given to defend the
salient which takes Its mime from the
town.
The new Ypres Is a place of cafes
and restaurants, of mobs of picture
postcard hawkers, of pleasure wagons
and omnibuses, of souvenir hunters
and noise. There is a so-called “Brit­
ish tavern" In the grand palace itself,
and the road to the Menlo gate Is lined
with places ot refreshment. In the
town and Its vicinity there are 135
cafes and restaurants, nnd everywhere
among the tumbled heaps of brick and
plaster, stone and glrdera men are ea­
gerly hammering and building to In­
crease the number.
The Belgian government has shown
Itself very willing to consider al! rea­
sonable proposals In the way of con­
serving the ruins nnd of erecting me­
morials. It has declared that the re­
mains ot the Cloth hall, cathedral and
adjacent buildings will be left as they
are. It has allotted to the Canadians
certain sites by the Menln gate. It has
promised a site for the erection of an
English church. There has been talk
of preserving the whole of the remains
of the town as a memorial.

Not long ago there was a nasty
week. Clouds and moisture—and de­

Airplane Saves Taxpayers' Money.

to jail by airplane was begun In San
Francisco recently when Ivan Gates,
police aviator of the San Francisco
department, flew across the bay to
Alameda and returned with Janies M.

months in jail. Kelley, who was
brought across with no handcuffs on,
