mountainside. No matter where
one >;oes abroad, there are those
eonstan' mementoes of former
strife and struggle, instilling pa-
triotism perhaps, but ever with its
kindling old fires and hatred
and envy and further desire for
revenge. A few moments are
spent in the little town of "Old
Nice," where it is learned that the
city gets its name from the Greek
"Nilci," meaning "Victory." Beau-
tiful are the old homes there,
quaint in style and surrounded by
trim white fences. Then on to
"new Nice—that universal place
of meeting for the "elegant
world." (Words used in quota-
tions in these columns are literal
transla'ions of local phrases.)
Nice is especially noted for its
shady boulevards, picturesque
flower markets, luxurious hotels
that are open all the year round,
its concerts and casinos, its fa-
shionable beach preferred for its
constant climate, even in summer,
its bathing establishments fre-
quented by bathers of all coun-
tries. The mediterranean Palace
nnd the Municipal Casino are the
meeting places of the elite cosmo-
politan clientele wherein every
form of amusement, as in Monte
Carlo, is available. The main
street of Nice is lenown as the
Boulevard or Promenade des An-
glais and a stroll down it past the
beautiful homes, occlusive shops
and superb public buildings is like
a walk along a palm and flower
bordered promenade in some
dream city.
