rFrank Norris, the novelist, once
declared, "There are three roman-
tic cities in the United States —-
New York, New Orleans and, pre-
eminently, San FranciscoMr.
Norris, being from San Francisco,
was perhaps a !hit biased—but
certainly New Orleans is romantic
a-plenty.
The old French quarter, its nar-
row streets lined with tiny shops,
suggests a foreign clime and'a dis-
tant time. Most of the aged build-
ings are two or three stories high
and the scene is in shadow except
when the sun is directly overhead.
