AN AIR OF ADVENTURE
London Kind of Town You
Always Want to See Again
By HAL BOYLE
LONDON • — Every town you
pass through in your life gives you
a feeling of some kind—grim or
gay, depressed or happy.
The towns you never want to re-
turn to are the towns that bored
you, not the ones that made you
unhappy. But the towns you al-
ways want to see again are the
ones that gave you a lift.
And London la that kind of a
town. It ia more fun in a fog than
moat towns are in clear sunshine.
It baa been called "a man's
town," and it makes you feel like
a man. It has a sense of adven-
ture about 1L an air of anything-
ean-happen. And since most every-
thing you can think of has hap-
pened here in the past. It may hap-
pen again-to you. They might
even dig you up after you had

been three years in your grave
and stick your head on a pike,
as the second King Charles did to
Oliver Cromwell. Or they might
knight you for being a top jockey,
as they did Sir Gordon Richards.
It is the town of the long pur-
pose. and the purpose is to endure.
It takes everything In stride, be-
cause lor centuries it has expect-
ed that its biggest problem will be
the unexpected. This la why the
British rarely show curiosity or
surprise.
It is a polite town, one in which
the surest way to lose face is to
take undue advantage of your po-
sition. The waiter always says.
"Thank you," when be brings a
fork or a napkin. But if you bawl
out a waiter, everyone in the place
will look at you as if you had
slapped your wife in public. You
don't bawl out anybody out loud
in London—you lower your voice,
and put an edge in It. The right
tone does more than a holler.
Paris is s high sweet note, but
London is a dep chord, a music
with the heavy beat of time be-
hind it. Paris is a splendor, Lon-
don is a gray grandeur. There is
a saying that the British like "old
leather and old politicians.” And
they are a bit sentimental about
all things that wear well, from
the Tower of London to Sir Win-
ston Churchill.
It is a town where they don’t
tear down ideas or buildings mere-
ly because they are old. People
here don't think of history only as
something that happened to their
ancestors: they feel themselves a
part of it, and-In war and peace
—they are a part of K. History to
them is a continuously unrolling
carpet which they realize they
walk upon in their lifetime, too.
It la perhaps the best town in
all the world to walk in. So many
wonderful shopping windows to
look into, so many old winding
streets to explore, so many quaint
alleys, mews, purlieus, and places
to wander in, toy lanes of wonder-
land-and a flowerbox in almost
every window to brighten the dull
days
Did Robert Browning stroll here,
his head a tumult of poetry over
Elizabeth Barrett? Why, here la
the same tavern off Fleet Street
where Samuel Johnson nourished
Ms spirit. And what a wonderful
name-The Cheshire Cheese.
London is an exciting town, a
romantic town, full of the tang and
vitality and love of living, where
the past la never finished or for-
gotten, and the future still un-
winds in hope.
