Impresiones de un viaje rápido

This article, written by Manuel B. Montes, was published in the Spanish-language daily newspaper Excelsior, founded in 1917 by Rafael Alducin. Montes gives an account of his trip to Paris and comments various Parisian features that he deems admirable: the many taxis that are available throughout the city–although the traffic is not something to write home about; the fact that women are free to wander the streets on their own–as the police protects them; and the well-illuminated streets at night, which make it a pleasure to explore the city. These characteristics are described in such a positive light that they seem to be ideas that could be adopted in the Philippines.
