    Cooler than the first time

    La Dernière Heure, "Mons-Centre" page 15. Full page gathering three articles: "Plus cool que la 1re fois", "Une voisine déjà bien connue" (Jacqueline Galant) and "Les quartiers ont fait la fête". Main photo: the atmosphere at the home of the mayor of Mons, Elio Di Rupo.

    La Dernière Heure, Mons edition, page 15. Second Mons edition of "Immeubles en fête — La Fête des Voisins": the previous year, mayor Elio Di Rupo had opened the doors of his house in rue du 11-Novembre. The page also covers the party hosted by Jacqueline Galant and a tour of the Mons neighbourhoods.

    Context note

    The quality of this press clipping is unfortunately degraded and does not meet our usual presentation standards. We nevertheless wished to preserve and publish it, as it is an archive bearing witness to this event. Only the headlines and standfirsts remain legible; the body text could not be reconstructed. The date printed at the top of the page (a day in June) is unreadable, but the year is now confirmed: 2004. The text recalls that "last year" mayor Elio Di Rupo had opened the doors of his house — hence the second Mons edition.
