The war situation as seen from the
inside Of France is we'll depicted in
the following excerpts from a per-
sonal letter received in Honolulu by
Lionel Walden, an artist with an in
ternational reputation, who is now a
local visitor:
Dear Lionel-Of course here no
one talks or thinks of anything but
the war. Quinper is full of soldiers,
fifteen thousand, they say. Yesterday
/ saw 1900 leave for the front. 1t
was a most inspiring sight to see
them march past the hotel. with drum
and bugle playing. Many marched
with flowers in the muzZles Of their
guns. 1t was delightfully."- French.
All were singing The Marseillaise.
Many of these men had already been
under fire and had come back here to
reform. The French have gone up
in my estimation by leaps and bounds
since the war started. They have
done everything so well but with a
calmness that one would not expect
from them.
OF course, every man fit to serve
has gone and | have not heard one
man object to going to the front. nor
the family of one object to his having
to go. Their one idea has been "Vive
la France" and to have &C rack at~hte
Germans. *
We hear that they have had to cut
down many of the trees in the Bots
in Paris as they have laid mines there.
What a shame! ! believe also. that
