For Awhile

New York, Aug. 27-William G.
Sharp, who was appointed Ambassa-
dor to France two months ago, as
successor to Myron T. Herrick, sailed
yesterday for his post on the French
liner France. He would have sailed
some time ago had he not been pre-.
vented by the cancellation of sailings
of steamships upon which he had
booked passage.

Sharp, who has not been well for the
past year, will remain, with the rest
of the family, at her home in Elyria,

Mr.. Sharp acted and spoke as

he was not stepping, or, rather, sail

appeared pleased when he learned
that Robert Bacon, a former Ambas'
sador to France, was fellow pas.

His family is now in Paris.
Mr.. Sharp said that he sailed with

general way, about what his duties
would be, the most important OF
which, he regarded for the present
as looking after American refugees
who are now in Paris, or who are
bound there from Switzerland and
other continental points. He under
stood that some thousands of Ameri
cans, seeking repatriation, were now
making their way toward the French
capital.
"Then, too" he added, 81 shall have
