 It is interesting to visit one of the "chateaux de commerce" in Reims, as the French style the caves or wine cellars in which the golden beverage Is stored They are chill and damp underground warehouses often seven ty-five feet below the street. The long lines of cayernoUs labyrinths are weird and gloomy in spite of their neatly kept whitewashed walls and the scrupulous care bestowed upon every bottle of the precious liquid in the endless rows and rows of long dark vaults.

 Before the war the Argonne region had the well cultivated look SO typi- cally French Long lines of fruit trees bordered the welltilled fields each side of the beautifully kept roads, which are such constant surprise and de light to American autoists In Ar gonne almost every field has his tory, and every acre shows the inti- mate association of generations of thrifty French peasants with their na- tive soil Wherever 1t is possible to raise a crop, a crop is raised, and every particle of tillable ground Is utilized.
 All the little French towns and vil- 1ages seem akin. The relationship of one to the other is evident, exactly as in the great cities of France. Even in tbe metropolis of Reims there are
