was the reverse Of disagreeable. and
as far as the eye could determine, it
was the reverse of dangerous. but the
eye cannot see into the depths.
AZ any rate, no vessel was seen
which sails under, on, or over the seas
and which would have been bent on
the destruction of a boat flying the
English flag and carrying some, SOL
diers among its passengers. One
could hardly get thrill from thinking
of danger on such a beautiful day.
The channel was almost CLASSY In its
look. One channel boat has made one
passage at least on which no traveller
had SO much as a hint Of seasickness.
Boulogne today is held largely by
the British. 1t is hospital base for
the English wounded. Last year, just
as the war was breaking out. the
French people of Boulogne were fear
full that England would content itself
with fighting on the sea and would
not send troops to help France. There
was great anxiety in Boulogne, ana
there was whispering that the English
government would not do its utmost,
and that it's soldiers were to stay at
home. Then one morning change
came over Boulogne. English trans
ports bearing troops were seen COM
ing out of the channel haze. Boulogne,
fisherfolk and merchant folk, went
mad with Joy. Les Anglaise!" was
the cry. 1t is probable that soldiers
never in the world before. except when
relieving some beleaguered city. had
30 warm welcome.
See Soldiers Everywhere.
From Boulogne to Paris the railroad
runs south and southeast. A part OF
the road runs through country which
the Germans penetrated last August.
There are a few traces only OF their
temporary occupation. The French

pede the foe. had destroyed some
bridges, and these today are only just
about again ready for use. The train
in which l travelled passed through
Amiens, where it was within consid-

only little way over plain and hill
