P0INCARE HAS ADOPTED
SEMi-MILITARY ATTIRE
French President Adds to Presti-e
Of Army's New Helmet by
Wearing It at the Front.

Correspondence OF the Associated Press
PARIS, March 20.-President Poincare
has added to the prestige of the new
helmet Of the French army by wearing
it in his frequent visits to the fret line
trenches. The president has gradually
modified the costume he has worn since
the beginning of his visit until, with
the Adrien helmet. his dark blue hunt
ing suit. knickerbockers and leggings,
he is so easily mistaken for an oficer
that he passes through the trenches al
most unrecognized. When he speaks to
the troopers the latter, in doubt as to
his rank in the absence of stripes or
stars, address him often as general"
which. it is said. doesn't appear to dis
please him.
In the course of one of his recent Wis.,
it's Gen. de L. asked of a soldier from
Brittany: Have you ever seen the
PRESIDENT
NO. general" was the reply.
You are mistaken said the general
you have just seen him: it was the
man in dark blue who just returned
your salute and said to you, Good day
my boy"

The president smiled sadly at the al
fusion to his native region and descend.
ed into one Of the dugouts that the
French call the "cagna," ten yards un.
der the surface. He stumbled going
down and remarked: There is a littlt
lack of light here" The incident ha,
been taken as the text for demand
for more candles for the soldiers.
Only three candles are allowed tt
each squad per week. They burn. or
the average, eight per day. paying fol

Activity Is Explained.
PARIS April 3.-Owing to the fact tina t
bad weather has damaged the entente
allies barriers. causing mines to drift and
making the entrance to the channel easier
submarine activity in the North sea has
been more active during the last three
weeks than for four months, according to
a semi-official communication dealing
with the marine situation. 1t says:
During four months there was no
torpedoing in the channel, but in the
last three weeks enemy submarines
have shown activity in this sea. This
activity has succeeded owing to the
fact that bad weather damaged the al
lies barriers. caused mines to drift and
made entrance to the channel easier
The enemy doubtless possesses a large
number Of submarines. and can ST.
simultaneously attack in the North sea
and In the Mediterranean. Measures
have been taken in concert with Great
