moved and that they could safely re-
enter the store.

FRENCH GENERAL IS
AN ACTIVE SOLDIER

Paris.-(Correspondence of The AS
ISOLATED Press General Henri Pc
tain, the defender of Verdun, is typ
ical of the modern French soldier. He
is just Co. He received his commits
sion as second lieutenant in 1878, and
became a captain in $780, and a COL
Onel in 1900. He was a colonel when
the war began and was going to retire
General Petain first distinguished
himself during the retreat from Char
leroi in the early days of the war. He
became brigadier-general and general
of division, and rose rapidly to his
present position.
He is a curiously modest man and
hates being photographed He is i'm
mensely popular with his men whom
he treats as though they were his own
children. General Petain is very
methodical and weighs his food every
day, saying that it is as necessary for
officers to be In perfect condition as
for racehorses Keeping in condition
is his pet mania He was turned out
of a fiat once because he insisted on
taking half an hours exercise with a
skipping rope after his bath every
morning.
The result is that General Petain at
60 Is as active as the youngest lieu

tenant in the French army. Quite re-
Gently in Champagne he covered four
miles at the double at the head of
company, and he prides himself on the
ease with which he undergoes the
same hardships and the same hard
work as any man with him.
The general does not believe much
in red tape, always wanting to get
the most work done in the quickest
way. To an officer who asked him to
give him post on the staff, General
Petain said, laughing, q don't need
staff officers. The men | want are fell
lows who can win three-mile races
afoot and ride motorcycles over rough
ground" There is a legend in the
Verdun that General Petain lived and
slept on the carriage of a machine gun
during the first 10 days of the German
offensive late last February.
