Overseas
By Ring w. Lardner
PARIS, August 20.
A PERFECT DAY

Three members of The Tribune stan
Set out one summers day
To visit at the Yankee camp,
Some kilometres away.
They started in a motor car,
And. in a driving storm,
The rain il soaked them head TO heel
And rendered them unwsrm.
They got as far as So-and-So
At one o'clock p. m.
Up stepped a young French ofhcer
And coldly halted them.
He asked them for their papers,
In parlez-vous Francois;
And they did show their papers
This luscious August day.
Their passports and their passes.
Which latter said quite plain
That they should be allowed to 60
To camp American.
Their passports and their passes,
He glanced them through and
through,
And then Francaised: I'm sorry,
gents;
III have TO ride with you"
n. took them where he took them,
And officers were thick;
The frozen frowns that they received
Did make them fairly sick.
And now they trembled part with
fright,
As we'll as with the cold,
For officers ell look so cross,
And, heavens! how they scold!
For seven hours scolded they
Yes. | was in the mess
And each and every hour they grew
More cross. instead of less.
And when dark night fell over France
They told va we were free.
Provided we would drive right back
To so-called gay Paree.
We tried our best. French officers.
To do as We were told;
We started back. though II was dark,
And, oh. so wet and cold.
Twas not our fault wagon stood
Directly in our way
Our fier's in the drydock now,
And there she's apt 70 stay.
MORAL
IT'S easy for a Yankee scribe
To see a British trench
A pipe to visit at the front,
Defended by the French.
But when one wants to call upon
One'S .felloW countrymeH,
Why. that, oh, gents and ladies, II
Is something else again.
OUR OWN FRENCH CLASS
Lesson Two-It is important for the
novice TO learn the pronunciation OF
French numerals. Tn, deux and trois
need not be mastered, as nothing ever
comes that cheap. The words four,
five. six, etc, up 10 seven million may
be found in any French dictionary, and
are pronounced just the opposite way
from which you think.

Crimper Crimps Bankrolls.

Crimper. the 2 to fsvorlte in tbs
fourth race, proved grave for many
wagers, as the prohibitive choice
couldn't untrack himself in the goir!
and finished third. Garbage, the 70
/ shot, made all the early running, and
by dint of a vigorous ride OF Sehut-
finger nosed out Waukeag for the
purse. The finish was so close that
the crowd was in doubt until the num-
bers were hoisted.
Another hot choice fell by the way
side in the fifth race, when Viewpoint
finished second, lengths behind Buck
board. Viewpoint was played from 3
TO 5 10 TO 10. Blackboard closed at
TO ). The winner got perfect ride
at the hands Of Haynes, who rated
him properly and when ready let him
down. He caught Viewpoint in the
stretch and rolled home. Bar OF Phoe-
nix stumbled Immediately after the
start and tossed Jockey Collins into
the mud. The boy had very narrow
escape.
The final event was made up OF three
youngsters. Queen Margot ruled
3 To favorite. Candidate II was
played from 7 u 10 II 70 8. The win.
ner turned up in the fsyorte, which
won by a nose from Guelsnd. Candi-

was outridden By Shuttinger.
As Lillis turned for home with the

mount TO swing very wide, losing At
least two lengths. Shuttinger saw this
in a twinklng and hustled Harry Shaw
