SATURDAY. SEPTEMBER %. 1917.


Letters coming 10 the press from France
tell of the warm welcome gwen To the
American soldiers by the French. who are
happy to consider u "a comrades-as
companies in arms. A has been pointed
out by these writers, the impression which
French NAV receive Of Americans during
the stay of our soldiers in La Belle France
may prove a lasting bond of amity between
the two countries BOND which viii cc-
ment forever the friendship dating from
the very beginning of the American re-
public, which We were enabled To establish
so largely with the aid of the French them
selves. America and France have always
been close friends. And, now that me
Americans nave come 10 them n allies.
the French have welcomed our soldier
with open arms. They warmed up nj the
prospect of fighting side by ~aide with the
brave sons of the founders of the great
mother republic. whose names are revered
in France even a. they are in our own land.
But other letters coming from France
give hints of a different sort-ihev tell of
some of our boys offending the SENSIBLE
ties of the French by want Of tact. Mr..
Gertrude Atherion, the noted American
writes', i among those who have written
back home. expressing a regret for the
want of tact shown by come of the Ameri-
cans now in France. who are charged with
having assumed hat know il ALL air.
which unfortunately some of rs. seem to do
on occasion. 'You could not win the war
without u j. what their manner seems Ia
express. Naturally the French are hurt by
such an attitude on the part of those whom
1hcy would love a friends. And. unless
curbed in the very beginning. instead of
s~cultivating and making stronger than ever
4he bond of friendship between the two re-
publics, we shall only create a prejudice
on the part of our French allies and fell
low democrats which may bear undesirable
fruits in the future.
The splendid achievements OF the French
so far in this war are Of a nature that
should appeal 10 the American mind. Our
boys should feel nothing but admiration
for the men who have fought and lived
through the terrific, unsurpassed. unpre-
cedcnted struggle of Nerdun. The ire
mendouS feats Of the French army
throughout this entire. wal have been such
rs to inspire enthusiasm in the beholder.
Our soldiers should not be guilty of under
estimating the valor and military proves.
of the French. Nor should the fact that
the French have extended such a glad wei
come to the Americans be taken a. a con
fession of weakness on their part.
To the more genuine Americanism. such
a mistake l.. of course, impossible. The
Americanism that admires courage wher-
ever shown, that applauds pluck and skill
wherever met. the Amcricani~m which j.
kindly in spirit and quick to recognize the
man and brother. whether he speaks Eng
lish or some foreign tongue, must prevail
amongst our Liberty BOYS who are going
to France. And every one of them should
do their utmost 10 check the contemplate
spirit of the 'know it all" whenever il
dares to show itself in any of our soldier,
over there.
