France. Aug. 10. review yesterday
by Maj. Gen. william L.#sibert OF all
the troops Of his command In training
for the trenches afforded military
spectacle Of international significance
and historical import. It was the first
time the troops Of this particular unit
of the American army in France had
been assembled in its entirety and the
display was deeply impressive.
There have been other reviews Of
American troops in foreign lands-in
the Philippines, in Cuba, In Guam and
In Panama-but there seemed to be an
entirely new meaning/in the sturdy
tramp of the men in France One saw
in them the symbol Of the countrys
new adventure.
sibert Feels Proud.
"They made me feel very proud" de-
clared Major General Sibert last night,
echoing the sentiments Of small but
enthusiastic handful of Americans per-
mitted to see the martial display.
The setting for the review was one
Of rare beauty. It was held on q broad
but somewhat rocky plateau with the
rolling fields of France ripping away
in every direction, all green and brown
with glowing crops and ripening grain.
Here and their picturesque little
French villages, white walled and red
rooted, snuggled amid the trees OF
matchless valleys. Occasionally these
valleys were bathed In sunshine and
again were hidden In the gray mist OF
rain. The scene was one Of changing
brilliance and shadow. The deep blue
OF the harvest sky and the dazziing
August sun now and then were massed
witch cumulus clouds driven along by
a stiffening gale.
At one time during the review a
rainstorm broke over the marching
troops, but it was Of brief duration and
there was not falter in any part OF
the line.
There is an. officers bombing school
near the point where the review was
held and thruout the time the troops
were marching laud explosions OF
hand grenades in the near distance
gave touch Of war reality to the pic
ture.
Troops Move Early.
Very early In the morning the troops
were ON the move. They were scat
tered in q dozen or more French VII
lages and each regiment was assembled
in village where its headquarters
were stationed.

European type ar55 whey. 9. , = ...e.r ....e-ch
Yesterday in columns of fours the line
seemed to stretch an interminable dis
tance along beautifully paved French
roads lined with giant trees.
AS the Americans passed thru the
French villages en- route to the review
ing field the peasants gazed at them
in admiration. They have seen much
of the American soldiers individually
and in companies since their arrival.
but this was the first gathering IN force
OF the new ally and the impression 1t
made on the farmers and French SOL
diers on leave could easily be seen and
appreciated. "A

SUFFRAG|STS WILL
 AID N. Y. SISTERS
Connecticut Women to Take AC-
 tive Part in Fall Campaign

Hartford, Sept. 21.-Not very much active suffrage campaigning will be done in Connecticut during the fall months. This is the general decision Of the suffrage leaders, and is due to two causes. One is the preoccupation or Suffragists in active war service- preoccupation which is possible be- cause Connecticut is well organized for suffrage and this organization has been used to bring the women togeth- CT for war service work. The other reason is that New York will vote on a state suffrage amendment in Novem- Der, and all the energy that can be spared from work in Connecticut will be thrown into the great neighboring state to help to win a victory there.
 Some of the Anti-Suffragists are asserting that the fact that New York defeated woman suffrage in 1915 fixes positively the fate of the present amendment. They point to one or two states in which the majority against woman suffrage was increased at a second election. They do not re- call the fact that in most of the states which now have equal suffrage the voters were called upon to pass on suffrage amendments several times before the victory was won.
 In Oregon ~iere were five unsuccess full referenda before equal suffrage was esta blished in 1912. Amendments were voted upon and defeated in 1880. 1884, 1900, 1906, 1908, and 1910, and yet in 1912 the voters reversed their decision and granted votes to women. The curious part of this history is that since 1912 there has not even been a movement to repeal the amendment, although by the help Of the initiative, this could easily be done
 In Kansas there were two unsuc- cessful attempts before the amend ment was passed in 1912 and the same is true of arlington where the women were enfranchised in 1910. In Colorado and California these was one refcrdum in which the wOman's cause was defeated, but in none of these states has there ever been any movement to get rid of a system which as soon as it is established becomes

Value of TetanuS Serum.

Paris, August. 3O.-During the last meeting of the Surgical Society Doc trr Fredet mentioned fact which seemed to show the value of pre- ventative injections of anti-tetanus serum.
 After the battle of Ourcq. a certain number of wounded French and Ger man soldiers were collected in hos pital. A German doctor had re- mained With the German wounded and, although sufficient serum was placed at his disposal, he refused to use it for his men, saving that he considered such injections had no pre- ventative value.
 The French wounded received the normal doses of the serum. Of twelve German wounded, six contracted te- tanus Qock- jaw and died, while no French wounded showed any symp- tom of it. This example of the ser um's preventative efficacy has all the more weight because all the men had been wounded under the same condi- tions and on the same tetanus-infect- ed ground.

VETERAN AVIATOR
 KILLED IN SERVICE
Captain RoCkel, RiSked Death a
 Thousand Times

Paris, August 21-(Correspondence Roeckel, one of the oldest in service and one of the most remarkable of French military aviators, has just been killed in flying accident at Villacoublay, after risking death thousand times over the enemy's lines.
 Captain Roeckel was the creator Of the French system of regulating artil- lery fire from airplanes. Among his exploits was the destruction of half of the artillery of the Sixteenth Ger man army corps in the vicinity of Fri aucourt, September 8, 1914. Tn.s achievement provoked a general note by Marshal Joffre regarding tho use of "airplanes of combat"
 Two days after his success near Triaucourt, Captain Roeckel, flying at a height of 300 yards, discovered the position of a division of Bava rian ln- fantry in the region of Vaux Marie, signalled it to the artillery, then got back to camp with his machine rid died with bullets and shell fragments When tine French infantry advanced and occupied the position, they found 4,800 dead BavarianS on the field, all victims of the French 3-inch field guns.
 Captain Roeckel had won the cross of the legion of honor and the war cross with six palms for as many ci- tations in the orders of the army.

ASSURING SOLDIERS
 FROM AUSTRALIA
Recruits Enlisted Since July Are
 Eligible

Sydney, Australia, August 30.-A Correspondence of Associated Press.)
 A scheme for insuring soldiers from Australia in this war which was launched early in July by Sir Samuel McCaughey, 'the sheep king' of the Comm onwealth, is now in operation.
 Sir Samuel is an octogenarian bach elOr pastoralist who lives at North Yanco in this state, New South Wales. To him Australia owes much. He was a pioneer irriga tionist and his sheep ranch at North Yanco is one of the finest on this continent. A few years ago his sheep properties totalled D. 1000 acres and the number of sheep Shorn on them was a million yearly The wool often reached more than f.5OO,OOO in value. He came to Australia 60 years ago from his native town in the north of Ireland and is a member of the legislative council, the upper house of the New South Wales Parlia ament. Prior to the war

in July are eligible. The deed provides for other patriotic Australians joining with Sir Samuel in the scheme.
 Sir Samuel stipulates that the chil- dren of the men insured shall include illegitimate as well as legitimate ch1l- dren, and dependents shall include the mothers of such illegitimate children v This liberal provision has ecited faV- orable comment in Australia.
 The work of carrying out the scheme has been entrusted to board of four prominent citizens. year after peace has been declared should there be any unexpended funds the

he made important contributions to patriotic funds, including one for equipping troops for the Boer war, and his charities then and now are numerous
 Sir Samuels latest patriotic gift, the terms of which are contained in a deed of declaration now made public, is an undertaking to insure the lives of 500 Australian soldiers. Each pol icy Is to be a special one in an Aus tralian company for $1,OOO payable if the insured soldier meets with death or total disablement. Only re- cruits who have enlisted since early

HOW TO RAISE PORK.
Exposition at Springfield to Teach
 Best Methods.

Pork plays such a big role in the
 feeding of the Allied armies, and so
 many hogs must be raised in the fu-
 ture to prevent pork shortage, that
 the Eastern States Exjostion and
 Dairy Show at Springfield, Mass. Oc-
 ment Food Training Camp of this
 region, Is offering unusually large premiums for bred hogs of the common breeds.
 Pork is a kind of meat which can be cured or canned very easily. This
 causes it to be of great value as a food for soldiers. since it is very diff fcult to make much use of fresh meat in the feeding of an army. A pork shortage would handicap the Allied commissary greatly in keeping their l forces furnished with meat
 Pork, too, cap be produced more 1 quickly and in larger quantities than l any other kind of meat. pig six i months old should weigh from 175 to 200 pounds, four-fifths of which Is | edible meat. A SOW should raise five l or six pigs twice a year, and two lit | ters of pigs should produce nearly a 1 ton of meat.
 1 There is so much interest in hog
 production in this territory that it is 1 believed that many hundreds of anil
 mals exhibited at the coming exposi- 1 ton will be purchased at private sale 1 by farmers who wish to raise better i hogs. The exposition is encouraging
 this practice in every way possible. l The Eastern Berkshire congress show will be big feature of the exposi- tion's swine department.

Clcmenceau's Wife Springfield Woman

Paris, August 3o.-M. Georges Clemenceau, the 'Tiger" of the French political world, has not for gotten that he is or was a doctor of medicine. He is, indeed, the son of doctor and during his three years life in the United States, he married Miss Mary Hummer, the daughter of a physician of Springfield, Mass.
 M Clemenceau is at present taking the cure at Vichy. He used to go to Carlsbad before the war. A few days ago a soldier on leave was injured when his bicycle collapsed as he was riding into Vichy. The former pre- mier happened to arrive on the scene in few moments. M. Clemenceau bandaged the mans damages, did everything possible to aid him, and took the injured man in his car to a Vichy hospital.
