the men are taught to recognize a
word by seeing it written on the

it and puts the men through drill
until they can pronounce it. and know
Its meaning. When the class es.

which they have previously learned
are put on the board, they pronounce
and translate them. Yesterday they
were putting together sentences and
were taught to say in French, Il am

Il am from the United States" and
similar sentences. She has taught
them words and phrases of army and
camp life.
She said to them yesterday, Now
when you land in France, you will
wish to speak to the Frenchmen who
meet you at the wharf, and so she
taught them to say How do you do"
in French, and then she answered in
the phraseology of the Frenchman,

answered, II am we'll"

constitute their equipment and scores
of other words. Some OF the men
knew most Of the words in which
they had been drilled, but when she
said, What is the word for tobac-
