French Wadly Acclaim Troops.

French Wildly Acclaim Troops. layed lThe first contingents of American troops landing today were grested joyfully by the population of this whole district.
 The transports, whose expected ar- rival had not been previously an- nounced publicly, came streaming in-a to the harbor in 2 long line It an carly hour. The news that the Amer jeans were arriving spread with amazing rapidity and by the time the where the men were to disembark thousands of persons were on hand to greet them.
 whistles of craft In the harbor. and cries Of '.Vive Ia France and ''vive les Etats Unis'' seemd to come from every throat in the crowd, which was thiclkly dotted with the varied-col- sailors. Meanwhile the bands on the warships were playing the Star Spangled Banner and the Mar seillaise'' E the American colors were hoisted to their staffs.
 The town soon took on q holiday appearance and before the day was over scores of Anperican flags were fying, along with the -tri-color of France, over public buildings and private homes.
 Delegations of American army .ofli- cers from Paris and American navaf men from elsewhere were present with French military men of high rank and . similar representation from the French navy to receive the new recruits for the allies.
 Land was nrst sighted from the transports on Monday night after an exciting trip through the submarine zone. Frequent warnings of subma- rines operating in the expedition's course were received during the last few days of the voyage and the pas- sage through the war zone was made with high speed.
 The men were prepared for any emergency during this period. Boats and life rafts were placed so as to be quickly available and the watches at all the lookout stations were heavily reinforced. Weather conditions dur ing the entire voyage were ideal and the men arrived in excellent health. The days were warm and the nights cool and comfortable, while the sea was unusually smooth. Very few cases of sea sickness or other illness es were reported.

WRITES OF CHRISTMAS IN CAMP
Continued from Page y

ball race. 1t would take a book to de-
scribe these, so will let you guess
what they were. 1t might interest
some of you to know that some of the
Addison County boys helped win the
donkey race. Really Addison County
is famous for something else beside her
Morgan horses.
Christmas eve was spent by the boys
writing letters, playing games, reading
and decorating the mess hall for Christ
mas. One of the fellows said, ON be
darned if | am not going to hang up my
stocking. Always have so, why not
now" am sure he felt repaid in the
morning, for his stocking was filled
and the space around his bed was taken
up. Among the articles found in his
stocking were an orange, some candy,
and wooden pistol.
The first regmental service was held
by the Chaplain during the forenoon.
All the batteries marched to where the
service was held. Here the regimental
band helped with the music. After a
short song service we went back to our
batteries to await dinner. The mess
hall was decorated in the usual Christ
mas manner. 1t sure was a pleasant
sight, but, of course, it could not come
up to what all would have liked. and
that is to have spent Christmas at
home.
Nothing could have been asked for
which would have helped give US a
much better dinner than we had. 1t
was a good turkey dinner with all the
fiXin's To give you an idea of how far
the Y M. c. A. work extends | will tell
you that homemade pie and apples
were furnished by them. If you don t
think this is lot try to place yourself
in our place for three months and then
have piece of real homemade pie.
The evening was taken up with en-
tertainers from Boston who made
tour around to the various batteries.
This was enjoyed by all as most of US
had been shut up for a month or more
because of quarantine which made this
real novelty During the evening the
boys were all pres ented with Red Cross
bags. Nearly all the bags contained an
address and many a fellow started IA
letter of thanks on its way.
Thus ended the first Christmas away
from home for many of US, but Christ
mas which was made the best of under
the circumstances.
