in Paris, you would look for one mark
ed IL fr. so.
Gold, silver and copper are used in
the making of French coins In gold
we find 10 fras end 20 frs. $500 and
$4,000 pieces worth 5 fir. 40 fir. SO IF, 80
fr., 100 FIR, are found, but are very rare.
In silver are coins worth so centimes,
1 r., fir, and FIR. (S0.10, 1920, s0.40,
$1.00)- In copper are coins worth 5
centirnes and 10 centimes ($0.01 and
$002). There is one nickel piece in
French money worth 25 confines
l$005), and coins in this metal from
Germany, Switzerland, Belgium and
Austria are in circulation in some parts
of France. 1t is well to refuse to ac-
eept coins that are not French while
in France, as there are many which are
absolutely worthless. Silver coins
worth so confines ($010) or more from
Belgium, Switzerland and Greece, as
well as the 5 lire $1,000 piece from
Italy, are the only silver coins that are
accepted at all on the market.
Paper money, or bank notes, is in
circulation in the denominations az
Frs. 1000, 500, 200 500 and so ($200
500, $40, $40, $10). These notes which
are issued by the Bank of France are
not binding as legal tender and may be
refused, but this is not often done. A
person may insist on receiving gold or
silver rather than paper if he desires.
Although bank bills are more conve-
nient to carry, the uncertainty of their
circulation in all channels makes them
unpopular and they are seldom seen
except in large business deals. For
this reason travellers usually provide
themselves with travellers checks, let
ters of credit or express orders pay
able in all countries upon Identified
ton. This relieves them Of the neces-
sity of carrying large amounts of heavy
bullion with consequent possibility Of
loss through theft or insecure pockets.
During the present financial crisis
paper money has become more common
than gold and it appears in denomina-
tions as small as frs. ($1.00). Ger
tain local Chambers of Commerce have
put out paper money in their region,
but it is valueless in other sections of
the country and should be carefully
watched.

Discipline Not Gained
BY Harsh Treatment

The following sage advice to Off
GERS is posted at the 2Sth division head
quarters and has excited much interest
by those who have read ii:
THE discipline which makes the SOL
diers of free country reliable in battle
is not to be gained by harsh or tyran-
nical treatment On the contrary, such
treatment is far mare likely to destroy
than to make an army. 1t is possible
to impart instructions and to give
commands in such a manner and in
such tone of voice as to inspire in the
soldier no feeling but an intense desire
to obey, while the opposite manner and
tone of voice cannot fail to excite
strong resentment and q desire to dis
obey.
The one mode or the other of deal.
ing with subordinates springs from a
corresponding spirit in the breast of
the commander. He who feels the re-
spect which is due to others cannot
fail to inspire in them regard for him
self, while he who feels and hense man
ifests disrespeet toward others, espe-
cially his interiors. cannot fail to in
spire hatred against himself"
Address of Major General John M.
Schofield, u. S. Corps of Cadets, Au-
gust II, 1879.

than zeal and enthusiasm In a sub
stantial manner it is dependent upon
confidence and confidence in turn
can exist only where efficiency and
ldependability obtain. Dependability
| is very largely dependent upon moral
character, and so we find that in war
the standard Of moral character of an
army plays an important part in the
attainment of success. In this field
the Army Y. M. G. A. has contribut-
ed very materially in raising the
standards and assisting the military
authorities in their work in more than
think are generally appreciated. The
Army Z. NJ. C. A. is already an inn
portant part Of the Army"
THE KID HAS GONE TO THE coLoRs.
(By W. M Herschell, in the indianapolis
News.
The Kid has gone to the Colors
And we don't know what to say;
The Kid we have loved and cuddled
Stepped out for the Flag today
We thought him child, baby,
With never care at all,
But his country called him man-size
And the Kid has heard the call
He paused to watch the recruiting,
Where. fired by the fife and drum,
He bowed his head to Old Glory
And thought that it whispered: Gomez
The Kid. not being Stacker.
Stood forth with patriot joy
To add his name to the roster
And God, We're proud of the boy!
The Kid has gone to the colors
1t seems but a little while
Since he drilled a schoolboy army
In truly martial style.
But now he's man "a soldier,
:. And we lend him listening ear,
For his heart is a heart all loyal
discouraged by the ours of fear.
His dad. when he told him. shuddered,
His MOTHERHOOD bless her!-cried,
Yet, blest with a mother nature,
She wept with mother pride.
But he whose old shoulders Strengthened
Was Granddad-for merory ran
To years when he, too, a youngster,
Was changed by the Flag to man.

FRENCH MONEY.

BY Prof. T. L. Foster, Army Y. M, c.. A.
One of the first things a foreigner
should do before starting for France
is to familiarize himself with French
coins and their values. 1t is absolute
ly essential to have sufficient money
in the coin of the country through
which you are to travel before you
make any purchases. 1t is good idea
to get some money changed even before
leaving this country in order to take
advantage of the knowledge of the
language. If this is impossible, seek
reliable bank, or money changers
office, immediately upon arrival
abroad. In addition to this, watch
carefully the money given in exchange
for the American money and ascer-
tain for yourself the exactness Of the
amount of French money given. You
cannot be too careful on this point.
The comparative value of French
money to American money is one to
five. That is you viii get for your
money current in the United States
five times its value expressed in units
of French coinage. Otherwise if you
have SIS to exchange into French mon
etary units you win get % francs. Per-
haps also you viii receive a few CEN
times more, according to the exchange
value of the foreign currency. The
French standard unit of money value
is franc which is worth approx
mate1y 20 cents in our money. AT the
present time it's value is around 10
cents. Each franc is divided into one
hundred parts called confines each Of
which is therefore, wort twenty one
hundredths of cent, or about one
fifth of cent. There is also another
coin even more common than the SEN
time, which they call the sou and
which has the value of five cetimeS, or
one cent. The principal French coins
are, therefore, franc worth about 5000:
sou, worth about $O.01 and sentime
worth about $0.001-5. The ordinary alb
breviation for franc is fro. i. e.. 4 for so.
In reckoning money values remem-
Der to multiply by five if you are
changing into French money and divide
by five If you are changing into our
own coinage. French money it writ
ten after the form of our money with a
period between francs and sentimes
j. e., frs, .25. or Frs. 3.25. the figures
after the period being confines Now,
suppose you should go into a French
restaurant and order a dinner, the bill
for which amounted to frs. .25, you
would divide by five to get the value
in our money, and would find that the
meal had cost $0.S5. On the other
hand if you should be in a store in a
French town and see the price frs
rs marked on a pair of gloves and
would like to know the equivalent value
in our coinage you would divide by
five and find the cost TO be $1.25. Or,
il you wished to pay $3.50 for hat

MEN FACING GOD.

Mel Trotter of Grand Rapids, Mich.
and his famous Quartette of singers
is here. Everyone knows something
about this practical, sane minded
evangelist, and mission worker. but
when one comes into contact with his
wonderful personality, so sincere,
deep and appealingly enthusiastic, one
really begins to feel the import OF
his message.
The quartette is excellent. Better
blended voices could not be found.
Their method of procedure is unique
and 1t gets the boys. Hymns are sung
at first. A few popular songs of the
day follow, and then the stirring,
heartfelt hymns are used.
This has already stirred the audi
ence and prepared them for the ulti-
mum of Mr.. Trotter's talk His ex-
perienced method Of approach to the
soldiers, with his strong conviction
back of it, and so free from any over
wrought emotionalisn1 is what appeals
to the men and makes them see the
reality of it all and long for the
Christian life.
Mr.. Trotter's method of aiding the
men to reach decision is most sue
cessful While the quartette is sing
ing the men who desire interviews
are asked to retire te a small room
and in the quiet, many make the de-
cisicn.
So deeply moved are the men that
numbers of them follow Mr. Trotter
the next night to the meetings.

TAKE THE LOAN.
BY Edward Everett Hale.


Come, freeman of the land,
Come meet the great demand.
True heart and open hand,
Take the loan.
For the hopes the prophet Jaw,
For the swords your brothers draw,
For liberty and law,
Take the Loan.
Ye ladies of the land,
AS, We love the gallant band,
Who have drawn soldiers brand,
Take the loan.
Who would bring them what she could,
Who would give the soldier food.
Who would staneh her brothers blood,
Take the loan.
All who saw eur hosts pass by,
All who joined the parting cry,
All who babe them do or die,
Take the loan.
All We wished their triumph then,
AS We hope to meet again,
And to meet their gaze like men,
Take the loan.
Who would press the great appeal,
OF our ranks of serried steel,
Put your shoulder to the wheel,
Take the loan.
That our prayers in truth may rise,
Which we press with streaming eyes,
On the Lord of earth and skies,
Take the loan.
