italian soldiers will reach this city

band picked from the most famous
infantry organizations in Italy-the
Bersaglieri, the Alpini and the Grena-
diers-are expected to land in New
York today and proceed Immediately
to washington.
The company from the far-famed
Bersaglieri, the light infantry troops
which Gen. Alessandre La Marmora
created in 1886 to protect heavy col
urnns on the march, can be recog-
nised by the plumes waving from
their hats. In this war. still retain
ing their old Characteristic Of mobile
troops, the Bersaglieri have been
used as attack troops, cyclists, and
motoreyclists. Nor is this the first
time the Bersaslieri have served with
the French and English, for they
fought side by side with the same
allies at the battle of Cernaja in
the Crimea in 1854.
Physical standard High.
The physical standard of the Ber-
saglieri is the highest in the Italian
army. Men Of these regiments must
have an unusual chest development
and be of a certain age. On the
march their pace is set at 14o steps

in length. Their running step is
more than a yard long, $50 to the

in Italy is demonstrated by festivals
held in times Of peace in places
where the various troops are sta
toned, on the anniversaries of dec
orations which every battalion OF
the Bersaglieri won in the war for
italian independence. On such oc-
casions It is customary for the SOL
diers to make a spectacular ent-
rance to the entertainment by
climbing down rope ladders for the
edification of the crowd.
For the Alpini. recruited from the
mountaineers In 1872 to protect the
frontier valleys, Gen Parracehetti,
who organized and led them, Is re-
sponsible. They saw first service
in Africa in 1895, where they fought
again in 1911.
Invaluable Mountain Fighters.
In the present war they have been
invaluable in the mountain fighting.
Their struggles with the elements In
their native mountains have made
them calm, stubborn and strong.
Thousands of them have been lost In
the blizzards in the mountain passes
because they held fast to their motto,
None shall pass here" Frequently
small groups of these hardy fighters
have climbed aseents deemed i'm
pregnable by the enemy. and captured
Austrians far outnumberins their
own slender force.
The Grenadiers have been chosen
from the tallest soldiers in Italy. The
Grenadier Guard has been recon
structed seven or eight times since
1915. The Grenadiers, like the Alptni
and the Bersaglieri, served In the war
of Italian independence.

Paris, Sept. II CBy maiD.-Amer-
lean telephone girls reign in royal
state In France. They are Adored
by the French and worshipped by
the American soldiers, the men of
the Y. NJ. c. A, Knights of Column
bus. Salvation Army and other war
workers affiliated with the United
War Work Campaign for $40, ,500, 900
which will soon be under way in the
United states. Yet In spite of all
this attention the hello girls" are
not spoiled.
Ninety-nine are in France. Ad-
ditional units are on the way. Those
already here are pretty well scat
tered, though there are two or
three large units.
The happiest unit--et least the
girls claim they are the happiest
units stationed in the City OF
Discomfort, so called because 1t is
far behind the battle lines and
practically every one there is ann
ious to get to the front.
They Reign Supreme.
The girls are given two dances a
week. one by the Y. NJ. c. A. and
the other by the Y. w. c. A. In
addition, they are tho honored
guests at all entertainments and
many theater parties are given
them. Besides, they have an ath-
letic field of their own provided by
the Y. W. c. A.
All the telephone girls in this town
are quartered at the Signal Girls
Club. a French hotel taken over by
the Y. W. c. A. especially for their
use.
Army 90. ks" Goodbyes.
Their life is not all play. however.
The girls are under military disci-
pline. Each is allowed four passes
a week-two late and two early. The
early passes call for them to return
to the club by 1890 o'clock. The late
passes allow them TO remain out un-
til midnight. The military author
tiles have recognized the presence of
the girls and their value to the army
by permitting enlisted men who take
them to dances to return TO quarters
45 minutes late in order TO take the
girls home. 35 minutes being allowed
for the trip and 10 minutes for tho
"goodbyes."
The girls reign in democratic state.
They accept the invitations of Off
GERS and enlisted men alike. Both
officers and enlisted inen may call on
them at the Signal Girls Club
Their rank Is forgotten though mill
tary courtesy Is maintained; the men
are only too glad Of the opportunity
to see and talk to real American
girls.
At recent dance, given to the
American girls of the city OF Dis
content. and attended by telephone
girls, Y. NJ. c. A. and Y. ". c. A.
women, a colonel. a lieutenant col
onel. four majors and captains and
lieutensnts galore were dancing on
the floor at one time. and ten col
onels and majors were dancing with
telephone girls. and the colonel had
the least attractive girl of the lot.
There are SO many more men than
girls at these dances that the girls
are called upon not only to "halve"
but to quarter" their dances sc
that every man may have at leas,
one dance or rather part OF a dance
The army not only adores the
