YANka OF INTEREST
Way In Which American Soldiers ''DO Things" AstOunds Others
 Of Allies.

Behind Allied Lines In France, Oct 22-The American soldier is a source of continual interest to the troops of the other nations with whom he is fighting side by side, and to the people of France. They have been vastly impressed with the whtlehearted way in which he car- ries out his duties. On parade and on the march he regards his wOrk with the utmost seriousness, and every American column that passes leaves an impression of set, reso- luIe faces very different from the nonchalant attitude of the British Tommy. Sn his moment of repose, the "Yank," as he is called every where in France, looks for abuilding with a short flight of steps to the 0Cor foregathers there with his friends, and eats nuts and chocolates in prodigious quantities.
 Of an evening the "Yank's" regi- mental band plays to him. The selec- ticns are not "uplift stuff," but they cheer the tired soldier amazingly. Perhaps a couple of soldiers will jump up and do a one-step together up and down the sidewalk.
