One OF the young officers over in
France has written home that he
doesn't know what has become of all
the young people. He says in the viii
lage in which he is billeted there is
neither man nor woman under 50
years of age There are many chill
dren, about IA or under, but no young
ladies' This may make France seem
a most unattractive place for some
young men who are thinking of going,
but of course all the villages may not
be alike.
