seen American soldiers come to
France and force the surrender Of the
German invaders of his own land.
While in America Clemenceau was
professor of French literature in an
academy at Stamford, Conn.
In 1871 Clemenceau was mayor Of
Montmarte, one of the arrondisse-
ments of Paris. In 1856 he was
president of the Paris municipal coun-
Gil, which job is equivalent to being
mayor of all Paris. Each arrondisse-
ment has mayor, who is appointed.
Each elects members of the munich
pal council, which chooses a president.
Clemenceau's salary as premier is
100000 francs (about S19,0O0) year.
The members of his cabinet, whom he
appoints, get $4,000 francs year. The
president of France, M. Raymond
Poincare, gets salary of 100000 a
year, but he lives in a palace and is
supposed to spend it all.

A STIFF TEST FOR RELIGION

along the way. Many died because of malnutrition
and exposure The food that would have saved
their lives was withheld by their German captors
German doctors are said to have admitted that
large percentage of British prisoners in camp
nine miles from Brussels died of starvation. While
these prisoners wasted away and died German Of

N. F.. A. Special to The Tribune
PARIS, France.
Clemenceau, biggest and most pow
erful man in France, acclaimed as the
savior of his country, is a real demo-
Graf. III.
No palace for him-though he's
greater than a king, more powerful
than the pres ident of France.
Clemenceau lives in dingy apart
ment house in narrow street IN
Paris. It's not in the fine residential
district either. His fiat is the "sec-
ond floor back"
The great man lives alone, save for
a servant or two. His children are
married and live elsewhere. He has
been separated from his wife, whom
he married in America, many years.
Milk is Clemenceau's favorite food
for his evening meal. He doesn't
smoke any more. He likes gray
clothes and always wears a soft, crush
hat, quite ancient. His chief recrea-
ton is walking in the tiny garden be-
hind his fiat. ~,
Since he has been premier he has
changed his habits. He gets to the
war office at very early hour in the
morning. =.
Formerly he spent most of his time
at literary work, writing plays and
books and editing the newspaper he
founded, ''L'Homme Libre."
Worked In Night Hours
Then it was Clemenceau's custom
to have bowl of milk for dinner and
to go to bed very early. He would in
variably get up at 2 or o'clock in the
morning and spend couple of hours
debating to his secretary. Then ne
would go back to bed and get up "fol
the day" ABOUT 10 o'clock.
The long-suffering secretary livee
nearby. 1t was his job to get himself
out Of bed and over to the Clemencear
fiat at the exact minute of the night
when the master felt like climbing out
Of bed and doing some work.
Clemenceau has violent temper
He likes fight. He gets in a rage
and fights with bitter, sarcastic ton
| que when he's opposed. But paradox

with him great deal say he doesn'
