the audience followed and Uncle Sans
boys were given ovations.
Stories of returned Americans De.
picted how the "Yanks" assimilated
conditions. The truth of these state

manner in which the "Yanks" hob

and broke bread from their small
stores in pack with the old men OF
the country, who were too old to fight,
but Young in spirit. and who are ever
keeping afiame the hope that America
will be their country's savior
A striking scene was at the port
the day on which the first of the
American troops arrived in France. A
huge crowd had gathered and, the
front lines forming. the wide corridor
of human beings through which the
"Yanks" were to pass were seen to
bend like a bull-whip when 1t IS
snapped, so eager were the French
to catch a glimpse of their allies and
show their enthusiasm. Later. when
marching through the city under the
escort of French troops, the United
States soldiers were given ovations
by thousands who filled the marching

600 for Third Loan

Carnegie Hall was packed yesterday
afternoon with $500 school children.
They came from more than $500 schools
to receive diplomas for having sold
S72,000000 worth of Liberty bonds.
These represented 1.016,OOO subscrip-
tions.
The diplomas, signed by Secretary
OF the Treasury McAdoo and the pres
idents of the Reserve banks, were won
by schools which in many instances
have for pupils children of foreign par
entage who refused to return to school
unless their parents bought Liberty
bond. This spirit resulted in more
than half the schools going SO per
cent over their Liberty bond quotas
schools were awarded silk flags bearing
large blue liberty bell on a field of
white silk with red border for having
sold bonds to the amount of $4,000 and
over. These flags were presented by
A. B. Leach, chairman of the Metro
politan Canvass Committee of the Lib
erty Loan Committee.

Boys High School, with a record of
S1,455,650, and the third award was
made to the Wadleigh High School,
which turned into the Liberty Loan
Committee $1,337 $50 in subscriptions
Arthur S. Somers, president of the
Board of Education, presided at the
meeting and in his opening address
praised the children for having given
two cents each for the relief of French
soldiers who were not entitled to
government pension because they had
not lost leg, or an arm, though
manned for life. This fund of $16,
600 was sent to France as gift from
the school children of New York.
Besides raising this special war fund,
the school children have since last
October made 100000 articles of wear
ing apparel, com prising of sweaters,
wristlets, socks and underclothing, as
we'll as $4,000 articles of clothing for
French children who have suffered
from the war.
