HOW THE ARMY OF OCCU-
 PATTON SPENDS IT'S TIME

When the Third Army has nothing else to do, it speculates on the pleas ant prospect, of going home from Coblenz by waterfall the way. While the Leviathan would be hard put to it to drag her ample bulk that far up the Rhine, the Third Army would be willing to compromise on flat boats to some lower river port where an ocean liner could berth without difficulty. From there the journey would be easy with good pilot aboard.
 The beauty of this prospect is that it would save lot of travel in side door Pullmans down to the base ports.
 Unfortunately, the prospect has been officially denied from G. H. Q. As mater of fact, when it comes time for the Third Army to move, the Third Army won't care much how the moving is done, provided it is in westerly direction.
 On the regimental flag of the 30th Infantry, 3rd Division, near Maven, there hangs today the Croix de Guer- re, with palm-tributs of the 18th French Army Corps for the mag nificent work of the 30th at Chateau Thierry the night of July 14-15.
 In addition, Col. E. L. Butts, who commanded the 30th that night in the Bois d'Algremon,t was given the Croix de Guerre. Colonel Perry is now in command. Three men also were given the French war cross. Maj. Gen. Joseph T. Dickman, form CT commander of the 3rd Division and now commander of the Third American Army, was present at the ceremony. -.
 The 38th Infantry had been deco orated previously, as we'll as the 7th Machine Gun Battalion, which was the first unit of the 3rd Division to reach the bridge at Chateau Thierry. In the 7th, twenty-nine decorations were awarded, five men being cited at the order of the army.
 Of all souvenirs now a German luger is about the rarest; so hear a Signal Corps man tell this: "In the battle of the Argonne I passed so many of the darn things that finally I made up . loop of wire and began to string them together. With me was another fellow and he began to pile them up in his arms. We must have collected about 50 or 60 when all of sudden, slap-bang, we ran right into a German machine-gun nest that hadn't been captured yet. We dropped those lugers and just beat it and they're probably there yet"
 America is likely to find many more opera devotees when the boys come home. There is grand opera in Coblenz, with very good music, and the theater has become popular with both officers and enlisted men. The highest priced seat is five and one half marks (about 65 cents in real

States please copy), and from there ! 1t grades down to about a dime, ol maybe d little more, so that the music is within reach of every sol dier.
 The men cannot understand, how. ever, the peculiar system of choice places. The Germans consider their balcony seats the best, then the or chestra, then the standing room, and then the gallery.
 There may be food shortage in some parts of Germany, or in all the rest of it, but the little farm towns in the area in which the Americans are quartered are far from the star vation point. Walk into the little inns of these villages and you may get the tenderest of pork or mutton, hare or fowl, or beef, with potatoes and real butter.
 The bread, of course, is bad, and the landlord will not put it on the table; and the coffee is unspeakable. Eggs are as scarce as good weather, some that were seen miles out in the country being snapped up a mark apiece.
 Had it not been seen with truth ful American eyes, it would not be believed, but out beyond Montabaur, in the center of the bridgehead, where long line of rusty German trucks lay along the roadway, Ger man officer real dyed-in-the-wool German officer, with swell uniform, and cap to match, was seen, red faced and straining, toiling labori- pusly' with his men, trying to bring back to mechanical consciousness the engine of one of the trucks, so that it could be made serviceable and handed over to the Americans, in compliance with the. terms of the armistice.
 Though the voices of the guns are stilled, many of the thrills of the front are still being experienced by the officers and men of the Army of Occupation who have occasion to travel by automobile, motorcycle or side car through the bridgehead. The roads, in many instances just wide enough to enable the machines to pass with convenience, wind through the woods and along the edges of heights in curves that would make any self-respecting snake envious. Dry, they are dangerous enough; wet, or covered with snow or ice, there is no word in the English language that can describe them.
