FIRST MARION BOY
TO Enlist Returns
Lloyd A. Lee, Who Joined
|. American Army June |,
1917, Back In City.

Corporal Lloyd A. Lee, the first Mar
ion county boy to enlist in the Ameri
can army, returned to Salem last night
and is again renewing acquaintance
with his parents, Mr.. and Mrs. A, A.
Lee. He enlisted June |, 1917 and has
spont total of 22 months in France,
spending the greater part Of the time
with general headquarters, doing spe
eial photostat work in connection with
tho signal corps. For this purpose he
was stationed most Of the time at Tours
and at Chaumont. While his work con.
stitutcd an important part Of the opcr-
ations it was of q routine nature and
kept him out Of the active zone. How.
ever, he had opportunity TO see much
Of military operations and travelled
overya good deal of the French terri
tory. Several trips were made to Paris
and after the signing Of the armistice
he had the privilege Of a trip through
the country fought over by the Amer.
lean army. There he was appalled, by
the work Of destruction wrought by the
Germans. He was especially impressed
by tho utter destruction and desolation
IN the city Of Rheims, whose magnifi-
cent cathedral was persiqlcntly bat.
tered by the Huns until there is not a
square foot Of the great pile that does
not carry the mark Of shell fire. So
utterly is the city ruined that he saw
merely struggling squads Of inhabi-
tanis The surrounding country seems
to have boen abandoned.
Corporal Lee tells Of four great days
in France Memorial day, the Fourth
Of July, which the French helped to
celebrate in Paris, the national day Of
the Freneh--July l4th-whon there was
tho greatest demonstration in Paris
that he ever witnessed; and the date Of
the armistice, when both Frerch and
Americans went wild in iubilation.
A very pleasant feature Of mis- stay
was a tour through southern France to
the World-famous resort Of the afisteu
racy and nobility--Cauteretes. lIe also
made a trip up through the snow.elad
Pyrenees 70 the Spanish border. This
is the most beautiful region ne ever
saw, and the climate is quite different
from northern France. A short stay
wss made al Nice. lie has a good word
to say for the Y. NJ G. A. which main
tains big headquarters at Cauteietes for
the benefit Of the hundreds Of soldiers
who 20 there on leave.
He sailed from Brest, June 8, on the
Leviathian, along with about 1000 9TH
er soldiers. arriving in New York last
Thursday. The Lcviathian, formerly
the German yaterland, is said to be the
greatest vessel afloat. On this trip Il
carried q total Of l4,300 persons, the
greatest record ever made by any ship.
He says the vessel Is a marvel of equip.
ment--a veritable floating city will all
public utilities provided, including
swimming pool and dancing payilions.
He told Of meeting Lieut.. Allen Carson
On board.
