How American Boys in France

You should have seen the soldiers

The climate of France was strange to
them, as was the soil. and some of
the vegetables that please the French
palate, according to Sterling Heilig in
an exchange.
But the American buddies took up
winter trucking with will.
Nobody ever raised green corn down
there in winter. "Nor in summer, very
much, either" answered the buddies.
a few natives used to raise it to sell
to Americans Of Paris, but they had
never tried to eat it. though they
raised much yellow corn for meal and
fodder. Last summer the doughboys

France. And it was from the secre-
tary Of wars recommendations. they
say that the great American track farm
movement in France quit Red Cross
swaddling clothes and became general
ked from fighting front to resting
rear.
In, the south Of France winter is a
coed deal like summer. and they raiSs
ahoost anything. Heroes Of St. Mi
hiei were betting that they would have
green corn for Christmas-and the
French natives bet against them.
Most of the gardeners were conva-
lescents, wounded at St. Mihiel. and
hungry for the fresh green things they
expected to eat presently. Only those
whe have been deprived Of green stuff

Several years ago, when I was dep

witnessed the wedding of prosperous
young farmer.
The ceremony was performed by the
county judge, whose customary fee
was So; however, in cases where the
bridegroom happened to be welI-tOdO,
the old judge made no charge, leaving
the size of the fee up to him, and, in
such instances, usually received SIS

So in this case, when asked his fee,
the judge said, ''Well, 1 always leave
that to the bridegroom So the young
man handed him a sealed envelope and
departed with his bride.

If citations of Metz have especially

to the French themselves. For Reims
is very dear to them-for historic. for
patriotic, for religious, and for liter

rejoiced our French allies more than
the fact that the Germans have never
been able to take Reims, however close
they have come to it.
1t is the damage that has been done
to the glorious cathedral of Reims that
constitutes one of the greatest artistic
tragedies of the war. Here, in this
magnificent cathedral. the kings of i'm

Joan Of Arc led Charles VII to his cor
