OFFICERS CLUB OF AMERICANS
 TO BE CLOSED

LONDON, March IA (Correspon- dence of the Associated Press) The American Officers Club in London will be closed next month, marking the end of purely British collective hos pitality extended to American forces in England. Many Americans who have been stationed in England say that the British people have gone much farther in their efforts to make them contented and comfortable than they could have expected, and are carrying home with them pleasant memories of | their stay here.
 The Officers Club here probably was the most notable achievement of hos. | pitality. When American officers be. gan to arrive in large numbers there was difficulty in providing club ar rangements War activities at Lon. don had resulted in clubs being over taxed with British newcomers. At the suggestion of Sir Harry Britain, who had spent several months in the Unit. ed States in 1915, the Pilgrims organ ization, of which he is president, un- dertook to provide club
 The palatial house of Lord Lecon- field had been obtained, and the club was organized. It was popular from the day it opened, and through it American officers were given the op- portunity to become acquainted with English people.
 In entertaining Americans in their homes Londoners did not confine them- selves to men they had met at the Officers Club. Almost daily Ameri- can army and navy headquarters re- ceived requests that they designate a few men for teas, dances or dinners.
 A committee of the ministry of in formation devoted itself to entertain ing Americans for several months. The National Sporting Club was free to Americans in uniform every Wednes- day Vice Admiral Sims and General Riddle, the American commanders, ire | quently attended. Theatrical man. agers arranged performances every l Sunday night at the Palace theater for Americans in uniform. Theater tick cts to many London attractions were free to any American soldier for the asking at any time, and hundreds of men took advantage of this hospital ity. This committee also sent enter. l tainers to hospitals where American wounded were receiving treatment and it provided theatrical attractions at other English cities where Ameri cans were stationed

MILITARY TOURISTS
 NOW FLOCK TO PARIS

PARIS, March IS Correspondence of the Associated Press) Paris is full of military tourists, personally conducted though not by the usual professional corps of guides and tour ist agencies.
 Americans, English soldiers, Can adians, Australians and New Zealand CTS provide the chief mebership of the sightseeing parties. Large sightsee- ing automobiles, termed in tourist vernacular "rubberneck wagons" swerve through the streets of Paris always filled with overseas visitors.
 Then too, they have their regular announcer who has acquired fluent speech in recounting the wonders of Parisian architecture. The Americans are generally conducted by some rep resentative of the Young Mems Chris tian association, while the Britishers are served by members of the British womens auxiliary organization.
 There also is in operation for the veterans of the war, line of tallyho coaches. These are in most demand because of their novelty for the Am ericans., "Doughboys," army nurses. artillerymen, the army cook, and the army blacksmith pile into the coach. Perched high above, the wheels, they view the sights of Paris with holiday gayety.
