CONSIDERED MOST
 BEAUTIFUL OF GIRLS

PARIS-Yvonne Gall is considered the most beautiful girl in France. She personalities those qualities of charm, chic and refinement of the girls of her land, which everyone has heard about and which might easily have wounded, in million separate offen- sives, the hearts of lonely American boys adventuring among them on generous errand.
 To make her complete. Yvonne has art and the sweetest of voices-to stand for French accomplishments. She is the greatest singer of France today, as to voice-the leading dra- matic soprano of the Paris Grand Opera In a word, she is the French voice. And when the Chicago Opera Association secured her for that season when two million of our boys were sailing eastward and two million girls at home were worrying about them, Yvonne said an unkind thing which got into the newspapers and provoked a storm of protest from one end of America to the other:
 When the American soldier returns home to his old girl in America" said Yvonne Gall, The will be longing for his French girl whom he left in Francel"
 She meant no harm, but said it in answer to many slurs against French girls, which appeared at the time. Be- ing French, and knowing the qualities of the average French girl, she took up cudgels for her race.
 But now it is different. Yvonne Gall, returned to France in time to see the triumph of our boys in war, saw also their vast labor in it's preparation, as well as the temptation of their ted ium which followed At that moment, the French voice made a remark which ought to go beside the other.
 ''Sapristii" said Yvonne Gall. They're in a hurry to sail home. Those American Bridafs are not likely to be marred by souvenirs Of France. Their single and only desire to return home was scarcely decent. As far as the French girl is concerned, the Amer lean soldier seems to have been woman proof. He had time to dream only about his girl in America"
 The Men Enjoyed Her.
 She did not tell what language the following events occurred in. The spot was the sweetest rest area of the Ri- viera, and the heroine a fascinating young FTe0C0 countess
 The girl aristocrat had come down from her perch in honest loyalty and gratitude to the husky Allies who had changed the fate of France so sudden ly. She fascinated right and left The boys enjoyed it. And, to ward off sud- den proposals of marriage. she made her nurse stick close to her in the three days before any fellow was due 10 return to camp. These Americans are so sudden!" said the youthful countess. All went well because you seldom knew a man more than two weeks in a rest area; then. suddenly, she spilled the provisions over a tall boy from Ohio, whose grandfather was six times president of the Pig Iron As sociation- She did not know it. She knew nothing-except that she dreaded the mcment when he should grow ten der and she knew well that she would send her nurse to match ribbon. The war has made great changes in France. Over this part, Yvonne passed with gentleness; but I am amazed at the picture of an aristocratic demoiselle motoring to Marseilles with her nurse. two weeks later, to ascertain with her own eyes if she had ruined the life of theslad from Ohio They found him at work around six junk dumps, after she had passed her card in; and she overheard him explaining:
 T promised the little countess keepsake Jake was saying to the ser geant.s Do you see anything here that would be suitable2r
