FORTY FRENCH BRIDES
HAVE TOWN GUESSING

BURLINGTON. VT, Aug. 1s.-This
city is all excited over the forthcom-
ing arrival of forty French war
brides, the wives of troopers of the
Third Cavalry, recent overseas ar
rivals, who have been ordered to Fort
Ethan Allen.
Some Of the young brides, who are
said to be pretty, can speak English,
and the various welfare societies here
are at wits ends to adequately pro-
vide for them. However, the Neigh
bOrhood House, one of the oldest man
siOns in the city. which was used dur
ing the war as a soldiers club, is
being fitted up for their welcome.
As the pay Of an enlisted trooper is
only $50 month, with the present
price Of food and clothing it will be
necessary for the brides to assist in
earning money toward their own liv-
ing expenses.

after the drowning, he said the trou-
