Without Excess
Baggage

On the way to my room | encountered
one of the labor group, who was wandering
through the darkened Railways in search
of the hotel valet. All males, when travel
ling I find, are divided into two classes.
One is composed of the kind of man who
carries more Clothes than he can possibly
use and says nothing about it, and the
other carries little as possible and takes
great pride in the fact My laborite friend
belonged to the latter class, and on this
account, or, perhaps, to oblge the commit
tee, who had asked US to carry only our
grips, was travelling with but the one suit
Of clothes he had on his back. AS we had
had a rough night on the boat, and many
hours on trains, and as he was to be inter-
viewed by the press of Paris the next morn
ing, his desire to set the valet to work on
the one suit was not unnatural. Through
the assistance Of two sleepy bellhops, we
at last found the valet, who faithfully
promised to return the clothes before
breakfast. Early next morning, when
went downstairs, l found the lobby al
ready filling up with the reporters and the
French labor leaders, who had come to
seek conferences with the members of the
mission. Most of the laborite callers wore
boards, low-cut collars. flowing ties and
black SLOUGH hats. In way, they reminded
one of a crowd of artists Of the Latin
Quarter, except that they were older and
much more fierce looking. The various
amateur and professional interpreters at
tached to our party had all apparently
oversight, and it was therefore up to me
to Lz11 ~ -
the lobby and loudly demanded the leader
Of the labor group. When human endur-
ancc and my knowledge Of French could
stand 1t no longer, having carefully
awaited my opportunity, made a dash for

others, laughed at the jokes about the young
men who, for one another physical de-
feet, claimed exemption from the draft. But
after | had seen what the soldiers of our
allies and of our own troops had to under
go in their daily lives, and quite apart from
the dangers of the front, l can no longer
see anything humorous in the man who
sought exemption through any disability
whatever. l am perfectly satisfied that it is
job that not only requires the stamina of
youth, but the stamina of perfect youth.
We arrived at the headquarters of Cen
eral Pershing just in time for dinner, and
although I had not the pleasure of dining
with the general, he was very kind and
gave me a fattering invitation to remain
on at headquarters, which, had it been
possible, I should very much liked to have
accepted AS he could only accommodate
a very few of the mission at his table,
certain members from each of the various
interests were asked and the rest of us
were most Hospitality looked after by diff
ferent members of the staff. So far as I
know, with one exception, every one was
perfectly satisfied with the ARRANGEMENT.
The exception was one of the party who,
it seemed, belonged to the same fraternal
organization as the general, and I rather
imagine had calculated that the day he and
Pershing met was to be his day. The
next afternoon this member called me aside
and, still gloomy and morose from his
disappointment, asked if knew what kind
of conspiracy had been formed to prevent
Pershing inviting him to dinner He ad-
mitted that the incident would rankle as
long as he lived, and the trip, so far as he
was concerned, was a failure. Which only
goes to show that the British and French
governments may turn themselves inside
out for you, show you their Grand Fleet,
their armies, their most secret war in
dustries, introduce you to their King and
Queen, their President and their premiers
and all their great statesmen, but if Cen
eral Pershing doesn't ask you to dinner,
then what's the use?
On our return to LondQp the various
members of the mission were sent in pairs
to the larger manufacturing centres where
they made speeches at public meetings and
at numerous munition works. That the
success of the mission was now assured
there could be no longer any doubt and re-
quests poured in from towns all over Eng
lard and Scotland, asking that members be
sent to address meetings. AS / was the
only member OF the mission who was not

at Rheims the Germans, for one rea-
son or another, refused to shoot in d.
'rection, although only the previous day
they had bombarded the city with unusual
"reminiscences. We whirled up to the Cathe-
dral, and then, as if all possible danger
passed, we were allowed to wander
about where and as we chose and at >ur
leisure look on the great tragedy. I no.
tced that the members Of the party soon
separated and each apparently preferred
to go his own way. The Cathedral Of
Rheims of to-day seems to inspire not only
silence, but great desire to be alone with
ones thoughts.
Our arrival at Verdun was gloomy
enough. We should have reached there
at o'clock, but it was IL before we fell
out of our cars and, very tired and stiff,
ploughed our way through muddy court
yard to the doors of the citadel And for
warmth and dryness, I can say, without
fear of contradiction, that the entrance to
the Verdun Citadel in no way compares
to the cosey, brilliantly lighted lobby of a
first class theatre; in fact, and for prob
ably very good reasons, it resembles moth
ing so much as a dark, dank, whitewashed
section of the Hudson tube and at least
during my stay, the asphalt floor was al
ways flooded by an inch of water. Our
bedrooms were ranged along a transverse
tunnel, and if not luxurious were per-
fectly dry. The rooms were separated by
slightly built partitions, about six feet
hight each had curtain for a door, and
the furniture consisted of an iron bed,
a chair and q washstand with tin mitch
er and basin. The man who had the cell
next to mine was rather vain, probably
on account of his good looks, and carried
hand mirror, which was fortunate. But
to have spent night at the Verdun Citadel
Pm sure l would have been glad to have
slept on the beHooded floor of the main
tunnel and gone mirroress the rest of my
days.

and at the same time keep them interested
and amused. He had not been with five
minutes after we had arrived in Liverpool
before every man and woman of the party
loved him. and what was more remarkable,
after those hectic six weeks they still loved
him and all Of them could have cried when
he left us. Of the many quaint things he
did for us, perhaps the quaintest was to
give US a luncheon at Whitehall Palace. To
meet the King and Queen and the Princess
Mary was no new idea-many Americans
had met the King and Queen and the Prin-
cess Mary, but no American, or no one else,
had sat down to a meal at Whitehall since
the time of Charles l.
AS matter of fact, no would partic-
ularly want to sit down to meal at
Whitehall. It's in way adapted to the
purpose and the idea would certainly have
occurred to no one except Campbell Stuart.
But the originality of the idea and it's diff
fculty Of accomplishment was what APP
pealed to our host and, also, Campbell
Stuart has an eye for advertising eaualled
by few and it was part of his days work
to advertise the American mission. He af-
terward admitted to me that it had not
Deen an easy matter 10 arrange, WHICH was
the only time I ever knew him to admit the
existence of such thing an obstacle.
However, we did lunch at Whitehall, and,
as IL to make publicity sure, we there met
the representatives Of the British Allied
and neutral newspapers. We sat in the
banquetng hail. from which king of
England had once walked to the scaffold.
The table was set in an aisle between
glass cases inclosing models OF ancient
ships. Over our heads were the famous
Rubens paintings, and on the walls hung

do not at all agree with "The Times"
which in its report described the luncheon
as frugal" However, the menu, I
fess, in no way compared with some copies
Of those Of the time Of Charles I, which
were placed before us on the table and
among other items, included marrowboncs,
roast leg Of mutton, carp, loin of veal,
fowls, pulets, larks, tart, meats tongue,
anchoyies, prawns and cheese. This op-
portunity to compare the present food sit

not reach the city until IL o'clock at
night. 1t was drizzling, there was no light
at all, and was stopped far from
where the committee was awaiting u.s.
However, we were finally discovered and
after our seepess night on the boat, our
busy day at Havre and the long train ride,
I fear we were rather tired and be-
draggled looking crew. When we had
reached the station we were ushered into
a small room where we were received in
the name of the French government by M.
Coliard, the Minister of Labor. 1t was
very small room, crowded to suffocaton

our weary features, and thereby filling the
room with smoke. Just as M. Collard fin
ished his address one of our ladies tainted
and would have fallen had it not, on ac-
count of the crowd, been impossible to
move an inch in any direction However,
soon as the crowd dispersed and the
lady reached the door she toppled over,
and was laid out on the damp, dark plat
form. The Minister of Labor and his
staff were most solicitous in their en-
deavors to restore her to consciousness, and
the men and women Of the mission rushed
about calling for water, but while there
other kind of spirits present, water as
drinking fluid in Paris seemed to be wholly
unknown. However, through the kindly as

similarity of it's forts to coal mines, and
has written about them much better than
I can ever hope to do. However, 1 should
like to say that no one of those whose de-
scrptions I had read had given me the
faintest idea Of the hideous devastation of
the devastated land or of the grim horrors
of the daily life led by the officers and men
in fort like Souville. Outside one plunges
and stumbles and pulls ones way, foot by
foot, through these mud-lined craters, and
under the ground one. with the body bent
double, gropes and slides ones way through
log-banked passages and breathes foul air
that stiles and turns one i'll. 1t is true that
all of our party were not young men, but
none were old men, and after two hours
visit to Fort Souville at least three of them
were very far from fit for several days. AS
a physical strain l have certainly known
nothing like it since l pulled anchor on
my college tug of-war team. Before Invent

the elevator and commanded the man to
close the door and in all haste to convey
me to the third floor, where the labor lead
er lived. Up we shot-that is if the word
shot can be used in referring to a Paris
ncenseuy-but, to my horror, found that
my ruse had been discovered and that the
pack of reporters, laborites, Socialists and
wildeyed bomb throwers were chasing me
up the broad staircase. However, I finally
beat then. to the labor leaders room, and
rushing in, closed the door behind me.
There | found the much sought for prey
clad in fancy silk shirt pair of drawers
and with large cigar clenched between
his teeth. "Where's that valet with my suit
of clothes?" he shouted and at that mo-
ment the door gave way, the news-hungry
pack of bearded men rushed in, surrounded
the labor leader, and in a great chorus
shouted their demands in what to the labor
lite was wholly unknown tongue.

were thirty-fve in the party and we drove
in twelve cars, each with two armed chauf-
feurs. 1t was quite an impressive sight,
second taXicab army, in fact, and Pm sure,
the best personally conducted party that
ever left Paris for battlefront For the
moment we had left far behind us public
meetings, labor and all other conferences,
and, l think, every one of us revealed in
escape.
Never have I seen anything so peaceful
or fair as the country about Rheims that
May morning. The sun shone from blue
sky, the birds sang and twittered as they
darted between the trees, men and women
here and there an ENHANCEMENT of barbed
wire or a freshly dug trench ran IN
straight line or zigzagged across a field
and turned the toilers back. A troop of
French lancers, men of middle age, cigar
cites hanging from their lips, their gray
blue uniforms worn and dusty, rode slowly
by, silent and unnoticing. AS if to accentu-
ate the stiffness, there came at intervals
the booming of a big gun or the sharp
rattle of machine gun. With haste that
appeared unnecessary and rather unseemly,
we dashed through the gates of the city
and along the deserted stone paved streets
On both sides of us there were the once
beautiful homes of Rheims, now only
wrecks of stone and plaster and gnared
pieces of grilled iron balconies. When we
were in Paris Big Bertha was silent, and

From Actor to
BeHh0p

One of the most delightful arrangements
of our hosts was to constantly send US
new set of men to entertain us and look
after our comforts. Apparently when any
one connected with the Ministry of Infor-
nation at London had fairly light day
on his hands, he was promptly dispatched
to the American mission, wherever it
happened to be, and told to cheer us up.
In this way we met several old friends and
many new and very delightful ones For in
stance, at Birmingham, George Grossmith,
tho actor. turned up in most becoming
naval uniform and proved successful a
guide as he is manager. l had always
been used to admiring and envying Gros
smith on the stage OF the Gaiety, sur
rounded by at least twenty beautiful show
girls, and IL seemed indeed cruel war that
would reduce this hero of the footlights to
carrying the handbags Of an American
mission about the corridors Of provincial
station hotel. But / must say he did the
job with his usual grace and sang-froid
and az II 10 be bellhop without tips was
the height Of his ambition.
II was Lord Northciiffe, ! believe, who
said that Colonel Sir Campbell Stuart could
not only pull of more impossible feats than
any other man In Crest Britain, but that he
could accomplish things that no one else In

the hero of the Marine received US was
small room, with red brocaded walls
The marshals scarlet and gold cap and his
cloak lay chair where he had thrown
them, which seemed to show that the room
was his workshop. Joffre stood behind
broad Louis XIV desk, which, like the desks
of all great men who transact an enormous
amount OF work, was quite bare of papers
When we had gone through the formal
presentation the marshals manner seemed
to say: "Now that that necessary but
lengthy formality is over, We'll all sit down
in these silk and gold chairs and talk it
over, like home folks" And as the marshal
talked we forgot the silk and gold chairs
and listened to all the kind things the
great man had to tell us of the pleasures
OF his trip to the United States and how
he loved its people for themselves and
for what they were doing for France. The
three things that impressed me most about
Marshal Joffre were his sincerity, his
frankness and his extreme youth. After
ward l heard his age, but have already
forgotten the number of years, and onlv
remember the youthful, friendly eyes and
the alert manner of simple, kindly
gentleman
The following day, at the Elysee, we were
presented to President Poincare by M.
Pichon. The staff was part civilian, part
military, and again attended by much pomp
and circumstance we passed through many
wonderful rooms of historic interest only
to find awaiting us another very simple
gentleman, who also promptly asked us to
sit down and talk things over at leisure.
Even the Presidents speech of welcome
took the form rather of a friendly chat than
formal address. For the Chief Executive
of great republic, with the greatest war
OF all history on its hands, and war which
was not going very we'll for France at the
moment, M. Poincare seemed to have moth
ing else to do that afternoon but to talk TO
nineteen Americans, as a whole, in prouns
and singly. Concealed somewhere among
the Presidents memoranda suppose there
was schedule which said: american
Mission-4:00 to 4:10," but neither in the
case of M. Poincare or indeed of any of the
great men Of France or England did | find
any one OF them who apparently had any,
thing else to do except listen to the mem
bers of our mission talk MS long as thew
wished, and, believe me, that was frequently
for quite long, long time.
We left Paris on gray spring morning.
long before the city was awake. There
