and Gima as "Gimat." Price is not

PARIS, Oct. 16, 1919.

FRANCE has just glorified
X Americas part in winning the
L world war by laying the corner
stone Of a great monument to COM
memorate the arrival of the first
American troops.
It is the replica of Bartholdi's Statue
Of Liberty in New York harbor.
The date of the ceremony was the
162d anniversary of Lafayette's birth
and the fifth anniversary of the first
battle of the Marne.
The site of the monument is the
same Pointe- de-Grave. in the mouth Of
the Gironde, from which Lafayette
sailed in 1777 and which was the first
point of land seen by the vanguard of
the American Army IN 1871 q
But while the name and address of
every American soldier sailing for
France, or ready to sail. will echo
through the halls Of fame, with exact
spelling-thanks to our statisticals
and the admirable new C. r. O.-for
future generations to point back with
pride in their ancestors, SO little is
known about the members Of that
other earlier expedition that it will
cause surprise to learn that I have re-
discovered five acts of embarkment Of
Lafayette and his party, containing
the names of twenty-one of his COM
panions. eleven of whom are quite un-
known, unheard Of, outside these docu-
ments.
The Lafayette expedition!
Still to-day only twenty-five dis
covered members!
Yet had it not sailed in 1777 would
the A. E. F. have sailed in 1917-1S2
It Is strange that none of the search
ers and historians who for nearly a
century have been gathering together
all the information they could find
regarding American Revolutionary his
tory and Lafayettes connection with
II should not have unearthed the ex-
pedition list.
List Was Large.
Tradition says It was rather large.
For example, 1t is known that fifty
young officers waited at San Sebastien
to join the Victoire and were "or-
dered to" pass back into France by
formal orders OF the King. But La
fAyette himself, arriving in the ship
at San Sebastien or Pasajes. found
similar orders OF the King awaiting
him ito pass on TO Marseilles"-and
We know that he did not do it. How
many Of those Pasajes- San Sebastien
boys went with him on the quiet?
It Is curious, in any case, that La
fayette himself. realizing the impor-
tance of his voyage, should not have
preserved. though secretly, at least the
names Of those who shared it with
him.
De Kalb, in his Letters to his Wife
(prtvately printed thirty-five years
Ego by his descendant, Vcte. de Colle-
vile of the Historical Society of
France). gives the names OF ten per-
sons who accompanied the expedition.
This number seems to have been
regularly accepted by historians as
correct. The encyclopedias all speak
OF Lafayette and his eleven compan-
ions, among whom was the Baron de
Kalb."

NEW YORK. Oct. 2,-Never have
fashions for little people been so at
tractive as they are this season.
The shops are showing the mos:
adorable things expressive of as much
character and individuality as the most
carefully designed grown,up frocks.
Two extremely party-fied dresses
for very small girls are shown in the
sketch, The ruffled one would make
yellow headed wearer look exactly
like rose. For the wee frock is fash
toned OF pals pink organdie, each ruff
fle rolled and whipped in deeper
shade. The yoke is hand shocked
while narrow bands of black velvet
ending In rosettes over each ear binds
bobbing curls in place.
Another party frock is designed for
q dark haired miss. 1t is made OF
white dimity lowered in Dresden
pattern of pale blue and yellow, A
baby blue sash of soft ribbon slips un-
der the box plaits which run to the
yoke both back and front. The yoke
is finished in a long and short stitch
of bl6e floss and the cut-out medal
lion flowers are whipped on one corner
of the yoke and one plat Of the skTs
with the same. The hair bandeau
matches the sash.
Both the above dresses are for chill
dren of about five years.
For-an older child is the kinder
garten dress of combined plain and
plaid material. This very simple lit
tie frock could be made by any moth
err. It has the added advantage of US
ing two contrasting materials, small
piece of each such as might very well
be left after the cutting Of couple Of
mothers dresses.

boy has blue linen trousers and lit
