-One of the most fitting and elabor-
ate floats in the parade last Tuesday
evening during the Reunion of the
35th division. and. in fact, one of the
finest in the history of Topeka, was
that of the Inter-Service club of To-
peka. The club energetically put forth
an effort to bring back to the memory
of the Argonne victors, some of the
glorious monuments which they had
the pleasure of visiting while in
France. The Arc de Triomphe was
presented in miniature form, built en-
tirely over a two ton truck, and flood
lighted with a number of strong cleo
tric lamps. America was represented
by Mrs. Charles Joslin, who rode be-
meath the arch and carried with her
a torch of victory.
The Arc de Triomphe in Paris is
one of the real world wonders, being
at one end of Champs Elysees with
the Place de 10 Concorde at the other
end. Twelve avenues radiate from
this arch which was erected by Ma
poleon in 1906 with the boast that he
contemplated marching the entire
German army as prisoners under this
mammoth edifice. The grim irony of
fate, however, reversed Napoleon s
prophecy. for in 1871 the Germans
sent their army thru the arch with
