A Few Suggestions


London OCTOBER 20
THERE Is a place in London on the
1 Strand. where a great amount Of
excitement is made over the fact
that there is an American soda foun-
tain. I believe this opened up during
the war partly because anything
American was very much the vogue.
and partly perhaps because there
were a number OF Y. n c.. A. and
Y. W. C. A. huts nearby. and the place
fairly swarmed with American sol
diers.
