has enjoyed since being away from that thousands of American Jews have been there this year-are still buying, buying, since her mark has decreased in value and bargains are obtainable in every thing.
 T bought a wonderful bag in Ger many for less than $2o-one of these overnight bags that in America would have cost $50. And had my self examined, heart and constitution, ana took several tests-for 25 cents",
 A little laugh followed.
 couldn't resist the temptation 10 tell everybody that was one time got my moneys worth It was the cheapest doctor bill I ever paid"
 They enjoyed all the baths--she ana Mrs. Redin and the children-which were really very wonderful, Mrs. Bowron said
 over in the occupied territory they were compelled to write ahead to be billeted in the hotels. These hotels are under the supervision of the United States, and so many people are going, it Is necessary to apply for rooms in advance.
 At our particular hotel there was an American proprietor. who saw that we had American German cook ing. It was simply fine, as were the meals on The America coming back home.
 No natter where We went, we found it impossible to feel animosity Tor the Germans, because of the way they behaved themselves. I was in- terested in the statement of many German women who said:
 Never again will we allow our of ficers and our soldiers to push us off the streets after we have seen the courtesy of American officers and men toward women."s
 Mrs. Bowron said American army men told her great many of Uncle Sam's boys are marrying German girls and immediately are sending them to America
 They are also marrying the French girls, but these marriages do not seem to be an equal success, because the French girls wish to stay in France. German girls are eager to come to America or to go where her husbands best interests are.
 T didn't like one thing that Ger man officer said" declared Mrs. Bow ron, but he seemed to think it was the truth, and seemed to have famil- iarized himself with what he was talking about. He told me-
 Ordinarily the American pr- yates who marry Germans are get ting far better class of girls than they could in the United States. They are marrying educated. thrifty hard working young women who are and capable. In Amer ica the average girl Is not so well educated as our own German women and are not such good housewives
 Mrs. Bowron emphasized that while she had had wonderful time away she was very happy to get home a gain.
 When we walked in I was amused at what my little daughter said: Mamma, our house looks like pal ace. doesn't it?' She Is only s years old and we have been for so long cooped up In hotel rooms and apart- ments she was impressed with it's spaciousness.
 Such Beautiful thing Mrs. Bow ron said: T couldn't. help but feel, with all the expressions of racial ha tired l heard from this race and that race, that really the settlement of the earths great questions no longer rest with men. Only God can settle it right. It seems sad to me that the world dream of democracy Is so far from realization. The world is now just seething cauldron of personal hates and fears"
 Among the places Mrs. Bowron loved overseas was Ehren Britstein With her party she was in Frankfort In Mayence, in Belgium. In the oc- cupied territory the double hotel room cost GO cents a night. and won drous meal could be purchased for an outlay of 60 cents. Mrs. Bowron visited Coblenz and Cologne-and came back home to land "at terrible Hoboken."
 She had the pleasure of travelling for while with MT, Bowron, her husband. who, with others. went abroad in the interest of French affairs and friendliness, partially as guests of the French A number of men went from each American state. Among those from Alabama, besides Mir. Bowron, were Courtney Henley, Matt and Lister Hill of Mont gomery.
 Mrs. Bowron went abroad ahead of her husband, sailing in May from New Y ork and landing at Havre. MT. Bowron went over in August, but re- turned to Birmi r.yham before Mrs. Bowron came home.
 T came principally then because ! didn't want to miss being with Jack at our anniversary" said Mrs. Bow ron. We were married 17 years ago
 when October 26 arrives.'
 The occupied territory Mrs. Bowron visited was Auderlach, Germany, where she and her sister had the pleasure of meeting Capt. W. c, sam ford, stationed there with the Fifth infantry.
 Our soldiers are surely fine look ing-the best looking soldiers over there." Mrs. Bowron declared. Its not surprising the German girls are falling In love with them."
 Just how long Mrs. Redin intends to live in Paris--where she has typical American apartment managed in Birmingham style. though with foreign helr--Mrs. Bowron does not know. Nor does Mrs. Redin, her self. who intends to go for wonder full trip little later to Persia and to Egypt.
