DR.. BUTLER PRAISES

Marshal FOch Is Guest of
France-America Society
at the Waldorf.
TRIBUTE TO JOFFRE
Allied Armies Indebted to
Him for Selection Of
Commander.

master, Ranks With World
Famous Messages.

Marshal Foch was the guest of the
France-America Society last night al
the Waldorf. There were other fea-
lures on his days programme, the
fulfilment of which might have taxed
younger men, but the distinguished
Frenchman was on hand smiling as
usual, when DR.. Nicholas Murray But.
Ter. president Of the society called
upon him.
Although among the more recent
functions to be arranged in honor of
Marshal Foch the dinner of the
France-America Society last night
lost nothing by comparison in point
of the warmth and sincerity with
which the guest Of honor was well
Gomed and acclaimed.
DR.. Butler in a stirring speech re-
viewing the glory of France and her
military leaders in the war struck a
popular note by kindly reference to
Marshal Joffre, whose visit as a MEM
ber of the French Military Mission
was recalled None showed keener
appreciation of this compliment to his
countryman than Marshal Foch.
DR.. Buffers Address.
1T would be as unfair as ungracious.'
DR.. Butler said, ito fail to speak of our
debt to Marshal Joffre, whose calm, sure
judgment of men quickly selected Foch
for the most responsible command and
hurried him to it, When the history of
the war is finally written it will be
known to all men how greatly the allied
armies are in debt to Marshal Joffre for
his wisdom and his insight in choosing
those who were to bear high RESPONSE
bility in the armies under his COM
mand." DR.. Buffers speech in full fol-
lows:
Tonight our society walks on the
high places of experience and of enthu-
sasm. At the very moment when the
tried and responsible statesmen of the
world are in eager conference to search
for the foundations of just and lasting
peace that will relieve the civilized ma
tions from longer carrying the stagger-
ing burden of huge armaments on land
and on sea, we assemble to greet the
Commander in Chief of the allied and
associated armies in the great war. 1t
was by reason of his genius that the
conference at Washington has been
made possible
IF the startlingly few kilometers that
lay between Won Kluck's army and Paris
on September S, 1914, had been ira
versed by the enemy; or if the armies
of the Kaiser had broken through across
the User to the Channel ports in October
of that year; or If the armies of Luden-
dorf had separated the English and the
French fronts at Amiens in March and
April. 1913: or II the heroic defence Of
Verdun had failed, we should not have
been gathered here. and there would
have been no conference at Washington.

The VIII TO Victory.
This is neither the time nor the
place to review the history or the war.
This is the time and the place to recall
those qualities of mind and heart. those
traits of character and those fruits OF
study that by their concentration n a
single human form produced the leader
that won the war. Marshal .'och him
self as professor of the Ecole de Guerre
had been teaching the profound truth
that not physical force alone but char
acter, strength Of win and the coLvic-
ton that victory was not only possible
but certain were the chief elements OF
success. All this he illustrated to the
utmost
Whether in command of a division or
OF corps or Of an army, or as Com
mander-in-Chief, 1t was Always the
same personality, the same ccaractcris-
ties, the same knowledge and imperturb-
able high purpose that were revealed
1T would be as unfair as ungracious
to fail to speak of our debt to Marshal
Joffre. whose calm, sure Judgment Of
men quickly selected General Foch for
most responsible command and hurried
him to it. When the history OF the
war is finally written, ii will be known
to all men how greatly the allied armies
are in the debt Of Marshal Joffre for
his wisdom and his insight IN choosing
those who were to bear high response
bility in the armies then under his
command.
THE victory has been won, and the
world is still with puzzled air con-
templating it's effects. While one great
problem has been solved. let us hope
forever, a hundred new problems have

Entered Contest as Theorist.

1.-THE historian of long ago could not
more accurately have described the
characteristics of Marshal Foch and the
millions of soldiers under his command
Strong and brave they were in body;
fearless and indomitable they were IN
courage and in sacrifice: but above and
beyond that they were inspired by noble
ideals, and their characters as well as
their bodies were the fit instruments OF
the will to win.
THE Commander in Chief had perhaps
never seen troops engaged in actual
combat before the early days of Au-
gust 1914. He had been lifelong stu
dent of the history and art of war, and
of those principles, moral and physical
which lead to victory or which compe
| defeat. He brought to the practical

French people in America, when the
American army began coming over 70

then in thousands. then in tens OF thous-

sary to ask the courts for permission

Young Girls Are Wearing This Model
for Dancing, In Satin to Match

In successful musical comedy. The
young girls are wearing the low
heeled model for dancing In satin to
match their gowns; a touch Of the
victorian, In harmony with wider and
beruffied skirts.
The favorite for street wear seems
TO be this lOw-heeled model In patent
leather. The fringed tongue, which
originally was used only Oh brogues,
mas been adopted for afternoon and
evening wear. White kid oxfords with
French heels arc shown with the
fringed tongue, and the latest adapta-
tion Is seen In a black satin slipper
with solid black satin piece, the
ENDS OF which are fringed with cut
steel beads. These are items that are
well to remember when one Is shop

From abroad come interesting ideas
OF the exploitation Of the black and
white vogue In the neckwear field for
the coming season. Organdie is still
the chief fabric medium, and touches
OF black are given by means Of black

narrow bands as often as edging, and
by chainstitch embroidery in black.
