NJ. clemencoau wa, told Tia
ancient Joke OF the stockyards about

everything about an animal except
the "sQueal."
What use do you make OF tn
odor?" was the quick reply.
American antiquity Is matter

naturedly ut the American relics uf

Although NJ. Clemenceau ia still
strong OF mind. he is far from Wig
orous physically. He walks Very
little and climbs steps only with
difficulty. He must rest a part u
each day as we'll as OF all OF each
night He generally retires about

he declines all alcoholic drinks. Ma
tive French wines have been offered
him repeatedly from private stocks
in America, but he has invarla bly,
turned down his glass. \ case OF
claret put aboard his private car has
remained unopened.
NJ Clemonceau finds pleasure In
meeting American children. particu-
larry American boys. He has been
touched by the attention paid him
by the Boy Scouts wherever he has
beer. Iio has had no military es-
corts on his present tour, but In
many places Soy Scouts have turned
out with n salute and n shout for
tho visitor. Worry gravely he returns
these salutes. uncovers before the

pcclally in an open car when the

twenty-five miles an hour. Ie says
this is not only dangerous. but It
dcprives him OF the pleasure OF sight

America to enjoy most.
NJ. Clcmcnceau wants America to

RESPONSE UNCERTAIN
TO CLEAIENCEAU IN u. S


AZ that. President Harding not
only proposes to entertain NJ. Glenn
cnCeau at the White House during
the visit to Washington. but when
mutual friend called upon the ex-
ecutive two or three weeks ago and
asked lr this part Of the program
should be followed. even though
many OF the visitors uttcrances
should not be to ;he taste OF the adj
ministra.ion. the President is quoted
as having said:
"It viii make no difference what

cause he may hold and express opin-
ions which may be contrary to our

Word Of this attitude on the part
Of Mr.. Harding has been brought To
NJ. Clcmenceau. and members Of his

him tremendously. lie regards that

knows: still it is rare thtr they are

NJ. Clcmcnccau seems genuinely in
tercsted in everything American.
And he is constantly amazed at tho
changes that have taken place in
this country during the nifty years
of his absence. The cities interest
him most. the canyons. called streets.
