They are indeed worthy of the hon. or which has come to them.
 My informant, whose word I value very highly, has told me that your team observed the rules accord ing to their spirit as well as their letter. Such conduct wherever it is observed must be a strong influence for upright and honorable behavior in all things. The American Legion is very proud Of these boys. and know that your community must be proud of them also.
 The fine sportsmanship which these boys have displayed can hard ly be spontaneous. It must have arisen out Of competent and con- scientious leadership. I am told that the boys were counseled. win or lose. 70 play the game clean and to be first, last and foremost good sports men. That is the type Of leadership that we wanted to develop through our baseball competition. It is bound to have its imprint upon the com munity as well as upon the boys,

Paris. Oct. Il GP-Queen Marie of Rumania on arriving in Paris had the usual woman's complaint-"no- thing to wear" Now she has too much.
 All her original trunks were filled to capacity and others have been ordered to take the creations of fa- nous modistes and milliners to the United States. So large is the queens new wardrobe that another baggage car must be added to the train which will take her and her party to Cherbourg tomorrow to board the Leviathan for New York.
 The royal party will make the journey to the seaboard in the same cars which brought them from Bu- charest. At first it was thought the cars were too large Tor the tunnels on the way to Cherbourg, but mea- surements taken by railroad men show that they will be able to pass through.
 The Queen is bending all her en- ergies toward completing her ar engagements 10 depart tomorrow. Ne worthless she is still having rela1a- ton in visits here and there in the city.
 Yesterday Marie visited the salon of the French Palette" to see some of the modern painting. and other works Of art there. Many persons who recognized her commented on her striking beauty, regal bearing, friendly manner and attractive clothes.
 The Queen spent so much time at the salon that she was unable to ob- serve all she desired to see at the automobile show which she visited later. She said this morning that she would try to get away from the task of experimenting the packing Of the additional trunks long enough to have good look at the latest mar vels Of road transport of exhibition at the auto show.

Paris, Oct II IP - Ratification of the debt funding agreement with the United States remains the foremost question of government policy, notwithstanding the protest made to Premier Poincare by rep resentatives of 100000 war vet erans yesterday against approval Of the agreement without revision.
 The press reaction today to the action of the ex-service men shows that the former combatants exer- else an influence that cannot be neglected. but it Is pointed out in official circles that the veterans are actuated largely by sentiment, while the question must be settled in parliament in the face Of exact ing realities.
 The veterans threat 10 oppose any members of parliament voting for the agreement may shake the fortitude of some recent coverts to ratification. but confidence is ex- pressed In governmental circles that the chamber and senate will hesitate a long time before upset ting what Poincare has already done of restore French finances, or make possible what he proposes to do to stabilize the franc.
