PARIS, Sept. ST. loathe green
peas; my heart revolts whenever I
munich into them"
Thus cried out Marshal Foch
when he was a child and his mother
served him his portion of green peas
at the family repast. But the fu-
ture marshal forced himself to swal-
low his ration, and won maternal
victory.
Foch was born at TarbeS, Oct. 2,
1851. His father, Bertrand Napo-
leon Foch, was a solicitor, later a
paymaster and finally became a tax
collector. The different vacations of
Pere Foch caused him frequently to
change his abode, and young Ferdi-
nand Focf followed his studies in
different cities and towns of France.
The cradle of the paternal house
of Foch was at Valentine, little
bourg in the Pyrenees, where the
ancestors of Foch for years followed
the trades of weavers and cloth
merchants.
When the fate of the allied cause
depended upon Marshal ,Eoch, the
world passionately discussed the
proper pronunciation of his name;
some pronounced it as in Fosh,
others as Fock. The first pronunci-
alton is the proper one.
Given Serious Education
Young Foch had a serious educa-
ton. After his schooling Foch en-
gagged in the infantry at the begin
ming of the war of 1870 between
France and Germany. Upon the
signature of peace, he entered the
Ecole Polytechnique, from which he
graduated third in his class.
After two years spent at Tarbes
as second lieutenant, Foch entered
the cavalry school of Saumur,
whence he graduated fourth in his
class. In 1878 he was named cap
tain Of 10th Artillery at Rennes.
In 1888, Foch married a young girl
Of Brittany. Mademoiselle Bien-
venue, daughter of a magistrate.
Two years latershe entered the Ecole
de Guerre, and again graduated
fourth in his class. Foch then was
named to the command Of the 3rd
Artillery at Vincenees, then was
made assistant professor at the SUI
perior War College, and in 1890 was
promoted to lieutenant colonel and
made a regular professor.
Sent Away In Disgrace
Colonel Foch's political and re-
ngious convictions, which he has al
ways affirmed regardless Of any in
conveniences that might be caused
him, resulted in Foch being dropped
from the French War College for
several years, when he was sent into
the provinces in more or less dis
grace.
In 1911 Foch was named general
OF division and assigned to the COM
mand Of the 9th Army Corps at
Bourges, and in 1913 to the goth
<AAHAy wi 20 az Mainly oOJA 10, 4OATs
General Foch left for a vacation of
two weeks in Brittany, and it was
there that the mobilization order
that threw France into the World
War found him a few days later.
Physically, Foch is the Pyrenees
type, rather short, slender, wiry. He
has a large head; deep-set, gray
eyes, under bushy eyebrows, burn
out at you. He is nervous, some
what testy, concise in his language,
of somewhat rude approach. Foch
despises laxative people.
Quits Cigars for Pipe
But when Foch spends an eve
ming among friends, it is said Of
him: HE is dumb during the first
cigar, animated during the seq
pnd, and sparkling during the third

The Indiana University exhibit
this year has attracted more visi-
tors than in any previous year, &C
cording to Frank Elliott, publicity
director Of the school. Among the
feature exhibits are the mysterious
ball suspended in mid-air, the van
ishing rose, the colors which change
their hue, and the flame which has
peculiar reaction when certain
letters are spoken.
The corps of police and firemen
stationed in the horse barn has
been singularly inactive the first
three days of the fair. No fires have
been reported and only one arrest
has been made.
The Sunday program of the fair
included talk by O. ]. Jordan, Har-
risburg, Pa, secretary of agriculture
of that State, on farm life. He was
introduced by Guy g. Cantwell,
president of the fair association, fol-
lowing a program Of sacred music
given by the Indiana University
Band. .ef
Sunday school exercises were held
at a. m. in the Woman's Build
ing.
The huge locomotive, product
Of 1927 labors, and the tiny 1887
engine continue to hold the interest
of visitors. The Illinois Central
exhibit attracted throng through
out day. r.
A useful and convenient addition
to the diamond jubilee fair is the
small park fitted with benches under
the trees just inside the
pedestrian entrance. Many out-of-
town visitors add to their pleasure
in attending the fair by holding re-
unions with their home town folks
there.
Purdue University is taking valiant
measures to combat the corn borer
invasion of Indiana with one entire
corner of its building devoted to
educational exhibits. The de-
struction wrought by the past is ex-
planned and the latest and improved
methods of combating the evil
demonstrated.

the first early in the morning, and

1T MAKES ALL THINGS NEW.

While it seems impossible to say
anything new on the subject of Christ
mas celebration, the miracle of the
season is that the custom of nearly
1000 years makes practically all
things new. The aged become young
again through their rejoicing in the
delights of the grandchildren with
the things that once made their own
eyes open wide in wonder-memories
of their own childhood also come back
to them.
1t is not simply jest that papa
also likes to play-even though he
may say it is just to test them-with
the toys he buys for the youngsters.
Thus, while the holiday is particular
ly festival for the children, empha-
sizing the story of the Babe in the
Manager, it also has for the elders it's
pleasures and the wider significance
of that world-inspiring event in
Bethlehem.

JOESTING DECLINES IN.
VITATION, GRID BANQUET

Herb Joesting, University grid star
and All-American fullback for the
second consecutive year, has declined
the invitation extended by Coach AL
fred Lindesmith of the Sleepy Eye
high school, to attend the proposed
grid banquet of the Sleepy Eye In
dependent team. Joesting, who play
ed on the same squad with Coach
Lindesmith during their prep foot
ball work at Owatonna, sent word of
regret and said he was in on too
many banquets at the Cities, making
his time limited. AS result Of
Joesting being unable to come, the
banquet plans may be dropped entire
ly. The sum derived from the three
games played during the past season
will probably be used to start the
team out next year.-Sleepy Eye
