With the American Army In the Ar- gonne—A darky cook from® Alabama 4s turning out hot bully beef aud fried onions in Varennes in the ruins of the inn where Marie Antoinette and Louis XVI were captured by French peas- ants in their flight from the revolu- tlonists. The old: stone building {tself had fallen into decay long before this war. But the Germans had burrowed dug- outs Into Its cellars and some sort. of a German hendquarters was estab- Ushed there until the terrific bombard- ment that preceded our greatest of- fensive completely leveled the ruins, Varennes itself fell to the Yankees .u few hours later as the Germans re- treated to the ridge of hills, beyond. For a few days American tanks had their headquarters in the yard sur- rounding the ruins. Then the tanks moved up and colored laboring detach- ments established headquarters in Varennes while they smoothed over shell holes in the roads. What was left of one of the walls of the old inn » struck a colored cook as a good léan- to against which he could protect his fire from the wind and in a jiffy he «shad his kitchen going. Not..a single building fn Varennes has a roof. During the first four years of. the war the town escaped heavy shellfire,, though it was within easy range of French artillery. But the battering fire of our gans on the open- ng morning of the Argonne attack and the response from German artil- lery after we had captured the town laid the old church in ruins, flattened out the, modern dwellings along the riyer and sent strong buildingsein the center ‘of the town sprawling into de- bris.
