That Hun advance must have been more intol- erable to him than to any other man in France. But he endured it, with], silent patience. At last his opportunity arrived. With a million Americans added, to his forces, and the kaiser’s army weakened by the steady strain of pre- vious drives, Foch made his plans and bided his time.

It has fine water, streets, etc., and a snow-capped mountain with a lake at the base of it, which is used for a swimming pool by the boys. The air is so heavy here that one can only see a short distance—would say about five miles; while that we left is so clear that one can easily see 150 miles. One would think that they had fog here all the time, 194 they say that there will be plenty of fog later. on. The civilian boy: around here haven’t much use for the ones in khaki, as the latter have! taken all the girls away from them. The bunch which left Casper on June 28th are so now that they don’t need any mother or sister to, ‘put their clothes and things where they belong, nor do they need anyone to wash or clean up after them.
