A majority of the officers of the expeditionary force are acquainted with the French language and they ollowed each sentence closely. Poincare Affected by Spectacie., “It makes me very happy,” Presi- dent Poincare said, “to be able to bring today the congratulation of the French republic to this very fine army commanded by General Pershing and which I have just seen marching be- ner. It fllled me with emotion to see 50 many gallant officers and so many brave soldiers, who faced the dangers of the sea to come to the soil of France to defend the common cause of the Allies and to consecrate their lives, if need be, to the common cause of liberty. As President Wilson sald the other day we are all fighting for the same ends and the interests of the free United States are at stake every- where the Allied armies are at grips with the enemy, whether it be in Flanders, before Verdun, or on the Isonzo. “Today in all of the great. cities of America is being celebrated the an- niversary of the birth of Lafayette. Taday also I will visit the tombs of the heroes o the battle of the Marne, the men fallen in that advance guard of the armies which are now fighting for right and civilization. Thus our two countries are celebrating today two common anniversaries which must draw them still more closely together and Inspire them in the struggle in which they are engaged.” The president referred briefly to the flag fram the mayor of Philadel- phia to the municipal council of Paris and concluded his address with the cry: “Long live President Wilson. Long live the free United States.” President Poincare was warmly ap- plauded and then the officers gave three cheers and a tiger. The cheer- ing was taken up by the troops in the distance and continued while the pres- ident and his party were moving off the reviewing fleld. “What did he say?” was the ques- tion asked of one non-commissianed officer who stood near the party dur- ing the speech, when he he rejoined his command. “I do not know exactly,” was the “but I think he said ‘give 'em “That’s the stuff,” yelled a number of privates in chorus and the word ran all up and down the long khaki line amid anather outburst of cheer- ing.
