It was re- quested by the French government for experimental planting, to deler- mine whther it as suitable for French soil and climatic conditions. “A million and a quarter acres of forest in the north and east of France have been virtually wiped out during “They were cut down by the contending armies for use in trench building, for barracks, for roads for Y.

His idea was | to inspect the golf course, which, on advice of Rear Admiral Grayson, his personal physician, he will probably visit as often as time permits. The driver, who was unacquainted ‘with the route, missed the golf course and Mr. Wilson saw only the palace, re- turning to Paris in time for lunch- | eon. | Tomorrow night the president will attend the reception to be given by Ambassidor Sharp at the American embassy. King Victor Emmanuel and Queen Elena of Italy will be recetred at the Murat resideace between 5 | and 7 o’clock Thursday evening. * Today's reception was the last of the affai arranged wholly by the French government. Hereafter all Mr. Wilson’s movements will be ar- ranged for by his personal staff. His conference with Premier Jloyd George of Great Britain is still in- definite as to time, but it probably will not occur before the end of this week. President Wilson, who is a keen observer of people and'public opinion, is said to have been impressed by the hearty welcome of the French people as an evidence of interest in the prin- ciples he has express for the con- cert of the nations and the preserva- ton of peace. He is understood to be convinced that there are 2o differ- ences in principle between the peoplegy of the warring nations. HEADS HARMONY LODGE. | Frank ¥.
