I should prefer that Gen.

Several of the governors inquired what plans may he carried out for welcoming the boys as they come into the harbor, and Mr. Whiteside, who chairman of the Boston welcoming committee, replied that a verv cffec- tive “water welcome” may be carried out, and that boats will be provided to take down the harbor any of the governors or their official committee: The boats would be permitted close to the troopships before they docked, he | said, but after they are at the pier ‘it will not be possible to get very near.

He irged that divisional review be held, saying that no civilian in Massa- husetts has ever seen one and for at reason no one can comprehend hat it means There was strong indors suggestion that the men be al- wed to go direci to their homes fter the review.

They soon found line places and were among the most insistent in calling for Field Marshal Haig while the offi- cial party was lunching in Bucking- ham Palace with the king. High and shrill rang their voices: “We want Haig. we want Haig,” and when that failed to bring the commander of the British armies in France to the bal- cony, they led the refrain, ‘Haig, Haig, Haig.” As this did not get the desired re- sult, they finally gave it up and led the great crowd in singing ‘“Rule Britannia.” They were here, there, evervwhere, and were as much the spirit of the occasion as were the sol- diers, of whom great numbers turned out to welcome their chief.
