Second Social Evening in the Lobby for Seniors and Others. The second lobby social of the sea- son was held at the Y. M. C.

Buckingham, piano se- lections by Miss Florine Schofleld and Frank T. Maples made a hit with his coming readings. Refreshments were Before the Board of Trade at its mealns Wedm evening E‘d‘ ;lt_a; Wauregan - Houst Frank Johnson, who returned from Europe about 10 days ago, gave a vivid des- eription of his experis servations in France in the days that followed the mobilization orders last August. His remarks were followed with close attention and were warmly ap- plauded as he conl:lndsd his talk, which was as follow: Mr. President, Gunflamnn of the Board of Trade: One week beéfore Germany declared war against France, I rode from Pau to Osse in the Basses Pyrennes on my Arab-Barb stallion. Osse is a pictur- esque village of five to six hundred in- habitants about 20 miles from the Spanish frontier. 1 arrived Sunday, Aug. 28, at Osse. Late in the after- noon of the following Saturday the chureh bells in every village began to ring the tocsin and within an hour all the inhabitants of France knew that mobilization was ordered and war in- evitable. Shepherds watching their flocks on the steep mountain sides left their sheep to themselves and hurried down to g,,, village. Peasants work- ing in the flelds dropped their plows and returned silently to their homes. There was no disorder nor cemfu- sion. Sunday afternoon, Aug. 2, over 2,500 men left our valley to report to army headquarters at Pau, where their uniforms and guns were to be given them. Showed Patrictic Spirit. Each man was asked by the French government to buy for himself two pairs of strong and comfortable boots and to bring two shirts, two pairs of drawers, two pairs of sotks and two handkerchiefs. The government promised to refund the money pald for each man’s boots. Among the sol- diers that reported at Pau, almost as many as there are in our United States army, not one accepted the repayment of their shoes. This shows their patri- otic spirit. Rich and poor, peasant, professor, priest and banker,went without 2 mur- mur or tear at leaving héme, mother, father, wife, gweétheart or children. It was one of tle saddest and most in- spiring sights I ever witnessed and those brave French women, mothers, wives, sweethearts and sisters, wore smiles and spoke words of encourage- ment to help the parting. They have wept bitter tears since, and the end is not in sight. Sunda: Aug. 2, 75 men left Osse for Pau Mon- day, Aug. 3, over 100, and Tuesday still another class left and only boys and old men remalned. Horges and Mules Requisitioned. On the fourth day of mobilization all horses.and mules were requisition- ed and had to be presented. My horse was spared, being a stallion. No stallions were wanted. The horses were paid for in about two months and varied in price from 800 to 2300 francs, the maximum price. Only broken down horses and mules remained. Fortunately donkeys were not taken.

On leaving Pau for Bordeaux and the . United States we had to have a pass- port issued by the prefect of Pau| j: with a written permit to leave France, this duly signed and atunped by mu- nicipal seal. Passport Carefully Btruhmud. At Bordeaux our French had to be presented in person to the British consul, our other French pa- pers shown and our American pass- ports scrutinizéed most carefully and a visa, %Good to land at Liverpool,” stamped on the back of our Freach passports and signed by the consul across a two shilling sixpence consu- lar stamp. The steamer was boarded before docking in Liverpool and very polite British officials Inspected all our paesports and papers, asked how long we expected to remain in Eng- land, what hotel we were going to and on what steamer we expéected to We were advised to report at the po- lice registration office for allens within two hours of our arrival in Liverpool. A permit of residence was given to each one and a detailed history of one's family was noted undeér one’s name in a registry book. One’s signature full was taken, and on each person’ “permit of residence,” which was n.lso a laisses-passes, the imprint of one's left thumb was taken in ink- We were told to always carry this permit of residence with us and to report im- mediately should it be stolen or lost, and as we boarded the tehder to sail on S. S. New, York those three polite British officials took back the British permit of resfidence and wished us Godspeed. Much red tape is connected with laisses-passes and passports, but it is needed to combat the German system of espionage. I speak feelingly on the subject, as I was taken for 2 Gemman spy myself and for over 3¢ hours my life hung in the balance. German Spies Everywhzre.

France has become a huge united family, with one aim in view. Political parties exist no more. Class differences have ceased. Never before have the words one sees written upon French public bulldings seémed so true as mnow: s | Bgalite Fraternity. This is a war to the death. Either German imperialism must be com- pl etely crushed or France and Eng- 'and be exterminated. France and Belgium already know it and England is slowly waking from her sleep. Ger- many bided her time and chose her moment, but she was misinformed by her diplomats in spite of her myriads of spies. England was supposed to be on_the verge of cigil war. There is no more Ireland, Wales. Scotland or England, it is one united country and on the firing lines Scot- tish “ highlanders in kilts fight next Ulster volunteers and the flower of English nobility, while next to them dre the Hindo troops.

Had the Only Scattering Vote in State for U. S. Senator. Hartford, Conn., Nov. 25—The state board of canvassers canvassed the vote of the state cast at the election Nov. 3 today. The vote is for United States senator, congressmen, sheriffs, state senators and judges of probate. The vote for governor, lieutenant late and the 1513 crop was used up, All wheat was requisitioned and ground into flour for bread. Bakers had gone to war—there was no bread. Peasants of Pyrennes as a rule are not accus- tomed to bake their own bread. The 1914 crop was Tharvested by old men and women and boys and doled out daily at 6 a. m. by the mayor of the chief town of the arrondisement. ‘We had to ~o for our bread to Bedous, which was abaut one mile away, but most villages had to send from five to ten miles and pay cash for it. The head of each family had to send in a written demand to the mayor of his village stating how many adults and fo compete with British 2nd American meat extracts such as Lieblg and Bovine. Metal signs or posters were fastened every mile or two all over France advertising Kub. Automobiles owned by the Kub company became a familiar sight in the Pyrennes.

When war broke out the French found that these signs were placed at special places— 2 bridge blown up or a railway tunnel to be destroyed.
