I have seen more than 50,000 American troops encamped here waiting for em- barkation home and have conferred with scores of officers and many men just from the front. This morning T walked for miles on a solid boardwalk from tent to tent in which the marines are quartered and in the wooden barrackswhere the sol- diers sleep. 1 visited the modern Kitchens and dining rooms and saw where dinner for 5000 marines was prepared in one of the twelve kitchens, This large number is fed in forty min- utes, and just as many are fed in the cleven other kitchens. “I sat upon the beds of the soldiers and ate my midday meal with them. The meal was well cooked, palatable and plentiful, and tasted as good as any meal I ever ate in my life. The midday meal consisted of a large help- ing of roast beef, mashed potatoes, stewed carrots, rich meat gravy, bread pudding with raisins, two large slices of white bread and a large cup of coffee. Over the entiance of each of the dining halls is a large sign in French which freely transtated means that you can have as much food as you ant and go home right away. Iew asked for a second helping, for the first helping was more than most of the soldiers could cat at one time. “] noticed a few rosy-faced young chaps who came for another helping, just as they d been accustomed to {do with the food that mother used to serve them. “The soldiers f direc- hat the rt and r refer- permit the but vas au- in the ced of al con- world of this| the | on field a scale mar- o tion were happy when I told them that Rear Admiral Halstead had just received a message that the first of the German {ransports to carry American troops had been commis- sioned with a navy crew and that church | others would follow, the navy person- 1 nel already having arrived on this side to man them.
