But so far! as I am concerned, the French can cali us anything they like, as long as they let us go to the front for them.” While their General was being en- tertained at the Chamber of Com- merce banquet, the soldiers were sit- tng down to a repast in Neullly Bar- racks the menu of which follow: French peas, lettuce salad, chee: dessert and coffee. “Who said this country was starv- ing?" the men chanted as they waded into the feast. ‘This afternoon they were «ranted leave to stroll about the city and ev- erywhere one beheld the men in olive-drab arm in arm with the men in horizon blue.
