AMERICAN HEADQUAR
TERS ON THE BRITISH
FRONT, Wednesday, June 12
Field Marshal Sir bougies Haig,
commander-in-chief of the British
army In France, today reviewed the
American troops on a wide plain in
'this area.
The Americans filed past with an
easy swinging step that bore out
the opinion of many British experts
that they are as fit physically as
training can make them.
Parading Is Not Tbelr Forte.
Parading is not supposed to he
their strong point, but after a long
march to the reviewing ground ami
a long wait with their heavy packs
on their backa, their alignment,
step and carriage were excellent.
The review opened impressively
with a salute to tha colors while a
squadron from the Royal Flying
Corps flew over the field and did
some acrobatic stunts In honor of
their allies. Field Marshal Haig
stopped several times to chat with
officers while passing along the
line.
Doctors Have tittle to Do.
The medical officers hsve had
little to do thus far In this tone.
The health of thi men, whether
uartered in billets ot camping in
open, has been far above the
qua
the
average.
British officers believe that a
short period of study of the fine
points of modern warfare will make
the Americans ready in every re
spect. w.s-s.
A bill recently approved by the gov
ernor of New York provides that any
person mav humanely destroy cats
hunting or killing birds that are pro
tected by law.
