Nov. 1. — One place which many American soldiers visit In Paris is the British "Blighty Comer," offi cially known as the "Foyer du Soldat Anglais.” It Is conducted by a group of English and American women as a place where Canadian, Australian and New Zealand soldiers who cannot go home for their ten days' leave may find a welcome. It has all the facili ties of an up to date club, with per haps a little more of the air of "home" than an ordinary club. Tea is served every afternoon to all-comers by the * wives of British officers, and there Is every afternoon and evening a pro gram of music and entertainment. "My visit has given me much plea sure,” wrote the Prince of Wales in the visitors' book. “Ditto,” #wrote the Duke of Connaught. On the occasion of the Duke of Con naught's visit, the cheers of the Can adian soldiers were so lusty as to of fend the ears of some of the residents of a fashionable hotel in the Place Vendome nearby. They filed a com plaint with the police, but the police replied: "They are authorized to make as much noise as they please. The British soldiers were not told to make less noise when they blew up the mines at Messines." Twn(ce a week the men ut "Blighty Corned" are taken to visit the old corners of Paris An interesting inci dent occurred recently, when a party visited the church of Jeanne of Arc. The priest presented them with sou venir medals representing Joan of Arc. "But there are only three Catholics among them," he was told “It does not matter," replied the broad minded priest. "They will serve the same master and general." INTRIGUE BY THE TEUTONS BEING LONDON'.

It was Is sued shortly before Easter, and Is as 'follows: ■ J‘In view of the approaching holidays and judging from the example of for mer years, it is expected that Russians will come to us with presents. Their emissaries are to be well received and allowed to return to their own lines. Conversations, however, may only be carried on by officers. "Our officers, in such conversations, will take advantage of opportunities to point out to the Russians that those really guilty of the war are England France, that Germany and Austria have twice already made peace propo ' sals which Russia wished to accept 6nd only refused because of the influ ence of England.
