In .the Bois de Boulogne before 8 In the
morning, and were drawn up in that
part of the great park abutting on the
noble Avenue du Bols. The ceremony
proper took place In the avenue Itself.
A fine rain fell while troops and
spectators wore assembling, and th
Waiting from 8 to 6'o'cloclt was rather
'toying. The Italian representative,

that President Polncare was accom

ceived a great ovation.
Americans, Belgians, British, Greeks.
Italians,- Poles, Serbs and Czech-Slovaks
were all rapidly passed In review, and
then the President returned to the Ave

conferred on General Gulllamat and the
other generals who recently received
well-deserved promotion In the Legion of
Honor.
The ceremony was marked with great
emotion, which was only Increased when
the President conferred the decoration of
the Legion of Honor and the military
medal on a number of officers and men
belonging to the Allied armies.
But, great as the enthusiasm was be
" fore, it. was redoubled when the various
Allied detachments began their march

direct from the front and were in field
uniform.
It Is officially announced that more
than 110,000,000 francs were subscribed

Kti Amsterdam, July 16. Discovery that

Innumerable economists who repeatedly

Germany for fertilizer!.
The Government has Just presented

In the battles of this year, when at
the end of March the Germans came
like a river in a living tide against
the British defensive works, over
whelming the ftrxt lines by the. sheer
weight of men. thousands of French
civilians had to take flight from homes
suddenly menaced by this advancing
terror, and it was the courage of the
young girls, of the old people and of
little children oven, which revealed to
the British tiie spirit of this French
race, do contemptuous of war's worst
evils, so patient with any misery as
'ong as France herself may be saved.
They were civilians, whom the Brit

but after the first onrush of the Ger

French troops came to Flanders, stood

were no candy shops for their refresh

to some of the English troops. I talked
with some who were not too tired to sum'

There was one toldler among these boys

A RARE combination elsewhere, but the invariable rule
at this largest exclusive furniture Store in America.
When we began this Industrial Furniture Sale we con
sidered, primarily, the needs of the vast army of war work
ers lately arrived in our midst, for which houses are rapidly
being built houses that it is our privilege to transform into
homes. But we prepared for this Sale to meet the require
ments of every kind of home, from the unpretentious bunga
low to the most ornate and complete dwelling: filling our five
spacious floors and extensive warehouses to overflowing.'
And our preparations were not only extensive, but well
timed, for we foresaw the rise of costs and placed our con
tracts many months ago. It is for this reason that we can
offer our present Sale prices prices that would be out of
the question on the basis of today's market.
