MEN IN FRANCE RECEIVE THANKS Rear (iilard Treated Much as Were First of "Pershing's j Crusaders" Herbert Adams Gibbons writing t the Philadelphia Press, says: The A. . E. F. is closing up rapidly in France.: and American uniforms are disappear- I ing as quickly as they began to ap- | pear in the trying davs of last spring. The M. C. A.. K. of C. and Jewish ! Welfare Board are going out of bus- ! iness. The American Red Cross is' giving up its palatial headquarters j at the Regina Hotel and moving over i to a little building in the Montpar- : nasse quarter. The change has been most sudden | in Paris. For the large number of i officers at the Sorbonne and connect- I ed with the central offices and the ] l'eace Conference kept up the illusion ] of a large American army remaining ' in France. Ana then, every officer! on his way to the Army of Occupation | or on his way home came via Paris ! and contrived to stop here at least j a day. But after the Sorbonne closed : and President Wilson went home and j Lift off Corns! Doesn't hurt a bit and Freezone costs only a few cents. sAf I? UjJJ With your linger!

Treaty of Versailles was signed, and the two reviews of the Fourth and the Fourteenth were over, American uni forms began to thin out. Now they are practically all gone—and within a few weeks! Except at the demobilization cen ters and the ports of embarkation, there are no American soldiers in France. Lines of communication have disappeared also, as the Army of Oc cupation is being fed through Hol land. ! There has been a distinct strength -1 aing and increase of the feeling and manifestation of the feeling of cor , diality on the part of the French now ! that we are going home. That is j quite natural. We were too numerous. I The A. E. F. had too much money to i spend and was too assertive. It was i pretty hard for French civilians to tind the Americans swarming every where, causing prices to be raised, i filling the trains and hotels and res i tafarants. Wherever Americans were numer j ous in France tand that was almost everywhere) they insisted on having ' the best of everything and paid for I it so lavishly that the French could ! not compete. Tours is an example. The French suddenly found their ; markets depleted, foodstuffs scarce, no chance of getting tickets for the i theater or cinema, all the tables in | their favorite restaurants and cafes i always occupied by American officers 1 and soldiers. | How would we feel under similar I circumstances? It is all well and ' good to exclaim that the Frenchman is an ungrateful cuss who begrudges the American anything—the American who came across the ocean and risk ed his skin and gave up his comfort i to help the French. But that doesn't help a natural and inevitable impa tience, which grows to resentment, when you find your benefactors in possession of everything in your own | country. Things are getting better again. I Now that Mr. Yank is not so numer- j ous he is immensely popular. All the ! feeling of gratitude for our role in ' the war has come to the surface, and the stragglers of the A. E. F. are real izing how warm-hearted and really' appreciative the French are.

BOYS HAVE BIG TIME; GUESTS OF ROTARY CLUB Playground Lads at Beaufort Farms, Where E. B. Mitchell (lives Fine Entertainment Sixty-eight boys of the city play- ; grounds were entertained by the Harrisburg ltotary Club at Beau fort Farms yesterday through the kindness of Ehrman B. Mitchell, the owner, who is chairn\pn of tne boys' work committee and one of the most active members of the or ganization. It was a great day. Ask any boy, old or young, fortunate enough to be present, about it. Next year it's going to be bigger, but it would be difficult to make it better. The boys assembled at the play grounds under their supervisors, having been chosen for good be havior during the season or for the reason that they excelled in seme form of playground activity. J. K. Staples, playground superintendent was heartily congratulated on the tine, upstanding lads he and his as- . sistants have developed in the city's i recrea/an fields, ltotarians in au- j tomobiles picked them up and took them to the farms, where they were met by Mr. Mitchell who entertained them With a tractor demonstration, showing the visitors how he plows an acre an hour, handling the bulk of the work of plowing, harrowing, cultivating, hauling and machine op eration on his 4 00-acres of farm lands with this one gasoline driven piece of motor apparatus. Apples by the Bushel from the fields the boys were es- j eorted by the ltotarians to "The Lodge," the Mitchell home, a hand- , some structure occupying a com manding position on a knoll not far from the Ilockville mountains, where the host had placed a half dozen bushel baskets of apples. The lads were invited to "go to them" and tliey did, like a swarm of bees about a sugar barrel, coming out of the melee with pockets, jackets and blouses loaded with enough fruit to keep an average family supplied for several ditys. The picnic was held in the woods and fields back of the Mitchell resi dence, where Mr. Mitchell and his fellow members of the boys' work committee had rigged up a shooting gallery, shotgun range, baseball dia mond, volleyball court and a dress ing room for those who desired to use the beautiful swimming pool which- is one of the attractions of the estate. The pool Is surrounded by trees and is from three to nine feet in depth, surrounded on all sides by tall trees, and is supplied by a pure, clear mountain spring. John S. Musser, in a brand new sport suit, gave the boys instruction in shotgun practice, whanging away for an hour or two at clay pigeons which members of the club fired from a hand trap and was ably as sisted by "Dick" Robinson, while Arch. G. Knisely, Jr., put the boys through their paces at the rifle range. About a million cartridges, more or less, were fired and there is lend enough in the hillside to-day to stock a fair-sized mine. Meanwhile the boys on one side the ltotarians on the other had got ten into a baseball game, of which Frank Consylman, was umpire, the men being beaten to a dizzy frazzle, despite the decisions of thg "ump" i which the boys pronounced, "very, i very rotten." But the real sport of the day was i the volleyball match between six i K ataiians on one side and the cham- J pion Sycamore street team on the \ other. The boys challenged the men i and they went to It "for blood," the j boys winning the contest three games | out of five. After a dip in the pool i to cool off all went to the woods at j the base of the mountain, where I S S. Rutherford, assisted by "Ed" : Weaver, had prepared a bountiful i supper. The hot dishes were brought I out in tireless cookers and the water ! melon for dessert in huge ice cream j freezers that kept it cold as ice. The ! boys were served by the Rotarians j who acted as waiters and after the | supper lollypops were distributed j while "Uncle Bill" Essiek, a former | president of the club, gave a brief I talk. Others who spoke were Wil ' liain H. German and Mr. Mitchell, who told the boys the history of Beaufort Farms from the period of j early settlement down to the present day. The president, G. M. Steinmetz, taught the boys the "Little Prairie Flower Song," which the assemblage then sang amid much hilarity. Af | terward the boys' playground chorus I got together and sang for the Ro tarians. receiving much applause for j their efforts. Charles W. 801 l led j the lads in "The Star Spangled Ban ner," after which the evening came to a close with a marshmallow toast around a big cumpfire.

To Examine Sale of Goods The committee will, spend several days examining in detail the bulk sale to the French government of i American goods, comprising $135,- I 000,000 worth of food and $137,- | 000,000 worth of clothing. Inquiry ' by the committee has disclosed some I confusion in the powers of the li quidation commission headed by j Edward B. Parker, of Houston, 1 Texas, and the mission headed by C. W. Hare, director of sales. The latter, however, although accom panied by a large staff of experts, appears to have no authority to sell any part of American Expedi tionary Force stocks in Europe. The contract with the French government for the sale of Army i stocks in France, which was closed jon Wednesday, provides for pay ment in five per cent, bonds matur ! ing in ten years and payable either in gold or francs at the option of the United States. Delivery of the goods sold must be made on or before August 31. The French | press comments favorably on the ! deal and at the office of the United j Secretary for Liquidation, it is con j sidered a very good one for France. ! Important quantities of foodstuffs I comprised in the transaction will be distributed in such'a way as to give consumers the utmost possible bene i flt - CASE HARDENED | "Papa," said a small boy to his par j ent the other day.

LOWER RATES WOULD FOLLOW ROADS' RETURN Executive Says Private Opera tion Will Increase the Traffic By Associated Press. Washington, Aug. 29.—After the return of the railroads to private | operation, the rate question will be | one of reduction rather than in- ] crease, Charles Elmquist. president of the National Association of Rail way and Utility Commissioners, told the House Interstate Commerce Committee hearing on railroad re organization. Mr. Elmquist said the question would not be one of increasing the rates, but of reducing them so as to permit the greatest flow of traf fic He added that the carriers would be returned to private management under the highest level of rates ever known and that they would not bo ! in any danger of bankruptcy with ' out aid from the government. I Views of the State Commissioners j on the railroad problem were pre- I sented to the committee by Mr. I j Elmquist. ' The committee also heard yes-| I terday the protest of Great Lakes | shipowners and their representatives ; against proposed railroad reorgani | zation legislation directing the In- | i terstate Commerce Commission io j take jurisdiction over port to port J or tramp boats. Harvey D. Goulder. of Cleveland, I : appearing for owners of tramp j boats, opposed control of such ves- : sels. Manufacturers of iron and steel, : Mr. Goulder said, depended on ore j transportation of low rates, a de j mand which he said was filled by i the tramp vessels.
