Sammy is still stralninK at the leash, lint he is beginning to understand why he hasn't yet been turned loose against the Hun.- Ho are our good friends, the French. At first there waf much disap pointment, on the part of borii the An.erican' soldiers and the French people, tl;et our first contingents were not hurried along to the firing line as soon as they had comfortably shed th'ir sea-legs. Said Jacques: "Monsieur, you ere Eios' welcome; but you were much lime coming. We have been fight inir ver'hard three years. Perhaps, is it cot so, now you what you call hustle some, to make the lost time?" Answered Sammy: "Surest thing you know, Frenchy. You can't make it too soon for us. Only let us at 'em, and we'll show 'em quick enough what they're up against." Doth have been disillusioned. The Sammies sensed it first. , It didn't take them very long to learn that they were densely ignorant of this new- Rtyie European fighting game. When tlie French Chasseurs and the Dritish non-coms from Aldershot started to instruct them In the up-to-dMe tricks of the war trade, even the veteran doughOoy began to sus pect that he warn only raw material after all. - And so. Sammy buckled down to hard work. And the trench people, too, are today viewing the situation in Its larger aspects.

' J I PAULINE LEDERLE have become impressed with the idea that perhaps after all it would he bettor for these men to be used as the leaven of the great force now steadily assembling on French soil, than to employ them on, the front at once. Also, that America can per form greater service for France by sendint to the front, when all i-i ready, a big, fnly-trained, adequate ly equipped, self-contained, self-reliant fighting unit, than to dissipate her stienKtli and Imperil her efforts by utilizing hero and there smaller rind less effective organizations. The French know that the Ger mans will know the minute American troops i each the font, and that the meeting will be anything hut a frolic for our boys. A single division, or even an army corps, might conceiv ably be cut to pieces if the Germans should determinedly -concentrate against it. and then, wP would have to start all over again. Hence, both Sammy and Jacques have been curbing iheir Impatience. So far as tlio "higher commands" are concerned American, British, French and Itali: n a thorough un-di-islanding exists. One may not say when, where, or how America's first real blow will fall; but It is per missible to predict that it will not 1-i ppen until we are so thoroughly prepared as to insure the most ef fective work possible for the A.'.'ies' and Amerisa's cause.
