PHILADKLPHIA, Pa., Feb. 28. The singing of popular songs by American soldiers on active duty "over there" is advocated by their superior officers, according to a U. 8. Marine Just returnd from France. He declares that most of the popu lar song hits of the day arc famil iar to the troops li; tho trenches and that thuy sing them at every opportunity. "Singing is a soldier's second nat ure," said the Marine. "It drives away loneliness and helps to enliven the spirits of the boys: The soldier who can pick a banjo or guitar is a welcome comrade in any camp, not only to the enlisted men but to the officers as well."
