FRENCH PUPILS
A sidelight on the experience of
members of old company M of Sa
lem, during tbelr atay In France,
as come Into evidence in the
French department of Salem high
school. Letttera have been writ
ten to Robert Huot, now 15 years
old, and attending the Lycee of
Henry IV In Faria. Allan Jones,
member of company M, who start
ed the ball rolling, received a let
ter from Paris yesterday thanking
him for what he had started.
"He thanked me for the numer
ous corresopndents he bad re
ceived," said Jones. " Said he got
a letter from a Salem high school
girl the day ho wrote."
it originally started In a music
store In the town of ltochefort,
France, on the Bay of Biscay. I
Rochefort was a base port tor the
A. E. F. Tommy Coatee and Allan
Jones, both of Salem, were play
ing the piano In the store, which
was owned by the elder Huot, ma
rine commissioner. The two
Americans from Salem attracted
the attention of the commissioner,
who Invited them upstairs. Jones'
acquaintance with the family. In
cluding young Robert Huot, who
was then 7 years old, began at
that time. Among other things
Robert learned to sing "Hall,
Hail, the Gang's All Here."
Last Christmas Jones sent a
Christmas card to Robert. It met
with a prompt rvpry, written In
English. "I am now grown up,"
wrote Robert, "and going to
school In Paris. Can you not send
me the name of someone of my
own age with whom I may corre
spond?" Jones reported the letter to J.
C. Nelson, principal of the high
school, who epoke about It to the
French department of the scbool.
The result was that several mem
bers of the French IV class, taught
by Miss Chrlstensen. wrote to
Paris. Up until this morning, re
plies had not been received, the
letter to Jones being the only In
dication that the letters from Sa
lem bad arrived.
Robert Indicated . that he was
much surprised to find that boys
and girls go t(Ube same schools In
America. They don't allow tbem
to do that way In France, he says.
Incidentally arrangements are
under way to have an entire
French class, taught by Miss
Townsend, correspond with a class
somewhere in France. Each class
member will write In hie own na
tive tongue, leaving it to the stu
dent at the other end to do the
translating. The correspondence
by Mies Townsend's class Is to be
done through a bureau In the
eastern part of the United States.
The Salem students who wrote
to Robert Huot are eipecting their
replies to arrive within a few
days.

Beautify Your Lawn
In order to keep a lawn in good shape, every
spring sow some fine lawn grass seed so that
it will keep your lawn thick and keep the weeds
out.
Then go over it with some lawn fertilizer.
You will be surprised at the difference in the
looks of your lawn in a very short time.
PLANT FLOWERS
There is nothing that makes a home attractive
as a lot of flowers. Even a small place with attrac
tive flowers often attracts more attention than
the finest place not properly taken care of.
We can supply you with all the finest lawn
grass seed, fertilizers and a complete stock of
flower seeds.
