EARLS COURT, 8. W., Sept. 26.
(Special Correspondence) One of
the verses of the doughboy's nat
ional anthem during the war used
to warble something like "Oh the
French, they are a funny race, par
ley voo," and so on and so on, I
don't know anything about the
Franco of war days, but the sentl
ment underlying that particular
verse certainly hasn't undergone any
great degree 01 cnange in tne meaii

"velomoteur."
If you hyphenate the word, and
analyze each part, you will lee ex

that'i it. One half velocipede and
one half motorcycle. It's nothing
mora or less than a slightly over
