About 1,000 men, practical

ment: Two large detachments
came in Thursday, arriving
from Camp Merritt and Mills.

American soldiers are so at
tractive to the girls of England
and France that the soldiers
of those countries are glad to
see the Yanks depart, accord
ing to Frank Fuller of Brad-!
ford, Ark'., who arrived here
for discharge. “Englishmen |
especially were jealous” said
Fuller, “they declared they
could put on an American uni
form and have a better time
with the girls of their country
than while wearing the Eng
lish uniform. Fuller said the
boys who didn’t get across
ought to consider themselves
lucky, though he is not sorry
be saw service abroad. The
Americans, said Fuller, devot
ed a great deal of their spare
time to baseball, football and
other sports, obtaining the nec
essary equipment from the Y.
M. C. A., whose secretaries
were instrumental in inducing
participation in wholesome
play.

If a house needs spring

can truthfully say that Foley
Cathartic Tablets are he best

in acion. I felt like I had been
