British Native Troops Regarded Kindly by Frenchmen Throughout Whole District Behind Firing Line
BY GEORGE DUFRESNE. PARIS, Aug. 9. It is curious to watch the ease with which the new British Tommy Just arrived at the first stage of his remarkable foreign tour, his future as unknown as the name of the village in whicli he finds
himself, takes it all with as much composure as though he had never done anything else. They appeared unexpectedly in our Quiet place from nowhere in particular, filled the roas the barns and the homes and their khaki became as usual in our landscape as trees. In half an hour they were nursing children on cottage doorsteps, exchanging antique village pleasantries with old inhabitants, and occasionally with young ones, while waiting their turn at the communal pump; and were as reposeful in ancient wayside barns as though these weatherd oaken beams were put there by their forefathers. Some of them assembled in the principal streets, with combs, and one became a solemn bandmaster, and so they celebrated the occasion with music. It Is obviously difficult to worry natures of that kind. They look around them with quiet interest, gaze at premises labelled "Debit de Bolssons" with knowing intelligence, ask what boissons are, and go Inside. Give Night Concert. The last I heard of them was late a few nights ago, where in an old outhouse they lay on straw in total darkness, singing joyous songs quite new to France though the last tune they sang was of a different nature altogether and listening to them at an open window, it was easy for this countryman of theirs to know where their thoughts were. The next morning
they had disappeared bo completely that they might have been no more than an occurrence we had been dreaming about. They are well-liked here. There Is an nnHratanHlnff htwiwn ttlA 'FVAflCh
and our men which I should say is
unshakable, remaps tne rrencn oi the country districts find it even easier to get on godd terms with our Inian troops. The Indians are of a shy, modest, and gentle nature, and themselves living near to the earth. At home they have a certain kinship with the people of the soil. Their interest in French agricultural methods is frank, and their hosts welcome it. The Indians seem to find no difficulty with the language either. It is common to see them In easy and casual conversation with the French. One of their officers told me he discovered lately some of his
men talking Flemish. Indian Concert. This excellent understanding there is no need to point out its vital value though essential to the success of the common cause, yet could not have been ordered, like shells. But we have It. It was the best feature of the afternoon last Sunday, when a band of Pathans and Dogras, trained by a few enthusiasts of an Indian division, gave
a concert in the square or a consmerable town not so far from the firing line. The Indian musicians had bagpipes, and perhaps their French hosts imagined this was the wild music of the Orient. But it was the "March of the Cameron Men," "The Bridge of erth' and things like that. The first wail of the pipes filled the surrounding hous es with faces up to the attic windows, and drew . rapid streams of people down all the side streets. And what a memory for the French youngsters. Tall, lithe figures of Punjabis, Dogras, and Pathans in turbans and robes the colour of the desert, their sharp swarthy faces and curled black beards, playing Scotch reels on bagpipes with an increasing speed, the drums as convulsive as quick firers when the drummer was not putting a double halo round his head with the magic sticks, and shrill cries coming from odd corners, where there were men of all the clans, at every ecstatic moment.

HAT & MlUTAHV
Just as khaki has become the fashionable colors for men in the war zone, so have military trappings appealed to the women. This picture shows one of the most fashionable costumes turned out in a famous London shop. The hat is clled the "Jelllcoe," because it resembles the chapeau worn by Sir Admiral Jellicoe, the hero of the British North Sea fleet. The cape is in keeping with the hat, being of a military cut and color, dark blue. Fluffy laces and voiles have given way to the more substantial materials in women's clothes and garments are now designed with more of an eye to their servlcibllity than appearance
