The "Victory Parade" at the American Base Hospital, Dartford, near London, on Nov. 11 when the signing of the armistice was announced. Many of the convalescent American soldiers in the parade carried noise-making insturments of such character as they were able to muster hurriedly.

The great variety of men whom one encounters in a big American Base Hospital is a continuous evidence of the manner in which the rank and file of the army represents the whole country. One of the patients at the Dartford Hospital, near London, is a wounded man who is always reading, and the books which he reads are enough to give a headache to an ordinary man. On this occasion when Captain Herbert Johnson of Boston visited him on a Red Cross errand, he had three books in front of him, one a work of Pure Philosophy, another a book of Sociological Ethics and a third, related to some obtuse theory of evolution. This man is a graduate of three universities
