OFFICERS’CLUB
OF AMERICANS
TO BECLOSED
LONDON, March 14 (Correspon
dence of the Associated Press).—The
American Officers’ Club In London
will be closed next month, marking
the end of purely British collective hos
pitality extended to American forces in
England. Many Americans who have
been stationed in England say that
the British people have gone much
farther in their efforts to make them
contented and comfortable than they
could have expected, and are carrying
U ...1*1. * U i.L.nnnn* ..V
their stay here.
The Officers’ Club here probably was
the most notable achievement of hos
pitality. When American officers be
gan to arrive in large numbers there
was difficulty in providing club ar
rangements. War activities at Lon
don had resulted in clubs being over
taxed with British newcomers. At the
suggestion of Sir Harry Britain, who
had spent several months in the Unit
ed States in 1915, the Pilgrims organ
ization, of which he is president, un
dertook to provide a,club.
The palatial house of Lord Lecon
field had been obtained, and the club
was organized. It was popular from
the day it opened, and through it
American officers were given the op
portunity to become acquainted with
English people.
In entertaining Americans in their
homes Londoners did not confine them
selves to men they had met at the
Officers’ Club. Almost daily Ameri
can army and navy headquarters re
ceived requests that they designate a
few men for teas, dances or dinners.
A committee of the ministry of in
fromation devoted itself to entertain
ing Americans for several months.
The National Sporting Club was free to
Americans in uniform every Wednes
day. Vice Admiral Sims and General
Biddle, the American commanders, fre
quently attended. Theatrical man
agers arranged performances every
Sunday night at the Palace theater for
Americans in uniform. Theater tick
ets to many London attractions were
free to any American soldier for the
asking at any time, and hundreds of
men took advantage of this hospital
ity. Thi^| committee also sent enter
tainers to hospitals where American
wounded were receiving treatment,
and it provided theatrical attractions
at other English cities where Ameri
cans were stationed.

MILITARY TOURISTS
NOW FLOCK TO PARIS
PARIS, March 18 (Correspondence
of the Associated- Press).—Paris is
full of military tourists, personally
conducted though not by the usual
professional corps of guides and tour
ist agencies.
Americans, English soldiers, Can
adians, Australians and New Zealand
ers provide the chief mebership of the
sightseeing parties. Large sightsee
ing automobiles, termed in tourist
vernacular "rubberneck wagons,”
swerve through the streets of Paris
always filled with overseas visitors.
Then too, they have their regular
announcer who has acquired a fluent
speech in recounting tire wonders of
Parisian architecture. The Americans
are generally conducted by some rep
resentative of the Young Men's Chris
tian association, while the Britishers
are served by members of the British
women’s auxiliary organization.
There also is in operation for the
veterans of the wrar, a line of tallyho
coaches. These are in mo3t demand
because of their novelty for the Am
ericans. “Doughboys,” army nurses,
artillerymen, the army cook, and the
army blacksmith pile into the coach.
Perched high above the wheels, they
view the sights of Paris with holiday
gayety.
