the battlefront and devastated re-
gions, visiting Chateau Thicrry
and Rheims. At the close of a
tour that took him through a. doz-
en razed villages, ending in the
ruins of the historic cathedral at
Illicinis, he said:
“No one can put. into words the
impressions I have received
amongst such scenes of desolation
and ruin.’
That was Mr. “1 ilson s only ex-
pression of his feelings after a trip
that every Frenchman has been
hoping he would make before he
takes part indeciding what is to

devastation of Northern France.
Accompanied by Mrs. Wilson,

part-y, Mr. Wilson left the Murat
residence early today and motored
to Chateau Thierry, where lunch
was eaten. The party then pro-
