"The only thing that would serve the Germans [94] TROUPING FOR THE. TROOPS right," he said, "would be to give them a damned good licking and then give them France." The officer who stood near me pre- tended not to hear, but I caught a sly smile lurking around his lips and I remarked that the French scenery didn't seem to impress the doughboys as much as it did the American tom'ists. He answered that it was not the scenery that got on their nerves but tlie lack of sanitaiy plumbing, and he admit...ted that it would be a pretty hard matter for travel pam- phlets ever to '"sell" France to any of our doughboys.
"Come on, fellows," shouted this particular boy when he'd finally torn out the unruly root and given way to the mess sergeant who was waiting to lay his brick for the oven.
"I'm going down to the de-louser." The "de-louser" is the name the boys give to the public baths that assist them in separating themselves and their clothes from their cooties.
