(La Veillee Des Armes): An Impression of the Spirit of France; Authorized Translation From the French In this little book one will find in the visuali sation of the typical incidents Of those hours (when the rounds of accustomed rites in home and street and shop seemed to make any break with the past impossible) the spirit Of those now memorable days - days which we of America bring into our own calendar, now that the sun is shining on the bayonets of our own brothers and lovers in France not far from where it shone on those of the men in sky-blue who lie many of them out in the valleys of the Marne and the Meurthe, of the Meuse and the Somme, beloved Of the skies but proudly held by the soil of France.
