  THE BATTLE OF BOURGES!
  

  Twice each week, Mr. Bonnall of the YMCA
  

  staff chaperones a party of fifty Bucks from the
  

  Camp to the interesting and historic city of
  

  Bourges. The ancient and beautiful Cathedral,
  

  a relic of the twelfth century, is the main
  

  attraction for the sightseers, but of course
  

  there are other attractions. The Central
  

  Records Bureau, the Central Postoffice and
  

  several other A.E.F. institutions are located in
  

  the city which also offers excellent shopping
  

  opportunities and considerable entertainment.
  

  When "Merc" started out on this trip, the
  

  Art Ed told him to be sure and get something
  

  on the W.A.A.C's in his sketches. "Merc"
  

  reported the next morning, wearing a puzzled
  

  expression: he laid down his sketches and
  

  spake thusly: "Gee Whizz Ed, I looked all
  

  over the blame burg but I could'nt find
  

  anything that looked like WAX!!
