CHAPTER XVIL (Copyright, 1918, William Fox) MMEDIATEL his arrival in Paris General Pershing was treat- ed with a deluge of invitations simi- | lar to that he had experienced in London—but multiplied many times.

All ance was wondering what America could do and how soon she would do it. nce was familiar with the tra- ditional reputation of America for “hustle”.

She had subscribed and oversubserib- ed in a space of days the largest loan of all times. She had taken up at the earliest moment the struggle against the submarines. With such speed in evidence France had a right to expect much.

Here the sword and the Grand Cross of the Legion of Honor which had been worn by the great French sol- dier were presented to Pershing for 2 moment. This signal honor France had never before bestowed upon any man. No Frenchman ever had been | permitted to hold these historic relics in his hand. They could be seen un- der the heavy plate glass, but until now they had not been handled since the time of Louis Philippe. General Pershing had been con- ducted to the crypt by Marshal Joftre, | who followed the precedent that only a marshal of France could remain covered in Napoleon’s presence. The | great key was inserted in the brass door of the crypt, and Marshal Joffre | drew aside while General Pershing faced the door alone. He paused 2 moment, then stepped suddenly forward and turned the key. The party entered. The gover- nor of the Invalides, proceeding to a tiny alcove at the side, drew out the sword and, after kissing the hilt, ten- dered it to Pershing. The general received it, held it at salute for a moment, and then he, too, kissed its hilt. As one of the staff officers said la- ter: It was more than a historic moment; it was epic. General Persh- ing at the tomb of Napoleon will live in history the same as Washington at Valle To hat Pershing was awed in the preccnce of the mortal remains of the great Napoleon does mnot ade- quately express his feelings. The very atmosphere of the tomh gave an im- pression of the grandeur, the vast purpose, and the domination that pos- sessed the living man. The stillness of the tomb, the im- ive ceremony, the reverence of s companions—even the tradition- ally military etiguette which Marshal Jofire observed—made the American general realize that here was a man who lived on, though long in his grave. The man he could his poli- and the soldier not help but admire. With cles, General Pershing naturally dif- | fered apoleon was essentially the conqueror, while everything Pershing rep ented w irrevocably deter- mined upon an anti-imperialistic pol- jcy. But in this tomb the American | soldier could feel Napoleon’s presence and the guiding hand of the great man as (To Be Continued) Found In !
