At the treasury, bestriding the wide reach of upper Pennsylvania avenue, stood the triumphal arch. At the entrance to the,court were the re- viewing stands under the old troes that shade the sidewalks before the White House. Setting aside military custom, Gen. Pershing and his staff arranged not to turn out of line until the last stand had been passed, when the program was to turn back to join Vice Presi- dent Marshall and the group of gov- ernment and diplomatic officials on the official stand before the \Vhito House.

March in Mass Formation. | Marching in m formation and | equipped with all the guns, gas throw- ers and countless other death-dealing devices of front line service, the First division, fresh home from France, moved along ‘the broad ave- nue, a living tide of sunburned fight- ing manhood that filled the street from curb to curb. [n their khaki and olive drab uniforms, the men | swung by as resistlessly as the spring | floods of the M sippi. Above each solid block of infantry, rose the grim line of bayonets, the blued steel glint- ing dully as it caught the light. Far- ther back came the long lines of field guns, French “75’s” to which French officers have said France owes her salvation and, after all the trains and wagons had rumbled hy, came a bat- talion of tanks, streaked and yellowed with paint to conceal them from en- emy eyes, but now growling and clanking their way behind the troops in noisy response to the cheers that sreeted them. Guns of AIl Types Used. There was nothing lacking to make the parade an epitome of the whole | vast army American skill and indom- itable will had created tc meet and beat the enemy at his own game. There were guns of all the types used in France that could be moved through the streets. Machine guns, big and little, bri 1mong the rifie- men: squat mortars to hurl bombs from the trenches; high mounted rifles which peered skyward as though still in search of enemv flyers. Some of the guns were horse-drawn, some trundled behind panting motor trucks or tractors. The show was as complete as the ingenuity of the war depart- ment could make it, a cross section of the'American Expeditionary Forces. But it was to the lines of khaki- clad, brown faced .men themselves that first interest of the fthronging crowds all along the wide avenue turned. The home coming of this first unit of Amecrican man power to cross the submarine-infested seas was in marked contrast to its silent, mys- terious, unreported departure, and the men and women alor the way seemed to feel the significance of the spectacle. They recalled the days when the nation waited in wordless anxiety to hear that these same smil- ing, free-striding boys had come safe- lv to a ¥rench harbor, those other | days when the first word filtered hack that the boys had begun to prove their courage in action and the slow coming lists that carried the names of the men who sleep forever in | France. .

A standard told the onlookers that at last thev saw the very guns whose thunder had car- ried that t message of defeat into the enemy ranks. Throughout the long line markers were frequent telling what the strange | implements of war over which they | floated re used far.
