The Archbishop's party was oo sooner seated than the Cathedral chimes began “The Star-Spangled Banner” and everybody arose, Hun- dreds of soldiers came to attention. Thousands of men stood with heads uncovered. As Gen, Pershing and the members ot bis gaff approached everybody arowe again. The Cardinal, his height and #iimness gocentuated by a long ‘black gown, looked upon the spectacle with eager eyes. His lips trembled.

Many are, wonder- ing, because these two sisters, Miss May Pershing and Mrs. Butler of Lin- coln, Neb,, have been so modest and #0 disinclined to have the slightest ray of limelight fall upon their shoul- ders. All intervie and informal talks have been dehied repeatedly. If it had not been for a reception siven-at the Hall of States, No, 27 ‘West 25th Street, Tuesday morning, I should never have had the pleasure of talking with them. Mrs. Effie Losso Scott, Secretary of the Hall of States and hostess of the reception, pre- sented me to the sisters. Mrs, Scott is from Nebraska and a schoolgirl chum of theirs, and if she had not given this reception to her friends I doubt very much if they would have posed for the camera man. Both ‘sisters are tall and carry themselves as a General's sisters Pershing’s Sisters Shun Limelight; “‘We’ve Done Nothing,’’ They Declare iss should. Although their figures are similar, both being about the same height and apparently about the same weight, they are otherwise exact op- posites of each other, Miss May Per- shing is tall and blonde, with large | features, and Mrs. Butler is a decided brunette with much smaller features. Both are handsome women who would command attention wherever they went. They wore large black hats and black messaline and crepe de chine gowns, When they first arrived at the Hall of States they were ushered up to the “Nebraska Room,” where they talked over old times and girlhood days with Mrs. Scott. Then, Wefore the other members of the Hail aud guests ar- rived, they were taken down to the reception room, where a number of soldiers and sailors had collected. sisters of your General,” said Mrs. motion and shaking of hands.
