been realized.
Made Record Selling Bonds.
During the drive for war funds
"kewpie" made a record on the
streets of New York city for her sale
Of Liberty bonds and War Savings
Stamps. She was known to many as
General Pershing, jr." She became
an ardent admirer of the general, and
her one hope was that some day she
would have the opportunity to meet
him personally. The opportunity
came last night, and it knocked but
once. That's all il had to.
Smiling and still blushing, General
PershinE, with his aide-da-camp, Col
0Dei Quackeneyer, who had accom-
panied him. returned to their seats.
In General Pershing's party were
members OF his staff and Senator and
Mrs. Warren. They occupied the
Presidents box. Time and time again
the general was given rousing cheers
by the audieRCe.
Ovation on Leaving.
When the General left the theater
he received the same enthusiastic
greeting with which he was received
when he entered.
A young woman in the foyer broke
from the crowd to say something to
him. A police officer sought to in
terfere, but the General himself
stepped in front of the policeman
and with military precision removed
his cap and shook hands with her.
Early this morning General PERISH
ing was at his desk in the Land
Office Building disposing OF a mass
OF accumulated business. He was
frequently interrupted by calls froEu
officials and Congressmen.

ALL SET TO
RECEIVE PERSHINC

Preparations at Camp Meade for the
reception OF the First division. with
its $4,000 officers and men, increa sed
the general activities of camp yester-
day. There is rumor that General
Pershing will visit camp soon after
the installation here Of the First divi-
sion. 1t is said that General Pershing
has not seen an American training
camp on this side of the water. as
they were not built when he departed
for France. and for this reason il is
believed likely that he will inspect
Meade.
It is also pointed out that General
Hutcheson, the camp commander. is
an old friend Of Pershing's and this
might influence him to visit this
camp. There is, too, the added in
dueement OF its proximity to Wash
ington.
The First division will entrain for
Meade Immediately after the parade
tomorrow.
