Pershing FulfiIls
Hope of Ancestor

Greensburg, Pa.-Gen. John j.
Pershing fulfilled the wish OF an
ancestor that II member of the
Pershing family should save AL
sace-Lorraine when he led the
victorious American armies
against the Germans. This fact
is disclosed by Rev. Justus N.
Pershing, n cousin of General
Pershing, who has made public
a letter written in AlsaceLor-
raine more than 200 years ago
by Frederick Pershing, General
Pershing's great-great-grandfa-
Their. In this letter the generals
ancestor expressed the hope
that his son, Frederick Per-
shlng, Jr., or his descendants,
''would come back some day and
redeem the fair lands of Alsace-
Lorraine from oppression"
According to the letter, the
Pershings lived in the village of
Kehe in Alsace-Lorraine in IVA
and fought under Emperor
Charles against the Magyars.
Soon after that, when a law was
passed that all able-hodled men
between the ages of sixteen and
fifty must join the landwehr to
protect their country from raw
ages by the Austrians, Frederick
Pershing, ST., sent his son to
America. Frederick Pershing,
Jr., reached this country In
1749 and, after marrying a Miss
| Wyant in Baltimore, settled In
Westmoreland county, Pennsyl-
vania, where General Pershing's
grandparents were born.

Care in Addresses
Often Wins Trade

THERE Is great interest In
Latin America in American
goods OF all kinds. In trade
lists Il will be noted that many
names OF firms in South America end
with an initial, as for example I:
Francisco Carbonell W., Hernondo de
Castro p. Cha. Business houses in
the United States should use this mi
tial always. as II is important for
two reasons and serves a definite
purpose.
The principal object of the initial is
to avoid confusion OF names and mail,
kilograms, &C.. caused by many per-
sons having the same name, the mi
tial serving to distinguish ono family
from another. This condition ema-
mates from the fact that In the early
times there were few wealthy fami-
lies, and these became interrelated
by marriage. which accounts for the
great number OF similar surnames.
Given names arc also often similar.
due to the custom of naming children
for the saint whose fiesta day Is ap-
proximate to the birth day. Also
very often family names are given
children. Another factor is the price
of family connection found in all
Latin American contries.
The last initial denotes the mothers
surname, as, for example: fernando
de Castro p. y Cha. fernando de
Castro (Palacios) y Cha. fernando
de Castro's mothers family name
having been Paiacios.
This matter is one OF the small
courtesies which go to mako up a
successful business relation
