OVERSEAS UNIT
MARCHES IN CITY

The first unit of overseas men to
march up Pennsylvania avenue in
formation appeared today as if by
magic and thrilled spectators along
the thoroughfare.
Arriving without ceremony. the
4S4th Aero Squadron, just back from
France. left trains at Union Station
this morning. formed ranks and
marched to their barracks in East
Potomac Park.
The overseas caps, gold stripes on
uniform sleeves, the packs on backs
and a certain bearing told plainly
that these men were of the A. E. +.
There were no cheers. no bands, no
crowds to welcome them, but there
were smiles on the faces of the re-
turning soldiers and here and there
among the hurrying workers a woman
blew a kiss from her fingertips or
waved a handkerchief
There were officers and 145 men
in the squadron, including four Wash
ington men The unit has been cited
twice.
Tells of Units Work.
Lieut. Lancelot W. Suckert. of 26Ss
Woodley road northwest. the only
Washington officer Of the quartet of
District men, told The Times OF the
work that this squadron did in France.
Although we did no actual fght-
ing. our work consisted of erecting
advance airdromes for the American
aviators," Lieutenant Suckert said.
During the battle OF st. Mihiel our
men were constantly under lombard
ment. We found the men in our
squadron always ready and willing to
rived in France, we were assigned to
the First army. 1t was while we
were with this army that We were
cited for our work. In the general
army orders the endurance of the
men OF this squadron was praised by
our officers.
We were transferred to the Sec
Ond army. and during the drive at
Metz our work again received a cita-
tion in the general army orders"
Glad to Get Back.
Another Washington man, Corporal
Frederick L. Grover, a former printer
OF the Bureau Of Engraving and
Printing. told reporter for The
Times how the squadron endured
hardships in numerous battles.
Corporal Grover. who formerly
lived in the Beacon apartment
house. Eighteenth and Columbia road
northwest, said:
1t was a great hfe over there, but

does make one feel good"

ST. MARcARET'S NEWS
Rev. Father i. N. Samuel Beiboder,
Vicar.


Much qualification il felt at the
well-attended services each Sunday.
The increase Of strangers and visitors
ia an item for congratulation. The
vicar preached last Sunday en- Amos,
his time and works, contrasting con-
ditions now with especial reference To-
the progressive but immoral jewish
populace of Judah and Israel. The
book of Amos contains description
and condemnation Of conditions which
are rife today. and it would appear
that two thousand years Of Christian
civilization have not changed funua-
mentally the mind Of man from pes-
tial deprayity to human dignity. In
the people Of power and influence,
whether gained by guile or craft or
circumstance, show today by their
omen conduct their frantic desire to
retain among them this power anu
Influence. They mete out just enough
| to those little below their ilk, 60
keep that ilk from open outbreak ana
violence, while those different from
them raciaily they endeavor most as
tutely to relegate to the meanest and
most contemplate place in society,
land towards them show the most IN
tolerabie behavior There is o Tree
masonry among them to fix these IN
fortunate in permanent condition OF
social, economic, and political degra-
dation, and 90 stamp indelibly upon
them the notion of inferiority that
Encouragement and despair will force
them to resign themselves to TINS
calculated savagery Of Angio-Saxon-
ism.
When moved by the spirit Of God,
Amos travelled to Bethel and con-
demned the evil practices OF Israel
invited them 10 change their custom,
and substitute the good for the evil
and warned them Of the judgment g
the God Of eternal right who is aisc
the Father of all men. He was con-
demned. hated, called radical, point
al ont as d dangerous alien, and IN
vited BY the high priest to return e
his own country and there to pro-
phesy.n The very same occurrence
takes place today with the true pfoph-
cts Of God. The people cannot bear
their message It is too strongly put
II pavs too little heed to individual
proclivities and social amenities. II
confnses the face of The guilty surely
and IL among these guilty there
any Of power, then woe to the proph'
et who condemned and warned!
But God takes care Of his own
Courage IN the face Of threatened VIC

must not swerve from nor change tn
truth; he must hold fast to the mes
