and City Chamberlain Philip Berolz-
hcimer gave a signal to three police
officers to bring forward an American
flag.
Ladies and gentlemen, | am pleased
to present to you the greatest general
the world ever has known-General
Pershing," said the Mayor
That was enough. There was
thundcrous applause as the general
bowed his acknowledgment, his face
wrinkled in smiles. Turning to Daniel
&. Reid, to whom the general was to
present a flag he said
we are here to do honor to one of
New York's distinguished citizens Dur
ing this war the patriotism of the Amer
lean citizen has been shown in many
ways. There has never been in the his
tory of our country a more noble atti-
tude on the part of men to bestow gen.
erously than that manifested during the
recent war.
"Of those Mr.. Reid stands preGminent
in your city, and his generous acts that
we know of are sufficient to cause the
people of this city to recognize them by
the presentation of this flag. 1t gives
me great pleasure to represent the city
on this occasion"
Then the general handed over the
flag to Mr.. Reid, who among other pa
triotic acts, built and donated to tho

General Pershing likes kissing girls,
especially if they are about eleven
years old and incipicnt poetesses He
showed this last night at the concert
given in his honor in Central Park
when Gladys Perkins, of SGT West 171st
Street, aged eleven, stepped up to him,
presented him with shield and daint-
lily enunciated the following original
couplet:
Is a general more deserving for the deeds of
honor he has done?
Let us all appreciate him for the glorious
task he won.
The general sprang gallantly to his
feet, gave his service cap a circular
sweep, bent down and kissed the chi d
first on one cheek and then on the
other. Then he laughed and looked
happy. and although several thousand
people were craning their necks to
watch what he was doing and trying to
hold up umbrellas at the same time
they laughed too, and checred until
they were tired.
The Pershing welcome concert was
held under the auspices of the Mayor S
Committee Of Welcome. The New Y York
Symphony Orchestra played "Over

pearance and salvos of applause burst
forth. Going directly to the band
stand, he greeted Walter Damrosch

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1O.-Congress
will hold a reception for General Per-
shing at 2 o'clock September Is, it was
decided to-day by the Special Joint
Committee of the House and Senate
appointed to make arrangements. The
House chamber Will be used. although
it has been suggested that if weather
permits the reception be held on the
Capitol plaza in the open air since
the House galleries will accommodate
fewer than 1000 persons.
Aside from the presentation to Gen
cral Pershing of a sword and the thanks
of Congress the reception is expected
to be typically American in that there
VIII be speeches of welcome and
response by General Pcrshing, and then
a general Misunderstanding pleased to =
meet-you' reception, in which every
member of Congress will have an OPP
portunity to meet the general.
Invitations have been sent to all high
officials of the government and dipo-
matte corps A special reservation has
been made in the gallery for General
Pershing's relatives.
General Pershing will be welcomed
home in behalf of the Senate by Vice
President Marshall and in behalf of
the House by Speaker Gillett. The
honor Of presenting to General Pcrsh-
ing a gold sword has been extended to
Champ Clark. Democratic leader. Mr..
/ Clark was selected because he is the
veteran member from General porsh-
/ lngs home state. Missouri
A resolution extending the thanks Of
the American people to General Perish
ing was introduced in the House to-day
by Representative Kahn, chairman Of
the Military Affairs Committee. 1t
reads:
"Resolved by the Senate and House
OF Representatives of the United
States of America, in Congress as
sembled that the thanks of the
American people and of the Congress
of the United States are due and are
hereby rendered to General John j.
Pershlng for his highly distinguished
! services as commander in chief OF
the American Expeditionary Force
( in Europe and to the officers and men
under his command for their un-
wavering devotion and heroic valor
throughout the war.
"That there is hereby appropriated
out of any money in the Treasury
not otherwise appropriated the sum
of $4,000, or so much thereof as may
be necessary, for the purchase of a
sword of honor to be presented to
General Pershing on behalf of the
American people by the Congress of
the United States"
The only detail lacking in the plans
for the reception, according to House
mem bers, is the absence of President
Wilson from Washington. 1t was de-
sired that he be present to welcome
General PerShlng in person.
