Gen. Pershing Back
From His Vacation
In the Adirondacks
Business Suit Fails to
Disguise Him From Ad-
miring Crowd Gathered at
Grand Central Terminal

General Pershing reached New York
at 1920 last night, after an eighteen
day vacation at Brandreth Preserve,
in the Adirondacks, where he was the
guest of General Fox Conner, his chief
Of staff, and Mrs. Conner. General
Pershing got big buck, did lot Of
work on his army reorganization plan
and his report to Congress, and came
back bronzed and rejuvenated.
1t did not take persons at the Grand
Central Terminal long to recognize the
erect figure in gray business suit and
long gray overcoat, despite the fact
that the black felt hat was drawn we'll
down over his eyes. 1t was amid a
burst Of handclapping and in the CEN
ter Of a magically gathered crowd
that General Pershing was welcomed
by his brother, James f. Pershing, and
other relatives and friends.
The keen fall days en- the beech
that fatigue which General Pershing's
friends had noted when he appeared
here with the 1st Division. Yet the
vacation was not all pay by any means.
Only two days out Of eighteen did
General Pershing devote wholly to
hunting. He got up at 8 o'clock, and
as soon as he finished breakfast set
tied down to work with the field clerk
and two orderlies he had taken with
him for that purpose. With the ex-
ception of the two days Of hunting,
every morning was devoted to the re-
port of Congress or to the plan for the
reorganization of the army.
Every evening also was given to this
work. But after lunch General Per
shing was out of doors daily until
dusk. Generally he was roaming the
woods with Ivan Stanton and RUDE
Carey, his guides, his rife in the crook
of his arm. Old Rube Carey, who has
spent thirty-six years about the head
waters of the Beaver River, averred,
according to Colonel John Quecke-
meyer, General Pershing's aid, that a
better shot than the General never
came into those woods.
General Pershing had nothing to say
except to deny a rumor that he was
married.
"That's perfectly ridiculous" he
said.
General Pershing spent the night
with friends and will go to Washing
on to-day.

o surround the part time evil with as
much secrecy as possible. Part time
means four hours day for some
pupils, three hours day for others,
and in some instances two hours day
OF actual instruction.
Part time in the jargon of the
