They marched in two columns from

All OF them had been up since
o'clock. OfRccrs scurrled Tor nearby
restaurants. which soon became
jammed. The enlisted men adopted

didn't have to wait long.

Y. NJ. c. A. girls with sandwiches,
chocolate, apples and cigarettes. The
hungry soldiers swarmed around the
trucks. Each received two sand
wiches. bar OF chocolate. an apple
and package of>oiEarottes. That
appeased their ppetitcs momentarily.
but soon a mighty shout went up for
coffee or milk or something to drink.

The Y. NJ. c. A. girls. many OF
whom had seen service in France,

the soldiers were quickly put In

The next incident wRs rush for
the drygoods stores and shops In the
vicinity. Storekeepers for a dozen
blocks around were puzzled by new
demand--a new word In the CONNER
cial vocabulary OF Harlem. Hundreds
OF the men of the 18TH and 2sth regi-
monts wanted fourregeres. The clerks
behind the drygoods counters threw
up their hands in despair They'd
never heard OF fourregere.
II seems that the War Department
had only q few Of the decorations,
which consist OF a cord drapod over
the left shoulder. and consequently
most OF the men we're without the
coveted insignia. The 18th and 2stf

was so impressive that some thought
he was n British general, and they
asked each other who he was.

Of the division fell into line In the
order specified In the programme.
The decision to require the men TO
march with heavy packs was re-
sclnded yesterday. They marched
with packs. wearing steel helmets
and carrying Eas masks. The he'll
meta were vanished and polished
and every rife and piece OF equip
,msnt would have passed the inspec-
tlon OF even Gen. Pershing.
A crowd composed OF thousands,
10 dense II was dlfiUult to estimate
the number, jammed the circle at
10th street and the Avenue. They
packed the sidewalks to the curb and
lined the top Of the park wall Hun
dreds OF boys and men had climbed
park trees. Every window In the
vicinity was filled with watchers and
the roofs were black with people.

10TH STREET.
All those. expecting the parade to
start at 10th street, as announced,
were doomed TO disappointment. Not
one caught even a glimpse OF Gen
Pershing. who halted at lO6th Street
in accordance with the change In
plans. AS the side streets. TOO. were
jNmmed and progress through the
park was dlficult, these spectators
were for the most part unable to Eet
Wow Of the parade further down tho
avenue and consequently felt their
disappointment all the more keenly.
Many OF them had been occupying
their supposed vantage points since
as early as o'clock.
Major Gen. Edwin McGlachlln, the
commander, of the list Division,
reached 10th street shortly after 8
o'clock. His mount "W.hizzbang." the
pnspsrty Of Lieut. Col. shRnton, First
Field Artillery, New York Guard. was
turned over TO him. He mounted
Whlzzbang and spent half an hour
riding through the side streets on m
Informal tour OF inspection.
"rhis is a glorious day and a sad
day as WE'LL" said Gen. McGlachlin
Sad because It marks the beginning

LADIES'! SECRET TO
DARKEN GRAY HAIR
Use Grandma's Sage Tea and Sulphur
recipe and nobody can tell.
Brush it through hair.

Common garden sage brewed into a
heavy tea, with sulphur and alcohol
added, will turn gray, streaked and
faded hair beautifully dark and lux
uriant Mixing the Sage Tea and
Sulphur recipe at home, though is
troublesome. An easier way is TO get
the ready to-usa preparation I'M
proved by the addition of other in

avoiding a lot of muss.
While gray. faded hair is not sin

By darkening your hair with Nyeth' S
Sage and Sulphur Compound, no one
can tell, because it does it so natur-
ally, so evenly. You Just dampen a
sponge or soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair, taking one
small strand at a time; by morning
all gray hairs have disappeared.
