Just a Week Ago

Paris, May IS (R - Just a week
ago Captain Charles A. Lindbergh
was winging his way over the At
lantic in his little monoplane, alone
with his thoughts. He was conf
dent he would reach tho goal -
Paris - but he did NOT know what
was In store for him in the way
Of adulation.
Today. as he made ready to say
an revoir to the city that has taken
him to its heart, he was closing the
most momcntous week of his life.
Unparalleled honors we're heaped
upon him in this brief week. In the
lapel of his coat he wears the rib
bon of the Legion of Honor, con-
terred by President Doumergue
his memory, modest. though he is.
must have a distinct impression of
cheering crowds gathered at his
every appearance to do him honor.
He has been received by statesmen
generals and diplomats, feted by
the elite OF Paris. and his daring
exploit has been the sole talk Of
the average citizen ever since he
came to a landing at the lie Bour-
get air field.
Poems and Ballads
Poems and ballads have been
written about him. and last night
at theatrical performance for the
benefit Of the families of stricken
aviators. an ode, ITO the Glory Of
Charles Iindbcrgh," specially writ
ten for the occasion by Mile. Je-
hanne DOrliac. was dedicated by
Cecile Sorel. the famous French
actress. Iindbergh was there. and
all eyes were focused on him. AS
he left the theater. he was greeted
by cheering throngs waiting in Il
downpour of rain TO catch a glimpse
OF him.
While his courageous journey
made him admired by all. his popu-
larity among Trenchmen has been
due in no small measure to his
sympathetic references to Captains
Nungesser and Coli; his modest
talk about their transatlantic at
tempt from Paris to New York be-
ing more difficult than his flight.
and his visit to Nungesser's mother.
Frenchmen We're impressed also
by his formal thanks for the well
come accorded him, given out last
night for publication particularly
in the French newSnaners Tn this
