NATION PAYS
HIGH HONORS
TO ITS HERO

while the great crowd came to its
feet with a roaring welcome that
lasted for two minutes. Mr.. Cool
idge tried to begin his speech of
welcome, but had to sit down un-
til the thousands had given their
welcome to the young fier.
Then Mr.. Coolidge tried it again
with more success. But his speech
was interrupted with applause ev-
cry time he alluded to the aviator.
When he mentioned Mrs. Lind
bergh, the crowd came to its feet
with applause and cheers and a
demand that she stand up. The
President turned to her and she
arose, bowling and smiling.
The ceremony of presenting the
flying cross crowned a reception
such as the nations capital never
before had given to any person,
no matter what his rank, station
or accomplishment.
AS the chief executive pinned
the bronze medal, the first to be
off, on the lapel of the blue
sack coat of the worlds hero, a
mighty roar went up from the
thousands upon thousands.
Delivers Message
Secretary Davis of the var de-
partment handed the cross to Presi-
dent Coolidge in a blue box, and
The President pinned it to the la
Del below the French decoration
the legion of honor. Then the
.wo shook hands and Lindbergh
ldvanced to the microphones to |

With cheers and applause. I
When he had quoted them, lean a

Here the speech was broken by r
