IHALF an hour later when Chris
L Il telephoned the soberer view Of
life came back. Little Junior
Bakers fate was still in doubt. The
child had been bandaged and
treated by physician.
He was quiet now. Chris was do
ing what she could do to comfort
Min-ie, who was hysterical, utterly
useless in caring for the infant.
Chris voice betrayed the emo
tional strain under which she had
been working. 1t required ques-
tioning from Norma to bring out
what actually had happened to the
child and even then the tale was
incoherent.
The baby had, as usual spent the
day with the woman who lived
fight below Minnie and who was
paid to look after Junior each day
while the mother was at work. The
woman's name was Mrs. Sorenson.
Shortly after oclock-only
twenty minutes before Minnie
reached home-Mrs. Sorenson had
gone to the door to answer a knock
and the baby toddled into the
kitchen. There was steaming pan
of water on the stove.
In some way the child had over
turned the pan, been drenched in
the boiling liquid. Juniors screams
had brought the household. BY the
time Minnie arrived, a doctor had
taken charge.
One of the baby's arms was en-
tirely stripped of skin. His back
was burned badly. The doctors
most hopeful pronouncement was
that there was a bare chance the
child might live. Everything that
could be done to save it had been
attended to.
Now Chris was trying to Soothe
the tortured mother. She told
Norma that she would remain
through the night. There was a
neighbor sitting with the child, but
Chris felt she. too, was needed.
~ n
CHE was talking from a telephone
~ belonging to one of the other
tenants IN the building. Norma
wrote down the number so that she
might be able to reach her in case
of possible emergency. Chris cut the
conversation short as soon as she
had given the facts
III call you at the Office in the
morning" Norma promised. "Oh,
I DO hope the baby's going to be all
right"
How Intellectual the words seemed
compared with the fine, valiant
spirit with which Chris always
turned to help a friend!
For the third time that evening
Norma turned to climb the two
flights of stairs when the door of
the first floor rear apartment
opened, letting out slanting
wedge of light. Bessie HawthorneS
face appeared in the opening.
"Oh, Miss Kent" the girl called.
eyes, Bessie?"
The custodian's daughter came
forward. Did he take him, Miss
Kent? I mean the puppy. Did the
boy take him?"
Norma nodded. EYES," she said.
There wasn't any doubt about that
boy and dog belonging together.
You should have seen them"
Bessie smiled. That's good"
she said. Il was going to tell you

you couldn't keep the pup down.

paused dramatically-"did you get

What mesage?"
Didn't you get it? Goodness me

Now a Knight of the Sepulcher, disguised as
one of Nimmr, entered the south stand and
made his way toward the loge of Prince Gobred.
Bohun watched The knights of Nimmr were
all at the far end of the field engaged in the

An hour later. another great tourney was
over when the heralds announced the knights
OF Nimmr had won by the close margin of two
points. Amidst the shouting of the stand hold
ing the victory side, the Frontiers formed to ride
upon the lists and receive the prizes. AS they
trcoped down the field to claim the five maidens
from the City OF the Sepuicher, King Bohun
gathered his own knights aobut him, as though
preparing to ride back to his camp.

troops and stevedores. To see the
naval vessels and transports flying the
American flag in the harbor gave us
all thrill of pride. 1t was a pleas
ure to meet the naval commander,
Rear Admiral Albert Gleaves, who
was to have general charge of the
convoy system.
The regiments of the division had
all served under my command at one
time or another. They were now,-
however, composed of large percent
age of recruits and would have to CO.
through a long period of training.
After a few days spent in the Canton
ment at st. Nazaire the infantry of
the division was sent to the training
area of GOndrecOurt, north of Neuf-
chateau, and the artillery to Valdshon,
near BelfOrt.
Arrival "Tipped OFF,"
Maj Gen. William l.. Sibert, who
had won distinction as an engineer in
the construction of the Panama canal,
was in command of the first division.
The two infantry brigades were
commanded by Brig. Gems. L. L. Bull
lard and Omar Bundy, both of whom
had many years of line service behind
them. l had known all three of the
general officers, as we were cadets to-
gether at the academy, although all
belonged to classes ahead of mine.
1t had been arranged that the regu-
lations restricting reference to the al
lied armies by the press should apply
to the American forces. But to MY
utter surprise the French and British
papers, in their eagerness to let their
people know that the elements of the
American army had really reached
France, carried full accounts of the.
arrival of this convoy, giving the port
of debarkation, the designation of
units and the number of men.
Tighten on Censorship.
The publication of this piece of news:
was in open contravention of the CEN
sorship rules and called for immedi-
ate steps to prevent further infrac-
tons. My vigorous protest resuted
in our placing in the French press bu-
reau an American representative. to-
whom all matter regarding our army
was to be submitted for approval.
There is no doubt, however, that the
suppression of news prevented our
people from obtaining clear and con-
temporaneous conception Of the great
and often brilliant achievements of
our armies and left such knowledge
to be cleaned from meager accounts
by participants or from the later writ
ing of historians. 1t was unfortunate
that such rules had to be enforced, as
otherwise much that might have been
published at the time may never be
known, but there was nothing else to
be done without serious risk.

He said the department seemed to fear
attacks along our coast and did not
realize the danger to the cause in the
enormous destruction of merchant
shipping going on in European waters.
The admiral's report of these losses
was nothing short of startling, but he
thought they might be checked if he
could have a sufficient number of de-
stroyers. Without more of this class
of vessels, Sims was not sanguine over
the prospects of protecting our trans
ports. However, he made it clear that
every possible effort would be made
to that end.

My first and my only meeting with
President Wilson until after the arms
tice occurred May "a. 1917, when 1
called on him with Secretary of War
Baker. After some conversation with
Mr.. Baker on shipping, Mr.. Wilson
turned to me.
General, we are giving you some
difficult tasks these days." said the
President.
"Perhaps So" l replied, "but that
is what we are trained to expect, Mr..
President"
The President then mentioned my
experience in Mexico and inquired
about my acquaintance with France.
I8had expected him to say something
about the part our army should play
in the war, but he said nothing.
Promised Full Support.
Upon leaving, l said: MIR. Presi-
dent, appreciate the honor you have
conferred upon me by the assignment
you have given me, and l realize the
responsibilities it entails, but you can
count upon the best that is in me-"
To this the President replied:
General, you were chosen entirely
upon your record, and l have every
confidence that you will succeed; you
shall have my full support"
The President then asked me to con-
vey to the king of Great Britain and
to the President of France his greet
hn,
cordial with his poise and his air of
determination.
His assurance of confidence in me
was gratifying, but in the difficult stu
ations that arose later regarding the
manner of aiding the allies, he was
inclined to yield to the persistent i'm
portunities of the allied representa-
tives in Washington.
In the actual conduct of operations

this respect was to enjoy an expert
ence unique in the history of Ameri-
can wars.
Letter Making Him Chief.
May q, 1917, the day before was
to sail from New York. Secretary Ba-
ker sent me letter of instructions
concerning my command, authorities
and duties in Europe, which is quoted
in full:
"The President directs me to
communicate to you the following:
II. The President designates
you to command all the land
forces of the United States oper-
ating in continental Europe and
in the United Kingdom of Great
Britain and Ireland. including any
part of the marine corps which
may be detached for service there

mand are excepted the military
attaches and others of the army
who may be on duty directly with

"2. You will proceed with your
staff to Europe. Upon arrival in
Great Britain, France or any 9TH
zee er of the countries at war with the
imperial German government, you
will at once place yourself in COM

embassy and through its agency
with the authorities of any coun-
try to which the forces of the
United States may be sent.
