For days before Wilson's arrival the
enthusiastic Bretons made ready for
his coming. Only one detail was lack
ing as the big moment drew near
they needed a special emblem to dis.
play which would be of peculiar sig
nificance to the President.

Monsieur LIE Presidente sets great

Sure" remarked a Yank stevedore
working at the pier. "Show the Presi-
dent an elephant Of some kind-it's
the emblem Of his political party"
The only elephant, or picture OF one,
in Brest was owned by the consul OF

his native land. 1t presented a white
elephant with clearing tusks.
So the flag of Siam was hung In
the sale de reception of Pier 8. The
courteous Bretons smiled. They were
ready to acclaim the President Of one
Of their allies. Nothing was lacking
to make the affair huge success.
President Wilson was smiling, too,
when he arrived. He walked into the
reception room and the first thing he
saw. in welcome. was the Siamese en-
blem. Also the emblem of the G. 0. p!
