tude for all that the religious
forces of the Nation had
meant in the life of the Army
and in the final victory.
While the church 1 was
privileged to serve was well
known, it almost took my
breath away when he agreed
to devote a part of that Sun
day evening for the purpose
we had stated, if the New
York City Committee could be
persuaded to release him long
enough from the ceremony
for which he was coming to
the metropolis.
What a scene it was, hours
before that Sunday evening
service. as throngS massed in
the streets about the church
edifice to see the hero whose
name was on all lips. OF
course the spacious sanctuary
was packed to overflowing.
In tiptoe expectation it was
a high moment when, at the
sound of the bugle, the gen.
eral of our victorious Army
and his staff moved down the
center aisle. At the chancel
he grasped my hand with ut
most cordiality and greeted
the church officials who stood
beside me. We entered the
pulpit together and the serv-
ice with hymns and prayer
proceeded with no other than
the General of the Armies
taking part that high hour.
He stood at attention while
the bronze tablet, with the
names of those who had gone
forth-Some who came not
back-waS unveiled. The hon.
ored roll was called. Then 1,
who had done so little to
bring victory. presented him,
who had done so much.
He spoke briefly and sim
ply. That vast audience
could sense that he was gaz-
ing. not just at that local
list of crusaders. but at the
vast crimson roll Of those
who, under his leadership.
had waxed valiant in battle
and put to flight the army
Of aliens. His unstudied
words within those hallowed
walls were deeply moving.
After such a climax which
none present could ever for
get, with the spell of that
memorable hour upon us all.
the general quietly withdrew
to return to the important
event which had brought him
to Manhattan. BY his rever-
ential action in thus coming
by his own desire to honor
the churches, and their part
in the victory. there seemed
to be by his very presence
and by the words he uttered
the sound of a great amen
to Lincoln's words, God bless
the churches. and blessed be
the Lord God who in our
great trial, giveth us the
churches"
So, for me, always there is
a Spire of the Spirit leaping
high over the remembrance
of this
Greatest captain of his time,
Great in SAVING common
sense.
And, as the greatest only are
In his simplicity sublime.
Old soldiers never die.
Their mantle falls on such
worthy successors as the
Chairman Designate Of the

Most letters which you re-
ceive are either in agreement
or disagreement on major is
sues in the news. Not so, in
this instance. Mine is a con-
gratulatory letter. Not until
this summer did I realize
what excellent coverage of
world, local and sport news I
was actually getting.
Much to my disappoint-
ment and surprise when /
read papers in cities in New
York. Pennsylvania, New Jer-
sey and Canada I found al
most nothing but local news
and stories of automobile &C
cidents and petty thefts. In
all the papers I read Except
The New York Times and
Herald Tribune) it was true
that they had lead stories of
national and international
events but not in the breadth
and depth of the Washing
ton newspapers.
1t took an experience like
this to make me fully ap-
preciate the splendid news
paper coverage I've been
getting from the Star.
