with gold stars, the music, brought
to the crowd the rea.'ttatlon that
more than two thousand II cw York
boys of the TTtb Division aro resting
under white crosses on the battle
fields of Prance.
This was really an Impressive fea
ture of the naradr, and appropriately
staged, giving to those who were
left behind their representation with
those who came home. After all it
was those who were left behind who
played a great part In winning the
war for they not only died fighting
with their faces to the foo but their
fate inspired their comrades to great
er deeds of valor.
Dy 10JO o'clock the crowd was four
and five deep along the curb. The
side streets were quite clear, the po
lice allowing trafflo into the avenue
every four minutes. Knights of Co
lumbua girls In blue gowns with white
caps and collar lined the avenue be
tween COth and 51st Btreets, carrying
armloads of flowers. Miss KttA K
Devltt had a. bouquet of American
beauty roses to present to 'Major
en. Alexander and Miss Helen Finn
had similar bouquet for Chief of
Staff Lieut. Col. Hugh Mcdee.
THE PARADE COMES QUICKLY,
BREAKING ALL RECORDS.
The parade come on the crowd all
at onoe, without warning. Arriving
at 56th Street at 10.37 o'clock, it
broke all records for rapid move
moot of a military body In this city.
The squad front formation arranged
by Oen. Alexander proved a big suc
cess. The men cume en mass, blng-blng-fclng,
their feet slapping the
pavement.
Although It bad been reported that
they were reluctant to parade, every
face wore a grin. The lioys knew
that the people of New York had been
wltb them heart and soul all tho
time they were away.
Knglnoers, Signal Corps, Artillery
went by, and the enthusiasm grew
as the column passed until, when far
down the avinue coukl be seen tho
(list ot bayonets, a moving field of
shiny steel heralding tho approach ot
the doughboys, the crowd was up on
Its toes. The grand stand throngs
stood up and bowled, for they knew
the story of the Argonne.
the 307th Infantry under command
of Lieut, ft T. Seldler. This pre
ceded by half an hour the body ot
the p'.mdv.
An Intcrcutlng Incident happened at
Washington Squoro where Oen.
Alexander, standing beside his mount,
was waiting for the column to start
Paul Esposlto, a member of the 307th,
came hobbling out on crutchaa to In
quire about the accommodations for
the wounded. Tho General shook his
hand and remarked:
"You're a little bit lute. A soldier
should not be late, but I guess you
can't run very fast."
At the Oeneral's request the Cap
tain of Police, who was in charge at
the Square, sent Espostto to the 77tb
Division Club to ride with the othor
wounded.
DOQ MASCOTS ATTRACT ATTEN
TION OF CROWDS.
Dors captured from the derm am
attracted much attention from ths
spectators. Behind the Division
Headquarters came a beautiful, long
haired, white Carman wolfhound
Dang. It was captured at Itau-
court by Private C. K. Oreen, who
led it in the parade The dog's
blanket curried two wouud stripes
and the names of all tho engage
ments of the Divisions. When cap
tured It bore a note asking relist. It
bit Green while he was unfastening
the message, but now Is his slave.
The "relloF' asked for was supplied
by the Division.
Another dog, Mustier, was with
Company D, MCtb Machine Oun Bat-
tallnn. It was captured near Sedan.
Its blanket bore the barn ot a Cap
tain, as it had bet ob red to a German
Captain. Beret. IX. J, Murphy, who
captured tho dog, led it In tho pa
rade, Tho bands rivalled one another In
playing old-time melodies. One ot
the roost touching of these Was the
strains of "The Old Oaken Uuokot,"
played by the SOflh ItefclmenUl Hand.
At Jtth Street the ttth Ileglment
Hand kept things lively with Irlsb
nlrn.
The part of the avenue above 17th
Street reserved for the wounded was
a colorful riot, for tho wounded
shouted at the top of their lungs as
the sun biased down on the great
est collection of Navajo blankets ever
Congregated at one time. The men
were In chairs or on benches, ac
companied by nurses, and cheered
their old friends to the echo.
Police escort and the f cortege In
honor of the Divisional dead reached
the end of the route fifth Avenue
at llOtb Street at ll. o'clock. Oen.
Itobert Alexander and his staff came
along seven mUtUtes later, at 11.27.
The commander of the division got
a reception calculated to make him
happy, and It did.
Commander and staff took up a
position on the easterly curve of the
circle at Fifth Avenue and 110th
Street, where Oen. Alexander re
viewed his troops.' It was the' end of
Gold Star Service Flags of 77th3 s Units,
Carried in Place of Honor in Division Parade
a perfect forenoon for the men, who
were grinning happily as they ap
proached that part of the exercises
marked The End.
MEN REPORT AT ARMORIES ON
TIME FOR START.
No bugler's notes were needed this
morning to assemble the heroes of the
Argonne. Defore sun-up thousands of
them were streaming from their
homes to armories. The 77th Division
en masse spent the night at home on
passes that expired at 7 o'clock this
morning. Not only were the soldiers
up bright and early. All New Tork
was up to see the big show.
When they reached the armories
they found the scenes there not unlike
theirs days In France. Field ranges
wero smoking, army bacon was sis
sling and company cooks were fussing
with kitchen police. The 77Ut had to
prepare its own meals. Thousands of
spectators got their first Idea ot army
culinary methods as they stood around
the camp kitchens put up outside of
armories where armory kitchens were
not available.
Field orders detailing arrangements
for to-day's great parade were read
to every man In the division yester
day afternoon, after which they weae
given their allowance ot tickets for
their families and told to report this
morning, spick and span and shining
like a colonel's orderly. And they
were.
Liaison officers wero at Washington
8auare. where tho parade started at
10 o'clock, before the police were
thero. At S o'clock, when the first
units reached their assembly point.
late rising folks of Washington
Squaro wero in tho windows throwing
clsarettes. aDOles and oranges to the
waiting lads. The War Camp Com
munity woikers passea among ine
men offering them retresnmenu.
Fifth Avenue from the Square to
HOth Street was aflutter, and in the
Bast Side and Harlem, where large
numbers of 77th men were uraiieu.
there was a mass of color for the
lions of the Argonne.
With Gen. Alexander at the head

The outstanding feature of a ride
up Fifth Avenue from Waahlngton
Square to the reviewing stand at
tid Street at 9:15 o'clock was the
absence of a crowd.
From tt.o Washington Arch all the
way up there was block after block
where tho watchfu' waiters numbered
only 200 or S00. They stood three or
four deep at the curbs, with room
enough between them and the build
ings for two or three baby carriages
abreast On tho side streets, for ono
block o.i either sldo of tho Avonuo,
one saw only policemen. Itoportors
estimated1 that at" that hour the crowd
was about 1-20 the size ot that which
greeted the 27th. ,
Fifty automobiles left City Ilall at
8.30 o'clock with stato and city offi
cials, officers of the Federal Govern
ment, the army and navy and other
distinguished guests.

OFFICERS ORDERED
TO ATTEND MAYOR'S
E
Many Obect Because They
Want to Go Home or Be- t
cause Hearst is Figure.
Officers or the 77th 'Division who led
their men through the lory blasts and
wire and starvation of the Argonne
without a crumble were plain and
plenty grouchy this afternoon as the
time came nearer when they, by order,
must attend the banquet of the Mayor's
Welcoming Committee at the Waldorf.
It became known at Division Head
quarters at Camp Mills last Sunday that
a large number of offlcers did not mean
to accept the Invitation to to-nlslit'
banquet. Many felt that to-night alter
tho "erade, was tho one night when
they would like to be at home, or at
least with companions of their own
choosing. Others were outspoken In dla
esteem of any committee for Itomecom
ing heroes which hod William Randolph
Hearst for chairman.
The objections were met by an order
from the Division Adjutant, Col. Oerow,
directing that company commanders be
informed that they would be held re
sponsible for the attendance of at least
four oflleers from each company at the
banquet.
The offlcers would not discuss the en
forced hospitality with outsiders, nut
outsiders In their Immediate vicinity
could not woll holp knowing that they
were discussing tho matter with empha
sis and freedom among themselves.
'I received an order to detail four of
ficers." said one Captain. "I did. I do
tailed two men who were willing to go
and two mora who couldn't posalbly be
thero and would have every excuso for
not having compiled with the detail.
How did tlio Mayor get that way? Who
told him mm who had been fighting
demons would want to liavo Hearst
kiss 'em on tho brow when they came
backr
Ool. It. It. McGee, Chief ot Staff, defi
nitely denied tho existence of u divi
sional order to go to the Mayor's Com
mittee dinner. Dccauso the Division
Commander knew many men would pre
fer to bo with their families to-night,
ho said, the Mayor's Committee hud
been told that not more then 600 of
ficers would attend the dinner. The of
ficers were asked to register for res
ervations, and more than GOO applied for
seats snd some had to be rejected, Col.
McGce said.
Altogether, the Mayor's Committee,
according to Its members. Is looking
forward to an occasion as brilliant and
crowded as was the 27th Division's
night ot theatre parties.

First of all the men of tho 77th to
turn out on this. Their Day, wero tho
Divisional wounded.
And first of tho wounded to report
at Sth Street and Lafayette Place
the old Astor Library, now thJ club
house of tho division was Capt.
Wardlaw Miles, ono of the Congrcsjl
ional Medal of Honor Men. Capt. Miles
left a Princeton professorship for the
war and came back minus his left
leg.
There wero only 57 wounded men
who cared to ride and thcio wore men
who simply could not walk. Many
who limped and everybody else who
could coax an6. K. out of thedoc
tora preferred to march with his
mates.
Capt. Miles, Lieut. John Flood (al
most proud of his new artificial leg
as of the Distinguished Service Cross
the folks urged htm to wear Just for

of the stretcher bearers who helped
to carry Miles off the flold), Lieut.

D. S. C. man), and Lieut. Pcckham
wern assigned to the first ot tho 2S0

The corner of 8th Street and
Lnfayctto Place Is about the western

wero surrounded for moro than an
hour before the parado started by
eager youmr people from that part
of tho town. They Inquired solicitous
ly how tho wounded men wero feel
ing and In Just wnat action they
received their Injuries. The men In
tbo cars ware glad to talk about
anything and everything except their
own exploits.
There wasn't a man among the
S78 apparently who had & grumble
or a "beet" about anything in this
wldo, wido world.
Lieut. John Flood, for example, the
D. B. C. man with a new leg, apol
ogized for being almost a minute
late.
"I've had all Kinds of bad luck this
morning," be said with a grin, "X

A playwright ot experience could

around the meeting between Capt.

surgeons said it was not to be
