Falher Duffy Sings Praises
OfAU of 69th Bul Himself
With a hroad smile on his tnnned
face, but his Distinguishcd Service |
Cross securcly out of Bight, Father
Prancis P. Duffy, gamo chaplain of
tho fightlng GfJth, came homo yester
day with his regiment.
The newspnpers had formed the habit
of calling him Chaplain-Major DufTy
"Forget tlint," ho said. "I'm Father
Duffy.
"I'm not u major, anyway," he
added. "1 waa promoted to that rank
by some A. E. F. order overseas, but
it didn't go. I'm like Kipling'a Private
Mulvanoy, who said '1 was a corporal
once, but I've been rejooced.' My rank
is that of captain. But rank meana
nothing to a chaplain.
"Of course"?and his eye twinkled
"there are certain thrille when you \
draw your pay voucher. However, I'll
stick to 'Father Duffy.' "
No Qulet Escapc for Him
. II was "Father Duffy" all right, and
no one elso, when the chaplain walkcd
off tho Hobokon pier. He had planned
to slip quietly away in an autom ibile
w ith Colonel Donovan to Lho llotel Bel
mont, But there w ai n't a chani e,
Pive hundred men, women and ehil
dren, communic nt of t he Church of
Our Savioar, I'he Bronx, ! ather Duffy's
old pastorate, were clamoi ng it ihe
pier gntos, w:ivi!,|v r.. and - houl in?
t hemi elves honrae. l i o pii sngi w1 > to
the pier encloauro ia vorj narrow, but
tt was all a dozi n hu . unrds and
military polico could do to koep ihe
throng from ruahing in.
The chaplain vent urod into i ho gato
way. In a momenl ho found I
sui rounded by a hilarioualj cxcitod
I'i'i'ii d which v\ ould nol he dcnicd ai
cess to their belo i i ? tor,
Hello, father," "Oh, father!" "Gco,
wc're glad j ou'i o 1 ai ' "
"1 seo you are,1' hc grinned, nnd
shook hands with a scon or two,
Guards Clear Linc of Rotreat
By thia time tl had cleared
a way behind it was ii < ble to do
so in front and Father Duffy re
treated to the incloaure, 'i he joyful
mob still stormed the gate, and it 'was ,
dccided to make a hasty sortie to the
ncxt one. But the delegation from
The Bronx was there ahcad of him. j
1: looked as if they'd have to call out
the police reserves to escort the chap?
lain to the street.
Finally .some accommodating sailor
had seen to it that the automobile was
brought around cloae to the curb bc
fore a third exit, still further up, and
the party succeeded in gaining it by
a quick dash. The machine, however,
was immediately surrounded and il waa
not until Father Duffy had grceted
nearly every man. woman and child in
the throng that it was able to start off.
Most of them hc calli d by name. It
I was "Hello, John," "How are you, Ed?"
"Are the babies well?" a hearty hand
clasp and the Duffy smile.
Not From The Bronx
One grizzlcd old man, not with The
Bronx contingent, who had apparently
: been lately patronizing some Hobi ki n
i bootlegger, walked unsteadily up to the
chaplain.
"Father Mooney christened mp," he
began, "in 1872
"He did a good job," quoth Father
I Duffy, lookintr him over.
During the time Father Duffy was
? marooned within the inclosure, his
i sister- Mrs. John Percy, of New Yi rk,
i greeted him. Other relatlves mct him
; last night at the Belmont.
With the Harrisburg a day from
j port, Father Duffy said an Eastcr mass
> Sunday and preachcd an Ea tei ?? rmon
, to the men. Thcra were also Epi copal
and general Prote tanl lervices on the
. transport. All three were well attended,
| Father Duffy said.
"1 preached of the triumph of Christ,"
? he said, "and told them how much
longer it had lasted than their triumph
would last."
Ueligious Feeling Dcepened
"Religious feeling has been deepened
among the men who went to war," he
wont on. '"Thero is no doubt about
, that. For America the war's duration
was just long enougn for that, and not
? ' enough to harden them, I was
' senior chaplain of the Rainbow Divi
j sion and all the others, of all faiths,
reported to me they had found the
? same thing true."
"What kind of rrlik'ion does the sol
dier like?" some one asked.
"He likes the old-fnshioned kind, and
? he likes it straight," i-ather Dufl'y re
0 plied. "He likes th< kind he got from
his mother. I don't mean merely the
men of my own. faith, but all of them.
? Jew or Christian, Catholic or Prot
? t. I found no demand among the
I troops for any new kind of religion."
Father Duffy declined right <>ti' tho
1 reel to talk oi his own exploits,
r "You were gassed, wcren't you?" he
' was asked.
"Aw, everybody was gassed at one
time or another," he replied scornfully.
The battle of the Ourcq, where for
three days, from July 28 to July 31,
Chaplain Duffy was under fire, he
wouidn't sny a word about,
General Pcrshing 1 ( somel hing
about il in a citation, wherein it is
stated that Father Duffy "despite a
conntant and levere bombardment with
shells and aorial bombs, continued to
clrculate In and about tne aid Btationa
and hospltals, creating an atmosphero
of choerfulnosfl nnd confidence by his
eourageou* and Ini pii Ing examj I
And thi re an- othor talcs liia com
radcs tell. One of them relates how
Colonel Donovan had to exercise his
authority as commanding oflieer beforo
Father Duffy would leave tho front
lines. Always he was ministering to
the dying, saying prayors over the
dead and spurring on tho fighters,
Like old Turpin, that doughty arch
bishop who served with Charlemagno:
"In Ood'a high namo tho host li. blossed,
A" -1 for ponnnco g-avo ihem to smlte
thotr b. at,
But it was of others onlv Father
Duffy would speak.
"Colonel Donovan," he declares, "is
the best fighting man in tho regi?
ment. lle is the coolcst, pleasantesl
man on the battlefield ever I saw. He
looks it over like a farmer looking
over a cornfield. And he is always a
gentleman."
Tho chaplain spoke feelingly of a
number of the 69th men who had been
killed in aetion.
"Of them all," he said, "I oxperi
enccd the greatest sense of personal
loss when Scrgeant Joyce Kilmer was
killed.
"Then there was Captain 'Miko'
Walah, a New Yorker, flftocn years
in the regular army. lle was first
scrgeant in the 5th Cavalry when war
I roko OUt. 11" was made captain of
i nr licadquartcrs company, but in
sisted on taking a Lne company into
itction at tho Argonne on Dctober 15
and was killed. We nll loved him t.w
his charactor, gcniality and soldior
sh ip."
Fathor Duffy said the people in the
Rhinoland, whcro tho OUth served with
lhe army ot" occupation, scomod law
ibiding and anxious to get on amicably
.vith their American military gov
?rnors.
+ They .lust Wanl Peace

rest of Germany.
Father Uulfy made it known that
one of the 69th's most important en
ragements had been rather ovcrlooked
n the dispatches.
"It was our first major operation,"
e cxplained. "We were with General
[iouraud's 4th French Army during tho
Champagne defensive, July 15 to 19,
Lieutenant Colonel Anderson Ied the '
regiment, It was the most terriflc bom
bardment we experienced in all our
time overseas, and it was this fight
of the 4th French Army and the Rain- .
bow Division that really broke the Cer
man morale."
So insistent were the well wishers of
Father Duffy to grcet him last evening
that he barely managed to snatch a
few minutes for dinner. Later he
called upon Archbishop Hayes at the
archiepiscopal residence.
"What are your plans for the fut
ure?" the fighting chaplain was asked..
"i'm still a soldicr," he said. ".last
now I'm serving the United States, and;
when this is over I'll be back serving
the Church again."
Jeirish Troopers in
69th Regular Fighting
Irish* Says Donovan
Surrounded by reporters, photog
raphers and movie men, Colonel Don?
ovan was posing patiently for pictures
and ns patiently answering questions
about his "fighting Irish" and their
dceds of valor in France, when a non
commissioned officer appeared before
him on the bridge deck of the Har
risburg, salutod, and reported:
"Sergeant Abraham Blaustcin with
a message from the regimental intel
ligence officer."
"Blaustcin V" repcated a reporter, fa
cetiously. "Blaustcin, Irish?"
"No. ,lew," answered the colonel.
"We have a lot of .Tews," likewisc some
Lutch I mean men of German birth
or extraction- and a few Indians, but
they are al! more Irish than the Irish."
Then il became known that Blau?
stcin, of somewhero on Rivington
Street, was one of the first men of
the 69th to win the Croix de Gucrre,
and that ho has a brother, Ilarry, also
, a sergeant, and in a platoon of" Com?
pany A.
Not only that, but among the re
placements that came to the regiment
at various times were Milton Cohen,
a crack machine gunner, and Louis
Goldstein, another Kast Sider, mess
sergeant of hcadquarters company,
who captured a fancy German rolling
kitchen, from which rte fed virtually
the whole regiment during the battle
which resulted in pinching olf the St.
Mlhiel salient.
"And don't. forget ilarry Bootz,"
said the colonel. "Major Bootz was
born in Germany. Three of his broth
crs died ns soldiers of the German
army. llut there Is no better Irish
mi M in Lhe regiment. Ho Ied our first

IAK GEORGE KIRCHWEY, New
York State Director of thn
United Stntea Employmont Service,
makes public this little message to
tho cmployei a of New York:
"The fact that 5.G00 men of the
77tk Diviaion, now on its way back
from the battlc line, have significd
their necd of help to find jobs, and
that for over 8,000 of these no jobs
have yet been found. puts tho situa

tion squarely up to you, Mr. New
ever, to believe thai all of these men
will promptly be taken care of on
their discharge. But thia faith can

ergetic and unremitting team-work
on tho part of you cmployera of the

It was prccious freight that the pa
trol boal Correction boro out into the
golden sunshino and the blue waters of
the II ud on yestcrday mot hera of men
who lie in France; kinfolk of'thoso
who will never sail proudly hoi o
mothi r's joy, t hough I hey would never
agnin welcome their own. There was
tho mothcr who had lost two son;
who yet could say: "Well, thank God,
1 havo at least one boy coming home.
Think of the poor'mothera who havo
last four." There were women proudly
wearing the decorations of the men
who will never come home and some
of those who yesterday came home.
Black-Garbcd Figurea Come
As early aa 7 o'clock in the morning
black-garbed figurea began to cross
the gangplank of tho Correction. All
of them wore the insignia of the 69th.
Many of them carried flaga and pen
nanta. If they could not wi lcome their
own boys, at least they could wclc ime
their sons' pals. All morning they
haunted tho decks ofthe boatand com
parod notea with each other. The
Women'a Auxiliary of the 165th Regi?
ment saw to it that they had refresh
ments. A deputation of thirteen nuns
from Father Duffy's parish was on tho
boat.
It was after 1 o'clock when, with its
strings of gay pennants fluttering in
the breeze, tho Correction, bearing
some 700 passengcrs, slipped quictly
out into the river in the wakc of the
| Police Patrol boat. It was a perfect
: day. The gold-tippcd waves lapped
gently at the how of tho boat. Tho
Manhattan sky-line was clearly chis
elled against a deep blue background.
Wecp ns They Wave Flags
The Harrisburg was sighted at the
, ei.trauco to the Narrowa. It was the
; si^nal for an outburst of cheering
from the (".old Star Boat, which went
on with never a break but with fluctu
ating momentum until the tran p rt
glided quietly into its dock at Hobo
keh. Women with teara streaming
down their faces waved aloft their
"Erin Go Bragh" banners. Tho band
played "Home, Sweet Home" as the
slim, gray monster, with its 1,800
tioopa abpard, came up alongside,
There were cries of recognition as tho
- patrol boat travelled along under the
wing of tho transport. There was dis
appointment when it was found to be
; some one else. Women held up signs
; welcoming Private Tom Jones and Ser
1 geant Bill Brown, until their arms
ached. They Bhouted themselves hoarse.
Sirens blared and an aeroplane shirred
overhead.
The heroes of the Ourcq and Chateau
Thierry stood in solid phalanx by the
railings of tho transport. Handkcr
chiefs fluttered. The Boldiers waved
and checrcd and indulgcd in antici
pntory pantomime by affoctionately
hugging each other. Home again! But
it was good.
Welcome to Father Duffy
Standing beside tho Bilken rogimental
colors far aloft stood Father Duffy, his
head bared. His name was on every
one'a lips. Buttbns <>f welcome to
Father Duffy adomed every lapel.

nPlIE miles of grandstand which edgo
Central Park in Manhattan and;
Prospect Park in Brooklyn are uscfuli
"s well as unornamental while they,
await their burdena of cheering thou?
sands who will greet the 77th Diviaion i
nlong its line of march. At frequent
intervals branches of hugo trees on j
the border of the park stretch out,!
making fragrant canopies for patchcs j
of the stand. Each evening as the)
springtime dusk darkens into night |
pairs of sweethearts detach them- :
selvea from the city's busy midst and
find welcome seciusion in the newly ,
leafed bowers?about flfteen feet from j
*he gleaming ribbona of Fifth Ave- j
nue and I'rospect Park West, with I
their incessant streams of traffic. The
aroma of tho budding sprigs neutral- ;
izes the unromantic smell of gaso-!
line. Prying eyes are very few be- j
causo pedestrians would hardly con- j
ceive the grandstand as a "lovers'1
lane," and probably wouldn't look if
they did.
