TO CHURCH FOR
HOUR OF QUIET
General Attends Services Dur

, - Song and Prayer.
r.
- Alden A. Evans tells in the El
t Paso (Tex.) Herald how General
Pushing attended church service
when he was in that. city one Sun
day not long ago. Mr. Evans writes:
' "At St. Clements Episcopal
church Sunday morning Gen. John
J. Pershing gave an hour to devout
worship. During the service no men
tion was made of the general's pres
ence. This was partly due to the
fact that the general himself desired
the privilege of a quiet hour in
, church for the sole purpose of wor
ship. "While the church which General
Pershing would attend had not been
- announced, it, was Tcnown that he is
a communicant of the Episcopalian
church, and it was supposed that he
would go to St. Clements. Enough
.. persons supposed this to crowd the
church and fill a hundred extra
seats. A score were obliged to
stand.-
"At five minutes after 11 o'clock
General Pershing quietly entered
- the churchj He sat in the center
section, eight rows from the front.
; His seat was not decorated. No
demonstration was made when he
entered or left the building.
Kneels in His Pew.
"The general, after he had been
seated only a few seconds, took out
his glasses, adjusted them and fixed
his "eyes on the big picture of the
Great Shepherd above the altar. His
next glance was at the hymnal as
the choir sang the processional.
"When prayer was offered the
general knelt in his pew.
"The rector, Dr. Fuller Swift,
- asked God's blessing upon the con
gregation, prayed for the men in
the army and that the United States
might be delivered from its enemies.
Then the congregation repeated the
Lord's prayer in unison, General
Pershing joining.
"The congregation sang the
'Star Spangled Banner' as the col
ors were held aloft. When the or
'gan sounded the first note the gen
eral straightened himself slightly
and kept his eyes fixed straight
ahead.
Puts Dollar in Basket
"Then the congregation joined
with the choir in singing 'My Coun
try 'Tis of Thee.'
"General Pershing listened attent
tively, as the rector delivered his
sermon, the subject of which ' was
.Thou has set my feet in a large
place.' 1
. "The general took part in all of
the service, including the offertory.
When the collection basket came by

dollar and laid it in with the other
