2 WARM WELCOME IS GIVEN KING ALBERT [Continued from First Page.l street and the great throng burst into cheers and huzzas that roused the echoes. Market street looked well despite the mist. The crowds, the flags, Belgian and American, intermingled in the decorations stretched across the highway and on the business buildings, gave the scene a holiday air. The cars swung out Market street to Front, up Front to Maclay, out Maclay to Second, down Second to the heart of town and thence back to Front street and up State from Front to the capitol, where the party left the machines at the main en trance of the Capitol and proceeded through the rotunda to the second floor. Children Wave Flags All along the line of march pupils of the public schools waved Belgian and American flags and cheered and sang as the party passed. The boys and girls stood well back toward the curb arftl conducted themselves most admirably. More than one of the. royal party expressed themselves as highly pleased with this magnificent showing. In the Capitol the pupils of Misses Seller school sang the Belgian an them. They were the same girls who on the visit of the French Bluo Devils here, at the beginning of the war, sang the French anthem and War songs for them. The King smiled and appeared to enjoy hear ing his own language so well render ed. Miss Lichtenberger, who trained the girls was highly complimented. Capitol Inspected The visitors were conducted into the Senate Chamber, where they viewed the Violet Oakley historic paintings, and commented at length upon their beauty and significance. The King was much impressed and said so. Thence they went througn the hall of the House and in the Governor's reception room the King was introduced to the members of the reception committee by the Gov ernor, assisted by E. J. Stackpole, Mr. McCormick and others. He visit ed the Governor's office and when he had gone again into the rotunda was heard to remark: "A beautiful building; a wonder ful building, and worthy of the dignity of such a great State." Through the rotunda the royal party went to a point in front of the building where preparations had been made to plant a tree in honor of the occasion. Trees Planted Walking from the main entrance of the Capitol down the western ap proach through a lane of thousands of people. King Albert, Governor Sproul, Prince Leopold and other of ficials of the city and members of the royal party, stepped to the lawn just such of the General Hartranft statue where an evergreen tree was to be planted. State police kept the crowds back and opened the narrow passageway through which the party walked. Preparations were complete for turning the earth over the roots of the tall tree. As King Albert stepped up to it he grasped a shovel and i turned two ehovelsfu! of dirt over the roots. The heir apparent, Bel gian officers and city officials stood nearby. Governor Sproul then turn ed two shovelsful of earth over the roots. After the planting Governor Sproul and King Albert wnlked back to the waiting automobiles just in front of the Capitol and while thousands cheered they were off to the Steelton plant of the Bethlehem Steel Company. The King apparent -1 yenjoyed the tree-planting and, although there was little time in which to crowd all the events planned for the reception, word came from within the Capitol building that the planting program was not to be omitted. • Go to Steelton Upon their arrival at Steelton, the party were taken to the train which was waiting for them, and left at once for the lower end of the plant, where the coke ovens, frog and switch department, and bridge and construction departments are lo cated. Tlie train was composed of two cars, one an open flat car which was occupied by the party most of the time, and the second another flat car covered with a canopy, and with seats arranged back to back. Very few of the royal group cared to occupy this car, but stood throughout the trip, interestedly ex amining every department. The King was taken in charge by E. F. Entwisle, assistant general manager, who was present in the absence of General Manager Frank L. Bobbins, Jr. The Crown Prince Leopold was piloted through the plant by Henry B. Bent. In almost every department the royal party expressed their amazement q.nd ad miration at the wonderful things they saw. They were rather disap pointed at their inability to get to South Bethlehem, but when they had completed the tour of the Steel ton works, they were more than satisfied. At the conclusion of the tour, the King told a representative of the Telegraph that he wished to convey to the people of Harrisburg through the press his appreciation for the wonderful reception given him and his unbounded admiration for the in dustries of America typified in the steel works which he had just in spected. Asks Many Questions During the trip through the steel plant, the King plied Mr. Entwisle with questions about the work, ex hibiting an evident knowledge of steel work: how many men they em ployed, where their iron, coke, and coal came from, what their hours of labor were, and questions of like sort came constantly from His Majesty's lips. He wns particularly impressed with the two mile and a half length of the plant, and expressed great regret that he was unable to stay longer for a more detailed survey. Prince questioned Harry Bent about the works with quite as much interest as his father, and ac cording to Mr. Bent, showed an oven greater knowledge of the steel busi ness that his royal parent. A Famous General One of the most Interested of the party was General Baron Jacques, "The lunch I like just before bedtime says (/zhg&tj A dish Afk POST® TOASTIES f KIL>A Y EVKNIISIU, commander of the Third Belgian I Division, who is an old fighter, and wears a breastful of medals. General Jacques said upon leaving the Capi tol that although he had traveled throughout America, he had never seen a more beautiful and stately building. He was particularly im pressed with the paintings in tho Senate and House of Representatives. General Jacques is mentioned by j Mary Roberts Rinehart, in her book, "Kings, Queens and Pawns." He is ; one of the most famous of the Bcl ! gian leaders. | After coming from the train, the King and his party entered the hos -1 pital of the Bethlehem Steel Plant, | which was thoroughly inspected. McCormick l)o<■orated j After the hospital had been in- Jspected and the party were waiting for the machines to be brought up, the King decorated Vance C. McCor mick with the order of a Grand Of ficer of the Crown for the work he had done on the War Trades Board; Mayor Keister with the medal of an | officer of the Order of Leopold 11, l and the two chauffeurs who drove j the cars in which the King and tho | Crown Prince rode. One of these was Samuel Klair, driver for David | Kaufman. The machines left Steelton at 10.45 I and arrived at the Pennsylvania sta tion shortly before the train pulled in at 11 o'clock. The royal party bade farewell to the Governor and Mrs. Sproul, expressing appreciation for their courtesy In receiving them; the Mayor and Mrs. Keister. Mr. Mc | Cormick, and the 'others who made up the reception committee. The Cigar Gift One of the Amusing incidents of the stop occurred when Arthur D. Bacon stepped up to His Majesty just before the train pulled out, and offering him a cigar, said: "Have a cigarf Your Majesty?" "Don't care if I do," said the King, and immediately lighted it, smoking it until the train pulled out. General Jacques was very inter ested in the figures given him by- Adjutant General Frank D. Beary. who told him of the number of men Pennsylvania put into the war. The General was here in 1918 when the Belgian Recruiting Mission travel ed through the country ,and remem- I bered Harrisburg well.

Presents Bouquet to Queen Elizabeth One of the incidents which brought applause and tears, was the presentation of a bouquet to Queen Elizabeth at the Pennsylvania Kail road Station, when the Queen was enroute to her car. Katherine Winkleman, the smallest pupil in the Open Air School made the pre sentation. Attached to the bouquet was an envelope with greetings from the Open Air pupils. Queen Elizabeth was unable to visit the school and Miss Marian C. Willtams, principal of the school, brought the little girl to the station where she was given an opportunity to hand the bouquet to the Queen. The latter thanked the little' pupii and also Miss Williams and patting' the little girl's cheek remarked, "1 will certainly remember you and your schoolmates, and ant sorry thai I could not get to Bee you all." Miss Willlame was requested to convey the Queen's regrets to the scholars and extend to them her best wishes. Katherine Winkleman is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Winkle man, 1111 State street. Ambassador Whitlock Is Charmed With liarrisburg The United States Ambassador to Belgium, Brand Whitlock, who made the tour with the president of the Chamber of Commerce, ex pressed enthusiastic pleasure over the beautiful city, its river front and the old colonial homes immediately north of Market street, in Front, which impressed him as a bit of The Hague. He commented with en thusiasm on the old Maelay Mansion at Front and South streets, and said that ought to be the Governor's home. He was interested in the Civic Club as the home of the ac tivities of the women of Harrisburg and was likewise impressed with the wonderful scenic features of the en tire drive along the river. He said: "This Susquehanna river is beauti ful and your people have certainly realized its possibilities and the beautiful scenio surroundings of the city. I, didn't realize, although I have been through Harrisburg on the railroad trairtk many times, what a really beautiful city you have. 1 have been Impressed since returning home with our wonderful country, and King Albert has fre quently spoken of the atmosphere which seems to indicate the charac ter of the American people. He has been more than delighted with his visit and with the splendid hos pitality which has bean shown him and his party throughout the tour." As Ambassador Whitlock enter ed the main entrance to the Capitol he ugain expressed the greatest pleasure in the beauty of the build ing, its wonderful design and the good taste manifested on every side. He had heard of the scandal ous stories of the furnishings, but declared with emphasis "these things should be forgotten and we ought to appreciate and enjoy the wonderful art and the architectural beauty of this building." He was likewise impressed with the grand stairway, the massed lines of Red Cross workers and convalescent soldlerß from the Base Hospital at Carole, the singing of the Seiler school In the balcony over the grund stairway and the general features of the reception here. He spoke many times during the tour along the city of the characteristic Ameri can features which wero everywhere manifested here. He was much in terested also in the wonderful prog ress of Harrisburg and its develop ment along esthetic and practical lines. He wants to return some day when he may make a more thorough inspection of the many delightful things which he saw in a hurried way. He was interested in the story of the wonderful development of the Capitol Park zone, the Memorial viaduct and the design which has been provided for the Harrisburg commemoration of soldiers. Owing to an injury to one of bis eyes in New York City, Mr. Whitlock found it necessary to omit 2 Finest Clothes /4re Not Expensive day when costs have /j V r * sen t0 un ~ J heights it is * \ grades of / I more expen sive in pro- MM fee portion than nKj vK the better grades.

A great many of our regular clientele, as well as new patrons, purchased furs here during this occasion. However, we believe the rain kept away some women who had decided to attend this exhibit, and therefore, it is advisable that we continue the event until" Saturday night at 6 o'clock when the store closes. The display is especially notable for the unusually large as sortment of scarfs and muffs in the popular skunk fur. Ermine | is also one of the particularly favored furs. We believe this is the largest showing of Hudson seal coats that has ever been presented in Harrisburg in a single exhibit Hudson Seal is especially fashionable now and is always good. A Hudson Seal Coat can be worn for years and be in good taste. Furthermore, a Hudson Seal Coat gives years of service and becomes a profitable investment as each year goes by. Some of the Hudson Seal Coats have collars of Hudson Seal while others are trimmed in contrasting furs. There Are Many Fur Coats Such As Mole, Marmot and Squirrel, All of Which Are Very Fashionable This entire exhibit is much larger than any that has been to Harrisburg and considering the fact that these furs are priced attractively and are presented in the same light as all Schleis- H ner high class merchandise it is to your advantage to purchase now.
