be opened with grand and imposing
in which the military OF
Ohio will take an important part. The
President Of the United States and the
members OF his cabinet; the Governors
Of each of the states of the
Union and their staffs; the SEN
ators and representatives in Con-

Ohio, will be each personally and Off
cially invited to be present and partici-
pate in the splendid ceremonies Of the
day. These opening ceremonies will be
Of the most imposing and impressive
character. Ode and oration, inspiring
music and laundering cannon shal!
formally inaugurate the celebration OF
the glories Of hundred years OF our
growth and advancing civilization,
thereby making the pageant one worth
a pilgrimage across the continent to
witness.
The ceremonies inaugurating the ex.
position will be continued through the
second and third days. The second

representatives OF our mother states--the
Virginias, Massachusetts and Connecti-

grandest industrial exposition ever wit
messed in the Mississippi valley, and
the most significant social reunion OF
our people ever held upon the conti-
nent.
Love of country, pride of state and a
just of the wonderful growth
of our industries-of the development OF
our vast resources, and of our marked
educational advancement should inspire
every citizen of the state to join us in
the determination to make this great
centennial celebration, authorized to be

from the resemblance of its nut to the

will be words OF welcome to the East

the chosen orators Of these sections of
the country, and recitals Of the remin,

close with competitive drills by infantry,
