conditions. They ranged in age from
little tots in short dresses to great big men
and women who had come down to see the
other children have good time. There were
thousands Of them. The green grass of the
rolling slopes back OF the White House was
fairly alive with children. There were small
specimens OF humanity from Massachusetts,
avenue. east and west. The West End was ont
in force and SO was Tin Cup alley. The social
ism OF childhood was well shown. There
was no distinction of rank OF color. There
were children. black and While and Of all the
shades that lie between. There was one small
red child, who ENJOYED the game of rolling eggs
AS much any OF them. This was the small
Indian baby who was picked up on the battle
field Of Wounded Knee after the battle and was
adopted by the family OF Gen Colby
