ton rendered them on their return is
said to have been the cause OF the largest
gathering ever seen in this city. Eight

enlisted and went TO the front again.
"Those were great days" said one OF the
old veterans to a NEWS representative
today. 1.-THE churches were all open,

the city, as the fair daughters OF Rhode
Island were, with willing hands, putting
together the uniforms for these 100 men,
and the work was all done in four days !"
Here the old veterans mind went back
TO the day, and he said, with tears in his
eyes: "Uncle Sam could have had 10000
mon that day, but the women could Lot
gAbtAe- uniforms ready, HeF-the- state
could not equip them, but Others, Just
as brave, loyal and true soon followed. 4"
These old veterans, many of them bearing
the scars OF war, are at Oakland Beach

uppermost in their minds There are
there today veterans from all parts Of the
United States who have come from their
far-off homes to take part in the exercises.
