with people Clubs with brilliant BAN
ners were rendezvousing, bands with
gorgeous uniforms were playing IN

which covers a block, fluttered a myr-
lad Of flags. The great gilded Amer
lean eagle 2, the main entrance flash
ed brilliantly in the sunlight. 4 cor

entrances. Within the officers and en-
ployes were performing the final de-
tails.
