one is interested in it. Already number
of displays have been agreed upon and the
carnival promises to be "thipg OF beauty
and Joy forever" 1t could not be other
wise with ten or fifteen thousand Washing
ton people deeply interested in its success.
Some little idca OF the beauty OF the dis
play can be formed when ii is remembered
that the route is at least eight miles long.
Commencing away up on New Hampshire
avenue, it extends to Washington Circle
then TO the Peace Mon back to Fif-
teenth street, up to Vermont avenue, down
Observation-Disclosures ton ew Jersey avenue,
and then two miles over Capitol Hill streets.
Somany ypeople are expected tina tthe parade
will be disbanding at Stanton Park before
the last of the parade has reached Wash
iDgton Circle.
Several of the riders who are interested in
the route have gone over 1t and made
measurements. They say il will lie impoS
sible to move six abre1st on some or the
streets, so it may be Necessary to change
this, and the pI rade may move in columns
OF fours. BlH this matter will be decided ut
the meeting Monday night.
Do not forget the change in the place Of
meeting-Timcs Building, second floor.
