The Dewey Night Parade.

Chairman w H. Rapley Of the committee
on parade also called early. He expressed
the opinion that about 1000 men would
be in the parade. He said he had received
many verbal assurances from representa-
tives of various organizations in the Dis
trict of the intention of such bodies to
participate. but that the distinction of the
first formal notification in reply to the COM
mittee's recent circular belonged to Union
Veteran Legion No. 90, of which Col. Han
nibal d. Norton is commander. 1t was re-
ceved this morning and stated that the
legion would turn out $50 men. He also
said that President w. l.. Elterich of the
German Central Verein, which is composed
of seventeen societies of German-speaking
Americans in the District, had informed
him he would call a meeting at once to
arrange plans for participation in the pa
rade. He expected many notifications be-
tween now and September Is, the date set
in the circular for replies to be sent
From present Indications Georgetown
University will make a fine display in the
parade. 1t is understood to be the wish of
President Whitney that all the students of
the junior and senior departments, as well
as the law and medical branches, shall
turn out Dewey night, and that about 700
enthusiastic young Americans will respond

sional students alike will carry canes dec

could not have had a more efficient aid IN
this important work than Secretary Van
Wickle. The chairmen Of all the commit
tees and their colleagues have shown the
same sort of zeal and energy, and alto
gether Washington is to be congratulated
upon having the arrangements for its re-

1t always makes a man mad to have a
woman ASK him whether he can drive,

Marriage makes two people one, only
sometimes it's one one and sometimes it's

When one girl says in crowd that a

The Welcome to Dewey.

Since Admiral Dewey sailed into New
York harbor so Unexpectedly at day
break, Tuesday, the news columns OF
the newspapers all over the country
have had little else than the accounts
of the honors bestowed upon him there
by city and state, by army, navy and
public. He arrived in advance of
schedule time but not in advance of
his welcome. This morning, the world
reads about the great naval parade,
yesterday, the most wonderful and i'm
pressive parade of the kind ever
known. And, today, comes the mon
ster land parade when the cheering
millions of his fellow citizens will come
closest in contact with the hero.
Everything is on a magnificent scale.
and one great feature of the celebra-
ton crowds after another in bewilder-
a welcome home given an American.
Never in the worlds history was such
an elaborate triumph. with so many
participants and so much enthusiasm,

esteem which will touch his heart most
of all. And there will be others to fol-

years which a grateful republic hopes
may be many and full of happiness for
him. And through it all the victor of
Manila bears himself with a calm
poise. a modest manlinces which
makes the country admire him more
than it did through the distance which
is usually so enchanting. Not only
are his deeds. deathless in history but
he is forever enshrined in the Ameri

There is a deep meaning to all this
hero worship and enthusiasm. 1t is
the man. but it is more than the man:
it is the novelty of his wonderful
achievements, but it is more than that.
1t Is one method Of expressing the ma
tional consciousness of a new era and
a wider outlook on the world. 1t is
what Admiral Dewey recalls and what
he stands for the entrance of our re-
public into the front rank Of powers
ard into a larger share Of Worll-
politics. The great welcome 10 George
