LINE OF MARCH.
The line of march of the Memorial
day parade will be as follows: Form
ing on Market Square the procession
will at one o'clock sharp move west on
Market street to the Northwestern de-
pot to meet the visiting comrades ar
irving by special trains. Thence
north along West Main street to Grand
avenue; thence east on Grand avenue
to the harbor, where sa1utes will be
fired at intervals; thence south along
Main street to the Telegraph Courier
building; thence southerlY to and
along the east, south and west sides of
the Park to the speakers platform and
seats just north of the Soldiers nonu-
rnent.
The second division will leave the
main body of paraders at Wisconsin
street and march west to Chicago
street; thence south on Chicago street
and on the west, south and east sides
of the Park, approaching the platform
and seats from the east, the two divis-
ions of the procession thus passing
each other in review as they encirc1e
the Park.
All occupants of dwelling houses,
places of business and factories along
the line of march are requested to have
their premises tastefally, appropriately
and deliberately decorated.
Those living on abutting streets can
add much to the artistic and patriotic
effect by hanging flags and other en-
b1ems over the streets SO they may be
seen as the streets are crossed.
It is regretted that more streets cam
not be included, but the infirmities of
the average old soldier preclude a
longer march.
It is requested that each occupant of
windows, piazzas, front yards and
sidewalks be supplied with small flags
to wave in honor of the paraders.
It is hoped that visiting veterans
will receive enthusiastic greeting,
amounting to an ovation, manifested
by c1apping of hands, waving of flags
and cheering along the entire line of
march. COMMITTEE.
