his party were escorted in drive
through the parks and resident sec
ton of the city. Shortly after IL
O'Clock the presidential party took pc.
sition at the head of the floral parade
and the pageant began to move.
The parade was one of the most
beautiful ever held in Southern Cali
fornia. The streets along the line of

the president and his party were CIV
en- the most enthusiastic greetings.
Later in the day the president visited
the soldiers home at Santa Monica.
The president delivered short ad-
dress, which was frequently applaud
ed by an appreci0tive audience.
The approach to the city of Los An
geles was ..eralded by cannon and
whistles. The noisy welcome could
be heard for miles. AS the train
passed through the Chinese quarter of
the city, long strings of firecrackers
hung from awnings exploded like the
continuous rattle OF musketTy. The
city had been beautifully decorated.
The streets were avenues of masts

and several companies of militia had
been provided to escort them, but the
military and police had to fight their
way through the enormous crowds
which had swarmed into the city,
drawn by the double attraction of the
presidents visit and the carnival now
going on. At the hotel the president
met Governor Nash of Ohio and the
Ohio congressional delegation, who
arrived an hour before. In the rotunda
of the hotel the mayor of Los Angeles
formally greeted the president and ex-
tended the freedom of the city.

to meet the women of Los Angeles.

birdseye view of 10 miles of southern
California and the Pacific ocean. 20
miles out to sea. The members of the

ty witnessed the brilliant illumination
of the city streets.
