his reighbors and friends following
him, President Roosevelt, his vaca-
t:oa ended, left Oyster Bay at 10
o'clock Saturday morning for Wash
i2gton.
The farewell given the president
BY the residents Of his home town
was notable. Throughout the village,
residences and business buildings
we're decorated and Audrey avenue,
over which the president passed to
the railroad station, was hung with
large American flags at intervals OF
twenty feet. At the railroad, over the
entrance to the waiting room, white
dove with outstretched wings perched
on an American shield, had been
placed. Beneath this emblem was the
one word Peace" The whole was
entwined with the national colors OF
Russia and Japan.
At the station hundreds OF the
neighbors and acquaintances of the
president and his family had assem-
bled. Scores of school children were
massed about the platform, each wav-
ing a little American flag. Within
part of the platform which had been
roped of to enable the president and
his party to reach the train were
twenty young women attired in white,
trimmed with ribbons. Of red and blue.
As the president boarded the train
they sang God be with you till we
meet again.
The president was accompanied to
Washington by Mrs. Roosevelt and
their children Ethel, Archie and Quen-
tin.
Secretary and Mrs. Loeb, who have
been living at Seawanhaka Yacht
club, on Center island, this summer,
were obliged, On account of the Sc
fous illness Of Mrs. Loeb, to 60 20

turned out to welcome the president
to the national capital Saturday even.
ing and made his homecoming the
occasion for an ovation from the time
he was sighted On the platform Of
his car until he passed within the
doors Of the white house.
The president wes touched by the
welcome, and especially by it's spon-
taneity. ..
1T was awfully kind Of them to
come out to greet me-" he remarked
to some friends at the white house,
"and I was deeply touched by their
welcome"
A mighty cheer went up as the
crowd inside the depot caught sight
Of the president, which was taken uo
by the crowds outside of the station
and had passed along the line as ths
president was recognized. He shook
hands first with the cabinet members
and other officials, then giving Mrs.
Roosevelt his arm, he walked slowly
to his carriage. AS he reached the
engine the president thanked the en-
gineers for his safe trip, and stopped
to shake his hand.
The president frequently arose and
bowed to the cheering crowds on
both sides Of the avenue and during
the latter part of the drive the "hur
rahs" became so enthusiastic that ths
president stood most of the time. Mrs.
Roosevelt also was greatly pleased
with the greeting, and her face was
radiant asl she bowed right and left.
