MAYOR At THE ARMORY.
Last Day of Shoe Bespeahs Plainly
It's Great Success.

The last day of the armory show was greater
than the first. From early till late there was
constant stream OF visitors going in and out
and at time was 1t possible to get from booth
to booth without having practically TO force or
20 pick ones way. Forgetting the automobiles,
forgetting the airships. forgetting the decora-
tons, one could stand in the balcony and watch
the ever changing crowd for hours and be enter
tanned. There were times when the aises were
so filled that it did not seem possible that one
more could be squeezed in. So it was till late
in the evening when, IL loath to leave. the
enthusiasts had to be all but driven out, and the
show was over.
One of the most interested spectators at the
armory show yesterday Mayor Mcclellan.
He went there early yesterday afternoon, and
made thorough inspection of the exhibits from
balconies to basement In speaking to Secretary
