CARNIVAL CROWD ENORMOUS
Gates OF the Kansas City. kan, Expo

was mass of humanity, so dense as TO
almost entirely block traffic of all kinds.
1T was the greatest crowd ever seen
in this city,.
who knew the city's history. The peo-
pie began coming early in the morning
and they kept coming all day until al
night, when a procession Of autOmo-
biies on parade attempted to force its
way through it. the motorists found
their machines hemmed in on all sides
by the struggling masses and the pro-
cesslon was almost completely disor-
ganized. But 1t was a good-natui ed,
pieasure-seeking crowd.
There were the usual attractions on
the streets and in the exposition
grounds. while the plaza, with its num-
erous shows, assumed the appearance
of summer pleasure park.
But the feature Of the day was the
motor car parade-though its beauty
and attractiveness were marred by the
density OF the crowds in the central
part Of the city. The procession formed
packing house 1t was headed by John
Biggetts big machine with Mayor
Laughlin. sitting beside Mr. .Liggett. AS
the cars-there were thirty of them in
line-sped along the route, they were
greeted with hearty cheers all alort5 the
line.
No accidents occurred. Several mo-
torists had to stop their machines at
different times, thereby losing their
places in the line The line of parade
was broken several times on account OF
the streets being blockaded by thes street
cars.
Today has been designated Corona
ton day. in honor of the GROWING of
the queen. Miss Myrtle Sabins, which
will take place on the plaza Of the Ex-
position grounds at 3 o'clock. Mayor
Laughlin has proclaimed half holiday
James F Getty. state senator. has been
chosen king by the Carnival associa-
ton. He will introduce the queen at

MY heart is with you today on the
opening morning of the convention OF
the worlds WOmen's ChristiOn Tenn
perance union. and my memory goes
back to the day in Faneun hall when
for the first time I came face to face
with so many comrades now well
known and beloved friends. The tie
that was formed so long ago has not
loosened with the years. but rather in
the stress and strain Of work has It
been drawn closer
You come gathered from many coun-
tries, you bring to the convention ex-
periences many and varied. You are
glad to be refreshed by conpanionship,
to learn from one another and to get
new inspirations from this great assem-
bly,. To protect the home. to Danish the
saloon. to shelter the weak and to pre-
serve the strong. these are your inten-
flons in your warfare against the IL
cuor traffic and there is another motive
power for it is the fulfilling of the viii
Of God which gives the great impetus
10 your work the fulfilling of his Will
IS we'll in this legislative history Of ma
tions as in Individual lives. This is the
reason for our very existence as a great
Worldwide society. Tt is the foundation
upon which the whole structure OF our
temperance work is built
Nothing, we believe today is more
destructive to the wen Being Of any
people than the organized liquor traf-
fc Nothing makes it harder for men
and women to fulfill the destiny for
which God created them. nothing IN
darmines principle. saps vitality. wastes
resources and devastates homes, more
than the drink habit. which is the fate
full heritage Of nearly the whole civilized
world

may arise over which YOU may differ
