The Montgomery advertiser., 1908-08-02


 to enjoy the holiday they had so long looked forward to.
 At half past one in the afternoon when they were informed that the treat would positively come on their joy knew no bounds. and from that time on until the close of the auto. mobile parade they were as happy set of children as could be found any where. Dressed in their best clothes they came from their respective homes shortly after o'clock and were march, ed to the Bienvilie Square where the Mobile, Light and Railroad Company had trolley cars waiting for them to take them on long ride. Throughout the entire trip the children were al-
 lowed to use their lungs and shouted
 most vigorously.
 Trolley ride over. they were next
 treated to a moving picture show ct
 the Pictorium Theatre, where series of pictures were shown that proved most interesting to the little ones. Meanwhile, the fremen of the city had been busy on Bienville Square. | Over on the southeast corner they had | erected tables and benches These ta- | bles formed a square. in the center Of | which there was a large barrel filled | with lemonade. which some of the lusty | fire-hghters had been stirring all the morning Many a longing eye was | turned toward this corner as the chill | dren enjoyed the games and danced to | the music of the Boys of woodcraft l Band on Bienville Square, and when | they were summoned to the feast pre-
 pared for them. they needed no second | bidding.
 Multitude of Autos.
 During the feast a multitude of au- | tomobiles had assembled all around the l square, There were So many that 1t | resembled an automobile show. There were all makes and all classes. Into
 these. as soon as the feast was over.
 the little ones climbed. and the great
 parade of the day was on. They were
 taken all over the city wherever there
 was a paved street The police had
 made special regulations for the traffic
 and the motormen of trolley cars had
 received special instructions to give the
 automobiles the right-of-way. This
 prevented accident
 Just at the time that the children
 had concluded their feast. a rain
 shower. which had been threatening all
 the afternoon, broke over the city.
 There were thirty automobiles present
 at the time that were provided with
 shelter covers. There were. in addi-
 ton, a number that offered no protec-
 tion to the storm. Into the protected
 care. therefore. the children were hastily placed, while those cars that had no shelter put out for the nearest garages.
 It was fin the rain that the parade started. First came an automobile bearing members of the police force. | Behind this came the band from the
 Woodcraft School. and then followed | James T. Duggan's car bearing the
 Mayor and as pretty a bunch of little
 girls as one would wish to gaze upon | The Mayor seemed to be extremely | pleased and said that he would be will | ing to represent the paterfamilias of
 the entire outfit were 1t not for the
 fact that Fire Chief Price had beaten I him out In the running.
 The Chiefs popularity, 1t should be said, was largely gained in that he
 had charge of the refreshnent end of
 the outing. while to the Mayor was l relegated the task of making the ] speech of the occasion. Unfortunately for the Mayors prestige all the chill dren were hungry, and had been cast ing longing eyes at the refresfIment
 tables for some time. He started to tell them how glad the citizens of Mo-
 bile were to give them this outing. The
 rain which threatened to mar the au- tomobile parade was quickly over, and,
 amid lines of citizens, the cars sped
 along over the smooth asphalt pave-
 ments of the city.
