been able to lend hand in prescry-
ing the Union from disruption.
The Kamehameha Schools cadets
followed the drag carrying the G. y.
r.. Though the boys have not yet
receiver their arms, they made Il
brave show as they passed along. All
wore the historic gray uniform of
the United States Military Academy,
with campaign hat substituted for
the forage cap. and shoulder straps
for the officers, in place of cadet
cheyfons. Each cadet was as
straight as an arrow and the SYM
bolism of the procession was thor
oughly borne out-the Nations de-
tenders, those who have served their
time in the ranks of active lighting
men, and those who are preparing to
step into line when the active forces
Of the present day shall have passed
to the retired list.
Behind the Kamehameha cadets
marched the boys of Mills College,
uniformed in blue blOuses ana white
trousers. They also made fine
showing and came in for their full
share of applause.
Fire Department Last
The Fire Department. with Chief
Thurston at the head, brought up the
rear Of the procession. With horses
gIoomed until their coats reflected
the sunlight like burning silver. the
magnificent animals tugged at their
bits, evidently determined to show
that, though their duties were those
of peace rather than war. they took
no less pride In their calling than did
the steeds carrying the fighting men.
As the last piece Of apparatus
passed by. and the watchers realized
that the pageant was at an end. there
was u moments pause, and then the
crowds broke to find new vantage
point to view the procession again.
