Thousands Throng .
Pennsylvania Avenue
Until After Midnight

There were thousands on Pennsyl-
vania avenue last night who felt every
bit as good as did Columbus when ne
first set foot on western soil. Their
equipment for proving their Joy was
better than that of the Genoese sailor.
Ticklers, rattle boxes, girlish voices
pitched to falsetto. horns, shriekhlg
sirens. the light laughter of women and
the deeper chuckle of men, the snort Of
delayed automobiles. and the clang of
the impatient street car gongs bred the
motion and air of huge gayety.
Eating became an amusement instead
of a business in cafes and restaurants,
hotel Iobbies were filled with crowds
hurryings nowhere, while outside the
Avenue quivered under hundreds of
fiaring red fires. Four on a pole, the
cartons of red fire burned one after the
other the flare lasting more than two

the street was burning, searchlight

Knights Hosts at
Largest Banquet Ever
Held in Washington

The largest banquet ever held in the
District was that given by the knights
of Columbus in Convention Hall last
night. More than 1850 men were at the
boards and notable addresses were
made by Cardinal Gibbons. Speaker
Champ Clark, of the House of Repre-
sentatives; Congressman Oscar Under
wod of AIabama, and others. .t<'
The supreme officers of the knights
of Columbus were seated at the guest
table, with more than a score Of mem-
bers of Congress, Latin-American dip
lomats, leading churchmen. including
Cardinal Gibbons, and others.
In a brief address Cardinal Gibbons
said:
1T was a magnificent pageant that
marched up Pennsylvania avenue to-
day. The sights seen here today have
rarely been equaled. II you persist in
your good work you will surely sue

Speaker Clark made a whimsical con-
trast between the weather which pre-
vailed at the Inauguration of President
Taft in 1908 and that which ruled yes

Il hope we will have much better
weather on March next" he said.

Director John Barrett Of the Pan
American Bureau, made a plea for
closer relations with the republics to
the south of the United States, and
Congressman Underwood paid brief
tribute to the work of the knights of
Columbus in his address.

From All States.
From every State in the Union Can

down the Avenue to the Columbus
statue and by the reviewing stand, led
by the military.
Huge floats depicting the discovery
of America, the pleas of Columbus to
Queen Isabelle and King Ferdinand for
funds with which to go on his expedi-
ton. and the treatment accorded him

wearing their white duck suits, Panama
hats, and white cloth shoes, made a
good appearance,
Probably the most applauded section
of the great parade was the band from
st. Marys Industrial School, the oldest
member of which being but sixteen
years. From the time the youngsters
left the starting point until after they
passed the reviewing stand they were
greeted with applause.
The parade was the biggest in the his
tory OF the organization.
The largest State delega ton was from
Pennsylvania. More than 5000 knights
representing this State, and garbed In
various costumes. each chapter having
a distinctive dress, were in tline.
From Chicago came 1000 knights and
half dozen bands, most of the latter
being OF the military type. Delaware

will soon be added"
An eloquent memorial address was
delivered by former Congressman James
7. McCleary of Minnesota, who fathered
the bill for the memorial in Congress
and was member Of the original
memorial commission which selected
the design and site for the memorial.
For along time Sparta, in ancient
Greece, pursued the policy OF expos
ing on the hillsides all puny infants,
nourishing only those that promised to
grow up into vigorous manhood and
womanhood," he said Under that sys-
TEN Sparta developed a great race and
was thus able to maintain itself in
the midst of powerful foes. Since then
the world has grown kinder and the
Spartan policy of deliberately killing off
the weak has been abandoned.
But would it not be even worse to
adopt the policy of deliberately killing
off the strong? That is one of the
try today. And who would be the
chief sufferers? Precisely the people
whose interest it Is professed to serve
thereby. The weak need the strong

Italian ambassador, pulling the cords,

The principal address of the day was
delivered by President Taft, who said,
in part:
1t is most difficult for US by any eff
fort of the Imagination to- take in the
problem which Columbus solved. The
erroneous ideas that were held OF
geography and of the physical charac-
teristics of the earth. the exaggeratior
of the dangers-great as they were-'
which superstition and legend prompted
made the plan of Columbus to sail out
into the dark ocean" as the Atlantic
was then called, to. the eastern shore
of Asia, on the theory that the world
was round-an instance of courage thai
finds few parallels. He knew, as every
mariner knew, the tremendous power OF
nature in a tempest, and he could moi
but fully realize the impending and con
stant danger to vessels of the size OF
his cockle-shells in an ordinary struggle
with the usual winds and storms.
six times did he cross the oceaI
alive; twice We're his bones taken from
one side to the other to find a resting
place. The story of his life reveals de
fects of temperament and the exist
ence of some motives under temptation
that show him human but the impres
sion left, after study of his character
leads to full recognition of the great
ness and dignity of the man, the higl
ideals that prompted his almost super
human efforts, the patience and tenacit,
that attended every encouragement, tn
loyalty to his soVereigns when put t,
grievous test, and the final resignation
to the will of God in the sad ending O
tried, tempestuous, but most NOTABLE
and useful life.

The thousands who came to Wash

the activities of yesterday. A two

public banquet given at Convention
Hall, and the witnessing of the pyro-
technical display on the White Lot and
the Avenue, made a full days work for
the visitors. Today they were glad to
pass the time with less strenuous un-

draw it together. This is not as
healthful as to leave it, open and
put stockings, on the baby. If you
are situated so that you can let
your baby sleep out doors, put
over its ordinary nightdress a
heavy wrap of eiderdown flannel
with a hood that will come well
over its head and add mittens for
its hands.
Ifpossible have your baby sleep
in a separate room, but at least
have the temperature as low as
90 at night, with plenty of fresh
air, being very careful to keep the
draft from blowing directly upon
the baby.
For the indoor bedding there
should be quilted tidy over the
mattress, and then sheet, an
other sheet over the child and one
good warm blanket. This will be
found to be entirely sufficient in
. a room which grows as cold as 65
degrees at night, provided baby
wears a flannel night dress and
stockings.
When you battle your baby in
the morning be sure that it has
had its feeding at least one hour
before. It is a good thing to
time its bath so that you will have
it bathed and dressed just in time
for its next feeding. 1t will then
go to sleep for a couple of hours.

outfit every day, if possible. An
outfit of eight little slips, perfect

coats, eight night dresses, eight
flannel shirts and eight pairs of
stockings can be purchased for
about 81, provided you make the
night dresses, petticoats and slips,
and these should last the baby un-
til it is old enough to be put into
short dresses. If you feel that
you cannot go to this expense get
half the number, as it only takes
few minutes to wash them out
every day.
Laces, frills and furbelows. add
nothing to a baby's health and
fort-indeed they are very
discomforting to its tender flesh,
no matter how much they please
the mothers vanity.
If you want to make some little
dainty bit of wearing apparel,
crochet little hood and jacket to
put on baby when it needs a little
extra warmth.
When your baby is sleeping do
not cover with too many blankets.
If you think it is not warm
enough use a hot water bottle or
heated brick in the bed.
