Ten Thousand veterans and their es-

anchored IN Georgetown channel up 10
noon today. according tn the count
taken on the official launches. Thii
does not Include the number taken out
on private launches. Of which no
record was kept.
Complaints have poured in on the en-

activity Of "piraticai launches" whose
operators take crowds out to the war
vtssels and leave them marooned. Last
night the official launches we're COM
PEELED to bring In thirty-seven veterans
who had been taken out to the boats
and left there.
Many Of this number also were
charged a higher rate than the official
10 cents fare. Efforts to stop the prac-
tice have failed because there Is nc
law to prevent owners of launches from

Little Difficulty Experienced in
Handling Union Station
Crowds.

Little difficulty was experienced at
Union Station yesterday In handling the
crowds that left the city following the
parade.
Few OF the veterans departed most Of
them remaining over for the events last
night and this morning. Others. who
fiocked into the city from outlying
towns. did not cause any congestion at
the station. All the outgoing crowds
were handled on regular trains.
Travel was heavy on local trains of
the Southern railroad. and on the lines
Of the Baltimore and Ohio to Baltimore
and on the Metropolitan branch. The
Pennsylvania also took away heavy
trainloAds yesterday. IT,.
Several thousand came over from
Baltimore, but the crowd from the
Monumental City was not SO large AZ
was expected. Many Of the outlying
towns. including those along the Blue.
mont. the Annapolis. the Laurel, and
| the Rockville street car lines. sent
crowds to Washington. -. =
Though cars were crowded. and rar
slowly in some cases, the throngs who
came TO soc the parade had little trouble
in getting home again.

In fact know 1t would well repay
any community to have community

this loss and the better returns you
can enjoy. We often hear the ques-
ton. Does farming pay" As long aa

The Prosperous Home.

Last time We veutured the opinion
that the prosperity Of the home is
the true index of progress. that Is
TO say. Of material progress. A
few words Of explanation may be
needed.
Home includes two things: the
material dwelling place, and the
occupants thereof. Moreover, il
suppOses that these occupants are
bound together in some fashion by
family ties. If there are no family
ties, IT is only a home in a fgura-
tive sense; as We speak of a
Nurses Home or a Home for
the Aged: aud no degree of splen-
dor and luxury can convert it into a
true home; for a true home is always
the dwelling place of family. If
the index Of the eoantry's progress
Is the prosperity of the home. il
mast therefore be prosperity which
will show itself both in the dwell
ing place itself, and in the condi-
tion of those who live in it.
You cannot have a really prosper
Gus home if the dwelling place Is
impoverished. The millionaire
miser who staffs and old boot into
the broken window-pane may be
rich himself. but as far A. his home
goes. he Is a poor man. On the
other. the dwelling need not be ex-
Pensive or luxurious 10 be truly
prosperous. All that is required is
that il be suitable 10 the needs and
reasonable tastes Of the occupants.
These needs and tasis will vary with
climate and character. The house
that sill be luKuriously ce-ol in the
West Indies would be a mockery in
Cur climate The real needs OF the
occupants are what count. What
aceoani i a music room if the whole
family i deaf: or OF wilderness of
gim-erack furniture, ornaments,
stattuettes, etc, If they are only to
collect the dust and worry the houSe-
maid:
80 much for the dwelling.-and
the same applies TO a mans estate.
his dwelling in large sense.-but
what of the occupants: Their pros
perity may be summed up in a
word: the preservation of the family
ties.
The home progresses, or fails,
with the prevention or failure Of
family ties; ties of marriage and
parenthOOd. If people as a class,
do not dwell, so to speak, along
family lines,-then home DECAYS.
and with ii the community. The
boarding house, the hotel, the club,
the camp, all have their advantages
as places of residence for some, but
they are not and never can be home:
for home is rooted and founded in
the family, and its b1nds of power
and love.
If you wish TO Judge of progress.
you must look first for what binds
our families together externally,
j. e., by Offering conditions of labor
and industry that tend TO preserve
the family spirit, instead OF disrupt
ing family life. This is 4 great
advantage of agriculture, for in
stance, as a profession. Secondly,
we must strengthen all those unseen
but all powerful influences in our
public life and morality which
strengthen the ties of family, of
home and country.

Now, having In view the further de-
Felopmens Of the swine industry Of
the State. IL has been thought q good
plan TO follow the example Of one Of
our sister SoEfthern States by the or
ganlzation Of Boys Pig Clubs.
The object OF such q Club would be:
J. To stimulate an interest In swine
production and TO teach the boys how
10 raise better and cheaper hogs by
the use Of improved bleed and the
growing Of forage crops
2. To increase the number Of hogs
raised On the farm in order that the
meat for the home and that required to
feed the extra farm labor may Be pro-
vided instead Of being bought.
= To complement the work of the
Boys Corn Club by showing the boys
how they can pre6tably sell their corn
thrO6gh hogs.
4 To encourage the home curing
Of meats on the farm
g. To teach the boys how TO Judge
hogs and 20 select them for breeding
or market purposes.
e. To encourage the growing c,
forfse crops and discourage the use Of
high-prieed feeds.
T. To instruct the boy In, a prac-
deal way In the management OF feed
Ing. sanitation. and prevention Of dis.
eases Of swine. all Of which inforrna-
ton proves valuable with respect to
other forms Of live stock work.
g. To give the boys q means Of
earning some money for themselves
while AZ home.
g. To instiIl in the boys while
young. love OF animals which will re-
suit in their taking more interest in
farm life, and 20 furnish them at the
same time. work which viii. in a prac
deal way. give an insight into the
business side OF farm life and incite
In them desire 10 struggle for and
attain success. Is not such an effort
worth while?
