Marshall's band met the $50 from
Leavenworth and the 40 from Kansas
City at the Santa Fe station and the
travellers were escorted to the Masonic
temple on Jackson between Sixth ave-
nue. and Seventh street. At noon a
lunch was served by the Shrine,
following which will be a matinee line
party at the Novelty for the Ladies
of the Shrine while the class of nov
ices take the initiation.
Fun During Parade.
A man chained to a lamp post at
the corner of Eighth street and Kan
sas avenue attracted almost as much
attention as did the parade of the
Shriners at 2:30 O'Clock today. He
wore prison stripes, was handcuffed
to the post, and on his head was a
baby's hood. Thoughtful Shr1ners
brought him n bale@of hay and some
dog biscuits for luncheon, and took
his picture.
Leading the Shriner's parade was
the carriage of the potentate, l.. M.
Penwell, followed by an automo bile
full of officials of Abdallah temple.
MarshalPs band furnished the music
for the procession and led the way for
acageful of Shriners. A drill team clad
in blue coats and short white flaring
trousers came next, carrying seine
tars. Shriners walking in dummy
jackasses followed the drill team and
life line formed the means of sup
port for the next gang who wore white
busters and carried banners enlighten-
ing the bystanders with the salient
points of the exhibition. All along the
line were camel drivers who cracked
whips and ever threatened to lick
some tardy Shriner.
Orchestra q Rattle.
The Shriner orchestra consisted of
a gigantic rattle and an imitation saw
effect. The musicians furnished melody
for the School for Camel Drivers
who bestrode a te1ehone pole that
arched narrow hump.
The remainder of the procession
wore red fezes and either rode in cars
or marched in procession. A police
man who happened to be in the
class was cmpel1ed to wear his
full uniform while two grave looking
Shriners escorted him, one holding
each arm. Another Shriner wore a
-Hilander costume. carrying pipes

MEANING OF FABIAN TACTICS

When the allies fell back from their first line in northern France to the Marne a good deal was said and written of Fabian tao tics, and when the Germans fell back from the line of the Marne to the Aisne more was said of Fabian tactics" In this coun- try when Washington and the heroic Con tinental army fell back before the English in superior force and of superior equipment, and perhaps superior discipline, his tactics were called Fabian" In fact, General George Washington was called, and by his torlcal writers is still referred to as "the American Fabius." It is probably true that many Americans long parted from their school books have forgotten about Fabius, even though whenever an army makes an orderly retreat for the purpose of gaining time or reaching a more favorable position they speak huently of Fabian tactics' It IS a phrase that comes trlppingly of the tongue.
 Fablus, as might easily be guessed from his name, was a Roman. He commanded the legions of Rome against the power of Carthage POO years before the Christian era. The tactics which came to be called after Fabius were no doubt employed centuries oeiOic AGodIC W do UOlu dDldII tdCllCS "ltI- out doubt have been used ever since bodies of men made war, but 1t may be that Fa- blus so refined those tactics that it IS just and worthy they bear his name
 Fabius, i'll 2l7 B. C., stood opposed to the hosts or hordes of Carthaginians under the brilliant leadership of Hannibal In battle before Fablus Maximum was called<-to the supreme command of the Roman troops in the field the Carthagnians had been vic, torious Fabius, prohting by what had be- fallen his predecessors in command, avoided pitched battle in the open and retreated, fighting as he fell back, holding of the enemy with what are now described as rear guard actions. Drawing the enemy further and further from base or the source of supplies, wearying their troops more than he wearied his own, and delaying battle until he reached ground where his position would give him great advantages position which could certainly be defended against superior numbers the loss in men and morale of the assailants must be great and where at the proper moment the coun- ter stroke could be delivered with high promise of success, the tactics of Fabius won.
 In some ways the phrase Fabian tactics" has been diverted from its original and proper significance, and is made to con- prehend any tactics of particularly shrewd
