wonderful showing in the parade, as did the Woodmen of the World.
 q was particularly struck by two features of this parade which l have never seen in any other. One was the hundreds reaching into thousands of school boys and girls marching. The girls were all in white, and both boys and girls carried Confederate flags. When one looked out the window and away down the street it seemed veri- table forest of flags. The other was the Ku- Klux klan; all were dressed in ghostly robes of white, with sheets over their faces. It would have been more impressive had they been on horseback.
 MT. Walthall who took the leading part in The Birth of a Nation. was one of the reviewing officers. I was very proud of the Chattanooga rep resentation at the reunion They made a splendid showing. I thought the Chattanooga girls the very prettiest In the parade-Mrs J. Webster Hor- ton, matron of honor; Miss Gloria Lamb, sponsor. and Miss Josephine Fur ner and Miss Cathryn Henderson maids. T could not but be forcibly inn pressed by the manner in which Bir- mingham handled the immense throngs. Too much praise cannot be given the Boy Scouts. They were particularly thoughtful of every Confederate vet eran. I saw many a little fellow lug ging heavy suitcase. and heard that no veteran was allowed to pay car fare. "Apropos of the parade. it was one of the longest and most brilliant ever held at a reunion, taking two hours to pass a given point"
