four quarters of the nation for the
Quardrennial event, was a-tiptoe in
anticipation of tomorrow's demon
stration. Although the inaugural was
planned at the presidents direction
to be as simple as the circumstances
would permit, it will not be differ,
ent in general character from the
usual ceremony.
AS customary the president after
he has taken the oath and delivered
his inaugural address on an open air
stand before the capitol will ride
back to the White House at the head
of a parade of many thousands in
Guiding distinguished representatives
of the land military and naval or
ganizations and n long line of dele
cations of private citizens. Then he
will review the marchers from a
stand before the White House
grounds.
One feature, however, will reflect
directly the gravity of the interna-
tional situation. Down Pennsylva-
mia avenue the parade will pass be-
tween lines OF National Guardsmen
chosen from the New York regi-
ments forming military barrier on
either side of the line of march. Not
since Lincoln's second inauguration
during the Civil war have troops
been stationed to keep spectators
back from an inaugural parade.
Tonight the president had not
completed his inaugural address 1t
has been expected that recent devel-
opments in the international situa-
tior will have large place in it and
tonight it was believed that the SEN
ate's failure to reach vote on the
armed neutrality bin might be one
of the points on which the president
will dwell in outlining his policies
for the coming administrations
The cold, misty rainstorm which
began yesterday kept up throughout
today its insistent attack on the al
ready bedraggled flags and buntings
in which the capital city has dressed
itself.
No hope for fair skies tomorrow Is
held out by the weather bureau.
Clearing weather had been promised

OATH OF HIS OFFICE
Continued from Page II

"Mr. President, l am very, very
happy"
Members of the cabinet then
crowded up with expressions of re-
gard. Mr.. Wilson received them with
a smile and then turned back to his
desk to complete his interrupted
task
Tomorrow the president will take
the oath again on the inaugural stanu
before the capitol.
Vice President Marshall who did
not take the oath today, will be
sworn in for his second term tomor-

EDISON:
In Appeal to Amer leans to
Buy the United States
Liberty Bonds.

NEW YORK, May 29-Apart from
what lie has done 10 encourage the
thousands of workers in his West Or
anse. y. j., plant TO buy Liberty bonds
Thomas \. Edison today spared few
minutes from his laboratory tasks TO
tell Americans what he believes their
duties are in the war. The citizen
who buys a bond he said, pays the
first premium on an insurance policy
against the death Of democracy.
"Or1e thing is sure the inventor
declared. The minimum service any
of US can render America and the de-
mocracy Of the whole world is to buy
Liberty bonds. The loan should not
only be fully subscribed. it should be
oversubscribed. No government in tho
history of the world ever asked money
for nobler purpose. To buy bond
is TO pay the first premium of an No.
surance policy against the death OF
democracy, against brutal Prussian
militarism. against future wars with
their resultant deaths and sorrows and
horrors"
"Mr. Edison asserted "The spirit Of
1917 in America should be spirit Of
pay what It's worth to you to be
an American citizen" he added. Fig
ure it cold bloodedly II you are built
that way. Consider what this country
has meant to you. what 1t will mean
to your children and to humanity IN,
future generations. Then when you
have thought over these things. take
pen in hand and do your bit for the
Liberty loan
Mr.. Edison said the uppernost idea
should be how TO serve the common
country. and There Is a niche for AZ
most ali of ,ls II we will but look for
it with patriotic eyes
Among subscriptions to the loan to-
