 Washington Wakens. Washington. long used 70 slitterins processions. opened its eyes and cheered itself hoarse at the spectacle. For two hours, while in other cities throughout the nation over thousands moved over the first part of the long road that may lead to French battle fields, Pennsylvania avenue heard the tramp of marching men, the jingle of spurs and the rumble of artillery. Many in Parade. About 26,0O0 men, women and child ren passed a reviewing stand before the White House where the president and his guests watched the parade. More than half of the long line was in uniform. There were regulars from infantry, cavalry and artillery real emnts stationed nearby, marines, men from the officers trainin, camp at Ft. Myer. and hundreds of army and naval officers attached to tic departments here.
 Stars and Stripes Wave.
 The Stars and Stripes waved from the reviewin gstand. from the build ings along the broad avenue. from the head of every unit and in the hands of most of the civilian marchers. From the corner of Fifteenth stree. where Pennsylvania avenue turns around the treasury. the long mile to the foot of Capitol Hill was one stream of flags. The president and these in the stand with him were keps ct sa- lute constantly.
 President Leads March President Wilson himself. eyes 10 the front. stepping out like a freshly trained recruitfi marched at the head of the long line surrounded b. a com mittee of citizens who arrange the parade. Behind him in uhOroken ranks came most of the members or the senate and house in such a tribute as they probably never have given on any occasion in the long years since this country became a nation
 Wilson Enters Stand When he reached the White House | hn 1nf hn Ia I eerr his place in the stand beside Mir. Will son. It was the second time he had gone afoot over Pennsylvania avenue.

 Khaki Dominant Note.
 For more than an hour the food tsas poured by the stand was in the 0rcNn of the khaki clad army. with the ex- ception of the 1400 drafted men. whO in spite of their civilian clothes mach ed proudly and with more than a sem blance of military formation.
 Marines Attract Attention.
 In all the long line the drafted men and the marines attracted the most at- tention at the reviewing stand. The 1900 young men who are in training at Fort Myer for commissions in the new army. with only 12 days of dlE behind them. swung by the stand with the easy tread of trained soldiers. The marines, company after company, swept past with never a ripple to dis turb their steady flow.
