TROOP B
NEARING
TACOMA

The long lookedfor Troop B
welcoming parade was finally to
come off this afternoon about
$50.
The streets were all decorated
in gala dress, and many different
organizations were lined up to
march in the parade. The troops
were supposed to arrive from
Olympia about $50.
The state capitol was gaily dec
grated with flags to greet Troop
B and Company A Signal Corps,
when they arrived at Olympia at
1870.
Amidst cheers the soldiers
marched to the state house where
they we're welcomed by Gov. Lis
ter and the legislature In a Joint
session.
Referring to the German cri-
sis, Gov. Lister said:
Il am sure if a call comes, our
national guard will respond and
offer a service of which the
state will be proud.
II hope nothing will occur to
make it necessary to again leave
your homes and firesides
Capt. Palmer of troop B, re-
spending, said:
Eventually the country will
have to come to universal mill
tary training, but until then the
national guard must be a vital
part of our defenses.'
The troop left there at 1.
Early In the afternoon the
Coast Artillery, companies and
s, and the naval militia made
their annual Washington's Birth
day parade. They started from
the armory and marched down the
hill to Broadway, from there to
18th street, down Pacific to 9th,
up 9th to Broadway, from there to
11th and back up the hill to the
armory.
AS many of the Coast Artillery
boys as could get off from work
were planning to march In the
Troop B welcoming parade. They
were to be the escorts. for the
TROOP.
