TAKE UP ARMS IN
NATIONS ARMY
Continned from Flrst paee.

The band, supposed TO be at Six
teenth and King streets in time TO lead
the men, was late in arriving. and the
procession Of new soldiers started with
out that inspiration that music alone
can give. They marched up French
street and when they reached Twelfth
street the bandsmen loomed in sight
and a halt was called until they could
get In the formation.
The cortege, led by Police Sergeant
Devenish and a squad Of patrolmen,
then proceeded up Franch street TO
Eleventh, TO King. to Tenth, TO Market,

coats, those Of Board No. wore a
white flower.
While q regulation has been issued
by the War Department making COM
pulSory the wearing OF brassards, or
arm bands, by all men drafted from the
time they report al headquarters for
instructions until the time Of their ar
rival at camp, the local boards were
unable TO put this in effect today owing
TO the failure OF the brassards TO ar
rive. Board No. 4 Issued 20 their men
when they reported yesterday the usual
white arm hands that in the past have
been issued the men on the day OF their
going away which they required them
70 wear in the place OF the new mod
eled bands.
When the men reported this morning
many were already dressed IN khaki
few were what one might called
dressed up" Most OF them were in
their hsppiesi mood, il seemed, and
there was lacking any feeling against
the military service. When
they assembled. many had with them
their sisters. mothers and others.
Few tears were she'd at the starting
point, but after the procession had
started tears began 10 giisten in the
eyes OF many. All the way along the
march, many were wet eyed despite the
.oud, gay send-off being accorded them
by the large throngs along the street.

md it was a longer wait that they had
expected They had arrived at the
station at 1850 o'clotk. but it was
nearly twelve O'Clock before the train
pulled out.
While the men were upstairs on the
platform, many Of their beloved ones
were downstairs, frantlcally trying TO
get above, In tears. In order TO be able
to be with their husbanrs, brothers and
others, many at the station bought
tickets TO obtain admission to the plat
form.
Fire engines stopped at various points
along the march, sounded their bells
and siren salutes to the men as they
passed, and automobile drivers took
up the salute with their horns and
and loud cheering was in evil
lence everywhere Windows all along
he route were illled with men and
women and boys and girls anxious to /
