GRAY AND KHAKI
MARCH TOGETHER

COnfederates In Reunion Parade join
ed by Gen. Lewis and Part Of 5th
division. Reunion Closed with
Grand Ball Last Night.
Atlanta, Oct. 10.-The Confederate
veterans reunion Of 1919 came to a
close tonight with grand ball at the
auditorium armory, but the crowning
feature of the day was the sight OF
the old soldiers themselves marching
in their annual parade.
The remnant Of Lees armies that
marched today was little more than
S,0O0 strong, some in the uniform Of
the old Confederate gray and others
IN civilian clothes. The streets, gaily
decorated for the occasion, were lit
orally jammed with spectators who
cheercd and wept and laughed as the
heroes of the sixties passed in re-
view, many Of them for the last time.
Boy Scouts carried water for the
old soldiers and Red Cross ambu-
lances followed in the wake of the
various divisions, but few of those
who started out to march would ac-
cept ride even though overcome.
Here and there veterans dropped out
OF line and rested on the curb; then
Joined the next division that came
along
The parade took nearly two hours
to pass the reviewing stand, the old
soldiers themselves being almost out
numbered by their escorts of honor,
and members Of the bands that ac-
companed them. The band and the
machine gun battalion OF the Fifth
division Of regulars stationed at Camp
Gordon was one OF the escorts. Local
military schools sent their cadets and
various civic and fraternal organiza-
tions also were in the line. There
were also few representatives Of the
Confederate navy, headed by Admiral
Wright, Of Jacksonville.
General X. Nl. Van Zandt, command

parade, accompanied by Brigadier
Gordon. AS token Of esteem for the

Colonel House spent nearly year

scnting President Wilson in the su-
premc council since the latter'S return
home. With Colonel House were his
wife; Commander Mclean, his person
al physician, and several others who
party at Hotel Crillon.
The colonel would make no state
ment regarding his health except to
say that he was much better" but it
was noticed that friends helped him
down the gang plank when he came
ashore. Passengers said that he rare
ly left his statcroom during the trip
from i}rcSt, and that several times
while at sea his personal physician
called in Captain T.. j. Lee, the ships
surgeon, for consultations. Following
these consultations it was stated that
Colonel House was suffering from a

has been said that can be said on
every vital subject. We sould now
begin to work; work steadily and
tranquilize."
Anxious to reach his home. Colonel
House seemed to be in no mood for
questioning by the newspaper men.
Asked if conditions in IIu rope were
better, he replied:
Yes, at times they are, and then
again il becomes very Disappointing"
Colonel House asked for the latest
reports concerning President Wilson's
Illness.
"All I know is from .hc bulletins
received daily by wireless from the
White House he added.
Because Of the lOngshOrcmen'S
strike, te Northern Pacific was moor

Following the arrival Of Colonel

visited by David Hunter Miller, a per-
sona friend and member of the peace
conference corps Of experts on inter
national questions.
Mr.. Miller said he found the colonel
looking better than he expected
Colonel House told him, Mr.. Miller
said, that a good rest was all he
needed" lie added that no one would
be admitted for an interview, and that
the colonel requested that no one tcle-

Ford
lad Fit

A Ford had a fit on Main street.
Manager Loop. of the opera house
said the Ford didn't have a fit but it
did have the spasmodics. He intended
to say the Ford had spasms. ForGs
sometimes do have spasms as well as
fits, or else the fits have Fords, which
amounts to the same thing. -
But this Ford with the fit certainly
did act strangely. Everybody admit7
ted that much, even those who didn't
own FOrds but who wanted to. IL
acted as if it had eaten too many
green apples or like man trying to
conceal something from his wife. 1t
groaned, and it quivered and trembleG
just too pitiful for anything. 1t had
the sincere sympathy of a large anG
quite interested audience who made
all sorts of suggestions.
The man that owned the Ford with
a fit had hectic or feverish flush OF
his face. He was saying things to
himself under his breath that sounded
feverish, too. He had spent thirty
minutes cranking the Ford, he saiG,
when the fit came on The Ford
seemed to jump into the air, quivered
all over and then just laid down on it's
side and died. Or it seemed to die,
but it didn't. The man said he wished
it would die. But Fords never die.
They sometimes make their owners
die. So it was in this instance. After
while the Ford with fit stopped
groaning and trembling and qlivering
all over. The owner gave the crank a
quarter turn and in a secoud was
making his way through the scatter
ing thrcng, smile on his face and
saying something about there being
no car like a Ford, anywa".
