People Stood in Streets All Night to

Men In Parade Led by Americans -
Witnessed by the King.

LONDON, July l9-Nineteen thousand
of allied soldiers, picked from famous
combat divisions, the names of which are
written large on the pages of the history
of the world, marched through London
streets today in celebration of peace. The
line of parade was more than six miles
in length and required over an hour to
pass a given point.
King George with other members of the
royal family, army and navy officers and
leaders of both houses of parliament,
stood on the steps of the Victorian mem
oral in front of Buckingham palace and
received the salute of the warriors. A
magnificent reception was given the
marching hosts
The streets were bright with allied col
ors Spectators jammed every available
point of viewing, the route being black
with cheering thousands. Large numbers
of people stood on the streets all night
to hold places from which the parade
could be witnessed
A few grandstands accommodating

AUTOMOBILES BURN
IN BOSTON STREETS
Caught in a Flood of Naphtha Which
Ignited-Two People Seri-
ously Burned.

BOSTON, July 19.-Wildfire, which
swept over the vicinity of the intersec-
tion of the Massachusetts avenue and
Boylston street at O'Clock last night
after an army truck had crashed into an
auto tank, containing $50 gallons of
naptha, seriously burned two persons,
injured one and damaged Is autos.
Right in the midst of the rush pc
riod at 5.45, when cars going out to
Brookline and beyond, together with
those hurrying over to Cambridge,
were jammed at the busy corner of
Massachusetts avenue and Boylston
street, the army truck struck the rear
of heavy tanker
Immediately a flood of naptha flowed
out from the rear of the tanker. In
10 minutes the contents of the tanker
had spread over a wide area, running
down Massachusetts avenue several
hundred yards, out Boylston street and
toward the railroad trestle.
People took the deluge as more or
less of joke at first, while an effort
was made to get the truck, which was
coming along Massachusetts avenue
from its stalled position on the edge of
the crossing.
Autos with women and children
looked down at the black flood spread
ing over the streets. Some thought 1t
was gasoline and there was much merry
making about the expensive street
cleaner
Suddenly flame shot up. Immediate
ly it spread in all directions. No one
knew Just how the fire started.
A car which was in the center of the
fire, put on speed and plowed through
the flaming oil, spraying the blazing
fluid across the street.
A tremendous cloud of smoke arose
1t all happened in so short time
that the occupants of the car hardly
realized what fiery furnace they were
in.
A big squad of policemen together
with the fireman who responded to the
still alarm at 5.57, rushed to the as
sistance of the shrieking men and WON
en- in the fame-enveloped cars.
In few minutes the whole business
section was-a cauldron with the jammeC
cars, filled with home going men anC
women in the center.

GREATER THAN TITULAR KING
President Wilson Realized He Held
Hluher Position Than Hereditary
Monarch Of Britain.

Man is a queer critter. Apparently
ne loves to make him fetish, crawl in
rront OF 1t on his belly and beat his
Iorenead on the ground In abject sub
mission. Since the dawn of history
men have made and unmade kings as
easily as child makes mud pies. They
nave lifted one Of their number on the
throne. worshiped him, trembled at his
power, kissed his feet and, firing of
MIN, they have often killed him as the
OK Is slaughtered. Again and again
they have proved that kings are COM
mon clay depending for their prerog-
atives solely upon the acquiescence of
their equals, yet the worshiping of roy
al personages as though they were ap-
pointees of the Deity has continued to
this day
The grandfather of the president OF
the United States was an humble sub
Ject OF the mighty British king. The
president sat at the kings table, the
elected representative Of the richest,
most powerful nation on earth. The
president addressed the king. But he
did not say your majesty" or 'syour
royal highness." Knowing that the
elected head Of one hundred million
occupies a more exalted position than
the hereditary, titular and nominal rul-
er OF forty million, knowing the hol.
low emptiness Of royal pomp and trap
pings. knowing the character of the
common clay Of which kings are made,
the president declined by humble
speech to give homage where none was
due, and smashed another precedent
and addressed the king as plain "sir"
and "you."--Sunset Magazine.
