With the firing Of a national salute
of q guns at 0 clock this morning,
and the small boy adding to the salute
with his firecrsckers and early morning
patriotism, the citizens of Salem be-
gan the observance of the most plori-
Gus Fourth ever celebrated in the city.
For even at this early hour the
streets were thronged with soldiers,
sailors and marines who came to OBJ
serve a real Homecoming of three days
and who were proceeding to enjoy them
selves without awaiting the more tar
dy good citizen and the official pro
gram.
By 0 o'clock, the general enthusiasm
in the down town district was on. The
streets were iammed and crowded by
thousands who accepted the invitation
to come to Salem and enjoy real live
glorious Fourth
With the gathering of the Cherrians
at the Commercial club, affairs first
began to take on an official appear
ance, for this boosting Salem organiza-
tion, besides being assigned the honor
of escorting the Goddess of Liberty
and her dozen or more Of beauties,
were also assigned the very important
duty of escorting the baby parade at
10 o clock around Wilson park.
The baby parade in Salem has be-
come an established institution and
with so entries for the various prizes,
Court street and the line of march
took on the appearance Of glorified
patriotic kindergarten as the little
ones were wheeled about in the artis-
tically decorated vehicles. And the in
terest was such and the crowds so anx-
ious 10 see the prize youngsters of Sa-
lem, that the Cherrians as official
guards were called on constantly TO
protect their wards.
But the truly great patriotic event
Of the day was the grand victory pa
rade, led by Lieut. Compton and his
hides and the Cherrian band, with the
Jherrians serving as guards of honor
for the famous Salem float, showing
IN its canopy 1916 stars, the number
)f men in the service from Marion
county. And 80 Of the stars were gold.
IN stars.
Everywhere along the line of march
he Salem float with its bevy of beau
-iful maidens was enthusiastically ae-
.laimed aud the Goddess and her maids
# honor and the other lovely maidens
we're kept busy acknowledging with
Iraeious smiles the joyous reception
endered them.
But the most impressive feature was
hat of the two battalions in full mil
iary uniform followed by the sol
Iiers, sailors and marines who had been
n the service.
Round after round of applause greet J
d these young defenders Of America
$ they marched with military preeis-
on and with an assurance that indi-
ated to the by stanaer that the Amer
can soldier felt right down in his
cart that he could lick anything on
arth when it come to a show down.
OF another patriotic interest was
iat of the members of the Grand Ar
" Of the Republic who also began
