I vention for the first time began to
get unduly noisy ana restless. and
/ coats came off. revealing shirts of all
/ colors and degrees Of cleanliness The
whole convention took on the appear
ance Of a moving picture, with fans
and hats going TO keep the air NOV
| ing. The sweat from 1900 human
bodies began to mingle its odor with
the perfumery Of the women
A big fellow with a big voice
l jumped onto the platform and sug-
gested the singing OF "A Long. Long

Meantime so many assistant ser
geant at arms had got into the press
section that police were called 10 get
them out. They could ST. better in
the press section and an assistant ser
geant at arms only has the Job so he

The song leader tried to start Hail
Hail, the Gangs All Here" but the
convention drowned him again and
took up How Dry Am" The band
switched to the more popular song
and the big song leader was game
enough to switch, too.
Then they started The Good Old
Summer Time" from the floor and the
band and song leader Joined. This
was followed with "Theren Be a
Hot Time in the Old Town Tonight"
again started by delegates.
Plainly the convention did not care
for the song leaders camp songs
The band next swung into a NUM-
Der that always accompanies 'the
grand entry" OF the animals when
the circus comes TO town and the
delegates beat time with their feet.
