onstration At Meeting.

New Orleans.-The throbbiug tread
OF countless thousands on American
Legion parade day echoed the more
morbid tread of war. The cream of
Americas manhood and womanhood
marched joyously, CALAMITY.
The legion marched, living its name.
At stately centotaph the army paus-
ed. A silent throb of undying devo-
ton, deathless pledge to keep the
faith.
At the reviewing stands the legions
of marchers cheered two mcmillan
ford MacNider, the leader who has
become the embodiment of the legion
idea, and Kenesaw Mountain Lands,
spectacular darling of the people.
Twenty thousand were in line, an
endless chain of brave men and beau
t.ful women. For two hours the eye
and the ear were assaulted with con-
slant. throng of Impressions. What
1t meant will never be written.
Backing the 10000 was the power
Of millions, power perhaps greater
in peace than in war. Square with
the legionnaires stood the hundred
million Americans who have learned
to love the men who fought, in spite
of political chickering's which have
brought stain Of ingratitude.
At o'clock the first stand of mass
ed colors, heralded nearly an hour
by the drumming motors overhead,
burst in q blare Of color at the city
hall reviewing stand. Distinguished
guests and laborers felt perhaps more
than ever before the pulling power Of
the glorious Red, White and Blue.
Heroes bore those brilliant flags,
men who have fought for tattered
banners whose torn strands barely
resembled the flags Of yesterday.
Behind the flags were the Medal OF
Honor men, medal tokens glittering
on their breasts and telling the tale
of heroic sacrifice. Some had bodies
torn and shattered, others apparently
had never known the pain of wound.
Every marching man, whether hon
ored with bit of metal or forgotten
In his hour of need, had shed blood
for America. Some gave their blood
through wounds Of war, others drop
ped a tiny bit under the needle of in
oculatfon. Far fetched, perhaps, but
true.
Commander MacNider and his staff
left the ranks at the reviewing stand,
joining the distinguished guests.
Among these were gold star mothers,
foreign soldiers and sailors, Mayor
McShane, members of the commission
council, distinguished women visitors,
Samuel Gompers and Judge Lands.
The parade resumed its resistless
stride. Bands of flaring music and
the roar of drums filled the air. State
after state and nation after nation
exhibited the best of it's citizenship.
Members of the Federation Inter-Al-
lie des Anciens Combattants, who suf-
fered for years before these newer
soldiers brought hope and victory,
were In automobiles. Many Of these
men could not have walked, the
wounds they suffered have left their
bodies frail.
