HOW BIG A CROWD
DOES 800, 600 MAKE?

TT is impossible to conceive OF the vaStness Of
throng of 100000 persons. This number Of
Shrners, exclusive Of all other visitors, win come
to Washington next June for the session Of the Inn
perial Council Of the Mystic Shrine
The following figures will give an idea Of the size
of this throng:
The marching column in the army is column Of
SQUADS with four men abreast and thirty to thirty.
six inches between ranks. The depth" Of man IS
estimated at twelve inches.
Forming the visiting Shriners in such column four
abreast with the ordinary intervals and with no inter-
vas such as exist in the army, between companies,
battalions and regiments how long would this col
umn be?
With the head of the column at the Treasury De-
partment where in your estimation, would the tail Of
the column be? At the Capitol? At Fifteenth and
H streets northeast? At BIadensburg Hyattsvile
or Laurel, Md? All of these guesses would be far
short.
The column would extend unbrOken, every rank
closed up at the proper interval from the in 'front.'
from the Treasury through the city to Bladensburg,
and along the Baltimore pike mile after mile to Balti
more through the city Of Baltimore and for five to
ten miles beyond.

ton, was not organized until June
8, 1876, the history Of the first
years Of Mecca Temple actually
becomes the early history Of the
Shrine.
Billy Florence, in letter which
has since become a part Of the
archives of Mecca Temple, re-
calls that in August, 1870, while
he was in Marseille, France.
he was told of a ceremony Of
unusually attractive character
which was to be held in a nearby
hall. Florence accordingly sought
and was granted admission and
found that the organization was
called Bokhara Shrine and it's
head was the Illustrious Potentate,
Yusef Churi Bey. This man had
been to Bokhara, where he had
been admitted to a meeting Of a
Mystic Shrine" in that famous
city of the Persians. He had
made q hastily written sketch Of
the ritual and laws of the order.
The authenticity OF this story.
however, has been questioned and
IT is claimed that Florence wrote
it, not as fact. but merely as an
imaginative story to explain his
conception of the origin of the
order ne loved.
Four years after the founding
of Mecca Temple the Imperial
Grand Council was organized,
though at that time Mecca was
the only temple in existence. One
OF the first acts Of the council,
however, was to grant q charter

AS each delegation enters the
District it will be met by member
Of Almas Temple, who will take
charge Of getting the party to its
quarters, 50 that there will be no
confusion in getting the mighty
host under cover.

Plans for feeding the multitude
are already being completed, the

EARLY GROWTH.
The first report on membership
was made in 1879 and showed
that there were then thirteen
temples, with 1876 members. With
the early COS the membership
had grown to 1880. It has
since increased steadily to be-
yond the 100000 mark, and, if
the present rate of increase con-
tinues, 1t will not be many years
longer before the 100000 mark
is attained.
So rapid was the growth OF the
Shrine that within twelve years
after the inception Of the idea,
Washington Masons began clam
oring for a local temple of the
order.
A charter was granted to Aln1as
Temple January Z, 1885, and the
temple today numbers more than
5000 members.
Almas Temple, honored by be-
ing made the host at the greatest
session in history, has been &C.
lively at work to bring the com
ing session to Washington since
early last spring, long before the
last Shrine session at San Fran
cisco.
Before the Washington delegaI
ton left here for San Fran
cisco a fund Of 100000. raised

and intention to entertain the

Shrine temples to register for the
coming session, has also been as
signed to quarters in the New
Hamilton and the Lafayette hotels.
Other temples are being assigned
in the order in which they reg
istered.
HOUSING PLAN.
The plan under which assign
ments are being made provide that
each temple shall have headquar-
tiers in a downtown hotel, though
but a half dozen members OF each
temple may be accommodated In
the hotel in which that temple Is
conferred. The uniformed bodies
will then, as far as is humanity
possible, be kept intact in the A.
signing, while the mobiles will be
scattered through the city.
A half dozen Of the temples 30
far registered are planning to make
the trip to Washington In chartered
steamships, which wiz be an
chored in the Potomac and will
be utilized as living quarters dur
ing the session.
The assembling Of the vast
host will take several days. Be-
ginning about June 2 special
trains will roll into the city In one
continuous chain. Thousands OF
cars from every State in the Union
making. up the hundreds Of trains.
The Washington times., 1923-01-14
FIGURES SHOW SIZE
OF SEIRINERS' MEET

VyHE immensely Of the Shrine session to open here
June is shown by these figures:
Three hundred thousand Shrners in attendance.
Two hundred thousand visitors other than ShFners.
Twenty thousand hotel rooms already reserved
Fifty thousand to live in one Pullman city.
Three hundred Pullman cars TO be parked in the
Washington terminal
One hundred thousand rooms in private homes
needed
Thirty five thousand automobiles coming.
Thirty millions of dollars to be expended by visitors
The vast number of Shriners will double the
ordinary quantity of food used by the District. The
following figures are based upon the needs of 100000
Shriners for the FOUR days of the session alone:
One thousand head of cattle.
Six hundred thousand lOaves of bread
Two hundred thousand dozens of eggs.
Three hundred thousand fishes.
Three hundred thousand chickens.
One hundred and fifty tons of butter
One million two hundred thousand cigars.
Three hundred tons Of fresh fruit.
Six hundred thousand quarts of coffee.
One hundred thousand pounds of candy.

pledged. While the San Fran
cisco session was under way and
when discussion Of the next meet.
ing place was taken up, word was
received by the Washington dele
cation at the Golden Gate city
that the local guarantee fund had
been entirely pledged. Word was
received In Washington the fol-
lowing morning that the National
Capital had been selected as the
city for the 1928 session. That
was in June, 1922.
PLANNED EARLY.
In August Alrnas Temple began
to forge ahead with its plans
Illustrious Potentate Leonard T.
Steuart appointed Harry Standi-
ford as his executive chairman.
and headquarters were opened III
the Homer building, in rooms DO
mated by Noble William Montgom
cry, president Of the Acacia Mu-
tual Life Insurance Company.
The Alnlas Temple. Washing
ton, D. c.. 1923 Shrine commit
tee was incorporated with Officers
Of Almas Temple at its head'
and the appointment Of chalrmen
Of the thirty.two committees
charged with preparations for
the coming event was speedily
completed.
The finance committee, Thomas
ID. farrell. chairman, was the
first 70 swing into action. when
Il began the work OF raising a
$3.50 900 fund. Of which 100000
had already been pledged to
finance the coming event. More
than $4,000 of this fund has
already been raised. This record
places Washington months ahead
Of any other city in which the
sessions have been held. At San
Francisco, where the present rec
ord session was held last June
the first subscriptions to the en-
tertainment fund were made but
three months before the session
began.
The hotel and housing commit
tee, Ellwood p. Morey, chairman,
which Is faced by the greatest
housing problem ever shouldered
in an American city, was the
next to swing into line.
TEMPLES REGISTER.
Registration of Shrine temples
for next June began coming In
last August and have continued
steadily since that time. There
are today 119 temples registered,
twenty-five in excess Of the pre-
vious record, made at San Fran
cisco. 1t is expected that 126
to 1870 temples will be register
ed by February l. and all the
plans of the hotel and housing
committee are being based on
this estimate.
There are but 156 temples in
existence, and 65 per cent Of the

nights ride Of Washington. are
forty-eight temples. with mem
bership Of more than 100000.
East of the Mississippi are
eighty four temples, with a mem
bership OF $4,000. or more than
half the entire Shrine member
ship in the world.
The most conservative esti-
mates. based upon actual regis
trations so far received, place the
number of Shriners alone who
will attend the coming session in
Washington at 100000. 1t is ex-
pected that at least 100000 other
visitors will be in the city during
the session. SO that Washington
will be called upon to entertain,
feed, and house at least a half.
million people. equal to the entire
population of the city.
Already every hotel room In
the city of Washington, approx.
mately 10000 in all. has been
reserved for the use of the visit
ors. and the assignment of temples
TO hotels has begun, Despite this
number of rooms and the crowd
ing of from three to ten Shriners
into each room, this will accom-
modate but one fourth of the
total number to come.
PULLMAN CITY.
1t will, consequently, be neces-
sary to house the visitors in spare
rooms in every private home in the
city. Listing of these rooms and
fixing Of rentals will soon begin.
Offers of quarters in numbers of
local schools and colleges having
dormitory facilities have already
been made and accepted. A tented
city, in which many of the $4,000
automobile parties will be housed,
is contemplated. Empty govern
ment buildings will be utilized for
housing space. Many thousands of
Shriners will come in chartered
Pullman cars, which will be used
for living quarters during the ses-
sion. A Pullman city Of $4,000 per-
sons has already been planned for
the big railroad yards near Alexan-
dria. Three hundred Pullmans will
be parked in the Washington
terminal yards. Every foot Of
trackage which can be spared be-
tween Washington and Baltimore
will eventually be assigned.
For the housing Of the imperial
divan, composed of officers of the
imperial council and representa-
tives from each temple, 700 hotel
rooms will be needed. These rooms
have already been reserved in the
Washington and Willard hotels,
and assignments of the members
of the imperial divan to their in
diVidual rooms completed.
