INAUGURAL PAGEANT
BY ALEXANDER R. GEORGE.
WASHINGTON to Hoover

Bob Pinkerton returned home from
the Capital with another feather In his
cap, claiming a large share Of the credit
for keeping the city clean of thieves
during the Inauguration.
The mems fashion editor Of the New
York World thus described the Spring
style trend:

his grandson to the dining room, where

The centerpiece was a plat of ferns on
which were two flags crossed. while at
each plate were rush baskets of bon

About the table we're big dishes Of

occasion in the form of little chicks

after eight years on the other side.
America was a novelty. 1t Is true,
though, that few Americans remain
to die in Europe.
One of our recent American arrivals
went to France during the war. He rose
to the rank of a French colonel and in
1918 was engaged in the job of hopping
up the enemy in the air. After the
armistice. he remained in France, ac-
uuired the language and settled him
self, as he believed, for life. Occasion
ally he travelled to London or to the
Riviera and saw folks from home. The
young women with whom he associated
were natives of the countries he visited
and he raved over them. Now he Is
home again, where he married an Amer
lean girl.
Shortly after 1920, the chief mixer
in a we'll known hotel sailed for Lon

ture and declared that he was through

been offered a right good job in one of
the British capitals finest hostelries,
to shake them up for the tourists.
After six years he wants to come
home. I'D be willing to pour sarsa-
parilla," he said sadly. IF could go

job keeps him abroad.
A young man was appointed CONT

insisted on going out on the open por-

the multitude which had stood for
hours in the rain to see the ceremony.
One of the most picturesque figures in
the parade was the chief marshal, Gen
Beaver, the one-legged and handsome
Governor of Pennsylvania, who rode his
horse, hat in hand, with the rain trick
ling down his powerful neck.
Although the rain marred the parade
festivities, the inaugural ball in the
huge pension building was a brilliant
affair attended by $4,000 persons. Mrs.
Harrison and Mrs. Levi P. Morton, wife
of the Vice President, wore brocaded
gowns of American manufacture, and
John Philip Sousa, leader of the Marine
Band. composed a presidential polo

The Sidewalks of Washington

"Give them time. They all come
home to roost.'
The speaker was a man who had
parked his hat and coat in every known
corner of the globe. Actually it was a
retort courteous to an observation that
there was only one place in the world
where life provided a generous bounty
of pleasure Europe, of course. Where
gaiety was queen and abandon was
crown prince. Where the achievement
of frolicking Is reduced to an art and
tenseness of existence is stranger to
its people.
