the ramp to the box he was accorded
an ovation. The Army Band played
Hail to the Chief" as he took his place
in his box. Awaiting his coming was
Mrs Roosevelt, who had arrived Is
minutes before him, driving her own
blue roadster and accompanied by q
family party.

of the performance with members of
his family, as well as to Col. Harry N.
Cootes, commandant of the post and
general chairman of the event. Seated
next to the President on his right was

its phases-palm reading, tea leaves
cards and what not and rubbing shoul-
ders with famous seers in her research,
will reveal the past, present and future
in canny manner. Mrs. James Crawford
and Mrs A G. McClintock will sell Gig
